Chapter 266 The storm is coming(1/2)
Under Luoyang City!
Three hundred thousand troops gathered, and Li Mi occupied Jinyong City in the east of Luoyang as a stronghold and once again surrounded Luoyang.
This time, unlike half a year ago, Luoyang suffered two consecutive defeats in just half a month, losing troops and losing generals, and his morale was extremely low. Luoyang people were panic. If nothing unexpected happened, they might fall soon.
"Congratulations to Duke Wei! Now there are only a group of defeated generals left in Luoyang. With Duke Wei's order, he will be able to conquer Luoyang in one fell swoop and achieve the eternal imperial career!" Pei Renji said respectfully.
Seeing that the Wagang was at its peak and Luoyang was in danger, Pei Renji couldn't help but be glad that he had made the choice. If he still followed Luoyang, Wang Bian's fate would be his today.
"Mr. Wei is wise and will definitely be able to unify the world and achieve a foundation for all generations!"
The generals were also excited. They thought that they were about to become founding heroes and that their glory and wealth were at their fingertips, so how could they not be secretly happy?
When Li Mi heard the compliments from everyone, he felt secretly proud and the feng shui changed. When he came to my house this year, he had never thought of his current status when he was in exile.
"Mi can be able to do this today with the support of all generals. In the future, the generals will be able to share their glory and wealth." Li Mi said with a full face.
"Thank you lord!" The generals were delighted.
"You lord, you're so happy!" Fang Yanzao hurried in with excitement on his face.
"Why are you happy?" Li Mi asked.
"Report to the lord, news comes from Jiangdu, Yang Guang... the tyrant is dead!" Fang Yanzao said excitedly.
"Yang Guang is dead?" Li Mi asked in disbelief.
The generals were also in an uproar.
"How is this possible if Yang Guang dies?"
Everyone was surprised.
"This is serious?"
Li Mi's sharp eyes were filled with a hint of expectation.
Fang Yanzao nodded heavily, and then told the story of what happened in Jiangdu City.
"God really helped me!" Li Mi stood up suddenly.
"good!"
The generals of Wagang cheered.
Yang Guang passed away. The clouds that shrouded everyone were swept away. Although everyone rebelled, there was a shadow in everyone's heart. After all, Yang Guang's reputation was not obtained through benevolence and righteousness.
"Yu Culture and!"
While everyone was cheering, Li Mi gently spit out a name from her mouth.
This little person who was not taken seriously by him now has taken over Yang Guang's full strength in Jiangdu, and he has another strong opponent since then.
"Lord, now Yang Guang is dead and there is no master in the world. I'll ask the lord to ascend the throne to the emperor. At that time, the heroes in the world will gather to respond and unify the world." Wang Bodang bowed and said.
The generals' eyes lit up, that's it! Yang Guang is dead. Isn't this the best opportunity now?
In the look of everyone's expectation, Li Mi shook her head: "Now Luoyang is in front of us. Our army is sure to win. The top priority is to conquer Luoyang. Before Luoyang is defeated, don't mention the throne!"
When Yang Guang died, Li Mi was of course happy. But he was not overwhelmed by excitement. Luoyang was right in front of him. If he missed the opportunity to enter Luoyang because of his busy ascending the throne at this time, he would regret it for life.
The generals of Wagang thought about it and realized that they were reckless.
"The lord is wise!" The generals of Wagang were amazed.
When everyone only saw the immediate benefits, Li Mi was able to remain calm, which was indeed an extraordinary person.
Li Mi nodded with satisfaction, encouraged the generals, and looked at Mr. Yin, who was standing quietly beside him.
In fact, Li Mi was already moved at that moment and wanted to agree, but when she saw Mr. Yin shaking her head calmly, she woke up in her heart.
Fang Yanzao quietly observed this scene and couldn't help but sweat. No wonder Mr. Yin was so respected by Li Mi. In comparison, he was indeed a little worse.
Frowning, Fang Yanzao thought to himself and said, "Now that Yang Guang is dead, the only husband, is dead. Why don't we spread this news to Luoyang? I believe that Luoyang will be in panic. If it is to capture Luoyang, it will be easy."
Li Mi's eyes lit up and she glanced at Fang Yanzao with approval.
"It is not enough to just spread to Luoyang. How can such a huge and satisfying news not be shared with the people of the world?"
Li Mi sneered.
"What does lord mean?"
Fang Yanzao asked.
The generals also heard it.
"Send the fast cavalry immediately to spread the news all over the world."
Li Mi's face showed ruthlessness.
Among the counties in the world, there are many counties loyal to Yang Guang. I believe that these stubborn people will definitely have different choices after hearing Yang Guang’s death!
"The lord is wise!"
The generals changed their minds and were impressed when they knew Li Mi's plan.
As long as Yang Guang dies, those who claim to be loyal to the emperor have no excuses and persuade them to surrender will be much easier. At that time, Wagang will be able to obtain the territory of several counties without a single soldier.

"Take! Dodge!"
On the tall Luoyang city wall, Luoyang soldiers who were waiting for battle watched the huge scattering machine throwing out a large piece of huge object and shouted loudly.
