Luo Yi said," The 200,000 soldiers staying in Jizhou is indeed a threat to us. However, if we express our dissatisfaction with Yang Lin's intention to suppress the bandits, I'm afraid that people will spread the idea of rebelling against the imperial court.”
"In that case, we can only let Liu Yu and the others leave Jizhou. If Liu Yu leaves, Jizhou will be safe."”
Sigh! Luo Yi stood up and shook his head." Liu Yu and I have some grievances in certain aspects. If I were to drive him out of Jizhou, I would really feel a little guilty.”
"Lord Marquis ~~~ This person is a tall tree that attracts the wind. We can't get involved.”
"Order the northern army to open an opening and let them go north.”
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
The fire was burning rapidly in the forest. The thousands of bandits attacking Wei Wentong retreated under the command of a single order. Only then did Wei Wentong breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Wei Wentong was soon shocked because thousands of acres of forest behind him had been turned into ashes. This was not the most important thing. The important thing was that there were tens of thousands of Sui soldiers in the forest.
Liu Yu, Wang Bodang, and Xiong Kuohai rode their horses and stood in front of Wei Wentong. They smiled and said,""Great General Wei, you should hurry back. I, Liu Yu, do not want to be enemies with your Great Sui. It's just that I don't want to die, so I have been fighting to the death to survive.”
Wei Wentong was so angry that his nose was almost crooked. He said angrily,"You killed dozens of my generals, and you actually said that you don't want to be enemies with my Great Sui. Are you deliberately provoking me?”
"Liu Yu, you thief ~~~"
"I'm going to kill you ~~~"
Suddenly, several screams rang out. More than a hundred Sui soldiers rushed out of the fire, their bodies in a terrible state. The one leading them was Wu Jianzhang, whose beard and hair had all been roasted.
Ah! Wu Jianzhang let out a miserable cry as he rode his horse toward Liu Yu with a steel spear in his hand.
"Brother Bo Dang!"
"Understood!"
Wang Bodang held the bow with one hand and the arrow was quickly placed on the bow. When Wu Jianzhang galloped over, Wang Bodang sneered, loosened his wrist, and shot the arrow quickly.
Whoosh!
Boom!
The arrow hit the horse's head squarely. Wu Jianzhang's horse collapsed to the ground with a loud thud. Wu Jianzhang, who was over fifty years old, was sent flying. After he fell to the ground, Wu Jianzhang instantly felt as if his back was about to explode. Under the intense pain, a stream of blood spurted out from Wu Jianzhang's mouth.
"Wangye ~~~"
Wei Wentong quickly went forward to help Wu Jianzhang up and said,"Your Highness, are you alright?"
"Liu ~~ Yu ~~ I'm going to kill you ~~~" Wu Jianzhang clutched his chest and panted.
"Old Prince, you've wanted to kill me for half a year. Why?" Liu Yu asked with a smile. Isn't it because of me, a citizen of the Chen Kingdom? Why don't you let go of my identity as a citizen of the Chen Kingdom and talk to me sincerely?”
"Thief, just say what you want to say!" Wu Jianzhang suppressed his anger and said.”
Liu Yu cupped his hands and said," Your Highness, why don't we make a deal? I, Liu Yu, can swear here today that I will leave Great Sui and never enter Yanmen Pass. In return, Your Highness will promise that the Sui soldiers will not chase after me."”
Wu Jianzhang and Wei Wentong were stunned by this sentence because Liu Yu was right. The Sui soldiers had killed Liu Yu because he was a citizen of the Chen Kingdom. If they put everything aside and let Liu Yu work for the Great Sui, it might not be a bad thing.
What Wei Wentong didn't know was that Wu Jianzhang had come to Jizhou to suppress Liu Yu, just to recruit Liu Yu. If Liu Yu had the heart to work for Great Sui, it would be a good thing.
Unfortunately, if Wu Jianzhang knew that this was just Liu Yu's delaying tactic, he would probably faint on the spot. As for Liu Yu's oath, it was even more ridiculous because Liu Yu did not take it seriously at all.
Wu Jianzhang took a deep breath and said,"I can't make the decision on this matter. You must come back with me."
"Impossible, your highness doesn't want to die. If I go back with you, I won't be able to decide whether I live or die.”
Liu Yu cupped his hands and said,"Your Highness, please think about it."”He turned around and said to the others,"Let's retreat."”
"Kill!"
Several Sui soldiers shouted and rushed towards Liu Yu with swords and shields in their hands. Who knew that Wang Bodang would hold four arrows in his five fingers and put them on the bow. After letting go, the four arrows directly shot through several Sui soldiers.
This scene shocked all the Sui soldiers. Although it was common to see a man with a hundred steps, it was rare to see four arrows with one bow.
Wu Jianzhang and Wei Wentong had no choice but to watch Liu Yu and his men disappear into the forest. Then, they turned to look at the sea of fire that covered thousands of acres. Wei Wentong shook his head and sighed."Wangye, I don't think we can stop him this time!”
"Why?"
"Liu Yu is heading north, so he's naturally heading for the northern desert. If we chase to the northern desert, the Turks will be on guard. After all, the northern desert is the border between the Turks and us.”
Wu Jianzhang shook his head and said," I can't interfere with this matter. If Liu Yu doesn't harm the people of Great Sui, there's no need for me to interfere with the rest of the matter."”
The military camp at the foot of the mountain!
Luo Yi, Yang Lin, Han Qinhu, and Wu Jianzhang, who had just returned, gathered together. Luo Yi sighed and said,""Old Prince, I have already informed the pass according to your instructions. There is no need to stop Liu Yu.”
Wu Jianzhang nodded." Thank you, Marquis Jingbian, for your support. This person has left Great Sui's territory. It can be considered that there is one less threat."”
Han Qinhu snorted." Old King, I think you're just taking it for granted. Liu Yu's power is weak now, so why would he say such useless things? If he becomes stronger one day, will he still be able to live peacefully with us?" Would they still be willing to stay in the north of the desert?”
Yang Lin shook his head." You can't put it that way. Since Liu Yu is willing to reimburse the court, can't we give the enemy a chance?"”
Wu Jianzhang nodded." That's right. King Reliance has a point. If you're still worried, I have a plan that we can use!"”
Hahaha, Luo Yi laughed." The old prince has been through hundreds of battles. The schemes he has thought of are also rare in the world. Please tell me everything."”
Wu Jianzhang said," The north of Yanmen Pass is a desolate land. If we send a general and a large army to guard Yanmen Pass after Liu Yu leads his men north, we will never let Liu Yu enter the pass in the future. This person's threat will be completely removed.”
Xue Wanjun, who was behind Luo Yi, had a change in expression. Yanmen Pass was also within the territory of Jizhou. If they sent a large number of troops to Yanmen Pass, it would be like stabbing a huge nail into Jizhou.
Luo Yi's expression also changed a little, but it was still within the acceptable range." I wonder who the old king is planning to send to Yanmen Pass?”
" King Reliance has many generals under his command," Han Qinhu interjected." For example, Wei Wentong, the Fourth Grand Guardian, has the courage to fight against ten thousand men. I think we can send him there."”
