Chapter 687: Hu Qi Kills
Paper can't contain fire, and in the face of truth, any lie will sooner or later be ruthlessly shattered by the Holy Skull. {Leaderboard.} The inhabitants of Luoyang City have never felt that life is so difficult now, panic is accompanied by meaningless waiting, waiting for the Hu people's scimitar to cut their necks, waiting for the Hu people to take away their belongings, waiting for the Hu people to take away their wives and daughters, however, so far, the imperial court does not seem to have any effective measures to deal with it, except for closing the city 'gates' and not allowing them to leave the city.
There is even more depressing news that Li Huaitang is leaving and going to Liaodong to lead the Ningyuan Iron Cavalry to fight against An Hu'er.
On this day, tens of thousands of residents on the road leading to the Upper East 'Gate' were rushed by the noise, no, it should be hundreds of thousands of residents. Li Huaitang and his entourage were surrounded by hundreds of horsemen and more than a dozen carriages, unable to move an inch.
"General, you can't go!"
The leaders who took the lead in blocking the road were Zuo Qinglong and You Baihu, the two knelt in front of Li Huaitang's war horse, and refused to get up for anything. Hearing the news, the surviving soldiers of the Northern Army followed and knelt on the ground, and then the onlookers of Luoyang residents also knelt.
"General, please stay!"
I don't know who took the lead in repeating sensational slogans, and the momentum grew, neat and loud. Comrade Xiao Li's bitter persuasion was quickly drowned out in the hearts of the masses.
In the East Palace of the Prince, Wang Zhongsi and Wu Zhiyi urgently asked to see the crown prince Li Xiang.
"What? Li Huaitang is leaving? When was this? How did Lone not know? ”
The four questions were sent in a row, and Wang Zhongsi and Wu Zhiyi were stunned for a while. The prince was actually 'kept in the dark'.
Damn it, damn Li Linfu!
Li Xiang roared. Li Linfu, the center of power, did not take him as a prince in his eyes at all, and Li Huaitang's resignation was intercepted by him, and he also approved the word "consent" in a chic manner.
Who is most beneficial to Li Huaitang's departure? Of course, it is the Shouwang Party, without Li Huaitang's elbow, they can more calmly arrange the 'yin' plot to seize the throne.
The prince was angry, but there was nothing he could do, the old emperor went north, ostensibly let him supervise the country, but in fact the power was in the cabinet, Li Linfu didn't like him at all, and unscrupulously did things to treat him as a human 'meat' stamp. This can be seen from the process and results of yesterday's court meeting.
Helpless, they could only pace around.
Is measuring floors fun? Your Highness, think of a way!
Wu Zhiyi was so anxious that he scratched his head.
Do you think I don't want to? But you want me...... Hey? What was that?
The movement outside the palace looks like a military parade before His Majesty's departure that day.
The army rebelled?
Li Xiang was a little nervous, cup bow snake shadow.
Wang Zhongsi explained, saying that it was the people's desire to keep Li Huaitang. [《》`.]
The Prince's East Palace is close to the east side of the Imperial Palace, adjacent to the Upper East Avenue across the Imperial City, and the chorus of hundreds of thousands of people can easily be transmitted to the good-looking: the god who is messing around in another world.
Wang Zhongsi took the opportunity to say: "Your Highness personally came forward to ask Li Huaitang to stay, maybe only he can help His Highness deal with the immediate external and internal troubles." ”
Let Li Xiangtang, the first prince, put down his dignity and beg the ministers, how can he be embarrassed?
It's okay not to go, it can be predicted, there are two endings waiting for him: the top of the list is An Lushan who brought the old emperor back, and then he was evaporated from the world, and An Huer established himself as the crown prince and successfully inherited the old emperor's country; Secondly, the brothers were on the wall, King Shou ascended the throne, and he sold salted duck eggs. Either way, it was not what he wanted, but he had no choice, who made his roots like duckweed? If you want to go against the sky, unless, as Wang Zhongsi said, please let Li Huaitang, who supported his accession to the throne, stay.
