The crisis has exploded, and the key to defeating the opponent in the crisis is to analyze and deduce the opponent's purpose and the relevant arrangements made to achieve the goal, and then have a targeted and targeted countermeasure to counterattack.

Yang Tong, the king of Yue, and Fan Zigai and other central ministers used limited information, tried their best to analyze and deduce, after some fierce discussion and debate, and finally reached a consensus, Yang Xuan moved the purpose of the mutiny was to change the imperial unity, so he must fight the eastern capital, and he will have the "capital" to bargain with Xijing after taking the eastern capital, just wait for the two sides to reach an agreement on the selection of the new emperor and the interests of the government, and then work together, with Guan Long as the backing, with the Central Plains as the battlefield, and the Holy Lord and his supporters to fight to the death.

As a result, targeted countermeasures are also on the horizon.

First of all, he held on to the Eastern Capital at any cost, as long as he held on for two months, the Holy Lord and the expeditionary force would be able to return to the Eastern Capital from the Liaodong battlefield, and the balance of strength between the two sides would change rapidly, and the situation would be reversed immediately. And Yang Xuangan couldn't take the eastern capital for a long time, and he couldn't establish his own advantages for a long time, and the negotiations with Xijing were inconclusive, and when the shape was about to be reversed, Xijing would definitely change his course, resolutely abandon Yang Xuangan, and support the Holy Lord with a clear banner, so Yang Xuangan was over, and the storm was basically over.

Second, at any cost, prevent Yang Lan, the king of Qi, and Yang Yu, the acting king, from entering the battlefield of the Eastern Capital. This goal seems to be too difficult to achieve at present, Yang Xuangan surrounded the Eastern Capital, and the Eastern Capital army was trapped in the city, counting on Xingyang's Xun King Yang Qing and Xingyang's Governor Cui Baode will definitely not be able to stop the fierce Qi King Yang Lan, and counting on Zheng Yuanshou, the Duke of Xinguo who looks forward and backward, will not be able to stop the powerful Xijing army, so if nothing else, Qi King Yang Lan and Acting King Yang Yu will enter the Eastern Capital battlefield, and once they enter the Eastern Capital Battlefield, the nature of this storm will quickly change from a military coup to an imperial war.

Of course, Yang Lan, the king of Qi, and Yang Yu, the acting king, are not simple-minded "horsemen" with four limbs, and there are many wise men around them, so they will definitely not rumble into the eastern capital like a crazy wild bull, but have to wait for a suitable and proper time to ensure the best time to seize profits. In the eyes of the Eastern Capital, this opportunity must be the moment when Yang Xuangan captured the Eastern Capital. At that moment, Yang Xuangan basically controlled the Eastern Capital, and it was only a matter of time before he swept the Central Plains, so he had the capital to fight against the Holy Lord, and he also had the capital to exchange interests with the major political forces. At that moment, whether it was the king of Qi entering Beijing, or the king of acting in Beijing, in fact, he could not decide his fate and the future situation of the exhibition, it was Xijing who really controlled the fate of Middle-earth, if Xijing was willing to support Yang Lan, the king of Qi, Yang Lan would get his wish, on the contrary, if Xijing supported Yang Yu, the acting king, and Yang Xuangan joined forces to strangle Yang Lan, the king of Qi, Yang Lan fell into vain, neither won the throne, nor could he win the trust of the holy lord, and finally could only rely on the force in his hand to burn all the opponents and die.

Therefore, from the analysis of the situation of Yang Lan, the king of Qi, the king of Qi is either a little bolder, takes a risk, rumbles into the battlefield of the Eastern Capital, first joins forces with Yang Xuangan to capture the Eastern Capital, and first binds himself and Yang Xuangan firmly together, so that Xijing is passive; Either be timid, cautious and cautious, look at it again, endure it again and again, and wait until Yang Xuangan and Xijing reach an agreement on the selection of the new emperor, and decide to put him on the throne of the emperor, and he will enter Beijing again, so that he will take the initiative, and the benefits will be more than expected.

