The Prodigal Son of the Empire

Since last night, there have been many soldiers surrounding him outside his inn.

But they did not kill, nor did they do anything else.

Just waiting outside, like this, like waiting for someone?

"Masters, what are your orders? How about I arrange someone to prepare some food for you?"

Lin Zhen waved his hand.

Not long after, a slender young man walked down the stairs on the second floor.

He was dressed in luxurious clothes and was full of nobility. He was clearly a young master from a rich family.

The shopkeeper recognized him.

This young master is generous, and yesterday he directly booked a good room.

The shopkeeper winked at him, what are you doing down here at this time?

The shopkeeper is quite responsible, and even since the chaos last night, he has specifically told the residents not to come out.

The young man was the first to come out, and he didn't seem to be alarmed yet.

He was about to say something more when he saw a shocking scene!

All the soldiers who were sitting below stood up and bowed to the young man!

"See your lord!"

The unison resounded loudly!

This young man is Wang Kang!

He stayed here last night. Unlike others, he slept very peacefully.

Lin Zhen, Yu Li, military adviser Meng Qian and other important people are all here.

Wang Kang waved his hand to signal them to get up, and then asked: "Is everything settled?"

"It's done."

Meng Qian said, "We have already taken over the defense of the city. The defenders in Pengcheng have killed or injured more than [-] people, and captured more than [-] people."

"The city lord's mansion in Pengcheng, the government office under it, and the major clans including the Peng family have all been pacified, and all the rebels have been killed. Now they are all under control."

"In addition, my lord, your wife has been properly arranged."

"The whole Pengcheng is completely under our control!"

Wang Kang asked: "There is no disturbance to the people, right?"

"No."

"Okay, this must be strictly disciplined. We will stay in Pengcheng for a while, and we must not arouse public resentment. It is not good for us."

"Yes!"

Everyone responded.

"Pengcheng was captured by us. Such a big news must not be concealed. It won't take long for it to spread, back to the country of Yue, and to Chen Tang."

Wang Kang said: "The next step is to step up the layout of the city defense, and pay more attention to the surrounding areas of Pengcheng."

"That's all I said. For other matters, we will make arrangements at the military affairs meeting."

Wang Kang stood up and said, "Now go to the City Lord's Mansion to have a look..."

[Author's digression]: The second update!

Chapter 671 Look at your performance!

Overnight, before everyone could react, Pengcheng changed hands and was captured by Zhao Jun!

Shock everyone.

Because this is something that no one would have thought of.

They all knew that Marshal Chen Tang led an army of 20 to attack Zhao Guo, and now there is no news that Zhao Guo counterattacked to their homeland.

What does this mean?

Could it be that Marshal Chen Tang's 20 army has been destroyed?

But how is this possible?

For the battle between Yue and Zhao, the people of Yue are optimistic.

But now it is this result.

Everyone is terrified.

There have been wars and disputes between Zhao State and Yue State for a long time.

It's a century-old grievance.

Now that the enemy army is invading, what good results can there be? If the worst is the case, they will all slaughter the city!

If things go wrong, there must be monsters, and now Team Zhao has not done anything about them.

Even peaceful.

But the more this is the case, the more afraid they are...

So did Peng Shouyi!

As the lord of Pengcheng, the highest administrative officer of Pengcheng, he understands what this means better?

It has been many years, and Zhao State has never invaded the territory of Yue State. Now that Pengcheng has fallen, what will be waiting for them?

After living in peace for a long time, I know how terrible the coming of war is!

In the City Lord's Mansion, all the government officials were locked in a hall, and the outside was guarded by heavy soldiers.

"My lord, what shall we do?"

"Why did the country of Zhao attack suddenly? Where is Commander Chen Tang?"
