Listening to my shouts and the chorus of the guards, some of the soldiers lost their claims.

Even if it was Yang Biao's party's descendants who guarded the camp gate, not all the soldiers in the army knew about Yang Biao's conspiracy, and many of them were just kept in the dark and acted on orders, and they didn't know what was happening in Liu Shen's palace at this moment.

The truth I told surprised many soldiers! Holding the emperor hostage is a great crime against the sky to rob the family and destroy the nine clans! Could it be that he unknowingly participated in the rebellion of some generals?

Some soldiers were frightened and hesitated, and some of them fell to their knees one after another.

At this moment, a hoarse voice like a male duck sounded: "Don't listen to her rumors to confuse the public!" She's not a queen at all! They are assassins intent on assassinating the Emperor and the Great General! She dared to kill Commander Zhou at the gate of the barracks, what are you waiting for, immediately give her to me to pieces! ”

The one who gritted his teeth and made a sound was Zhou Tingchen's brother and adjutant. He also participated in Yang Biao's conspiracy, knowing that after defeat, he would be doomed, so he could only let it go. He was the first to draw his saber and pounced on me, swinging the knife and slashing, before I could continue to release the arrow, Ma Zhichu next to him raised his knife and rushed over the prancing horse, with a local sound, the two blades intersected, Ma Zhichu opened his saber, and the two horses circled and fought in one place.

"Kill them! Don't let any of them go! Zhou Tingchen's sworn friends also rushed out, raising their steel sabers and rushing towards us.

The guards quickly changed formations, forming battle arrays, tightly surrounding me, and keeping me tightly guarded in the center of the line.

Seeing that a bloody battle was about to break out, at this critical moment, a thunderous roar sounded in the air: "Stop it all!" ”

I looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a frost-haired veteran, leading more soldiers, hurrying from the camp. There was a burst of joy in my heart. I know this veteran, he is Zhou Tingchen's top boss, your loyal old department, the heroic vanguard officer of the Entu battle, and the old general Li Guozhong.

In the course of patrolling the camp, Li Guozhong heard a hurried report from his subordinates, saying that Zhou Tingchen had a conflict with a group of household attendants who claimed to be Yang Biao's mansion, and Zhou Tingchen was shot dead on the spot by Mrs. Yang's personal maid.

As he approached the camp gate, he heard my loud shout, and the truth I told him sounded like five thunderbolts. He and I had met many times, had a number of conversations, were very familiar to me, and had no doubt about my identity. The fact that I personally risked my life to enter the barracks while I was pregnant is a sign that the rebellion has really taken place and that the Emperor is really in danger. The reaction of Zhou Tingchen and his gang also confirmed from the side that some people in the army were indeed involved in the rebellion.

It's worth it! Li Guozhong is loyal to Liu Shen, where can he sit idly by! It was imperative to save the lives of my mother and son, so he let go of his throat and shouted loudly.

In an instant, Li Guozhong led the team to rush to the place where the two sides were confronted. Li Guozhong pointed at Zhou Tingchen's henchmen and shouted: "A group of rebellious ministers and rebels dare to attack the queen and murder the emperor's heir, and they won't take it all for me!" Not a single one of them can get away!"

Li Guozhong has been fighting in the army all his life, what kind of prestige does that have, he gave an order, the Han army at the scene suddenly had a backbone, and they stood up one after another, and rushed to Zhou Tingchen's party henchmen, three strikes and five divided by two, and this group of people died and wounded, or lay on the ground, or were captured.

A looming crisis was suddenly resolved. The nerves in my body relaxed. I felt a cramping pain in my abdomen, and sweat beaded on my forehead.

I gritted my teeth to endure the pain, and said to myself in my heart: "Hold on, I must not at this time, I must see Yang Biao, and I must protect the King of Han!" ”

Fortunately, the sky has eyes, and the colic in the abdomen lasted for a minute, and it slowly eased.

I wiped the sweat from my forehead, cheered myself up, straightened up, and sat upright on horseback.

I said loudly to Li Guozhong: "General Li, thank you Li Qing for your loyalty!" I order you to quickly lead the troops to escort and rescue the emperor! ”

Li Guozhong jumped off his horse, came to my horse in three steps and two steps, fell on his knees, and said: "The guilty minister is dull, he has not noticed that there is a conspiracy to rebel in the army, and he is too late to save the car, so I ask the queen to forgive me." ”

I said, "What time is it?" General, please get up quickly and lead my troops to escort me to the palace to meet Yang Biao. ”

Ma Zhichu and the housekeeper of Yang Biao's mansion briefly introduced the conspiracy of Yang Biao and his gang to Li Guozhong.