So, what choice will King Qi make in the end? Dongdu analysis believes that the King of Qi has lost the trust of the Holy Lord, in view of the conservative position of the King of Qi's government, the possibility of expecting the Holy Lord to give him another chance is very small, coupled with the self-righteousness, arrogance, and ambitious character of the King of Qi and his unauthorized "escape" from the Dongdu Ju outreach and even blackmailing the Holy Lord by force and a series of "rebellious" actions, as well as his relationship with Li Zixiong is enough to prove that he has nothing to do with this military coup, he cannot prove his innocence, and those who follow him, Closely tied to his future, such as Wei Fusi, Li Hun, Dong Chun and other high-level military and political magnates can only fight to the death for their own interests, and many other facts can be combined to draw a clear conclusion, the king of Qi is cornered, he has no choice, only to rush into the battlefield of the eastern capital without hesitation, swear to the death, use the knife in his hand to seize the imperial unity, to win his own survival, to create his own future.

In this way, it will be more difficult to hold on to the eastern capital. With the current garrison strength of the Eastern Capital, coupled with the strong city defense of the Eastern Capital, even if someone in the city responds to Yang Xuangan, as long as several high-level political forces work together to resist a Yang Xuangan, there is still a certain certainty that he will hold on for two months, but if the Eastern Capital's analysis of King Qi is accurate, and the King of Qi is like a crazy wild bull, rumbling over, then the pressure on the Eastern Capital is not only military, but also political. Under the dual pressure of military and political pressure, a large number of powerful people in the city who did not have a firm stance were likely to turn to support the king of Qi and defect one after another, so the eastern capital would inevitably collapse.

After midnight, Shangshudu Province fell into a dead silence again.

Now it seems that Yang Gongren still has the foresight, or he knows some secrets, he predicted from the beginning that this storm is very likely to turn into a great battle for the emperor, so he will do his best to prevent Yang Lan, the king of Qi, and Yang Yu, the acting king, from entering the battlefield of the eastern capital, for which he did not hesitate to seize the military power of the guard, trying to control the garrison of the eastern capital, and put the main force of the garrison in the two directions of Xingyang and Tongguan, but it fell short, he failed, and he was charged with seizing military power, of course, this crime may not be put to death, But it will definitely destroy his otherwise brilliant future.

Fortunately, Yang Gongren is not an ordinary person, and he did not lose his heart at the critical moment, nor did he throw away with his will, but continued to do his best to save the Eastern Capital

"If the King of Qi advances into Beijing, will Xijing follow closely and enter the battlefield of the Eastern Capital?" Fan Zigai was the first to break the silence and asked Yang Gongren.

"Xijing is not monolithic, it is also a plate of loose sand, compared with the eastern capital, the game in Xijing is more complicated, more intense, more chaotic, sometimes even suffocating, and despairing." Yang Gongren shook his hand and said, "What is especially important is that in this storm, Xijing's position directly determines the success or failure of the mutiny, so Xijing must wait until the shape is basically clear, that is, the Eastern Capital has fallen, Yang Xuangan can already fight against the Holy Lord according to the Central Plains, and has made a political compromise to Xijing, Xijing can ensure its own interests and basically win the battle, it will enter the Eastern Capital and openly support Yang Xuangan." ”

"If Xijing will not enter the Eastern Capital battlefield for the time being, then our opponents are only King Qi and Yang Xuangan." Fan Zigai said, "In this case, we must strengthen the defense of the eastern capital as quickly as possible, and fill the two national warehouses of Hanjia and Huiluo in the shortest possible time to ensure the needs of the army and people in the city, and at the same time concentrate all the garrisons in the city to fight against the water." ”

As soon as Yang Gongren heard it, he understood the meaning behind Fan Zigai's words, Fan Zigai was scared, and wanted to shrink the defense and withdraw all the troops into the city, but this was an extremely irresponsible attitude. Yang Xuan moved that this military coup could not be a temporary idea, it must have been planned for many years, there must be many allies, there must be careful deployment, and his manpower is all over the city and outside the city, if it is not screened and prevented, it will be taken advantage of by villains, and the eastern capital will be lost.

