They say your illegitimate child is worthless, yet you rebel with seven wives?
Chapter 185 Confrontation
The crowd panicked and looked at Xu Risheng.
"General Xu, I understand the situation isn't very favorable for us, but... you can't lie to us!"
"Yes, we're... rebelling!"
"If you lie to us about the rebellion, how can we trust you in the future?!"
"We've all risked our lives following you, and now you're saying you were lying to us..."
It can be said that the main reason why Xu Family Army has reached its current scale is because of Xu Risheng.
Xu Risheng was the backbone of the Xu family army; before him, everyone blindly trusted him.
Therefore, when Xu Risheng initially said that he could wait until internal conflicts arose among the troops in Wanhai City, everyone believed him.
No one believed that Xu Risheng would deceive them.
However, Xu Risheng's admission at this moment left them with incredibly mixed feelings, and they didn't know what to say.
However, the look in his eyes as he looked at Xu Risheng already carried a hint of doubt.
Rebellion relies on sheer willpower; if that will dissipate, one may end up as nothing more than a rotten fish.
For Xu Jiajun, their trust in Xu Risheng was based on that one bond!
Xu Risheng has now destroyed his own prestige.
Let alone the few people in the field, if this news gets out, the entire rebel army of 50,000 will probably waver.
Xu Risheng, however, remained remarkably calm.
"Yes, I lied to you, but I won't explain my motives."
"But... I've found a way."
Xu Risheng said, "At most, tomorrow... tomorrow, the Yanhuang Army will arrive."
"As soon as the Yanhuang Army arrives, we will be able to win."
Hearing this, everyone was even more astonished.
I never imagined... that we would be combined with the Yanhuang Army.
"General Xu, what...what do you mean by this?!"
"Why did the Yanhuang Army come, and what gave them the right to come?"
Everyone was a little confused.
With their limited perspective, they naturally couldn't keep up with Xu Risheng's ideas.
Xu Risheng looked at them and asked seriously, "What do you think we should do in this situation?"
"Should we launch an attack?"
As soon as the idea was proposed, someone immediately objected: "No way! If we launch an attack, Wan Hai City only needs to defend!"
"With them stationed in Wanhai City, if we panic, the city will be impregnable and unassailable!"
Xu Risheng then asked, "So, shall we retreat?"
Upon hearing this, some people stood up and shook their heads vigorously.
"That's absolutely unacceptable!"
"We are able to attack the main city now because the imperial court has not yet reacted, and the main force of reinforcements has not yet arrived!"
"If we retreat, once the imperial army arrives, we will only face certain death!"
"At that time, they won't be granted amnesty..."
Xu Risheng spread his hands and sighed, "That's right, you all know that too!"
"Then what should I do?!"
"We can neither attack nor retreat... The difficulty of attacking Wanhai City is beyond our imagination."
"Then all we can do is... ask for help, right?!"
At this moment, a middle-aged man asked anxiously, "But even if we ask for help, the Yanhuang Army might not actually come to our aid..."
"We're stuck here. If the Yanhuang Army doesn't come to our aid, we'll have no way out!"
Do you think we have any way out now?!
At this point, Xu Risheng also widened his eyes, looked at everyone, and said in a deep voice, "We have long since run out of options!"
"It's not that we have no way out when we rebel!"
"Instead, when the Xue family arrived in Wanhai City... they summoned our relatives and friends to the docks and the mines..."
"At that point, we had no way out!"
Xu Risheng said in a deep voice, "You don't actually think that, given the way the imperial court operates... they would really grant us amnesty, do you?"
"We are risking our lives now, we are risking our lives to earn dignity!"
"The tougher we are, the more they will treat us like human beings... If we are not tough enough, then we will only..."
Xu Risheng looked at the crowd and said, "You're all doomed!"
"Therefore, we must still fight! We must still go all the way!"
"We have no choice but to ask for help!"
"Because there is a group of people leading the way for us, and that is... the Yanhuang Army!"
When Xu Risheng finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
They come from rural areas and small towns, and even if they have received an education, their perspective and outlook are inevitably narrow.
However, they are definitely not fools... How could they not understand what Xu Risheng was saying?!
