Wei Wuhou

Chapter 718
"Uncle, the matter in the palace has been settled, and the second son has withdrawn his soldiers!" Inside Wang's mansion, a middle-aged man with beard and armor said to Wang Jian

Wang Jian heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time scolded that ineffective Wei Chengze in his heart.

At the beginning, he felt that this son would not be able to accomplish anything, but the Xie clan insisted on helping him to the throne, and this was the reason for the current disaster.

Looking at it now, Wang Jian felt that it was the biggest failure in his life that he did not fight this matter desperately.

However, now that things have happened, it is impossible to start all over again.

"Take care of the palace, and such incidents must not happen again!" Wang Jian solemnly instructed.

The man in armor nodded yes, but was waved back by Wang Jian. He still had a lot of things to deal with at this time.

Now that Wu An is surrounded, it's not for fun that people are panicking. At this time, he needs to calm down even more.

When Wang Jian wanted to calm down, there was news that some people were not calm. Wei Chengze actually led people to storm the Yongming Hall.

Originally, this person was unpopular, but now he still does such things that violate human relations, isn't he digging his own grave!

Of course, Wang Jian immediately sent someone to stop him, not because he missed Wei Chengze, but for his own benefit.

In any case, Marquis Wei is considered a bargaining chip in their hands, and if they can keep it, it may be of great use, and Wei Chengze must not be allowed to mess around.

To put it bluntly, the Wang family is doing this to find a way out for themselves, while being the enemy of the office, and now showing an image of loyalty to the emperor.

Regardless of whether Wei Wuji believed it or not, it was enough for them to believe that they were loyal ministers, so they might be able to protect their family.

But when Wang Jian continued to look at the various reports in front of him, suddenly a person ran from outside, stumbled to Wang Jian and said: "Old Patriarch, it's not good..."

What Wang Jian is most afraid of now is hearing these three words, and not knowing what happened outside!
"What's going on?" Wang Jian put down his work and asked immediately.

The servant said in a panic: "Patriarch, there is a commotion at the east gate. The soldiers below killed the captain above, saying that they want to open the gate to welcome Lord Wu Yang into the city..."

Hearing the news, sweat broke out on Wang Jian's forehead. This is really a leak in the house and it rains all night!

Wei Wuji had only besieged the city for one day, and this happened in the city. It seemed that they still overestimated themselves.

Wang Jian immediately asked again: "How is it now? Can Wei Wuji enter the city?"

The servant said: "No, fortunately General Wang Xu arrived in time, and now he is leading his own soldiers to suppress all the troops under his command!"

Wang Xu is the only general in the Wang family, and now he is in charge of guarding the south gate of Wu'an, which is also the place where Wei Wuji's heavy troops gather.

There was a problem with Wang Xu's subordinates. Normally, Wang Jianjian would call him back and give him a good reprimand, but now he can only hope that the other party can calm down the situation.

In fact, Wang Jian was still a little worried at this time, so he said to the servant: "Go, call the guards... go to the south gate and have a look!"

Because the servant is an old servant, he persuaded him at this time: "Old Patriarch, the swords and soldiers are dangerous outside now, you can't take risks!"

Of course Wang Jian knew this, but he also knew very well that if something happened to the south gate, it would not be safe for him to stay here.

"I understand the truth of what you said, but today is different from the past. It is a time of life and death... Personal life and death are so insignificant!" Wang Jian sighed and said, his indifferent mind is admirable.

"Go, arrange it, and set off as soon as possible!"

The old servant had no choice but to retreat, and he couldn't change what the old Patriarch had decided, so he had to make arrangements.

…………

Inside the South Gate of Wu'an, countless soldiers occupied the place, and the atmosphere was very intense.

Just now, after a dozen soldiers were scolded by the inspecting captain, they immediately drew their swords and killed their boss's boss...

Then, things suddenly turned in an uncontrollable direction. The army, which was already panicked, became even more scattered after it was not controlled by the captain.

This separation is not only in the organization of the army, but also in the hearts of these soldiers.

Soon someone shouted the slogan to welcome Wu Yangjun into the city, and said that if the stalemate with Wu Yangjun continued like this, everyone would have nothing good to eat.

The army, which was already unstable, could hear this, so some people were quickly persuaded, and more and more people left followed the trend.

General Wang Xu soon learned of the chaos of this group of people, so he immediately led his elite bodyguards to the scene, accompanied by several captains and his lieutenants.

After arriving at the scene, Wang Xu realized that the situation was on the verge of getting out of control, and the soldiers who committed the riot were about to rush out of the camp gate.

But at this moment, Wang Xu was a little lucky, fortunately, it wasn't these people guarding the city gate today, otherwise there would be a big mess.

However, the effect of Wang Xu's suppression was not very good. After the two sides quarreled for more than half an hour, there was no result.

This forced Wang Xu to dispatch troops to the scene again to completely control the situation, otherwise the situation would only get worse.

This also increased the number of people on the scene. If one person is not well controlled, it may cause even greater disasters.

The scene became more and more chaotic, Wang Xu couldn't control the scene at all, and few people could hear what he said.

The chaos inside the south gate of Wu'an was soon known by the besieging army outside, and then the outside became restless, and even made a posture of attacking the city.

This really added fuel to the fire, and the chaos at the south gate spread even faster!

Wang Xu's originally calm heart began to panic, and then he ordered his soldiers to start arresting people, and those who took the lead in making troubles should be executed on the spot.

Although the bloody butcher knife shocked many people, it also made more people feel resentful, and the opposing emotions were magnified in invisible places.

"Back back, go back to your tent!" Wang Xu finally said, the scene was relatively quiet at this time, so his words could only be heard.

But few people moved below, and the situation remained in such a strange stalemate, and I don't know how Wang Xu would deal with it.

In fact, Wang Xu really couldn't help it now. Just last night, there were hundreds of soldiers fleeing under him, and the same was true for other generals.

Now it really has come to a desperate situation, not to mention the soldiers below, even Wang Xu himself feels that he can't hold on any longer.

"Back back..." Wang Xu shouted again, but there was still no movement below.

Watching from the city wall, Wang Xu was really out of breath at this time, and he was in no mood to think about anything else.

"If you don't retreat, you will all be executed!" Wang Xu said coldly.

The soldiers below also came out of the battlefield, and they would be shocked by such a simple sentence, but after all, someone slowly took a few steps back.

Seeing this, Wang Xu's anger slowly calmed down. As long as someone backs away slowly, then today's matter will be considered suppressed.

But for the next few days, Wang Xu really has no idea...

But at this moment, the sound of war drums suddenly came from outside the south gate, and bursts of shouts of killing came into Wu'an City!

"Those who descend will not be killed... Those who descend will not be killed... Those who descend will not be killed..."

If it was said that people were in panic before, under the stimulation of the drums and the shouts of killing outside, the mentality of the Nanmen soldiers really collapsed.
