When it came to the sound of the drums, Li Jing couldn't care about looking for it anymore, and ran in the direction of the horse tent with Han Shiyu, no matter how loud Zhang Erniu shouted, they couldn't hear it.

When Li Jing and Han Shiyu arrived at the camp, almost all the important generals of the Sui army in Xinlin had arrived, Han Baohu and Gao Ying sat under the prince on the left and right, and when they saw the two coming in, Han Baohu glared at the two of them, obviously dissatisfied with their arrival now, and the prince nodded to the two of them with a smile.

The smallest official position in this camp is also a town general above the sixth grade, and the tent has been crowded with no less than forty or fifty people, Li Jing and Han Baohu were awarded the position of a thousand cattle to prepare themselves, although they are also six products, but they are fictitious, and they are not qualified to enter the big tent meeting, but Yang Yong has a concession to the two, and they can participate.

The two were in a daze, and suddenly saw a person waving to them, and looked at it, it was Gao Dehong, who was similar to their status, Gao Dehong was the son of Gao Gong, and he only got a thousand cattle to prepare, the two were overjoyed, and hurriedly walked to Gao Dehong's side and stood with him.

Gao Dehong asked in a low voice: "It's already been two drums, why are you here?" ”

In the barracks, if you don't arrive after the three-way drum sounds, you will be punished according to discipline, and you need to play ten boards to receive the law, Li Jing has no explanation, and shook his head slightly, Gao Dehong is inconvenient to ask again, so he has to keep his mouth shut.

Less than a cup of tea later, the drumming outside suddenly stopped, and the three-way drum was finished. During the period, people arrived one after another, and sixty or seventy people had been squeezed out of the entire tent, Yang Yong glanced at the tent, and the senior generals in the army had arrived, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, General He Ruo sent an envoy to report just now that our army has broken through the defense line of the Chen army. Chen's army was routed on all fronts. Our army won a great victory in the northern city. ”

News in the barracks is always fast-moving. Everyone on the way to the scene when they heard the drums, they already knew why the prince had summoned everyone, but the news was confirmed by the prince himself, and everyone was still excited.

Beicheng won so quickly. Inevitably, some people muttered in their hearts, after all, in yesterday's battle report, Chen Jun's front was still intact, but since the prince confirmed it himself, no one doubted it.

In fact, it was still a little early to say that the victory was a little early, and the Chen army at the north gate did not stop resisting because of the collapse of the front, but burst out with the last strength under the leadership of several generals. It's just that the difference in strength between the two sides is too great. It is not just courage to change the result, and He Ruobi is already disdainful of Chen Jun's resistance. The messenger who sent Yang Yong in advance to win the victory, but Yang Yong was not too clear about the specific situation.

The Sui army has been stationed in Xinlin for more than 20 days, and there has been no siege before, and the reinforcements of the Chen army are not in a good mood, every day they hear the war drums faintly coming from the north city, both the officers and soldiers are restless, and they want to attack Jiankang immediately, just to cooperate with the battle of the north city, they have to be patient for the time being, and now that the north city has been victorious, the south city no longer needs to scruple.

At that moment, several generals stood up: "Prince Yu, Weichen requests to send troops to attack Jiankang immediately." ”

"Prince, Weichen also asks to send troops immediately."

"Yes, the great merit of annihilating the Chen army has been given to the north, and the first merit of attacking Jiankang can no longer be obtained."

……

When he heard that the great achievement of annihilating the Chen army allowed He Ruobi to go, Han Baohu's face couldn't help but **, the two of them were entrusted by the emperor at the same time, and they had been preparing for five or six years for this battle against Chen, and now he was already behind He Ruobi in terms of merit, and he must not let He Ruobi take the lead in attacking the city, otherwise he would be suppressed in the court in the future.

If the two sides compete fairly, Han Baohu has nothing to say if he loses, but He Ruobi actually attacked three days in advance in order to grab the merit, and almost caused the rest of the soldiers and horses to expose the target in advance, of course Han Baohu is not convinced, if you don't advance it, maybe the person who came to Jiankang's feet first is me, and the decisive battle with Chen Jun is also in the south, so there is nothing to do with you He Ruobi.

