Chapter 12: Great Xia

Daxia Gate is the north gate of Luoyang City, looking forward to the north of the mountain, backed by Hualin Garden, and the west is followed by the dangerous terrain of Kim Yong Jiancheng.

At this moment, the towers of the city are densely packed with people. In the middle of the crowd, there is the dragon flag in the back, and the nine-fold canopy in front. Without asking, it can be known that under the canopy, the person with the golden helmet and golden armor should naturally be Fang Jinzi Yuanziyou.

Overlooking the city, the eyes are full of plain white, and it is thousands of Erzhu soldiers and horses.

The leader of this cadre is Erzhu Fulu and Erzhu Marquis, two of whom are generals under the command of Erzhu Shilong, who are led today, including 1,000 elite Hu cavalry and 3,000 Hu Han foot soldiers. At this moment, thousands of people crowded outside the Great Xia Gate, all of them wearing filial piety clothes, and the banner they played was also to ask for the corpse of Tianzhu Er Zhu Rong.

The city walls around Daxiamen are high, the terrain is narrow, and there is the protection of Kim Yong City, which is actually quite unfavorable for the besieging side. Erzhu Fulu and Erzhuhou are here today, but they are just shouting as usual, showing off their might, and they never thought of attacking and fighting hard from the bottom of their hearts.

There was a shouting and scolding, but the city did not hear it. Erzhu changed his trick again, beckoned his subordinates to cry and weep, beat his chest and feet, and shouted in unison: "We waited to enter the court with the pillar of heaven, and the pillar of heaven suddenly suffered a catastrophe, but what should I do?" Tianzhu was unjustly killed, how can we abandon Tianzhu's corpse and return empty-handed? If we have to get back the corpse of the Heavenly Pillar, we will have no regrets even if we die! ”

It's strange, after this burst of howling and crying, there was a sudden response in the city, and someone shouted: "The law of the country is ruthless, the king of Taiyuan is plotting chaos, and he has been punished for the Ming Dynasty." However, if you can wake up and surrender in time, you will not only be pardoned for innocence, but also promoted to the third level! ”

As he spoke, a long hemp rope hung down at the head of the city, tied a hanging basket, and a person came down. When Erzhu looked at it, he was a famous scholar and a talented man in this dynasty, who was originally a member of the Zhongshu She, and has now been promoted to Wen Zisheng of the Zhongshu Order.

"Wen Dashi is so daring!" Erzhu made a hideous appearance: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you with a knife and avenge the pillar of heaven?" ”

"When the country is in turmoil, it is the time to employ people." Wen Zisheng couldn't see Erzhu Fulu's fierce appearance, and said to himself: "The Son of Heaven is merciful, sincere and sincere, and he wants to be of great use, why don't you believe it?" ”

Erzhu Fulu sneered: "Tianzhu is loyal, swept away the thieves from all directions for the country, and died unjustly. How can I still trust him ... This Luoyang City? As he said that, he could clearly hear that his tone had softened.

Wen Zisheng smiled faintly, reached into his arms, groped twice, and took out some things. Nai handed it to Erzhu Fulu and said loudly: "I wonder if this thing can help the general feel at ease?" ”

"Danshu Iron Coupon?" Erzhu Fulu's eyes lit up, and his face was full of anger, and he unconsciously showed a smile.

"Isn't it just a Danshu iron coupon!" Wen Zisheng said with a smile: "Today, Your Majesty personally went to the city, and when I saw the sadness of You, I knew that the general and a group of soldiers were honest and even affectionate, and under the feelings, they sincerely wanted to turn the war into jade silk and conspire with the well-being of the Great Wei." ”

"Fruit... True? ”

Wen Zisheng said: "The Son of Heaven is close at hand, if you don't believe it, the general might as well ask directly." The court is wide and the public is leisurely, how can the Son of Heaven deceive people? ”

"That's not necessary." Erzhu Fulu stared at the Danshu iron coupon in his hand for a long time, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Sure enough, you can still be promoted to the third level?" ”

"You have no jokes!" Wen Zisheng said solemnly: "If the general surrenders today, it will be the first initiative, not to mention the third level, even if it is a marquis and a prince!" ”

