Choose three out of ten at the beginning, summon ten gods to dominate the other world

Yu Hualong and Zhang Yang were not mediocre people, so they certainly questioned the legitimacy of Long Tian's order.

However, now was not the time to dwell on this. The reason why the rebellion became more chaotic was because the cities only wanted to protect themselves, which gave the rebels the opportunity to defeat them one by one.

Especially since Yucheng would be the first to be hit, Yu Hualong could not care so much and would first overcome the difficulties in front of him.

As for what Long Tian wanted to do, it was not something that a small city lord like him should worry about.

On the day Long Tian arrived in Yucheng, an order to mobilize troops was issued.

As for the reactions of the cities, Yu Hualong was unsure. Self-protection in troubled times was the norm, and it was unknown how many people would obey Long Tian's orders.

Of course, Long Tian also knew that it was not important how the cities reacted. What Long Tian wanted was the righteousness, the righteousness of commanding the entire rebellion.

This made any action of Long Tian legitimate, and those who did not obey would naturally have time to deal with them later.

The next afternoon.

"Your Highness, the rebel army has arrived." Yu Hualong ran to report.

"How many people are there?"

It was afternoon, and the rebels did not attack the city directly, but set up camp outside the city.

"Your Highness, there are 300,000 of them."

The Yucheng City Guards had 50,000 soldiers. If Long Tian did not come, they would not be able to stop the rebels. After all, the strength of the two sides was not much different.

"Let's go, let's go to the city wall to have a look."

Soon, Long Tian and his party came to the city wall.

In the distance, the rebels were setting up camp.

"Your Highness, this is not right."

Jia Xu said in a low voice, and Long Tian nodded. He also saw the problem.

300,000 soldiers were a sea of ​​people, or a rebellious army, but they were not noisy or chaotic.

What is a rebellious army? A group of mobs and rebellious people who could not survive and had to resist were called rebellious army.

But at this moment, the 300,000 rebellious army formed by the rebellious people outside the city was strictly disciplined and everything was in order. This was not a rebellious army, but a well-trained regular army, but the general strength was low, and almost all of them were first-class warriors.

"Bai Qi, Xiang Yu, order the army to defend strictly, let's discuss countermeasures."

If it was 300,000 chaotic troops, Long Tian believed that he could easily solve it, but at this moment, things seemed not so simple.

Everyone quickly returned to the city lord's mansion.

"Jia Xu, what do you think?"

Long Tian wanted to discuss countermeasures, and did not call the people in Shangyu City. Everyone present was Long Tian's people.

"Your Highness, through today's observation, I am more certain of my thoughts. This rebellion in Zongzhou was premeditated long ago."

Jia Xu said, which was also Long Tian's thoughts.

"Everyone, you might as well guess who is behind this matter."

Long Tian also had a guess in his mind.

So, Jia Xu, Bai Qi, and Long Tian each wrote a word on the table with the wine in front of them.

After seeing it, everyone smiled at each other and confirmed their thoughts.

"Your Highness, the Zongzhou rebellion occurred within a week after the Northern King died in the capital, which shows that this King Wen can't wait."

"I think King Wen knows very well that King Yunshan is impossible to manage Zongzhou. Even if he wants to, Your Majesty will not agree."

"And the Northern Territory is in disarray after losing the Northern King. King Wen secretly instructed that after taking Zongzhou, it is very likely that the next target will be our Northern Territory."

"As long as it succeeds, with two states in hand and more than 3 million elite troops in hand, we can advance and retreat in moderation and wait and see what happens in the Xia Kingdom. That's why we chose to take action."

Jia Xu said that everyone's guess was the same. The instigator behind the Zongzhou rebellion was King Wen Xiao Chenghao. In Zongzhou, only he had such ability.

"It seems that King Wen has reached some agreements with the alliance of various countries, and he took decisive action without any constraints."

"And it was done secretly. In the name of riots, he pushed others to the front and commanded them from behind."

"Unfortunately, King Wen did not expect that this prince would come, and his plan would be difficult to succeed."

The princes of Xia Kingdom, even those from the royal Xiao family, are ambitious, especially in the current situation of Xia Kingdom. The old emperor wants to reduce the power of the vassal states, and it is not just these kings of different surnames.

"Since it is confirmed that it is Xiao Chenghao, we will face more difficulties in the future. King Wen has been guarding the border for many years and entrenched in Zongzhou. I am afraid that many of these people in Zongzhou are his people. We must also be on guard."

"Your Highness, the cities have not responded yet. Whether to send troops and the purpose of coming, we must be prepared."

Jia Xu reminded that King Wen must have a certain degree of confidence if he dares to do it. There must be many of his people among the officials and generals in Zongzhou.

"Cao Zhengchun, you have to keep an eye on Yu Hualong and Zhang Yang. We also have to try to gain control of the Yucheng City Guards."

The people of Yucheng can no longer be trusted. There might be King Wen's men among them, especiallyZhang Yang, the commander of the city guards.

But now there is no evidence, and it is not okay to act on your own, which may easily lead to internal strife.

"Your Highness, there will be a big battle tomorrow, and this matter cannot be delayed, and we have no time to identify it. I suggest that we cut the Gordian knot, show our cards directly, and take over the city guards."

Jia Xu said.

If there is a big battle tomorrow, it will be very troublesome if 50,000 city guards mutiny.

Long Tian thought for a moment and made a decision.

"Order someone to find Yu Hualong and Zhang Yang."

Jia Xu's reminder was right, and there was always a loophole, so we must not be careless.

Soon, the two people who knew nothing came to Long Tian.

"Lord Yu, General Zhang, this prince has a judgment on the chaotic army outside the city, which may subvert your cognition. At the same time, please understand."

Without further delay, Long Tian did not waste words.

"According to my guess, the instigator of the Zongzhou Rebellion was King Wen on the border. The rebels outside the city were not mobs at all, but troops secretly organized by King Wen. The cities occupied by the rioters were just surrendering to King Wen. Even the army outside was the city guards of these cities."

Long Tian laid his cards on the table.

"Your Highness, you can't talk about this. That's King Wen, the emperor's nephew. Once it gets out, we will be in big trouble."

Yu Hualong was startled and said immediately.

It's no small matter to say that King Wen rebelled without any evidence.

"Master Zhang, you don't seem surprised by this."

Long Tian ignored Yu Hualong and looked at Zhang Yang, who was relatively calm.

"Your Highness, it is true that rumors in the world are not credible. Your analysis makes sense, and I agree with it."

"The rebellion in Zongzhou this time was not normal. Not only was there no sign, but more than a dozen large cities were quickly lost, and such a large-scale rebellion suddenly appeared. People without certain abilities and power could not do it at all."

"And in Zongzhou, I am afraid that only King Wen can do all this. In addition, the rebellion outside is not like a mob, but a regular army to cover up the truth. I have suspected it for a long time, but I did not say it because I was insignificant."

Zhang Yang said calmly.

"General Zhang, don't talk nonsense without evidence."

Yu Hualong scolded Zhang Yang, saying that they could not participate in matters involving royal relatives.
