Chapter 66 Changes in the Northwest

On top of the city, the middle-aged general looked angry and unwilling.

Originally, 30,000 Shenwu guards, led by Grand Master Wen Zhong, entered the other three prefectures to quell the rebellion and wanted to regain the lands of the other three prefectures.

But no one expected that the so-called civil uprisings in the other three prefectures were not ordinary rioters at all, but organized rebellions.

They hid their strength, set up ambush, and set up a net to wait for the divine guards.

As soon as Shenwuwei entered the land of Sanfu, he was like entering a cage, and was attacked by traitors from all directions.

These rebels have all gone through some basic training, are well-organized, and are not afraid of death.

It's not an exaggeration to call him a rebel.

There are many masters hidden among them, including several great masters.

All of a sudden, Shenwuwei was caught off guard.

Moreover, these rebels also ambushed hundreds of thousands of troops on the periphery, cutting off all the Shenwu Guards' escape routes, and wanted to completely annihilate the Shenwu Guards.

If the Shenwu Guards hadn't been elite enough and forced their way out when Grand Master Wen Zhong fought to the death, the thirty thousand Shenwu Guards might have been completely wiped out.

In this way, the Shenwu Guards also suffered heavy losses, with only less than 10,000 of the 30,000 troops left, most of whom were injured.

If this was not a long-planned conspiracy, even a middle-aged general would not believe it even if he killed him.

After Grand Master Wen Zhong heard what the middle-aged general said, his expression did not change at all.

This is a problem that even a middle-aged general can see, let alone a grand master who has been a leader in three dynasties.

After taking a look at the dense crowd of rebels outside the city, Grand Master Wen Zhong looked at the middle-aged general with a cautious expression: "Chen Sheng, I promoted you with my own hands. Now I have a favor for you."

"When the rebels attack the city later, I will use all my strength to hold them back. You can choose some men to break out and return to the capital."

"Report to your Majesty what is going on here, and tell him that I heard that Zhong has betrayed the divine grace."

When Chen Sheng's middle-aged general heard what Grand Master Wen Zhong said, he immediately shook his head: "Grand Master, if we want to break out of the encirclement, it should be the Grand Master who breaks through."

"The Grand Master is the pillar of respect for Heaven in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If something happens to the Grand Master, something will happen to him."

"Half of the sky in the Great Zhou Dynasty collapsed."

"Please also ask the Grand Master to focus on the overall situation and prepare to break out."

The middle-aged general Chen Sheng said sincerely.

Some other generals and soldiers who were following Chen Sheng also spoke up and said in unison: "Please put the overall situation first and prepare to break out."

Seeing that the generals and soldiers asked him to break out of the encirclement, Grand Master Wen Zhong felt both moved and desolate in his heart.

As a commander-in-chief, it was Grand Master Wen Zhong's luck to be so loved by his subordinates.

But looking at it from another perspective, as a commander-in-chief, he heard that one day he would ask his subordinates to plead for a breakout. Isn't this a tragedy?

He brought these 30,000 divine warriors out of Luoyang, but was unable to bring them back again.

This is the tragedy of being a commander.

Grand Master Wen Zhong looked at everyone, shook his head and said, "Any one of you can break through, but I am the only one who cannot break through."

"As a grand master who is a veteran of three dynasties and an important minister of the country, if I allow some rebels to flee, I will be beaten."

"How does this make the world view our imperial court?"

"What do you think of me, Wen Zhong?"

Grand Master Wen Zhong glanced at the crowd and said.

Grand Master Wen Zhong knew that others could break through, but he could not.

Because he was the grand master of the current dynasty, an important minister of the auxiliary country, and a veteran of the three dynasties holding a golden whip to beat the king. He represented the face of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

If even he, the grand master, was beaten by the rebels and fled, then not only would he lose his personal honor and disgrace, but also the face of Great Zhou.

In that case, everyone in the world would say that the Grand Master of Zhou Dynasty could not even deal with a group of rebels and was beaten and fled in all directions.

Everyone would think that the Great Zhou Dynasty had really reached the point of sunset and falling apart.

By that time, the majesty of the imperial court in the hearts of people all over the world will be gone.

Grand Master Wen Zhong cannot bear such consequences.

Therefore, even if he died in battle, Grand Master Wen Zhong could not take a step back.

"But……"

The middle-aged general Chen Sheng wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Grand Master Wen Zhong.

"Nothing but, this is my Grand Master's order. Even if you break through and return to the divine capital, no one will say anything."

"I know what you are thinking, but you should also understand what I mean."

"Besides, do you think the rebels outside the city will let me, the Grand Master, break out and return to the capital of God?"

Grand Master Wen Zhong cast a profound glance at the rebel camp outside the city.

Grand Master Wen Zhong was a veteran who had experienced ups and downs in three dynasties, and his government and scheming were as good as any other minister in the dynasty.

Judging from the changes in the situation in the four northwest prefectures, Grand Master Wen Zhong knew that someone did not want him, the Grand Master, to return to the court.

"Grand Master, if this is the case, then we will follow the Grand Master and fight to the bitter end."

"Thirty thousand Shenwu Erlangs have all died in the four northwest prefectures. As their commander-in-chief, if I return to the capital like this, how will I face their long-awaited family members, and how will I face the Twelve Shenwu Guards?

Other colleagues?”

"I'm afraid that by then everyone will think that I, Chen Sheng, am a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death. He abandoned his 30,000 men and fled back to the capital of God."

"This is not what the general wants to face."

"If the grand master insists on ordering the last general to break out of the siege and return to the divine capital, then Chen Sheng should ask the grand master to give the last general a golden whip!"

Chen Sheng's middle-aged general knelt down.

Sometimes, living is more painful than dying.

Chen Sheng was unwilling to face such pain.

He was a military commander and the commander of thirty thousand troops.

He could not leave the thirty thousand men under his command and return to the capital alone. His fate was the same as that of the thirty thousand men under his command, which was to die in battle.

Even if I die, I will have no regrets.

Grand Master Wen Zhong looked at Chen Sheng who was kneeling down with a firm expression on his face, shook his head and sighed, "That's all, then you go pick a few smarter soldiers and let them take the opportunity to break out and return to the capital of God!"

"As for you, just stay with me and give your last bit of blood to this great week!"

Grand Master Wen Zhong also stopped forcing him.

Now Xi'an Fucheng has become an isolated city, deeply surrounded, and everyone knows the consequences of staying behind.

That is definitely life or death.

Now that Chen Sheng has made his choice, there is no reason for him to stop him.

"Yes, Taishi."

"The general will select candidates now and prepare them to break out."

Seeing that Grand Master Wen Zhong had changed his mind, Chen Sheng's middle-aged general immediately got up and went to select candidates to break out of the encirclement.

Grand Master Wen Zhong looked in the direction of Luoyang, the capital of the gods, and showed a wry smile.

After three dynasties, I have experienced many storms and waves, but I never expected that my final destiny would be in these four northwest prefectures.

It's true that success and failure are all stormy.

I'm afraid I won't have the chance to return to Luoyang this time.

Huhuhu...

At this time, waves of horns sounded, and the rebels outside the city were seen approaching the city gate in dense numbers.

"The sky is dead, and the yellow sky must stand."

"If you are in Yichou, the world will be blessed."

Crazy and hot shouts spread throughout the fields outside the city.
