Chapter 4129 is on the verge of breaking out
The Yu family in Luoyang also originated from Daibei and came from the same lineage as the Guanlong clan. However, they did not move to Guanzhong but moved to Luoyang to spread their branches. However, the two parties are still closely connected, and their interests are intertwined and inseparable. . At present, the Guanlong clan is vacillating under the leadership of Yu Wenshi and Li Chengqian. Although Li Chengqian hates it very much, he cannot be emotional. He can only hope that Yu Zhining can turn around. Maybe there will be a chance to relax in the critical moment and not completely overthrow. ……
But what worries him is that Fang Jun obviously has no idea in this regard.
Even quite suspicious of the two masters...
Fang Jun shook his head and patiently persuaded: "Not to mention that these two people have failed in many achievements and failed in many cases. The idea of just coercing Princess Jin and Prince Jin's son can be casually thought of? Prince Jin is determined to win the throne, even if he will The prince of Jin Dynasty was tied outside the palace gate and beheaded at any time. King Jin didn't even blink his eyes. He was still young. It's very light, and I can have many sons in the future, but there is only one chance to fight for the throne, so why are you willing to give up? Therefore, those who come up with such ideas cannot be based on ignorance and stupidity. Your Highnesses, you two are harboring evil intentions. The master no longer agrees with you.”
Li Chengqian was silent.
Of course, he could see that the mentality of the two masters and many Eastern Palace civil servants had changed. They were no longer as united and loyal as they were when the Guanlong clan was aggressive. However, these people had followed him for many years, even if their father repeatedly Even when I wanted to do something about it, I never left him, but suddenly there were many barriers, which was a bit hard to accept.
After all, I am still a failure as a prince...
Fang Jun said: "The most important thing at the moment is that Your Highness please immediately order Wei Guogong to lead the Sixth Army of the East Palace into the city, and at the same time order Lu Guogong to block Chunming Gate and not allow even one soldier of the Youhou Guards to enter the city."
It seems like two things, but in fact, there is only one most important purpose, which is to find out Cheng Yaojin's position as soon as possible. Although not long ago, this demon king had sworn his wholehearted loyalty in front of the prince, but once the king of Jin raised his army, the situation deteriorated instantly. No one can guarantee which side Cheng Yaojin will favor.
In fact, if Cheng Yaojin can achieve absolute neutrality, Fang Jun will feel more at ease. He is most afraid that Cheng Yaojin will turn against him, which will be troublesome.
Zuowuwei is one of the most powerful troops among the Sixteenth Guards, and they guard the key passes in Chang'an. Once they attack, they will soon be able to surround Taiji Palace on three sides. How can the imperial guards in the palace survive such a powerful attack? Stick to it?
It was only a matter of time before the city was reached, and it was not even possible for Li Jing to lead his army to come for reinforcements, so he had to withdraw from Chang'an from Xuanwu Gate and live in exile in the world.
And now Li Daozong, the guard of Xuanwu Gate, may not follow the prince wholeheartedly...
In the final analysis, the battle to seize the rightful son is different from the invasion of foreign enemies. The latter can still be united and fight to the death, but the former is difficult to define the position. Anyone can change their camp, just like the "Xuanwu Gate Change" back then. I don't know how many forces that originally supported Li Jiancheng changed their tune at the last moment, abandoning Li Jiancheng and joining His Majesty Li Er.
After all, this throne belongs to your old Li family. As for whether the eldest son or the second son will be the prince or the new emperor, it is actually not that important...
Li Chengqian followed his advice: "Gu Ma sent people to deliver the order. At the same time, he ordered the sixteen garrisons from various places in Guanzhong to rush to Chang'an and guard the capital in order to test the position of each department."
"Absolutely not!"
Fang Jun was startled and quickly stopped him: "Your Highness, we can't expect the sixteen troops to rush to King Qin of Chang'an at this time. As long as they can remain neutral, it can't be any better. Otherwise, even if they defect to King Jin's side, you can't help them all." To punish them and behead them? ”
The army is an important weapon of the country, how can it be tampered with?