Erzhu Fulu's face was already full of smiles, but he couldn't help but laugh out loud, and coughed lightly: "I waited for the order of Le Pinggong to come to ask for the corpse of Tianzhu, if so, I listened to the words of Master Wen... Le Pinggong is there, tsk, it is not easy to explain. ”

Le Pinggong was dizzy for a while and did something stupid, that was not a big deal. Don't you see, to this day, has the Son of Heaven ever stripped Le Pinggong of the slightest official position and knighthood? Wen Zisheng smiled brightly: "There are also Yingchuan Gong (Erzhu Zhao) of Jinyang, Chang'an Gong (Erzhu Tianguang) of Chang'an, Dunqiu Gong (Erzhu Zhongyuan) of Pengcheng, and Lexiangbo (Erzhu Dulu) of Shengle... Which one is not good? If you want me to say, if Le Pinggong sees the general surrendering to Luoyang, he will be touched, and most of them will follow the general's example. At that time, the Son of Heaven will not hesitate to be crowned king! ”

Erzhu was moved: "That is the case... I would like to ask you to wait a moment and allow me to consult with the brothers. ”

"That's nature."

Wen Zisheng went away, and Erzhuhou had already come over to fight, and roared urgently: "Third brother! Are you really going to descend? ”

"Isn't it possible?"

"Are you stupid? I don't say Wen Zisheng, just say that Yuan Ziyou, do you really dare to believe his words? ”

"I believe he's a ghost!" Erzhu Fulu laughed: "The son of heaven is merciful, he is just afraid, the so-called panic and hunger are just food, how can you deceive my Erzhu Fulu?" ”

"I'll just say, the third brother is not a fool." Erzhuhou's crusade turned from worry to joy: "Our army is in full swing, even if we can't take Luoyang for a while, we can always break the city for three or five months?" No matter how bad it is, when Jinyang Yingchuan Gong leads the main force to kill, how can Luoyang stop it? ”

"The seventh brother is right." Erzhu Fulu nodded and said: "Whether it is Leping Gong or Yingchuan Gong, no matter who it is, it is always my Erzhu clan who is the son of heaven." At that time, won't we wait for the same title of prince? How can it be rare to be the reward of the dead thief? ”

"That being the case, what does the third brother do is even with this surnamed Wen? I heard that this guy has slashed the pillar of heaven with a knife in his own hand in the Mingguang Palace. Didn't say it, wouldn't it be nice to give him a knife as soon as possible and send him to see Yama? ”

"Luoyang City has thick walls and is very well guarded, if it is attacked hard, I will not be able to touch the head of the city with these two people." Erzhu Fulu explained: "If you can't take it, why not outwit? ”

"Outwitted? What does the third brother mean? ”

"Pretending to surrender, and then asking the whole army to enter the city on the grounds that he was worried that Le Pinggong would be held responsible. As soon as I entered the city... ”

"Behind the Great Xia Gate is Hualin Garden, and there is no urn city, so there is no fraud." Erzhuhou's eyes lit up: "As soon as we enter the city, how can those soft eggs in the city be our opponents?" Isn't that pinched and rounded, it's all up to the two of me? ”

"This time, Yuan Ziyou was frightened, and he rushed to the doctor, and it was the creation of the two of us. If you have to take Luoyang in one fell swoop, Leping Gong can be called the emperor, and the two of us will be crowned kings! ”

Erzhuhou rubbed his hands again and again with joy in the crusade: "I want it!" Yes! ”

At that moment, the two first confessed to the lieutenant colonel, but they called Wen Zisheng, claiming that they were willing to surrender, and by the way, they said "worry" in their hearts again.

Wen Zisheng was overjoyed, and said, "Wrap it up on me", but hurriedly ran back to report the news, and soon shouted at the head of the city: "Two generals! Your Majesty has a decree, Zhun Er and the whole army will enter the city! However, the long soldiers and horses must be set aside, and they must not be carried together! ”

Erzhu Fulu and Erzhuhou glanced at each other, and each smiled: These Yulinlang and Gyeonggi troops in the city are just a bunch of wasters. In the previous field battle, our army could chase him with ten people, even if he did not have long soldiers and horses, he could still be beaten all over the ground with a portable sword.
