Chapter 260: The Storm is Coming (Second Watch)

"Fourth brother, what now? It is really hateful that this Shou King wants to kill us completely. ”

Chengdu, Jiedu Embassy, Chen Jingxuan walked around the house in a panic, talking as he walked.

And next to him, Tian Lingzi is no better. At this time, Tian Lingzi was just pretending to be calm, and his constantly shaking legs revealed his true inner --- restlessness at this time.

So-called, what are you afraid of.

Just when Chen Jingxuan's six gods were ownerless, someone outside suddenly came to report.

Hanzhou Thorn Shi Kaesong surrendered!

"Damn, really hateful!" Chen Jingxuan scolded.

"That's it!"

Tian Lingzi slapped the table heavily, the teacup on the table also shook randomly twice, and the tea inside also overflowed, he looked at Chen Jingxuan, and said with a calm face, "Is it useful to say these now?" For today's plan, either you die or I live, only by resisting to the end can there be a trace of life. ”

Chen Jingxuan's staff also hurriedly persuaded, "Marshal, what the Duke of Jin said is right, Chengdu City has high walls and thick walls, as long as we defend it properly, the imperial army will not be able to enter it." As long as the imperial army could not attack Chengdu, it would naturally retreat.

As a matter of urgency, the marshal should withdraw all the surrounding troops and hold on to Chengdu. With Chengdu's grain reserves, even if it lasts for a year and a half, it is not a problem at all. ”

This staff member is not wrong, in history, Wei Zhaodu was ordered to attack Xichuan, and he did not break through Chengdu for three years. The high walls of Chengdu are one reason, and the affluence of Chengdu also allows Chengdu to hold out for a long time.

The three provinces of Shudi, Xichuan is the richest, even if it was disturbed by Zhao Xiong before, Xichuan is still richer than Shannan Xidao, who said that Xichuan is located in the core of the country of abundance?

"Second brother, just do what Li Zhiya said. It was purely an accident that Chengdu was breached before, and this time the imperial court only sent tens of thousands of troops, as long as we are prepared, they will not be able to enter. Chen Jingxun on the side hurriedly persuaded.

Since learning that the imperial army was coming to crusade against Xichuan, Chen Jingxun directly handed over the state affairs to the following Changshi, and ran back to Chengdu directly. How can his state have a sense of security in Chengdu, only if the imperial court withdraws troops, he will go back.

Under the persuasion of everyone, Chen Jingxuan decided to stick to Chengdu. At random, he ordered the troops of the surrounding states to be transferred to Chengdu, and forcibly recruited strong men in Chengdu to participate in the defense of the city, and he pulled out an army of 50,000 for a while.

Even if he cobbled together an army of 50,000, Chen Jingxuan still had no confidence, and he didn't dare to go out of the city to face the battle, but stayed in the turtle shell that he thought could not be attacked.

When he saw Chen Jingxuan closed the city, Liu Qi was a little surprised. However, thinking that the artillery capital had not arrived, Liu Qi did not let people attack the city, but stationed in Xindu, and at the same time asked people to cut down trees nearby to make engineering weapons, including making stone bullets.

Chengdu city has thick walls?

If there is no Tiance cannon, maybe Liu Qi really has nothing to do with Chengdu. But in front of the Tiance Cannon, unless your wall is made of granite or something, it is impossible for an ordinary brick wall to block the attack of the Tiance Cannon.

And Li Ye still has a backhand, Liu Qi, who knows the inside story, is naturally not in a hurry.

Liu Qi, who was not in a hurry, asked Peng He to take the Right Yulin Army to capture Pengzhou, Shuzhou and other places, and by the way, he practiced military training, while he took the Right Tiance Army to confront Chen Jingxuan, who was holding Chengdu, in the new capital.

。。。。。。

"The sky in Chang'an is going to change!"

Standing in the attic of his house, King Xue Li Zhirou looked at the direction of King Shou's Mansion and Daming Palace respectively, and shook his head with a flat expression.

"Uncle Huang, then what attitude should we have?" Peng Wang Li Ti asked.

Li Ti naturally knew what this change of heaven meant.

During this time, the contradiction between Yang Fugong and King Shou became more and more prominent, and the court was even more-for-tat, and a month ago, King Shou transferred Zuo Yulin's army to Chang'an City to be responsible for defense.

They can also guess who is behind Yang Fugong.

As a clan, they actually didn't want to see that kind of situation happen, but the one in Daming Palace was obviously not so willing to lose power, and King Shou would not back down. This dooms someone to be out.

Although these clans don't have any troops, they still have some guards, and if they make up for it, they can still make up for it.

But this belongs to the royal family fighting, and they don't know if it's appropriate for these clans to intervene, anyway, no matter how they fight, the throne can't be their turn, who calls their fathers and ancestors not to fight?

"Although I'm more optimistic about that kid of King Shou, it's best for us not to get involved in this matter. After several turmoils, the clan has also suffered heavy losses, and if it is tossed a few times, I am afraid that the clan will no longer exist and will not be able to withstand the toss. Li Zhirou returned to the house, picked up the freshly brewed tea on the table, blew it, and then took a sip, looking extremely intoxicated.

"But this time, the Daming Palace and Yang Fugong obviously relied on it, otherwise it wouldn't have reached the point of tearing up his face with the kid from King Shou. I'm worried about whether King Shou can do it, and I should have advised King Shou not to go to Xichuan at this time before I knew it.

A Chen Jingxuan can't afford to make big waves. Peng Wang Li Ti regretted it a little.

