Chapter 3882 The Military Advisor in the House
Xue Wanche is a naive person with no big ideas, but because of this, most of his dealings with people rely on intuition. Unless he is someone whom he trusts extremely, he would never be able to keep him by his side as a personal soldier. The mastermind behind the scenes was able to bury two nails beside him, which could not be done overnight. This not only required a long time to gain Xue Wanche's trust, but also required corresponding means.
There are only a handful of people inside and outside the government who can do this and have the motivation to do so.
And if these people want to harm the prince and plant "nails" around him, it will be easy...
He didn't have the time to accompany Xue Wanche to the north of the bridge to survey the terrain, and told him that someone would be sent to meet him later. He just had to follow his own arrangements, and then led his troops back.
Xue Wanche sent Fang Jun away with a depressed look on his face, and led the team to cross the bridge to the north. He said fiercely to the soldiers on the left and right: "When you get back, I will thoroughly investigate these two bastards and dig out all eight generations of his ancestors! I want to see who planted such a dead soldier next to me!”
What happened today made him, who had never been afraid of heaven or earth, feel frightened.
He was ordered to take the opportunity to assassinate Fang Jun, but the soldiers around Fang Jun bravely blocked the knife for him, and Fang Jun himself had superior force and sharp reflexes, so he escaped with his life. But what if the dead man received the order to assassinate him, Xue Wanche?
He can be sure that once the dead soldiers take action, there will be no way for him to survive...
This made him extremely irritable. Who dared to plant dead soldiers around him and take the opportunity to assassinate Fang Jun, intending to put the blame on him?
Just think about if Fang Jun was assassinated today, then Xue Wanche would be the biggest suspect. From now on, all the generals and soldiers of the Youtun Guard and Navy will fight him to death, probably all the time for the rest of their lives. Faced with the assassination of these diehard Fang Jun...
Mother!
How can I bear this?
Don't let him find this person out, otherwise his balls will be crushed...
The battle on the pontoon bridge was very brief and ended as soon as the rabbit rose and the falcon fell, but it still attracted the attention of the Tibetan Huqi at the southern bridge.
When Fang Jun led the remaining soldiers back, Zan Po had already arrived like a whirlwind. Seeing the blood stains on Fang Jun's body, she was shocked and said: "Is the Duke of Yue okay?"
Fang Jun sat on his horse and nodded, with a gloomy face, and said: "It's no big deal. These two Japanese commanders will drive some of the prisoners to the north of the Weishui River and hand them over to the custody of Xue Wanche's troops. At the same time, Xue Wanche's troops will support our army with some grain. You want Responsible for receiving.”
Zanpo nodded repeatedly, but in her heart she could not figure out the intricate relationship between the Tang army: the British prince Chen Bing, the chief minister of the Tang Dynasty, sat and watched the fierce battle in Tongguan, indifferent to the life and death of the prince, and watched the fire from the other side. It was obvious that he had ulterior motives and a big plan. Then the generals under his command openly helped Youtun Guard detain the prisoners, and also provided food supplies...
In this back and forth fight, who is the ally and who is the enemy?
The people of the Tang Dynasty are too narrow-minded, which makes me, a Tubo man, confused. At the same time, I also secretly made up my mind that if there is ever a day when we turn against the Tang people, we must remember not to play any conspiracy. In this regard, we are beyond our reach. , just save your strength and rush forward to fight...
After bidding farewell to Po Zan, Fang Jun and his soldiers galloped back to the camp. He first asked about Wei Ying's injuries. When the doctor told him that it was just a flesh wound, not a muscle or bone, he felt relieved, returned to his residence, and went straight to the camp. Wu Meiniang's tent.
It rained continuously, the drainage in the tent was not smooth, and everything was damp and dark, making it extremely uncomfortable.
With nothing to do, Wu Meiniang took a hot bath, leaned on the soft couch wearing a smooth and dry silk robe, shook her fan gently, and sipped tea slowly, which was very comfortable.
Fang Jun opened the door and entered, waving to the maids in the tent: "Get out."
"Here!"
Several maids lowered their eyebrows and blushed a little. After the blessing, they all left with rustling footsteps and closed the tent door with their backhands...
Wu Meiniang sat up straight, covering up the exposed large piece of snow-white skirt, and retracted a pair of slender feet as white as jade under the silk robe. She blushed and spat: "It's broad daylight, can you please stop tossing? It's so embarrassing."
Fang Jun was stunned for a moment, then understood and said angrily: "What are you thinking about? I'm not in the mood!"
He walked closer, sat down on the soft couch, grabbed the tea cup and took a sip of tea.
Wu Meiniang's pretty face was dyed red, her eyebrows stood up, she reached out and pinched Fang Jun's arm, and said angrily: "Who thinks about those things? You came over and drove away the maids yourself, and you blame me for thinking too much?"
