Chapter 250: (North and South)

"100,000 urgent?" Cheng Wenzhe thought he had heard it wrong: "Lone has been guarding here for many years, and there has never been a hundred thousand urgent things to pass to Lone, I don't know what the matter is?" ”

Jin Yiwei looked around, deliberately embarrassed, Cheng Wenzhe smiled when he saw this: "You don't have to worry, all the officials present are lonely officials, and they are all qualified to listen to the orders of the imperial court, let's talk..."

"King Qiyu, 100,000 urgent, the king of Dongping and the king of Pingyi rebelled with the support of Chengtai and other generals, led the army to counterattack Dezhou City, Chengchang and Liang Chao's messengers rushed back to Jinan to report the news, the emperor has sent troops to Dezhou to suppress, but in Lingxian was besieged by the army of the king of Pingyi, Dezhou was in an emergency, and the emperor ordered the king to lead the army back to Jinan Qinwang..."

'Wow...' The hall suddenly exploded, they never imagined that the gentle Cheng Qingzhi would join the general Cheng Ping to rebel, this is simply unimaginable.

After hearing this, Cheng Wenzhe immediately stood up and ran off the high platform, grabbed Jinyiwei's clothes and said, "Is this true? ”

"It's true, there is an emperor's holy purpose here...", he said and took out a yellow silk silk from the burden on his back, opened it and read: "The edict of the Great Qi Emperor said that the king of Changyang should immediately lead the army back to the king of Jingqin, and he will be here..."

Cheng Wenzhe rushed to his head with enthusiasm, grabbed the edict, looked at it carefully, and immediately knelt down after making sure that it was correct: "The son of the minister has the decree..."

There is a reason why Cheng Wenzhe is so excited, after the crown prince incident, although he was crowned king, he was assigned to the remote place of Changyang County, Changyang, which is clearly marked on Shangguan Yin Feng's map of the world's territory. Weihai', that's right, it's Weihai, close to the sea, in that era it was a poor place that didn't grow hair, he was relegated to this, although he was the prince, but there was no freedom, there was Laiyang County on the way to Changyang, under the rule of Changyang County, Fan Wencheng was the supervisor of Changyang County, to put it bluntly, it was Cheng Gongwu sent to monitor his own military, as long as he had a change, he would be surrounded and suppressed by the army, and now there is an emperor's edict to let himself bring the army into King Jingqin, which can be described as justifiable.

Seeing this, Jin Yiwei bowed his head and said mysteriously to Cheng Wenzhe: "King, the emperor still has a secret decree, Fan Wencheng, the supervisor of Laiyang, is the person of the king of Pingyi, and now Fan Wencheng has not done it, which proves that he has not received the news, the emperor has an order, ordering the prince to kill Fan Wencheng, and return to Beijing to hand it over to the emperor..."

Cheng Wenzhe had already stood up, his face was full of spirit, his long-cherished wish for many years could finally be realized, as long as he returned to Jinan this time to eliminate his half-brothers with other armies, then his strength in the Qi State was absolute, and it was very simple to want to be the emperor himself: "By the way, where is the fourth brother Cheng Xizhao?" ”

"King Qiyu, the army of King Jiyang was trapped in Qingyun County on the way to the north to encircle and suppress, and it is precisely because of this that the emperor urgently ordered the king to send troops back to Beijing..."

"Okay..."Cheng Wenzhe has long seen that Fan Wencheng's dog legs are not pleasing to the eye, usually fine, but now that he has an edict, go and kill him first: "You go back and tell your father first, just say that Gu will return to Beijing soon, let him insist, you be careful all the way, don't be caught by the rebels." ”

"Little leader..."Jin Yiwei walked out of the hall when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly when he left, and no one noticed it...

Seeing off the messenger, Cheng Wenzhe walked back to the high platform and said to the generals standing on his right: "Lone is demoted here, you can't wait, if today's big opportunity is in front of you, after eliminating the rebels, Lone is likely to be the emperor, are you willing to be loyal to Lone?" ”

"I'm waiting to swear allegiance to the king...", the generals knelt down and bowed in unison.

