He remembered his father's advice to him before leaving: Never get too close to Wu Tianjiao, and don't have any connection with him. You can only use it and not make friends with him.
Because of this, he came to Fengcheng and kept hiding his identity. He never asked Wu Tianjiao for help. After the melee, he was no match for Yan Song, so he simply led his subordinates to hide in the Warcraft Forest.
The Warcraft Forest stretches for thousands of miles and is the largest primeval forest on the continent. It is full of monsters and towering trees.
Not to mention that Yan Song only has 3,000 troops, he may not be able to find their traces in the vast forest for a while.
Sure enough, after hiding into the forest of monsters, Zhao Siming quickly took the initiative and sneaked out to attack the parade Shura people from time to time, causing heavy casualties to Yan Song.
In a hurry, although he only brought more than 500 people, he was all elite.
One-on-one, Yan Song's black armored army is no match at all
Although he took the initiative from light to dark, as the weather became colder and colder, he encountered more and more troubles.
There is no food storage, no weapons and arrows to replenish consumption, and no enough medicine
Even the warriors did not even have winter clothes to keep warm, and non-combat casualties were getting bigger and bigger
Just when he was at a loss, Wu Tianjiao's advisers came uninvited to sell various materials and even information at great risk, which made him overjoyed, and both sides hit it off.
Lord, we secretly sneaked into the Windy City this time and did not meet the Lord of the City
After waiting for a long time, Duan Chao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the young master was not angry and said: But according to his adviser Xiong Yi, the city lord hopes to meet with the young master in person!
Oh, meet me in person?
Zhao Siming silently looked at the counselor behind him and understood what he meant. He wanted to say something, but looked at the warriors kneeling on the ground and closed their mouths tightly.
Well, thank you all for your hard work, go and have a rest!
Thank you! After saluting, Duan Chao and his party quickly retreated and waited to walk out of the gorgeous tent. Duan Chao realized that he was already sweating at some point
After listening carefully, confirming that Duan Chao and others had gone away, the strategist hiding in the dark said softly: Xiao Hou, even if the other party doesn’t mention it, his subordinates think that they should meet Wu Tianjiao in person!
Is this necessary?
Zhao Siming shook his head gently
Wu Tianjiao has a mysterious and powerful army of monsters, a large number of loyal followers and gold coins that seem to be squandering at will.
With a complex identity, such a person will never be able to win over with a few boxes of gold coins or a few beauties.
My little master, everyone will have his desires and shortcomings!
Seeing Zhao Siming shook his head, the counselor hiding in the dark understood what he meant: After all, he was also a condor man, and I think he would not sit idly by the Fengcheng by the Shura people, otherwise, if the court blamed him, he would not be able to take the blame!
After pausing for a moment, seeing Zhao Siming staring at him tightly, the strategist continued to whisper: Mr. Hou said that we can use Wu Tianjiao to talk about it. Yan Song stole his tavern and brewery. Of course, this is just an superficial reason, and a deeper reason. Yan Song, the lord who suddenly emerged, will take away his development space and core interests here!
Development space and core interests?
After pondering for a moment, Zhao Siming nodded softly, understanding that the counselor was right, and said: Meng Xin, how can we tie Wu Tianjiao to our chariot and destroy the strategy of the Shura Empire?
My little master, it’s actually very simple. There is a way that can not only meet Wu Tianjiao’s requirements, but also greatly benefit us!
Meng Xin, who was hiding in the dark, paused and said softly: I think, with the current war situation, even if Wu Tianjiao and Prince Wu are not integrated, Prince Wu will definitely not be happy to see Fengcheng completely fall into the hands of the Shura people!
Then what you mean is... Zhao Siming said in confusion
Grant the title! Meng Xindao: Please ask Prince Wu to submit the imperial court and issue an order to grant Wu Tianjiao title and grant Fengcheng his territory
Title!
After the accident, Zhao Siming nodded frequently, thinking that this was a good idea
As Wu Tianjiao's identity, it's nothing to grant him a title. He granted Fengcheng to Wu Tianjiao. With his territory, how could Wu Tianjiao not fight to the death with the Shura people in order to defend his territory.
Of course, I couldn't make the decision on this matter, so I could only send a letter to Xitian City and ask my father to come forward.
At this time, the wind city was about to come, and the wind was full of the building. Under the instigation of those who were interested, Yan Song, who had to pay bribes due to short clothing and shortage of food and clothing, became the subject of thousands of people and scolded him.