Thinking of this, Han Baohu couldn't sit still, got up and said to Yang Yong: "Prince, the opportunity must not be lost, it is better to take advantage of the new defeat of Chen Jun's courage to attack the city immediately, and Weichen is willing to take the lead." ”

"Very good, all of you Aiqing are good generals of the Great Sui." Seeing that everyone was high-spirited, Yang Yong was quite happy in his heart, but there was almost no problem in capturing Jiankang, Yang Yong was worried that the military discipline would be sloppy after entering the city, if the Sui army burned and looted in Jiankang City, it would be bad, Yang Yong's words couldn't help but turn around: "It's just that you still remember the emperor's edict on Chen?" ”

Everyone was puzzled, now it has reached the critical moment of cutting down Chen, Chen Guo is not even going to protect the capital, why is the prince trying to kill Chen's edict, only Gao Ying smiled, obviously knowing what Yang Yong was going to say.

"Prince, we are all going to defeat the Chen State, what are we going to do with the edict of Chen?" A military general shouted.

"Yes, the crown prince, as long as the Chen State is defeated, the emperor will naturally be happy." Many generals also chimed in.

Many of these generals are illiterate, although each of them has heard the content of the edict more than once, but now they have almost forgotten it, at this moment they all want to enter Jiankang City immediately, how can they want to delay time for such a trivial matter.

Yang Yong shook his head slightly, knowing that most of these generals had already thrown the edict into his head, and shouted to the back: "Li Jing, you come and recite it for everyone." ”

"Yes." Li Jing stood up, shook his head and said, "Uncle Chen's palm is in the palm of his hand, and he wants to ...... Kill the outspoken guest, destroy the house of innocence. Deceive the heavens and create evil, sacrifice ghosts and ask for mercy...... The overthrow of the heavens is nothing but my ministers. Every time I listen to it, I feel sad. Recently, autumn has begun, and I want to hang people...... With the spirit of heaven and the power of surveying, you can go out to receive the law, and you can be punished at the right time

Yang Yong waved his hand at Li Jing with a smile, signaled Li Jing to return to his position, and said: "Very good, everyone knows what the emperor said: the sky is overthrown, and it is nothing more than a minister." Every time I listen to it, I feel sad; What do these two sentences mean? ”

Someone nodded his head at the ear. Some people scratched their heads, trying to make them understand the meaning of every sentence in the edict, which really made this group of big bosses embarrassed, and some people who didn't understand couldn't help whispering.

"Hey, you know what the prince means."

The person who was asked sweated nervously: "Probably, it probably means that everyone in the world is the emperor's courtier......"

Looking at the chaotic camp, Yang Yong turned to Gao Ying and said, "Gao Aiqing, let's explain." ”

"Wechen obeys." Gao Ying got up. He coughed several times. The camp was quiet again: "Everyone. What the emperor said is still all the people in the world, are the emperor's people, every time he hears that the people of the south are suffering from Chen Shubao's absurd and unscrupulous rule, the emperor will be sad, this time our army sent troops, still to save the people in the south. ”

After speaking, Gao Ying bowed to Yang Yong and retreated. Yang Yong glanced around the tent, and his voice suddenly became louder: "Who else hasn't understood?" ”

"The Admiral understands." Everyone hurriedly expressed their attitude.

"Well, the palace will issue an order to attack Jiankang here, and everyone will obey the order."

"The last will obey."

"One: Do not trespass on people's houses, if there is a violation, ten military sticks at a time, thirty military sticks twice, and if there are three criminal offenses. Chop! 2. Do not loot property without permission. If there is a violation, twenty military sticks, and the amount is huge. Chop! Three: No ** women, violators fifty military sticks, if it is a continuous violator, beheaded! Four: Do not kill good and risky merit, violators, behead! Five: Do not kill prisoners without permission, violators, beheaded! ”

The military orders of the Sui army are far more than these in peacetime, but too many make the sergeants at a loss, and it is undoubtedly impossible for the sergeants to abide by every military order, and it is undoubtedly impossible for the sergeants to abide by every military order, so that the sergeants can be re-promulgated again, that is, after the sergeants enter Jiankang, they can keep these military orders in mind, so that Jiankang City will not be destroyed, and the people will not suffer from military disasters.

"Prince, what if an enemy escapes into a house?" One general objected.

Yang Yong glanced at the people in the tent with blazing eyes, many of them had uncertain looks on their faces, obviously they also had opinions on this article, Yang Yong naturally knew that he must not indulge, otherwise once the sergeant was allowed to enter the house casually, the city would inevitably be in chaos, and said coldly: "As long as you lay down your arms, even if there is an enemy entering the house, the sergeant is not allowed to enter, if you are forced to enter, you must report to the officer above the town general, and get permission to enter, otherwise it will be regarded as a violation of the military order, if there is a town general, enter the house without permission, It is also a violation of military orders. ”

"Yes, the Admiral understands." The questioning general hurriedly retreated.

