How could they not miss him? Of course they had to grab hold of this new owner of the house, and the relationship between Second Prince and his son, Liu Changfu, had surfaced. He passed the news to Dongfang Ning, just to let Dongfang Ning also leave the capital, and have some fun later …
However, he did not expect that his plan would fail miserably when he passed the news to Dongfang Ning. There was nothing he could do. Dongfang Ning could turn on her phone and fly, and she could even calculate everything.
"Brother Wei, it's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, we'd all be starved to death!"
In the Western Ridge Camp, which was camped outside of the Shanyang City, a robust man continuously toasted the person in front of him.
"General Wang, there's no need to be so polite. You and I are on the same boat now. As long as we succeed in our mission, we can build a small palace here. Then, we can all live good lives with Second Prince. Hahaha ~"
"Hahaha …"
Several generals of these fifty thousand sat in this battalion, each toasting Wei Zhongming.
"Guard commander, if you had not let us in and sealed off the customs, we would not have such a good life. We might even have to hide in the mountains and drink this Northwest Wind. You have to drink this cup!"
This soldier was the same officer Wei Fengcheng who introduced himself as the soldier commander when Dongfang Ning was treating Third Young Master Liu San with her Liu Family. Unexpectedly, he was a spy, and as he was being showered on by General Xi Ling, his face was flushed red, as he happily joked with everyone.
"As long as you kill Yan Wuzhan, this Shan Nation will be ours as soon as possible. Yan Wuzhan's skills are really hard to predict. I think I've thought about that day for a long time …"
"Don't worry, Yan Wuzhan is not a match for the scholar. The problem is, will the scholar really kill Yan Wuzhan for Wei Lingyun?"
"..."
"Yan Wuzhan, they, he is not someone from Sea Nation. All of the Sea Nation Soldiers have a fish growing on their clothes. They are not, definitely not. Who are they? Who are these people …"
At this time, the Sea Nation envoy who was standing on top of the city wall and looking at the enemies outside continuously said that the people outside were not the Sea Nation army, and he was scared silly. What should he do, being surrounded by so many people, even if he had wings, it would be hard to escape …
Those people were only three hundred steps away from the city wall, and with his eyesight, he was unable to see clearly. However, the flag that was raised high up did not have the symbol of the Sea Nation, so he was sure that it was not really an army of Sea Nation.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure, I'm really sure. Battle King, we are inside the city of your Shan Nation, you have to protect our safety, you can't let anything happen to us …"
"..."
"What about the crown prince?"
"This official has made a mistake. This official will not say anymore. First, let's face off the enemy. There are reinforcements nearby …"
Fortunately, they surrounded the city without attacking it. If they had attacked the city the moment they arrived, they might have already broken into the city.
"Alright, go back. This King will think about it."
"Huangfu Qi, how many men do you have left?"
Yan Wuzhan asked Huangfu Qi as they walked. Being surrounded but not attacking must be a matter of waiting for someone's order. Attacking is only a matter of time. If you don't make full preparations soon, how are you going to deal with these people?
"All of them have more than 20,000 people, none of the few encampments outside can contact them. I think they either have been killed or have betrayed them. Martial law has been imposed on the city for a few days already."
"The commoners have all been told to stay at their homes and not go out. I've already sent seven hundred miles back to the capital for instruction. There hasn't been a single return to the capital yet, so I presume that all the roads have fallen to our enemies …"
Along the way, Huangfu Qi told Yan Wuzhan about all his plans for the past few days. Now that Yan Wuzhan had come, he finally had some confidence.
"Then what about you two, what happened? Why did you suddenly think of coming to Shan Nation to visit? Could it be that this is your plan?"
Yan Wuzhan suddenly asked the Sea Nation envoy, as this happened too coincidentally. The emperor told him that something happened to Shanyang City, and that the Sea Nation Prince died in Shan Yang.
He had only been at the Hui Long Town for a few days. Once he returned, he couldn't even enter the city anymore.
Why did the Shan Nation come over for? Why didn't the Shan Nation come over to hand in the letter of credence before coming over, so that the Shan Nation could prepare?
"Battle King, it's none of our business, it was the day when the crown prince suddenly said that he wanted to come to the Shan Nation to play, and conveniently gave the emperor some gifts in hopes of taking Princess Qimeng as his wife. That's why he brought us here.
"Guard chief?"
Yan Wuzhan looked at Huangfu Qi doubtfully. What could a soldier do? Yes, a soldier doesn't matter. What's the point of a soldier not staying in his own battalion and running to the customs?
"Wei Fengcheng, he's the main soldier of the Ximen family base. Why would he go to the customs? What's his relationship with the Prince of Sea Nation?"
Huangfu Qi was also dumbfounded, he did not know why this person went to the customs. Hearing the meaning behind the envoy's words, the envoy even went to specially pick up the Sea Nation Crown Prince, there must be some connection between them.
enemy camp outside the city
"Something happened. That Wei Lingyun went missing, and all the people in the shop were killed. The people that were sent to investigate were also dead on the road. They committed suicide."
A scout came to the camp to report.
"What?!"
The person called General Wang by Wei Fengcheng immediately stood up. Something had happened at that place, so it meant that they had lost contact with the capital. What should they do now?
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. They were speechless for a long time. Since they couldn't get any news from the capital, they became headless flies.
"Whatever, let's attack the city now. We're doomed if we wait for reinforcements to come from the capital!"
Another high-ranking officer raised the wine cup in his hand and slammed it onto the ground.
"These days have been too depressing. Come, let's attack the city, let's attack the city first. If we continue to stay outside, with the reinforcements from Shan Nation, we definitely won't be able to hold on!"
"Now, this is the only way …"
"There are only two gates to the Shanyang City, and those two gates are for our men. Attack from the south gate first, lure everyone over, and the other three gates will attack at the same time and take down the gate in one go!"
The few of them immediately began to walk towards the outside. They were forced onto this path, but there was nothing they could do about it.
"Not good, the enemies outside are attacking the city!"
Inside the Shanyang City, many citizens were hiding within their own homes, but they still knew what was happening outside. When they heard that the enemy was really attacking the city, they couldn't help but run around wildly.
"All of you, go back. This is just an attack on the city. Sabers and arrows are blind. Go back to your homes. War is a military matter."
The soldiers who were in charge of security could not help but yell at the people to go home. It was not safe outside.
"Huangfu Qi, how long can these people hold out?"
