Chapter 447: The Son of Heaven Escapes from Chang'an

Qin Jin led his troops across Jingshui, and Xianyang City was in the distance. www.biquge.info The Xianyang City at this time was naturally not the scale of the capital of the Qin Dynasty, and its regulation was at most a county, and the city was separated by a Weishui River in the Tang Dynasty, Xijing Chang'an.

Dunma stopped to look, but saw that the gate of Xianyang City was closed, and there was a murderous atmosphere.

"Envoy, in the opinion of the last general, Xianyang should still be under the control of the imperial court. ”

Qin Jin sighed, what is the use of Xianyang being controlled in the hands of the imperial court, if Chang'an has been lost at this time, this small city on the north bank of Weishui will also fall into the hands of the Anshi rebels sooner or later.

It's just that he didn't want to say it in public, so he just looked at Qingxuzi who was happy next to him and said:

"Chang'an may not fall easily at this time, let's rush over now, it's still too late!"

Qing Xuzi had a lot of noise with Qin Jin along the way, and now he couldn't help but be very excited when he heard Qin Jin say that he was going to cross Weishui to Chang'an, but he dissuaded him from crossing Weishui at this time.

"Don't go now!"

"Why?"

"At this time, Chang'an is falling, the Son of Heaven is still in the palace, and the envoy is going at this time, so don't you have to be controlled by others? It is better to wait for Chang'an to fall and the Son of Heaven to escape, and then make a move calmly, even if the king of heaven and Laozi will obey the words of the envoy!"

Qin Jin only felt that he was angry and funny, since this bull-nosed old man showed his fox tail, every time he persuaded himself, he was extremely explicit, was he really not afraid of death?

However, even if Qin Jin thought that Qing Xuzi's suggestion was reasonable, he would not adopt it. Because in Chang'an City, in addition to the Son of Heaven, there are more important things.

It's just that according to the calculation of time, if he didn't disappoint himself by joining Li Longji, I am afraid that he would have sneaked out of Chang'an at this time.

I just lowered my head and muttered for a while, but I heard a report from afar.

"Report! A large number of people have been found on the north bank of Weishui, and they are heading in the direction of Fengyi County!"

Qin Jin's heart couldn't help but tighten, could it be that Chang'an City had already fallen at this time?

"Quickly go and ask the people about the situation, what is the situation in Chang'an!"

After receiving the order, Tanma left quickly, and after a while, he brought back a few middle-aged men who were quite richly dressed.

Qin Jin personally inquired, only to find that most of those who fled were from the rich and noble families of Chang'an, and many of them still had titles.

The few people who were "invited" learned that the bearded young general in front of them was actually Qin Jin, the Shenwu general who shook the inside and outside of the Beijing Division, and they were immediately in awe.

"It turned out to be the general, why did the general come at this time?"

When a sentence came out, several people cried. At that time, many people in Chang'an knew that Qin Jin was appointed as the general of Shenwu, and the children of these wealthy families still called him the general

Qin Jin was upset by crying, they were all men, and they cried at every turn, which was really unbearable. But it was not good to attack these people, so he had to persuade a few words patiently before asking:

"Why are you so sad?"

A few people got down to business, and one of them, a little older, whispered in a very mysterious tone:

As soon as I heard a rumor in the palace in the morning, the Son of Heaven had fled from Chang'an at night, and he would not be able to hold it for a long time. ’

The other chimed in:

"If General Qin could arrive in Chang'an one day earlier, the Son of Heaven might not have lost all his confidence and fled......"

These people didn't wait for Qin Jin to speak, so they talked about all kinds of gossip in Chang'an City.

Qin Jin secretly smiled bitterly, Li Longji really failed to disappoint himself, and sure enough, he secretly fled Chang'an one night without hiding from all the ministers. Since this is the case, he can no longer delay, and must immediately cross south to Weishui and go to Chang'an.

"Please forgive me for talking too much, it's too late for the general to arrive in Chang'an at this time, and our family escaped early because we got the inside information first. At this time, the news of the Son of Heaven's escape has long been spread throughout the capital and outside, and even if a pot of rotten porridge is a god descending to earth, it is difficult to have the power to return to heaven. ”

These children of wealthy families are obviously well-informed and not afraid of Qin Jin, who has a heavy army and power, not only so, but also constantly make suggestions to him.

"What Brother Chen said is extremely true, General Fang Wen used troops to restore the land in Hedong, and he was guarding Feng Yijun, why not defend the land and wait for the opportunity to try to recover?"

Qin Jin smiled bitterly in his heart, it seemed that the children of these wealthy families actually did not have any confidence in the imperial court. It is good to say that it is to hold the place and wait for the opportunity, but in the end, it is just to suggest that Qin and Jin secede for self-protection, and they can also enjoy the shade under the big tree.

"It's not a secret, all the brothers are aiming for the reputation of the general, so they went to Feng Yi to take refuge together, if the general guards Feng Yi, relying on the land of Hedong and Shuofang Hetao, it may not be able to support half of the Tang Dynasty!"

At this time, Qin Jin couldn't interject anymore, but he heard another humane:

"This is too much, Feng Yijun is one of the three auxiliaries, and it is too close to Chang'an, there is no danger to defend, I am afraid it will be difficult to hold. If you want to hold out for a long time, the top priority is to withdraw to Yansui and other places, and use the intricate terrain to resist the rebel dogs......"

