Chapter 760: Raising Troops (3)
Outside the city of Luoyang. The 100,000-strong army was neatly arrayed, waving flags, and the sky and earth were full of slaughter.
Su Wu was neatly draped all over her body, and her horse galloped from the city. The fierce sound of horses' hooves galloped like thunder, and in addition to the two female generals Nie Chuchen and Gu Yun, there were also five thousand elite cavalry from the female barracks who followed behind Su Wan. These are all female soldiers trained by Nie Chuchen, but the women are not allowed to shave their eyebrows, and all of them can fight well to be ten.
Su Wu galloped in front of the battle, she was wearing the standard armor of the Tang Dynasty army today, holding double swords, and her posture was heroic. She shouted loudly: "Sons, the court has no way, the emperor is mediocre, the traitors of the court are in charge, King Zheng has made great contributions to the court, but he is innocent, may I ask the sons, we fought bloodily for the Tang Dynasty, the court not only did not reward the court, but wanted the rabbit to die and the dog to cook and kill the donkey, do you promise to agree?" ”
"Never say yes! Raise troops to attack Chang'an, Qingjun's side! Avenge King Zheng! The 100,000 army erupted in unison, deafening and almost a tsunami roar, and the military flag of the entire Luoyang City Gate Tower was shaken by this overwhelming roar, and all the Luoyang people and businessmen flocked out of the city, crowded on both sides of the road, talking about it, and watching Su Wu point the troops.
In mid-air, no one noticed that in a circle of sky-blue ripples, Kong Sheng stood quietly in mid-air, as if he was stepping on the clouds, fluttering like a fairy. Kong Sheng's expression was slightly complicated, and under his feet, Su Wu ordered troops to attack Chang'an, and under the banner of avenging him and Qingjun's side, he watched for a long time.
In fact, he had already returned to Luoyang, but he had been hiding and had not met anyone. It's not that he's hiding or being afraid of anything, it's that he's really a little dazed, it's not that difficult to replace the Li Tang royal family, as long as he wants to do it, he will definitely be able to do it.
The crux of the matter is what to do after replacing the Li Tang royal family. Do you want to make him emperor? To be honest, Kong Sheng not only has the ambition of such power, but also troublesome. How many things do you have to manage when you are an emperor, the world is so big, the power is monopolized, and you are tired to death.
But if you want to implement a modern democratic system in this era of royal power, Kong Sheng actually knows that it will not work. Even if he uses power to advance, the people of the world or the top social elites dare not speak out, but in time, as long as his influence weakens slightly, this so-called political reform will be overturned and restarted.
What to do in any era is the basic law of society and history. He can't go against the tide alone.
These days, Kong Sheng has not made up his mind, so he has not shown his head. But what he didn't expect was that Su Wu and these people were so anxious that they couldn't wait for him to show up to cause the fact that they were anti-Tang.
Kong Sheng suddenly realized that he was no longer alone. He has women such as Su Wu Ji Guo, Yang Xue Ruo, Nie Chuchen Guyun, and Li Biao, Li Hu, Wu Xianwu, Yang Tong, and Yuan Chao, their net worth and lives have been pinned on themselves, and they are both prosperous and lossy, and it is reasonable for this group of subordinates to worry about the suppression and retaliation of the Li Tang royal family.
Therefore, Kong Sheng knew that he couldn't avoid it and couldn't avoid it.
How else can you avoid it? There are some things he has to face and bear, and he has to give an explanation to his confidantes and loyal subordinates who have followed him over the years.
Kong Sheng made up his mind, and his eyes flashed with a touch of indifference. Since the Li Tang royal family is unjust, then Hugh blames him for being ruthless.
Su Wu was about to do some "pre-war mobilization" to boost morale, but suddenly, the cavalry battalion soldiers under Li Biao and Li Hu suddenly exclaimed, and almost all the soldiers were stunned and raised their heads to look at Kong Sheng, who was stepping on auspicious clouds falling from the sky. Kong Sheng is a flying machine that uses the combination of world power from condensation, but this substance cannot be seen by the naked eye of the world, so in the eyes of the outside world, Kong Sheng seems to be an omnipotent immortal who flies in the sky and walks against the wind.
All the soldiers looked up to the sky, and their faces were filled with awe and shock. There have always been theories of gods and ghosts, but no one has ever seen a real immortal, but King Zheng Kong Sheng walked under the noses of everyone in the wind, stepping on auspicious clouds in a way that subverted the eyes of the world.
Su Wu looked up at the sky, shocked and full of surprise. The two scimitars in her hands were quietly returned to the sheath, and since Kong Sheng had returned, she didn't need a woman to charge into battle.
Nie Chuchen burst into tears. She looked at Kong Sheng, who was still floating in the air, with mixed feelings, and she didn't know what to say for a while. Even Gu Yun's emotions were a little excited, and she jumped off the horse and ran in the direction where Kong Sheng had floated.
