Chapter 243: Sending Troops to Guanzhong (4) (2nd Update)
In the rebel camp, craftsmen are hurrying to make siege weapons.
The reason why the attack during the day failed was because of the lack of siege weapons, the number of ladders was much smaller, and there were not even large siege weapons such as battering rams.
It's not that the craftsmen under Li Changfu can't, but because the time is pressing, they don't have time to make so much.
Li Changfu thought that an attack of 10,000 troops would be able to attack Baoji, but he did not expect that not only did he not attack the city, but also lost more than 5,000 people.
Most of the people who lost were his army, and it would be false to say that he was not distressed.

However, he was not in a hurry, and during the day's attack, he had already found out the reality of the defenders in the city. His 10,000 troops almost attacked the city, but imagine how weak the army in the city is, as long as he attacks with all his strength tomorrow, he can take Baoji.
Thinking that Li Yi would fall into his hands, Li Changfu's eyes couldn't help but squint.
Although he and Zhu Mei were allies, Zhu Mei began to exclude him after supporting Li Xuan, the heir of the king of Xiang. This attack is a trick of Zhu Mei, if Li Yi dies from his own attack, then Zhu Mei can find an excuse to deal with him.
He also knew this, so he ordered the soldiers not to shoot arrows into the city, in case the emperor was killed, then he would be yellow mud falling into the crotch of his pants, not but.
However, this does not ensure that it is foolproof, after all, there are no eyes for knives and guns.
According to Zhu Mei's meaning, after capturing Li Yu, the other party was executed, so that Li Xu, the emperor, was the only orthodox emperor.
This can be seen Zhu Mei's sinister intentions, let him do everything, and he is also responsible for the accident.
If Li Yi is really obtained, Li Changfu will naturally not be able to kill the other party or hand it over to Zhu Mei, and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, Zhu Mei can do it, but he can't do it yet.
Just when he was thinking about what to do after capturing Li Yi, his henchman Xue Zhichou ran over, "Jie Shuai, there is bad news that King Shou's Tiance army has occupied Fengzhou. β
"Fengzhou?" Li Changfu was stunned for a moment, "Isn't that Niu Miao's territory?" β
"According to the news from the spies, Niu Miao was killed by the general Gong Xian, and now the Tiance army has occupied Xingfeng Erzhou." Xue Zhichou explained.
"What? The cow died? β
Li Changfu had dealt with Niu Miao, but he didn't expect to die suddenly. Niu Miao this person is quite a nest anyway, a good Shannan West Road Festival Envoy, was driven out of Xingyuan Mansion by the loyal army Lu Yanhong, and then became a righteous army festival envoy who only governed two states, now it is good, the generals under his command rebelled, and directly killed him to join King Shou.
"Commander, during the day, there were several groups of cavalry of the Shence Army breaking through, and I was worried that they were going to ask King Shou for help. If the Tiance Army sends troops, I'm afraid it will γγγγγ Xue Zhichou said worriedly.
"Afraid of what? If King Shou had the courage to send troops, he wouldn't have waited so long. Li Changfu said disapprerovitically.
The news of King Shou's defeat of the East and West Sichuan coalition has spread, and many people were surprised at the beginning, but they didn't expect the little-known King Shou to develop rapidly in Shu.
It's just that due to the unpredictable situation in Guanzhong, Li Ye didn't make any big moves, so everyone's attention was attracted by Guanzhong.
Unexpectedly, at this time, King Shou jumped out again.
"Jie Shuai, I think it's better to guard against King Shou. After all, Emperor Taishang is the royal brother of King Shou, if he learns about Emperor Taishang's current situation, it is difficult to guarantee that King Shou will not send troops. β
"Then send someone to keep an eye on Chen Cangdao, and wait until tomorrow after taking Baoji, even if King Shou comes?" Li Changfu said disdainfully.
For King Shou, there are not many people in the world who take it in their eyes at this time, it is very simple, King Shou is too young, and his age makes many people ignore his strength.
Even if the Tiance Army defeated the Dongxichuan Coalition Army, in the eyes of these people, it was not an uncommon thing, after all, the Dongxichuan Army was not a powerful army.
Although he said so, Li Changfu still kept a hand and sent people to Baoji City to persuade him to surrender.
Don't underestimate these feudal envoys, if you don't have a little ability, how can you become a festival envoy, really think that Li Changfu's festival envoy is not what Li Changyan gave him?
Without any ability, can he suppress those arrogant soldiers?
γγγγγγ
"What? This Li Changfu is simply hateful. Your Majesty, it is impossible to listen to him, this is his conspiracy. β
Hearing that the execution of himself was one of the conditions for Li Changfu to give up the attack, Tian Lingzi directly scolded Li Changfu regardless of the occasion.
He didn't expect that this Li Changfu was really turning his face faster than turning a book, and he was purely a white-eyed wolf. You must know that his brother and he can become the envoy of the festival successively is his help, and now it's good, he actually wants to put him to death, isn't this a white-eyed wolf?
"Father-in-law Tian, why are you so excited, is it because your heart is weak?" Yang Fugong said lightly.
"Hmph, don't think that after the city is broken, you can please it, if Li Changfu is a person who believes in his word, he will not face each other with swords." Tian Lingzi didn't know that these people were about to lose their position, and they all wanted to step on it.
