Liu Ziqiu had imagined countless possibilities as to why Yu Wenjing detained Zhang Shou and others, but he never thought that it was because of Yang Guang's sudden assassination. This news was not only unexpected, but also completely disrupted Liu Ziqiu's plan.
Liu Ziqiu knew history. The real chaos in the Sui Dynasty should be five or six years later, and Yang Guang's death happened in the 13th year of the Great Sui Dynasty. Therefore, he still had plenty of time to slowly prepare. But now that Yang Guang has died, the course of history has changed.
Completely changed.
After Yang Guang's death, the ministers will definitely appoint a new emperor. If the government and the public can work together to support the new emperor, even if the new emperor is just a baby sucking milk, with the current strength of the Sui Dynasty, he can go further. Or even no longer.
Yang Guang, there would have been no subsequent three conquests of Goryeo, and the world would not have been in chaos.
But judging from the performances of Yang Xuangan and Yu Wenhua, this situation is impossible to occur. First of all, Yang Xuangan was charged with regicide. Even if he supported a new emperor, he would only control him as his puppet. And Yu Wenhua
Ji instructing Yu Wenjing to seize military power showed that he had a disobedient heart, but it is still unclear whether this was Yu Wenjing's own intention or Yu Wenshu's instruction.
The incident happened suddenly, and Liu Ziqiu had no time to formulate a new plan. However, four years of special forces career gave him super adaptability. Almost as soon as he heard the news, Liu Ziqiu silently made three decisions in his heart.
The first decision is to try to maintain the stability of the 40,000 troops stationed in Xihai County. The soldiers of this army come from all over the country. They are in Xihai, but they actually care about their hometown. Once the news of Yang Guang’s assassination reaches the military camp, the morale of the army will be in chaos.
It is impossible for a large number of soldiers to flee. If this happens, Murong Fuyun, who has fled far away, will definitely come back.
The second decision was to move the newly merged tribe into Weiding City. Although Liu Ziqiu was not elected as the leader of the new tribe until last night, he believed that the loyalty of these simple herdsmen to him was unquestionable.
It is also the only force that Liu Ziqiu can fully control, and it is even more reliable than the two hundred soldiers under his command.
The third decision is more direct and urgent, which is to take control of Weiding City, capture Yu Wenjing alive, and try to extract as much information from him as possible.
"Bring everyone into the city? Why?" Tuoba Qianyu didn't know that Liu Ziqiu had already made three decisions. She was quite puzzled that Liu Ziqiu wanted to bring everyone into the city. These people are not Han people, nor
They are not the Dangxiang Qiang people who work part-farming and part-grazing, but the nomadic people who live in pursuit of water and grass. Their home should be on the grassland, so why go to the city?
It will be dawn soon. After dawn, it will be much more difficult to attack the government office and capture Yu Wenjing. Despite this, Liu Ziqiu patiently explained: "I promised everyone that I will let them live a good life. I want to
In order for them to live a good life, they must provide the most abundant water and grassland. Qianyu, you should know where the most abundant water and grassland is in Xihai County?"
Tuoba Qianyu said without thinking: "Of course it is by the West Sea Lake."
"Yes! The most abundant water and grassland is around Weiding City!" Liu Ziqiu said with a smile, "So I asked everyone to come into the city. Weiding City will be the tribe's permanent camp!"
"Brother, you are so awesome! You have only been here a few days, and you already know where the best water and grasslands are!" Tuoba Qianyu's face was full of admiration, but he soon became dejected, "But these grasslands have always been
It belongs to the Xianbei people."
Of course Tuoba Qianyu knew that Murong Fuyun had been beaten away, but there were still many powerful Xianbei tribes, such as Murong Kuaxing, who had more than 5,000 households in his tribe.
"I have seen it on the general's map, so I naturally know where the best pastures are." Liu Ziqiu chuckled and said, "As for the Xianbei people, the imperial court will not allow them to appear around Weiding City."
In fact, the map provided by Zhang Shou was very crude. Even the roads and names were unknown. How could he know where the best pastures were? This was all told by Xiang Li Qingtian when he accompanied Liu Ziqiu around Xihai County a few days ago.
His Liu Ziqiu not only knew that there was the best pasture here, but also knew that Murong Kuaixing had led his tribe to move to the west.
Of course, Liu Ziqiu would not tell Tuoba Qianyu these things. Women are emotional animals and always like to play tricks. Tuoba Qianyu is also a woman. If she hears that she and Xiang Li Qingtian are at the West Sea Lake
After playing for a few days, I became jealous and annoyed, and pestered myself around. Wouldn't I miss something important?
In fact, Liu Ziqiu's worries were all unnecessary. The IQ of this happy little woman who had just tasted love for the first time had already dropped to a negative number. Even if Liu Ziqiu told her that the moon in the sky was square, Tuoba Qianyu would never doubt it. Liu Ziqiu's
There is an obvious loophole in the explanation. The emperors of the Sui Dynasty were all dead. How could the imperial court continue to pay attention to the situation in Xihai County for a while?
