The Shenwu army was opened, and Li Longji, the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, finally couldn't help but fall off his horse, if it weren't for the quick eyes of the eunuch who supported him, he would have fallen to the ground.

"Quick, escort, escort!"

The eunuchs had long been frightened, and if the Son of Heaven had an accident, none of them who served around him would survive. But Li Longji pushed away the eunuchs who were holding him with all his might, and rebuked in a deep voice: "What are you panicking about?

After a few words, the eunuchs who shook their hands and feet stopped shouting, Li Longji stabilized his mind on the spot, and then stepped back on the war horse. Today, since you have personally gone to the Forbidden Garden to march for the Shenwu Army, you must have a beginning and an end, and you must ride back on horseback. Otherwise, these anomalies will fall into the mouths and tongues of the ministers, and they don't know how to spread.

Li Longji has been the Son of Heaven for more than 40 years, and he knows these gossips best, although he is the Son of Heaven and can decide anyone's life and death, but he is helpless about this message. He has also gone through a process from tight control to patient channeling of these gossips. As he grew older, he realized that people's hearts are the most difficult to control, and rumors are often the invisible sword that breaks people's hearts.

To his dismay, he had never been able to truly grasp the invisible sword in his hands for a moment, so he had to keep his spirits up and deal with it carefully. Today, he came on horseback and personally beat the drums for the Shenwu Army, not only to show the world his trust in the army, but also to prove to the government and the opposition that he not only firmly controls the army as the son of the Tang Dynasty, but also has a strong body that can ride a horse and beat the drum.

Warn those powerful courtiers with bad intentions not to think about it, otherwise what awaits them will not be a good result.

Just after Li Longji ordered to drive back to the palace, a horse rode to the palace.

"Military newspaper, military newspaper!"

Hearing the word military report, Li Longji's body couldn't help but shake violently twice, and an ominous premonition suddenly appeared.

"Bring it on!"

The sweat-stained oilcloth was opened, and the parchment paper inside was gently unfolded. Li Longji looked at the slightly scribbled handwriting on it, and although he tried his best to restrain the change in his expression, his brows still couldn't help but lock up.

It is an urgent report from Tongguan. The vanguard of the An Lushan rebels had already reached Tongguan, and just last night, the two armies had just experienced a battle outside Tongguan, and both sides had losses.

Although Ge Shuhan wrote in the military newspaper that he would repel the rebels' offensive, Li Longji was not ignorant of military affairs, and he knew that with the arrival of the forward, the rebels' offensive would inevitably be like a wave, wave after wave.

At this time, Yang Guozhong and Yu Chaoen had already followed closely behind the Son of Heaven, and they were also nervously looking at the military newspaper in the hands of the Son of Heaven, while judging the expression of the Son of Heaven, whether it was good news or bad news in the military newspaper. However, from the gradually tightened brows of the Son of Heaven, and from the gradually solemn complexion of the Son of Heaven, both of them faintly felt that it would not be good news.

Just when the two of them were speculating, Li Longji suddenly raised the military report in his hand.

"Tongguan good news, Ge Shuhan defeated the thief rebels and beheaded tens of thousands!"

Then the eunuch raised his voice and repeated Li Longji's words over and over again, so that everyone present could hear them clearly.

"Long live the Tang Dynasty, long live the emperor!"

The announcement of this good news can be said to be at the right time, and the emotions of the hundreds of officials and soldiers in the forbidden garden who have just been mobilized have become even higher.

Li Longji glanced at everyone present with satisfaction, "Go back to the palace!"

……

Qin Jin left the Forbidden Garden, and the Shenwu army bypassed the northern city at an unhurried speed and marched eastward. Pei Jing and Lu Qi gathered around him, Lu Qi's face still had a cold expression, but Pei Jing was a little bored in excitement. His annoyance was all caused by Yang Xingben's sudden betrayal. At this time, the news that Yang Xingben had fallen to Yang Guozhong had spread in a small area in the Shenwu Army, and Pei Jing, as the number two person in the army after Qin Jin, naturally knew it before many people.

"Envoy, is there any misunderstanding about Yang Er?"

Lu Qi snorted coldly: "Misunderstanding? I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be a misunderstanding, look at this, it is the masterpiece of that guy." At the same time, he pointed his right hand at his face, and saw that it was bruised and purple, apparently beaten by someone.

Qin Jin and Lu Qi's secret discussion was only known to the two of them, and other than that, even Pei Jing didn't know about it. Qin Jin knew that to do this kind of work similar to a spy, secrecy was the top priority, but for the safety of Yang Xingben's actions, it was also necessary to keep this matter secret in an all-round way.

"Okay, it's pointless to argue about the past, it's better to study it well, and after Feng Yi, how should we deal with it!"

Pei Jing sighed lightly, and didn't think about Yang Xingben's defection, he had sent hundreds of rangers to Feng Yi before, and now people were returning one after another, and they also brought back first-hand news about Feng Yi.

"Huangfu Ke is determined to win Feng Yi, it is said that the troops have already arrived in the city, we had better rush to Feng Yi's city before he makes any moves. ”

Lu Qi said: "Huangfu Ke is not a reckless person, he should know that Feng Yicheng is high and deep, and it is not easy to take it, just under the swaggering Chen soldiers, isn't he afraid of being attacked by reinforcements inside and out?"