Go! Zhou Gong spit and feed, and I can too.
What face can be more important than the throne? It's not like the world is in the heart, you have to do it, and you have to do it with a thick skin.
At this side, Li Huaitang was in a dilemma, maybe he could drink and ask Zuo Qinglong to give way, but he couldn't ignore the crying and pleas of the residents of Luoyang, and the people couldn't move him, so they turned to beg Princess Broken Leaves.
"Li Lang," Pei Ruoxi stood out of the carriage in response to the appeal, her pretty face was full of unbearability, and she seemed to have softened.
Li Huaitang smiled bitterly and said in her ear: "The imperial court does not allow it, even if I reluctantly stay, I can't change the fate of Luoyang City." ”
"But,"
"No, but living well is the last word......
The prince to other book friends are watching: The latest chapter of the Reborn Outsider!
The chanting from the direction of the imperial city behind him interrupted Li Huaitang.
The crowd saw hope, and in their eyes, the crown prince was more powerful than all of them.
Li Xiang dismounted when there was some distance and walked to Li Huaitang.
"If their sincerity is not enough, then count them as the only one." In front of everyone's eyes, Li Xiang's actions were amazing, and he actually bent down to Li Huaitang.
"Your Highness, don't do that."
Li Huaitang was taken aback and hurriedly stopped.
Li Xiangzheng said: "Lone is not here for himself, and Lonely's worship represents the public opinion of Luoyang City." If the general is still insufficient, why not kneel down on his knees for the sake of the Tang Dynasty? ”
Dizzy, another politician. In this regard, Li Xiang is at ease.
Li Huaitang is not a good man and believes that 'women' don't eat this set, and he was about to say no, when he suddenly heard the sound of drums in the east of the city.
Everyone was stunned, and the timid were all frightened.
Determined to be an alarm signal, despite Luoyang's century-old invincibility, people can still discern the meaning of the drum.
Anhur is coming, and the Turks are coming to see something good: Treasure Appreciation!
The whole city shook. The panicked eyes moved from scattered to concentrated, from agitated to quiet, all of them focused on Li Huaitang, hoping to seek some comfort from the god of war.
As if it wasn't enough to sting the 'excited', a horse galloped over in a panic from the direction of the upper east 'gate' and rushed into the crowd.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
The knight ran at full speed, not caring whether he would hurt the innocent, until he was stopped by the prince's guards. The knight jumped off his horse and stumbled to Li Xiang.
"Turks, Turks, coming, coming, good, so many ......"
I don't know if it was because of the anxiety or the asthma, maybe both, in short, a more serious panic disorder spread from his mouth.
Li Xiang forced his composure: "How many people came?" ”
"Many, many, tens of thousands, no, tens of thousands, no, countless."
Dare to love that this reporter is the head of the fuzzy faction.
How much exactly? The head of the 'door' has no score in his heart, anyway, he can't count them, because he hasn't seen them at all. His scouts fled faster than the refugees, and all information came from the refugees.
Miraculously, the situation was severe, but the defenders had only a few rangers outside the city, and the court behaved like a turtle more like an ostrich, closing all the gates of the city, thinking that it was safe from now on.
Hearing that there are more than 100,000 Hu Qi outside the city, many people who don't know the truth gasped, and the panic quickly rose to the state of the six gods and no owner Other book friends are reading: Father-in-law can too.
"Li Lang," Pei Ruoxi nervously grabbed Ailang's arm, her beautiful eyes flashing with worry.
Li Huaitang caressed his wife, comforted him a few words, and then looked at Li Xiang.
It can be seen that Li Xiang's 'legs' are trembling, and he can't react when he looks at Li Huaitang.
