Chapter 840: Lin Feng's chess pieces
At dusk, in the sky above Jinyang City, the blood-colored remnant sun was shrouded, and even the ground was a little red in the afterglow of the setting sun.
In the sweltering heat, even the birds in the treetops chirp and the cicadas chirp before they know it.
This kind of strange weather is rare, and when it does, it often brews a big storm.
In Jingzhao Mansion, many subordinates have begun to prepare for the coming of a storm and causing flooding in the mansion.
In the study, Jingzhao Yin Mujunchen walked back and forth, wandering, holding a pu fan in his hand, occasionally violently inciting, and when the cool breeze blew, he would tear off his shirt without hesitation.
In every move, I am full of irritability and restlessness!
At the beginning, when Lin Feng cleared Li Mengchang, because Li Qingyang died tragically on the street, he was innocently implicated, and was deposed to Yanjing City and appointed Jingzhaoyin of Jinyang City.
When he first entered Jinyang City, he quickly grasped the power of Jinyang City, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, Liu Xuanyuan and Yang Yue led the army to Jinyang City.
At a banquet, Liu Xuanyuan launched a military mutiny and detained everyone present, including him, who also became a prisoner in Liu Xuanyuan's hands.
After Liu Xuanyuan seized the military power of the Jin Kingdom, he completely controlled Jinyang City, and his influence spread all over Yandong, so he quickly bought people's hearts!
Under the coercion and temptation of the Liu father and son, he had to be loyal to the Liu father and son!
However, he knew very well that the rebellion of the Liu father and son in Jinyang City was no different from a moth fighting a fire.
At the beginning of Li Mengchang's rebellion, the situation was complicated, Li Mengchang was involved in the court, the situation was unclear, the emperor realized that there might be problems in the court, and did not suspect Liu Xuanyuan, but was on guard against the Jin State Gonglin Xiao.
He was sent to Jinyang City, and it can be said that he was ordered to be in danger.
Mingli was demoted and expelled from the court, but he was actually a pawn planted by the emperor in Jinyang City to prevent the rebellion of the Duke of Jin.
However, there was an accident, the Duke of Jin did not rebel, and Liu Xuanyuan, as the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, rebelled in Jinyang City.
As a pawn planted by the emperor in Jinyang City, he naturally pretended to betray Emperor Yan and served Liu Xuanyuan.
It's a pity that for a long time, Liu Xuanyuan trusted and guarded him, and blocked the city gate, so that he couldn't pass on the news of Liu Xuanyuan's rebellion in Jinyang City to Lin Feng at all.
However, Liu Xuanyuan rebelled without warning and purged the Lin Xiao army, which caused many Yan generals to secretly resent.
In order to protect his own safety and protect this cavalry team, he took advantage of his position and took advantage of the fact that the middle and lower-level officials in the army were not all persuaded by Liu Xuanyuan, so he secretly revealed his identity and recruited a group of middle- and lower-level generals to stabilize the army.
For this reason, he quietly encouraged the soldiers to mutiny in Jinyang City, striving to capture Liu Xuanyuan, but unfortunately, the failure of the two mutinies made Liu Xuanyuan more and more vigilant.
Fortunately, Yanqi mutinied, which caused Liu Xuanyuan's reputation among the people and the army to decline rapidly, but it also attracted Liu Xuanyuan's attention, and secretly instructed his father Liu Chengfeng to investigate secretly.
Fortunately, at this time, Xiong Kui led the Chu army to land from the East China Sea and attack Yandong, disrupting the plan of the Liu family and his son, and the investigation was stranded.
And tens of thousands of Yan troops, instigated on the way to the east, changed course and went to Yandong to find Jian Yuyan, Gu Lefeng and other generals, ready to fight against the Chu army.
In particular, the Eastern Expeditionary Army changed course, which not only seriously weakened Liu Xuanyuan's power, but also dealt a heavy blow to the prestige of the Liu clan in the people of Jinyang City and the army.
For a period of time, Liu Xuanyuan even communicated with him in person, wondering if it was a wrong decision to unite with the family gate valve.
