Chapter 245 The Purpose of the Rebellion
"Are you ready to give up? After you get the news, hide away to reduce the risk of infection.
I will definitely find a way to come back and save you. Don't give up!" Wang Wu shouted to the skinny monkey.
"Okay, if we can survive, who doesn't want to live? I'll listen to you. If it's really as we think, I'll hide in a safe place and wait for you to find someone to rescue me." The skinny monkey said with a smile.
The two discussed the details of how to deliver the message.
The skinny monkey then took the telescope again, looked at the city gate of Longcheng through it, and determined where he should be to send the message so that Wang Wu could see him.
After confirming these, he stuffed the telescope into Wang Wu's hand and said casually: "Brother, I'm going."
After saying that, he rode his horse and headed towards Longcheng without looking back.
Wang Wu could only stand there helplessly, watching the skinny monkey's back as he walked away.
Then, he stood in the chosen position, holding the telescope without stopping, staring at the gate of Longcheng, waiting for the skinny monkey to appear at any time.
After an unknown amount of time, a skinny man appeared outside the city gate of Longcheng, hunched over, and waved in the direction where Wang Wu was standing.
Wang Wu held up a telescope and watched his movements.
After waving his hand, he slowly flipped the papers in his hand, page by page.
The paper read: No one survived in Dragon City. Hundreds of thousands of sick corpses were found on the streets.
The epidemic will surely spread! Tell General Xu immediately to prepare the herbs in advance and take precautions!
The rebel leader and soldiers are missing, so they must have already abandoned the city and fled. Judging from the wheel tracks and traces, they should have fled towards the grassland.
Wang Wu was shocked by what was written on the paper and was heartbroken by his companions' efforts, but the news was too important, so he could only suppress the grief in his heart and go back to report the news.
Wang Wu suppressed his grief and rode his horse as fast as he could back to the military camp.
When he arrived at the military camp, he did not go in.
He just stood far outside the military camp and shouted to the gatekeeper: "I am Wang Wu from the scout camp! I am ordered by General Xu to go to Longcheng to gather information. The military situation is urgent, please tell General Xu to meet me at the gate of the camp!"
Wang Wu rode his horse in place, shouting over and over again.
Everyone knew each other, and the soldiers guarding the gate also saw them when they left yesterday.
At this time, seeing that he was the only one coming back but not coming in, I knew that the situation might be more serious than I thought.
Without any delay, he ran to the military camp and reported to General Xu.
When General Xu heard the report, he went to the outside of the camp gate with Prince Li's confidant and adjutant.
Seeing Wang Wu, who looked exhausted and haggard, General Xu wanted to ride forward, but was stopped by Wang Wu, who said anxiously, "General, don't come over!"
"What happened? You must have been ambushed. Why are you the only one back? Where is Skinny Monkey?" General Xu asked with concern.
Wang Wu saw that there were many people here, and he was afraid that speaking out rashly might disrupt the morale of the army, so he said, "General, please keep your distance and follow me."
General Xu did as he was told.
Away from the military camp.
Wang Wu then informed General Xu of everything he had seen and heard along the way, as well as the skinny monkey's situation.
"General, with so many sick corpses, the epidemic may spread. The skinny monkey is still waiting for me to save his life. Please come up with a solution as soon as possible!" Wang Wudao.
General Xu, Prince Li's confidants and adjutants were all shocked when they heard this.
Wang Wu continued, "Although I have not entered the city, I have come into contact with corpses along the way.
I was afraid that I had been infected, so I decided not to return to the camp for the time being.
I will isolate myself fifty miles away. If I have no symptoms, I will return to the camp. I hope the general will grant my permission."
After Wang Wu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
General Xu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, I'll have someone prepare some dry food for you."
After General Xu finished speaking, he ordered his adjutant to quickly prepare for the work.
After a while, the adjutant came over with a large bag of dry food.
General Xu used his inner strength to throw the package towards Wang Wu.
Wang Wu took the package and clasped his fists on his horse, saying, "Thank you, General. I will be leaving soon."
General Xu waved his hands helplessly. There was no other way. He also had to be responsible for the 20,000 soldiers behind him.
When the confidant of King Li heard the news, he just recovered from his shock and asked General Xu, "General, do you have any countermeasures? This is a serious matter. I must go back and report to King Li immediately."
"We should inform King Li as soon as possible. The rebel army has been silent for so long. Who knows how long those sick corpses have been exposed? How far has the plague spread?
Later, this general will find a military doctor to discuss ways to prevent the epidemic.
You should set off as soon as possible and go back to tell King Li the news.
Please ask King Li to make some preparations for us and prepare more medicinal materials." General Xu said with a frown.
"Okay, then I will set off immediately and will not stay here." King Li's confidant said.
"Okay, the situation is urgent, so I won't stay any longer. Please." General Xu said.
After receiving the accurate information about the rebellious army, King Li's confidant hurried back to inform King Li of the news.
He said goodbye in a hurry and rode his horse towards Zesheng County.
As the telescope was sent to the front line, King Li became more and more uneasy.
I always feel like something big is going to happen, and I feel inexplicably anxious every day.
Finally, on this day, my confidant, who had traveled a long way, came back.
It was Prince Li's confidant who had rushed back from the front line at full speed, day and night.
When the horse ran back to the palace gate, it was so tired that it foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground.
He was carried in by the gatekeeper.
As soon as King Li saw the miserable state of his confidant, he knew that something was wrong.
At the same time, there is also a feeling that my heart has finally settled down.
But the feeling of landing was not pleasant, it was very painful.
He hurriedly ordered the servant, "Call the palace doctor immediately! Bring the ginseng slices over!"
"Yes." The servant took the order and did it quickly.
As soon as the confidant saw King Li, he didn't care about anything else.
He quickly reported the news he had gathered from the front to King Li, and was taken away by the court doctor to treat the abrasion on his thigh.
King Li was also shocked after hearing this, "What a chaotic army! They are simply beasts!
These patients were left to fend for themselves!
What on earth are these damned rebels trying to achieve! Why fight a war or rebel without anyone around?
Short-sighted! Short-sighted! Mob!
"Beast! Beast!"
King Li was furious for the moment. He felt like he was about to cry because of his opponent's stupidity, and also felt a kind of pain that he didn't understand.
As for Daxia, although the royal family has few descendants, His Majesty is wise.
The former crown prince was also virtuous. Although he died young, he left behind an excellent successor for Daxia.
Under the emperor's governance, the ruler and his subjects were united and the politics was clear.
When the rebellion broke out in the Yue King's fiefdom, the momentum was swift and the rebel army quickly took control of the Yue King's fiefdom.
If you want to rebel, this start will lay a good foundation for the future. If you prepare well, you may not be without the ability to fight.
If the goal is to overthrow the imperial court, it is necessary to recruit soldiers and accumulate strength, then expand the territory to the surrounding areas, attack all the way, and approach the capital.
But these rebel troops, after capturing the fiefdom of the King of Yue, began to enjoy the fruits of victory.
He burned, killed, raped and looted in his fiefdom, committing all kinds of evil and completely not caring about the people.
This was obviously not an ordinary rebellion, but rather an attempt to exterminate Daxia.
