Chapter 34
It was completely within Qin Yu's expectation that Da Zhuang would have such a reaction.
He patted everyone on Da Zhuang's shoulder and said: "Everything I do is not for myself. If you trust me, don't ask anything. Help me send the letter safely. When the time is right, I will send it to you." Tell you everything you want to know."
"I can deliver the letter for you, but there is one thing I must know now."
"You said."
"City Master Huo suddenly rebelled, does it have something to do with you?"
Qin Yu was taken aback for a moment.
Regarding the matter of rebellion, he was indeed the one who proposed to Huo Yang.
Although he did not participate in all the siege process, he was the initiator of this rebellion.
Faced with Da Zhuang's questioning, Qin Yu didn't want to hide it from him.
"The sky is angry and the people complain, and the people are living in dire straits. You don't need me to tell you what the current Xuanling Kingdom is like."
"Such a rotten country, do you think it is necessary for it to exist?"
Although Da Zhuang already thought that this matter must be related to Qin Yu, he would still be shocked when he said it.
After collecting the letter Qin Yu taught him, Da Zhuang didn't say another word.
Turned around and walked out of the room.
Qin Yu wasn't worried that Da Zhuang would betray him, if he didn't even have this foresight, then his 10 years would have been wasted.
It's just that he didn't expect that after that day, Da Zhuang didn't say a word to him for a long time.
The whole person became very silent, like a different person.
Huo Yang read the letter sent to him by his uncle.
The two thoughts coincided.
They all plan not to send troops for the time being, but to firmly hold the western region first, appease the hearts of the people, develop their forces, and wait for the opportunity.
The reason why Huo Yang and the other five city lords were able to capture the entire western region in such a short period of time.
The main reason is that they themselves are from the western region.
They had the right time and place, and with the help of their connections in the past, they took over the entire West with almost no effort.
Xuanling Kingdom has millions of soldiers and horses, nearly 50 in the east, 20 in the south, and 15 in the north.
And the recruits from the west and the recent conscripts add up to less than 20.
If you go head-to-head at this time, the uprising will definitely be destroyed.
So their only task now is to firmly hold the western region and wait for the right time.
General Zhao Chengzhi of Zhennan wants to command troops to take back the western region, and Huo Yang has already received the news.
He knows Zhao Chengzhi quite well.
One of the most important reasons why this person can be called the Great South General of Xuanling Country is that he has never lost a single battle.
It can be seen from this that Xuanling Kingdom is determined this time, and must completely take back the western region.
Before receiving the letter from his master and uncle, Huo Yang was very distressed, worried that the western region would not be able to defend.
But when he saw the weapon manufacturing map that his uncle gave him in the letter, he immediately had great confidence in defending the city this time.
He handed over the drawings to the Ministry of War, which was in charge of making weapons.
Everyone studied carefully for two days and two nights, and finally figured out the manufacturing principle of this weapon, and then began to work overtime and rush to manufacture.
Every time a plane is completed, it will be sent to the frontline Yangjiang City immediately.
In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed.
Qin Yu has been busy with refining medicine recently, so he doesn't know what happened outside.
That night, Da Zhuang sneaked into Qin Yu's room after everyone was asleep.
Qin Yu was also a little surprised to see him coming.
Quickly asked: "You stay up so late, do you have something to do with me?"
"General Zhao is dead!"
"General Zhao? Is that the Zhennan Great General Zhao Chengzhi who has never been defeated?"
With a sad expression on Da Zhuang's face, he nodded and said, "He is the person I admire the most since I was a child."
"How did he die?" Qin Yu asked.
"I heard that he was killed by a very powerful crossbow, with thousands of arrows piercing his heart."
Although Da Zhuang didn't say the name of the crossbow, Qin Yu had already guessed what it was.
The blueprint in the letter he sent to Huo Yang last time was the Zhuge Liannu's manufacturing book.
Qin Yu is the most clear about the power of this weapon.
At the beginning, Zhuge Liang relied on this magic weapon to defend the city, and rescued Shu from embarrassment many times.
Considering that it is very difficult for Huo Yang to defend the city, Qin Yu gave him the manufacturing plan of this artifact for defending the city.
Now seeing that Da Zhuang was so sad because of the death of General Zhao, and thinking that so many innocent lives would die in this war, he even doubted whether such an approach was wrong.
"Da Zhuang, I ask you a question, you have to think carefully before answering me."
"go ahead."
"Do you think Huo Yang's rebellion was right or wrong?"
Da Zhuang thought for a while before saying, "If he rebelled for the sake of the common people in the world, then he was right, but if he rebelled for the sake of becoming king and defeating bandits, then he was wrong."
Qin Yu naturally agrees with Huo Yang's conduct.
Otherwise, he would not let Huo Yang complete such a major historical reform of changing the dynasty.
The answer given by Da Zhuang made him feel less suspicious of himself, at least he no longer felt guilty.
"General Zhao's spirit of serving the country with death is worthy of our respect. But his behavior of foolish loyalty is not worth our learning."
"During this period of time, I have thought a lot by myself. Xuanling Kingdom is indeed broken to the core. If they continue to rule, for decades, or even hundreds of years, the common people will not be able to live a good life again."
Qin Yu would not be surprised if these words came out of other people's mouths.
But speaking from Da Zhuang's mouth, he really has the feeling that he will be admired after three days.
"Thank you for understanding my reasons for doing this."
"You don't need to thank me. If I hadn't met you, I might have been a guard in the Prince's Mansion for the rest of my life, but now, I think I should change my way of life."
At this moment, Qin Yu found that Da Zhuang had really changed.
His eyes are no longer as confused as before, and full of confidence. Such a person may not be ordinary in the future.
A person's change, often like Da Zhuang, only needs an opportunity.
And his opportunity was that General Zhao, whom he had admired since childhood, died on the battlefield.
When Zhao Chengzhi died, all the ministers became panicked.
The other generals who originally wanted to participate in the extermination of Huo Yang's rebels also stopped talking now.
The monarch Xiao Ao was full of sorrow, he didn't know how to solve this battle, but he didn't want to hand over the western region to Huo Yang just like that.
And based on his understanding of Huo Yang, even if he wanted to resolve the war by ceding land, I'm afraid Huo Yang and the others would not appreciate it.