"The soldiers are fine, not many." Yang Gongren said with a pun, "The key to whether you can hold the eastern capital is not the number of troops, but the unity of the people." "The hearts of the people are not aligned, each has its own thoughts, and even the black hand stabs the knife in the back, no matter how strong the city is, it will change hands in an instant, on the contrary, the hearts of the people are united, Mount Tai moves, with the strong will of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the eastern capital, not to mention holding on for two months, it is not a problem to hold on for two years.

Fan Zigai bowed slightly, agreed with what Yang Gongren said, and immediately proposed to build yì, "The soldiers are divided into two routes, Guan Gong commands the garrison outside the city to block the rebels, and a certain arrests all those who have a close relationship with Yang Xuangan, Li Zixiong, Wang Zhongbo and other rebels in the city, regardless of men, women and children, relatives and friends, protégés and former officials, all of them are detained in case of accidents." ”

After Yang Gongren pondered for a while, he turned his eyes to Yang Hao, Cui Zhen, Yuan Wendu, Wei Jin, Wei Yunqi, Dugusheng and other military and political officials, and asked for their opinions, after all, there are too many nobles and bureaucrats in the Eastern Capital, and they will affect the whole body, coupled with the opaque information, rumors are flying all over the sky, and they will arrest people and even arrest some high-ranking officials involved, the consequences are really unpredictable, and it may lead to a catastrophic riot.

"Bring troops into the city." Dugu Sheng said categorically, "The imperial city and the palace city are in charge of a certain army, and Li Gongting's army is transferred to Beiguo, and Fei Yao's army is transferred to Nanguo. ”

Fan Zigai was not happy when he heard it, why didn't he transfer Zhou Zhong's army into the city? This is obviously "greasy", and it is deliberately setting up obstacles for me to catch people, how can it be reasonable

"Mobilize Zhou Zhong's army into Nanguo." Fan Zigai's expression was stern, and his tone was tough and non-negotiable.

Dugu Sheng sneered, waved his hand, and categorically vetoed, "Zhou Zhong is a Jiangzuo person, use Jiangzuo people to arrest Guan Longren, have you thought about the consequences?" Do you want the Eastern Capital to be covered with corpses and rivers of blood? ”

"Zhou Zhong is from Jiangzuo, but the guards under Zhou Zhong's account are all from Guanzhong and Heluo, which is also a fact." Fan Zigai argued on the basis of reason and refused to back down.

Dugu Sheng scoffed, and Leng Sensen threatened, "If you are willing to bear all possible consequences, even including the fall of the Eastern Capital, I will fully support it." ”

Fan Zigai was speechless, he was not afraid of Dugu Sheng, but worried that someone would do it behind his back, once the Eastern Capital was in chaos or even a riot, the corpses were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river, if Yang Xuan didn't move his hands, the Eastern Capital itself would fall, and it would be captured by the rioting nobles and bureaucrats, and he couldn't afford this responsibility.

"The situation in the Eastern Capital has deteriorated rapidly, the Grand Canal has been interrupted, and the Eastern Crusade is no longer sustainable. Fan Zigai stopped arguing, and changed the topic, "The matter has come to this point, if we continue to conceal it and not report it, we will be held accountable in the future." ”

Wei Jin glanced at him and asked, "Did you see Yang Xuangan outside the Eastern Capital?" Or did you see the rebels under the banner of Yang Xuangan? ”

Fan Zigai was furious, and couldn't help but want to curse, I have met your requirements, and I have deliberately concealed some important contents in the daily report to the Holy Lord, but now that the crisis in the Eastern Capital has completely exploded, and the Eastern Crusade is unsustainable, if I continue to conceal it, it may endanger the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the expeditionary force. Whether it is tolerable or unbearable, I will play it truthfully, I want to see if you have the courage to deliberately prevent me from reporting to the Holy Lord, but then I thought that these people are vicious and do everything they can, and they really turned their faces, and they even did things like murder and destruction of books.

Fan Zigai endured it, looked at Wei Jin, and asked, "Duke Wuyang, do you want to hide it from Xijing?" ”

This was purely provocative, but it still had some effect, and the eyes of Yang Gongren, Cui Zhen, Yuan Wendu and others suddenly turned to Wei Jin.

Wei Jin stood up and gave a deep salute to Yang Tong, the king of Yue, "King, the eastern capital is in danger, and the minister is willing to rush to Xijing for help." ”