At this time, the emperor drove his own expedition again, which made the situation of the Liu father and son worse and worse, but he had a plan to show his strength and implement the plan.
In the past few days, the people have demonstrated, stormed the family, Yan Qi slackened, morale dropped, and refused to fight, which is inextricably linked to him.
Otherwise, if it weren't for his instructions, no matter how bold the people were, they wouldn't dare to rush into the family.
When the Yan army was stationed outside the city, he secretly instructed the army to storm the city gate, although it failed, it also quieted Liu Xuanyuan.
However, the general guarding the city at the east gate passed the news to Xiong Kui as soon as he entered the city.
In order to eliminate and reduce the pressure of Emperor Yan and make contributions, he decided to assassinate Xiong Kui, but unfortunately, time was pressing, so he temporarily only cobbled together dozens of members of the Dark Arrow lurking in Jinyang City, and was ordered to disguise himself and assassinate Xiong Kui.
There is a big mistake in the temporary decision of this matter, and once it fails, the Liu family and his son will definitely find out, which is not only related to his life safety, but also affects the next deployment.
After all, he was going to launch a military mutiny in Jinyang City at night, directly open the gate of Jinyang City, and introduce the main force outside the city into the city to end this Yan domestic conflict.
At this point,
A cold sweat broke out on Mu Junchen's forehead, this battle was very risky to assassinate Xiong Kui in the city, not that he couldn't kill the other party, but it was possible to expose himself and completely tear his face with Liu Xuanyuan, and it was not clear whether it would bring danger to the emperor's plan.
The hot weather, the impatient mood, even if the fan in his hand was instigated back and forth, still made him sweat profusely, and he couldn't help but take off his coat.
At this time, a guard hurriedly walked into the study, panting and arching his hand: "My lord, General Liu sent his cronies to suppress it, our plan failed, and Xiong Wu escaped!" ”
"Bastard!" Mu Junchen's palm slammed on the desk, causing a huge shock on the desk, and he said angrily.
Without hesitation, he turned to the guards and said: "Act according to the plan, tell the cavalry in the city who are loyal to the emperor, part of the rescue of Jin Guohou, Li Kui, Ashina and other generals, part of the siege of the city, open the west gate, and invite the army into the city." ”
"Isn't it too dangerous to act in advance!" The guard asked.
Everyone had planned to attack Ximen at night, but Mu Junchen's words obviously didn't want to wait until midnight.
"If the killing of Xiong Kui fails, Liu Xuanyuan will definitely investigate it thoroughly, this matter should be sooner rather than later, otherwise everyone will definitely be exposed." Mu Junchen Road,
"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will go and prepare immediately!" The guard said.
Here, Xiong Kui was rescued, and he didn't even have the heart to listen to Liu Xuanyuan's explanation, so he hurriedly left Jinyang City in embarrassment.
returned to the camp, but he was grateful to Liu Xuanyuan for appearing and rescuing him from danger, but on the contrary, he seriously suspected Liu Xuanyuan's intentions.
After all, Liu Xuanyuan in Jinyang City controls Jinyang City, and without his orders, who would dare to turn into a peasant and attack him.
Moreover, his existence has always been a very threat to Liu Xuanyuan.
Therefore, Xiong Wu did not follow the established plan and jointly attacked Emperor Yan with the Liu family and his son, on the contrary, he left 30,000 Xuanjia soldiers to feint Jinyang City, and he personally moved to the west with the army, preparing to strike first.
In Jinyang Palace, Liu Xuanyuan was also confused in his heart, so dignified, how could anyone attack Xiong Wu in Jinyang City,
He understood that no matter what, Xiong Wu's attack this time would lead to a deterioration in his relationship with Xiong Wu, and his previous plan to meet and attack Emperor Yan was likely to run aground.
His worries soon became a reality, and soon, the general defending the city received news that the West Gate was attacked by the Xuanjia soldiers.
Hiss, Liu Xuanyuan learned, grabbed the ring head knife, and went straight to the outside of the palace.
