Late at night, a fire inexplicably flashed in the southeast of Wuzhou City, directly lighting up half of the sky.
In Dingxingfang in the southwest corner of the city, at this time, there were bursts of shouts of killing, and flames shot into the sky.
Outside the south gate, in the dense forest on the west side, four hundred soldiers in black clothes and armor stood silently and stared at the city gate in the distance.
Ye Wanwan stood at the front of the crowd, looking at the fire in front of her, her eyes darkened.
Turning back, she looked towards the way she came.
There was not a single soul on the road at this time.
Ye Wanwan couldn't help but show a hint of urgency on her face.
"Saintess, don't worry. Hall Master Lin will definitely be able to take down Chisong Temple. The group of Taoist priests at Chisong Temple can be allowed to fight alone, but if they are allowed to fight head-on with the army, each of them will run faster than a rabbit." A frivolous man said. The sound sounded from one side.
Fang Liyong is the biological son of Fang Fengjin, the master of Muzhou Hall of Tianyin Sect, and the nephew of the late Fang Yunxiu, the master of Wuzhou Hall.
Lin Jie, the deputy head of Muzhou Hall of Tianyin Sect, came from Muzhou to support him a few days ago.
Li Xuan's guess was correct, the Tianyin Sect had indeed transferred people from Muzhou.
He couldn't help it, Li Xuan killed people too cruelly.
Even He Lao, the leader of the four elders, died in Li Xuan's hands. No matter whether the news reached the main altar or not, at least Muzhou could not turn a blind eye.
In the original strategy of Tianyin Sect, they started an uprising in Muzhou, and quickly captured Muzhou, which had been in business for many years. Then they turned southeast and directly captured Wuzhou, and then quickly joined forces with the troops from Hangzhou and Taizhou, all three ways at the same time. Advance together and directly capture the entire Yuezhou.
Then he sent his troops northward, captured Suzhou, Changzhou, and Muzhou, and pushed directly into Yangzhou.
They have a hidden secret in Yangzhou. As long as they take action, Yangzhou will immediately be in chaos.
Although Yangzhou has troops from the three Zhechong Prefectures of the imperial court, under a sudden attack, they have a great chance of taking Yangzhou.
With Yangzhou in hand, even if the Li Tang court wanted to do something, it might be too late.
Among a whole set of plans, Wuzhou is the most important first step.
Once Wuzhou cannot be captured, all subsequent plans will not be carried out.
This is not to say that Tianyin Sect has been forced to a dead end, but compared to Wuzhou, Hangzhou and Quzhou, one is difficult to attack and the other is difficult to defend, so their chances are smaller.
Originally, they had made countless careful arrangements in Wuzhou, but in the end no one knew how it ended up like this.
Ye Wanwan retracted her thoughts and looked at Fang Liyong, who was wearing a gray robe and had a stocky figure, but a hint of frivolity on his face.
Ye Wanwan was a little disgusted and said coldly: "I am not worried about Chisong Temple. It is too far away from the city. Even if the King of Nanchang detects something is wrong, it will be difficult to get support for a while. What I am really worried about is Zhang. Over there, the hall master, is the armory that is rumored to be there."
Armory, the armory of the Qian family in Wuzhou.
Qian Zhuo hid it and used it as an armory for private arms trading.
It is rumored that in that arsenal, there are not only hundreds of crossbows and arrows, but also more swords, guns, swords and halberds, and all kinds of armor, which is enough for them to fully arm a group of people.
By capturing that arsenal, their overall strength will be greatly improved.
"Since Hall Master Zhang has spread the word, she must be confident that she will win." At this point, Fang Liyong smiled confidently and said, "Hall Master Zhang is very capable and will succeed immediately."
Ye Wanwan glanced sideways at Fang Liyong and couldn't help but sneer with disdain.
Zhang Wanyu was originally the daughter-in-law of the Fang family. Now that Fang Yunxiu is dead, the marriage contract has been extinguished, but some people are thinking about it that they shouldn't have.
So shameless.
"But since the city gate was closed tonight, no news has come out from the city. This shows that the King of Nanchang has become vigilant." Ye Wanwan felt an inexplicable worry in her heart.
Thinking of the frightening voice in her heart, Ye Wanwan said in a deep voice: "If Hall Master Lin cannot get the things back from Chisong Temple in time, then every minute that time is delayed, the King of Nanchang's accuracy will be reduced."
The more prepared we will be; if something unexpected happens to Chisongguan, then Hall Master Zhang is our last hope. I don’t want to see that after all the hard work tonight, we will fall short in the end. "
"Don't worry, saint. With the blessing of the goddess, we will be invincible and invincible." Fang Liyong's face was solemn, as if he had extraordinary faith in all this.
The belief in the goddess Tianyin is deeply rooted in the people of Muzhou. They are the most oppressed people in the world.
Only by relying on faith can we be full of hope for the future.
"The grace of God shines on the world!" Ye Wanwan hugged back her hands, pressed her thumbs together tightly, and then slowly raised them up.
Raising it near her eyebrows, a ray of light shot out directly from her fingertips.
Both Fang Liyong in front of him and more Tianyin cultists behind him felt endless peace at this moment.
"Goddess Tianyin, the home of Tianzuo!"
Ye Wanwan's voice slowly sounded in the minds of everyone present.
Countless hearts of devout faith directly diluted the fear of death.