Moreover, people's hearts are fluctuating at this moment, and many people are wavering and waiting to see the situation. Now ordering the Sixteenth Guards Army from all over the country to rush to Chang'an is equivalent to forcing them to make a choice, because as long as they do not obey the order, it is equivalent to surrendering to the King of Jin...< br>
The question is, even if we understand the position of the Sixteenth General, what will happen?
Regardless of the current situation, even if the East Palace finally wins the battle to seize the direct descendants, can they still arrest and behead all the generals who have taken refuge with King Jin?
Would you like to kill one of the meritorious ministers like Xue Wanche?
The world must be in chaos...
Li Chengqian woke up and nodded repeatedly: "What Erlang said is reasonable, Gu almost made a mistake."
Fang Jun was much calmer: "The situation is urgent, and a momentary oversight is inevitable. Your Highness should summon Ma Zhou, Cui Dunli and others to the palace to counsel the military aircraft."
Others cannot be trusted. In fact, the number of people who truly belong to the East Palace team is pitiful...
Li Chengqian said: "Good!"
He immediately signed a Jun order and ordered the imperial guards of the East Palace to convey it to all parties.
*****
Outside the Jinguang Gate, Li Jing was sitting on pins and needles in the central military tent. Looking at the black city wall in front of him, he felt worried. He kept sending out horse scouts from the north of the city around Longshouyuan to inquire about the movements of the right Houwei in the east of the city.
But Chang'an City is too huge. The east-west wall is more than 20 miles wide, and the outer city and the residential buildings attached to the city are nearly 40 miles wide. Scouts traveling to and from Jinguang Gate in the west of the city and Chunming Gate in the east have to bypass a small half of the northern part. The city is nearly 60 to 70 miles away, and the rain will not stop tonight, making the roads muddy and difficult to navigate. There are serious delays in the exchange of news, making it impossible to reach them in time.
If the Right Houwei from the Chunming Gate enters the city, by the time they receive the news, they will have arrived at the Tai Chi Palace and start a fierce attack...
But without the order of Prince Jun, how could he lead his army into the capital without permission?
"Commander, the right guard is gathering. All weapons and weapons have been distributed. The soldiers have their armors on and crossbows on their beds, ready to go. However, according to internal reports, there is no sign of the Duke of E either inside or outside the camp..."< br>
This was the information that the scouts had just brought back, which made Li Jing a little puzzled.
Yuchi Gong was summoned to the palace by the crown prince, but there has been no news of leaving the palace. Currently, the highest officer of the entire Youhou Guards is General Su Jia of the Youhou Guards. Although this man is a descendant of Yuchi Gong's wife clan, he is also the second-in-command of the Youhou Guards. , but the gap in prestige compared to Yu Chigong is more than a thousand miles? He definitely does not have the ability or courage to assemble an army outside Chang'an City. This is outside the capital city, and he absolutely cannot afford the responsibility of using weapons without permission.
Something must have happened in the palace, otherwise the reaction of the right marquis guard would not be so strong, but he has never received any news... There is only one explanation. The soldiers who conveyed the order to him were blocked by the soldiers guarding the city.
Now Zuo Wuwei has taken over the defense of Chang'an, and the city guard at Jinguang Gate has become Cheng Chumo. This shows that Cheng Yaojin's position may also have problems...
The situation is becoming increasingly urgent.
There was no time to wait any longer. Even if Prince Jun's order had been issued, who knew whether it would reach him?
He stood up from the tent, covered with armor and leaves, casually took the dagger handed to him by his own soldiers and put it on, tied the horizontal knife around his waist, strode out of the tent, and said loudly: "Send the order to the entire army to break camp immediately and enter the city with me! ”
"Here!"
The soldiers outside the account received the order, all agreed, and then rushed to the various armies to convey the message to the generals. Under the rule of Li Jing, the Sixth Army of the East Palace had a prosperous military and strict military discipline. No one asked why they dared to enter the capital without permission. They only knew that the order was like a mountain and no delay was allowed. More than 30,000 people in the army came out in full force and quickly reorganized their formations. The flags were flying in the wind and rain. It rolled and flew, slowly pressing towards the golden door.