To summarize the suggestions of these people, it is to let the Shenwu Army rely on the land of Shuofang Hetao to fight a protracted battle with the Hedong part of the chassis and the Anshi rebels. To be honest, with just a few gossip of advice, it can be seen that these rich and noble places that have fled are by no means mediocre.

As soon as he thought of this, Qin Jin couldn't help but feel excited. Of course, what moved him was not the suggestion of holding the territory and separating the evidence, but he really thought of another key point, that is, the hearts of the people, especially the hearts of the Chang'an clan.

There are countless children of the big families in Chang'an, and there are no problems among them, so Qin Jin felt that it was necessary to snatch out the children of these big families before the Anshi rebels entered Chang'an and place them in the safe area of Feng Yi or Hedong.

After mastering these elites of the Tang Dynasty, are you still worried about the success of big things?

On the other hand, Li Longji fled from Chang'an in embarrassment with the crown prince and a few cronies, and since then, the prestige of the Son of Heaven who has been in the world for more than 40 years has been lost, and he no longer has the ability to call the wind and rain.

Looking at the turbid Weishui in front of him, Qin Jin sighed with infinite emotion, although Li Longji did not abdicate, but his era was over after all from this moment.

Due to the great drought, the deepest part of the surging Weishui is no more than the waist of a person, Qin Jin gave an order, and the cavalry of the Tongluo Department under the command of Wuhu Huaizhong went into the water to cross the river.

Seeing this, the few rich and noble children who persuaded Qin Jin not to cross the river couldn't help but be dumbfounded, it seemed that their lips and tongues just now were in vain, at this time, just thousands of people wanted to cross the river to turn the tide, isn't it a fool's dream, hitting a stone with an egg?

Qin Jin turned his head to look at a few dumbfounded guys, and said with a smile:

"You go to Feng Yi, there are officials there to receive you. Qin's departure is not to hit a stone with an egg, there are actually more people who want to withdraw safely, if they stop on the shore of Weishui, how can it be tantamount to leaving them to the Anshi rebels?"

After hearing this, the people immediately looked complicated, and then they all stood together.

"General Gao Yi!"

Qin Jin didn't talk nonsense with him anymore, and urged the horse to enter Weishui with the team.

After crossing the Weishui, there were still dozens of miles away from Chang'an, and all the cavalry no longer limited their horsepower, and rushed to the southeast without a fat.

It's just that in the south of Weishui, along the way is another scene, the ragged people on both sides of the road abound, if in the last year, said that this place is the first good place of the Tang Dynasty Chang'an, killed Qin Jin He also refused to believe it.

At the beginning, the people saw the loess all over the sky, the cavalry galloped, and they all rushed to flee for their lives in terror, and they all shouted:

"The dog is coming, the dog is coming......"

But some people fled for a while, and finally found that this galloping people and horses were not the Anshi rebels, and well-informed people recognized the forbidden army armor on these cavalry, and the words "Shenwu" and "Qin" on the banner indicated the identity of the cavalry.

After all, some of the people who fled were literate, and when they recognized the words on the banner, they shouted with joy:

"It's not a dog, it's a Shenwu Army!"

The name of the Shenwu Army is almost unknown to everyone near Chang'an, no one knows, I heard that it is the Shenwu Army, the people changed their attitude of fleeing, and they gathered on the official road, and gathered more and more, and blocked the front of the Shenwu Army.

Seeing that the army was blocked, Qin Jin couldn't help but feel anxious, so he personally came forward to persuade the people who blocked the way.

"Fathers and elders, Qin is rushing to King Qin, and I hope to make a way, don't delay the military plane!"

Of course, this is Qin Jin's excuse to persuade the people, but it's okay if King Qin's words are not spoken, but as soon as he said it, he had the audacity to spit and scold.

"The Son of Heaven has already fled with the concubine, and Chang'an City has already burned and robbed its own people, and is still a bird king?"

Qin Jin was secretly surprised by the new situation of the people in Chang'an City burning and looting each other, he originally thought that even if the Son of Heaven ran away, there would be officials who stayed behind to preside over the overall situation, but based on the current situation, he was afraid that no one in the city would stand up......

Thinking that the Tang Dynasty raised so many Beijing officials, but in the end, there was not even a person who dared to take responsibility, which is really sad to the extreme!

Unexpectedly, Qing Xuzi didn't know when he came to Qin Jin's side, leaned over from his horse and whispered:

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime good time, the dragons in the city are leaderless, so that the prestige of the king, if you raise your arms, someone will respond!"

Qin Jin nodded secretly, and Qing Xuzi finally said a more pertinent suggestion, but he had to arrive in Chang'an at least one day before the Anshi rebels, otherwise it was also likely to be self-defeating, and he would become a cattle and sheep to be slaughtered.

While thinking about it, I heard someone shouting hard:

"Don't stop the old man, the old man is the prime minister of the dynasty, and the old man wants to see Qin Jin......"

At this time, a relative came with the urging horse.

"There is an old man who claims to be the prime minister, and he wants to meet the envoy in person, has he dispersed the matter?"

Qin Jin was in a hurry to go to Chang'an, and just wanted to agree, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't help but move in his heart again.

"Wait, bring that old man to me!"
