Chapter 890

Thinking of this, Zhao Guogong felt indescribably annoyed in his heart, and asked the people next to him in a deep voice, "What should we do now?"

He didn't expect his soldiers to be so incompetent. If they lost another city, they would die without a place to die. At that time, even if Xiao Wenyu didn't attack the city, as long as they guarded the entrance and exit of the city gate, they would have problems eating , when the time comes, there is only a dead end.

So Sucheng cannot be lost.

Master Cao said quickly, "Your Majesty, there are only two ways to deal with the present situation. One group will assassinate Xiao Wenyu. If Xiao Wenyu can be successfully killed, our army's morale will be greatly boosted. We can go back and take back Dingcheng, and then continue to capture the city. Maybe because of this, half of the country will be won."

A whole country is impossible.

"If the assassination of Xiao Wenyu fails, we can use the people of Sucheng to threaten Xiao Wenyu, and use the lives of the people of Sucheng to force Xiao Wenyu to retreat. If he does not retreat, His Majesty can kill the people of Sucheng. If the people of Sucheng are killed, People in the world will definitely call Xiao Wenyu cruel and heartless, it is impossible for Xiao Wenyu to do such a thing."

Master Cao's words fell, and the leader Zhao Guogong was satisfied: "Okay, act according to Master Cao's words."

As for the person sent to assassinate Xiao Wenyu, he must choose carefully.

Dingcheng, after Xiao Wenyu captured Dingcheng, he led his troops into Dingcheng to appease the people. The people lined the road to welcome them, and everyone shouted long live. The people were unprecedentedly happy. These people enjoyed the favor brought by Xiao Wenyu, and they didn't recognize anyone who claimed to be emperor. Emperor, bah, you are a traitor.

That night, Xiao Wenyu stayed in the government office of Dingcheng and called several generals to discuss the matter of attacking Sucheng.

General Feng and others suggested that they attack Sucheng overnight, and they would be completely at a loss when they beat the Zhao bandits.

Xiao Wenyu agreed after thinking about it. Now is the time when their morale is boosted, and it is a good time to attack Sucheng.

"Okay, let the soldiers rest in the middle of the night, and attack Sucheng every moment."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Everyone retreated under orders, and Lu Jiao led someone in outside the door: "Yu'er, are you alright?"

Xiao Wenyu smiled and got up and helped Lu Jiao to sit down inside: "Mother, I'm fine, I just watched the battle before the battle, I didn't take part in the battle, so I didn't get hurt, don't worry,"

Lu Jiao nodded, looked at Xiao Wenyu and said, "It's very smooth to take down Dingcheng today, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to take down Sucheng later on. If the dog is in a hurry, he will jump over the wall. Zhao Guogong and his son are probably starving dogs. You have to be careful." .”

Xiao Wenyu agreed with Lu Jiao's reasoning, frowned and pondered for a while and said: "It is reasonable to outsmart, I didn't do this, I just wanted to force Zhao thief to do more inhumane things, in that case, his father and son will become notorious. , the villain who has left his name through the ages."

He hated Xiao Wenyu of the Zhao family, so even if they died, he didn't want them to die in peace.

Attacking Sucheng tonight, no accident, Zhao's father and son will jump over the wall in a hurry, and they may threaten him with the people of Sucheng, then he will let the whole world see how insane and inhumane these Zhao's father and son are.

After listening to Xiao Wenyu's words, Lu Jiao knew that he knew what he was thinking, so she didn't want to say anything more, she got up and was about to leave, she didn't want to just stand up, and suddenly saw Zhou Youjin coming in with an arrow.

"Your Majesty, someone shot an arrow, and there seems to be a letter on the arrow."

Xiao Wenyu immediately motioned for him to bring the arrow.

Sure enough, there was a letter on the arrow, Xiao Wenyu opened it, and it was written that he was the fourth-rank Anxi General Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng wrote in the letter that although he was a general of the Zhao family army, he had no intention of rebelling against him, and he knew that many people under Zhao's father and son did not want to rebel, but he didn't know how they suddenly rebelled.

