Heroes of Troubled Times: Chronicles of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms

Li Keyong recalled that he and Ji Feng, Zhu Wen and the young man Chang Lin and other top masters gathered together to discuss the new national system. Realizing that the current political form could no longer meet the needs of the people, they began to imagine how to build a more fair, stable and prosperous country.

"We need a new way of governance that can balance power and the well-being of the people." Ji Feng stared at everyone with a firm look, "We must break the original concept and build a country that truly serves the people."

Li Keyong nodded and echoed: "Indeed, the traditional monarchy has come to an end. We need a more open and inclusive system that gives the people more rights to participate and make decisions."

Zhu Wen pondered for a moment, and a hint of hesitation appeared on his face. "Power makes people swell, and I can feel my desire getting stronger and stronger. However, if we don't restrict it, power will destroy everything."

The young man Chang Yonglin smiled and said, "General, you are right. Power does make people feel swell, but we can't give up the opportunity to change. We need to establish an effective supervision mechanism within the system to avoid abuse of power."

However, when night fell, the vision of the new national system had not yet been achieved, but a series of bizarre events occurred. Ji Feng and Chang Yonglin were suspected of being assassinated and died overnight. Li Keyong fled the scene urgently, leaving behind a mystery and struggling questions.

Zhu Wen stared at the scene in front of him in amazement. The desire that he had sealed in the depths of his heart resurfaced as if in another world, just to pursue power and absolute control. He began to have an irrepressible jealousy and fighting heart.

A few days later, Zhu Wen led Zhou Hui, Wu Dao, Zhu Quanyu, Han Zhu, medical officer Bian Yong, Taoist Zhang Taiyi, Zhu Dali and Luo Feilong, and other eight people, embarked on an adventure to Mingzhou City. They had a clear goal: to unite with the Wei army to attack Li Keyong and his army stationed in Mingzhou City. The whole mission was full of danger and uncertainty, but it also inspired everyone's fighting spirit.

On the way to Mingzhou City, they experienced a series of exciting scenes. The road along the way was strange and dangerous, full of hidden enemies and various tests. Everyone was full of vigilance and ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

"We must be careful and not be careless." Zhu Wen reminded everyone with a firm look in his eyes, "This is a battle with fate, but we have each other and believe that we can overcome difficulties."

Everyone nodded to show understanding and support. Zhou Hui grasped the bow and arrow, Kirishima adjusted the weapon in advance, Zhu Quanyu silently memorized the map, Han Zhu concentrated his mind, the medical officer Bian Yong was calm, the Taoist Zhang Taiyi silently recited the spell, Zhu Dali clenched his fists, and Luo Feilong grasped his double swords.

Finally, they arrived at the periphery of Mingzhou City. The city towered into the sky, like an indestructible fortress. Everyone secretly observed the movements of the army in the city, trying to find an opportunity to take advantage of. The atmosphere gradually became tense, and everyone's mood became heavy.

"Look! That's Li Keyong!" Zhou Hui pointed at the figure in the distance and exclaimed.

Everyone turned their heads nervously and looked in the direction indicated. Li Keyong stood on the city wall, looking down at the eight people who came with a sinister smile, exuding a fierce momentum.

"Do you think I will let you break in easily?" Li Keyong sneered, "Mingzhou City is my unbreakable fortress, you can't break the defense line at all!"

Zhu Wen frowned and thought about how to deal with it. The success or failure of this operation is related to the success or failure of the entire plan, and we can't pay a heavy price because of a momentary impulse.

"Everyone, please calm down." Zhu Wen said calmly, "We need a specific action plan and can't act rashly."

Under Zhu Wen's arrangement, Kirishima and Zhu Quanyu led 10 elite warriors disguised as merchants in Mingzhou City, mixed in the crowd and quietly explored the defense situation in the city. They knew that understanding the enemy's defense method was crucial to formulating a successful offensive plan.

Kirishima quietly stepped into an alley, leaning against the dilapidated wall, observing the busy market ahead.

"Are we disguised well enough?" a team member asked in a low voice.

Zhu Quanyu smiled and replied: "Of course! Our makeup skills are first-class. Even if I stand in front of you, you can't recognize me."

The team members felt much more at ease and followed Kirishima confidently to move forward. Everyone was full of tension and expectation. After all, this mission was full of dangers and was related to the success of the attack on Mingzhou City.

Walking through the bustling market, they always remained vigilant and observed the movements around them. The vendors in the market shouted and hawked, and all kinds of people shuttled among them. The scene was lively and crowded.

Suddenly, a figure quickly passed through the crowd, and Zhu Quanyu frowned slightly. "This person's behavior is suspicious, let's follow him!" He whispered.

The team members silently quickened their pace and followed the suspicious person closely. Finally, they came to a secluded corner. The man stopped, quickly exchanged some items with someone beside him, and then hurried away.

Kirishima, Zhu Quanyu and the team members hurried forward and carefully checked the items left by the exchange. They found a detailed city defense map, depicting the defense lines and layout inside Mingzhou City.

"This is exactly the information we need!" Kirishima was overjoyed, "It seems that the defense of Mingzhou City is not as strict as we imagined."

Zhu Quanyu nodded, with a sly look in his eyes. "This is a great opportunity. We can use this information to find the weaknesses of Mingzhou City and prepare for the siege."

The team members became excited. They began to analyze every detail on the city defense map and speculated on the best attack direction and method.

"If we launch a surprise attack from this position, we should be able to disrupt their defense line." A team member pointed to a position on the map and said.

"Yes, this plan looks feasible." Zhu Quanyu nodded in agreement.

In a short period of time, they developed a seemingly perfect attack plan, hopingThey were able to successfully break into Mingzhou City and win the victory.

However, the defender Li Cunxu in the city cleverly found a lost token, which made him alert instantly and realized that someone had sneaked into the city. He quickly gathered his men and determined through analysis and reasoning that the 10 elite warriors led by Kirishima and Zhu Quanyu were disguised as merchants from Mingzhou City.

Li Cunxu frowned and was determined to eliminate these lurking enemies. "Search around immediately and find them out!" he ordered.

The city was full of tension and anxiety. Everyone felt the pressure and looked at each other, trying to find the enemy hidden among them.

Kirishima and Zhu Quanyu sensed the breath of danger and were awed in their hearts. They led the team to quickly blend into the crowd in the city, doing their best to maintain their calmness and confidence on the surface.

"We must leave here as soon as possible, otherwise we will be in danger." Kirishima whispered to Zhu Quanyu.

Zhu Quanyu nodded, his eyes flashing with judgment and thinking. "Our disguise cannot be exposed, we must find a breakthrough."

They pulled the team members to quietly move to a relatively quiet place in the crowd, and continued to closely observe the movements around them.