Then Cheng Wenzhe turned his head to look at the civil official on the left and said, "What about you?" ”

"We will do our best to assist the king..."

"Okay..."Cheng Wenzhe stood up and laughed: "God-given opportunity, immediately send an order, gather all the soldiers, prepare supplies, and we will set off..."

"The king," a civilian official said, "the anti-thief Fan Wencheng has 50,000 troops in his hands, and we only have 20,000 troops, how can we defeat them?" ”

Cheng Wenzhe said with a smile: "Lone immediately took a few people to Laiyang to summon Fan Wencheng, and then killed him, those people were originally my Qi army, Lone took out the edict again, who would dare not obey?" ”

"The king is wise..."

Things are as Cheng Wenzhe said, after he entered Laiyang with a small number of people, the superintendent Fan Wencheng did not have any suspicions, but respectfully greeted Cheng Wenzhe, the king of Changyang, just when he leaned over to salute Cheng Wenzhe, he was cut off by the people next to Cheng Wenzhe, and when the people next to him were about to do it, Cheng Wenzhe took out the edict, read it out in public, and then dictated Cheng Gongwu's secret order, of course, it was Fan Wencheng's words of rebellion, these words spoke, and those sergeants under him naturally had no meaning, They all expressed their allegiance to Cheng Wenzhe, because they all knew that now was a good opportunity to become famous.

Cheng Wenzhe immediately reorganized the army, in addition to the 50,000 horses in Laiyang, the 20,000 horses in Changyang, and more than 10,000 private soldiers from his palace, adding up to 80,000 people, after the whole army packed up the food, began to march towards Jinan...

The messenger first dictated that Cheng Wenzhe united with Chengping to rebel, and Cheng Chang and others were all supporting forces, and then said that Cheng Xizhao's army was trapped in Qingyun County, and asked him to send troops to rescue, and then took out Cheng Gongwu's edict and read: "The edict of the Great Qi Emperor said, order Cheng Qingzhi to immediately lead his troops back to help, kill the rebels, and there must be no mistakes..." But none of those who collaborate in the rebellion must be left behind..."

These words are very in line with Cheng Gongwu's character, Cheng Qingzhi has been by Cheng Gongwu's side for a long time, so he is naturally clear, but there is one point, Cheng Qingzhi does not have the ambition of Cheng Wenzhe, nor is he stupid, so he asked: "Where is the strength of the two defense envoys in the north and south, and 100,000 people can't stop Cheng Wenzhe's army?" ”

Jin Yiwei replied: "King Qiyu, the soldiers and horses in the hands of the two defense envoys in the north and south were taken away by Cheng Pingzhong in the name of supporting the Dezhou battlefield, but they turned around and surrounded the army of the King of Jiyang who went to support in Dezhou, and divided the army of the King of Jiyang in Lingxian and Qingyun County. ”

"What about the Forbidden Army? Isn't there still 50,000 people in Nanying Chen Zhao's hands? Cheng Qingzhi then asked.

"Back to the king, the defense of Jinan is now under the command of General Chen, and there are only 60,000 soldiers and horses in Jinan now, so the emperor ordered the king to quickly return to help and kill the rebels."

Cheng Qingzhi nodded after hearing this, he didn't even know that this was completely Shangguan Yin Feng's strategy, and he was worried about Cheng Gongwu's safety, he thought that it was more than enough to sweep Hebei with his own strength, so after discussing with Cheng Tai, he asked Cheng Tai to lead 30,000 troops to garrison Cangzhou Nanpi, and he personally led 30,000 cavalry and 20,000 foot soldiers to rush back to Texas to find out.

Although he was worried, Cheng Qingzhi really couldn't believe that his third brother would rebel, even if it was the previous crown prince incident, it couldn't dispel the doubts in his heart...