In the silence, a rustling sound suddenly came from the northwest.
The moon is like a thin line dividing life and death.
Hundreds of figures silently merged into Tianyin Heizong from the northwest.
A burly, stocky man appeared beside Ye Wanwan.
"Hall Master Lin!" Ye Wanwan gave Lin Jie a teaching ceremony, and then asked nervously, "How was the trip?"
"I got the thing." Lin Jie took out a long black token with gold patterns from his arms.
Everyone present, especially Fang Liyong, breathed a sigh of relief.
With this token, they can directly capture the Wuzhou City Gate.
"Hall Master Lin, how was your trip?" Ye Wanwan ignored the token in Lin Jie's hand and stared at him directly.
Fang Liyong on the side smiled nonchalantly and said, "My uncle is back, so there is nothing to worry about."
Ye Wanwan still ignored Fang Liyong, but stared straight at Lin Jie.
Lin Jie rolled his eyes at Fang Liyong, then looked at Ye Wanwan solemnly, and said, "The goddess is right to worry. This time the Chisongguan raid did not succeed in killing Wang Fanglin, the reaction of his group of people was even worse. There were many, and they were equipped with bows and crossbows. Under the sudden attack, they still retreated steadily in an orderly manner. If it weren't for the subordinates who led an elite raid to Wang Fanglin's bedroom, I'm afraid even this command arrow would have been snatched away by Qin Ming."
"Why is this happening?" Ye Wanwan still stared at Lin Jie and said in a deep voice: "The information Hall Master Zhang gave us is quite accurate. Under such a quick raid, logically they shouldn't be so orderly. Could it be... Lin Tang Lord, how many enemy soldiers did your group kill or injure?"
Lin Jie was stunned for a moment, but then he said: "About twenty people were killed and forty or fifty were injured. We... our casualties are many times higher than those that Qin Ming looted." These veterans."
Most of Qin Ming's men were veterans who had retired from the battlefields in all directions over the years.
These people have quite strong fighting abilities, and they have a group of nephews and nephews in their area. Together, they have an amazing tacit understanding on the battlefield.
Although He Zheng knew the identities of these people, he could not do anything more. If he showed any signs of abnormality, he would be taken away by Qin Mingsuo immediately.
Don't really think that when Qin Ming took He Zheng out of the city, he completely trusted him.
Some things may not be clear to Li Xuan just after he came to Wuzhou for a short time, but Wang Fanglin, Qin Ming, and Han Jiang were here for a year at the shortest, and even longer.
After being assassinated, Wuzhou's Bing Cao and Fa Cao immediately became suspicious.
However, their focus fell more on Fa Cao, unlike Li Xuan who directly focused on Bing Cao.
Ye Wanwan only found out about these things later. Her status in the Tianyin Sect was already embarrassing.
Putting her thoughts away, Ye Wanwan looked at Lin Jie and finally asked: "Palace Master Lin, do you think this raid will be like an arranged drama..."
"Is the saint saying that Wang Fanglin and the others deliberately set up a trap to let us get this token, and then let us take this token to fight directly into Wuzhou?" Lin Jie looked at Ye Wan with a half-smile. Wan was amused by her thoughts.
"The war is dangerous and there is no way to be careless about this kind of thing." Ye Wanwan sighed inwardly and said, "You two have never dealt with the King of Nanchang. He is a master of conspiracy with a dark, deep and unpredictable mind. Hall Master...to Mr. He, everything fell into his hands. If I had been excluded by Hall Master Fang that day, I might have been unlucky."
When Ye Wanwan mentioned Fang Yunxiu, both Lin Jie and Fang Liyong looked a little unhappy. However, when Ye Wanwan mentioned that she was deliberately excluded, their expressions became slightly better.
Lin Jie's expression finally became cautious, and he said thoughtfully: "If there is nothing strange at all, it's not necessarily true. After all, the Saintess also knows the strength of the black pawns. In a sudden surprise attack, he only killed so many people at once. It’s really hard to explain, but if it’s really a trap, it’s not necessarily true. After all, more than 20 soldiers are really dead, and we are really back.”
"Yes, Saint, if this is really the case, then what is King Nanchang planning? Are you afraid that we won't be able to kill him? Don't forget, there are still many of us in the city." Fang Liyong said. He looked in the direction of Wuzhou City.
On the southeast and southwest sides, a fire has been ignited.
No matter what kind of plot Li Xuan had, after all, the plan could not keep up with the changes.
Ye Wanwan finally felt relieved, but she still said cautiously as usual: "Even so, we still have to follow the original plan. Before any news is spread in the city, we will open the door at the predetermined time. City gate."
"It should be like this." Lin Jie responded directly, raised his head to look at the fire on the city wall, and said softly: "It should be soon. The grain depot and Dingxingfang are proceeding according to the plan. As long as Hall Master Zhang and the others can find The Qian family has a private armory, so after we attack the city, we can immediately arm a large number of people."
People, what Tianyin Sect lacks most is people.
The existence of believers is the basis for their rebellion.
Once there are no believers, they are powerless.
This is why Fang Yunxiu has been thinking about getting rid of Li Xuan.
Ye Wanwan did not respond to Lin Jie, but looked at the city in the distance calmly, waiting for the war to begin.
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly, a beautiful firework shot into the sky.
In an instant, everyone in the woods stood up at the same time.
The hilt of the knife is held tightly.
