Chapter 097: Siege and Interception
"Henchman?" Zhang Tongyou sneered: "General Qiu, tell the truth!" As the chief general of the Tianwei Army, Du Qianyun caused 10,000 horses to collapse and the Chang'an barrier was lost! Such a big crime of losing the opportunity, even if he returns to Chang'an alive, the prime minister will not be able to spare him! Moreover, the prime minister had already reported to the emperor that Du Qianyun, the commander of the Tianwei army, was killed by Bu Yunfei, and the emperor issued an order to allow the prime minister to mobilize the Shence army out of the city to go to Bashang and besiege Bu Yunfei. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf Du Qianyun is still alive, wouldn't the Prime Minister have to bear the crime of bullying the king! You must know that mobilizing the Shence army out of the city without authorization is not only a bully, but also an accomplice to the crime! What's more, Du Qianyun exploited the soldiers on the ba, which was originally deserved! ”
In the Tang military system, the regular army of the imperial court was divided into two major systems - the forbidden army and the government soldiers, and the border army under the Jiedu envoy was actually not a regular army, but a "righteous servant". The forbidden army is the emperor's private army, and the government army is the national army. What the prime minister can mobilize is the government soldiers, and he can't mobilize the forbidden army at will, and the only one who can mobilize the forbidden army is the emperor! At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the forbidden army and the government soldiers were the elite of the country, and by the time of Tianbao, these two systems had all declined. The government soldiers are already in name only, the prime minister actually has no soldiers to adjust, and the so-called twelve guards in the capital are just empty shelves. The forbidden army is neatly armed, but in fact it is an embroidered pillow, which is useless. Despite this, the forbidden army still has soldiers and generals. If Yang Guozhong wants to intercept and kill Bu Yunfei, he can only use the forbidden army, that is, the Shence army. And to mobilize the Shence army, there must be a good reason and get the emperor's approval.
This is also Yang Guozhong, if he changes someone else, he wants to mobilize the Shence Army, he can't even think of it! First, there is Yang Yuhuan in the palace to blow the pillow wind to the emperor, and second, Yang Guozhong's forces have already infiltrated the Shence Army. Therefore, after Yang Guozhong got the news of Ba Shang, he could quickly dispatch the Shence army. Even so, if the emperor knew that what Yang Guozhong said was untrue, then Yang Guozhong would have to bear the great crime of bullying the king!
This is not an ordinary deception - Yang Guozhong moved the emperor's army, and its nature is even worse than An Lushan!
An Lushan rebelled, after all, he led his subordinates; And Yang Guozhong moved the Shence Army, which means that he directly threatens the emperor's safety!
Therefore, Bu Yunfei will die, and Du Qianyou will die!
"Understood!" Qiu Wenbo said, waved his hand, led his cavalry, and chased along the path.
Zhang Tongyou immediately led 800 gold-armored cavalry and followed Qiu Wenbo.
After a while, the cavalry ran out, and the road down the mountain was empty.
Chao Yongzhi looked at the empty road under the mountain, and exhaled: "Zhang Tongyou really escaped back to Chang'an!" Fortunately, the eldest brother had the foresight, if he went on the path, he would be ambushed! ”
Ba Yegu shouted: "Fall into his hands!" I think he fell into our hands! Zhang Tongyou sent him to the door, and we just happened to arrest him, but the eldest brother didn't let me make a move, and let him run away! ”
Cui Shuquan said: "Brother Baye, you didn't see him with eight hundred cavalry!" ”
"I'm afraid of a bird!" Baye Gu reprimanded: "Eight hundred cavalry, in the eyes of Lao Tzu, is eight hundred piles of dung!" ”
Bu Yunfei shook his head: "Zhang Tongyou's actions are not in bravery, but in resourcefulness!" The Shence army set up an ambush in the barracks of Bashang, which should be Zhang Tongyou's plan, and this trick to capture the old and indulge in it is very cleverly used! This person really deserves to be Yan Gaoqing's nephew, and his strategy is no less than Yan Gaoqing, and he must not be underestimated! It's a pity that this is so strategic, but it is not used in the right path! However, although Zhang Tongyou is cunning, he is also in the open, what I am worried about is that today's incident is too strange, behind Zhang Tongyou, I am afraid there are still people! ”
"Isn't Yang Guozhong behind him?" Baye Gu asked in a muffled voice.
