Chapter 673: The Great Army Pressed the Realm

Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Deng Yu was defeated by the Red Mei Army in Chang'an, one of which was the huge difference in strength between the enemy and us, and the other was due to the internal friction of Deng Yu's army. During Deng Yu's stationing in Chang'an, Liu Jia came to defect.

Liu Jia is Liu Xiu's brother, because his father died early, he was adopted by Liu Xiu's father Liu Qin, so he is not only Liu Xiu's brother, but also Liu Xiu's brother-in-law, and Liu Xiu and Liu Xiu are like siblings.

After Liu Xuan was proclaimed emperor, he named Liu Jia the king of Hanzhong, and the country was in Hanzhong County. Later, the Red Mei Army attacked Chang'an, killed Liu Xuan, and the first court perished. At this time, Yan Cen suddenly rebelled in Hanzhong, led his troops, and launched an attack on Liu Jia.

Liu Jia was caught off guard by Yancen, defeated, and led the remnants to defeat, and Hanzhong was occupied by Yancen.

Yan Cen successfully occupied Hanzhong County, his ambitions swelled, and he sent troops to attack Wudu County, but he was ambushed by Li Bao, the former minister of the new state, and was defeated by Li Bao's troops.

Liu Jia led the remnants and joined Li Bao's department.

At this time, the first imperial court had perished, and Liu Jia and Li Bao had become ownerless ministers. Li Bao pondered, he simply didn't want to do it alone, and then took refuge in Liu Jia. Liu Jia was overjoyed and named Li Bao the prime minister of his county.

After receiving the defection of Li Bao and his subordinates, Liu Jia's strength increased greatly, and he gathered his remnants and began a counterattack against Yancen.

Yancen was defeated again and again, retreated and retreated, Liu Jia and Li Bao did not relent, pursued all the way, and in the end, forced Yancen into a corner, so he could only lead his troops to surrender.

successfully forced Yancen down, Liu Jia didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief, who knew that the praying mantis was catching cicadas, and the sparrows were behind.

At this time, Gongsun Shu, who had already proclaimed himself emperor in Shu, suddenly sent troops to Hanzhong. Liu Jiabu was defeated, and Gongsun Shu occupied Hanzhong County in one fell swoop.

Misfortune is not a single line, at this time, the Red Eyebrow Army sent troops to attack Liu Jiabu.

Liu Jia, who had no way to retreat, led his troops to fight desperately against the Red Mei Army and repelled several attacks by the Red Mei Army. After several victories against the Red Eyebrow Army, Liu Jia became famous, and more people came to defect, and gradually recovered.

But it was precisely at this time that Yan Cen, who had already surrendered, suddenly rebelled and led his troops to rebel against Liu Jia.

After that, Yan Cen tossed and turned, ran to Nanyang, and colluded with Deng Feng.

Liu Jia and Li Bao led their troops to be stationed in the Yunyang area. At this time, Deng Yu captured Chang'an, and Liu Jia proposed to go to Deng Yu.

Li Bao did not approve of Liu Jia's idea. If you can be a king yourself, why should you be a vassal to others? Now they don't have a lot of soldiers and horses, and their prestige is not small, no matter where they go, they can become the overlord of one side.

After thinking about it, Liu Jiasi still insisted on his own opinion and decided to lead his troops to join Deng Yu.

Of course, what Liu Jia really wants to take refuge in is not Deng Yu, but Liu Xiu behind Deng Yu.

He and Liu Xiu are like brothers and sisters, and now that Liu Xiu is the emperor in Luoyang, he should go to defect. It's just that Luoyang is too far away, but Chang'an is very close, so he went to Deng Yu nearby.

Knowing that Liu Jia led his troops to vote, Deng Yu was naturally very happy and treated Liu Jia as a guest.

Liu Jia was willing to vote, but Li Bao was not. After seeing Deng Yu, Li Bao had an arrogant attitude, not only speaking disrespectfully and rudely to Deng Yu, but also speaking ill of Liu Xiu.

He thinks that Liu Xiu's proclamation as emperor in Hebei is a traitor to the Han Dynasty, and now he is still under the banner of the Han family, which is really shameless.

This Li Bao is also an ignorant lord, or arrogant, in other people's land, he picks and chooses, and in front of Deng Yu, he accuses Liu Xiu of not, saying that Liu Xiu's throne is not orthodox, how can Deng Yu bear it?