He was blaming, but seeing Fang Jun's gloomy face, he turned to pour him tea and asked: "But what happened?"
Fang Jun looked solemn and explained in detail the assassination incident just now.
"Ah..." Wu Meiniang's face turned pale. She touched Fang Jun's body with both hands and looked up and down, and said in a panic: "How was it hurt?"
Fang Jun hurriedly held her slender hand and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, Wei Ying blocked the knife for me. He didn't hurt his muscles or bones, and I didn't hurt his fur. I just came here to ask you to help the staff. Do you think the mastermind behind the scenes is Whose one is more likely?”
He came here just to ask Wu Meiniang for advice. After all, this little lady is extremely talented in matters such as conspiracy...
Seeing that Fang Jun was indeed unhurt, Wu Meiniang felt relieved. She leaned next to Fang Jun and poured tea and water for him. She narrowed her eyes slightly and thought for a moment, then said: "There are many people who can do this, but there are many who have the motive to do this." Very few people do it.”
Fang Jun took a sip of tea and nodded in agreement.
Wu Meiniang continued: "Although Xue Wanche holds an army of guards and is even more valuable as a prince-in-law, he is actually far away from the center of power and has no hope of reaching that level in his lifetime. No matter who wants to cultivate a loyal and loyal It is not easy to be a dead soldier. Why should a dead soldier who has been trained so hard be placed next to Xue Wanche? ”
Fang Jun shook his head. He really couldn't think of a reason to do this, so he came to ask her for advice.
The corners of Wu Meiniang's lips twitched slightly. Her man was an unparalleled hero. He had already held great power at a young age, and was even praised by His Majesty Li Er as the "talent of Prime Minister and Assistant Secretary." But even so, whenever he encountered difficulties, he still had no grudges. Asking herself questions made her both proud and joyful.
This shows one's status in Lang Jun's mind...
She held Fang Jun's hand happily, with a pair of phoenix eyes shining brightly, and said softly: "There is only one reason, and that is that the mastermind behind the scenes has placed 'nails' around most people in the court, and Xue Wanche only It's just one of the inconspicuous ones It's just that the mastermind behind this incident wanted to assassinate Lang Jun, and Lang Jun was in the army, so he couldn't do it, so he had to use the dead soldiers around Xue Wanche... and there was only one person in the world who could do this. .”
Fang Jun was shocked. First he stared at Wu Meiniang in disbelief, but then the shock disappeared, leaving only deep worry.
Seeing him like this, Wu Meiniang was surprised and asked: "Lang Jun doesn't seem too surprised?"
When Fang Jun wanted to cross the ancient Shangyu Road and rush to Luoyang, he saw the old eunuch in the tent where the coffins were parked, like a poisonous snake dormant in the gutter. He shook his head, sighed softly, and said: "It's a bit unexpected, but Maybe there are already some clues, but I didn’t pay attention to it.”
He had only seen the imperial edict, but he guessed that there must be a secret edict, because judging from Li Ji's behavior, the edict did indeed exist, otherwise Li Ji's behavior would have been beyond the scope of a minister, except for obeying the edict. The behavior is really inexplicable.
Judging from the fact that Li Ji and Chen fought at Tongguan and sat on the mountain to watch the tigers fight, it seems that there was probably a purpose such as "depose the prince" in the imperial edict.
In the current situation, if you want to overthrow the East Palace and depose the prince, the most important thing is to defeat the Sixth Army of the East Palace and the Youtun Guards. Otherwise, these two armies, both internal and external, will keep the East Palace indestructible, not only under the fierce attack of the Guanlong rebels. After resisting, the situation has even been reversed, and there is an opportunity to turn defeat into victory.
The Youtun Guards were entrenched outside the Xuanwu Gate, with strong soldiers and horses, fighting vertically and horizontally. They beat the Guanlong army to pieces and fled, holding the Xuanwu Gate impregnably. Even when the war situation was the most unfavorable, they were able to assist the prince and the entire East Palace to withdraw from Guanzhong and retreat to Hexi. , regrouped and made a comeback.
If Fang Jun can be killed by a sniper, the Youtun Guards will collapse once and for all.
Wu Meiniang's eyes were burning, her pretty face was shining with confidence, and she said decisively: "Logically speaking, Zhang Shigui is the most important chess piece. The imperial edict must have ordered Zhang Shigui to cut off the Xuanwu Gate at the critical moment to prevent the East Palace from evacuating. Chang'an even led his army directly into the East Palace, Going straight to the back door of the East Palace... As a result, the prince was trapped in a dead end, unable to fly. But now the man behind the scenes brazenly assassinated Lang Jun, which showed that he had wavered on whether Zhang Shigui would carry out the imperial edict, so he had to take this strategy. !”(End of this chapter)
