Southern Territory, Lieyang City.

Jiang Sanchun and others once again gathered in the imperial study to discuss matters.

But this time Jiang Zhengshan did not arrive.

"Everyone, let's take a look. This is the information sent by the hive. I have confirmed it with the information heard by the imperial intelligence office. There is no discrepancy."

Jiang Sanchun handed a magic light jade slip to everyone to circulate.

"Rebel Alliance? Did they change the name of their own alliance?"

After reading it, Sun Miao smiled and said: "Brother, it seems that people think that you are the traitor who seeks to usurp the throne, so they want to attack you."

Jiang Sanchun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay, junior sister, don't tease me about your brother at this time, let's talk about business first!"

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh at you anymore."

Sun Miao stopped smiling and looked at everyone with a serious face: "Uncle Yun, Uncle Bai, and the fifth senior brother. It seems that our past intelligence is correct. Wu Guogong and others really want to start trouble in the vassal states."

Yun Zhilan nodded: "They are quite smart. They know that it is impossible to succeed in the rebellion in the mainland of the Zhou Dynasty. It is indeed a wise move to choose the vassal states as the starting point."

In addition to the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are also a large number of vassal states scattered throughout the Southern Territory. Some of them existed during the Lieyang Empire, and some were enfeoffed later.

In fact, before the fourth wave of evil desires and demons that year, Zhou Yuniang sent people to completely incorporate all the vassal states into the Great Zhou Dynasty, turning the entire southern region into only one country, the Great Zhou Dynasty.

However, due to some special reasons, this matter was not fully implemented. Therefore, although the number of vassal states in the Southern Region is not as high as that of the Lieyang Empire, there are still many.

Bai Xiang handed the Huanguang Jade Slip to Fifth Yunzhong and said: "Those rebels, headed by Duke Wu, have controlled one hundred and eight upper-level vassal states, as well as countless middle- and lower-level vassal states."

"They have now begun to gather a large army. It is estimated that they will take action in three months and start attacking other vassal states."

"Wu Guogong's idea is to annex more vassal states first. The advantage of this is that he can continue to plunder military supplies and increase the number of troops."

"In addition, the conquered land of the vassal states can also increase their strategic depth, allowing them to have a larger territory to deal with us."

"Strike steadily and step by step, it seems that Duke Wu is really not to be underestimated."

Fifth Yunzhong also finished reading the jade slips and said in deep thought: "This Duke Wu is indeed not simple."

"According to the information our Supervision Department has received, although this person has some abilities since inheriting the title, he is not very outstanding."

"If it weren't for the hereditary title, Duke Wu's abilities would probably only be enough to manage a city."

"But after the Immortal Sect appeared in the world, Wu Guogong seemed to have suddenly enlightened. His methods of doing things became very clever, and his abilities became more and more outstanding."

"Many people say that the former Duke Wu was actually hiding his clumsiness and ambition."

"It wasn't until the Immortal Sect came into being and His Majesty died suddenly that Duke Wu had the courage to expose his ambitions."

Jiang Sanchun sneered when he heard this: "Zangzhuo? It seems that after all, our strength is not as good as the master, and we cannot suppress the ambitions of some people."

"But no matter whether Wu Guogong is hiding his clumsiness or not, there is no need to change the plan we agreed on before."

"Now our army has gradually mobilized to the border. When the time comes, we can invade the princely states with a single order."

"In addition, most of the vassal states are actually still controlled by the imperial court, and our people have also gone to contact them."

"Once our army takes action, those princely states will cooperate with us and attack Duke Wu together."

"In this case, even if Wu Guogong and others are known as the 108 princes, they will not be able to stay around for long."

Over the past three months, personnel from both sides were frequently mobilized.

On this day, dark clouds rolled over the city, and a mountain rain was about to come.

The army of the Rebel Alliance gathered on a grassland. The number of people was unknown, and the edges were almost invisible at a glance.

In the center of the army, an altar hundreds of feet high had already been erected.

On the altar, Duke Wu and the top officials of the 108 princes were holding a swearing-in meeting.

Wu Guogong is wearing armor, and his face looks like he is in his thirties or forties, but for immortal cultivators, appearance does not reflect his true age.

At this time, the high priest killed three animals to offer sacrifices to heaven, and had finished reading the sacrificial text.

Wu Guogong stood high on the altar, looking down at the endless army on the grassland.

He suddenly drew out his ceremonial sword and shouted loudly: "Jiang Sanchun plotted to usurp the throne and tried to ascend the throne through despicable means. He is really treasonous!"

"I am the Duke of Wu, and my grandfather once founded the Great Zhou Dynasty with the late emperor. How can I watch the rebellious people usurp the government and let the late emperor die in peace?"

"Soldiers, we swear here today that we will never give up until we kill Jiang Sanchun!"

His voice, driven by powerful magic power, spread throughout the grassland.

The army all over the mountains and plains suddenly roared with roars: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Seeing the momentum of the army, Wu Guogong looked excited and was about to announce the departure of the army.

But at this moment, a huge roar suddenly came from the sky.

Boom!

Everyone was startled and looked towards the distant sky.

I saw the clouds rolling in the sky, surging towards this side like huge waves in the vast sea, and in an instant they were already pressing on the grassland.

The next moment, the sea of ​​clouds parted, revealing an elite army shrouded in mist.

"Wu Dou Army, that's Wu Dou Army!"

"Wu Dou Army always obeys Jiang Sanchun's orders, could it be that Jiang Sanchun personally led the army here?"

"No way, Jiang Sanchun is now the King of Dai, in charge of the Great Zhou Dynasty, how could he come here in person?"

On the altar, the high-ranking officials of the 108 princes whispered.

Suddenly, the Wu Dou Army above the sea of ​​clouds parted, and a female general in sharp armor stood out from the crowd, looking down at the Duke of Wu and others below.

"Who did you think it was, it was Yun Xiang!"

Duke Wu said with a smile: "Yun Xiang, how long have we not seen each other? I didn't expect that you would lead the fighting army this time?"

Yun Zhilan said calmly: "I didn't expect that the Wu Guogong who seemed to be timid back then actually hid so deeply. Duke Wu, you really surprised me!"

"Really?"

Duke Wu smiled even more: "Yun Xiang's beauty is admired by countless people in the Great Zhou. This is also the case for the Duke, and his love for her has never changed."

"This time, the Duke gathered a large army to fight against the rebellion, which frightened Yun Xiang. It was really the Duke's fault."

"When the Duke kills Jiang Sanchun and restores the Great Zhou to orthodoxy, he will naturally come to apologize to Yun Xiang in person."

"If Yun Xiang favors you, the Duke is willing to marry the Queen and go to the fairyland with Yun Xiang. How about it?"
