Almost at the same time as Li Jinglong returned to the capital, the rebellious army of the King of Jin left Tiancheng and marched in the direction of the capital, and the other two groups of men and horses had already camped outside the capital, just waiting to join the team of the King of Jin. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The troops around the capital are divided into three parts, the first part is Sun Buer's border army of more than 30,000 people, all of them are elite, plus there are artillery, guns and warships, the combat effectiveness is amazing, but unfortunately, the warship was almost destroyed by ninjas on the water, if it is not for Lin Feng, Sun Buer also joined the Jin King rebellion, if it is really like that, the capital is really dangerous.

King Jin has already gotten the news, Sun Buer left with the border army, at this time, King Jin is already an arrow off the string and can not turn back, King Jin has a bottom in his heart, although Sun Buer is not with his own heart, he will not drag his own hind legs.

This is enough, and there are three completely different relationships between people, friends, enemies, and completely unrelated people.

King Jin sat in the carriage, and as he approached the capital, King Jin began to become excited, this is where his dream began, and it will eventually come true here. The bump of the carriage happened to hit the wound of King Jin.

King Jin snorted coldly, the guards outside and the accompanying strategists did not hear the voice inside, King Jin gritted his teeth, and would never show his cowardly side in front of his own people, this is the principle of King Jin, once it is discovered, it will be easy to be attacked, people are like this, King Jin believes that those who follow him are all for the benefits they can give them in the future, so people are greedy animals.

Geng Bingwen took Li Jinglong from the outer city to go straight to the inner city, and only after passing the inner city can he enter the imperial city, along the way, Geng Bingwen has never said a word, he should be thinking about how to deal with the chaotic army of the King of Jin, from Li Jinglong's description, this time the soldiers and horses led by the King of Jin far exceeded his own guards, and it was not possible to go out of the city to fight, only to rely on the city wall to hold on.

This kind of siege war consumes the most, and the casualties are the most, because it is the capital, the king of Jin wants to break through at all costs, the emperor has no way to retreat, he can only defend to the death, and if it goes on like this, the most bitter thing is the generals and the people.

The news of Li Jinglong's return to the capital soon reached the palace, and Qi Tai trotted all the way into the palace, at this time, Geng Bingwen and Li Jinglong were already waiting at the gate of the imperial city to be summoned.

"Master Hou, Duke Cao Guo."

Qi Tai came from afar to salute, don't look at the celebrity around the emperor, he still can't compare with the two in terms of status, one is the founding hero, the other is the hero, and the other is a relative.

"Lord Shangshu."

The two returned the salute at the same time.

At this time, the door inside opened, the eunuch came out of it, and the three of them followed to see Zhu Yunwen, who rested for a day, couldn't eat, and didn't want to do anything, even the flowers in the backyard of the imperial city were also in no mood.

The three of them entered one after another, and Li Jinglong knelt on the ground and shouted, "The criminal Li Jinglong knocks on the saint." Geng Bingwen knew that Qi Tai showed surprise on his face.

Zhu Yunwen's expression also changed, "Cao Guogong, get up and speak." ”

Qi Tai stepped forward to help Li Jinglong, Li Jinglong told him what had happened in the past few days, of course, he cleverly changed the part where Lin Feng helped him break through to lead the crowd to kill, which was equivalent to transferring all the credit to himself, as for the defeat later, it was just caused by his carelessness chasing the enemy.

Here are all people who understand, Li Jinglong obviously wants to put the responsibility on Lin Feng, it is very simple, Lin Feng was guarding the camp at that time, and there were also 10,000 soldiers and horses, and in the end the camp was lost, and the grain, grass and armaments were gone, so he returned to the capital with people.

Qi Tai frowned and deliberately asked, "In this way, King Jin's rebellious army will arrive in the capital soon!" The loss of the battalion had too much impact. Qi Tai was obviously speaking to Li Jinglong.

Geng Bingwen has a straight temperament, "You can't say that, since Cao Guogong's tens of thousands of troops are not opponents of the chaotic army, it can be seen that this way is the elite of King Jin, even if Lord Lin has extraordinary ability, how can he resist with only more than 10,000 people left in the camp!" Geng Bingwen has fought all his life, and he knows best who the people who stayed in the camp were.

"What's the use of talking about that now!"

Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but sigh, "General Geng, if the King of Jin rebels and besieges the capital, what are the chances of victory?" After you finished speaking, Zhu Yunwen looked at the old general Geng Bingwen, who had white hair, at that moment, Zhu Yunwen also felt a tightness in his heart, he didn't expect that he would have to rely on the old ministers of the former emperor to protect him, and Zhu Yunwen's eyes were more helpless.

