Chapter 92: Qiao Yuan cherishes his life and avoids the sidelines, escapes from the thief, advises and prepares for war
The wife of the Jun led them into the house, bowed to Zhu Tihou, then closed the door and retreated. Wu Weiyi looked around the house, and felt that the decorations of the side halls were quite old. He also saw that the palace servants outside the house were cleaning, so he knew that Zhu Tihou must have just moved here.
Du Yu only felt that Zhu Tihou's behavior was a bit strange. I wonder why Zhu Tihou is now? He was so frightened and suspicious in his palace. So he walked up and asked Zhu Tihou:
"Uncle... Are you?... Why do you live in this side hall now?"
I heard that Zhu Tihou was depressed there, and he only sighed for a while, and replied helplessly to them:
"Ah... it's all because of the unfavorable work of these people below! They actually cheated me into this... Last night, I don't know where the omission was! A small piece of Ba people's work was mixed in the city!... And those small pieces were really bold and arbitrary! They actually broke into the Heavenly Prison and kidnapped the rebellious son!... Now I don't know where they are going... I am afraid that the rebellious son will lead those rebellions and come to the palace to assassinate him when the night is dark. Therefore, I moved to the side hall here for a while... Alas! I am really angry... I am angry!"
In fact, at this time, Wu Weiyi, who led the way outside the hall, had already known that Qiao Buwei escaped. He also expected what Zhu Tihou was trying to do... He heard Zhu Tihou beat his chest and stamp his feet in this tunnel, but Wu Weiyi just smiled slightly and comforted him casually:
"Haha... The Marquis doesn't have to be so nervous. Thinking about Qiao Buwei, even if he escapes from the cage, he will not come to the trap!"
When Zhu Tihou saw that Wu Weiyi was so confident, he was a little confused:
"Oh? Why is this...but I wonder what Mr. Wu has?!"
Wu Weiyi pushed his hands and bowed to Zhu Tihou again and said:
"What the thief planned was the title of Zhu Tihou. Now that he is disgraced, the so-called "unrighteous" word will not be appropriate. If he performs assassination at this time, even if he can succeed, what benefits will it do to him? I'm afraid he will only be charged with regicide... The thief was originally a very smart person, and he must have already understood the calculations... Therefore, Wu believed that he would definitely not take risks on his own and do such a futile thing!"
Zhu Tihou only heard that although Wu Weiyi was talking so well and speaking with reason, he still had a lot of worries when he saw that he was still worried, and in the end he had to spread his hands and replied:
"Hey... Although what you said is reasonable, but... I think it's better to be careful in everything! Be careful..."
At this moment, he heard another urgent report from outside the hall! When everyone heard this, the person who came to report was nothing but Gong Zhengxu here. He heard that he was very anxious and panting:
"Lord! Big...that's a big deal! I just came to report to the North Gate! It was said that the group of Ba people had taken the North Gate and fled!..."
When everyone heard this news, they were shocked! Especially Zhu Tihou Qiao Yuan, he stomped his feet in anger and said:
"Ah!......this...this group of useless men! With the current garrison of the North Gate, it can be said that they are guarding the throne! But how can they still get rid of them?!"
"Report to the lord, those Ba people are really cunning in their works. Since a large number of civil servants who were quarrying in the mountains today returned to the city, the city gate was opened for half a day. Who knew that these Ba people were actually quarrying in the mountains and returned from quarrying in the mountains! At first, the guards of the North Gate also noticed that these people who were quarrying in the current were indeed strange and were about to go up to check it. However, they did not expect that those minijus were attacking suddenly while the guards were unprepared, and then seized the North Gate and fled!"
After hearing this, Zhu Tihou continued to yell at the entrance of the hall:
"Oh! Useless! What a group of useless people!... Then... the thief escaped from the north gate with them?!"
"Report to the lord! The guards of the north gate saw with their own eyes that the thief did escape with the Ba people!..."
When Zhu Tihou heard that the rebellious Qiao Buwei had taken out the North Gate, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief! Because he knew that at least his life was safe now... However, after hearing the urgent report, Wu Weiyi lowered his head and thought for a while. He suddenly shouted:
"Not good!...I'm afraid that those Ba people will soon be at Zhuti Pass!...Marty! Please mobilize the entire city to prepare for war quickly... Then release the scouts, go out of the north gate, and monitor the movements of the Taoist road day and night!..."
Originally, Zhu Tihou was still a little secretly grateful. He thought that the thief would be fine as long as he left the city gate, but he didn't know that this idea was simply a stolen bell! He heard that Zhu Tihou was still stubborn and asked Wu Weiyi with some luck:
"I wonder why Mr. Wu said this? Perhaps the thief had carefully designed this situation so that he could get out of the city just to escape?"
Wu Weiyi was still lucky when he heard about the incident of Zhu Ti Marquis, so he was a little anxious. After all, this matter not only involved the safety of the people here, but if Zhu Ti Guan had any mistakes, they were afraid that they would be unable to escape death!
I heard that Wu Weiyi tried his best to retort to Zhu Tihou:
"The Marquis is such a bad word! Marquis just imagine that if he was just saved by his servants, it might be as the Marquis said... But now the thief is robbed by the Ba people! This is enough to show that the thief is still in contact with the Ba people in the city... Since those Ba people agreed to come to save him, it can be seen that the thief must still be in contact with the Ba people!... Otherwise, why did the thief take risks to come and save him?"
Zhu Tihou was reminded by Wu Weiyi, but he immediately understood:
"So!...Sir, I mean...that the rebellious son is going to lead the Ba people to attack my Zhutiguan?!......Rebellious son! I was really blind at the beginning!..."
After Wu Weiyi said this, Zhu Tihou suddenly felt that it was indeed a crisis of situation. Therefore, he seemed a little helpless at this time.
"Since that's the case...then...then what should I do for it?"
Hearing that Zhu Tihou was indeed a little panicked in his words, Wu Weiyi replied to him immediately:
"The Marquis doesn't need to be too panicked. For the sake of the present, the only way is to actively reorganize the army and prepare for war is to be the best strategy. First, recruit and mobilize all Chinese people over 15 years old in the city to serve as soldiers. If they are sold all day, they must not make any mistakes. If they are sold, they must not slack off when they are guarding the city day and night! In addition, the city's food and fodder will be collected immediately, and the food will be accumulated at the south gate. According to the statistics, the soldiers and people of various departments will be distributed every day and night... Also, the well craftsmen will be ordered to drill wells in various places in the city to obtain water, and the water of the streams next to the city will not be available in wartime! In addition, although a newly built city wall outside the north of the city has begun to take shape, it still needs to be repaired within a few days. Hundreds of stonework can be sent to work day and night within three days to strengthen the city defense!..."
I saw Wu Weiyi thinking about it while talking about many ways to defend the city. However, he said that Zhu Ti Hou and Du Yu were both confused and did not know what they said.
But Mo Zhai was different from them. He was so focused that he listened. Not only did he listen to it, but he also silently pondered it in his heart. He felt that these methods of defending the city were indeed extremely critical. Seeing him standing there, he nodded frequently.
Seeing that Wu Weiyi had not finished speaking here, Zhu Tihou couldn't sit still after hearing it, and felt his legs numb and his ass were sticky. He waved his hand and begged to Wu Weiyi:
"Okay... Mr. Wu... I absolutely trust you... I am not as good as this. I can take my seal and sword at will. I will entrust my entire city to Mr. Mr. I hope that Mr. can defend this territory for me and not destroy the foundation of my ancestors. I will do everything. Mr. Wu..."
After Zhu Tihou finished speaking, he actually bowed to Wu Weiyi on his own initiative.