Deng Yu was furious, and immediately asked Li Bao to be captured, pulled out and chopped. Li Bao, the former minister, finally died on his own mouth. The consequence of Deng Yu's killing of Li Bao was that he directly forced Li Bao's younger brother, Li Yu.

Li Yu took over Li Bao's subordinates and suddenly attacked Deng Yu. Although Li Yu's rebellion was finally suppressed by Deng Yu's army, Geng Xin, the general under Deng Yu, was killed in battle, and his soldiers and horses were also killed and wounded.

This rebellion launched by Li Yu hurt Deng Yu's vitality. It didn't take long for the Red Mei Army, which was defeated by Kui Huan, to retreat to Chang'an, and when the troops approached the city, Deng Yu led his troops to be defeated, so they could only be forced to evacuate Chang'an.

The Red Eyebrow Army reoccupied Chang'an, but the problem of the Red Eyebrow Army was not resolved. Chang'an is an empty city, there is no one to ask for people, there is no food to eat, and there is no money to ask for money, and the hungry Red Eyebrow Army can't stay in Chang'an City at all.

To the west, there was Kui Huan, the Red Mei Army tried, and was beaten by Kui Huan's subordinates; To the south, there is Gongsun Shu, which is the overlord of Shu, and Shu is more precipitous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Red Eyebrow Army wants to go, and there is no other way out but to go east. However, to the east of Chang'an is Hongnong County, which is already under Liu Xiu's control, and the Red Eyebrow Army naturally locks its eyes on Hongnong. The Red Eyebrow Army has not yet raised troops to attack Hongnong, Hongnong

Taishou was assassinated first, and it is self-evident who did it.

At present, the situation in Hongnong County is that Taishou was assassinated and died, the dragons are leaderless, the Red Mei Army is menacing again, the army is pressing, and the situation in Hongnong County has become a mess.

When the battle report of Chang'an and Hongnong reached Luoyang, it was late at night, and Liu Xiu was asleep.

Fu Di took two battle reports and hurried to the West Palace where Liu Xiu was staying.

He walked to the door of the main hall, Zhang Kun heard the movement, and immediately greeted him, and saw that the person who came was Fu Di, Zhang Kun bowed and bowed, and asked cautiously: "Guangluxun entered the palace late at night, but is there something?" ”

Fu Di said in a low voice: "I have an urgent military situation, and I want to report it to Your Majesty." ”

Zhang Kun grinned secretly and whispered, "But Your Majesty has already fallen asleep." ”

Fu Di didn't say much, but said: "One hundred thousand is urgent." ”

"This ......" Zhang Kun hesitated again and again, but finally nodded and said, "Guangluxun is here for a while, and I will go in and report to Your Majesty." ”

"There is a laborer!"

"Guangluxun is polite."

Zhang Kun owed to Fu Di, turned around and walked to the main entrance of the main hall, he grinned secretly, it is really inappropriate to wake up Your Majesty at this time, but there is no way.

Fu Dian has been doing Guangluxun for a long time, and Zhang Kun also knows him a little bit, if he hadn't really encountered a hundred thousand urgent things, Fu Dian would never have entered the palace at this time to ask for His Majesty.

He took a deep breath, cautiously pushed open the door to the main hall, and stepped inside. He didn't dare to enter the inner chamber of the main hall directly, stood at the door of the inner chamber, bowed down, and whispered: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”

Liu Xiu, who was on the bed, opened her eyes, first looked at Yin Lihua beside her, and then slowly sat up. He tried his best to slow down his movements, not to wake Yin Lihua, and then got out of bed, put on a coat, and walked out of the inner room.

Seeing Liu Xiu come out, Zhang Kun hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, Guangluxun asked to see him, saying that there was an urgent military situation to report to His Majesty." ”

Liu Xiu's eyes flashed, and then he closed the door of the inner room with his hand. He asked, "Where is Fu Yin?" ”

"It's just outside the main hall."

"Let him in!"

"Yes! Your Majesty! ”

Zhang Kun agreed and walked out of the hall quickly. It didn't take long for Fu Di to walk in from outside. He came to Liu Xiu, knelt on the ground to salute, and said, "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Please get up." ”

After Fu Di got up, he immediately handed over the battle report from Chang'an and Hongnong to Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu took it and looked at it one by one, and the more he looked at him, the deeper his brows wrinkled.

Chang'an, which was fought hard by his side, is now lost again and taken away by the Red Eyebrow Army.