His Black Armored Army has become the object of hatred and revenge. Small conflicts against the Black Armored Army are becoming more and more frequent, and even if Yan Song strengthens the intensity and scope of patrols, it will be useless.
Slowly, the relationship between the Black Armor Army and people became increasingly tense. People were worried that they would suddenly be in trouble. They walked on the streets in a hurry, and they closed their doors as soon as the sky was dark.
At the same time, the Black Armor Army was always worried about being attacked by people. Even when they went to the tavern to drink, they were in a large group, and no one dared to act alone.
Inside the Black Armor Army, a helpless joke circulated
We must act with our brothers at any time and anywhere, patrol the streets together, facilitate and pick up girls together
Even when looking for a woman to have fun, at least two people have to act together.
One is romantic and happy, the other is holding a weapon and waiting for the condor to prevent the condor from suddenly coming in.
At the same time, Wu Tianjiao retreated all the parade guards, contracted their power and strengthened the defense of the castle.
In order to reassure the servants and subordinates of the family in Fengcheng, they simply asked them to take all their families into the castle to live temporarily
As a result, the slaves and subordinates were moved and worked harder
For example, Aunt An, who was responsible for sweeping the floor, used to wipe the floor only once a day, but now she doesn’t need to use the old butler Mu Shicai’s instructions to wipe it automatically three times a day.
Aunt Wu, who is responsible for buying vegetables, always praises the city lord how good he treats his servants whenever he goes to the market to buy vegetables. People are envious after hearing this. They keep asking whether Wu Tianjiao's mansion is still short of servants.
As time goes by, the situation in Fengcheng has not only not eased, but has become increasingly tense!
As more and more black armored troops were killed in attack, as the weather became colder, the black armored troops with short clothing were becoming more and more rude and their discipline became worse and worse.
On that day, just as Wu Tianjiao was leaning against a big chair and enjoying Xiao Moli's massage, the guards Chang Longgu strode in and out.
Adults, tavern owner Kim Yong-jeong, blacksmith and others are visiting!
Invite them in! Wu Tianjiao stood up and said: Xiao Moli, you are tired too. Go down and rest. The weather is so cold. Wear so little, be careful to catch a cold!
Looking at Xiao Moli's thin shoulders and thin clothes, a figure flashed through Wu Tianjiao's mind, and suddenly he remembered someone coming.
I remember when I first entered the Jinyang Palace and saw my first maid Xiang'er, Xiang'er's clothes were as thin as Xiao Moli.
But Pity Xianger is already...
Thinking of this, Wu Tianjiao felt ache in his heart, sighed and put his leopard leather coat on Xiao Moli.
Xiao Moli responded gently, and she rolled up her warm coat and stepped back lightly.
As soon as Xiao Moli left, a mess of footsteps came from outside the door. Wu Tianjiao looked up and saw Longgu bringing a large group of people in.
In addition to the tavern owner Kim Yong-jeong and the blacksmith, there are many strangers
There are men and women, old and young, there are almost hundreds of people in total
Hundreds of people came suddenly surprised Wu Tianjiao, but the expressions of people surprised him even more.
Some have dull expressions and muttering words, as if they have Alzheimer's disease
Some faces are gloomy and their muscles are stiff, as if someone owed him five million
Some of them had red eyes, and when they saw Wu Tianjiao, they burst into tears, as if they had seen relatives they hadn't seen for many years.
Uh! This... Jin Yongzhi, what's going on? After giving up his seat to everyone, Wu Tianjiao ordered his maid to serve tea to everyone, and then asked Jin Yongzhi who was closest to him
Sir, we can’t continue to live!
Jin Yongzhi gritted his teeth and said fiercely: A few days ago, sir, you borrowed a gold coin to buy land for me to build a hotel. I chose a good location the day before yesterday. I was going to pay the money yesterday but I knew that as soon as I went out yesterday morning, all the gold coins were snatched away by a group of black armored soldiers, and even two of the ribs were broken!
He said, lifting up his shirt, revealing dense scars and large pieces of blood stasis, as he kept frowning and coughing, he seemed to be very injured.
Break two ribs alive?
After carefully looking at Jin Yongzhi's injuries, Wu Tianjiao's face became heavier and heavier.
Jin Yongzhi is already in his fifties and is beaten like this. Even if he is treated in time, he will easily leave any sequelae.
It seems that Yan Song's black armored army is becoming more and more presumptuous, and can even use such a heavy poisonous attack on an unarmed old man.
After pondering for a while, Wu Tianjiao was about to comfort Jin Yongzhi, but unexpectedly, a girl in a long dress suddenly rushed out and knelt in front of him with a loud bang.
