Chapter 20 Civil turmoil
Chapter 20 Civil turmoil
After the conversation that day, Zheng Miao thought she had Han Zhao's support, so she shifted her "work focus" to other people.
Someone was really moved by him, and rumors began to spread in the team.
Yu Wenxun's words gradually lost their effectiveness.
Han Zhao watched coldly, only watching how Yu Wenxun would solve it.
The subordinates made various provocations, but the young general just kept silent after being offended, and continued to march towards South Vietnam with his troops.
After nearly a month of trekking, the group finally arrived at the border of South Vietnam.
There are many miasmas and dense forests in South Vietnam, and it is humid and hot.
If it were changed to Liangzhou, the autumn wind would blow the land by now, and the vegetation would be withered and yellow, but here it is still like midsummer in June, with scorching heat.
As soon as Fang entered the Nanyue King City, Han Zhao realized that something was wrong.
The atmosphere in the city was rather tense, and everyone was talking about one thing—the new king's accession to the throne.
What made Han Zhao more concerned was Yu Wenxun's reaction. When he heard these words, his expression was very solemn. It seemed that their real mission would be affected by the change of the throne.
And on the night when they and their group checked into the Nanyue Wangcheng Inn, a South Vietnamese army surrounded the inn.
However, because of precautions in advance, everyone discovered something was wrong and withdrew in time, and no one fell into the hands of the South Vietnamese army.
But after escaping from the inn, the contradictions in the team broke out completely.
In the remote deserted house where they were hiding, Zheng Miao was the first to attack, pointing a knife at Yu Wenxun: "Master Yuwen, don't blame me, I just want to ask you a few questions for the survival of the brothers."
At the same time, the brothers surnamed Li and the swordsman Lu Jia who were dragged into the gang by him also secretly went around behind Yu Wenxun and cut off his retreat.
Yu Wenxun looked calm and unruffled in the face of danger. He regarded Zheng Miao's saber as nothing and asked, "What's the problem?"
Zheng Miao: "What is the purpose of coming to South Vietnam this time?"
Yu Wenxun replied without thinking: "Pick the peacock."
Seeing that Yu Wenxun still refused to tell the truth at this point, Zheng Miao laughed angrily: "Master Yuwen still deceives me as a fool. Will the South Vietnamese army hunt down the peacock?"
Yu Wenxun didn't want to talk nonsense with Zheng Miao, he just asked, "How are you doing?"
"Master Yuwen won't eat a toast and fine wine, so don't blame me for being rude." After speaking, he raised his chin to the people behind Yu Wenxun, "Come on, tie him up."
Yu Wenxun looked back at several people: "Do you also agree with his approach?"
The three of them were paused by Yu Wenxun's cold gaze, but they still chose to move closer to Yu Wenxun.
While Han Zhao kept watching with cold eyes, the swordsman named Yuan Xie just wiped his sword silently from the beginning to the end, and did not respond to what happened in front of him.
Yu Wenxun looked back, he knew the positions of the people present.
He looked at Zheng Miao and scolded: "These days you have provoked me several times and spread rumors that slander me. I don't care about it with you. Unexpectedly, you got worse and took the lead in making trouble. A villain like you really can't do it." Forgive me."
While speaking, the three people behind him had already leaned forward. Yu Wenxun clasped a hand that wanted to put it on his shoulder with his backhand, threw it over his shoulder, and fell in front of him. His Li brothers fell to the ground.
Seeing Yu Wenxun's attack, Zheng Miao raised his saber and attacked him.
Yu Wenxun easily dodged his blade, mockingly said: "Your kung fu is not worthy of your ambition."
The system panel's evaluation of Yu Wenxun's martial arts is top-notch, at the same level as Han Zhao, and this level means that they are considered top-notch masters in the world.
As long as Han Zhao doesn't make a move, these people will not be Yu Wenxun's opponents.And in the observation before the shot, Yu Wenxun read Han Zhao's attitude-the two will not help each other.
Yu Wenxun singled out Zheng Miao and the other four, but the four fought harder and harder. Seeing that the situation was not going well, Zheng Miao yelled at Han Zhao: "Brother Han, why don't you make a move?"
Han Zhao responded indifferently: "Don't call me brother, I am not familiar with Your Excellency."
