White Horse Comes Out of Sichuan
Another day.
Hong Wutian and the other two returned to Shaowu County and asked to see Zhao Dongting in the backyard of the government office.
Zhao Dongting was practicing Guiyuan sword technique in the courtyard. When he heard that several people came back, he hurriedly asked the soldiers to invite several people in.
As soon as Hong Wutian and others showed up, he asked, "Everyone, how about it?"
Yuan Zhenzi grinned and said, "Zhang Kui Temple has already bowed his head."
Zhao Dongting looked at everyone and saw that they were all safe and sound, nodded with satisfaction. The nine Zhenwu realm powerhouses did not disappoint him.
It’s a bit of a pity that among these nine people, Yuan Zhenzi, Yuan Lizi, Yuan Chunzi and Yuan Xiuzi, are destined not to help him by his side forever. After all, they are Taoist priests.
However, Longhu Mountain does not look like Quanzhen Sect. They always just stand by and watch the worldly disputes.
After asking a few questions about Yuan Zhenzi and others' storm in the government office, Zhao Dongting stopped asking more questions, leaving a few people to eat in the courtyard.
The death of Zhang Kui Temple made him feel a little relieved.
Later, Xi Wuliang and others were overjoyed when they learned about this.
However, the next day, there was a scout bringing back news that the Yuan army had set out from Guangze, and was heading towards Shaowu County.
Xi Wuliang, who received the news, hurried to the backyard to ask for Zhao Dongting. Zhao Dongting was also confused when he learned the news, "Is the Yuan army coming to Shaowu?"
Xi Wuliang nodded with certainty, "Report to the emperor, this is the news that the scout in the army has just reported back."
Zhao Dongting frowned and muttered in his heart, "Is Zhang Kui Temple not dead?"
Immediately, he said to Xi Wuliang: "Go and invite Yuan Zhenzi Tianshi and others over."
Xi Wuliang took the order and left.
Zhao Dongting had never thought that under the deliberate guidance of Yuanwu Enterprise, the Yuan army would choose to attack Shaowu in order to protect itself.
When Xi Wuliang and Yuan Zhenzi and others arrived, Zhao Dongting asked directly: "Tianshi, has Zhang Kui Temple really bowed his head?"
Yuan Zhenzi didn't understand the meaning and replied: "Zhang Kui Temple was killed by me personally, so it should be correct."
Zhao Dongting frowned and muttered, "Since that's the case, why did the Yuan army still come to Shaowu in such a hurry?"
As he said that, a light suddenly burst out in his eyes, "Do they want to avenge Zhang Kui Temple?"
Then he looked at Xi Wuliang, "Mr. Xi, please quickly send the whole army to prepare for defending the city. In addition, send a message to General Huang to let his army arrive in Shaowu quickly."
Most of Huang Hua's Tou Tuo Army are in Jianpu. In Shaowu, even if the Guangze Tou Tuo Army has arrived here at this time, the real soldiers are only 6,000. It is almost impossible to have tens of thousands of troops at the moment. The people can help the soldiers handle logistics matters and arrange defense lines, but it is unlikely that they will go to the battlefield with kitchen knives.
The real fight has to rely on the soldiers.
There are no dragon guns or thunders in the Toutuo army. Some are just conventional weapons such as sturdy oil cabinets, chariots, bows and crossbows. Even if they occupy the city, there is actually not much convenience to rely on.
You know, there were gunfire chariots and sky-burning thunder in the Yuan army. This was enough to make the city wall look like nothing.
However, Shaowu County still has to be guarded.
Further southeastward, there is only Shunchang City, but Shunchang City is not as close to Shaowu as Guangze is to Shaowu. If Shaowu is lost, the Yuan army on the West Road of Jiangnan has enough space to lay a foundation here. At that time, logistics supply will continue to be transported from the east and west routes of Jiangnan to Fujian Road. It will be difficult to drive away the Yuan army.
The Song army still in Guangxi is beyond reach. Not to mention that it is still recovering its vitality at this time, even if it comes to Fujian Road, it will take time.
Furthermore, even if you can come to support, how many can you come?
Now, not only does Guangxi have other forces that have not been conquered. On the west side of Guangnan West Road, Dali is eyeing him.
Dali alone has made Zhao Dongting dare not easily mobilize Yue Peng, Zhang Hongwei, Su Quandang and others from Guangxi.
Now Dali's minions have been exposed. No one dares to ignore the strength they possess, whether it is the Song Dynasty or the Yuan Dynasty.
Even Dali's current power is stronger than that of the Song Dynasty. They have been operating Dali and have been in Shu for many years, and they will definitely have hidden power that has not been exposed to the water.
Zhang Kui Temple took the order to go.
Zhao Dongting looked at Hong Wutian and others and said, "Seniors, if you want to defend Shaowu County, you may have to rely on your strength."
Tieli Duan said, "Your Majesty, let's go to the Yuan army and kill him again?"
"No."
Zhao Dongting said, "I know you are very powerful, but if you want to kill the Yuan army, I am still worried about whether you can come back safely. I just want to wait until the Yuan army breaks the city, you can mix among the soldiers and kill the generals of the Yuan army. As long as the Yuan army is damaged, the Yuan army will be in chaos at that time, and our chances of defending Shaowu County will be greater."
The army in this era relies too much on generals and beheading tactics. This move is a tried-and-true panacea tactic.
And Yuan Zhenzi and other peerless strong men in the True Martial Realm are undoubtedly the best candidates to implement the beheading tactic.
When the army is fighting, as long as we avoid the firearm, no one can stop them.
Yuan Zhenzi and others nodded when they heard Zhao Dongting's words. Hong Wutian smiled and said, "Your Majesty will be given to us."
If you really want to be alone against a army of tens of thousands of yuan, even with their ability, you will be really unable to achieve it. But if you want to kill the Yuan army generals in the chaos, it would be like taking things out of your pocket. If you don’t even have this ability in the Zhenwu realm’s cultivation, then you can only say that all the martial arts practitioners in the world were blinded by lard.
Time will not stop because of the actions of the Yuan army, but will still pass quietly.
The tense atmosphere in Shaowu County is getting stronger and stronger.
The soldiers of the Toutuo Army patrolled back and forth on the streets and on the top of the city. Even the people who were not in charge of the matter knew that the war was about to go.
At this time, far away on Kuizhou Road, he was also filled with the aura of war.
At the beginning, Zhang Jue failed to defend Chongqing Prefecture, and was eventually captured by the Yuan army.
The Yuan Dynasty opened up a large area of territory but failed to enjoy it. Khan Mengge died in Kuizhou Road. Therefore, Chongqing Prefecture was unable to escape the end of being massacred.
Millions of people in Chongqing were killed in just over ten days, and the entire Chongqing Prefecture became a dead city.
Now, nearly three years have passed, and finally recovered some vitality. Some people who escaped from the city returned to the city again, but the White Horse Army in Shu came again.