Li Jinglong's fiasco made the little emperor, who had inherited the throne for less than half a year, realize a very serious matter, and there was really a lack of the kind of person who could lead troops to fight around him.

"The old minister will inevitably lead the people to fight a bloody battle to thank the emperor." Geng Bingwen said that it was equivalent to not saying it, Zhu Yunwen wanted to tell himself through Geng Bingwen's experience the possible outcome of this battle.

Zhu Yunwen nodded, "There is General Lao, Cao Guogong, how about the casualties of the new army?" ”

Li Jinglong stepped forward and said: "Back to the emperor, nearly half of the dead and wounded. ”

"The new army temporarily entered the outer city to assist General Geng Lao to retreat from the enemy together."

"Yes."

The capital of the Ming Dynasty has been renovated, and the scale far exceeds that of other dynasties, especially the outer city, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered people to expand the scale of the outer city in order to increase the commerce of the capital, and the streets were also widened, so even if Li Jinglong's 30,000 new troops entered, the entire outer city did not seem crowded.

Compared with Geng Bingwen's 50,000 guards, the new army at this time was dejected one by one, and that feeling was like a defeated rooster.

Geng Bingwen came out of the imperial city and hurried to the outer city, the chaotic advance of the King of Jin would appear at any time, as the main general, he did not dare to have any negligence, Li Jinglong lowered his head and walked out, and Qi Tai hurried to catch up.

"Cao Guogong."

Li Jinglong turned around and saw that it was Qi Tai, the two had some friendship in private, Qi Tai and Lin Feng were different, obviously intentionally slapping up this upstart in the army, "Lord Shangshu." ”

Qi Tai was happy, "Just call me Qi Tai." ”

Li Jinglong arched his hand, "Lord Qi, I don't know what to order?" ”

Zhu Yunwen didn't say anything, and he was inevitably dissatisfied with Li Jinglong in his heart, after all, he had high hopes for the new army, but he didn't expect to be defeated by the rebel army so quickly, and he lost the camp he had worked so hard to build.

"Don't dare, it just so happens that the house has prepared wine and food, if Cao Guogong doesn't like it, Qi Tai intends to invite him." After Qi Tai finished speaking, he smiled at Li Jinglong, this time he was thinking about Li Jinglong, marching all the way, there was nothing to eat or drink, and it would be best if he could have wine and meat at this time.

"In this way, wouldn't it make Lord Qi break the bank."

Qi Tai was happy, "I can invite Cao Guogong, but Qi Tai has cultivated it for several lifetimes." ”

"Okay."

Li Jinglong was complimented by Qi Tai and immediately came to the road, Li Jinglong at this time didn't expect that this was a trap that Qi Tai gave him, a gentle trap was waiting for him to get into.

As long as you drink this wine, with Qi Tai's scheming and means of winning people over, the two of them are tied together, Qi Tai is naturally willing to do this kind of thing, and Li Jinglong should not object, after all, Qi Tai is now a big celebrity around the emperor, how many people think of a way to tie up with this powerful person, and at this time they actually invite each other in person, which is definitely enough to give themselves face.

Li Jinglong attaches great importance to face, so he also likes others to give him face, only in this way can he show his identity, just like that, Geng Bingwen strode out of the imperial city and flew on his horse and ran straight to the direction of the outer city.

Li Jinglong followed Qi Tai into the carriage and went to Qi Tai's Shangshu Mansion to drink, this is the biggest difference between Li Jinglong and Geng Bingwen, Geng Bingwen has never been bitter, and he has relied on his ability step by step to sit in today's position, and he knows most that it is not easy to be a soldier, so every time he can eat and live with the soldiers in the army, don't look at it as a small matter, in the eyes of those who are soldiers, it is a big thing, this way of leading troops is completely different from Li Jinglong.

Li Jinglong was born well-fed and dressed, and he was served by someone to do everything, and he knew that his father was a great general since he was a child, so from that time on, Li Jinglong told himself that he would be a general when he grew up.

The general did it, but unfortunately it was useless, especially after quelling the troubles in the north, the Ming Dynasty did not raise troops for several years, and Li Jinglong could only ask for the will to train the new army.

Li Jinglong has a set of training, but unfortunately, it is difficult to change the habits of the past, even in the new army camp, Li Jinglong's camp size and usual food are different from others.
