Chapter 266: Conspiracy Theories

"If you hold me hostage, you will only let the Da Liao Xiong soldiers endlessly pursue and kill you."

Although Xiao Yan'er said this, after all, her life is now in the hands of others, so she can only follow what An Yi said, holding the reins of the horse and driving the horse under her crotch to retreat step by step towards the Sushui River.

"Hurry up and let go of our Queen Mother!"

The sharp arrow in Generalissimo Han Guangde's hand had been drawn into an oval shape with the bowstring, staring at the comfort behind Xiao Yan'er on the horse, as if looking for a gap that would allow the cold light to immediately drill into his head.

Of course, the firearms battalion also put the projectiles on the chamber one by one under Jiang Yun's order, but An Yi and Xiao Yan'er became the best tranquilizer for both sides who were also full of * flavor in the middle of these two formations.

"It doesn't look like you're going to be what you say, at least I think they're going to be a rat trap when you're in my hands."

On the one hand, An Yi is also to avoid Han Guangde's sharp arrows, after all, he has seen the old general's arrow skills just now, so his face is almost tightly behind Xiao Yan'er's ears, and the gust of night wind blows, and he can also pick up the three thousand green silks that are as black as a waterfall and blow them on An Yi's face.

It's just that the current comfort is not in the mood to enjoy a different kind of romance before getting rid of the "soul flag" shining with cold light in front of him.

"Do you think that if you escape from Lanzhou, you can really be regarded as escaping? I'll tell you the truth, I'm afraid you won't even be able to enter Tongguan. ”

Hearing this, An Yi's ears really surprised him, but An Yi was not sure at this time whether what Xiao Yan'er said in her mouth was true or just to bluff him, and she was tempted to say without a trace on her face: "I know that Empress Xiao and our Lord Yongwang have always had dealings in private, but you don't have to use these words to deceive me, the dispute over the throne is just an internal matter in Great Xia, and the truth that if it is not my race, its heart must be different, presumably King Yong's heart is also very clear." ”

"Hehe~"

Xiao Yan'er shook her head gently, her face was full of frivolity, and she teased An Yi: "If Uncle An really thinks like this in his heart, then I don't think you need to go back to Daxia, instead of being raided by King Nayong, it is better to go back to Daliao with me and do a small errand in the inner courtyard to be happy." ”

Hearing like this, An Yi estimated that what Xiao Yan'er just said about Tongguan seemed to be true!

The closure of Tongguan, An Yi knew what it meant, not only meant that after their tens of thousands of troops had just escaped, they would fall into another desperate situation, but also that the entire northwest region of the Great Xia Dynasty would all fall under the control of the Liao.

But I'm afraid these have already been written in the script in the hands of that King Yong!

It was only now that An Yi was afraid that he suddenly understood, when Chongzheng was assassinated during his lifetime, An Yi also wrote to Jiang Ruyue, feeling that this matter must be a failure of King Yong, because Chongzheng did not have too much substantive criticism of King De because of his blame.

But now that I think about it, I am afraid that King De will be removed from the responsibility of supervising the country and the old governor will be removed from military power, which will have completely achieved the goal for King Yong.

So much so that later, according to King Yong's thoughts, he should have colluded with Xiao Yan'er to achieve the two purposes of controlling Anyi and attacking Lanzhou at the same time in the name of peace talks.

Needless to say, from the beginning to the present, it has been regarded as a party of the king by Chongzheng, including Sun Dezhang.

And the soldiers and horses in Lanzhou City are also not available to King Yong, among which the soldiers and horses of Shu must only be comfortable and the king of Shu is the head of Zhan, the king of Shu is a comfortable old man, and the king of Shu is a party of King De, so in the eyes of King Yong, the soldiers and horses of the territory are naturally the people and horses of King De,

Not to mention Shaanxi, Liao Ying, who has been commanded by Liao Ying, has been Sun Dezhang's old subordinate for many years, and can he still follow King Yong?

Therefore, the elimination of the soldiers and horses in Lanzhou City will definitely be in the interests of Xiao Yan'er and King Yong at the same time, so these two people can also build a stage together and sing a good show.

But An Yi thought about it carefully, his whole back was cold, he really didn't know how ruthless this King Yong could be, first designed to peel off a layer of skin of King De, and then Chongzheng's death was also inseparable from him, and then in order to continue to weaken King De's power, he also reached a consensus with other races,

If it weren't for An Yi's more vigilant presence in Han Lin, now this little 100,000 people and horses would have become a white bone ladder for King Yong to walk towards his bright dragon chair.

Thinking about it this way, presumably what King Yong gave Xiao Yan'er was the condition that the entire north of Tongguan should be ceded to Liao, so he would wait until Liu Biao crossed Tongguan with 200,000 southern troops, and then closed the gate deadly.

So looking at Sun Dezhang in this way, the evergreen tree of the court is still very prescient, and he entered Tongguan alone in front of Chongzheng's coffin, I am afraid that he knew at that time that with any soldiers and horses in Lanzhou, King Yong would not let him enter Tongguan, so he could only take care of it himself.

An Yi felt that he was afraid that as early as after their last Lanzhou defense was completed, they had all become pawns on his Yongwang chessboard.

The struggle of the royal family is probably even better than what the King of Shu told him before, compared to the swords and guns on the battlefield, this kind of secret fighting is simply cold in people's bone marrow,

Maybe in the end, only the blood flowing with the same taste as this cold can finally ascend to the golden and glorious hall, maybe this is the reason why the queen and the entire relatives behind her look at Yongwang Gao Kindness.

