Chapter Ninety-Six: Major Event 8

The two divisions of Wu and Yue outside the city are indeed about to fight. From the exit of Jinghua's sentence 'The eldest son lives in the East Palace', the army Sima Zigu rode back to the Yue Division, leaving only the main general Yang Lu with short soldiers to wait for the prince Xiong Jing to appear under the city. As soon as Zigu returned to the camp, the news of the equipment of the Wu division spread throughout the army, and then the whole column of the Yue division changed, the previous military formation was facing Yingdu, and now it is facing the Wu division.

Yue Shi suddenly changed his formation in front of everyone, and Wu Shi's side immediately made a big uproar - Bai Fu Cha Gou Jian, the two countries are feuds, although now all under the rule of Chu, but the hatred is not so easy to dissolve, until the end of the Qin Dynasty, Wu Shen's son Wu Qi and Gou Jian's descendants Wu Zhu and others formed an alliance against Qin, and the grievances of the ancestors were ended. At this time, the Yue Shi and Ge halberds faced each other, and the Wu people did not wait for the command of the main general, and also changed formations in a hurry. 30,000 against 20,000, the double distance is less than 100 steps, the bow is full of crossbows on the machine, and the fight is about to start.

"Zigu, what do you want?!" There were people in the Wu Division's army array, and it was Zhou Wen who rushed back urgently.

"I don't want to." Zi lived alone behind the Yueshi army, "I'm just worried that you and I will be deceived by Li Yuan." ”

"How did Li Yuan lie to you?" Zhou Wen argued loudly. "Is Ling Yin's death fake? Can the prince be fake? ”

"Zhou Wen, you don't need to say much, everything will wait for the eldest son to appear." Zigu didn't want to have a verbal dispute with Zhou Wen, but Mingjin ordered Yue Shi to slowly retreat. The distance between the two divisions was no more than a hundred paces, and it would be a tragedy if the archer accidentally released an arrow.

"Zixu, you must not believe the words of the thief Jinghua!" Almost at the same time, Huang Yong under the city bitterly warned Yang Xu. He wanted to get closer, but the short-handed soldiers stopped him.

"Zixu, the eldest son has been killed by Jinghua, you won't be able to see the eldest son." Huang Yong still shouted.

"Whether it's a one-sided statement or not, we'll know in a moment." Huang Yong was excited, but Yang Xu seemed calm.

Yang Lu is also a branch of the royal family, he is after killing Xiong Yang, the son of a merchant who ascended the throne of King Chu Cheng (the younger brother of the king of Chuzhuang). The father-killing was widely known for leaving a bear's paw and being unfamiliar with the word. Xiong Yang was deeply ashamed of this, so he left the ancestral motto of loyalty and not chaos.

Li Yuan transferred troops without Fu Jie, Wu Shi was mostly the soldiers of Yin Huang Xie's fiefdom, and Huang Xie wanted to establish a fierce prince before, these clues were connected, so that Yang Lu faintly came to such a conclusion: Huang Xie is not dead, he and Li Yuan and others are so tossed in order to break through the Yingdu where the army is empty, so as to kill the eldest son and establish Xiong as the king. If he helped Li Yuan, Huang Yong and others to attack the city, it would be a big mistake for the ages.

For more than 800 years, the vast majority of the Gong clan were extremely loyal, which was due to the fact that the power of the Gong clan was not as strong as that of the Central Plains of the Three Jin Dynasty, and the reason that the Gong clan itself was cohesive. In the political history of the Chu State, King Wu of Chu is one node, and King Zhuang of Chu is another node. The former regarded himself as a barbarian, with Fengzi as the king, and at the same time imitated the Zhou Dynasty while fighting against the Zhou Dynasty, so roughly constructed the political machine of the Chu State. Most of the official names of the Chu State are Yin, and they learn from Zhou Tianzi rather than the vassal states;

However, the latter exhausted the barbarian spirit of the Chu State, comprehensively studied the Central Plains countries from daily life to the military and political system, and finally became a hegemon. Spring and Autumn Batongbo, the so-called Uncle Ji Zhong, Uncle is the meaning of the eldest son. King Chuzhuang's hegemony is tantamount to political recognition of Zhou Tianzi's status as the co-ruler of the world, and he is his eldest son.

Ruo Ao's rebellion was not so much a seizure of power as a battle of lines: the princes represented by the Ruo Ao clan hoped that the Chu State would maintain its traditions since the founding of the country, and that the monarch would respect the growing interests of the major clans, rather than the Central Plains state, where the interests of the princes were more and more concentrated in the hands of the monarch; The king of Chu Zhuang hoped that the major princes could fully support him, and the shame of the battle of Chengpu, the king of Chu Cheng, made the state of Chu a recognized overlord in the world.

The end of the battle of the route ended with the victory of King Zhuang of Chu and the fact that the State of Chu became the overlord of the world, but at the same time that the State of Chu was hegemonic abroad, the domestic princes were becoming more and more centrifuged, even if King Zhuang frequently transferred the big county and county Yin, the fate of his cronies would not help, and the final result was that the subsequent King of Chu divided a large number of descendants, so as to promote the situation that the new princes represented by the feudal monarch restricted the old clan represented by the county Yin.

Xiong Yang, the ancestor of Yanglu, was the first batch of feudal monarchs, although the fief has been lost, he is still the position of the feudal monarch: completely loyal to the king of Chu. It's just that what he didn't expect was that the king of Chu, who had not yet ascended the throne, was ill-fated and was in the process of dying at this time.

