Chapter 4948 Young Mu Ai
Cen Changqian did not see any panic and said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, please explain the situation in detail."
"Here."
The chamberlain stabilized his mind and whispered: "Just now we went to the palace gate to make arrangements as planned to mobilize the guards on duty so that you can evacuate later, but suddenly we found that almost all the guards in the palace were on duty. The palace gates are tightly guarded, and it is difficult to get out of the palace quietly. ”
The others stopped talking and looked over.
"Is it possible that our whereabouts have been noticed?"
"If we can't get out, then should we continue to hide here? But the commander-in-chief has issued a military order, we must withdraw tonight!"
Cen Changqian's eyes were clear and she said slowly: "The purpose of strengthening the guard's duty is not necessarily to prevent us from going out, but to ensure that no one can come in!"
They are all outstanding students in the college, with online IQs and quick thinking. Someone immediately reacted: "Are they going to take action?"
"It must be so!"
Cen Changqian stood up suddenly and said in a deep voice: "Don't be impatient for a moment! Remove the banquet immediately, everyone is in your place, and be ready to fight at any time!"
He looked around, faced a pair of eager and excited eyes, and said word by word: "Although this mission is an unparalleled experience for us, we must not forget that everything is based on ensuring the safety of the prince! If Because of our negligence and cowardice, the prince's accident happened. Not only will your future be ruined, but the family will also be affected!"
"Don't worry, Sir, we are naturally not afraid of life and death!"
"It is truly an honor for us to die in the battle to protect His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"We have prepared so many firearms and are in a good location. Even if a brigade of cavalry comes, we will cripple them!"
More than ten people cheered and all stood up, with high fighting spirit.
Nowadays, the power of firearms is restricted by various weather, logistics and other conditions, and the combat power is really limited. But now that we are guarding Li Zhengdian, there is no rain, and the ammunition prepared in advance is sufficient, we can fully display the power of firearms. Therefore, Everyone is full of confidence, just waiting for the traitor to attack, and make an immortal contribution to protect the prince.
Cen Changqian was also confident that as long as the field troops did not form an organized charge, their "Magic Battalion" of more than a hundred people would be enough to make Li Zhengdian as impregnable and stable as a rock.
"Go and prepare immediately. I will see the queen and send the news out of the East Palace."
"Here!"
Everyone agreed in a loud voice, then quickly walked out of the side hall and gathered their companions in the other halls. More than a hundred people took their positions according to the tactics set in advance, distributed guns and ammunition, and prepared for battle.
Cen Changqian came to the main hall under the guidance of the chamberlain and met with the queen and the prince.
……
"Will the thief take action soon?"
Although she had already expected it, the queen was still shocked and slightly panicked when she heard what Cen Changqian said.
After experiencing two mutinies in a row, the fear of being on the verge of failure and hanging by a thread has not yet been eradicated from the bottom of my heart. Both times, defeat was turned into victory at the last moment. Will there be good luck this time?
Cen Changqian was very calm and said in a deep voice: "Wei Chen just has suspicions, but we must be prepared for the worst. Please ask the Queen, the Crown Prince, and His Royal Highnesses Changle and Jinyang to escape to the back hall. Wei Chen will lead Pao Ze Build a position here to resist possible attacks by thieves and ensure the safety of this place.”
The queen and the prince must be invited to the back hall, and if a war breaks out, someone will be sent to supervise them, not only to protect their safety, but also to prevent these nobles from giving orders in a panic when the situation is unfavorable.
Prince Li Xiang had already fallen asleep when he was pulled out of bed. At this moment, he was confused and his eyes were confused, and he did not yet understand the danger he was about to face.
The queen hugged the prince and looked hesitant: "This... once the thieves are launched, they will definitely be violent. What if the Li Zheng Palace cannot be defended? Otherwise, Aiqing will escort the prince to Taiji Palace now?"
In the two previous mutinies, the rebels rushed into the Taiji Palace like a tide. The earth-shattering offensive still makes the queen frightened to this day. Therefore, now that things are coming, she is a little worried about whether the "Magic Battalion" led by Cen Changqian can defeat the rebels. Army, guard Li Zhengdian.
After all, these students are young and don't look like they have been on the battlefield. Their skin is tender and their flesh is fragile. How can they be compared to the veterans of the Forbidden Army?
And there are only a few hundred people...
Cen Changqian frowned. The problem he was most worried about was the lack of unified command, which happened before the war started.
How to convince the queen to stabilize her position and stick to Li Zhengdian?
He organizes language and considers words in his mind...
Princess Jinyang on the side said crisply: "Why are you so confused, sister-in-law? Your Majesty has already explained before that all you need to do is to take the prince to the Li Zheng Palace. No matter how the thieves make trouble outside, he will cut off the traitors and quell the rebellion." .”
The queen still hesitated: "But there are too few of us, and we are all young students. What if..."
Princess Jinyang interrupted her, raised her head slightly, and asked: "Does my sister-in-law think that her military strategy is better than that of her brother-in-law?"
The queen was startled: "Although the Taiwei is young, he is a famous general in hundreds of battles. He has made great achievements and is invincible. How can I, a woman, compare to him?"
"That's it!"
