According to the speculations of Wu Qi and his men, Zhao Cheng occupied Lianshan, and what he wanted to capture later was not Wucheng, but Tianjueguan.
As long as the heroes obey the emperor's order and attack Taoist Huang Tian, then Taoist Huang Tian will be defeated and his troops will be scattered. At that time, Zhao Cheng can completely prepare Huang Tian's secret edict, pretend to pass on the legacy, and gather Huang Tian's remaining troops.
Ambitious, capable, decisive, ruthless, and only in this way can he be consistent with what Zhao Cheng did after joining Lianshan.
As for five thousand people taking Wucheng, this is a joke. The wall of Wucheng facing the Lianshan Mountains is more than ten feet high. If converted into meters, it is more than fifty meters. When it was built, the original King of Wu even
Used Taoism.
The thickness of the Wucheng wall is more than five feet, nearly twenty meters.
As for the city gate, the city gate of Wucheng is a large iron gate cast in one piece. In order to cast this thing, I don’t know what benefits the King of Wu promised, but he actually asked a resident immortal to use Taoism.
, and then it was produced.
This is also the reason why King Wu thought that with such an iron city, the Southern Wilderness would be consolidated forever and last for thousands of generations.
But history has proven countless times that the strongest fortress can always be broken from within, and this is naturally the case in Wucheng.
Wu Qi naturally didn't think that with his control over Wucheng, anyone would open the city gate for Huang Tianjun.
Compared to Wucheng, Tianjueguan is easier to buy, but its quality in all aspects is far inferior to Wucheng.
Wu Qi's anger towards Zhao Cheng was no longer based on Wu Cheng's words, but on Wu Yuan who was killed by Zhao Cheng. Indeed, he had no evidence to prove that Wu Yuan was killed by Zhao Cheng.
But looking at the entire Lianshan, only Zhao Chengyou has this ability. In this case, it can only be him.
He doesn't need evidence to make a conclusion.
In fact, if it weren't for the Feng and Chen families in the Southern Wilderness, who kept making little moves for him, which not only strained his mental energy, but also made him dare not act rashly. If not, he would have gone into the mountains to suppress the bandits long ago.
.
The Zhao bandits in the mountains are naturally difficult to suppress. The cost is high and the harvest is low. Even if they are captured, the mountain people are difficult to manage and taxes are difficult to collect. Unlike those cities and counties, as long as they are captured, there will be a lot of money.
Money, food, and most importantly, population.
With the population, various resources can be continuously created, including soldiers and horses.
This is also the reason why, even in the heyday of the dynasty, the court turned a blind eye even though it knew that there were mountain people who were dissatisfied with the king's rule. It was because the costs and benefits were not directly proportional.
However, although Wu Qi knew this, every time he saw various news coming from the mountains, how mysterious, mighty, and heroic General Yingtian was, his heart felt like it was being stabbed by a sharp blade.
puncture.
The better and smoother Zhao Cheng develops, the more painful he will be.
For example, at this moment, when he heard the news that Zhao Cheng had ordered troops on the battlefield and had the appearance of a master, his heart ached to the extreme.
In a daze, a picture of Wu Yuan, covered in blood, staring at him with his eyes wide open, seemed to appear before his eyes. He seemed to be complaining about why he didn't save him or avenge him.
"Mr. Wen, if I want to go out of the city to suppress the bandits, how many troops will I need?"
Suddenly, Wu Qi's hand with bulging veins loosened his grip, but there was a sudden flush on his face.
The sun is strong and the sky and the earth are lonely. Standing on the high city wall, you can see the vastness of the clouds and mountains in the distance. But up close, you can see that the buildings in the city are neat and uniform, with people coming and going, a bustling scene. As the owner of this place, standing
Here, looking at my own territory, I should feel happy and happy.
But at this moment, Wu Qi's heart was turbulent. He clearly owned such a vast territory, and his soldiers and horses were even more powerful and brave. With three thousand tigers and leopards riding on them, they were invincible. Even those who were as powerful as the God-Slaying General were killed by him.
The head was removed.
When the old hero died, it was supposed to be the time for the new hero to appear, but he no longer had any pride, only fatigue and weakness.
His bravest son was dead, and his enemy was in the mountains in front of him, but he couldn't do anything.
"My lord, if we want to suppress the bandits, we will need at least 30,000 soldiers and horses, and with these 30,000 soldiers and horses, we must make a plan that will not be unified..."
Mr. Wen immediately bowed down. He knew that his lord was not in a good mood right now, so he did not try to dissuade him. At this time, the more he tried to persuade him, the angrier Wu Qi would become, so he could only explain the pros and cons.
And his words are not exaggerated in the slightest.
There are so many places in those mountains that can be used to ambush and set traps. In terms of danger, they are even more dangerous than Wucheng.
Thirty thousand elite soldiers entered the mountain to fight to the death. Even if they were able to suppress the bandits in the end, they might not be able to kill the bandit leader.
Wu Qi closed his eyes when he heard thirty thousand. He was also the one leading the troops and knew that what Mr. Wen said was true.
If not, there would be no such thing as an end to trouble.
He can naturally take out 30,000 people, but once the damage reaches the mountains, the Feng and Chen families will definitely seize the opportunity and show their fangs to him.