The sound of gongs rang loudly on the city wall, and the soldiers on Zhiye were so frightened that they almost broke the gongs around their waists and rushed to tell each other. The news soon reached the ears of Cheng Chumo who was resting in the city gate tower.
Cheng Chumo was taken aback. Fortunately, he didn't take off his armor. He put on his boots and walked out quickly. When he reached the door, he grabbed a bamboo hat and took three steps at a time to the arrow stack and looked down at the city. He saw the six flags of the East Palace fluttering. , swords and guns are like forests, iron armor is like walls, and the black mass is like mountains, and the momentum is majestic.
Cheng Chumo took a breath of cold air and lost his voice: "Is Li Jing crazy?"
His Majesty has passed away, and it is an indisputable fact that the Crown Prince and the King of Jin are competing for the throne. The current situation is extremely critical. If you are not careful, a war will break out throughout Guanzhong. Li Jing's move is equivalent to instantly breaking the balance and provoking a war. Even if He is really the reincarnation of the "God of War", how dare he bear such responsibility?
Those who are good at starting a war will not escape accountability even if they win in the end...
The opponent advanced slowly, like a moving city wall in the windy and rainy night, giving people a strong sense of oppression. When they reached about 100 feet, a horse broke away from the group and galloped forward. In a few breaths, he came to the moat, and exhaled across the moat: "Gong Wei has an order to open the city gates quickly. There are traitors in the city who are rebelling. We enter the city to serve the king!"
This man's voice was loud and powerful. Even in the wind and rain, his voice could be heard far away. Cheng Chumo on the top of the city heard it clearly and naturally recognized the voice of his brother Cheng Chubi...
< br>
Mother!
Li Jing, this old guy, is a bad guy. He actually sent my younger brother to shout in front of the two armies. If someone on my side lost his bow and was hit by an arrow, wouldn't it be unfair?
Cheng Chumo was angry and asked the soldiers around him to shout back: "Is there an order from Prince Jun?"
Now that His Majesty has passed away, the Crown Prince has become the nominal supreme leader of the empire. Such a large-scale army entering the city would have been impossible without the Crown Prince Jun's order.
Under the city, Cheng Chubi shouted: "The thieves are causing trouble and the principles are often reversed. You are stubborn and unyielding. Do you have to sit back and watch the traitors succeed? Open the door quickly, otherwise you will be punished as a rebel against the thieves!"
Cheng Chumo almost laughed angrily on the top of the city. His younger brother usually couldn't even fart with three carrying poles, but these words today were more than what he said all day long...
"Stop blabbering, no one is allowed to enter the city without the order of Prince Jun! If you want to enter the city, just step over my body, your brother!"
There was no movement below the city. Cheng Chubi turned around and galloped back to the town. Soon after, horns sounded across the field, and then drums sounded. The orderly array of the Sixth Army of the East Palace slowly moved forward amidst the sound of drums. The array began to change during the march. , groups of soldiers carrying ladders rushed in front, and tall carriages could be vaguely seen in the darkness behind, being slowly pushed...
Cheng Chumo and the soldiers defending the city behind him were dumbfounded. The other party was actually planning to attack the city?
What happened in the city?
But there was no room for him to think too much at the moment. His duty was to guard the Golden Light Sect. How could he shrink back timidly under the power of the Sixth Order of the East Palace?
Even if the opponent's number is dozens of times his, they can't make the Golden Gate fall!
He ordered with a livid face: "Go ahead and guard the Golden Light Gate. Anyone who dares to fear the enemy and fight will be killed without mercy!"
"Here!"
The defenders on the city moved out the rolling logs and stones used to defend the city and placed them at the top of the city. The huge crossbows were strung up and arrows with thick arms were placed on them. Strong bows were also bent and nocked from the arrow stacks. Get ready to shoot outward.
The war is about to break out. (End of chapter)