The struggle among these eunuchs was also very fierce, he just found a reason to drive Yang Fugong down, and now it was his turn.
"Li Changfu really said that he could not hurt me?" Li Yi asked suddenly.
"Your Majesty... Tian Lingzi was in a hurry, this emperor was moved.
"Let's just say if it's true!" Li Yi said dissatisfied.
"Back to Your Majesty, Li Changfu's envoy did say so." Wei Zhaodu hurriedly stepped forward and replied.
"Is the man still there? Let him in. Li Yi said overjoyed.
Li Yi's attitude made Tian Lingzi very anxious, Liu Kui and Yang Fugong also frowned, the two glanced at each other, and thought, this emperor wants to mess around.
However, neither of them moved, and Wei Zhaodu over there asked someone to bring Li Changfu's envoy. The reason why Wei Zhaodu was so active was because Li Changfu's camp would not harm them, the ministers who followed Li Yu, but only killed Tian Lingzi.
Although he knew that this might be Li Changfu's conspiracy, Wei Zhaodu thought of his grudge with King Shou, if King Shou came to the rescue, what would he do?
And Li Changfu is just a military general, there is nothing in the court, even if the other party coerces the Son of Heaven to order the princes, they have to need these ministers.
Soon three men were brought in, the leader was the envoy of Li Changfu's faction, and the last two were the accompanying servants.
"Do you really say that you won't harm my life?" Li Yi hurriedly asked.
When the envoy heard about the joke, he hurriedly replied, "Back to Your Majesty, the marshal of my family has always been loyal to Your Majesty, but he was deceived and coerced by Zhu Mei before. Before coming, my marshal said that as long as His Majesty believes in the loyalty of my marshal, he is willing to lead tens of thousands of Fengxiang troops and send them to Chang'an to help His Majesty return to Beijing. β
"Good, good!"
Hearing the envoy's personal promise, Li Yi was in a very good mood, and at this moment, an accident happened, and when everyone did not react, Li Yingxu suddenly pulled out the saber of a soldier next to him, and directly hacked Li Changfu's messenger to death on the spot.
This change caught everyone off guard.
"Bold!" Li Yi was very angry, pointing at Li Yingxu's hand and shaking constantly.
The other ministers were also stunned, and the two servants sat down and shivered.
"Come on, drag the body out, then drag these two people out, and cut them down in front of the rebels outside the city tomorrow morning." Li Yingxu returned the saber to the soldiers on the side, said lightly, and then walked forward and saluted Li Yi slightly, "Your Majesty, this person is bewitching the public and is suspected of disturbing the morale of the army, please forgive your Majesty for not having time to report it." β
"Bold, you actually did it in front of me, you are guilty of the following crimes. Someone, drag him out and cut him down. Li Yi yelled.
But no soldier stepped forward for half a day, and the soldiers present looked at each other, and when they saw that Liu Kui couldn't speak, they just stood there, pretending not to hear.
There is no doubt that this made Li Yi very angry, "What do you want to do? Want to rebel with him? Or does King Shou really want to rebel? β
"Your Majesty has too many hearts, if King Shou really has an anti-heart, Your Majesty may not be able to sit here and give orders now, right?" Li Yingxu said lightly.
Li Yi was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak, but Yang Fugong, who had never said anything about this matter, stood up, "Your Majesty, although Li Changshi is a little impulsive, it is also for the sake of Your Majesty. Li Changfu did not believe in his words, he sent this envoy to disturb the morale of the army and confuse His Majesty, and Your Majesty must not be deceived by him. β
"You... You guys... β
Looking at Yang Fugong, Liu Kui, and Li Yingxu, Li Yi was suddenly in a hurry and fainted on the spot. As for whether it is a real halo or a false halo, I don't know.
Yang Fugong instructed the imperial doctor to treat Li Yi, and then left here, as for the safety here, he was not worried, this was Liu Kui's cronies defending, neither Li Yi nor Tian Lingzi could make big waves.
Moreover, Tian Lingzi's cronies also chose to take refuge in Yang Fugong or Liu Kui, and now the eunuch has become a lonely person, but Li Yi didn't speak, and everyone moved him.
When Yang Fugong came out, he found that Li Yingxu was already waiting for him, so he asked curiously, "Li Changshi is waiting for our family?" β
"Doesn't Privy Envoy Yang have something to ask?" Li Yingxu smiled faintly.
Yang Fugong was a little surprised, calmed down and said, "Now our family is very suspicious that King Shou will cross the river and demolish the bridge after he comes, Li Changshi was so strong just now, so our family can't help but be a little worried." β
"It turns out that Privy Envoy Yang is worried about this." Li Yingxu was not too surprised, "Your Highness should arrive tomorrow, and then the privy envoy can talk directly to Your Highness, and you don't dare to make decisions for Your Highness."
However, it is clear that what His Highness promised will generally not be reversed. β
"This is the best, although our family agrees to cooperate with your Royal Highness, I have some doubts in my heart, don't be surprised." Yang Fugong squinted his eyes, also thinking about the meaning of Li Yingxu's words.
"Naturally not. However, the privy envoy still should not think too much, after all, it is difficult to say whether he can hold out until the arrival of His Highness. β
After Li Yingxu finished speaking, he laughed and left, leaving Yang Fugong there to think alone.
