Wang family hall.
The middle-aged man wearing gray servant clothes took a look at Wang Quanhu's face and said, "According to the news that the young master sent back a few days ago, the Nanyi beast tide has moved north in large numbers several times, testing Weiming City's defense line, and even rushed to the city wall several times. I'm afraid the real action will be taken soon. Once the big demon attacks, the unnamed city alone may not be able to resist it... Moreover, this prefect has taken over the military power for several days, and it is clear that he has no intention at all. The purpose of going south to support, now, is to ask Miss Wan'er to take the Meng family and children to avoid disaster and rejuvenate the city, but secretly let her go west to contact the people of Lijun, and even lead Lijun Qingqi into the city, if we don't If you prepare early, there is no guarantee that the young master’s side will be broken...in vain..."
Wang Quanhu sighed deeply and opened his eyes, "Wang Ang, I don't understand what you said. It's just that other families may be able to leave a way out for their children, but my Wang family cannot... ." He looked to the south with complicated eyes, "Not to mention that my Wang family has been a general for generations and guarded the border for Dading for nine hundred years. The laws of our ancestors cannot allow us to do this. Just talk about the current situation, no matter what Hui'er does. As a last resort, Heyu City was eventually destroyed in his hands, so much so that no news could be spread. Millions of people were displaced, whether it was Yongchang's world or Meng's world, or If it had been another family, how could such a huge sin be easily eliminated?"
"The reason why there are still so many old members of my general family who are willing to follow me to this day is because of living those four words.
The loyal king dies." Wang Quanhu shook his head and sighed, "If Heyu City is lost, and even my grandson escapes with so many defeated soldiers without the eunuch's will, the Wang family will be truly finished. It’s completely over.”
The middle-aged man named Wang Ang couldn't help but said, "But that unnamed city doesn't have a large formation, so it really can't be defended!"
"You have to defend it if you can't," Wang Quanhu closed his eyes, and the expression on his face became more solemn and solemn than before, "If my grandson can defend Weiming City until reinforcements arrive under such circumstances, whether it is him or We, the Wang family, may be able to find a new way of living because of this, even if it is far worse than before... If he can't hold the city, so that... then it will be with his life, For my Wang family, I have protected the reputation of the generals for nine hundred years..."
Wang Ang had a worried look on his face, "But in Yongchang today, where can there be even half a reinforcement army? That young master Meng Fan led an army of 10,000 people to shake the mountains and went south. I originally thought he had some Meng character. As a result, when the troops reached Mianjin City, they stopped going south. The new way of living that your Excellency calls is..." He tried to figure out the meaning of Wang Quanhu's words again, and then thought about what he had just heard in this hall. After saying these words, he suddenly said in surprise as if he had understood something, "What do you mean, sir... Weiming City's reinforcements will come from elsewhere?! Lijun?!"
His expression changed again, "Although the prefect of Li County is young and has a desire to resist the barbarians, he is not stupid. Now that the army is approaching Yongchang, he must have the intention of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. How can he help me, Yongchang... .
..."
Wang Quanhu glanced sideways at Wang Ang and shook his head, "You, with all your thoughts, can't compare to that Zhang Yang!"
Wang Ang lowered his head and did not answer.
There was some regret and sadness in Wang Quanhu's eyes, "Yongchang Yongchang is now just two border towns, and there are still countless refugees coming north. Behind them, it is a foregone conclusion that Nanyi will move north in large numbers. Coupled with the crisis, At this point, the powerful people in Yicheng are still fighting endlessly in politics. With such a mess, unless Lu Zu is reborn, what can anyone do?"
Wang Ang suddenly realized, and then his face was filled with shock!
Wang Quanhu exhaled a long breath, and his body became a little weak and he leaned back on the chair, "Our Lord Prefect, since he has mastered the military power, but has not gone south, it was a bit difficult to guess what he was thinking at first. Now, , since Miss Wan'er is mixed with Lijun Qingqi, it is not difficult to guess that since he can't bear this mess, then find someone who can bear it. For the people of Yongchang, It’s not a bad thing.”
Wang Ang stuttered a little, "But...but Yongchang Meng's nine hundred years...this..."
"So what about nine hundred years?" Wang Quanhu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "In today's world, it is not impossible to remove the surnames from the surnames of the princes, so that the descendants will be like the lost dogs, or the entire family will simply become common people. If today's The prefect is willing to surrender that person. With that person's habit of treating such people, it is impossible to say that he can retain wealth and honor for a lifetime, or even continue to be a favor to his descendants. If the current prefect is unwilling to surrender, then a big war will destroy Yicheng.
They’re all beaten to pieces, and I’m afraid they won’t be able to stop Lijun’s army in the end, and then..."
Wang Ang was speechless for a long time, but finally smiled bitterly, "Sir, do you think that the prefect will definitely surrender to Lijun? Doesn't it mean that Yun Bailou of Guangjun is also a thoughtful person, how can he tolerate such a thing?"
Wang Quanhu shook his head, "We can't see many things clearly now. I only know that Yun Bailou will never sit idly by and ignore it, but it's hard to guess what choice this person will make. But now that Lijun Qingqi has entered Yicheng, when It’s more likely that he will leave the county.”
Wang Ang's eyes suddenly condensed, "So many actions of many people in the city last night came from this."
Wang Quanhu nodded slowly, "We can guess such a thing, and Zhao Nanpeng and others can naturally guess it, and even the prefect will leak information to the Zhao family as a test even if he doesn't know it."
The king was angry and surprised, "By doing this, the governor, aren't you afraid that chaos will break out in Yicheng City before his decision is made?"
"Why the chaos?" Wang Quanhu's face looked obviously ugly, "Xu Lin is in the hands of the prefect, and the Mountain Shaking Army is also in the hands of the prefect. Coupled with ignorance, and other people secretly such as Baishou Shan, Except for Zhao Nanpeng, who still has the card Sun Miao of Zhaoshuicheng in his hand, no matter what the other people have in mind, they can't act in a hurry. As for Zhao Nanpeng, this person is very calculating, what will he do in the end? , it’s really hard to say.”
A look of ridicule suddenly appeared on his face, "But he is different from us. He, Zhao Nanpeng, can reach the high position of county magistrate, not because of his military exploits and reputation, but because of the strong connections of the noble families behind him.
The intricate network of relationships is the source of huge wealth and control over civil servants across Yongchang. Now, relying on that Zhaoshui City, even if we die, we still want to at least leave a good name for future generations. And they just want to live, and then rely on some messy things to sell themselves at a good price. Thinking about it this way, the current troubled world may be more suitable for him, but... This Yicheng City will eventually be in chaos..."
Wang angrily asked, "Sir, do you think that Zhao Nanpeng, who followed the prefect to surrender to Lijun, can still be as comfortable as he is now?"
Wang Quanhu thought for a while and nodded, "The prefect of Li County is also an unclear character, but if you want to take over Yongchang smoothly, I'm afraid it won't work otherwise. As for Zhao Nanpeng and the prefect, one thing is certain, he will not I will never have anything to do with the Meng family again."
Wang Ang asked again, "Sir, shouldn't our Wang family also... make plans in advance?"
Wang Quanhu closed his eyes and his voice seemed to be murmuring, "I don't know, I don't know, the world is like this, let's wait and see what God will do."
