Wang Shichong and Yuan Wen both accused each other, and both regarded themselves as loyal ministers, and Yang Tong couldn't tell the difference for a while; It wasn't until Duan Da appeared that both sides took a step back and suspended the quarrel.

After entering the imperial city, Duan Da directly tied up Yuan Wen in front of Yang Tong.

The two ministers staged an infernal scene in front of him, and Yang Tong was suddenly so panicked that he couldn't say words of reproach for a while.

Yuan Wendu was arrested, but he shouted to Yang Tong, "If the minister dies in the morning, it will be Your Majesty's turn in the evening."

Perhaps worried that Yuan Wendu would become a prophecy, Yang Tong cried and asked Duan Dadao, "Duan Qing, the gentleman doesn't move his mouth, can't you sit down and talk slowly about the differences between you?" ”

"Yuan Wendu wants to kill General Wang, is it bearable, who is unbearable!" Duan Da shook his head, and when he said this, the face of the undercover agent was already revealed.

When Yuan Wendu heard this, his face was already like ashes, not only regretting that he was going to do something to Wang Shichong, but also regretting that he had chosen Duan Da, a cartilage thief.

Is there anything else that can be remedied?

Duan Da didn't believe Yang Tong's tears, and immediately pretended to be his will to order someone to open the palace gate and welcome Wang Shichong, who was under the banner of saving the driver.

Wang Shichong changed the guard of Miyagi as soon as possible, which meant that the disaster of Yuan Wendu affected Yang Tong, the fish in the pond.

Of course, Yuan Wen still has to die, but these things can be done by subordinates.

It's just that in the face of death, Yuan Wendu still left a hysterical cry for mercy, but this did not prevent him from being chopped into meat sauce by Wang Shichong's knife and axe.

In the face of Yuan Wendu's death, Yang Tong seemed to empathize, and finally hardened once, and asked Wang Shichong sharply, "You raised troops to kill people without authorization, do you still take me in your eyes?" Am I going to die at your hands today? ”

As early as the beginning of the year, when he rushed from Jiangdu to help the Eastern Capital, Wang Shichong had thought about the plan to enter the Eastern Capital to occupy the magpie's nest, if Yang Tong asked this at that time, he really didn't mind giving him a knife with his own hands.

But the world has changed, and the army brought by Wang Shichong from Jiangdu has gone to seven or eight, although he still has ambitions, he no longer dares to be arrogant.

In the face of Yang Tong's questioning, Wang Shicheng immediately bowed down in panic, crying and said, "The reason why the minister was born and died was to chase the special encounter of the first emperor, and he wanted to repay it to His Majesty."

Yang Tong frowned, although Wang Shichong in front of him was dragging the text of Zhuge Liang's "Teacher Table", it seemed to be quite relevant.

The reason why Wang Shichong rescued the Eastern Capital was indeed at the order of the first emperor, but didn't he comfort him several times when he was defeated?

Wang Shichong secretly glanced up at Yang Tong, whose face was sinking like water, and then cried, "Yuan Wendu, Lu Chu and others harbored evil intentions and recruited Zhai Rang and Li Mi to endanger the society, but the ministers just had different opinions, so they would not allow the ministers." Fortunately, General Duan has his own opinions and does not agree with Yuan Wendu's chaotic life. The minister was in a hurry and didn't have time to ask His Majesty for instructions, and he really felt sorry, but the minister swore that the minister had no ill will towards His Majesty at all, and if His Majesty still didn't believe in His Majesty, the minister"

Although Yang Tong has doubts about Wang Shichong's words, the current situation is weaker than people, what can he do if he doesn't believe him?

What's more, Yuan Wendu and Lu Chu have been killed, Duan Da and Huangfu Wuyi are both close to Wang Shichong, even if they really want to kill Wang Shichong, they can't find anyone to do it.

Moreover, even if he and Wang Shichong are killed, who can be counted on for the operation of the Eastern Capital?

In desperation, Yang Tong had to announce that Yuan Wendu, Lu Chu and others were plotting rebellion, and Wang Shichong was appointed as the left servant of Shangshu because of his meritorious service in saving the driver, and he was in charge of the government and the military outside.

Since then, Wang Shichong has been in charge of the Eastern Capital and has reached the pinnacle of his life.

Of course, the transfer of power is often always undercurrent, and Wang Shichong's ascension to the throne means the demise of the power of Yuan Wendu, and the bureaucrats who did not pay enough attention to Wang Shichong before finally tasted the bitter fruits.

Wang Shichong made new appointments to civil and military officials in order to maximize his power.

After imprisoning the members of the mission sent by Wagang, Wang Shichong was also silently preparing to strike a counterattack against the Wagang army.

The Wagang army is like Wang Shichong's old enemy, and now it is still like a fish in the throat, Wang Shichong wants to replace Yang Tong, the premise is to defeat the Wagang army.

But the current Wagang Army is too strong, and Wang Shichong's only chance of winning is only when he waits for the Wagang Army and the Jiangdu Army to fight, so that he can really benefit!

To his astonishment, such an opportunity came so quickly that he was not even prepared for it, and the opportunity was fleeting.

On the night when Duan Da sent a letter to Wang Shichong, a general of the Wagang Army who offended Cheng Yanjin defected to Yu Wenhua's army with a few soldiers overnight, and revealed the secret of Li Mi and Yu Wenhua's signing of the armistice agreement.

