Located in the southwest of the Eastern Capital, the Palace is a large-scale royal garden, which not only provides a place for leisure and hunting for the Holy Lord and dignitaries, but also has an important function of garrisoning and military drills. During the extraordinary period, the Gyeonggi garrison could take advantage of the favorable terrain of Hyeongin Palace to establish a solid defensive line on the periphery of the eastern capital.

At present, Li Hun, the general of the Right Xiaowei, placed his headquarters on the east bank of Luoshui, and the elite army under his tent was deployed on the front line of Hyeongin Palace, while the garrison troops from the east of Gyeonggi were deployed on both sides of Yishui, forming a half-moon-shaped blocking battle array.

Li Hun put on a passive defensive posture, which made the Eastern Capital angry. The reason why the situation in the eastern capital deteriorated rapidly was directly related to the military's capriciousness in the garrison strategy, the initial east had to actively defend, to go out of Beijing to suppress thieves, the military vetoed, and then Yique fell, the military's attitude came to a subversive turn, to actively defend, to go out of Beijing to suppress thieves, how did this come out, Wu Yalang will Han Shige was wiped out under the mouth of Yique, so the military overturned its own decision, and the defense strategy changed from positive to negative, so repeatedly, how can there be no reason to be invincible?

Fan Zigai, who was left behind in the eastern capital, could not bear it anymore, and in the name of Yang Tong, the king of Yue, he issued a stern warning to the military, and threatened Li Hun, the general of the Right Xiaowei, that if the Wei government could not defeat the anti-thieves in the shortest possible time, recover Yique, and stabilize the Gyeonggi defense line, then the resulting consequences would be borne by the military.

On behalf of Yang Tong, the king of Yue, and Fan Zigai, who was left behind, they rushed to the Xianren Palace and conveyed the warnings and threats of the central government to the Wei Mansion to Li Hun, the general of the right Xiaowei, and at the same time urged and supervised Li Hun to immediately attack Yique.

The reason why Yang Tong, the king of Yue, and Fan Zigai, who stayed behind, "invited" Wei Jin and Wei Yunqi, two central officials, to put pressure on the military and communicate with the military was because Wei Jin, Wei Yunqi, and Li Hun were all the pillars of the local aristocratic group in Guanlong, and they were all the backbone of this political group, and their political interests were completely consistent with the political goals, and on the other hand, they also expressed their tough stance to Xijing, so as to test and warn Xijing.

Li Hun was a little surprised when he saw Wei Jin and Wei Yunqi coming together, and he didn't know what had happened in Dongdu, but Yang Tong, the king of Yue, and Fan Zigai, who stayed behind, not only had confidence and courage, but also suddenly hardened their attitude towards Xijing and the military.

Wei Jin answered Li Hun's doubts, "An Changgong (Yuan Wendu) has made a move. ”

"Fei Yao wants to come back?" Li Hun frowned, and said with a solemn expression, "In this way, the Cui family compromised. Do you know what Cui's got in exchange for Yuan's cooperation? ”

"The responsibility of the Yue Wangfu is borne by the Cui family." Wei Yunqi stroked his beard and sighed, "Cui's move is good, the killing is decisive, and the retreat in the face of difficulties is unexpected."

"We underestimated the Cui family, and we never expected that at the critical moment, the Cui family would have the courage of a strong man to break his arm, and resolutely abandon the king of Yue and leave, but in this way, our plan was destroyed and our deployment was disrupted." Wei Jin stroked his hair and sighed, "An Changgong (Yuan Wendu) made a move, Fei Yao returned to the Eastern Capital, the Yuan family and the eight surnamed Xungui supported the King of Yue, and the shape of the Eastern Capital suddenly changed, and the biggest profit was Fan Zigai." ”

In order to protect his own interests to the greatest extent, Cui Zhen must first ensure the safety of the Eastern Capital, but the Xianbei people can use it, but they are not trustworthy, so after winning the cooperation of the Xianbei people, Cui Zhen will inevitably form an alliance with Fan Zigai, and unite the power of Fan Zigai to jointly fight against the Xianbei people, and if Fan Zigai wants to hold the Eastern Capital, he not only needs to unite all the forces that can be united, but also always firmly control the supreme power, and all Fan Zigai also needs Cui Zhen's cooperation, so the two sides hit it off, so far Fan Zigai has great power. The Eastern Capital is finally well deserved.

Li Hun secretly sighed bitterly. In the special way of "cutting off one's arm", the Cui's reformists represented by Fan Zigai, the Xianbei Xungui clique represented by Yuanwendu, and the Shandong people represented by Cui's took advantage of a special period to form a temporary political alliance, and then held high the banner of Yang Tong, the king of Yue, and made concerted efforts to jointly seek the political interests of "sticking to the eastern capital", so that "sticking to the eastern capital" became impossible and possible, and from hopeless to predictable. This will inevitably change the analysis and prediction of the political situation of the eastern capital in the future of the major political forces in the two capitals, and will certainly affect and even determine the political choices of the many political forces in the two capitals at critical moments.

What is the choice of the majority of political forces? Undoubtedly, after watching for a while, seeing that the eastern capital could indeed hold on, it would inevitably fall to Yang Tong, the king of Yue, so there were more and more supporters of the king of Yue, and the eastern capital became more and more solid, and the fate of the mutineers in the end can be imagined.

"What is Cui's purpose?" Li Hun couldn't understand it for a while, and he didn't know why the Cui family wanted to "cut off one arm", which is not in line with the style of the wealthy family, and he will lose money and not make money, this kind of stupid thing Cui will do?

