Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 528: Second Hand Arrangement

"My two eunuchs, you have worked hard on this journey. I wonder who sent this imperial decree out of the palace?"

The young man behind the desk also spoke in a gentle tone.

A eunuch immediately replied.

"Of course it's our eldest son, who was handed over to us personally by Eunuch Zhu."

"Have you seen the Emperor?"

The two of them immediately shook their heads.

"Oh, then have you seen Prince Rui?"

"Prince Rui is in charge of maintaining order in Kyoto City. He is very busy, and we rarely see him."

"In other words, you brought this imperial edict directly from the palace and sent it here."

"exactly."

Lin Feng nodded: "Okay, thank you two eunuchs, you can go back now."

The two young eunuchs were stunned. What were they supposed to say when they got back?

When they returned to the palace, did they say good things or bad things?

If you want to say something nice, this treatment is obviously not enough.

To be honest, the only force left in Kyoto City to resist the rebels, apart from the Imperial Guards, is the Zhenxi Army.

If Prince Fu's rebel army enters the city, none of the emperor's close attendants will survive.

Zhao Shuo understood the key point and hurried forward, pulling the sleeve of a eunuch.

"Two eunuchs, come on, let's go outside and talk."

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief. After all, there were still sensible people around.

The two followed Zhao Shuo out of the house and stopped at the gate of the yard.

"My two eunuchs, when you go to Kyoto, please speak well of this to the Emperor. Tell him that the rebels outside the city are eyeing you covetously, and that the Zhenxi Army is temporarily unable to reach Kyoto's defense wall. I hope His Majesty will be understanding."

After saying that, he reached out, picked up two pieces of loose silver, and stuffed them into the hand of a eunuch.

Although the eunuch is young, he is an old hand. He can tell how much silver is in his hand just by shaking his hand.

The two of them didn't care about the amount. Even if the other party refused to give them any coins, they couldn't say too badly.

After all, it concerns one's own life.

"Thank you, my Lord. May you be well. I will be there soon."

Zhao Shuo smiled and nodded: "After returning to Beijing, please see my father and greet him on my behalf. It would be best if he could reply."

"Okay, Lord, I'll remember this."

The two eunuchs walked out of the courtyard, took the seven or eight palace guards who had followed them to announce the decree, and mounted their horses and left.

The Zhenxi Army did not move in Tianzhi Prefecture City, and the 40,000 rebels under the city did not move either.

Su Zhongwang and Niu Xiangqian prayed in their hearts that the Zhenxi Army would better not move.

As long as the two of them can delay the advance of the Zhenxi Army, it will be a great achievement.

They really didn't dare to fight anymore. Lin Feng always caused some accidents and made them sad.

There are only 40,000 people left now. If Lin Feng launches another attack at any time, it is unknown how many people will be left.

King Fu was very sad about this situation.

Seeing that Lin Feng's Zhenxi Army was very stable in Tianzhi Prefecture City, not only did they destroy nearly 100,000 of their own troops.

It also trapped 40,000 people outside the city and made them unable to move.

As for Kyoto City, due to the lack of manpower, it took a long time to capture it.

If he continues like this, when will he be able to ascend the throne and become emperor?

All the members of his own team who could move had been pulled over.

A lot of troops were left in the city that he occupied.

If all of them were mobilized, the order that had just been established would be destroyed.

Because his own regime was not stable, he needed the army to suppress it.

Prince Fu ordered all his confidants to gather in the palace hall.

Standing next to his desk was the chief military strategist Lan Yu, and sitting below him was the leader of the Black Turban Society, Miao Changfeng.

There were also General Luo Yunfei and General Qiu Jie of the Black Turban Army who rushed back from the front line in Kyoto.

These people formed the core organization of King Fu.

Prince Fu Zhao Zheng looked at the two generals sitting below him with a gloomy face.

"You promised me that you would capture the Kyoto Acropolis within two months, and now the time is almost up."

Luo Yunfei and Qiu Jie looked embarrassed.

"Your Highness, everything was going smoothly, but the Zhenxi Army intervened, putting us in a difficult position."

Luo Yunfei is King Fu's trusted general and the person who has followed him the longest.

Qiu Jie also shook his head and sighed.

"Your Highness, Boss, it's not that we don't care. The Zhenxi Army has tied up half of our military strength. With eight citadels in Kyoto, we don't have enough manpower."

Prince Fu remained calm and said, "As I recall, the Zhenxi Army only has 30,000 men, right? How about you?"

Miao Changfeng slapped the armrest of his chair and said, "Xiao Qiu, the elite Black Scarf Army only has a little over 100,000 soldiers. Where have you been?"

"Hey, Boss, the Zhenxi Army is a tough nut to crack. I even sent Niu Xiangqian over there, but it's still useless."

Qiu Jie spread out his hands with a bitter look on his face.

Luo Yunfei quickly stood up and bowed to King Fu.

"Your Highness, of our 120,000 elite troops, over 50,000 have been allocated. They are currently on par with the Royal Guards in the Acropolis, and are unable to break into the city for the time being. Should we redeploy some more troops to destroy the Zhenxi Army first?"

Prince Fu snorted coldly, "Once we withdraw our troops, aren't you afraid they will take advantage of the situation and counterattack?"

Everyone fell silent.

King Fu turned to Miao Changfeng and asked, "How are you guys progressing?"

"Your Highness, Tianzhi City is under martial law. Anyone who has just entered the city has been arrested. I guess they didn't have a chance to take action."

King Fu swallowed hard.

This situation is very unfavorable to him, and the war for the throne is about to reach a critical moment.

Who would have thought that a little-known guy would suddenly drag them into a confrontation.

In desperation, King Fu turned his gaze to the blue domain beside him.

Upon seeing this, Lan Yu bowed and approached the Talisman King, whispering.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I have already set up a game and will see progress in the next few days."

King Fu looked at Lan Yu's determined expression in confusion.

"But are you sure?"

Lan Yu bowed and said, "Your Highness, if we want to have a better chance, I think we should walk on two legs."

"Oh? Tell me."

"Your Highness, the current situation is extremely delicate. Lin Feng's Zhenxi Army has become the key to breaking the deadlock. In addition to the plan I have set up, you can send people to Tianzhi City and promise him high positions, generous salaries, fertile land, and beautiful wives. Perhaps you can make Lin Feng the last straw that breaks the camel's back for the Dazong court."

King Fu narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment.

"This person's behavior is strange, and there's always a feeling that he's out of control."

"Lin Feng is very clever. The Dazong court is on the decline and lingers on. Emperor Zhao Zhen is incompetent and incompetent. He, Lin Feng, is a good minister, and the prince is the wise ruler of this world."

After hearing this, King Fu was very happy.

"Yes, if it succeeds, I will reward you handsomely."

"I do not seek any reward. It is a great honor to serve the prince. When the prince ascends the throne, I will shamelessly ask for a reward."

"Hahaha, good, Mr. Lan is a man who knows how to talk."

Then he turned his face and his expression became cold and stern again.

"You must conquer the city as quickly as possible. When I ascend the throne, you will all serve as pillars of support and I will treat you as founding fathers."

Several people immediately bowed and praised loudly.

In the big prison of Tianzhi Prefecture, after Cui Ying was questioned, he was brought here and locked up with several women.

Cui Ying was very confused as he was living well at his second aunt's house but was suddenly imprisoned.
