Chapter 250 I will return with thousands of horses and troops (61)
Jiang Huan remained silent and threw the document in his hand into the brazier in front of him.
"We don't need reinforcements, we still have to defend the mausoleum."
The lieutenant was shocked.
"General, Lingyang Pass does not agree to send troops to support?"
Jiang Huan sneered.
"Send troops? Oh, they still want us to withdraw our troops!"
"Retreat?! How can that be done? We will be able to repel the Qi army soon. If this battle is won, the general will be promoted to General of the Right, second only to the Hussars General. How can we retreat now!"
Jiang Huan watched the documents in the brazier slowly turn into ashes and clapped his hands.
"It's just that some thoughtful people are worried that I will be promoted too quickly. The general will be outside, and I can go against your orders. I will continue to defend the mausoleum. I want them to see who is the real general."
Lingcheng reinforcements did not arrive for a long time, and Lingyang Pass suffered heavy casualties.
Jiang Tang asked Zhao Bang to return to the capital to recuperate, but Zhao Bang refused to obey and gritted his teeth and stayed in the military camp.
On this day, one gate of Lingyang Pass was lost again, and two of the four gates were attacked. The military camp was gloomy for a moment.
At night, candlelight flickers.
Jiang Qian pinched the envelope in his hand and frowned fiercely.
"What should we do now? Jiang Huan disobeyed orders!"
Jiang Tang also held a letter in his hand, slowly raised his eyes and said in a deep voice.
"We can only wait for the imperial city to undergo major changes."
As long as Changsun Yuchao ascends the throne, Emperor Liang will have to hand over half of the tiger talisman he holds in his hand.
Now that Emperor Liang is in dire straits, even if Lingyang Pass is about to be lost, he will not send troops to assist.
Because Jiang Tang was from the Changsun Yu Dynasty, Jiang Tang won this battle and the situation stabilized. After Jiang Tang returned to the palace, with military power to help him, the Changsun Yu Dynasty was more powerful, so he had no choice but to give up the throne obediently.
Even if you give up half of the country to Qi, it is still better than giving up the throne to Changsun Yuchao.
So what Jiang Tang can do now is to wait for Chang Sun Yuchao to move faster.
——"In that case, I will go to Lingcheng myself and bring back the reinforcements."
"It's useless, Jiang Huan, no one will listen."
"Since you know that Jiang Huan has an extreme personality, why do you promote him step by step and let him take charge of his own role?"
If outsiders can't see it, how can Jiang Gan not see it?
Jiang Tang has been helping Jiang Huan overtly and secretly. Otherwise, with Jiang Huan's extreme and aggressive character, it would be impossible for him to reach his current position.
"If something happens to me, he will always take the responsibility."
Jiang Tang knew that he wouldn't be able to stay in this world for long. No matter what, Jiang Huan would be the future of the Jiang family.
Simply for Mr. Jiang, Jiang Qian and Jiang Tang could only cultivate Jiang Huan.
Although they are only temporary family members, this can be regarded as forming a good relationship.
Just after reading the letter, Jiang Tang wrote a reply.
Ah Chao, my dear.
——
Emperor Liang suddenly fell ill, and all matters in the court, large and small, were now left to the prince, the eldest son, Yuchao.
Now in Daliang, Changsun Heng is nominally the emperor, but in fact, the person who is really in power has long been Changsun Yuchao.
The old emperor was already sick and only skin and bones were left, but he still gritted his teeth and refused to reveal the whereabouts of the other half of the Tiger Talisman.
Changsun Yuchao stood in front of the bed and looked coldly at Emperor Liang on the dragon bed. Apart from the power of the yellow robe, he was just an ordinary person with a mortal body. Even when he was dying, he was still talking about the imperial doctor.
It's a pity that no royal doctor will come to see him.
Changsun Yuchao slowly stepped forward, took out a jade pendant from his arms, and placed it in front of the old emperor.
"Do you still recognize this jade pendant?"
Emperor Liang's old eyes were filled with confusion. The moment he saw the jade pendant, a flash of eagerness suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"My son...my son..."
