Chapter 187: Chang'an Alert

Li Guan, as the middle general of the left and right prison guards from the fourth grade, can be regarded as a high authority, although he has not been on the battlefield, but because he is from the royal family, he is also at home in this position, especially after being in charge of this Dongcheng, just the benefits of filial piety to the gods of wealth every month are enough for him to spend all his time drinking.

As a lieutenant general, Li Guan does not need to be on duty outside the city gate every day, and it is okay to come to inspect it occasionally, but today, Li Guan is standing at the head of the city with full clothes and armor, his eyes are wide, looking at everyone who passes by below, for fear that the chaos will disturb many nobles standing beside him.

At this time, on the tower of Yanxing Gate City, not only Wu Zetian and others stood on it, but also many people came slowly, the heads of major families, those well-informed courtiers above the court, only the prime minister level, and three people came, at this time, these people were all clustered around Wu Zetian, asking with doubts on their faces, but unfortunately, Wu Zetian couldn't say why for these people's inquiries, and could only look at Duan Jian who had been looking into the distance viciously.

"Duan Aiqing, just now you said that the people have not yet arrived, and now that all of you Aiqing have come, I don't know when your so-called good show will start." In front of everyone, even if Wu Zetian was angry, he forcibly suppressed and said.

"Back to Niangniang, it's about to start, just wait a while, I'm afraid the movement will be bigger, and please prepare Niangniang and your seniors, ah....here, Niangniang, look, they're coming." Hearing Wu Zetian's words, Duan Jian replied.

With Duan Jian's exclamation, everyone standing at the head of the city clearly saw that not far away, a cloud of smoke and dust was billowing out, as if there were thousands of horses galloping, covering the sky and the sun.

"Ah, no, enemy attack, enemy attack, hurry up...... Come quickly, close the gates, and all the soldiers are ready for battle. In Duan Jian's opinion, it is a very happy thing, put it on Li Guan, a Zhonglang general who has not been on the battlefield, but it is an extremely terrible thing, although Li Guan has not been on the battlefield, but he has also known some of the situation on the battlefield from the mouth of his grandfather, who is a general, and the situation in front of him that covers the sky and the sun and is dusty, there is only one situation that will appear, that is, when there is a large team of cavalry rushing quickly, it will be caused.

If it was Datang's own soldiers and horses running, he, the lieutenant general of the prison guard, would definitely be notified, and now that he has not been notified, then these galloping cavalry must be the enemy.

Li Guan's shout not only shocked the guards and people at the city gate, but also Wu Zetian and the civil and military officials above the city, the head of the family, were even more frightened, and many people were panicked and almost fell to the city.

"Bold Duan Jian, you actually dare to communicate with foreign clans, and want to take the opportunity to capture my Tang Imperial Capital, it is simply heinous, come here, quickly take down this traitor, and execute it on the spot." At this time, the only one who can give orders, and who is so viciously targeting Duan Jian, is Wu Yizong, who has been humiliated by Duan Jian many times.

If it was in normal times, Wu Yizong's words would be no less than letting go of P, and the guards stationed at the head of the city would not bird him at all, but now it is different, seeing that the enemy army outside is attacking, how can he let this traitor be in the city, Wu Yizong shouted, and there were several guards who were relatively close to Duan Jian and walked towards Duan Jian.

Looking at the few guards who were walking towards him and trying to arrest him, Duan Jian scolded in his heart, the effect of Li Guan's shout just now was huge, not only causing the entire city and the officials, soldiers, and people under the city to panic, but even Duan Jian was blinded by his shouting, Duan Jian never imagined that his momentary kindness would actually trigger this effect.

"Slow, slow, slow, please be kind, it's not an enemy sneak attack at all, it's a person who transports food." Seeing that he was about to be taken by a few guards, Duan Jian hurriedly shouted.

"Nonsense, such a situation, it is clearly caused by the enemy brigade riding horses and galloping, and you still want to deceive the mother with clever words, it is simply a great crime, come here, quickly take down this spy." Duan Jian's shouting made the chaos above the city slightly better, but this shouting offended Li Guan, a lieutenant general, if it is proved that Duan Jian's shouting is true at this time, his shouting just now will be completely disgraced and thrown to his grandmother's house, afterwards, what will the queen of heaven think of him, how will the civil and military officials in the court look at him, even if he does not die, I am afraid that he will have to shed his skin.

"Wait a minute, Duan Jian, you said that the smoke and dust outside the city was caused by the people who transported the grain, what evidence do you have?" Li Guan is shrewd, Wu Zetian is not stupid, she doesn't think that Duan Jian dares to collude with foreign enemies to attack Chang'an City, if the outside is really not the enemy, but as Duan Jian said, it is a team transporting food, then from the smoke and dust, you can know how huge the team is, with this food, the food crisis in Chang'an City can be successfully passed, and she does not need to endure the cowards of those wealthy families.

"Weichen has no evidence now, but it will be available soon, those people are less than five miles away from the city, why don't you send someone to check it out, when the time comes, it will be clear whether it is the enemy or the team transporting grain." Duan Jian had already been held by several guards at this time, and except for his mouth, he couldn't move at all in the rest of his body.

Looking at Duan Jian, who was tied up by five flowers, Wu Zetian thought about it for a while, and then said to Li Guan, "General Li Lang, you can follow what Duan Jian said, send a person who dares to die, and go to investigate." ”

As soon as Wu Zetian's words came out, Li Guan could only take orders, and after a while, he saw a fast horse galloping out of Yanxing Gate and running towards the place where the smoke and dust came from.

After the knight galloped out, there was a rare silence above the city, all waiting for the exact news to come, and for many of them, the news was of great significance, even involving the lives and deaths of many people and families.

In the land of five miles, usually if people walk, it takes more than an hour, that is, more than half an hour, but if it is a fast horse galloping, it is more time to go back and forth.

During this time of incense, the entire Chang'an City received the news that the enemy army had come to attack Chang'an City transmitted by Yanxingmen, and the entire Chang'an City was in a solemn atmosphere, and even the imperial palace also got the news, which caused a great chaos.

But these situations are not the focus on everyone on the Yanxing Gate, as time passes, a stick of incense time passed quietly, and a figure galloped quickly from a distance, it was the knight who went to inquire about the news just now.

Seeing the appearance of the knight, the people above the city breathed a sigh of relief, after all, this knight can come back safely, which proves that the possibility of being an enemy in front is reduced by half.

Under the watchful eyes of all the people, the knight was not stage frightened, and after galloping to the city on a fast horse, he shouted loudly to the city, "Grain, grain, the army transporting food has arrived, and Chang'an City has been saved." ”
