I, who plundered the heavens, have a hundred thousand dead

Chapter 55
……

On the night when the military reinforcements surrounded Lin'an, groups of black armored soldiers suddenly appeared in Jiangning City.

These black armored soldiers acted neatly and had the same goal, and went to different gates of Jiangning respectively.

The Wu Dynasty defenders stationed in Jiangning City were extremely shocked when faced with these black armored soldiers who suddenly appeared from the city.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"What's the matter? Where did these black armored soldiers come from?"

Due to the large number of black armored soldiers who suddenly appeared, coupled with the combat effectiveness and will to fight are also extremely strong.

Therefore, the defenders of the Wu Dynasty stationed at the gates of Jiangning City were quickly wiped out.

At the same time, the news about the destruction of Jiangning City was still sent out of the city by these defenders.

The next morning, Jiangning City, Su Mansion.

"Father, something is wrong!"

"What's the matter, so panicked."

"What a big deal! Our Jiangning City was occupied by a group of thieves last night, and all the guards in Jiangning were wiped out last night. Now there are a group of black armored soldiers patrolling the streets."

"What, Jiang Ning was captured by thieves last night!"

"Then do we have any losses in the line?"

"It's not clear for the time being, this group of thieves on patrol does not allow anyone to walk on the street."

At the same time, in the courtyard where the Su family's big house is located.

"Miss, it's not good, our Jiangning was occupied by thieves, how can this be good!"

"I heard that those thieves are fierce."

"Jiang Ning was occupied?"

"Yeah! There are a group of black armored soldiers patrolling the streets now, and no one is allowed to walk on the streets."

As the news spread quickly, the entire Su family soon learned of the news, and then the old man of the Su family also summoned all the core members of the Su family in the ancestral hall of the Su family.

"Grandfather, now that Jiangning City has been occupied by thieves, what should we do with the Su family's staff!"

"Yes, father, after I heard that Lin'an City was occupied by thieves, the thieves committed all kinds of crimes in Lin'an City, burning, killing, looting, and many wealthy businessmen had their homes seized... And my Su family in Jiangning City is a big family, this... "

"Okay, let's be quiet. Look at all of you, you are so useless. Haven't these thieves yet entered the gate of my Su's house?"

"Right now, the most important thing for us is to figure out what the thieves who have occupied Jiangning City are for. If we can save money and avoid disaster, my Su family can only give up part of their family property."

In Jiangning City, Kang House.

"Master Consort, it's not good, Jiangning City was occupied by thieves, and our house has been surrounded by thieves."

"The thieves occupied Jiangning City? When did it happen?"

"It should have been last night!"

"The thieves in Lin'an City have not been settled, and now there are new thieves in Jiangning City. There must be some connection between the two."

"Master Consort, what should I do now?"

"Just wait and see what happens."

Kang Xian is not only the concubine of the Wu Dynasty, the dean of Jiangning City Men's College, but also one of the founders of the Secret Investigation Division, the largest intelligence agency of the Wu Dynasty.

The other founder was Qin Siyuan, who had lived in Jiangning City for several years.

However, Qin Siyuan had already left Jiangning two months ago and returned to Wudu to report.

Right now, Kang Xian has the biggest background in Jiangning City.

And Li Yang secretly summoned a group of dead soldiers, and after raiding several city gates that occupied Jiangning, he let these dead soldiers form a team and surrounded the residences of some important dignitaries in the city.

Among them, Kang Xian was the biggest dignitary, as well as the county government of Jiangning City and several other dignitaries.

A few hours later, in the Wudu Palace, the urgent report about the destruction of Jiangning City also spread to the emperor's imperial study.

"What? Jiangning was also captured by bandits?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, last night, Jiangning's Secret Investigation Division broke through the siege overnight to spread the news to Jiangning, and then quickly sent it to Wudu overnight."

"Quickly invite Prime Minister Qin to the imperial study."

"It's Your Majesty."

Soon, in less than half an hour, Qin Siyuan came to the imperial study in the palace.

"Prime Minister, Jiangning City has also been destroyed by thieves. Is there any connection between the thieves in Jiangning City and the thieves in Lin'an City?"

"Your Majesty, a preliminary judgment shows that the thieves in Jiangning City and the thieves in Lin'an City must be related in some way, because Jiangning City was captured by the thieves when my dynasty sent troops to encircle and suppress Lin'an."

"The two gangs of thieves must be connected in private, and their goal should be to share the pressure of the gang of thieves in Lin'an City."

"After all, this Jiangning City is one of the closest counties to my Wudu, and it is the only way to go south from Wudu."

"Prime Minister, the bandits in our Wu Dynasty are rampant right now, not only occupying Lin'an, but now also occupying Jiangning City, which directly threatens the safety of Wudu. I hope the Prime Minister can solve this serious problem in Wudu as soon as possible."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will send troops as quickly as possible to quell the rebellion in Lin'an and Jiangning, and I will not let these thieves affect our military plan for the Northern Expedition."

In Qin Siyuan's heart at this moment, he still believed that the robbery between Lin An and Jiang Ning must have been a small move by some people in the court behind the scenes.

Otherwise, how could Lin An and Jiang Ning be captured by bandits overnight.

This is to say that there is no inner response in the two cities, which no one would believe.

"Prime Minister, let's not mention the matter of the Northern Expedition for the time being. The most important thing right now is to quell the civil strife in Lin'an and Jiangning as soon as possible, rather than wasting military power on the Northern Expedition."

"I understand that I must quell the civil strife between Lin An and Jiang Ning as soon as possible."

Soon, Qin Siyuan withdrew from the imperial study, and then summoned the [-] forbidden troops from Wudu to go to Jiangning, preparing to quell the civil unrest in Jiangning as quickly as possible.

In the entire Wu Dynasty, in addition to the thousands of defenders in various counties and cities, there was only the regular army, the Imperial Army.

The total number of banned troops in the Wu Dynasty was as high as 80. Of course, this is only an external claim, and the actual number must be greatly reduced.

After all, the number of corrupt officials in the Wu Dynasty was quite large, and the fact that they falsely reported the number of the banned army and secretly ate the money and food of the banned army existed in the Wu Dynasty for a long time.

Therefore, among the 80 imperial troops in the entire Wu Dynasty, the actual number should be only about 60.

In addition, excluding those guards stationed on the frontier and possessing real materials, the number of guards that the entire Wudu can call should be only 30.

And Wudu was the largest city in the entire Wu Dynasty. The entire Wudu was inhabited by a million people, so the number of forbidden troops guarding Wudu was also 20.

Excluding the number of 20 banned troops, the Wu Dynasty can currently send only about [-] troops.

Previously, the Wu Dynasty had dispatched tens of thousands of forbidden troops to recapture Lin'an City. Now that Jiangning's troubles have resurfaced, Qin Siyuan directly dispatched 5 forbidden troops in order to quickly quell the civil unrest.

The purpose is to quell the civil strife between Lin An and Jiang Ning as soon as possible, so as not to affect his plans for the Northern Expedition.
