After the morning court, the Taishi Mansion.

"Is there no news from Fang Tianlei yet?"

"Go back to Grand Master, not yet."

"My subordinates feel that, judging from the information Fang Tianlei has conveyed to us recently, Fang Tianlei must have had different intentions."

He Yuanchang didn't feel the slightest surprise when he heard this.

"It's normal for Fang Tianlei to have different intentions. After all, Lin'an and Jiangning's bandits have defeated the imperial encirclement and suppression army one after another. Fang Tianlei is not an easy person. Now that the bandits seem to have the upper hand, Fang Tianlei will naturally have some

idea."

"However, the most important thing for us right now is to find out whether there is support from Jingguo behind Lin'an and Jiangning's bandit army."

"Back to Grand Master, we contacted the envoy of Jingguo before, but the envoy of Jingguo neither acknowledged nor refuted it, which is really hard to figure out."

"No matter what, this matter must be clarified."

"Yes, Grand Master, my subordinates will hurry up and implement it."

Three days later, the imperial capital of Jingguo.

"Your Majesty, the envoys sent by the Wu Dynasty to negotiate peace are already waiting outside the palace."

"Let them come in!" Emperor Jingguo, Baili Hongji, sat high on the dragon throne with a majestic look.

After a while, the personnel sent by Master He to negotiate peace walked into the palace hall.

"Greetings, His Majesty the Emperor Jingguo!"

"Tell me, on what terms do you, Emperor Wu, intend to negotiate peace?"

"Back to His Majesty the Emperor, these are the preliminary terms of peace drawn up by our Wu Dynasty. Please take a look at them."

Soon, after casually reading the terms of the negotiation, Baili Hong stopped and said.

"The above conditions are too few. Go back and tell Zhou Zhe that you want to negotiate peace with me, Jingguo. On the basis of the above conditions, plus the two continents outside the customs, there is no way you can even think of negotiating peace with me, Jingguo."

Baili Hongji also knew about the civil strife that occurred within the Wu Dynasty during this period. He also knew that the civil strife that occurred within the Wu Dynasty made the Wu Dynasty court mistakenly believe that he, Jingguo, was behind it.

Regarding this point, Yingguo neither affirmed nor denied it. It was obvious that he wanted to take this opportunity to negotiate more conditions from the Wu Dynasty's initiative to negotiate peace.

Not only did it ask for a large amount of coins and cloth from Wu Dynasty every year, Jingguo also planned to take this opportunity to ask Wu Dynasty for the land of two continents.

Even if the land of two continents fails, a few more cities will be a good thing for his country.

In short, he, Jingguo, must appear extremely strong during this peace negotiation.

In fact, given the current situation of Jingguo, there is no power to support it in sending its troops south to attack Wu Dynasty.

Because Jingguo annexed Liang State, which was about the same size as his original territory, in this war, although Jingguo won the final victory.

However, more than half of the hundreds of thousands of elite cavalry suffered casualties.

In addition, Jingguo added Liang's huge territory, and Jingguo had to send troops to garrison and rule these new territories.

In this way, Jingguo would have no extra troops to go south to attack Wu Dynasty.

However, if Jingguo is allowed to rest for a year or two, after Jingguo absorbs the power of Liang and restores his elite, the Wu Dynasty will definitely be Jingguo's new target.

Regarding this point, those ministers and generals who were loyal to the Wu Dynasty and wanted to regain the lost territory all understood it.

But the emperor was too stupid to initiate a war.

Coupled with the fact that there are treacherous ministers who are causing trouble in it, and Cheng Yaojin who comes out halfway like Li Yang, the Wu Dynasty is naturally on the verge of collapse.

In the court of Jingguo, Emperor Baili Hongji of Jingguo directly sent the envoys sent by Wu Dynasty to leave the court after seeing them.

Then he said to the ministers of Jingguo.

"Is there any new news about the rebel forces that emerged in the Wu Dynasty?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the troops we sent have secretly entered the territory of Wu Dynasty. I believe that the news will be sent back soon."

"Well, pay close attention to the trends in the Wu Dynasty, and report any news to me as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Time flies, half a month later, Jiangning City, North Gate.

"General Dong, we have reached an agreement with the court. Now you and your subordinates can leave."

"In addition, I would like to remind you that from the moment you leave Jiangning, Qin Siyuan must have set off for Jingguo." Zhao Jun, the leader of the Death Soldier Corps stationed in Jiangning City, said to Dong Daofu and the generals.

"The Prime Minister went to Jingguo?"

"What is going on? Why did the Prime Minister go to Jingguo?" Dong Daofu asked repeatedly.

"Why? Of course it's in exchange for the terms of peace talks with Jingguo."

"Your Emperor Zhou Zhe of the Wu Dynasty has agreed to use Qin Siyuan as a pledge at He Yuanchang's suggestion in exchange for the terms of peace with Jingguo."

"Of course, in addition to having Qin Siyuan as a pledge, the conditions for this peace negotiation are also the need to pay tribute in large amounts of annual coins and cloth every year, and the division of Yuzhou to Jingguo as the final peace negotiation conditions."

"What, how could your Majesty agree to such conditions? This is completely an act of breeding tigers."

"No, I must return to Wudu immediately to ask His Majesty to terminate the peace negotiations with Jingguo."