And if he were defeated, not only would he die, but his family, his tribe, his wife, concubines, and several children would also die.
For a moment, Wu Qi really wanted to wave his hand bravely, raise his troops into the mountains, and kill everyone with their heads rolling.
But in the end, all the things he wanted to do with his own small family and current foundation just turned into a long sigh.
After sighing, the redness on Wu Qi's face dissipated, and his whole person seemed to be a little older.
After a long time, Wu Qi said: "The banditry is nothing to worry about. I wonder if our city is strong?"
"Mr. Wen, we need to pay more attention to the movements of the Feng and Chen families. I received a secret report that Sima Shang, the counselor of the Feng family, has gone to the Chen family's territory. I think he is discussing the alliance. This matter must be done in advance.
Destruction, if the two of them successfully form an alliance, the follow-up will be very troublesome."
"Furthermore, you pass the order and say that I want to recruit a son from the Wu family to inherit the family business. You have people screen it to find a few outstanding talents and let them join the army. Who can make meritorious service?"
, I will give my family property to whomever..."

On the other side, deep in the mountains, Zhao Cheng was walking through the mountains and forests with only a few important figures from the Ying Tian Army. Among them, Lin Yi and Wei Ye were prominently among them.
Although these people didn't know why Zhao Cheng left the military camp at this time, they still followed him silently.
Among them, Lin Yi is just that. His relationship with Zhao Cheng is mainly superior and subordinate, but Wei Ye has been Zhao Cheng's personal soldier for a long time, and now he has been entrusted with important tasks. But now, for Zhao Cheng, Wei Ye
There is only awe in the wild, and there is no slightest contempt due to familiarity.
Subsequently, several people went up to a high ground. This high place was very open and had an unobstructed view of everything below. Looking at this scenery, Zhao Cheng first said with emotion: "On a clear day, seeing the red clothes and plain clothes is particularly enchanting. The ancients sincerely said
Don’t bully me.”
"The country is so beautiful that it makes heroes bow down."
After feeling impressed, Zhao Cheng changed the subject and said, "Do you think Wu Cheng is strong or not?!"
Several people didn't know what Zhao Cheng's words meant, but nowadays in the army, there are not so many twists and turns, and these people don't have so many tricks. Therefore, Lin Yi, who is most respected now, immediately told the truth.
Shi said: "Of course it is indestructible. The so-called golden city is strong. If you want to capture this city, I am afraid that you can only do it at the expense of human lives."
In fact, when 50,000 Huang Tian's troops entered the Southern Wilderness, these 50,000 were just the vanguard army, and there would be reinforcements later. However, the vanguard army was directly defeated, and nothing happened after that.
Even Taoist Huang Tian never thought of taking Wucheng directly with 50,000 people.
"What do you think?!"
Zhao Cheng asked with a smile.
"General Lin is right."
The other people saw and asked themselves and nodded immediately. What Lin Yi said was what they thought.
In fact, they didn't think Zhao Cheng really wanted to take Wucheng.
Only those soldiers at the lowest level, who have been brainwashed by those ghosts and gods, will think that Ying Tianjun is omnipotent.
"Look over there."
Zhao Cheng pointed to a small hill in the distance.
"Look at my Taoist skills!"
As he spoke, thunder broke out from the ground, and then the sky collapsed.
By the time the dust and smoke dissipated, less than half of the mountaintop had collapsed.
"Do you think Wucheng is strong or not?!"
Zhao Cheng asked again.
"Vulnerable!"
This time, everyone said in unison while trembling continuously.
The trembling was half frightened and half excited. Everyone looked at Zhao Cheng, as if they were seeing the true God, and their eyes gradually turned red.
Originally, they didn't have the slightest confidence in taking Wucheng, but now, each one of them is beginning to imagine the scenery after they and others take Wucheng.
You know, Wucheng is different from Lianshan, a bitter and cold place. It is where real wealth lies.
As for the sturdy Wucheng, with such Taoism, even the mountains can collapse, not to mention the mere city walls?!
Facts have proven that stones are no match for TNT.
As long as there are enough, the mountain can explode.
However, this was just the beginning. Later, there would be a coalition of princes to jointly attack Huang Tian, but Zhao Cheng had someone send a blueprint to Taoist Huang Tian.
At this time, Taoist Huang Tian should have sent people to find uranium ore...
If it succeeds, then the real thunder from heaven will strike the earth.
The only problem is that whether it is refining or detonating, there are some useless immortals, and they have to be golden immortals...
…
Outside Wucheng, Xuan Zhenzi and his party came here again.
Outside the city, Xuan Zhenzi looked around and then murmured: "How can one person's Qi decline so much? This Wu Qi seemed to have a glimmer of hope just now, but it was quickly covered up by the death Qi."
"Sure enough, destiny is unpredictable."
"However, for Taoists like us, the same is actually true. One moment, there may be hope for the road, but the next moment, there will be no life or death."
"Once you enter the world of mortals, you will never be able to detach yourself from the world..."
"Let's go. The Wu family has lost hope, and the Feng and Chen families are unlikely to succeed. Let's go see Cao Zheng of Qingzhou. This man is very lucky now and may be able to rule the world..."