Princess Jinyang's eyes were clear and her demeanor was calm: "Since my brother-in-law thinks that such a force can protect the prince's safety, he must be sure of it. But if he goes out to protect the prince now, he will definitely alert the thief. If the thief is really ready to cause chaos, how can he Shouldn't we force them to take action in advance? Then the prince will be exposed and have no cover, which will ruin the matter."
Queen: "..."
Are you so confident in Fang Jun?
Princess Changle on the side was also holding her child, staring at Jinyang with piercing eyes, sighing in her heart. Not only was this girl deeply in love, but she was also almost obsessed with Fang Jun. It’s already out of control.
Princess Jinyang saw that the queen was silent, but her expression was still hesitant, so she looked at Cen Changqian and asked in a clear voice: "Cen Changqian, if there is an enemy invasion, can we defeat it?"
Cen Changqian straightened her chest and looked solemn: "As His Highness just said, the commander-in-chief is invincible and has every plan. Since we are arranged to stay here to protect the prince, it must be because we will definitely be able to complete the task. As long as we are properly prepared, then There are no constraints, even if the incoming enemy is ten or a hundred times more powerful than us, we should still defend Li Zhengdian without risk."
If he faced a surprise attack by thousands of cavalry in a field battle, he would naturally not dare to say this, but would protect the prince and escape early.
But now that we are sticking to the location of Li Zhengdian, we are well prepared, have sufficient ammunition, and even first-aid medicines. The narrow area in the palace is most conducive to the power of firearms. Before the ammunition is used up, the weapon can be fired dozens of times. The enemy can't even think of capturing Li Zhengdian!
Will the thieves have that many troops?
Naturally, it is absolutely impossible. This time is completely different from the two previous mutinies. Xuanwu Gate, East Palace, and even the city of Chang'an are all under the control of His Majesty's direct troops, and the entire city is impregnable.
Even if there is a rebellion, it will only be to instigate some of the palace guards, or some domestic soldiers, slaves, etc. to cooperate with the attack on Tai Chi Palace from outside. The number will never exceed two or three thousand. As long as they are prepared in advance, they will not be able to launch a sudden attack. If the next blow is successful, the rebellion will be defeated.
Princess Jinyang nodded, turned to the queen, and said: "In that case, let's go to the back hall and leave this room to Cen Changshi with full command. Although Cen Changshi is young, he is highly valued by his brother-in-law and has been under the supervision of Jiangling since he was a child. The county son’s teachings are from a famous family and have extraordinary talents. He will definitely be able to remain calm in times of crisis and command with determination.”
Cen Wenwen sighed in his heart, it was indeed extraordinary that His Highness could express absolute support at this time, whether he was in love with the family or Wu, or was determined.
He immediately said: "The queen, the prince, and your two highnesses, please move to the back hall!"
The queen was helpless and did not dare to go out and take the risk of the rebels launching early and being trapped in a tight siege. She sighed and said, "I'll leave everything to Cen Changshi."
Cen Changqian knelt down on one knee and said in a sonorous voice: "It is your duty to do so even if you die!"
The queen got up and took the prince to the apse.
Princess Changle held Lu'er in her arms, walked two steps forward to Cen Wenwen, and said softly: "No matter what, you must pay attention to your own safety. Your commander-in-chief has high hopes for you, so don't lose it here."
Cen Wenwen felt hot in his heart. He raised his eyes and glanced at Princess Changle and the baby in her arms. He said solemnly: "Your Highness, don't worry. Even if I am shattered to pieces, I will still protect the palace and the young man!"
This is the commander's flesh and blood, and it is worthy of their risk and life to protect him.
Princess Changle nodded slightly and said no more.
Princess Jinyang also came over, blinked at Cen Wenwen, and whispered: "All the constraints are gone. It just depends on how General Cen deploys his troops and generals to boost his power!"
Naturally, he was referring to the words he had just used to block the Queen and remove the constraints on Cen Wenwen.
Cen Wenwen's heart was filled with emotion at the words "Little General Cen". The young man was full of energy and spirit, and he just felt that he had to protect this unparalleled young girl in front of him even if he risked his life.
Even if it's just for this trust, this smile, this confidant, I won't hesitate.
Which young man can't have a white moonlight in his heart...
Facing those beautiful eyes, Cen Wenwen looked earnestly and said with emotion: "Even if I lie down on the spot with blood splattered five steps away, I will never allow a thief to harm a hair of His Highness! If you violate this oath, I wish the thunder will come upon me!"< br>
Princess Jinyang was slightly startled, and her heart skipped a beat.
Young girls have always been precocious, how could they not know the unconcealable admiration in Cen Wenwen's eyes?
It's just that she already has her heart set on something and can't give back.
Then he lowered his eyes, nodded slightly, and said softly: "General Cen, take this very seriously."
Cen Wenwen also lowered his head and said: "Best farewell to Your Highness!"
Wearing jingle bells around her ears, the fragrance lingering, she raised her head and glanced at the infinitely beautiful back, straightened up, and strode out of the main hall. When she arrived outside the hall, more than a hundred robes had already gathered here, standing quietly in the heavy snow, waiting for orders. .
Cen Wenwen waved his hand: "Enter the palace and set up defenses!"
"Here!" More than a hundred people agreed in unison, transporting various firearms, ammunition, and equipment into the hall, and became busy instantly.