Lord City Lord, but when my father came back from hunting, he was slandered by the Black Armor Army to inform the people of Xitian City. He was beaten to death and could not get up after lying on the bed for more than a week. His injuries were getting worse and worse. If he was not treated, he would probably... The girl burst into tears and looked at Wu Tianjiao with eyes begging and said: Lord City Lord, please save Ke Liya's father, please!
Being slandered to inform the people of Xitiancheng?
Looking at the tears flowing, I saw Ke Liya who was still pity, Wu Tianjiao shook his head
It seems that after heavy casualties, Yan Song's black armored army has become a frightened bird
Even an ordinary hunter was beaten to death by them as a spy from Xitian City.
Miss Keliya, get up!
Seeing Ke Liya crying and kowtowing to her, Wu Tianjiao helped her up and said seriously: Don’t worry, I’ll send someone to treat your father immediately, don’t worry, it’s okay!
Wu Tianjiao said while winking at Longgu on the side. The latter understood and quickly came over to help Ke Liya, who was crying, to the chair beside him.
Next, seeing Wu Tianjiao agree to the request of the girl Ke Liya, people began to complain.
Some people say that all the food stored at home for winter was snatched away by the Black Armies Army, and the food at home has been out of stock for many days.
Some people say that their family members went to the Tras Forest to hunt and were caught by the Black Armor Army as spies, asking Wu Tianjiao to help redeem them.
Some people even reported that their daughter was humiliated and killed by a group of black-armored soldiers who were drinking and causing trouble, and asked Wu Tianjiao to make decisions for her.
Sir, if we continue like this, we really can't survive! Seeing that people complained, Wu Tianjiao didn't react for a long time, Jin Yongzhi knelt down while talking
To Ah, Lord City, save us!
Lord City Lord, as long as you take the lead, we will fight with them and kill them, the gang of dog-good beasts!
Yes, Yan Song's bullshit lord is simply a robber who has occupied our property, except for the city lord, no one is qualified to be our lord. Everyone is fighting with them!
People become more and more excited as they speak. They point directly at Yan Song, who is the lord, and ask Wu Tianjiao to make the decision for them in unison, hoping that Wu Tianjiao will eliminate Yan Song's power in one fell swoop like the Xiong family.
In their hearts, if there is a lord in Fengcheng, then it is Wu Tianjiao
Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm just a little city lord, and I can't fight against Lord Lord without ability
Wu Tianjiao quietly refused everyone's request. The situation is tense now. Who knows if there are spies sent by Yan Song among these urban residents? He doesn't want to leave any handle for the black armored army that is eyeing.
In addition, Yan Song and the people of Xitiancheng have not yet decided on the final victory or defeat
Take action now, even if you win, you will have to pay a lot of price. The people of Xitiancheng hidden in the forest are in vain. When both sides are both injured, it is the king to launch another fatal blow.
Lord... Seeing Wu Tianjiao refuse, people knelt down in disappointment, and let Yan Song's black armored army continue to mess around like this, and life will really not be able to survive.
Everyone, I sympathize with your experience!
Wu Tianjiao's eyes rolled, and he thought of an idea and said: Although I can't do anything, if anyone really can't survive, even if he finds my housekeeper to collect some food and clothes to protect the cold, even, if anyone feels uneasy, he can move to my castle to stay temporarily for a while!
Move to Fengbao for a while?
After hearing what Wu Tianjiao said, everyone's eyes lit up, and finally saw a trace of dawn. Wu Tianjiao was strong and gave the Black Armor Army a hundred bear galls. I guess they didn't dare to go to the castle to scatter.
People were happy, and Wu Tianjiao also showed a faint smile on his face.
Getting people's gratitude and support will definitely be of great benefit to your future plans, but the price is just some food stored and spare rooms.
If you plan carefully, you might even take the opportunity to make another profit
Because of this, he came to Fengcheng and kept hiding his identity. He never asked Wu Tianjiao for help. After the melee, he was no match for Yan Song, so he simply led his subordinates to hide in the Warcraft Forest.
The Warcraft Forest stretches for thousands of miles and is the largest primeval forest on the continent. It is full of monsters and towering trees.

After waiting for a long time, Duan Chao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the young master was not angry and said: But according to his adviser Xiong Yi, the city lord hopes to meet with the young master in person!

Seeing Ke Liya crying and kowtowing to her, Wu Tianjiao helped her up and said seriously: Don’t worry, I’ll send someone to treat your father immediately, don’t worry, it’s okay!
