Volume 3 Chaos in Chang'an Chapter 154 Guarding the Temple

After the armed squad and the thief army exchanged several rounds of crossbows, the two sides finally met in close combat.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Both sides roared at the same time, swinging their swords upward.

However, the scene that everyone expected to see in the armed squad directly resisting the thief army with one enemy and ten forces did not appear.

The real situation is that the individual combat effectiveness of the thief army is faintly equal to that of the armed squad! The two sides started a tug-of-war in front of the gate of Xinping Temple, and the thieves fought one-on-one with the armed squad, and in general, they did not fall behind.

"This ...... That's impossible! ”

Yuguan exclaimed. This is a straight armed class, this is the most powerful army in the world in the Great Qin Dynasty! Even if you already know that it is not an ordinary thief, it is not exaggerated to the point that the combat power of individual soldiers is on par with the armed squad, right?

Even Yuguan couldn't care about the king's inappropriateness and screamed, and the noble children behind him seemed even more panicked. The big guy was stable before, because he knew that the armed squad was one in a hundred, and he thought that two hundred armed squad was more than enough to resist more than a thousand thieves. However, the fact is that the combat effectiveness of the thief army is not inferior to that of the armed squad at all! Now the armed squad is relying on the favorable terrain and strictly guarding several temple gates. The thieves can't rush to the top, so the advantage is not obvious. But judging from the current combat effectiveness of both sides, the thieves can be completely consumed, and when the two hundred armed squads are exhausted, there will be no one to resist the thief army.

The sons and daughters of the nobles made eye contact with each other, and several of the traitorous courtiers even quietly took a few steps back, already looking for an opportunity to run away after preparing for the temple break. However, because Emperor Qin was in front of him, no one dared to say anything depressing.

Emperor Qin didn't seem to be afraid, and still said indifferently: "Have the people sent down the mountain to gather reinforcements ever sent out?" ”

Yuguan's mood stabilized slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Back to Your Majesty, they have all been dispatched." ”

Emperor Qin nodded slightly, and then suddenly said in a loud voice: "I have secretly sent scouts down the mountain to summon the surrounding garrisons, and at the latest in the morning, reinforcements will arrive. Soldiers, hold on, survive the day and night, I will be rewarded! ”

Emperor Qin's words floated into the ears of the armed squad who were fighting like a heart booster.

"Roar! Roar! “

"Hooray! Banzai! ”

The armed squad suddenly became more and more courageous. Emperor Qin was not comforting everyone, but telling the truth. In the Gyeonggi Sanfu area, the guards are so strict, and the large and small armies are divided into defenses, like chess and stars. Just near Wujiang Mountain, many garrisons were stationed. At daybreak, several reinforcements who were close enough to receive the news arrived.

However, Emperor Qin's voice was like this, not only the armed squad fighting below heard it, but even the thief army heard it. Suddenly, the thieves in the back row raised their hands and raised their crossbows, shouting: "Kill the emperor!" ”

Rows of crossbow arrows flew diagonally.

Fortunately, the eunuch wrestler had already raised the plank and easily took these crossbow arrows. This is also a difference between a crossbow and a bow, a crossbow is not as flexible as a bow and is only suitable for flat fire. It's not impossible to shoot diagonally, but the power of doing so will become even smaller. Because of this, the few unlucky ghosts who were accidentally shot by crossbow arrows on the wooden platform before were only injured, and they did not die.

"Your Majesty, please step down and supervise the war!"

Yuguan turned around and clenched his fists and asked for his life.

Emperor Qin took a deep look at Yuguan and nodded slightly.

So Yuguan turned away from the wooden platform and quickly joined the battlefield below.

I saw Yuguan blocking a temple door, waving his waist knife wide open and closed, and repelled many thieves for a while.

Pei Shengqin saw it in his eyes, and said: "Your Majesty, the two people who accompanied him with the minister are both brave and extraordinary, and they can step down to help in the war." ”

Shi Yue and Lei glanced at each other viciously, and both understood Pei Shengqin's plan, and at the same time came out to worship: "The last general is invited to fight!" ”

With the combat strength of the two generals of Lei Shi, each person sticks to a temple gate, and he will be able to hold on for a lot of time. At this time, the soldiers on both sides could not swarm up, and the role of the general's personal force became even greater.

Although Emperor Qin was not distracted at this time, he didn't have the heart to pay attention to Pei Shengqin's two entourage. When he said: "Since Xiao Pei Qing said that you two are brave, then go ahead." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The two generals of Lei Shi thanked each other, then bid farewell to Pei Shengqin, and also stepped down with weapons. As for Pei Shengqin himself, he naturally won't be on it. Let Shi Yue and Lei be vicious, because he knows how awesome the two are, and these thieves may not have to get a second general. And if Pei Shengqin goes down by himself, then ten out of ten can only go to give away someone's head. Although after half a year of training, Pei Shengqin's physique at this time is much better than when he just crossed, which is enough to be worthy of the elite in the army. But those thieves can fight a straight draw with the armed squad, far better than the ordinary elite of the army.

The second general Lei Shi joined the battle, and the situation was really much better. The two learned to view the fish, and each guarded a temple gate, so that the thief army could not enter. The dense thief army outside the temple gate has become a barrier for several people, so that the crossbowmen of the thief army in the rear do not dare to release arrows, after all, crossbow arrows cannot be thrown. On the other hand, the soldiers on the side of the armed squad led their bows and arrows behind the three generals, and round after round of bows and arrows were thrown out, passing over the heads of several generals, and then falling into the thief army.

