Chapter 510 The Great War Resumes
In the first year of Emperor Tai of the Great Sui Dynasty, in the second year of Yining, in July, Wang Shichong, the king of Zheng, who supported Yang Qing, the king of Xun, suddenly issued a document to the world, saying that Wanhe, the king of Liang who occupied Luoyang, was the same party of the culture of killing the king and rebelling against the thief! And led 60,000 Jianghuai soldiers to attack Luoyang! And immediately afterwards, Dou Jiande, a bandit who has always dominated one side in Hebei, also suddenly announced to the world that he was loyal to Yang Qing, and was canonized by Yang Qing as the King of Xia, the general of Zuo Xiaowei, and the governor of the world! And Dou Jiande, who surrendered to Yang Qing, also led an army of 200,000 to combine with Wang Shichong's soldiers and horses to attack Luoyang!
As soon as this news came out, it immediately shocked the world, because the three forces involved in this news are all the most powerful forces in the world! Not to mention Wan He and Wang Shichong, just about Dou Jiande! Since the death of Gao Shida, the Duke of the East China Sea, Dou Jiande has collected the remnants of Gao Shida and gradually inherited all the strength of Gao Shida! And Dou Jiande is different from Gao Shida, Gao Shida at most collects those rebels who have taken refuge in him and regards them as his subordinates! However, Dou Jiande's methods are tougher, directly taking in those rebels who are willing to take refuge in themselves, and as for those who are unwilling to take refuge, they are all wiped out! In the past few years, Dou Jiande has become the number one force in the entire Hebei and Shandong, and there is no other opponent except Gao Kaidao! If it weren't for Youzhou veteran Xue Shixiong going south, I'm afraid that Dou Jiande would have eliminated Gao Kaidao long ago!
The previous change in Jiangdu also made Dou Jiande and Gao Kaidao see the opportunity, and they crossed the Yellow River to the south, and Dou Jiande even pulled the main force out of Hebei and personally led the army south to Henan, leaving Luo Yi alone to fight with Xue Shixiong.
And the alliance between Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong has made the already chaotic situation in Henan more and more complicated! And Wang Shichong, who was originally in a weak position, was also immediately stronger than Wan He, and even a few points stronger than Li Yuan! Perhaps, it is precisely for this reason that there is no intention to respond to Wang Shichong's submission, whether it is Li Yuan or Gao Kaidao, who went south with Dou Jiande! But even so, Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande have nearly 260,000 horses in one place! This is not the 500,000 rabble in Wagangzhai before! These 260,000 troops have been divided into three roads and marched towards Luoyang!
It is in such a situation that a tense atmosphere in the Liang Wangfu in Luoyang City is also filled with the entire palace, and from time to time there are heavily armed sergeants entering and exiting the palace, and a cadre of Wan He's cronies has stayed in the Liang Wangfu for three or four consecutive days!
In the special conference hall, Wan He and his civil and military cronies were all frowning, thinking about the current predicament! The eldest grandson Wuji quickly raised his head and said, "Lord Wang! From this, it can be determined that the disappearance of King Yue definitely has a lot to do with Wang Shichong's dispatch of troops this time! And according to the information of Tianyinmen, there are many masters of Xiaoyaomen around Wang Shichong! I'm afraid that the robbery of King Yue was done by these masters of Xiaoyaomen! ”
Regarding the analysis of the eldest grandson Wuji, Wan He also slapped his fists with some annoyance, and said with a look of regret: "Tsk! I should have thought of this a long time ago! If you send someone to ask someone from Tianyinmen to be stationed in the Yue Wangfu earlier! Then Yang Tong can't run away! ”
"Lord Wang!" Li Jing also stood up immediately, knelt on the ground with his fists in front of Wan He, and shouted with guilt on his face: "The last general did not do things well, and asked the prince to condemn him!" The last will be punished! ”
It is Li Jing who is responsible for the guard of the Yue Palace, and this time Yang Tong escaped, of course, the biggest responsibility is Li Jing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and heard Li Jing say this, but Wan He waved his hand, shook his head and said, "Pharmacist!" I didn't think it through this matter, and it has nothing to do with you! All right! Yang Tong, this kid just ran away, and it was no big deal! Get up! Now is not the time to hold accountable! The top priority should be to find a way to deal with the combined forces of Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande! ”
After some persuasion, Li Jing stood up and returned to his seat, but Li Jing had secretly made up his mind in his heart that he must arrest Yang Tong back! Make amends for your mistakes this time!
At this time, Qin Qiong frowned, and said to Wan He: "Lord Wang, the last general thinks that this King Yue should still be in Luoyang City!" ”
"Ugh!" Wan He, who had already let go of this matter, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Qin Qiong say this, but he looked at Qin Qiong with some incomprehension, and didn't understand why Qin Qiong said that. That Yang Tong finally escaped from the Yue Wangfu, why don't you escape quickly and stay in Luoyang, are you waiting to be arrested!
