There are rebels around the southern neighboring city. It is not that Duan Wanming is unable to eliminate them, but that he feels it is unnecessary.

Because there are too many rebels in the Yanfeng Kingdom at present. Even if he wiped out the rebels around Nanling City, rebels from other places would come here. Therefore, as long as those rebels did not threaten the safety of Nanling City, Duan Wanming did not take them seriously.

And the rebels seemed to be very sensible and were not close to the city walls of the south.

It is precisely this pattern that has always made Duan Wanming so sure that even if the rebels in the city were temporarily transferred, the rebels outside the city would not dare to attack them in the south. After all, the defenders in the city were only temporarily transferred, not destruction. There will always be a time when they come back. If the rebels come, they will only come and never come back.

However, Duan Zeyun was still a little worried.

In the past, the rebels around the southern neighboring city were indeed quite "honest" and did not dare to approach their southern neighboring city, but that was the past when the rebels got crazy and could do anything.

Especially after they know that the defense in this southern neighboring city is extremely empty, they are more likely to develop malicious intentions.

Duan Zeyun wanted to persuade his father, but Duan Wanming was already a little crazy at this time. He would never think about anything other than to catch Zhao Xuan. Seeing this, Duan Zeyun could only sigh secretly, hoping that the rebels would not make the idea of ​​Nanling City at this time.

Duan Zeyun could understand his father's stubbornness. After all, his father placed all his hopes on controlling Zhao Xuan. It can be said that controlling Zhao Xuan is not only a matter that Duan Wanming is concerned about, but also a matter that concerns their Duan family's future. Duan Wanming must not ignore it. This matter is too important.

Therefore, it is reasonable that Duan Wanming has such a mad behavior.

Under Duan Wanming's order, the last group of defenders in the southern neighboring city hurried out of the city and launched a carpet-style search towards the imperial capital in order to find Zhao Xuan in a short time.

At this time, a valley more than 100 miles away from the southern neighboring city was scattered and numerous simple sheds were built. Inside and outside the sheds, there were people with pale faces and thin skin and dressed in tattered clothes.

These people are one of the rebel forces around the neighboring city in the south. The leader of this force is named Wei San. Before he became a bandit, he was a blacksmith with a brute force that is difficult for ordinary people to reach.

When Wei San first came to the fore, he did not think that he would have his current status. At that time, he was just to fill his stomach.

But his strength is far beyond ordinary people, which allows him to perform well every time in battle. In addition, he is also lucky and did not die on the battlefield, which makes him get better and better and have his current status.

The position under the butt is different, so the ideas will naturally be different.

Before, Wei San only wanted to fill his stomach, but as the leader of an uprising army, he wanted to expand his team and occupy a larger territory.

In today's chaotic times, it is actually easy to expand the team, because there are too many refugees who cannot survive. As long as he can provide a bite of food, many people will come to join us.

However, when the team grows, how to support it is also a problem. After all, the rebels are still far from the fighting power of the court. Once the team is too large, it will attract the attention of the court. In such battles, they often end up in failure.

At the same time, due to the lack of food, he was destined to be unable to take in too many refugees.

But Wei San was unwilling to give up, or in other words, many leaders of the rebel army were unwilling to give up the idea of ​​expanding their team. Now in this chaotic world, who doesn’t want to fight? Especially those of them who already have the team.

In order to expand the team, these leaders came up with a solution, which was to capture the city.

As long as they can occupy a city, they no longer have to wander around. With a base, they can attract more people, and at the same time, they can also obtain a large amount of money and resources in the city. With these resources and money, they can naturally support more people.

However, it is not easy to occupy a city, because every city has the imperial army stationed, and their equipment and combat effectiveness are not as good as that of the imperial army. In this case, it is naturally extremely difficult to attack the city.

So far, I have never heard of several rebel forces that can occupy the city.

But Wei San doesn't believe in evil!

If others can't do it, he can't do it even if he doesn't believe it. He is full of confidence in himself.

Because of his frequent position of activity, he was closest to Nanling City, so he focused his target on Nanling City.

However, ideals are good, but reality is cruel. Before he could attack Nanlincheng, he only fought with the Nanlincheng army several times in the field, and his team suffered heavy losses. Once, Wei San almost died on the battlefield.

Such a blow made Wei San gradually awaken and realize the gap between himself and the regular army, and he no longer had the idea of ​​capturing Nanling City.

But not long ago, this situation changed.

The old emperor is dead!

But the new emperor has not yet confirmed the candidate!

When Wei San learned the news, he was ready to move again.

The old emperor died but did not designate his heir, which means that the court is likely to fall into chaos. Such a situation is most beneficial to their rebels, because everyone's focus is on the imperial capital, and naturally no one cares about them.

Wei San therefore had the idea of ​​Nanlingcheng again. He sent someone to inquire about Nanlingcheng, but the feedback disappointed him:

The Nanling City is very stable without any confusion, so he naturally has no chance to take advantage of it.

Just when Wei San wanted to give up, he learned another news:

The eldest prince Zhao Xuan came to the south neighboring city!

When Wei San learned the news, he was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed.

If he could capture or break through the southern neighboring city, capture or kill the eldest prince Zhao Xuan alive, it would be so incredible. It would make his reputation among the many forces of the rebel army, and it would even make him the leader of all the rebel forces in the Yanfeng Kingdom in one fell swoop!

After having this thought, Wei San was ready to move again. Although he knew very well that it was difficult to fight in the southern neighboring city, he was unwilling to let go of this opportunity. This opportunity was too rare. If he could control all the rebel forces in the world, wouldn’t he be able to steal the throne and have an emperor?

This is much better than wandering around in the wild, and it is much more majestic than occupying a city.