"Speaking of this now, Empress Xiao may have thought earlier, and while he is trapping others, who knows that he is not in someone else's trap?"

After saying this, a glimmer of light flashed in An Yi's eyes without a trace, and then quickly converged, and then asked Xiao Yan'er in a cold tone: "I'm afraid, what Empress Dowager Xiao thinks in her heart is not only what King Yong promised." ”

The corners of Xiao Yan'er's mouth picked slightly, and she said to him left and right: "What I Xiao Yan'er wants, I never look at other people's faces." ”

"Empress Dowager Xiao is also a superior herself, isn't the conditions I said in Han Lin at the beginning enough to attract you? Could it be that the two countries of Xia and Liao must be so reckless? ”

After An Yi said this, he heard Xiao Yan'er snort lightly from her nose with some disdain, "I, Xiao Yan'er, only talk to people who are qualified to negotiate conditions with me." ”

It sounds like it's quite embarrassing, but An Yi smiled disapprovingly: "Empress Dowager Xiao, it's not a bad thing to see reality, but my father has told me since I was a child that people who do big business know what it means to live in strange goods, and I hope that when Empress Dowager Xiao understands it in the future, she won't complain about paying too much tuition." ”

As An Yi spoke, he felt that the horse's hooves behind him suddenly sank down, thinking that he had stepped into the mud by the Sushui River.

"Okay, Empress Dowager Xiao, you can send it here. But ......"

An Yi leaned his face forward again, until the hot breath exhaled from his mouth could be unscrupulously teased at the root of Xiao Yan'er's ear, blowing Xiao Yan'er's few strands of green silk hanging behind them, all of which became like fairies.

From a distance, if you don't see the silver gun on Xiao Yan'er's waist, you will think that this is a little lover who has a private relationship with Yanyu.

"But I think it's too wronged to call Empress Dowager Xiao a beauty like you, in the future, I will call you Empress Dowager Yan'er."

"Ascend to the disciple! A two-faced villain! ”

Xiao Yan'er almost gritted her silver teeth, and threw these two words behind her fiercely, which had already been repeated twice,

However, I couldn't hear a reply anymore.

When he turned around again, An Yi had already been taken down by Jiang Shang, and he was picked up from the Sushui River with a small round shield.

Only a long silver spear was left, just pestle on the ground, and the tip of the spear was still gently resting on Xiao Yan'er's waist......

In the first month of the forty-first year of Chongzheng in Great Xia, Emperor Chongzheng died and Lanzhou fell.........

Wang Jing

In the past, Wang Jing, the capital of Great Xia, was prosperous and luxurious, and Wang Jing, the capital of Daxia, seemed to be pulled away from the joyful soul qi at once, and at this ten points of the night, there were no more * Yingyan who hooked the fence on the road, and there were no more literati and ink writers who were wandering and indulging in wine and poetry, and instead of a team of palace guards with bright armor and guns and knives in their hands, patrolling back and forth.

From the fine armor of these people, it can be seen that this is the Northern Army Guard in the Forbidden City of Wang Jing.

There are a total of two Gyeonggi garrisons in the north and south of the Great Xia Wangjingli, which are actually equivalent to the dragon cavalry in the hands of the Liao Guo Muer, and they all belong to the forbidden army that protects the capital.

However, there is still a difference between the two armies, the so-called Northern Army, which is only mainly responsible for the Gongwei Beijing Division, and is mostly a field army, with about 50,000 people.

It can be said that the Northern Army is the elite of the elite of the entire Great Xia Dynasty's official army, so even many of the flag officers and even generals in the Green Battalion, Guards, and Border Armies in various places in Great Xia, if they have the opportunity, they all think of this Northern Army, and some people even do not hesitate to demote their officials to a higher level, and they all yearn for this Northern Army to drill.

Because as long as you can become even the most ordinary member of this elite division, the salary of the white flowers all year round is definitely not comparable to a local garrison general in the northwest region.

If it is really a transparent person, mixed with an official and a half position in this northern army, then it is definitely not an ordinary military attache in the army, and that's it, if you can really get ahead in it, then all kinds of civil and military ministers, and even royal relatives, sometimes have to give you some silver taels, accompanied by two smiles,

After all, the people of the entire Great Xia Dynasty understood that whoever held the Northern Army in their hands could hold half of the Forbidden City.

So where is the other half of the Forbidden City?

Naturally, it was in the hands of the Southern Army.

Compared with the Northern Army, the Southern Army is responsible for guarding the tranquility of the Forbidden City, and in layman's terms, it is an army in the Imperial City.

Although it is said that there are only more than 1,000 people in the southern army, but the annual salary and silver have been purchased with soldiers and horses, so that the entire northern army of more than 50,000 people is dwarfed, and the selection of the source of the southern army is even more harsh.

It is estimated that today must be an unusual day, the general of the northern army at the south gate received an order from King Yong early, and went out of the city five miles away to meet the army that came from the northwest.

Who else could you be in the Tao? Naturally, it is Liu Biao who has an army of more than 200,000 in his hands.

"His Royal Highness King Yongwang has an order, the army is temporarily stationed outside the city, and General Liu is invited to bring His Royal Highness King Yong's things to meet him in the city."

Liu Biaogao sat on the horse, glanced lightly at the generals who were half-kneeling in front of his horse and greeted him, and then took out the roll of Chongzheng's will from his cuffs and held it high above his head.

"You're waiting here."

He turned his head and gave an order to the lieutenant general behind him, just holding the will, urging the horse's hooves, and walking towards the big city gate of Wang Jing's red lacquered wood and copper nails......