Now the Red Eyebrow Army has made up its mind to Hongnong, and they want to use troops directly against Hongnong. Once Hongnong is captured by the Red Eyebrow Army again, then the next step, will the Red Eyebrow Army take Luoyang directly?

After reading these two battle reports, Liu Xiu frowned, and was somewhat dissatisfied with Deng Yu's battle in Chang'an. But after thinking about it, he couldn't help but sigh lightly.

Deng Yu's expedition has been too long, and when he was not the emperor, Zhonghua led his troops to the west, and it has been fighting until now, and it is not easy to hold on.

He raised his head to Fu Di and said, "Let's go, let's go to the Qingliang Hall to discuss matters." ”

"Yes!"

Liu Xiu took Fu Di and went to Qingliang Palace.

After arriving at the Qingliang Palace, Liu Xiu asked Zhang Kun to prepare pen and ink and silk edicts. Liu Xiu sat on the couch and muttered to himself: "Zhonghua has led the troops to the west for nearly two years, and it is not easy to conquer cities and conquer cities all the way, and his achievements are impressive!" ”

Deng Yu was not good for the Red Eyebrow Army, Liu Xiu not only did not blame Deng Yu, but also helped him exonerate, whether it was a man or an emperor, Liu Xiu could be called magnanimous.

Fu Di glanced at Liu Xiu and said: "Your Majesty, now that Da Situ has led his troops to retreat to Gaoling, there is no food available in the army, and according to the rumor, the soldiers can only eat wild vegetables to survive. ”

Liu Xiu's eyes darkened, and he said faintly: "Zhonghua has always been sympathetic to his subordinates, and the soldiers below still want to eat wild vegetables, so why don't Zhonghua suffer more?" ”

Fu Di was silent. He was not in Gaoling, and he didn't know the specific situation on Deng Yu's side, but he understood that there was no food in the army, and he was on the verge of collapse.

At this time, Zhang Kun put the prepared pen and ink and silk edicts on the table one by one. Liu Xiu picked up the pen, pondered for a moment, and wrote an edict to Deng Yu.

In this edict, Liu Xiu's words are more humorous and witty, just like chatting with Deng Yu about family life.

He pointed out that the Red Mei Army could not stay in Chang'an for a long time, and the roads to the west, south, and north had been sealed, and the Red Mei Army had no other choice but to go east.

The Red Eyebrow army is sleepy and short of horses, short of money and food, and it is already the end of the strong crossbow, and he only needs to take the horse whip to whip it, and he can defeat the Red Eyebrow army.

Liu Xiu Luoli said so much, and the core meaning was one, let Deng Yu stop fighting and immediately lead his troops to Luoyang.

After writing this edict, Liu Xiu folded it, handed it to Fu Di, and said, "Send someone immediately and send it to Zhonghua." ”

"Wechen obeys!" Fu Yin took the edict and carefully put it into his arms.

Liu Xiu's fingers lightly tapped on the table, and said: "The assassination of Hongnong Taishou must have been done by the Red Eyebrow Army, if nothing else, it should have been done by the four Ah assassins under the command of Mo Yan." Fu Di bowed down and said, "Weichen thinks so too. After a pause, he said: "The Red Eyebrow Army assassinated Hongnong Taishou, and its purpose was to first leave Hongnong without a leader, and then conquer Hongnong in one fell swoop. When they take Hongnong, they can rest in Hongnong

Recuperate, when the Red Eyebrow soldiers are strong and strong, I'm afraid the spearhead will be directed at Luoyang! ”

Liu Xiu nodded thoughtfully and said, "It is imperative to send a capable minister to take over the position of Hongnong's Taishou and stabilize Hongnong's situation." ”

Fu Di nodded again and again, agreeing with Liu Xiu's words.

Liu Xiu asked, "Who does Guangluxun think is the most appropriate person to send?" ”

He bowed his head and fell into deep thought.

At present, the generals who can conquer and fight are all fighting outside, counting the ministers who stayed in Luoyang, Fu Di thought for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the hussar general is the most suitable." ”

Hussar general, that is Jingdan. Hearing Fu Di's recommendation of Jing Dan, Liu Xiu's heart also moved, and then he shook his head again and said, "It's not appropriate!" Recently, Sun Qing has been in poor health and is not suitable to go away from home! "What's more, the newly appointed Hongnong Taishou, after arriving in Hongnong, is going to lead the troops to fight against the main force of the Red Eyebrow Army, and the current physical condition of Jingdan does not seem to be very good.
