1After Wu Dayu left the yamen that originally belonged to him, he looked at the brightly lit city walls in the distance. There was still some distance between here and the city walls, but the shouts of hundreds of thousands of people still came from there.

Although he still did not know what the people from the Fengjue Country outside the city were planning, it was still the first time that Wu Dayu felt that the sturdy walls of the city could no longer give him a sense of security. He kept having the feeling that the people from the Fengjue Country outside the city could charge in at any time and take his life.

Wu Dayu had been the mayor of this city for many years. Although he was a noble Mayor, this place was, after all, the border of the country and the country, so it was very dangerous. Therefore, it was not a good job to be the mayor of this city.

Wu Dayu did not have much good feelings towards this Shangguan fellow with the same surname. In these past few years, Wu Yan had always been in a high position, and had been a Minister of the Ministry of Public Affairs for many years, he had thoughts of recruiting Wu Dayu, but Wu Dayu felt that Wu Yan's character and official character was problematic, so he had never thought to rely on it.

Therefore, after offending Wu Yan, Wu Dayu, for so many years, had always been his City Lord in this border region. No one had any interest in him, otherwise, with his qualifications, he would have long been able to be promoted to an official, or at the very least be transferred to a different, richer location to become a City Lord.

It was just that, in his heart, he felt that Wu Yan was beneath him even more. Wu Dayu also knew that if it wasn't for the fact that this was the border and the people of the Fengjue Country often took care of this place, it would be extremely dangerous.

But now, Li Yuangu actually thought that Wu Dayu was Wu Yan's man. If Wu Dayu knew what Li Yuangu was thinking in his heart, he would definitely be dumbstruck.

After that, he stood in place, and immediately called for his followers to come over to make the necessary arrangements. This time, he did not report anything to Li Yuangu or anyone else, but made his own decision. He knew that if he were to tell Li Yuangu and the others about this, they would definitely give him a reprimand.

However, the unease in Wu Dayu's heart was very strong, even if he had to risk losing his official, losing his head, he had to make some arrangements in advance. He had been a City Lord here for many years, and he still had some feelings for the citizens of this place, he did not want the people here to die under the Fengjue Country's hands, and even more so, he did not want them to be captured by the Fengjue Country, become slaves, and live a life worse than death.

Therefore, even if he didn't think for others, he would still think for the commoners. If his worries became true, he could save as many people as possible.

Of course, if his worries didn't turn out to be true, then he was certain that he would be criticized. However, he couldn't care less now.

Wu Dayu had been a City Lord here for many years, and although he was not liked by the people above, but after being an official here for so many years, he definitely had his own direct bloodline and connections. And now, it was time for him to use these things.

Just that, their goal was different from Wu Dayu. Wu Dayu had busily made preparations, so he wanted to save a few more citizens while in danger. As for the others, they made preparations to welcome the Fengjue Country's army that was outside into the city!

From a certain point of view, these people's preparations and goals were the complete opposite of that of Wu Dayu's. If the Fengjue Country's army outside the city were to enter, then the citizens of the city would definitely suffer, and there would definitely be a large number of casualties.

One was to save others, while the other was to kill. Their goals were naturally different.

And the ones who were preparing to welcome the army of the Fengjue Country outside the city into the city was precisely Liu Feng and the rest who had performed righteously in the yamen previously!

Their goal was not to kill the citizens of the city, it was Li Yuan Valley, and what they needed to do now was to open the city gate and welcome the army of Absolute Wind Nation into the city. As for what those troops would do when they entered, that was something they couldn't consider, since their goal was to let the army in so that Li Yuan Valley could defeat the people of the city. If that was the case, Li Yuan Gu, as the head of the army and the highest commander of the frontlines, would definitely not have a good ending.

