Chapter 393 I hope you all come back safely
"According to the spies' careful investigation, there are more than a thousand red cannons."
When Wu Tian heard more than a thousand red cannons, he was stunned and stared at Dai Zong.
"You are not wrong. Dali Country has a thousand red cannons?"
Wu Tian didn't believe it. Modern weapons like the red-clothed cannon will not be available for at least three hundred years after the Song Dynasty.
He replaced Song and established Liang for almost ten years. Without him providing the drawings, it would be impossible to build artillery!
But there is no need for Dai Zong to lie to him.
Wu Tian's mind became more and more confused. After thinking for a long time, he decided to check it out personally and be safer.
Thinking of this, Wu Tian said to Dai Zong: "Send the order to disband the banquet, everyone will go back early to rest, and we will go straight to Guizhou tomorrow."
"yes!"
Dai Zong hurriedly went to convey Wu Tian’s order.
Although the generals didn't know what happened, they roughly guessed in their hearts that something must have happened to Lu Junyi.
They disperse.
The next day, as soon as the sky was dawn, except for the people who were taken in, the rest of the people boarded the train and headed straight to Guizhou.
Under Shu, Lu Junyi received the news in advance last night and hurriedly led the generals to greet him.
"I am incompetent. It is a great sin to let Your Majesty take a risk to come here in person."
As he said that, Lu Junyi was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Wu Tian.
"This is not your fault. If there are red cannons in Dali, then this matter is not a small matter. The red cannon was developed by me and I specially used it to conquer the world. All the drawings are only available to me and the Tang Long brothers who were supervised. Others cannot have them. Moreover, the Tang Long brothers only created thousands of doors. In such a quantity, just by distributing you and me, there is no much left."
"The spy said that there are a thousand red-clothed cannons in Dali, so I really want to see what's going on. Your six hundred gates plus the four hundred gates I brought should be enough to fight against Dali. When Dali comes to provoke, you go to fight in person and I hide behind and see, and you will know whether their red-clothed cannons are true or false."
Lu Junyi nodded.
Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and there was no movement in Dali Country.
Wu Tian was very confused. Logically speaking, the news of his visit to Guizhou should have been captured by Dali Kingdom soon. But they should start to act and be prepared, and they will not have no news at all.
Just as he was thinking, Dai Zong came in and bowed to Wu Tian and said, "Your Majesty, Dali State has withdrawn its troops from Guizhou."
Lu Junyi smiled and said, "Dingren is the Dali Kingdom who knows His Majesty's power. He is afraid of His Majesty's divine power, so he quickly runs away."
Wu Tian shook his head.
"I don't think so. Dali State has a thousand red cannons. Although the troops are fewer than us, they occupy the favorable terrain and form a balance of power with us. It is impossible to leave so easily. If I am not wrong, they will definitely carry out a conspiracy. If they pass the order, let the spies secretly monitor the movements of Dali State. If they find anything wrong, they must report it immediately."
"yes!"
Dai Zong goes down.
Another day passed, Dai Zong came in and bowed to Wu Tian: "This time, all Dali Kingdoms withdrew from Guizhou and headed for their own country. The people who had withdrawn had returned to their own country."
When the generals heard this, they couldn't sit still.
Liu Tang, the deputy general of Lu Junyi, walked out with a big sword and bowed to Wu Tian: "Your Majesty, don't think about it. The grandson of Dali Country knew that it was impossible to win, so he fled back to Dali Country immediately. Look, we should lead the army to chase after them immediately and kill all of them!"
"Yes, I think Liu Tang's words make sense. We should take advantage of their retreat and the team is in chaos and rushed forward."
Wang Ying stood up at this time and bowed to Wu Tian and said.
Then Qin Ming, Li Zhong and other generals who followed Lu Junyi begged Wu Tian to allow them to lead their troops to pursue the withdrawn troops of Dali Kingdom.
Wu Tian remained silent. Has Dali really retreated?
Intuition told him that this matter was probably not that simple.
"I can understand the intentions of all the generals, but we must make a decision before we can move in marching and fighting. We have not yet figured out the intentions of Dali and cannot act rashly."
As soon as Wu Tian finished speaking, someone immediately stood up to refute him.
"Your Majesty, isn't this an obvious thing? When Dali heard that His Holiness had come to his death, he immediately withdrew his troops. The vanguard had returned to Dali. He wasn't he going to escape, what was he going to do?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, please allow us to fight. Dai Zong, Lu Fang and other brothers have made many contributions to the elimination of the Nanyue Kingdom. They have all been named Dukes, and they are not allowed to fall behind. If Your Majesty does not allow us to send troops, I will kneel to death here!"
As they said that, they knelt in front of Wu Tian.
Seeing this posture, Wu Tian frowned.
"Brothers, it's not that I don't want you to make meritorious contributions, I just hope you can think twice before doing it."
Wu Tian smiled and helped the kneeling generals up one by one.
The generals refused to get up and said in unison: "If Your Majesty is still our brother, please allow us to lead our troops to pursue the Dali army. If we are defeated, we are willing to accept military law!"
Wu Tian looked at the situation and if he did not agree, he would probably have lost the final relationship between the king and his ministers.
"Well, since all the brothers are going to pursue the Dali National Army, I have nothing to say. But brothers, I hope you will listen to me and be careful when chasing. If you find anything, you will immediately withdraw your troops. I don't ask you to build a great contribution, but I hope you all can come back safely."
When the generals heard Wu Tian’s words, they got up and bowed to Wu Tian: "Don’t worry, Your Majesty, I dare not forget Your Majesty’s advice, and I will be careful along the way."
Wu Tian nodded and the generals retreated.
As soon as they retreated, they immediately summoned their troops to pursue the Dali National Army along the route.
The number of people dispatched was as many as 100,000, but these 100,000 people were under seven or eight generals, and these generals did not have a consent general to manage them. The scene was very chaotic and everyone pursued their own.
Dai Zong reported the situation to Wu Tian.
Wu Tian frowned and said, "The generals went to the war, but they were so chaotic. If they were attacked by the enemy, they would immediately disperse. Lu Junyi, you will go and convey my order immediately. You will lead all the soldiers who went to the war. Don't go in a rash way. Dali Country has red cannons, so as not to fall into the trap of others."
Lu Junyi nodded: "Your Majesty's words are kept in mind, so I will deal with them now."
After saying that, Lu Junyi left.
Wu Tian was still uneasy and always felt that something was going to happen.