As the supreme commander of the Han army, Yang Biao openly rebelled and rebelled, and Li Guozhong was deeply shocked to do such a thing, but he was also very familiar with Yang Biao, and felt that with Yang Biao's proud and domineering personality, he could not accept Liu Shen's disarmament decision, and it was very reasonable for him to decide to strike first for fear that Liu Shen would hide his bow and bring disaster to himself.

He immediately said: "The queen can rest assured, Yang Biao has just been to the palace at noon today, presumably he has not poisoned His Majesty at this time, and His Majesty should still be safe." The old minister blocked the news of the queen's entry into the camp and the shooting of Zhou Tingchen, so as not to let the rumors leak out, and personally escorted the queen to the palace to ask Yang Biao for the crime. However, since Yang Biao has rebelled, he will inevitably jump over the wall in a hurry, the queen did not bring the army, so she went to see him like this, in case he came to a fish and the net was broken, wouldn't it be too dangerous? ”

I said, "In any case, he is also the one who has followed His Majesty for most of his life and followed the late general for many years, and I don't believe that he is so inhumane!" Even if he wants to die and the net is broken, I must go to see Your Majesty. Where Your Majesty is, I should be there, and I must not abandon Your Majesty alone in the danger of life and death. ”

I turned to the Han soldiers in the department and said, "Han soldiers! What I just said is true, the housekeeper of the Yang Mansion is here, and he can prove that Yang Biao has indeed planned this rebellion, and has indeed invaded the palace and kidnapped and detained His Majesty. ”

I said, "Brothers, this army was founded by my father's painstaking efforts, and forged and tempered by my brother, the late general. You are all my relatives, my brothers by flesh and blood. Could it be that my father, the late general, gave his life and effort to forge this invincible hero, so that one day you will come to troubled the country, murder the king, provoke a civil war, and destroy the peace and prosperity that those dead brothers fought so hard to win? Since when did the Han army change from the stopper of the war and the guardian of the peace to the igniter of the war and the destroyer of the peace? ”

I said, "Have you forgotten the wounds of 200 years of war, and are you going to push your parents, wives, neighbors, and friends into the flames of civil strife again?" ”

I said, "Answer me!" Is this what you want? ”

Some Han soldiers replied: "No." We don't want to go back to war! ”

I said, "Good! As a woman, I admire this heroic answer of yours. Now, the situation is critical, and to defend Your Majesty is to defend the peace of the world! If the brothers don't want to rekindle the civil strife, if you want to maintain the peace and prosperity, then you must listen to my orders, turn your swords, exterminate Yang Biao and his gang of thieves, and swear to protect them to the death! ”

Li Guozhong said impassionedly: "Old minister, I am willing to obey the queen's orders, even if I am broken, I must be loyal to the country, exterminate the thieves, and swear to protect the driver!" He raised the Gino's scimitar in his hand and shouted, "Escort! Escort! ”

My words and Li Guozhong's shouting have aroused the seeds of loyalty and patriotism that have been deeply sown in the hearts of the officers and men of the Han army since you took command of the Han army.

The officers and men of the Han army of the department, the crowd was excited, they raised their sabers one after another, and followed Li Guozhong to shout in unison: "Escort!" Escort! ”

In the deafening sound of "escort", the door of the Han army camp opened. I rode my horse and led the team straight into the camp gate, and Li Guozhong and Ma Zhichu drove the mounts, closely following the guards on my left and right.

In this way, for the second time in my life, I walked into the barracks of the Han army.

The moment I crossed the camp gate, I felt my blood boiling again, just like I did when I was younger. My father's brave soul, and the endless flow of courage and courage that surged through your body, all seemed to have gathered in me.

I remembered what you said to me when you first brought me into the barracks, and you said that you wanted this army to be naturally inclined to me from the very beginning. You said that as Liu Shen's wife and the mother of the son, there are some responsibilities that I must bear. You say, I'm going to have this army at my disposal someday!

Now, everything you prophesied 30 years ago has really happened!

30 years, how long-term your vision is, how accurate your foresight!

This army founded by my father, now after I say a few words, can follow me with one heart and face the rebellion of Yang Biao, a military genius, is this my strength! This is all the strength that you and your father have accumulated with their young lives, for me, and for the people of the world! (To be continued.) )