Luoyang is tall, and ordinary siege methods are not very effective. Only such a catapult can cause huge damage to the Luoyang defenders.
According to past experience, Luoyang defenders looked for cover to hide.
"boom!"
The giant objects scattered in the air and turned into thin sheets of paper. The white papers were flying all over the sky, floating in the air.
"What is this?" Huangfu Wuyi was puzzled.
In order to defend Wagang's attack, he had been on the city wall for several days and nights. At this moment, he happened to see this scene. Wagang's trencher threw out the huge rock, but paper in the sky. It was abnormal and it would be a monster. Huangfu Wuyi suddenly felt a deep doubt in his heart.
At this time, a piece of paper turned leisurely in the air and floated to Huangfu Wuyi. Huangfu Wuyi grabbed the paper and spread it out and looked like it was struck by lightning.
"The emperor is dead? How is this possible?" Huangfu Wuyi was frightened.
Immediately, Huangfu Wuyi saw the papers in the sky falling like white snow. There were still many papers floating towards Luoyang City. Wagang was insidious and chose the upper wind direction when putting papers.
Huangfu Wuyi instantly thought of Li Mi's conspiracy. Regardless of whether the news was true or false, if everyone in Luoyang knew about Yang Guang's death, people would be in chaos. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but say anxiously: "Transfer our military orders, all soldiers should not look at the contents on the paper. The paper will be collected immediately."
"Yes!" A large number of soldiers carried out orders.
But the paper in the sky drifted away with the wind. The soldiers tried their best to collect it, and a large amount of paper still flew to thousands of households in Luoyang City.
After a while, paper as high as a hill was piled up in front of Huangfu Wuyi. Huangfu Wuyi stretched out the torch in his hand. The paper burned with a bang. The flames rose three feet high.
The fire was burning with a slight burst sound. In addition, all the soldiers were silent. They stared at Huangfu Wuyi silently. Obviously, many people had secretly watched the contents during the process of collecting papers.
Huangfu Wuyi slowly raised his head, his eyes became more and more scarlet under the light of fire, and he said in a deep voice: "I know what you want to ask? To be honest, I don't know whether the content on this paper is true or false. Regardless of whether the news on this is true or false, Li Mi's purpose is to make you feel confused and want to take the opportunity to capture Luoyang. Do you want Li Mi's conspiracy to succeed?"
The soldiers shook their heads slowly.
"From now on, all soldiers will not be disguised, and the number of patrol soldiers will double. We must defend Luoyang City." Huangfu Wuyi shouted.
"Yes!" The soldiers shouted and immediately stood firm at each position.
After repeated inspections, Huangfu Wuyi was slightly relieved and hurriedly ran towards the Luoyang Palace. He believed that there must have been news in the palace due to such a big disturbance.
At this moment, rumors were already flying in Luoyang City, and a large number of soldiers gathered paper all over the city. How could such a big noise not be noticed? Even so, there were still many fish that missed the net.
At this moment, the news of Yang Guang's death had already spread in Luoyang City. Although Luoyang citizens were surprised, they were not sure whether the news was true or false.
However, even if it is true, Luoyang citizens don’t care, because Luoyang City is besieged again, and the price of rice in the city has soared, and it has risen to 3,000 yuan for rice, and there is still no market price.
The citizens of Luoyang who are on the line of hunger and death are in danger of their own life and death, and they have no time to pay attention to the emperor's life and death.
The papers in the sky danced with the cold wind, as if they were peerless dancers, like elves in the wind, wanting to find the most exquisite stage.
Some papers choose wide streets, while others choose high-end and wealthy papers, but there is a special paper that is unwilling to be despaired. She wants to find the most perfect place to end her air journey in the limited flight time.
Suddenly she saw a beautiful palace, which was beautiful and magnificent. Isn’t this the ideal place?
The paper danced hard in the air, and finally arrived above the palace and rushed towards the most magnificent palace. It was the stage that truly belonged to her. She was destined to show her peerless dance posture on this supreme stage.
"Huh!" A cold wind whistled.
The paper quietly floated into the palace by the wind, and a sharp turn of 360 degrees came beautifully, slowly falling, ending a short life.
However, her curtain call set off an endless storm in the imperial city!
Xia Hongye was originally a wealthy businessman in Luoyang. His family had a huge asset of 10,000 yuan. Although he had money, he had a low status. He usually envied the merchants who owned the King of Dai Jinling in Daxing City.
However, an opportunity to change his destiny was placed in front of him. In order to raise military expenses, Yang Tong actually ordered that he could be awarded an official position as long as he paid the money.
Although it was a false title but no real power, Xia Hongye did not hesitate at all and immediately withdrew 100,000 yuan from the Imperial Bank and donated a fifth-rank official.
Today is Xia Hongye’s first court visit, and he thought secretly: “What should I do to do to come to court frequently? Will other officials laugh at me? What should I do to use my talents to make all officials value it, and will the King of Yue appreciate it?”
Thinking of this, Xia Hongye couldn't help but feel ashamed, lowered his head, glanced at the edge of his eyes, and saw the paper under his feet, and his body trembled.