"King Zheng! King Zheng is really a god! The immortals drove the clouds down to the earth...... "Whether it is the guards of the city gate tower or the Luoyang officials such as Yuan Chao and Yang Tong, or the large group of Luoyang merchants and ordinary people outside the city, or the 100,000 troops in front of them, their brains are blank at this moment, occupied by Kong Sheng's tall figure.
Yang Tong's lips trembled, his face full of incredulity and extreme shock. He is a great Confucian in the world, and he doesn't believe in strange forces and chaos the most, but in front of him, Kong Sheng came in the clouds, and he directly overturned all his cognition.
At this time, he suddenly remembered what Kong Sheng had told him in the past: Sir, there may not be ghosts and gods in this world, but there must be unconventional power, or energy, that you can't perceive and contend with.
Kong Sheng was still floating in mid-air in full view, and he was silent in front of the 100,000-strong army. All the soldiers could clearly see every change in his face, even a frowning detail, but he remained strangely silent after all.
After a long time. His clear and powerful voice suddenly rolled through the audience: "The soldiers of the three armies, are you willing to follow me west to Chang'an and eliminate the traitors?!" ”
Kong Sheng didn't say a word of nonsense. He didn't even bother to say half a word about the high-sounding whitewashed anti-Tang words, because he felt that it was not necessary.
"We are willing, attack Chang'an, and support the prince as the emperor!"
After a few seconds of silence for the 100,000-strong army, Hulala fell to the ground together, and the sound of mountains and tsunamis swept across the wilderness, past the ancient city of Luoyang.
What a majestic sight it must have been, beyond any words to describe. Anyway, the 100,000 army knelt on the ground, their eyes were full of endless worship to Kong Sheng, and their hearts were filled with the huge fanaticism of changing the dynasty.
A day later. Luoyang issued a rebellion, announcing to the world, raising 100,000 troops, marching west to Chang'an, and Qingjun's side. The world shook.
This means that Kong Sheng, the king of Zheng in Luoyang, finally rose up against the Tang Dynasty after falling out with the Li Tang royal family. The Anshi Rebellion had not completely subsided, and Kong Sheng's army commanded the world again, raising the banner of overthrowing Li Tang's rule.
Luoyang's banner is from Yang Tong's handwriting. As a great Confucian in the world, Yang Tong's collection can be imagined, he avoided the grievances between Kong Sheng and the emperor, but pointed the spearhead directly at the crown prince Li Yu, accusing Li Yu of being rebellious, monopolizing power, imprisoning the emperor, being mediocre, killing heroes in vain, and treacherous in credit, resulting in the chaos of the people's livelihood and chaos.
Although Kong Sheng only has an army of 100,000, and the Li Tang royal family still has the 200,000 army of Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, Kong Sheng's prestige is too heavy, especially the various miracles shown by Kong Sheng in Chang'an have already spread all over the world, in the eyes of the world, Kong Sheng is a god descended into the world, which in a sense, Kong Sheng's anti-Tang represents the will of heaven and the people's hearts are not on the side of the Li Tang royal family.
Empress Zhang and Li Tong, the king of Ding, were not surprised when they received the news that Luoyang had raised troops against the Tang Dynasty on the way to Luoyang, because it was expected, but the mother and son were very disappointed, because they had other plans and wanted to use Kong Sheng to achieve their political goals.
Empress Zhang originally thought that with Li Tong's good relationship with Ji Guo and Kong Sheng, as long as Kong Sheng raised troops, she would definitely support Li Dong as the main one, so that she could compete with the crown prince Li Yu in Dayi. But unexpectedly, Kong Sheng did not wait for Li Tong's arrival at all, and directly raised troops to fight against the Tang Dynasty.
Empress Zhang weighed it again and again, and decided to temporarily hide in Baiyun Temple in Zhongnan Mountain, waiting for the results of the war between Kong Sheng and Chang'an before deciding to stop. If Li Yu wins, they naturally have no hope or extravagance, so they can only honestly return to Chang'an and let Li Yu dispose of it. But if Kong Sheng wins, and Li Tong, the king of Dingwang, is the emperor's son, the opportunity comes.
Of course, what Empress Zhang is most worried about now is that Kong Sheng will ascend the throne and become emperor by himself, completely changing the dynasty. If that is the case, the descendants of the Li Tang royal family, including the king of Ding, Li Tong, will not have the slightest chance.
However, Empress Zhang still gave the last ray of hope.
Kong Sheng's 100,000-strong army marched west to Chang'an, and naturally there was a lot of movement. But wherever the army went, on the one hand, Qiu did not commit any crimes, and on the other hand, the state capitals did not dare to confront Kong Sheng, so as long as Kong Sheng's army did not attack their own territory, they were too lazy to turn a blind eye and let Kong Sheng's army pass quickly.