"Your Highness, the last general is willing to lead his division to the north gate with His Highness." Xiong Jing had already gotten into the four-wheeled carriage, fifteen by palace armor and ten by one, and four hundred and fifty people (three sword and shield arrays) by one thousand sanitation, but Deng Sui was still not at ease.

Coupled with the swordsmen around him, there were already 1,500 people escorting him out of the palace, Xiong Jing was not worried about his safety, he said politely: "You are the guard of the royal city, how can you leave the city?" I'll wait until I get back. ”

"Your Highness, please go with the car." Day after night, Zhao Xiao's anger towards Huang Xie was still dissipating, and he wanted to scold Huang Xie for having no king and no father at the head of the city.

"Your Highness, please also go with the car." How can the scolding thing be less than Zhen Yin Zimo, he also has to go.

"Your Highness, the minister is also willing to go." Shen Yinyu also said that he also wanted to join in the excitement, watching the rebels collapse and rebel to give the head.

"And the minister," the righteous and awe-inspiring Zuo Yin Meng is a bird. When the prince was fighting, he praised himself as a neutral, and now Huang Xie is reversed, whether he is fair or self-purifying, he has to see Huang Xie and persuade him to bow down and ask for surrender.

"Your Highness...... "Seeing that the important ministers implored to go with the car, the other doctors and feudal lords also wanted to follow. It's just that although the four-wheeled carriage built for the king is wide, it can't fit too many people, and the car by himself is an ox cart, so it can't keep up with the speed of the four-wheeled carriage and the palace armor, and as a nobleman, you can't walk.

"Please wait in peace of mind, I am afraid that the road will be dangerous." Xiong Jing said to these people, only let Zhao Huang accompany him, and even the teacher Song Yu let him stay.

With Ling Yangyang, the gate of the royal city was wide open, and under the escort of 1,500 soldiers, Xiong Jing slowly went to the north of the city. Watching him go, someone in the crowd let out a sigh.

*

"Report ——! The eldest son is out of the palace. Ears and eyes who were closely following the movements of the palace reported. At this time, Jinghua was no longer in the North Gate Tower, and after saying goodbye, he moved to the empty Yingdu City, where there were still many merchants hoarding goods for sale, but there were no Chinese people who were shoulder to shoulder.

"How many armor soldiers are there?" Jing Huatie, who knew that success or failure was in this blow, blushed and completely forgot that he was killing the king.

"Fifteen hundred." The eyes and ears observe in great detail. "A thousand men have spears, and the rest have swords and shields. It is divided into five columns, about two hundred and forty paces long. The spear at both ends, the sword and shield in the middle, the four-wheeled vehicle of the eldest son is in the center, and the iron armor is attached to it, which is protected by the shield and sword and short soldiers. ”

"Razor spear? Sword and shield? "Jing Hua and Shen Yong have heard of the rumors that the crown prince is practicing the formation in Yuyuan, but Wu Shen doesn't know much about it, but he is a big Sima and knows a lot about military affairs." The spear is two feet and four feet long, and it is used by the chariot soldiers, why ......"

"There is a rumor in the palace: the eldest son is arranging a new formation, day and night, and outsiders are not allowed to see it." Shen Yong's news was the most intelligent, "Is Doctor Wu worried that your more than 1,000 dead soldiers will not be able to defeat the newly trained military formation of the eldest son?" ”

"There are more people against fewer people, and we have a crossbow, how can we not be defeated?" The ambush plan was formulated by Jing Hua and was the most important thing in everything. Wu Shen knew the detailed plan, and he didn't think that Xiong Jing would be spared this time, he was just curious about the weapons used by the palace armor. The principle of the use of troops in the army is to match the long and the short, and the foot soldiers use the spear, which is not found in the nations. The only example of winning with a spear is Ran Qiu of the Lu State hundreds of years ago, he led 300 soldiers to raise a spear to break the Qi division, but the Qi division did not have time to release the arrow at that time, so it was drummed down by the Lu people.

"After the eldest son, the dead soldiers all went out of the city through the east gate, and when they were captured, they were said to have been ordered by Huang Yong to rebel against the eldest son." Jing Hua was not worried about the success of the matter, but he was worried that Wu Shen's people were not strict - Fan Zeng's plan was not good, and he threw all the pots to the Huang family.

"They are all barbarians in the mountains, and they don't know anything else except fighting." Wu Shen was not worried, he asked rhetorically, "How are your Wang Shi soldiers who are fighting?" If they leak it......"

"The king prepares for Yin, and the king will be my cronies in Dongting County, and most of the apprentices are Miao people, even if there are Chu people, they are also a minority. After the eldest son, the prince will also be unexpected, he will be the new monarch on the throne, how dare he reveal anything? "In the whole plan, Jing Hua is the most risky, but he has already repaid his mortal heart.

"Tell the order." He glanced at Wu Shen.

"Yes. Herald. Wu Shen nodded heavily, a broken hair Yue people around him jumped away, outside the big market, more than a thousand Yue people were on standby, and they had been in Yingdu for a long time, they couldn't wait for a long time; And Jinghua's heralds also rushed to the south of the mansion, where, under the leadership of the Miao general Lifeng, the king Chen Ge, who had been kneeling for a long time, was waiting for the battle, and they wanted to destroy the enemies of the king of Chu, so that they could be rewarded by the people of Chu.
