Chapter 666: The Great Evacuation
Luo Zhaoyun led his troops to conquer Tubo, and Xue Ju, the overlord of Western Qin, sent troops to exert pressure and stormed Tang Bi in Fufeng County. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The imperial court of Daxingcheng was temporarily in charge of the acting king Yang Yu, assisted by the military department Shangshu Wei Wensheng, and ran Guanlong, but the number of Great Sui Qi has been exhausted, and the local government soldiers and local bureaucrats and wealthy families have no longer obeyed the transfer of the imperial court, so the sphere of influence is shrinking, and it can only be limited to Jingzhao County.
Now Jingyang and other cities in the north of Jingzhao County have been captured by Li Shimin and Li Xiuning's soldiers and horses, and they are marching towards Daxing City, and they will be able to reach the city in a few days.
Wei Wensheng was a little powerless, originally planned to use Luo Cheng's military strength in the northwest to deter Longyou and Hexi, and then bring troops to King Qin in time to contact the safety of Daxing City, but after the imperial court sent Yao Silian to the northwest to canonize and supervise the army, he did not return in time, according to his reply to the letter, to stay in the northwest temporarily, educate the Confucian students there, and stabilize the number of borders.
As for Luo Cheng's reply, he will not be able to advance eastward until the beginning of spring next year, and he will not attack Xue Ju for the time being, nor will he be able to break the siege in Daxing City, so that they can hold out for half a year by themselves, and they will be able to lead the army to come next year.
Wei Wensheng complained bitterly in his heart, half a year is not long, it is not short, whether he can hold on, he is not sure.
At this moment, the chief of the guard came into the mansion to report that the old man Luo they were monitoring had disappeared, and there was no one in the entire Luo mansion.
"What!" Wei Wensheng was taken aback, this is a big event.
Since Luo Zhaoyun went to the northwest and became more and more powerful, the imperial court was afraid of him, and sent people to keep a firm watch on Luofu, especially the old man Luo, who treated him as a hostage bargaining chip.
All along, Old Man Luo has been in the capital and has no abnormal behavior, which makes the court people such as Yang Yu and Wei Wensheng feel that Luo Cheng, the prince of the country and Youguo, has no ambitions, and is still dedicated to the country.
Moreover, all the ministers and nobles felt that if the Luo Mansion did not move, it meant that Luo Cheng would bring troops back to rescue him, and he would not let his family be in danger.
At this juncture, Luo Rong disappeared strangely, disappeared, and Luo's mansion became empty, which made Wei Wensheng's heart feel bad.
"Luo Cheng, do you want to rebel, or are you not optimistic about Xijing's defense, thinking that Daxing City will be lost?" Wei Wensheng thought of two possibilities, both of which were greatly detrimental to the court of the acting king, and the last hope of revival in his heart was about to be dashed.
If Lian Luo Chengdu established himself as king in the northwest and plotted to rebel against the Sui, then the imperial court would really be hopeless and hopeless.
"Immediately send someone to chase him out, within a radius of 100 miles, search for Luo Rong's whereabouts, and be sure to capture it back, this is the key to holding Luo Cheng hostage, without the old man Luo, Luo Cheng's side will be large, if some nobles in the capital know that the people's hearts are unstable, many people will think that the court is hopeless, easy to be rebelled, defective, surrender to the rebels outside the city, and have a great impact on the morale of the army." Wei Wensheng was really anxious.
"The subordinates understand, so they will send someone to chase after them."
"Remember, pay attention to proportion, don't hurt Old Man Luo, this is our umbrella!" Wei Wensheng reminded him, don't treat it as a violation by the court, hurt your body, and offend deeply, if you force Luo Cheng to really rebel, it will be self-defeating.
"Yes!" This confidant military attache of Wei Wensheng immediately left the mansion and mobilized the manpower of the Wuhou Mansion to go out of the city to track down the whereabouts of Luo Rong and his family.
However, this is doomed to be in vain, because Yanlang Pavilion and Jinyi will work together, and they have already prepared multiple sets of plans to ensure that nothing goes wrong, and they will be scattered and transferred away unconsciously.
In fact, Luo Zhaoyun had long planned to send someone to pick up Old Man Luo, because he knew very well that the guards of Daxing City could not stop Li Tang's military horses, and he himself did not have time to attack Daxing in advance, and because he was a concubine, a great Sui Fu general, Youguo Gong and other identities, he was very glamorous and righteous, so if Luo Zhaoyun went to Daxing City first, the previous character and image would collapse, and the tongue and voice would fall.
After all, although the Great Sui is dying, after all, he was once prosperous, and there was a prosperous era in the period of Emperor Wen, many scholars and old nobles, retired officials, and old Confucians, often pen Yang Guang, but not against the Great Sui, and still remember the glorious days of the Great Sui ten years ago, they will also use the pen to crusade against those rebels.
Luo Zhaoyun combined objective and subjective factors before temporarily giving up the attack on Daxing City, but he wanted to take the people of Luofu out in advance.
Unexpectedly, Old Man Luo had a strong personality and did not agree to retreat prematurely, because he saw the situation very thoroughly, if he left early, if the court was suspicious of the Luo family's father and son, whether it was Luo Cheng, Luo Yi, or Luo Shou, they would be guarded against, supervised, and some rights would be withdrawn.
As long as Old Man Luo is in Daxing City, everything is as usual, bright and straightforward, and he looks frank, the development of Luo Cheng and Luo Yi can be smooth.
I have to say that Jiang is still old and spicy, this Luo Rong has some resourcefulness, and he has done enough to make Wei Wensheng, Yang Yu, and the ministers of the court relax a lot, as long as Luo Rong is in Daxing City, everyone's suspicion of Luo Cheng's father and son is much smaller.
And now, when the time is ripe, Luo Rong knows through letters that he must go, otherwise it will be easy to be besieged by Li Tang's army and used as a bargaining chip to threaten Luo Cheng.
Therefore, Luo Rong decisively decided to evacuate, and obeyed the arrangements of the commanders of Yanlang Pavilion, and was sent out of the city by Yi Rong, and his family members were also broken into pieces in the second half of the night and sent away.
During this time period, at the same time, there were also some noble children and Taiyuan Junyan, such as Yu Shinan and Xue Zhiqing.
These young talents, Luo Zhaoyun will not be left to the Li family, as for those middle-aged generations, they are more stable, remain neutral for the time being, and do not want to stand in line too early, after all, once they leave, the family is too big, and it is likely to be retaliated against by the court of the acting king and Li Tangjun.
