C53 Difficulty Entering the City (1/2)
After Guo Ziyi's two biological sons died in battle, they took in two foster sons who had outstanding battle strategies and schemes. As the great marshal of the army of the world, he entered the Changyang City. As for the Fenyang City, he handed it over to his two foster sons to take care of.
General Guo Qian and General Guo Long were both in control of half of the military power in the Fenyang Manor, so Guo Ziyi could be at ease with them. They were very loyal to Guo Ziyi, and would visit the Changyang City personally every year to stay for a few days, to state their military affairs and show their filial piety.
Guo Nan did not have a deep impression of his two uncles. When they went to the Prince Guo's Mansion to stay, Guo Nan always spent time and effort outside and did not socialize with them much.
”Brother Dugu, it looks like there's quite a bit of trouble. Guo Qian and Guo Long are holding their own and did not send anyone to welcome me. When the time comes, they will not listen to my commands!” Guo Nan sneered.
Dugu Hong nodded his head, and laughed: ”Young Master Nan, with your methods, I feel like someone is about to suffer.”
”The Guo Family Army is my grandfather's Guo Family Army, now that this old man has led his troops to suppress Qin Qiong, he can't care about the matters here, and can only rely on myself.”
”Don't forget, there's still Uncle Xiang and I. My strength is not good, but Uncle Xiang is in Li Tangguo, and is invincible. Even if it's Yuan Huan, Master Yuan, Uncle Xiang will be able to win. ”
The Uncle Xiang that Dugu Hong spoke of was the middle-aged man that had once injured Qin Qiong with a single palm strike. She was strong.
Hearing that, Guo Nan revealed a happy expression: ”Uncle Xiang is that powerful?”
”It's nothing. You'll know when you get to the Tianwu Academy. Among the younger generation, you have the strength of a fifth level alchemist.” Dugu Hong laughed.
Guo Nan secretly felt helpless, this father has roamed the Wucheng Mainland, what have I not seen before?
The group continued to drive, and everyone had some complaints about no one coming to greet them. Some of the more active people vaguely felt that something was wrong.
The fifty li was not too far, it only took half a day.
Fenyang City appeared in Guo Nan's eyes.
He, Dugu Hong and the Uncle Xiang rode on top of the big horses as they walked at the forefront of the group.
The Fenyang City was heavily defended, the city walls were thirty meters high and thick, and the city gates were forged out of fine steel. On the walls, the well-equipped Guo Family stood like a bronze man, looking very powerful.
Seeing the three big words ”Fenyang City”, Dugu Hong praised with a beaming smile, ”Young Master Nan, I have heard of your great name for a long time. ”This is a super military fort. It would be extremely difficult to attack such a huge city.”
”Of course, there are no ordinary citizens in the Fenyang City. All of them are from the Guo Family's army. The old emperor Li Yuan is afraid of our Guo Family, and it's precisely because of the existence of the Guo Family's army that he's unable to eat or sleep soundly. ” Guo Nan's face revealed a proud look, but, his face quickly darkened, he had already reached the city gate, and after walking a few hundred meters, he would reach the Fenyang City's gate, so how could no one come out to welcome him?
An armored general appeared on the wall and shouted towards Guo Nan's army: ”Who are you? This is the Fenyang City, we do not welcome troops from the north, please take a detour! ”
In truth, these fifty thousand garrison s were also part of Li Shi's personal guard force that he had gifted to Guo Nan. The banner they carried was the flag of the imperial army. The army from the north referred to the direct line of descent of the imperial army.
Hearing the man's words, Guo Nan's face turned cold. He spurred his horse forward, and under the city gates, he looked up at the man, and killing intent appeared in his eyes. He roared: ”Open your dog eyes and see clearly, this daddy is the heir to Duke Feng Yang, Shoulder King with One Word Guo Nan! I order you to open the gate within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, otherwise I will chop off your dog head! ”
Guo Nan's voice was filled with powerful spirit force, and spread across a few miles. The soldiers on the city wall all heard his words, and one by one, their gazes fell upon him.
”Young Prince Guo Nan?”
”It's indeed the Young Prince. Fuck, what's going on? Once the Young Prince arrives at the city gates, won't General Qian and General Long come out to welcome him?”
”The Young Prince massacred everything in the Changyang City, he helped Li Shi to ascend the throne, and was bestowed the Shoulder King with One Word's title. His words, are equivalent to the words of the Emperor!”
”The Marshal led his troops to attack the Duke of Qin. I had already guessed that the Young Prince would come to take charge of the military, but General Qian and General Long probably wouldn't be willing.”
The soldiers discussed in hushed voices.
Hearing Guo Nan's roar, the general's face changed, and he quickly disappeared from the wall.