Tuoba Qianyu is not an ordinary party girl. She is Tuoba Mumi's daughter. She is beautiful, intelligent, bold and careful. Although she is young, she has already helped Tuoba Mumi do many important things. She should have such an obvious loophole.
She had discovered it a long time ago, but she still nodded frequently and happily brought more than a dozen knights back to the camp.
…
This time when he forced his way into Weiding City, in addition to the two hundred girls, Liu Ziqiu also selected five hundred experts from various tribes. One hundred of them hid under the belly of the horse and entered the city gate, while the other four hundred hid far away.
Outside the city, they thought they were receiving support. As soon as Tuoba Qianyu left, Liu Ziqiu led the one hundred warriors to kill the government office.
There is not much time left for him. In addition to the two thousand garrison troops in Weiding City, there should be a large number of government officials and police officers. Once these people become alert after dawn, they will cause even greater trouble, so Liu Ziqiu can't wait any longer.
Backup from outside the city.
As for the two hundred girls, they were left behind. Liu Ziqiu was quite chauvinistic. There was bound to be a battle of swords and swords in front of the government office, and women were meant to be pampered. Unless absolutely necessary, Liu Ziqiu did not want them to experience the bloody storm. However, if
It would be a mistake to think that the role of these girls is only to deceive the city gates into opening. These girls are armed with a soft bow and a flask of feather arrows. They are quite capable of guarding the city gates and guarding prisoners from a high position.
The government office of the Governor's Mansion of Xihai County is located in the center of Weiding City, which was originally the palace of Tuyuhun. Although Tuyuhun was poor, the palace was built quite impressively, and the palace walls were three feet longer than the walls of Weiding City.
A hint of exposure has appeared in the east, and the gate of the government office is still closed, with only two red lanterns emitting dim light. Liu Ziqiu left ten people guarding both sides of the gate. These ten men were disguised as Sui soldiers, wearing military uniforms.
They were stripped from the corpses of Jiang Da's men, so they could be fake. They were guarding outside the government office, and their mission was to prevent others from entering the government office to report the news. Another forty warriors were assigned to various intersections, and their mission was
Try to delay reinforcements in the city as much as possible.
The tall courtyard wall of the government office was not an obstacle at all in Liu Ziqiu's eyes. He took two steps back, made a running motion, jumped up with all his strength, and kicked his left foot on the courtyard wall. His whole body jumped up a little higher, and his right foot
With another push, his hands reached the top of the wall. A kite turned over, and Liu Ziqiu was already standing firmly on the top of the wall. The tribal warriors guarding outside the wall were all stunned by Liu Ziqiu's skills. No wonder Tumu
Lu Hui would regard him as the incarnation of the Leopard God. Even the ferocious and swift Golden Leopard cannot match his agility.
At this time, a long rope was already hanging from the top of the wall. The tough warriors climbed up one by one with scimitars in their mouths, and soon disappeared behind the courtyard wall.
This is the back office of the Taishou Mansion, a garden of the Tuyuhun Palace. However, the weather is very cold, the grass and trees have not yet turned green, and the ground is covered with a thick layer of snow. However, the main roads in the garden are clean, obviously just now
Cleaned.
Houya is usually a place where family members live, but Liu Ziqiu knew that Yu Wenjing's family members should all be in Luoyang and could not come to Weiding so quickly. And based on his understanding of Yu Wenjing, this guy might be good at eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling, but
There is absolutely no leisure and elegance to come to this desolate garden to enjoy the snow scenery.
Liu Ziqiu suddenly became alert and made a gesture behind him to tell everyone to hide in the dark, while he moved forward alone holding the Mo Dao.
Sure enough, on the path ahead, two young maids were struggling with big brooms to sweep the snowflakes on the road to both sides. It didn't snow last night, these snowflakes were just snow on the branches blown off by the wind. In fact, there was no snow at all.
Does not affect traffic.
One of the slightly fatter maids suddenly stopped, rubbed her hands that were red from the cold, and muttered: "What's the big deal about just a few snowflakes? They force us to sweep the floor early in the morning every day, which makes people uncomfortable.
"
Another maid who was slightly thinner quickly whispered: "Be gentle, don't dare let Alang hear it. Madam brings the young master over to watch the snow every morning. If we fall somewhere, Alang won't skin us."
That’s weird, let’s get to work quickly.”
Although these two maids were wrapped tightly, Liu Ziqiu could still tell that they were both Han women. There were many Han people living in Xihai County, most of them were businessmen, and some were plundered slaves, but in
During the reign of Murong Fuyun, the status of the Han people was very low. These two maids had tender skin and pretty faces. They obviously lived a good life and did not need to do any heavy work. The Han people who were born and raised in the West Sea did not receive such good treatment.
Liu Ziqiu was a little surprised when Yu Wenjing brought his wife and children to Weiding City. If it was Yu Wenjing's newly married woman in the local area, it would be impossible for him to even bring out the young master. This move was too fast.
Bar.
Liu Ziqiu couldn't understand, so he stopped thinking about it and jumped out. He cut the thin maid's neck with the palm of his left hand, but the Mo Dao in his right hand was already on the fat maid's shoulder. He shouted in a deep voice: "Tell me! Where is Yu Wenjing?"