At this time, what Li Xiang was most afraid of was that the old emperor was kidnapped by Hu Qi and appeared outside the city, if the worry came true, he, the crown prince, would be the end. Li Huaitang understood his thoughts and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, it must be the vanguard of Anhu'er who comes so quickly, and there will not be many of them." The Emperor was old and frail, and it would take at least five days to arrive. Anhur needs to open the gates of the city along the way to get food to maintain the military needs, and I am afraid that the delay will be even longer. Things are still okay, Huai Tang is not talented, and he is willing to lead the army to retreat from the enemy, but he hopes that after defeating the anti-thief vanguard, he can hear His Highness's determination. ”
Li Xiang nodded, gritted his teeth and took off the saber, holding it in both hands and handing it to Li Huaitang. "The lonely fat cavalry general is the general of Luoyang City's city defense, knows all the things of the enemy, and has the right to act cheaply."
"I am willing to follow the general and kill the enemy!"
Wu Zhiyi stood firmly beside Li Huaitang and shouted, and the soldiers responded one after another.
In a hurry, Li Huaitang unceremoniously accepted the knife presented by the prince, jumped on the horse, and shouted: "Wang Zhonghei Wu Zhiyi listens to the order." ”
Wang Zhongsi and Wu Zhiyi were shocked and gave up their hands to answer the order.
"You and others led his subordinates to the Upper East 'Gate' to gather other book friends are reading: the latest chapter list of the Demon King's harem manager."
"Yes!"
"The king repents and obeys orders."
"In!" Wang Cheng was quite surprised, but he didn't expect Li Huaitang to order him.
"Order you to lead the left and right Yulin army capable fighters and supervise the 'gate' guards on the city wall to defend, and Zhang Qiu Pei Nan will cooperate with you, and those who do not obey will be decided.!"
Before the expedition, the left and right Yulin armies totaled nearly 40,000, and only a few thousand fled back with Li Huaitang, a small number, but they were all tested by blood and fire, and in terms of morale, they were even higher than ever before. This is a team of 'elite' soldiers with potential, and Chen Xuanli must not be cheapened.
Li Huaitang also wanted to issue an order to impose martial law in the whole city, but unfortunately the troops were insufficient, and he was also worried that overstepping his authority would cause unease among all factions, after all, the prince was also taboo about his control of the city's power.
The concise and clear order was decisively issued, and the congregation set off one after another.
After making simple arrangements for his family, Li Huaitang took his own cavalry and went straight to the Shangdong 'Gate'. The crowd standing in the way has dispersed as requested.
The smell of war wafted through the city, and people prayed and waited in anxiety.
Outside the Upper East Gate, refugees cry in droves and beg to be opened for shelter. Behind them, refugees poured in.
What's going on?
The guard of the prison 'gate' will report to Li Huaitang the cry of the refugees: Last night, a large number of Hu cavalry smuggled across the Yellow River, burning, killing and looting everywhere they passed, and drove the refugees to flee to Luoyang Sacred Heart with the fear of death.
Hu Cai's trick could not be more obvious, intending to let the refugees squeeze through the city gate, and then they 'touched' the fish in troubled waters.
"Tell people outside the city that those who want to enter the city will go to the south city to carry the 'gate', and the noon time is limited to the time to expire."
"But all the gates are not allowed to be opened? Do you really want to let them into the city? The guards doubted Li Huaitang's ignorance.
"Where is so much nonsense, just do it."
The guard will be bored and leave in a huff.
At this time, the flying eagle got up from the ground and said, "It is less than twenty miles, and it is too scattered to be discerned, but it is certain that there are at least five thousand horsemen." ”
As he spoke, the guards ran in a panic.
Oh no, no, General Gao is under the city, saying something that asks us to save the 'girl'.
Show 'female'? Tall general? Which tall general?
It's Colliers!
The guards once again despised Li Huaitang's ignorance.
Selling cakes, Li Huaitang remembered that Gao Lishi was ordered to go to Jiangnanhai to draft 'women', and he came back at this time sooner or later...... Please share the first release without ads
