On the way, Liu San said to Wang De: "Several other city gates have arranged people, right?" ”

Wang De smiled and said, "Don't worry, everything has been arranged." As soon as the old general's men and horses come in, they can catch turtles in an urn. As long as the army in the city sees the old general, most of them will definitely rebel, but we must first get rid of a few people in charge of the Wang family, otherwise after the instigation of the Wang family, they will definitely resist to the death, and finally become the infighting of my Tang army. ”

Liu San arched his hand towards Wang De: "Jiang is still old and spicy, General Wang will be promoted to the throne in the future, don't forget your brother." ”

Wang De laughed: "What are you talking about, now so-and-so is just guilty of meritorious service." Don't seek to be rich and rich, just hope that your family will not suffer. Now that he is over forty years old, he no longer has the determination and motivation to climb up. After this incident, a certain Wang brother has also become a person who is a backbone, who will believe our brother? ”

Liu San waved his hand: "Whatever General Wang said, when your brothers arrive at the military academy, they will know that those who are talented and loyal to Your Majesty can get a chance to display their talents." A certain was also a guard by the side of my general's before, and that Zheng Ming, he used to be just a person on the periphery of the Zheng family, isn't he all very good in the military academy now? Don't care about your background, at the beginning of the establishment of the military academy, my generals established the strategy of teaching without class, as long as you have talent, you will never be buried! ”

When Wang De heard this, he immediately said: "If this is really the case, I must definitely fight hard and fight for a good future for my descendants!" ”

Because they were all dressed up in the city defense army, and they couldn't really see it in the dark, every time they met soldiers patrolling the city, they would use words like changing guards as an excuse. All the way to the south gate, there was no suspicion. Although Wang De was nominally the general of Jinyang, the power of the entire army was held by the Wang family. It is not easy for him to attract six or seven thousand people in the city defense army, all thanks to Wang De's usual good personality and not putting on a show.

The captain of the city gate at the south gate was shaking a fan and drinking in the city gate tower at this time. Since the fall of power in the city defense army a few years ago, these petty officers have become the focus of the Wang family. As a result, the combat effectiveness of the city defense army plummeted, and there were not a few officers like the captain of the city gate who openly drank alcohol during their duties.

In the dark shadows outside the city gate, it was densely packed with Wang De's people, but the soldiers on duty at the city gate were still giggling and chatting together, not knowing that death was just around the corner. Wang De glanced at Liu San and whispered, "Is it time?" When the time comes, the signal will be issued, and the people outside the city don't know how to prepare. ”

As they spoke, a black-clothed man approached them.

Just as the people were about to raise their weapons, the man suddenly said, "My own people, from outside the city." ”

Liu San fixed his eyes and saw that it was Li Liansheng. He didn't know when he actually turned into the city.

Liu San came to Li Liansheng's side: "How did you get in?" What happened to the centaurs outside the city? ”

Li Liansheng smiled: "There are many ways to come in, but I didn't expect that the dignified Jinyang City would be so lax in defense." The men and horses outside the city are ready, just waiting for your signal! ”

Wang De nodded: "Everyone, seal your wife and shadow son, at this time!" ”

The crowd did not speak, but their eyes were much brighter.

A soldier held a bamboo tube in his hand, and after he put it on the torch and lit it, he saw a string of firelight soaring into the sky, and then exploding in the sky, colorful and beautiful.

But none of these centaurs cared about admiring such a beautiful view. They divided into two roads, one way to take the city, the other way to the city, the winch that controlled the drawbridge at the city gate was on the city tower, which was the key to whether the people outside the city could enter the city.

Li Liansheng greeted Liu San, and then flashed into the streets of the city like a tanuki. At some point, there were many dark shadows behind him. Their target was several high-ranking officials of the Wang family in Jinyang City. As long as a few of them are eliminated, there is no unified command in the city, and there will definitely be chaos.

On the one hand, the preparations were made, and on the other hand, the long-lax haste to deal with the situation, and the entire battle for the city gate became a one-sided massacre, until the last person was killed, and the defenders of the city did not organize an effective resistance.

The city tower is also much the same, just by Li Liansheng they can swagger over the wall to get in, you can know how rotten the Jinyang defenders are. If they were at the border pass, Li Liansheng would be afraid that it would be difficult for them to climb over the city wall even if they had wings. The soldiers of Jinyang City have been abandoned for too long, and have forgotten that knives and blood are their best companions.

When Li Yi and the others came in, there was no decent fighting near the city gate.