He has a cold personality, and he can count on one hand the people who have called him brothers in this life, and Zheng Miao is definitely not among them.
Zheng Miao was furious and scolded Han Zhao for being a villain without faith. Han Zhao's eyes sank when he heard this.
1.0 Surprised: Is this Zheng Miao a master minesweeper?Is it so accurate to step on thunder?
Luckily, Han Zhao ignored Zheng Miao because he was fighting a trapped beast.
Sure enough, within ten strokes, the four of them were knocked down by Yu Wenxun, unable to fight back.
Yu Wenxun picked up his pistol with his feet, and pointed the tip of the gun at Zheng Miao's throat.
Zheng Miao panicked, completely without the arrogance and arrogance he had when facing Yu Wenxun before: "I am not your soldier, and secondly, I am not a minister of Liangzhou. You can't kill me."
Yu Wenxun looked at Han Zhao and Yuan Xie who did not make a move: "What do you think?"
The younger brother among the Li brothers rushed to respond: "Yes, you can't kill us."
In the past few days, he also followed Zheng Miao and made things difficult for Yu Wenxun, and he was very afraid of Yu Wenxun's revenge.
At this moment, a cold voice intervened: "No one can say no to absolute strength."
The one who spoke was Yuan Xie, who had been reticent these days, so it was surprising that he asked to help Yu Wenxun at this time.
Yu Wenxun looked at Yuan Xie in surprise, Yuan Xie was still wiping the sword in his hand with his head down.
He laughed twice: "Well said, no one can say no to absolute strength." After speaking, he picked up the gun in his hand and cut Zheng Miao's throat.
Then he turned around and looked at the remaining trembling three people. Without Zheng Miao as the leader, these grasshoppers would be useless, and Yu Wenxun didn't bother to kill them: "Go away, don't appear in front of me again."
Watching them flee, Yu Wenxun turned to look at Han Zhao and Yuan Xie with complicated eyes.
According to his original plan, he would deal with all these people at once, but some people just didn't fit in.
It was a good thing that they hadn't been unrighteous to him, but his original plan didn't include anyone else, and now Yu Wenxun was in a dilemma as to whether to leave these two behind.
What they were going to do in Nanyue this time was not to pick up some peacocks, but to secretly bring Liu Xuan back to Liangzhou and support him as the master.
This plan was proposed by Yuwen Xun to Zhou Yuan.
After Zhou Yuan took refuge in the new dynasty, the relationship with the new dynasty was not good, and the new emperor always wanted to get his hands on Liangzhou.
How can the veteran forces in Liangzhou headed by Zhou Yuan agree?The two sides have been secretly competing.
Recently, the conflict has intensified to the point of irreconcilability. The new emperor not only stopped the military salary subsidy to Liangzhou, but also secretly encouraged some members of the Wang and Song families to make trouble in Liangzhou.
Zhou Yuan and his henchmen spent a lot of effort to quell the civil strife.
As the civil strife was established, Zhou Yuan would not sit still, he began to consider self-reliance.
However, his previous behavior of turning to the puppet dynasty made him lose faith in front of the world. Now if he takes the lead in betraying the puppet emperor, his reputation will be completely discredited.
Even if he becomes self-reliant at that time, who in the world would dare to follow him or conspire with him?On the contrary, many people will take the opportunity to attack him and divide his power.
Although Xinyi is just a fig leaf in the eyes of real careerists, it would be impossible without this fig leaf.
So Yu Wenxun proposed this method to Zhou Yuan after thinking hard.
When the false emperor usurped the throne, Emperor Ling fled with only a few of his beloved princes and princesses, and the rest either fled in all directions or were killed.
After Liu Xuan escaped from the Eastern Capital, he fled to South Vietnam and was taken in by the benevolent King of South Vietnam. Five years later, the careerists in the Central Plains had long forgotten about this young master. No one mentioned Liu Xuan when they came out, they all thought that Liu Xuan had already died in a foreign country.
However, because Yu Wenxun was not reused by Zhou Yuan, he had been sent to deal with businessmen from all over the world, so he also happened to learn from a South Vietnamese businessman that Liu Xuan was still alive in South Vietnam, so he came up with this plan.
If Zhou Yuan welcomes Liu Xuan back and supports him as the master, then not only will he not be accused of betrayal, he will even be able to clear up his previous defection to the false emperor, and he will suddenly become a loyal and good minister.