After Yu Wenhua learned about this plan, he was stupid at the time, "Li Mi delayed the plan to support the grain, and there is really a reason, the problem is that the remaining grain and grass are only used for two days, what should I do?" ”

Yuwen Zhiji obviously knew Jiang Dujun's current situation, and thought for a long time before he spit out these words, "What should I do?" Ask Li Mi for food."

"If you ask Li Mi for food, then you have to give it to him." Yu Wenhua watched his brother slowly say these words, and his eyes were red in a hurry.

When the food is exhausted, the soldiers are scattered, this is the moment of life and death!

Yuwen Zhihe rolled his eyes at the single-celled brother, and said depressedly, "Of course you can't write to him this time, let the soldiers prepare for battle, whether they live or die in this battle!" ”

Yu Wenhua finally understood what his brother meant, but he still had some video about fighting Li Mi, after all, he really lost more than he won some time ago; Although there are more than 100,000 Xiaoguo troops on his side, he is really strong in the outside!

If it weren't for the fear of fighting Li Mi, Yu Wenhua would not have chosen to stop the war and obtain food by begging, but would have rushed directly to the Wagang position to grab food

Yu Wenhua and the brothers have decided on the two plans, on the one hand, they ordered people to gather soldiers, and on the other hand, they ordered people to report their combat deployment to Yang Shanhui; Although Yang Shanhui has always been lukewarm to himself before, he believes that he will not sit idly by for the sake of a common goal.

Yang Shanhui has no surplus food, and he can't consume it.

Instead of slowly going to death, it is better to put it to death and live later, and fighting against the Wagang Army is the only way out!

Two hours later, Fan Wenchao led 10,000 Jiangdu Counties to cross the Yongji Canal under the order of Yu Wenhua, and built a bridgehead on the river beach on the west bank of the canal, which meant that the battle between the Jiangdu Army and the Wagang Army kicked off again.

The first enemy Fan Wenchao had to face was Hao Xiaode.

Hao Xiaode led the people to rise up against the Sui in the plains in the ninth year of his great cause, and in just a few months, tens of thousands of people gathered; He formed an alliance with Wang Bo, Sun Xuanya and others to attack Zhangqiu, but was defeated by the Sui general Zhang Xutuo.

After Li Mi followed Yang Xuangan to rebel and failed, he once defected to Hao Xiaode.

But Hao Xiaode didn't bird him at all, and didn't even give him a bite of food, and it was recorded in the history books that Li Mi was "prepared for hunger, until he peeled the bark and ate", which was miserable enough.

Unexpectedly, Feng Shui took turns, Hao Xiaode's forces were first defeated by Zhang Xutuo, and then dispersed by Yang Yichen, so he had no choice but to defect to the Wagang Army, and returned to Li Mi's account.

Li Mi didn't care about old grievances, and proposed to make Hao Xiaode the Duke of Pingyuan.

Hao Xiaode is a person who has been a leader in the end, and he really feels shameless in the face of the people who have been ridiculed that day; But he now has neither land nor food, and if he wants to leave the Wagang Army and find another way out, he really doesn't just want to go.

When the Wagang rebel general disappeared, Li Mi activated an emergency plan and ordered all localities to hold their positions in case of a surprise attack by the Jiangdu army.

Hao Xiaode obviously also received a secret order from Li Mi, but he relied on the Yongji Canal in front of him, thinking that it was impossible for the Jiangdu army to cross the river without alarming him.

How do you know that there are soldiers in the Jiangdu army who are proficient in water, and they give up their baggage and risk death to cross the Yongji Canal; After crossing the river, they violently cut down trees on the riverbank to build temporary fortifications.

When Hao Xiaode heard that the Jiangdu army had crossed the river and gathered his troops to rush to the river, he found that there were already several more pontoon bridges on the river.

These Jiangdu troops who crossed the river had long been told that there was no food in the army, and after crossing the river, they fought against the water, and when they faced the swarming Hao Xiaode army, they naturally had only the choice of fighting to the death.

The so-called mourning soldiers will win, and the Jiangdu army fights bravely without fear of life and death; Hao Xiaode's department was at a loss in the face of the sudden toughness, and did not make any progress for half a day.

When more and more Jiangdu troops crossed the river from pontoon bridges to the west bank, Hao Xiaode's army collapsed as a matter of course

And at this time, the morning sun has just risen.

When he got the news that the Jiangdu army crossed the river, Hao Xiaode was still in a stalemate with them, and Li Mi had already spread the news that the Jiangdu army might be attacking, so he didn't think it was bad news about their arrival.

When the tent was raised in the morning, Li Mi also said to the soldiers with a smile, "The Jiangdu army has begun to cross the river, and they are probably short of food again. ”

Zu Junyan immediately echoed, "When Yu Wenhua and left Jiangdu, they didn't bring too much food, if it weren't for the fact that they had too many deserters, it is estimated that they would have been short of food a long time ago; After our grain and grass were sent over, he thought that he had no worries, and he didn't know how to be thrifty, and probably now he has exhausted the grain stored from Jiangdu. Wei Gong's clever plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle is really clever. ”

"Haha, in fact, it's really a bit troublesome for us to send them food, if they want to eat well, it's also a good choice to come to us as a prisoner." Li Mi smiled and nodded, he was also very satisfied that he was able to come up with such a plan.

Because of the existence of the unstable factor in the Eastern Capital, Li Mi has the idea of seeking cooperation with Yu Culture, but is this plan really perfect?

Yang Shanhui didn't think so.