Lu Qi's questioning is not unreasonable, Qin Jin slowed down the horse's speed, after all, the war horse is an animal, and it can't do a long period of high-speed advancement, in order to ensure its continuous physical strength, it is necessary to reduce the horse's speed to a low enough to save horsepower to the greatest extent.

"Could it be that Huang Fu Ke's move was intentional?"

Pei Jing also deeply thought of Lu Qi's questioning, and felt that Huangfu Ke might be luring the enemy by doing this, and then inadvertently, he would attack him unprepared!

Qin Jin pondered for a while, and felt that although Lu Qi's doubts were reasonable, there was one of the biggest doubts in this that was puzzling. No matter what tricks there are, Huangfu Ke plans to annihilate the enemy and attack the city, if he wants to maintain his current strength, there is a big premise, that is, there are strong reinforcements behind him. Otherwise, with only the soldiers of Pujin, it will be difficult to set off much storm in Guanzhong.

In the previous judgment, the worst result of Huangfu's rebellion was to collude with the An Lushan rebels, using the Pujin danger springboard, and the rebels penetrated the hinterland of Guanzhong from here, threatening the back of the 200,000 troops in Tongguan, only in this way would it cause a great shock to the defense of Guanzhong.

"Think about it from another angle, Huangfu Ke took the initiative to attack Feng Yi, and the ** who came to help, is it considered a moth to fight the fire?"

"There is not much grain in Pujin, but there are a lot of materials in Feng Yi's city, and the emperor is in a hurry to jump over the wall, and it may be possible to attack Feng Yi!"

The three of them discussed for most of the hour, but they did not come up with a definite result.

"Wait for the specific news that the Ranger further discovers, no matter how much you say now, it is unfounded speculation!"

Pei Jing and Lu Qi disagreed with the Qin and Jin moths fighting the fire, believing that the main purpose of Huangfu Ke's siege of Feng Yicheng was to obtain supplies in the city to maintain the army. Because it is well known that the supply of food for the army under the command of each section is measured in months, if Huang Fu Ke does not get a large amount of grain and grass in a month, or if he wins a decisive victory, his rebellion can only end in failure.

Of course, Huang Fu Ke still has a choice, that is, to ask An Lushan's pseudo-Yan for help, if he can't turn things around within a month, he has only this way to go.

Therefore, what they were most worried about was not whether Huang Fu Ke would be able to capture Feng Yi, but whether Huang Fu Ke would surrender to the puppet Yan rebels in a desperate situation, once this happened, it would be the worst outcome for the Tang Dynasty.

The three of them were silent, and followed the brigade on the official road and turned north, Feng Yi was in the northeast of Chang'an, next to the Yellow River in the east, and Shuofang Hetao in the north.

"Envoy, envoy, there is news, Chang'an has news delivered to ......"

The voice of the voice is very sharp, and when you hear it, you are a eunuch. I saw Jingyou waving a parchment letter in his hand and urging the horse to catch up. As the superintendent of the Shenwu Army appointed by the Son of Heaven, he was also in the army.

Qin Jin's heart suddenly tightened, it had only been less than two hours, and the news from Chang'an would definitely not be good news.

Sure enough, Jing You urged the horse to come to the front of the three of them, and said in a little panic: "The Anshi rebels have already fought under Tongguan, and the old minister Geshu fought with them, but he failed to take advantage! The sage asked us to solve the rebellion of Huangfu Ke as soon as possible, the best, preferably within half a month!"

Lu Qi snorted coldly.

"Half a month, the prison army has a clever plan to pacify the thief in half a month, and Lu Qi obeys his fate!"

Jing You is not as strong as Bian Ling, Chengyu Chaoen and the others, and seeing that Lu Qi does not have a good face, a smile appeared on his face to ease the atmosphere.

"This, this is what the sage said, isn't there always a saying in the army, the general will not be subject to the orders of the monarch outside, combined with the actual situation, it is naturally best to quell the chaos in half a month, if not, deal with it step by step...... What does General Lu think?"

The words were leaky, and Lu Qi couldn't catch the loopholes and handles, so he couldn't be unreasonable, so he twisted his head away and didn't communicate with Jingyou.

To tell the truth, because of Bian Lingcheng and Cheng Yuanzhen, the people of the Shenwu Army have a very poor sense of eunuchs, and Jing You's identity is also a prison army, which is equivalent to the spies sent to the army by the Son of Heaven, staring at their every move, so how can they give Jing You a good face?

Pei Jing hurriedly played a round, "The prison army is reasonable, half a month can't pacify the thief, and then think about it in the long run." It's just that the Tongguan soldiers are in danger, and we're just afraid that we will have to fight alone!"

Several people were worried, if the rebels had not yet arrived in Tongguan, once Feng Yi's war changed, he could also ask for reinforcements from Tongguan, with the current situation, Ge Shuhan of Tongguan might not send troops.

"The Pujin Rebellion must be resolved before Huangfu Ke surrenders to the enemy!"

Qin Jin's voice was resolute, and he had already made a decision.