After all, the war this time was extremely important, and could affect the situation of the two nations in the next few years. Furthermore, the Emperor had quite a lot of support for Li Yuangu, under such circumstances, if Li Yuangu still lost this battle, it was obvious how angry the Emperor would be.

and the others had no enmity with Li Yuangu, at least, no enmity existed between them and the people of the Fengjue Country. Furthermore, they were not familiar with the people of the Fengjue Country, and what they did was only because they received an order from someone, and the person who gave them the order was none other than the Department's Minister, Wu Yan!

Li Yuangu's judgement was correct, among those people in the yamen, there were indeed Wu Yan's people. It was just that, while he thought it was Wu Dayu, in reality, it was only Liu Feng and a few others.

The wrong judgement of the target, had also directly caused Li Yuangu to make a mistake when deciding on a course of action.

After all, Wu Yan had already been a Minister of the Department of Public Relations for many years, and had a great amount of power. Therefore, it wasn't too difficult for him to insert some people into the army, and there were also different ways of placing people in the army.

Therefore, Li Yuangu thought that with the Emperor's support, he could easily tidy up the army and eliminate all the people that Wu Yan and a few others had planted into the army.

As a matter of fact, he had already taken it for granted, and the only people he could eliminate were those who were already in the surface. He did not discover many real people that were concealed very deeply, so some of his actions, in the eyes of Wu Yan and the others, seemed extremely laughable. As such, Wu Yan and the others only watched him suffer, no one stood out to oppose the Emperor's authorization to Li Yuangu, because they knew that Li Yuangu, who did not have a deep foundation in the army, would not be able to completely control them in the short term.

As for how long it would take, Li Yuangu would naturally have more control, but how could Wu Yan and the rest give him that much time?

And now, Wu Yan had used Liu Feng, just to give him a fatal blow!

Liu Feng had previously gained Li Yuangu's trust by taking the initiative to assist Li Yuangu in reorganizing his troops. However, what Li Yuangu did not know was that Wu Yan had purposely arranged that, and it was only the sacrifice of a few insignificant pawns, to be able to get Liu Feng's trust in him. No matter how one looked at it, it was all worth it.

This was actually also the reason why Li Yuangu urgently needed support. As a Minister of War, he had been in the air for many years, so he naturally wanted to obtain some direct descendants, and since Liu Feng had taken the initiative to join them, and even exposed a few "important" people, he naturally began to think highly of Liu Feng.

And now, Liu Feng, who had obtained Li Yuangu's trust, was ready to take action after receiving his orders.

"Is everyone ready?" Liu Feng asked his trusted aide beside him.

"Prepare yourself. When it is time for the west gate to be changed, our people will open the gate. At that time, the troops of the Fengjue Country outside the city will be able to enter." One of his trusted aides said.2

Afterwards, you have to push this matter onto Wu Dayu. Just say that those people were lured by Wu Dayu, that's why they colluded with the Fengjue Country people outside the city. Liu Feng said.

Although they were already prepared to open the city gates, and let the Fengjue Country army outside the city enter the city, Liu Feng did not want to bear the burden of carrying the title of collaborator. Wu Yan also did not want to do the same, so they needed to place this title on others, and Wu Dayu was a very good choice.

First of all, Wu Dayu was a City Lord here, so he had the authority to place people in the group. Therefore, no one would doubt that he was the one who said this, and furthermore, Liu Feng was preparing to place a distant relative of Wu Dayu in the group that was going to change rooms tonight. At that time, if he said that this was done by Wu Dayu, there would definitely be more people who would believe him.

In addition, Wu Dayu had always been unwilling to rely on Wu Yan, which also made Wu Yan very angry. Therefore, he wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of Wu Dayu, and let others know what would happen to him.

Thus, when Wu Yan first thought about cooperating with the army of the Fengjue Country outside the city to enter the city, he had already thought about dragging Wu Dayu into the water.

Furthermore, in order to keep this a secret, Wu Yan didn't even directly reveal his identity to the people from the Fengjue Country. He only sent people to inform the people from the Fengjue Country that someone from the city would open the city gate and let them in.