Li Yi turned his face and said to Gao Shi: "The defenders of Jinyang have actually eroded into such a state, and even the basic blood is gone, no wonder Your Majesty hates the Wang family so much." If there is a rebellion in the hinterland of Datang, it will really be driven straight in, because even this companion can actually make the people in the city go down. The old man thought he would resist to the death. ”

Gao Shi smiled: "We are ordered to get rid of the Wang family, and other fights can be avoided or avoided, and there will be no one in the entire city when the time comes." This Wang De is not simple, he can design like this in just one day and one night, and he is a good person. ”

Li Yi stroked his beard and said, "It depends on how loyal he is to His Majesty." ”

As soon as he had finished speaking, he began to order his troops to go into the city and the other gates. This time, Li Yi did not plan to let go of a Wang family.

The sound of horses galloping in the city and the shouts of killing one after another finally woke up some graces, but when they were just getting dressed and about to go out to see what was going on, Li Liansheng and they made a move. Almost half of the Wang family's official positions were killed in their bedrooms, and some were beheaded without even putting on their clothes. They have been comfortable for too long, so long that they have forgotten that this court is surnamed Li, and the Li family is the real master of Jinyang!

By dawn, most of the city defense soldiers had already disarmed, and some even rebelled directly in the melee, after all, both sides were city defense troops, both were people from the same place, and they knew each other. Under the persuasion of their own people, these people became the first batch of city defense troops to abandon the darkness and turn to the light.

After someone took the lead, the determination of the city defense army to resist to the death was much smaller, after all, no one was willing to die, and this time it was the army of the imperial court, and the end of their resistance was to be defined as a rebel, and even their own families would be implicated.

So by dawn, the resistance in the city had basically been cleared, and the people of the Wang family began to be arrested under the leadership of the local city defense army. Besides, whether it is Wan Qi or Jin Wuwei, or a military cadet, which is not the person closest to the Son of Heaven, which is not a high-minded and arrogant person, they don't bother to say anything more to the Wang family, for those who tell them big truths, they often directly send weapons, and if there is any dissatisfaction, let's talk about it underground!

The Wang family has thousands of people in Jinyang City, plus a few people from other families who are in the same breath as the Wang family, and there are no more than 10,000 prisoners this time. And that's not even counting the associated people. It is estimated that when the entire city is cleared, the captives are estimated to be tens of thousands. Li Yi, who knew Li Longji and Liu Hao's strategy, was happy at this moment. These are all laborers for the construction of Xinxiang City, and naturally the more the better.

Gao Shi, Li Song, and Xue Xiu are already busy, and no one has experienced the treatment of so many captives. Li Song had experienced it before when he seized power in the palace, but at that time he was still a small soldier, and at that time, tens of thousands of people were directly covered up, and he didn't think about using these laborers at all.

Things went surprisingly well, and Li Yi was very happy in his heart, such a credit was actually easy to get. When I discussed with Li Longji in the past, I always felt that the Wang family was too big, so huge that they didn't know how to solve it. Unexpectedly, since the Cui family was overthrown, the other families seemed to have opened the turtle shell outside, so that the court could toss at will.

In fact, Li Yi's attack on Wang's family was still a blitzkrieg tactic, which was unexpected and directly hit their vital point. Although there are still Wang family members in other places who are officials or doing business, as long as the Jinyang Wang family is eradicated, Li Yi believes that someone will deal with them. After all, it is impossible to say that a family has no opponents, and some are even feuds.

When Wang De entered the big tent, Li Yi personally went out to greet him. He was confused by Li Yi's enthusiasm. Although he knew that he had made meritorious contributions, he did not know whether he could offset his past mistakes. After all, the sin of not obeying the order can be big or small, if Li Yi really intends to target him, their brother and family will definitely die.

But Li Yi will not do this, the only thought of this wise old general now is to hurry up and train the next generation of military generals. Li Yi alone can't support the military of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, the generals in the DPRK and China now have their own factions, in fact, there are not many generals who can make Li Longji feel at ease, or Li Yi would not have been rejected by Li Longji if he resigned several times and returned home to retire. He does have too few people at his disposal right now.

However, the establishment of the military academy made Li Yi see a glimmer of light, and after entering the military academy, whether it was Lu Yue, who was very arrogant, or Gao Shi, who was both civil and military, Li Yi was surprised. It was only then that he understood what Liu Hao heard from the side: Datang has never lacked talents, and there are all kinds of talents. All they need is a chance!

The turmoil in Luoyang City also came to an end, except for a few unlucky families who wanted to fish in troubled waters and were beheaded by Li Longji, other people involved with Li Shouli were punished accordingly, Li Mao's men and horses immediately died down, and many courtiers rushed to report the fact that Li Mao was preparing to rebel. However, Li Longji did not pursue it, but was completely disappointed in this son in his heart. Just don't have this son, Li Longji can only comfort himself like this.