"We're just placing our hopes on the Yanhuang Army..."
The elderly man surnamed Wang sighed, "I hope they really are willing to help us!"
"We are risking our lives to fight for a way to survive... but the Yanhuang Army may not be so lucky!"
To them, the Yanhuang Army was too mysterious!
Although their uprising was inspired by the Yanhuang Army's uprising in Shuiyun Town.
However, they actually did not know the specific origins of the Yanhuang Army...
In everyone's eyes, the Yanhuang Army seemed to have appeared out of nowhere!
The leader of the Yanhuang Army, the one known as the Young Master, is even more mysterious.
Nobody knows... his true identity!
Xu Risheng said helplessly, "So, I didn't tell you about my plan from the beginning..."
"When I realized we were in a hopeless situation, there was no other way... This was our last hope!"
Xu Risheng took a deep breath and said, "Now, the garrison commander in Wanhai City must think that we are going to continue this stalemate..."
"And they must already believe we're doomed!"
"So... I've decided, I can't hold back tomorrow!"
Xu Risheng's decision shocked everyone once again. "Tomorrow?!"
"That's right, it's tomorrow!"
Xu Risheng said, "Tomorrow, let's fucking beat them up!"
"The plea for help has been sent out for three days now. If the Yanhuang Army has reinforcements, they will arrive tomorrow!"
"If they don't come, we'll go all in and fight to the death!"
We are now in a truly desperate situation!
It's different from three days ago!
Xu Risheng was no longer willing to endure it; he was going to have a final showdown with Wan Haicheng!
If the Yanhuang Army comes to our aid...
Then, there will be a chance to win completely!
From then on, I leaped from fish to dragon, and the advantage was mine!
If they don't come, then it's a do-or-die situation!
……
Inside the city lord's mansion of Wanhai City.
He Kuangshan could no longer suppress his smile and summoned his advisor, a lean scholar with a goatee.
"Mr. Ye, what do you think of this letter I wrote?"
Mr. Ye immediately came up, glanced at it, and discovered that the letter was written by He Kuangshan to Su Changsheng.
The contents of the letter do not reflect the current situation...
Instead, they're already asking for credit!
In He Kuangshan's letter, he said that he could make Xu's army collapse in just seven days at most!
At that time, Su Changsheng will be able to take complete control of Wanhai City!
Even the rebel army could not escape!
They will all be killed...
Or, they could sell it directly to the Mo family and have them mine it in the vein!
In this way, not only can the rebellion be quelled, but a large sum of money can also be made!
He Kuangshan understood Su Changsheng quite well; for Su Changsheng, suppressing the rebellion...
That's really nothing!
They're just a bunch of lowly commoners, how much trouble can they possibly cause?!
However, if you can help the Marquis's mansion earn a large sum of money, that would be a great achievement!
"At that time, the Marquis should bestow upon me the surname Su..."
"In fact, it's quite possible that I will become the number one general under the Marquis's command in the future!"
"Haha, then I've really hit the jackpot in one fell swoop!"
He Kuangshan grinned widely.
Although Mr. Ye felt that He Kuangshan was celebrating too soon, the biggest reason he was able to rise from an ordinary private tutor to his current position was his ability to adapt to changing circumstances!
"Then I'll offer my congratulations in advance, General. With your talent and demeanor, you're destined to become the Marquis's foremost general..."
Mr. Ye, with an air of sincerity, said, "Looking across the entire Great Xia, there are very few who can compare to you, General!"
"It is a blessing for the people of our Great Xia Dynasty to have a general like him!"
"Those lowly people outside only knew of your reputation before. If they did...why would they still rebel?!"
He Kuangshan burst into laughter, "Well said! Well said!"
"Mr. Ye, you truly are the smartest person under my command. Well said..."
Just then, a voice came rushing in from outside.
"General!"
"The rebels have made a move!"
He Kuangshan's smile vanished instantly, and he frowned: "The rebels have made a move?! What are they planning to do?"
"Could it be that they're going to withdraw their troops?!"
If we withdraw our troops, then next time it will be other troops from the imperial court coming!
Then, achieving great deeds and establishing a career will have nothing to do with He Kuangshan!