But before Wan He could ask questions, Du Ruhui, who had been silent beside him, also suddenly said: "Lord Wang! The subordinates also agreed with General Qin's idea! That Wang Shichong has already established King Xun as the emperor! Even if King Yue ran to Wang Shichong's hands, it didn't make any sense! Others may still need the name of King Yue to set up a name, but Wang Shichong doesn't need it! There is only one purpose for Wang Shichong to rescue King Yue, that is, to rely on King Yue's connections in Luoyang to make trouble for the prince in secret! Even when Wang Shichong's army presses the border, the inside and the outside should be together! ”
As soon as Du Ruhui analyzed this, several other people also nodded in agreement, and Wan He was even more frightened into a cold sweat by the last possibility that Du Ruhui said! If this is really the case, then Luoyang is really dangerous! And Liu Wenjing's eyes lit up at the same time, and said, "Lord Wang! What Lord Du said is extremely true! The whereabouts of Wei Jin, Huangfu Wuyi and others, who were investigated by the prince before, also show that there seems to be one person above these people who is manipulating all this! It's just that the people under Yang Gongqing are all gangsters, but there are not many masters, and at every critical moment, they are all escaped by the other party! Perhaps, this person who manipulates Wei Jin and Huangfu Wuyi is the king of Yue! ”
Hearing Liu Wenjing say this, Wan He's heart is getting colder and colder! I thought that this Luoyang was already completely controlled by myself! But he didn't expect that there was such a behind-the-scenes hand behind, and the more Wan He thought about it, the more furious he became, and even shouted in a deep voice: "No!" It can't go on like this! Quiet! Close the net now! Arrest Wei Jin and the others! As for the other party's masters, I will contact the masters of Tianyinmen to help! ”
"Lord Wang! No! Hearing Wan He's sudden order, Liu Wenjing's face showed a hint of joy, but Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were startled, Fang Xuanling hurriedly shouted: "Wei Jin, Huangfu Wuyi and others are all important ministers in the court, and they are quite famous!" They're not moving now! The prince rashly did something to them, just afraid that it would cause a lot of discussion among the government and the opposition! Coupled with the current situation, it is bound to make people's hearts fluctuate! Please think twice! ”
Du Ruhui also meant the same thing, and his words to persuade Wan He were similar, but this time, there were few people who supported them, and even the eldest grandson Wuji raised his eyebrows and did not speak. Wan He originally listened to the persuasion of the two people, and was still a little hesitant, but now seeing the reactions of several other people, he has strengthened his determination! However, Wan He did not show his willfulness, at least he had to convince Fang Xuanling and Du Ruxuan! So Wan He swept around the crowd, and finally fixed his eyes on the eldest grandson Wuji, and said: "Wuji! Do you think I shouldn't do it? ”
Seeing that Wan He actually named himself, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he still stood up and said, "Lord Wang! The subordinates think that it is appropriate for the prince to do it at this time! Perhaps, he can also catch the escaped King Yue in one fell swoop! ”
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui didn't expect that the eldest grandson Wuji, who had always stood on the united front with him, would make such a choice this time, and they couldn't help but be surprised! However, both of them were rare wise men in the world, and they soon began to look down and think about issues that they had not considered before. And the eldest grandson Wuji also continued: "Actually, it's just as Keming and Qiao Song said! Now rashly arresting Wei Jin, Huangfu Wuyi and others will inevitably provoke the hearts of the people in Luoyang! Presumably, King Yue will also take this into account, and it is even very likely that King Yue saw this point, so he would be so bold to contact Wei Jin and Huangfu Wuyi at this time! If the prince does the opposite, he will inevitably catch King Yue off guard, and he will hit with one blow! As for the fluctuation of people's hearts caused by this, with the prince's current power in the court, his subordinates think that there is no need to worry about it at all! Just press a few charges, and those jumping clowns can't afford to turn up any lang flowers at all! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji's words also made everyone nod their heads, and then Wan He said: "Of course, it's better to be safe!" So I decided, this time to deal with Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, we will no longer defend the city, but take the initiative to attack! ”
As soon as Wan He's last sentence came out, not to mention how the eldest grandson Wuji and other think tanks judged, Li Jing and other generals were excited one by one! As military generals, what could excite them more than fighting? Before dealing with the army of Wagangzhai, Wanhe's soldiers and horses were insufficient, and Wagangzhai had an army of 500,000, so there was no way but to defend the city! Now they have a full army of 160,000 under their command! Although the enemy still has a lot more soldiers and horses, the gap is not so big! Li Jing and the others are all masters of the art of war with armor in their chests, and they have the ability and confidence to repel the enemy! Immediately, Li Jing, Qin Qiong, the eldest grandson Hengan, and Pei Xingyan reacted the fastest, they stood up directly, and shouted at Wan He is fists: "Lord Wang! The last general is going to fight! ”
And immediately afterwards, Cheng Yanjin, Luo Shixin and others also reacted, and then stood up, and also hugged their fists at Wan He and shouted: "Lord Wang!" The last general is going to fight! ”