Wei Jin and Wei Yunqi looked at each other speechlessly. If the purpose of the Cui family is to safeguard the overall interests of the Shandong people and do everything possible to protect the Shandong people from harm in the political liquidation after the crisis, then how can the private interests of the Cui family be protected? Cui Hongsheng was the ambassador of Hebei's arrest, but Yang Xuangan and a large number of mutineers raised troops to rebel on his "territory", and Cui Hongsheng obviously could not escape the blame. The same is true of Cui Zhen, he failed to fulfill his duty of assistance, and the severe consequences caused by the crisis in the Eastern Capital were enough to knock him to hell. The two pillars of the Bolingcui clan have fallen, which is an unbearable burden for the wealthy family that has already fallen into decline.

"In that case, we're going to settle for the next best thing." Li Hun took the initiative to change the topic and did not explore the secrets behind the changes in the political situation in the Eastern Capital for the time being.

"You have to settle for the next best." Wei Jin Zhengse said, "It is only a matter of time before Yuan Hongji leaves the northwest, and as far as the current northwest shape is concerned, even if he tries his best, he will not be able to make a wave in the northwest, that is to say, our own interests have been ensured, and the next thing is to find a way to do everything we can to loot the eastern capital." ”

Wei Yunqi followed up and said, "This storm is unavoidable, once in a lifetime, but unfortunately the opponent's chess is superior, causing us to lose the opportunity to occupy the Eastern Capital, so we have no choice, we must form an absolute suppression of the Eastern Capital after the storm is over, only in this way, we can achieve our goal in the future, and if we want to achieve absolute suppression of the Eastern Capital, we must use this storm to loot the Eastern Capital and turn the Eastern Capital into a ruin." ”

Li Hun frowned slightly, his eyes showing excitement. This storm will turn the eastern capital into ruins in the true sense of the word, and once the eastern capital loses its central position in the political capital, it will also declare the complete loss of the authority of the holy lord and the reformers, and announce that the radical reform marked by the soil capital Luoyang will inevitably fail, and Xijing, which has a history and political tradition, will surely rebuild its position as the core of power and once again become the political and cultural center of Middle Earth. The ensuing huge political interests, immeasurable power and wealth will also become the "things in the pocket" of the Guanlong people

"The King of Qi has arrived in Lu County and is preparing for it." Li Hun said with a smile, "The king of Qi is in the east, the king of Dai is in the west, we are the internal response, the east and the west are attacked, the inside and the outside are combined, the storm is getting more and more intense, and the east capital will become a ruin." ”

Hearing the words "King Qi", Wei Jin and Wei Yunqi's faces did not change, but their eyes showed dissatisfaction. Obviously, Li Hun did not change his original intention, and still supported the King of Qi, and at the critical moment he suddenly threw out "King Qi", which meant "rich", and in the eyes of Wei Jin and Wei Yunqi, Li Hun was blackmailing, coercing, and threatening, which made people angry.

"The battle for imperial dominance has always been bloody and cruel, thrilling." Wei Jin said quietly, "King Qi is a lesson for us丨 Bloody lesson丨 Wei Shi has paid a heavy price for this, if we want to go smoothly in the future, not only must we learn the lessons of the past, but we must not repeat the mistakes of the past." ”

Li Hun's smile did not change, but there was a trace of gloom and disdain in his eyes. Wei Jin's answer was very tactful and subtle, but each word clearly conveyed a clear message that Wei was determined to give up King Qi and would never make the same mistake twice with the same person.

After Li Hun groaned for a while, he said slowly, "Since this is the case, the shape is complicated. ”

"It's complicated." Wei Yunqi heard the tentative meaning in Li Hun's words, and without hesitation, he said resolutely, "We want to use this storm to destroy the Eastern Capital, if the King of Qi forcibly breaks into the Eastern Capital regardless of the consequences, there will be only one result." ”

Li Hun's smile gradually converged, and the gloom in his eyes became more intense, "What result?" ”

"What is the purpose of King Qi's forcible invasion of the Eastern Capital? In the name of counterinsurgency, it is to suppress thieves, and it is to prove his loyalty, but in fact, he uses meritorious service to increase his authority and maintain his position as a descendant with great righteousness. ”

"What you can think of, King Qi can think of too." Li Hun sneered, "King Qi is not so ignorant as to kill himself. ”

Wei Yunqi laughed, with a look of disdain, "In that case, what is the purpose of King Qi's westward expansion?" Is it to suppress the rebellion and suppress the thieves, or to add fuel to the fire? Or take advantage of the fire to rob, fall into the well, and extort? Obviously, as long as he leaves Qilu, he will kill himself. ”

Li Hun was angry, and couldn't help but sneer, "In this way, the king of Qi is standing still in Qilu, watching the fire from the other side, protecting himself, ignoring the safety of the eastern capital, and ignoring the danger of Guozuo, but it is a wise move?" ”

"If he turns a blind eye in Qilu, he will also kill himself."

Li Hun laughed angrily, "In your opinion, King Qi is a dead man. ”

Wei Yunqi nodded solemnly, "As you said." ”

Wei Jin wasted no time in adding, "That's why we gave up on him." ”

Li Hun sneered, "Will King Qi be restrained?" ”

"Of course King Qi is dying." Wei Yunqi said, "That's why he won't let go of any chance to survive, but so far, he hasn't seen the slightest hope." ”

"Gong, we must face up to reality." Wei Jin advised, "It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen, if this is the will of heaven, how can manpower return to heaven?" ”

Li Hun's face was gloomy and he hesitated.

"Gong, don't hesitate, immediately counterattack Yique." Wei Yunqi sighed, "Otherwise, if you give people a handle and tell the truth, you will be in great trouble." ”

Li Hun nodded slowly, "Shanmou will attack immediately." ”
