Chapter 0229: The Rebels Break into the Palace

In the troops of the Great Liang Dynasty, the position of the Governor Liang Officer was somewhat special.

Not only is he responsible for planning food, but also stabilizing the morale of the army, the escaped governor Liang is also Meng Zong's brother, he knows that the food can no longer be delivered, but he did not spread the news.

He said to Zhang Zhikui, we have enough food, you can rest assured to fight.

Zhang Zhikui believed it.

Of course, the Liang official surnamed Meng did not deliberately harm Zhang Zhikui, he just wanted to wait a little longer, but he didn't wait for food, but waited for Wang Cao. He listened to the envoy sent by the enemy, and quickly made a judgment that eighty percent had something to do with food, so he took a dozen cronies and fled by the way, running faster than a rabbit, and the sentries didn't react and asked, where is General Meng going, do you need help?

At this time, he didn't dare to see Meng Zong, so he could only go all the way to the north and run somewhere first.

This Rao's name is Meng Xian, only in his early twenties, because the Meng family has a large population, although Meng Xian is the same generation as Meng Zong, but Meng Xian's mother is Meng Zong's sister Rao. The Meng family is a relative on this side, they are the same generation, but on the mother's side, they are a generation shorter.

In fact, Meng Xian is not stupid, and he is helpless in this situation on the other side.

He thought to himself:

Tang Xiao's army is unstoppable and rushes to the south, and the grain route has been cut off, what can I, as the Governor of Liang, do?

I'm flying over to deliver food?

If you want to survive at this time, you can only let Zhang Zhikui continue the original policy and storm Jingbei, if you can take Xiangcheng and take away Xiao Han's food, then there is still a glimmer of life, but Xiao Han, the nine-rank general, is simply like a divine help, he only has 50,000 soldiers in his hands, but under his leadership, he rushed left and right, and stirred up Zhang Zhikui, Wan Lin, and Huang Ying's hundreds of thousands of troops.

What's even more hateful is that Cen Shen, it turns out that the general of the Meng family, the sworn friend of the fifth prince Meng Du, now has a counterattack, and he still has a reason, his fifth son was killed by the eldest son Meng Zong, and he wants to avenge the fifth son.

He Nana, not only does he not have to bear the infamy of rebellion, but he also stands on the moral high ground of his loyal old master, I really don't know which bastard gave him the idea. It's a great trick.

Meng Xian held his breath in his heart, took more than a dozen cronies, and scolded Meng Zong while running, Meng Zong did not bring out Meng Xian's parents, wife and children when he fled Luoyang, in other words, he didn't care about my family at all.

What else can I sell my life to you?

He also cried with me in a fake way, and my wife and daughter were still trapped in the city, and I was so miserable.

What kind of grandson are you pretending to be with me?

It's all a thousand-year-old fox, don't you play that fake fairy, I don't know you yet?

is ruthless, even ignoring his relatives, what kind of family love do I still read with you!

Meng Xian asked the people around him, if they want to save their families, of course everyone wants to save them, Meng Xian: While Meng Zong has not completely fallen, let's hurry to Luoyang and surrender to His Majesty the Emperor, maybe by doing this, we still have hope to leave a life.

Meng Xian's words were completely a gamble, and he was gambling with his life.

A few of them were shaken, and Meng Xian did not force them, so they parted ways with a goodbye.

Meng Xian finally took a few cavalry and headed for Luoyang.

——

The rain has stopped, but it hasn't stopped.

The soldiers soaked in the rain

The soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army, who had been on the long march of laborers, were exhausted, and some of them could not withstand the sudden heavy rain and had fallen ill.

In Simon Johnson's account, the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

The old prime minister, who had white hair, had a cold face, his eyes were gloomy, and he suddenly shouted: "Concentrate all your forces and only fight in the south, you must take Luoyang before Tang Su and Lin Chongyang arrive!" Build a canopy, release wolf smoke, and activate the dead soldiers in the city! ”

The tiger army rushed to the south city wall like a tsunami, and the arrows flew all over the place, drawing black lines, and the city wall was miserable.

The battle is on again.

At this time, Tang Qi, the governor of Gyeonggi Defense, led people to hide in the mountains and forests outside the city, and the Empress Dowager Cao appointed Cao Sheng as the governor of Gyeonggi to replace Tang Qi.

Emperor Zhao Ce just fell asleep on the table, when he heard a burst of panicked footsteps and the scout's loud shout, he woke up suddenly, and he didn't hear what the scout was talking about, he rushed over, grabbed the scout's arm and asked, "Is the queen okay?" ”

The scout was stunned, forgot the etiquette, looked at His Majesty the Emperor's red eyes, his lips moved, and he opened his mouth to stammer: "The Emperor's ...... Her Royal Highness does not know whether she is alive or dead. ”

"What?! What does it mean to not know life and death?! You talk, you talk, you hurry up! "The Emperor is a little crazy.

"Ce'er, don't panic." Empress Dowager Cao patted Zhao Ce on the shoulder and asked the scout to step back: "The queen is hiding in the dense forest now, with Tang Yuan's protection by her side, there will be no problems." ”

"With Tang Yuan's protection? My Queen, I want him to protect you! ”

"Huh? Is there anything wrong with this? Tang Yuan, as your courtier, couldn't be more reasonable to protect Niangniang. Empress Dowager Cao seemed to have a premonition, but now was not the time to dwell on those things, so she comforted: "I think you are too tired, you better continue to rest." ”

The emperor calmed down, waved his hand and said, "I'm too tired, but I can't sleep at all, I'm going to go to the moon tower to have a look." ”

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, after reading it, the young emperor's heart almost shattered.

I saw a large group of chaotic people, rushing towards the palace like crazy, among them some guys with sharp knives, good martial arts, have broken through the palace guard line.

At this time, all the people who could be sent to fight were sent to the city wall, and there were only a few hundred people guarding the palace.

"This ...... What's going on? Isn't the mood of the people of Luoyang to beg thieves quite high? I am usually sympathetic to the people and treat them so well, why do I still break into the palace at a critical moment? What are they going to do! Is it impossible to assassinate me? Emperor Zhao Ce panicked and watched the chaotic people break into the palace, and there was a big chaos.

"Oh, Your Majesty the Emperor, let's go, let's go, I can't stay here!" The imperial supervisor Huang Gonggong was old and long-looking, had seen the world, and knew that this group of chaotic people could not be provoked at all, so he ran away with the emperor and wanted to hide in the secret room of the palace as Zheng

Emperor Zhao Ce cried while running, and his heart was cold.

If the people were just trying to escape for their lives, it would be fine if they forcibly broke into the palace, but just now he saw someone burning the house in the palace with torches, and the emperor's heart was burned cold by that torch.

Thankfully, the rain was still falling and the fire didn't burn.

At this time, the corpses of the southern artillery company and the corpses transported from the city were already piled up.

The old general Zhang Yunlong and his old partner Cao Sheng fought side by side, and suddenly heard someone shouting that the palace was in chaos.

Zhang Yunlong was taken aback, turned his head to look, and gasped.

"Simon thief! What a means! Zhang Yunlong scolded and turned around to go down to the city, but was stopped by Cao Sheng beside him.

Cao Sheng laughed and said, "Brother Yunlong, don't panic, I expected that Ximen Zhensen would come to this trick, so I have already made arrangements." ”