Thinking of this, He Kuangshan couldn't help but become agitated, "What are they trying to do?!"
The soldier said, "General, the rebels have begun to rest and are fully prepared for battle..."
"They seem to be planning a full-scale invasion and a decisive battle with us!"
Upon hearing this, He Kuangshan was stunned!
Mr. Ye reacted quickly, immediately bowing and shouting, "Congratulations, General! Congratulations, General!"
"These traitors have gone mad! They're trying to give the general a huge gift!"
"The general will soon be able to achieve great deeds!"
He Kuangshan then realized what was happening, and his laughter grew even more unrestrained, "Haha, hahaha..."
"Okay, okay, okay!"
"These traitors have really lost their minds... They actually want to launch an attack?!"
"They're already at such a disadvantage, yet they still want to launch an attack?!"
"Mr. Ye, you're right, they're courting death!"
Thinking of this, He Kuangshan waved his hand and ordered, "Pass down the order! The entire army must fight to the death!"
"If the rebels dare to launch a full-scale attack... we will launch a counterattack! We will gather all our forces and annihilate their vanguard!"
"If they surrender, they will be spared from death upon disarming!"
He was already planning what would happen after Xu Jiajun surrendered...
A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"I heard there are 50,000 rebels this time... Haha, what a load of bull!"
"At most, there are only a few thousand people who can go to the mine to mine!"
"However, it's enough...enough to exchange for hundreds of thousands or even millions of silver!"
"In addition, some rebel soldiers can be sold directly to some barbarian soldiers... They want to use the heads of the people of Great Xia to exchange for military merits with their royal court!"
"And the female relatives of the anti-military personnel, hehe..."
In He Kuangshan's view, he had the upper hand this time and there was absolutely no possibility of defeat.
Unless someone steps forward to rescue Xu Jiajun!
Who would be so foolish as to support an army that is doomed to die...?
"Even if someone comes, they're just asking for death!"
"Even if a god descended to earth, he couldn't save these rebels!"
He Kuangshan sneered: "They will all become my war merits!"
……
The wind is howling!
Battle flags flutter wildly!
Both armies are preparing for battle, poised to strike!
A sense of tension permeated the atmosphere!
At this moment, Su Luo and Ye Qingyou arrived at a mountain not far from Wanhai City!
Seeing this, Ye Qingyou couldn't help but feel nervous: "Brother Luo, the real fight is about to break out!"
"Who do you think will win?!"
From this angle, one can see the entire battlefield immediately.
In fact, generally speaking, places like this are good positions on the battlefield.
We definitely have to be the first to occupy it!
However, this war is quite special... it is a siege of Wanhai City by the Xu family army!
Therefore, the place was empty, allowing Su Luo and Ye Qingyou to occupy it.
Being able to have a comprehensive view and see everything happening on the battlefield!
Upon hearing this, Su Luo smiled and said, "At the beginning, Wan Hai City will definitely have the advantage!"
"Because the troops in Wanhai City have now all arrived... and their numbers are not much less than those of the Xu family army!"
"Moreover, their equipment is far superior to that of Xu's army!"
"More importantly, they are backed by Wanhai City, which is a natural place to hide troops... They can rest and recuperate at any time!"
"As for the Xu family army, as the attacking force, they have no intention of retreating!"
"Even the slightest setback could cause morale to collapse and problems to arise..."
Ye Qingyou was originally full of fighting spirit, wanting to see the Xu family army tear Wanhai City apart.
After hearing Su Luo's analysis, her pretty face turned pale, and she said, "Then, according to what you're saying, Brother Luo, wouldn't that mean..."
"Xu Jiajun is about to be wiped out?!"
Su Luo shook his head and said calmly, "If it's only the Xu family army, then we're truly doomed..."
"However, who said that the Xu family army only fights alone?"
"Isn't... I'm still here?!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyou shook her head repeatedly, "Brother Luo, things have come to this point, please don't say such things..."
"I know you're capable, but you're only one person after all."
Su Luo smiled without saying a word, "Just keep watching, and you'll find out..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyou looked nervously at what was happening on the battlefield.
At this moment, the two armies have begun to clash!
The sounds of fighting rose and fell!