Li Zhirou glanced at the other party, shook his head and smiled, "Didn't you find that this thing is strange?" The battle in the court was actually provoked by King Shou, and King Shou would not know that his forces in Chang'an were a little weak at this time, but he still provoked a fight.

You don't want to think about the reason for this? ”

Li Ti was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be the same, "It seems that I underestimated King Shou, but I don't know what he planned." ”

"Don't worry, this Shouwang is not good at stubble. In fact, if King Shou succeeds, it is indeed a good thing for our clan, he is a person who does great things, maybe Datang can really become strong again in his hands. ”

Li Zhirou and Li Ti's conversation was very bold, but they didn't have the slightest worry, as long as they didn't take the initiative to rebel, no matter who became the emperor, they wouldn't do anything to them.

Who called their generations to be there.

In the past, Li Zhirou might not have said this, but Li Ye's blueprint for their clan painting was too good, even if he was old and didn't care, but he had sons and grandsons.

Don't look at Li Ye, who has not been in charge of Chang'an for even a year, but what he has done has invisibly attracted many people, including the clan, and also those ministers who are interested in reviving the Tang Dynasty.

So at this point, Li Ye already has an advantage.

。。。。。。

After the end of the court meeting on the first day of the first lunar month, Li Yi left the banquet held in the Taiji Palace early. For Li Yi's departure, everyone didn't care, seeing Li Ye in the banquet center, Li Yi felt so uncomfortable, and many people didn't doubt it.

However, after Li Yi left the table, Yang Fugong also left when everyone was not paying attention. However, as soon as Yang Fugong left, someone reported to Li Ye, and Li Ye didn't care about it.

"Your Majesty, the Privy Envoy is here."

Just after Li Yi returned to the harem of Daming Palace to take a bath, Liu Jishu came in and reported.

"Oh? Let him in. Li Yi's face was happy.

Soon, a Yang Fugong wearing ordinary eunuch clothes appeared in Penglai Palace, and Li Yi didn't react at first, and only recognized Yang Fugong when he took off the hat on his head.

Seeing that Li Yi was a little surprised, Yang Fugong explained, "Your Majesty, the old slave is also trying to hide people's eyes. This Daming Palace is closely guarded by the brocade guards, if the old slave comes to see His Majesty at this time is known by King Shou, I am afraid that it will startle the snake. ”

"But why do I think King Shou is aware of it? Otherwise, Zuo Yulin's army would not have been allowed to enter Chang'an City. When it was time to start, Li Yi hesitated a little again.

He was worried that all this was in Li Ye's plan, and he was worried that Li Ye would be ruthless in solving him after failure.

"Your Majesty don't worry, at present, the three troops around King Shou: Zuo Yulin Army, Jinyi Guard, and Shenji Battalion, add up to only 40,000 people.

Moreover, there are also people in the Zuo Yulin army who have been bought by the old slaves, and when the time comes, they will help His Majesty's actions as internal servants.

The Right Shence Army stationed in Fengxiang couldn't come back in a short time.

After the operation began, the old slave would let the Zuo Shence army defeat the Jinyi guards of the Daming Palace, and then directly surround the Shouwang Mansion. As long as King Shou is ambushed, the army below will collapse, and there is nothing to fear.

This is the best-case scenario, in case of an accident. The old slave can take the Zuo Shence army to cover His Majesty's going to Suining, and then counterattack Chang'an with Li Ke's army.

Even if King Shou was aware, he would not have thought that Li Keyong would send troops. Therefore, Your Majesty does not have to worry, under the leadership of His Majesty who is wise and martial, King Shou will definitely be ambushed this time. Yang Fugong said in a deep voice.

At this time, Chang'an City was bounded by Suzaku Street. The east side was defended by the Zuo Yulin Army, and the west side was defended by the Zuo Shence Army, which was the agreement reached by Li Ye and Yang Fugong before.

It stands to reason that Li Ye's troops are more suitable to defend the west of Chang'an City, but the Shouwang Mansion where Li Ye lives is in the east of the city, so there is no doubt that he will be under the control of Yang Fugong.

In addition to this, Daming Palace, Taiji Palace and Xingqing Palace were defended by Jinyi Guard. Because Li Yi is controlled by Li Ye, Yang Fugong generally can't compete with him in the court.

"That's good, that's good." Hearing Yang Fugong's assurance, Li Yi had the bottom in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the old slave has something to tell His Majesty, after this matter is successful, His Royal Highness must not be merciful to King Shou, let alone let the clan be in charge of the army, King Shou is an example." Yang Fugong reminded.

Li Yi was a little displeased, Yang Fugong's seemingly reminder was actually a request, so that he had to kill King Shou.

Killing this royal brother who had the grace to save his life, Li Yi was a little unbearable to be honest. However, when he thought that King Shou dared to commit an offense, worried about his throne, and placed himself under house arrest, the anger in his heart burned.

"This is for sure, King Shou dares to rebel, I naturally will not tolerate him. But let him kill himself if he can, I don't want to order him to be killed, after all, he is my royal brother. Li Yi nodded.

As soon as Li Yi said this, Yang Fugong was relieved, and bowed with his hands together, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the old slave will not embarrass Your Majesty." ”

"When will you do it?" Li Yi said curiously.

"Shangyuan Night. On that day, King Shou was going to hold a celebration in the Taiji Palace, and the defense would definitely be very lax, and King Shou would definitely not have thought that we would do it on Shangyuan Night. ”

Yang Fugong's blazing eyes narrowed, indescribably cold and treacherous!