Lin Cheng wanted to meet Xiao Wenyu face to face.

Lu Jiao read the letter and was a little worried: "It can't be a scam."

Just as Xiao Wenyu was thinking, Xiao Wenjia came in hurriedly outside the door to report: "Your Majesty, a general under Zhao Thief wants to see His Majesty."

Because there was an arrow first, Xiao Wenyu didn't make a big move, but ordered Xiao Wenjia to bring people in in a deep voice.

The person brought in was none other than Longguan General Lin Cheng.

As soon as Lin Cheng appeared, he knelt down with a plop: "I have seen Your Majesty."

Xiao Wenyu looked at her. On the side of the lobby, Lu Jiao was watching Lin Cheng vigilantly, in case he played any tricks.

However, Lin Cheng didn't look like he was playing any tricks, he kowtowed, and shouted as he kowtowed, "I'm guilty."

Xiao Wenyu frowned to signal him to calm down, then looked at him and said, "Why do you want to see me?"

Lin Cheng quickly opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, this minister is General Tan's subordinate. General Tan is the second rank Pinglu General who was appointed by the late emperor. He and Zhao Guogong guarded Longguan. After arriving at Longhaiguan, we were controlled before we could react, and later controlled by General Zhao's subordinates to participate in the battle to seize Susu City and Dingcheng."

"However, I and several generals do not agree with this matter, but because General Zhao's cronies are staring at me, I dare not show the slightest disobedience. This time, His Majesty led the army to capture Dingcheng. Zhao Guogong and his son left several The subordinates are mixed among the people of Dingcheng, and the minister also stayed behind."

"I want to see Your Majesty tonight. I want to ask Your Majesty to give me a chance to redeem my crimes. I would like to unite with the generals of Longhai Customs to take down the head of Zhao thief and his son and present it to Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty to give me a chance to redeem my crimes." Chance."

Today, His Majesty is not only literary and martial arts, but also deeply loved by the people of Dazhou. They are not fools to praise the stinky feet of Zhao thief and his son.

I just hate that they were accused and couldn't fight back, so now I can only atone for their crimes, and I only ask His Majesty to give them a chance.

When Xiao Wenyu heard Lin Cheng's words, he looked at him deeply, and it took him a long time to say: "Sure, if you can successfully eradicate Zhao thief and his son, I will spare you the guilt."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Lin Cheng finished speaking, he quickly reported: "I got the news earlier that the bandit Zhao sent assassins to assassinate His Majesty tonight. Be careful, Your Majesty."

Xiao Wenyu nodded and signaled Lin Cheng to back out.

As soon as Lin Cheng left, Xiao Wenyu ordered Xie Wenjia to announce several generals to come over. He wanted to discuss matters and change the siege plan.

"Zhao thief sent people to assassinate me, and I decided to use the strategy. If news of my murder spread to Sucheng, Zhao thief would definitely send troops to attack Dingcheng. Sucheng, take Sucheng."

After hearing this, the first few generals immediately took orders: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Worried that the assassin would hurt Xiao Wenyu, Lu Jiao didn't leave, but slept on the soft couch outside Xiao Wenyu's room.

Xiao Wenyu also let her go, and the two of them started gossiping across a screen.

"Mother, after arresting thief Zhao and returning to the capital, you can go to live in the palace for a while, and let your son fulfill his filial piety."

In the past, he always thought that if he became capable in the future, he must honor his mother. Now that he has become the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, his mother does not want to live in the palace. Xiao Wenyu always feels that this is a bit regrettable.

Lu Jiao recognized his voice-over, and responded straightforwardly: "Okay, this time I'm going back to Beijing, I'll stay in the palace for a few days."

Xiao Wenyu was happy, she stood up and said excitedly: "Mother, don't play tricks."

Lu Jiao rolled her eyes angrily: "What do you think of me as your mother, what I said naturally counts."

Xiao Wenyu laughed: "That's true."

As soon as he finished speaking, the air suddenly froze, and murderous aura surged all around.