When Dong Daofu said this, he immediately got on his horse and prepared to rush to Wudu.

But just when Dong Daofu was about to rush on his horse, he suddenly turned back and looked at Zhao Jun.

"Although I don't know why you told me this, when I return to Wudu, I will definitely lead my army to annihilate you and others again one day."

"Haha, then I will wait patiently for you, General Dong, to come to Jiangning as a guest again." When Zhao Jun heard Dong Daofu's words, he laughed and said indifferently.

Immediately, after Dong Daofu said these harsh words, he immediately left with a dozen of his subordinates and the main generals who were originally around him.

After Dong Daofu led a dozen main generals to leave quickly, Zhao Jun immediately summoned the main generals around him and announced.

"Instruct the entire army to assemble and prepare for war. As soon as the master's order is issued, our army will immediately march towards Wudu."

"Yes, General!"

One day later, in the early morning, on the official road about 200 miles away from Wudu, in the camp where the peace negotiation team led by He Yuanchang himself was located, suddenly soldiers in black armor rushed out from the surrounding mountains and forests.

"The enemy is attacking, there are assassins!"

The soldiers and generals in the peace negotiation team of the Wu Dynasty shouted loudly after discovering these black-armored soldiers who suddenly appeared.

In an instant, the entire camp where thousands of people were stationed became ablaze, and there were shouts of death and screams everywhere.

"Grand Master, it's not good, there is a bandit army attacking the camp, and our people can hardly resist it."

"We are escorted by hundreds of imperial guards. How dare thieves attack us so boldly?"

"Master, they are a group of black-armored and masked thieves."

And just as Grand Master He's men were reporting to He Yuanchang, several black-armored dead men outside had also killed the carriage where He Yuanchang was.

Phew!

There was a flash of sword light, and the guards around Grand Master He around the carriage were directly killed by the black-armored warriors.

"Master He, please don't go to Jingguo. You should go with me to see my master."

"Who is your master?"

"You'll know then."

This black-armored warrior knocked out He Yuanchang with a single blow of his sword, and then quickly rode away on a fast horse with He Yuanchang on his shoulders.

In another carriage not far from He Yuanchang's carriage, Qin Siyuan, who was traveling with He Yuanchang, was also knocked unconscious by a black-armored dead soldier and taken away.

After this group of black-armored warriors captured all the targets of their mission, they did not continue to fight the remaining Wu Dynasty soldiers in the camp. Instead, they quickly disappeared on the road on their fast horses.

"Commander, Grand Master He and the Prime Minister were both captured by thieves."

"Return to Wudu immediately and report this news to His Majesty."

After a fierce battle, the commander of the accompanying imperial army immediately began to gather the remaining soldiers, preparing to immediately report the news of their attack.

However, what these soldiers didn't know was that at the same time that they were attacked by dozens of black-armored dead soldiers who suddenly appeared, tens of thousands of troops also wearing black armor suddenly appeared in Wudu City, rushing towards Wudu City in a mighty manner.

All the city gates of the capital were attacked, and a fierce attack was launched.

"Quickly, guard the city gate. Don't let these thieves take the city gate away."

On the tower of the north gate of Wudu, the general responsible for guarding the city roared loudly.

However, at this moment, sharp arrows suddenly shot out. The young general guarding the city did not dodge quickly, but was shot through the head by a sharp arrow and fell to the ground on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, several black-armored dead soldiers seemed to fall from the sky and landed directly on the city tower.

Then, like a few hungry wolves rushing into the flock of sheep, they began to frantically harvest the lives of the surrounding soldiers defending the city.

As the flames of war were ignited in various city gates of Wudu, the news soon spread to the imperial city in the center of Wudu.

In the imperial palace, where the Emperor Zhou Zhe of the Wu Dynasty lived, the emperor Zhou Zhe was holding his beautiful concubine and still dreaming of Spring and Autumn Dreams, when he was immediately woken up by the anxious shouts of the eunuchs outside.

"Your Majesty, something serious has happened!"

"The thieves have arrived in Wudu!"

After Zhou Zhe, who was hugging a gauze woman, was woken up, he was about to get angry, but was instantly awakened by this last sentence.

"What? The thieves came to Wudu?"

"what is going on?"

"I don't know the specific slaves. I only know that there are bandits outside the imperial city who have invaded Wudu."

"Aren't there 200,000 forbidden troops guarding the city? How come they were suddenly attacked by thieves and came to Wudu?"

The disheveled Zhou Zhe was in a panic at this moment because the news was so sudden.

Yesterday, everything was fine, but at night, thieves suddenly entered Wudu.

Soon, as the battles at the major gates of Wudu became more and more intense, the imperial guards who had not fought for a long time were no match for the black-armored soldiers who were like wolf soldiers.

In just two hours since the battle broke out, the four north and south gates of Wudu were occupied by more than 50,000 black-armored dead soldiers summoned by Li Yang.

And when these groups of dead soldiers occupied these city gates, they immediately sent part of their troops to the city and continued to strangle the Wu Dynasty forbidden troops in the city.

I haven’t had time to write, so now I have to save the manuscript and wait for it to be put on the shelf, and I also have to write the ending of the old book, so this is the only way to update it.]