"Do you have any questions?"

Seeing that the previous general touched a soft nail, the prince deliberately took out the emperor's edict to say something, and everyone knew it in their hearts, these military orders The prince was obviously prepared, and they all looked at their noses and noses, and their noses looked at their hearts, and no one answered.

"Okay, since there is no problem, pass on the order of the palace, immediately allocate the camp and attack Jiankang!"

"Obey!" Everyone's faces became excited, and after a while, the entire military camp was noisy, and the whole army began to move.

Gao Ying was left behind by Yang Yong, and at this moment Yang Yong was staring at Gao Ying: "Gao Aiqing, there are nearly 200,000 troops in Beicheng, and their military discipline will trouble Gao Aiqing to supervise." ”

"Your Highness, rest assured, if anyone violates military discipline, the minister should ask for punishment." Gao Ying said solemnly.

Just when Yang Yong was serious about military discipline and was preparing to attack Jiankang, Ren Zhong had already arrived at the palace, seeing Ren Zhong coming, Shi Wenqing thought that Ren Zhong was secretly leading troops into the city, he was startled, and he didn't dare to stop him, so he let Ren Zhong go in. ”

As soon as Ren Zhong told the news of the failure of Beicheng, Chen Shubao was shocked, grabbed Ren Zhong's hand and cried: "Aiqing, how is this good?" ”

Ren Zhong shook his head: "Your Majesty, the ministers are powerless. ”

Hearing Ren Zhong say this, Chen Shubao was even more surprised: "Aiqing, do you want to ignore me, to this day, only Aiqing can resist the enemy in the capital, I treat Aiqing well on weekdays, you can't see death without helping." ”

Zhang Guifei and Kong Guiren were also frightened by the side, although Zhang Guifei usually has a lot of opinions, but for the military, it is a coincidence, and she can't put forward any suggestions, so she can only keep begging Ren Zhong to find a way

Ren Zhong sighed with emotion, in the past, the emperor would only think of them when he used them, but he didn't expect that today he would beg to himself in a low voice, he sighed: "Your Majesty, the northern city was defeated, most of the army in the capital was lost, and now the entire capital is only 20,000 people, the Sui army is ten times that of our army, and even if the minister has three heads and six arms, he is powerless." ”

Hearing that Ren Zhong was worried that there was no army, Chen Shubao seemed to grasp a straw, and hurriedly said: "Yes, there is still an army in the capital, I think I have countless gods and Buddhas in Dachen, and there are no less than hundreds of Kangguang temples to be built, as long as they are organized, they can get tens of thousands of troops, these monks and Taoists are blessed by gods and Buddhas, and with them, they will definitely be able to hold the capital." ”

The emperor actually pinned his hopes on the monks and Taoist priests, and Ren Zhong suddenly cried and laughed: "Your Majesty, although there are many Buddhist disciples, they usually only chant scriptures and chant Buddha, how can they defend the city?" ”

Chen Shubao blinked: "Aiqing, wait, I still have a way." ”

After speaking, Chen Shubao turned to several chamberlains and ordered a few sounds, several chamberlains hurriedly walked into the back hall, and after a while put out two sacks, Chen Shubao untied the sack with his own hands, only to see that it was shiny inside, all gold, he pointed to two pockets: "These are two bags of gold, for Aiqing to recruit soldiers, hundreds of thousands of people in the city, Aiqing can use it to raise tens of thousands of soldiers, and fight to the death with the Sui army." ”

Ren Zhong was speechless, he knew that the emperor in front of him was no different from an idiot, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, although there must be brave men under the heavy reward, but it is too late, now drive the people into soldiers, these people have not been trained, they will only die in vain." ”

Chen Shubao suddenly ran out of ways to think of it, and he was so anxious that he scratched his tongue, Ren Zhong couldn't see it, and suggested: "Your Majesty, now Jiankang will definitely not be able to hold it, only urgently prepare ships and go up the river, as long as the emperor and the upstream army of our army converge, it will be safe." ”

"Yes, yes." Chen Shubao finally saw a glimmer of hope, and pointed to the two bags of gold: "This gold is considered to be my reward to Aiqing, Aiqing hurry up and prepare, I am here to wait for good news." ”