As for the issue of rights, Liu Xuan is only fourteen years old this year, has lived in a foreign country for a long time, has no cronies to use, and does not understand the situation in the Central Plains, so it is really easy to control.
But is Yu Wenxun selfish in planning so hard?
Of course there are.
He prides himself on being extraordinary and capable, but because of his alien origin, he has not been able to reuse him, nor has he had the opportunity to display his talents.
But if he can bring Liu Xuan back safely this time, it will not only be a great achievement, but also a great kindness to Liu Xuan.
With this sympathy, why would he worry about not having a chance to advance.
Yu Wenxun originally proposed that he do it alone, but Zhou Yuan didn't believe in his ability, so he insisted on building a team for him.
Now finding excuses to solve more than half of them, but there are two remaining, how to deal with it is really difficult for Yu Wenxun.
These two people are different from Zheng Miao, they can be regarded as powerful and loyal people, and now that the situation has changed, he may not be able to complete the task smoothly by himself.
So, believe it?Do not believe it?
Just when Yu Wenxun was hesitating, Han Zhao said leisurely: "The inn is surrounded by South Vietnamese soldiers. It seems that there is a problem with the previous arrangement. It is beyond the power of Mr. Yuwen to solve the matter. Why don't you just say it and let's go together." planning?"
Yuan Xie, who had been wiping his sword all the time, also looked up at Yu Wenxun. When the four of them besieged Yu Wenxun just now, he didn't help Yu Wenxun because he wanted to know what was so tricky about this mission.
These words hit Yu Wenxun's concerns. He had spent a lot of time planning this plan. Naturally, he didn't want to fail, but if there were two more people, the credit would be divided into three. Yu Wenxun was really not reconciled.
After struggling again and again, Yu Wenxun took a deep breath, well, if these two people can't help him, it won't be too late for him to leave the two of them and plan on his own.
Yu Wenxun first walked to the door and checked the surroundings. After confirming that there was no one there, he turned back into the house and said in a low voice, "The task this time is indeed not to pick up some peacocks. It is to rescue the young master Liu Xuan!"
"It's just that the clues of the South Vietnamese merchants I contacted earlier have been cut off, and the South Vietnamese royal court is undergoing a change, and the official attitude is unclear for a while. I have no good plan for now—"
Since someone came to the inn to hunt them down, the businessman's line was no longer available, and he sent officers and soldiers, it proved that someone in the Nanyue royal court did not want them to take Liu Xuan away.
Now they are alone.
This answer is almost the same as Han Zhao's guess. It seems that Zhou Yuan is indeed planning to break with the false emperor.
But in the information given by the system, there is no record about Liu Xuan's leadership of Liangzhou. It seems that this young master died quietly in South Vietnam according to the original historical route.
This operation must have failed as well.
But what is different now is that there is more Han Zhao, and Han Zhao hopes it will succeed.
It is a good thing for Han Zhao that Zhou Yuan wants to support Liu Xuan.
If Zhou Yuan could protect Liu Xuan, then he would not mind protecting Liu Ji; if he could find a place to shelter Zhao Ji within the pass, then Han Zhao would not want to leave the pass either.
He didn't like a place full of barbarians as soon as he left the customs, and it was not beneficial to Zhao Ji's education.
Therefore, Han Zhao decided to do his best to facilitate this matter. He stood up and clasped his fists to Yu Wenxun: "Master Yuwen tells you frankly, and I am willing to conspire with you. If this happens, Lord Yuwen will be the number one hero in Liangzhou."
The second half of Han Zhao's sentence is quite meaningful, he is showing that he will not compete with Yu Wenxun for the first place.
Zheng Miao could see Yu Wenxun's desire to climb up, but Han Zhao couldn't.His aspirations are not in Liangzhou, so what if all the credit is given to Yu Wenxun?
Yuan Xie responded coldly: "I don't care what I do with money. I just hope you don't play tricks with me."
His demeanor was pure and indifferent, but not offensive.
Capable and smart, he will not drag people down and make trouble; indifferent and withdrawn, he will not play with complicated human relationships and morals, and will not conspire.Such a person is the best companion, why not like it?
In this way, the remaining three formed a new alliance.
The author has something to say: finish writing this plot and return to Liangzhou as soon as possible _(:з」∠)_