Periphery of Puzhou.
Since the march, although Kong Sheng's people are in the army, they have not shown their heads much. The command and dispatch of the entire army are all in the hands of Su Wan. Yang Tong and Yuan Chao, as military advisers and military advisers, were responsible for logistics support.
Tanma galloped to report, saying that Puzhou was garrisoned by Nanjiyun's 30,000 Shence army, and the movement was unknown at the moment.
Li Biao stood up and bowed his hand to Su Wan: "Princess, that Nan Jiyun and Nan Yong father and son were originally the old department of the prince, and the 30,000 Shence Army was also adapted from the Xia Yi Army of that year, but Nan Jiyun is stubborn, and a certain family is worried that he is loyal to the Li Tang royal family and wants to compete with our army, so he has to guard against it." ”
Wu Xian also echoed: "What General Li said is reasonable, Nan Jiyun and his son have to guard against it, a certain family suggests, we simply raise troops to attack Puzhou, take Puzhou, and deter the world!" ”
Su Wan smiled slightly: "Kong Lang is kind to Nan Jiyun's father and son, and Nan Jiyun can have today, completely because of Kong Lang's support." In fact, you don't have to worry, it's just 30,000 gods, don't take it to heart, if Nan Jiyun is determined to be the enemy of our army, then, take Puzhou in one go! ”
Su Wan's charming eyes gradually became cold. Although she is a woman, she does not lack all the hard-hearted and strong means that she should have as an army commander, and if Nan Jiyun wants to be a lackey for the Li Tang royal family, then she will not be merciful.
Luoyang raised troops, and there was no turning back. Don't say that a Nan Jiyun is a famous general like Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, if you want to block the advance of the Luoyang army, you can only kill one way.
In Puzhou City, Nan Jiyun's father and son were arguing fiercely at this time.
Nan Yong undoubtedly proposed to lead the army to surrender to Kong Sheng, and shouted for Kong Sheng's anti-Tang Dynasty, but Nan Jiyun resolutely refused. The father and son quarreled privately over this matter in the past two days, with a red face and a thick neck.
Seeing that his pedantic father couldn't turn this corner, Nan Yong was a little anxious: "Father, King Zheng has a great kindness to our Nan family, if there is no King Zheng, how can you and my father and son have the glory and wealth today?" Now that King Zheng is rebelling, how can our Nan family sit idly by? ”
Nan Jiyun sneered: "King Zheng is certainly kind to our Nan family, but at this time and that time, now that King Zheng is rebelling, how can our Nan family, as ministers of the imperial court, be vassals and thieves?" ”
Nan Yong stomped his feet: "Father, don't you know, it was the crown prince Li Yu and the emperor who were unkind and killed the heroes in vain, do you want to let King Zheng sit and wait to be killed?" King Zheng made such a world-class contribution to the Tang Dynasty, but the emperor did not teach and punished him, which has already chilled the hearts of the world. ”
Nan Jiyun fell silent. He was foolish, but he was not a fool. He knew why Li Yu held the emperor hostage to attack Kong Sheng, there was only one reason, Kong Sheng's achievements were high. If Kong Sheng is allowed to develop, he will inevitably become a big problem for the Li Tang royal family, how can an emperor tolerate a courtier who threatens the imperial power to exist in the court? Therefore, although Li Yu's approach is chilling, it stands in the interests of the royal family, which is understandable.
There is no right or wrong in this kind of thing.
Nan Jiyun was silent for a while, and only said one sentence: "The king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die!" This is not a reason for King Zheng to rebel! ”
Nan Yong was speechless, he knew that it would be difficult for him to persuade his father to change his mind. Nan Jiyun is stubborn and stubborn to death many times.
Nan Yong sighed and said softly: "Father, do you know that King Zheng is a god descended from the world, brave and invincible, and wherever the 100,000 troops of Luoyang go, no one can compete with them. Chang'an will inevitably fall into the hands of King Zheng, and even Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi are not opponents of King Zheng, so why should our father and son resist the Luoyang army? ”
"Sooner or later, this world will belong to King Zheng. The Li Tang royal family is at the end of its rope, if it is at that time, how can our Nan family be embarrassed? ”
Nan Jiyun took a deep breath and said: "We are in Puzhou, if the Luoyang military horses go around Chang'an, we will naturally ignore it." But if King Zheng raises troops to attack, a certain family has already received an edict from the imperial court to block Kong Sheng's westward entry into Chang'an, so he can only fight to the death with the soldiers and horses of Luoyang! ”
Nan Yong couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Father, ask yourself, what are our chances of winning against King Zheng?" ”
Nan Jiyun's expression was stiff, and he said coldly: "Only death!" It is the duty of you and my courtiers to be loyal to the court! ”