Seeing that the three generals were brave, the situation was slightly stable, and everyone on the stage was also relieved. Emperor Qin sighed: "The two generals under Xiao Pei Qing are really brave, it is a blessing for Great Qin to have such a person!" ”

Pei Shengqin hurriedly expressed his loyalty: "General Shi is the general of the Tiance Army, and the Tiance Army is an army for the Son of Heaven to drive, seriously speaking, General Shi should be under His Majesty's command." ”

Emperor Qin was overjoyed when he heard this, but he was puzzled: "Only one of those two generals is the general of the Tiance Army, and the other person is the general of the Pei family?" ”

The Tiance Army is an official establishment of the imperial court, and the generals are the private subordinates of the Pei family, and the nature of the two is completely different. Thinking that such a heroic man was not an officer or soldier of the imperial court, Emperor Qin couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

What Pei Shengqin wanted was Emperor Qin's question, and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty has misunderstood, such a fierce general, how dare I, Pei, accept it privately?" That General Lei was a native of Longxi, subordinate to the officers and soldiers of Hezhou, and followed the king of Nan'an. This time out of Beijing, the king of Nan'an was worried about His Majesty's safety, so he entrusted Weichen to bring General Lei, just for the safety of His Majesty. ”

Although it is basically impossible for Emperor Qin to have the idea of passing on the throne, it is still necessary to fight for the impression points that should be fought for, and there is no harm in all.

"Wen Gao has a heart." Emperor Qin really praised it.

"Your Majesty, the minister also wants to ask for war!"

Yang Ding and Zhang Wei looked at the battle situation below, and they couldn't help but boil their blood and went out to fight.

However, the two people's request to fight was rejected by Emperor Qin. The sword has no eyes, even Emperor Qin is afraid that these noble children will make a mistake, and it will be difficult to explain it to their father and brother afterwards.

Yang Ding was a little disappointed, Pei Shengqin patted him on the shoulder, and persuaded: "Uncle brother, don't worry, if you want to kill the enemy, there will be opportunities in the future, and now we will protect your majesty well, it is the duty of a human servant." ”

Yang Ding's stay on the stage is the best result, after all, Shi Yue, Lei Evil, and Yuguan have all gone down, and the defense around Emperor Qin is much weaker. If Yang Ding stays on the stage, he can better prevent accidents.

The thief army obviously didn't expect that there were so many fierce generals accompanying Emperor Qin, and for a while, the formation was a little flustered, and the offensive was sluggish. The armed squad became more and more courageous, and the situation was gradually reversed.

Emperor Qin suddenly had a gloomy face and said, "You all tell me, how did these thieves come from?" ”

The "you" in Emperor Qin's mouth naturally refers to everyone on the wooden platform. Including the sons and daughters of the nobles, as well as a small number of accompanying officials, as well as Qinghe and the princes and princesses, as well as a number of eunuchs.

At this moment, no matter how stupid Rao is, he can see that these thieves are not ordinary. can mobilize such a powerful thief to raid Luanjia, and the people behind the scenes are naturally not idle. It is hard to imagine any other organization other than the official army system of the Great Qin Dynasty that could have cultivated such a well-trained and well-equipped army, and had unknowingly allowed this army to infiltrate the Gyeonggi strongholds.

And if this group of thieves is really a certain official army of the Great Qin Dynasty pretending, then the implication in this matter is too great, so big that even if they are a group of second-generation officials who are not afraid of heaven and earth, they are afraid of being involved.

So all the noble sons bowed their heads and did not dare to open their mouths.

Pei Shengqin knew which traitors in Beijing had evil intentions, but he couldn't think of any traitors who had the ability to plan this one. This time it wasn't three or two assassins who infiltrated the assassination, this time it was an elite force of thousands of people! There are quite a few traitors who can mobilize so many elites, such as Murong Chui, Yao Chang, and Qifu Guoren, all of whom have thousands of troops and horses in the local area. But it's one thing to be able to mobilize so many troops, and it's another thing to be able to arrange so many troops to sneak into the land of Gyeonggi with weapons without being noticed, Pei Shengqin doesn't think those traitors can do this!

What Pei Shengqin can think of, others can naturally think of. The sons and daughters of the nobles did not dare to speak, but the prince had no such concerns.

The sixth prince, Fu Xi, said in a cold voice: "Erchen thinks that these thieves are ...... Most of them are from within Gyeonggi. ”

Inside Gyeonggi, it naturally refers to the numerous garrisons of the Gyeonggi counties. The meaning of the Six Princes is that this group of thieves comes from the army stationed in the Gyeonggi counties.

The corners of Pei Shengqin's mouth twitched slightly, and he also learned from the other noble disciples, bowing his head and saying nothing. In this case, Zitong Pei himself is also suspicious, Pei Shengqin is reasonable, and he has to avoid suspicion. Because the Tiance Army is also one of the troops stationed in Gyeonggi, and it is also one of the nine armies that directly defend the Chang'an of the Beijing Division.

Hearing the words of the sixth prince, the others didn't dare to answer, and the words were all on the table, and the next thing was to cite the suspects. If you guess wrong, it's not much different from falsely accusing others of rebellion, who dares to answer easily?

In this case, only Xinping is too guarded.

It's not because he has an iron head, but because it happened in Xinping County, if he can't find the mastermind behind it, it is very likely that he will be blamed in the end, so he can't help but be inactive.

I saw Xinping Taishou gritting his teeth, and then said loudly: "Your Majesty, I heard that Mo Wei, the guard general of the Great Realm, has a close relationship with the King of the East China Sea. ”