Bu Yunfei shook his head: "It's not that simple. Didn't you hear, Zhang Tongyou said just now that it was Jiang Feng who reported that we had killed Du Qianyun. Only then did Yang Guozhong send the Shence army to Bashang to besiege us. People often say that the river demolishes the bridge, this Jiang Feng, why did he tear down the bridge before crossing the river? Moreover, it was Jiang Feng who wanted to kill Du Qianyou, but he just killed the wrong person and let Du Qianyou pick up a life, but he pushed the matter all on our heads, why is this? ”
"This is not simple, then Jiang Feng must be Zhang Tongyou's person!" Cui Shuquan said: "He was instructed by Zhang Tongyou to kill Du Qianyou and frame us!" ”
Chao Yongzhi shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not that simple!" Jiang Feng is a person from Xiping Wangfu, a close confidant of Wang Sili, who has always served in the Longyou army, and only recently came to Tongguan with Ge Shuhan from Longyou. Zhang Tongyou is a cloth cloth in Changshan City, he recently stole Yan Gaoqing's credit, so he soared and became a servant, and the two had no intersection before. How can Zhang Tongyou instruct Jiang Feng! ”
Bu Yunfei nodded: "Today's matter, the strange thing is here!" Jiang Feng can't be Zhang Tongyou's person, then, today he killed Du Qianyou, and then blamed us, and then let Zhang Tongyou take the Shence Army to kill us. All this can only be instructed by Wang Sili! ”
"Not bad!" Chao Yongzhi said: "The only one who can instruct Jiang Feng is Wang Sili!" ”
"But why did he do that?" Cui Shuquan asked, "This doesn't make sense." We helped him kill Yang Guozhong, but he, in turn, wanted to make a stumbling block behind our backs? If we had already killed Yang Guozhong, it would be okay for them to do so. But we haven't done it yet, have we? ”
Bu Yunfei said in a deep voice: "There is only one possibility!" ”
"What?"
"Wang Sili persuaded us to assassinate Yang Guozhong, it's fake!"
Everyone opened their mouths wide, and after a long time, Baye Gu said in a muffled voice: "It turns out that Wang Sili wants to harm us!" Let's go, let's go back to Tongguan and kill Wang Sili, the bastard! ”
Bu Yunfei shook his head: "If Wang Sili wants to harm us, he can succeed at any time when he is in Tongguan!" You must know that our identity is a traitor, and Wang Sili can justifiably arrest and behead us, but not only did he not do this, but instead concealed our identities for us and let us out of Tongguan. ”
Ba Ye Gu felt that his head was swollen: "Wang Sili on this dog day, with a belly full of flowers, has dizzy Lao Tzu's head!" ”
Chao Yongzhi sighed: "Wang Sili is good at strategy, this person is very deep in the city, and his thinking is extremely far-reaching!" No one could figure out what was going on in his mind. ”
Bu Yunfei sneered: "If you want to know what he wants, just look at what he wants!" ”
Chao Yongzhi said: "If Jiang Feng kills Du Qianyun, he will remove one of Wang Sili's opponents, this Du Qianyun exploited the soldiers in Tongguan, embezzled and took bribes, and the Tongguan soldiers hated him to the core, and Wang Sili was naturally no exception. Moreover, Du Qianyun is Yang Guozhong's cronies, Yang Guozhong and Ge Shuhan are also opponents, and Du Qianyun went to Tongguan to spy on Ge Shuhan on Yang Guozhong's orders. Jiang blocked Du Qianyou, which was to get rid of one of Yang Guozhong's minions. In my opinion, Wang Sili asked us to assassinate Yang Guozhong, and his real target was Du Qianyun. Therefore, Jiang Feng killed Yang San on the ba, thinking that he had killed Du Qianyun, so he went to report to Zhang Tongyou, and asked Zhang Tongyou to kill us again, so that there is no proof of death, Wang Sili can be wiped out, and Yang Guozhong can only suffer a dumb loss! ”
Bu Yunfei shook his head: "Chao Yongzhi's statement has a certain truth. However, with Wang Sili's shrewdness, how could he not see that Du Qianyou was just a wine bag and rice bag, and he could take such a big risk to kill a useless person? You must know that although Du Qianyun is useless, he is a lieutenant general in the Shence Army, and his grade is not low. If the news leaks out, the court will definitely not give up, once it is traced, not only Wang Sili will not be able to escape, but even Ge Shuhan will not end well! Wang Sili does this, the risk and return are completely disproportionate! ”
Chao Yongzhi nodded: "Yes, what Wang Sili wants to get must be much greater than the risk he has taken, otherwise, how can he take such a risk!" But what did he really want? ”
"Tianwei Army!" Bu Yunfei said in a deep voice.
Everyone was silent, and after a while, Chao Yongzhi reacted: "What the eldest brother said is right! Tianwei Army! That's what Wang Sili wants! ”
Baye Gu was still puzzled: "Big brother, you mean that Wang Sili wants to kill Du Qianyou to help Ge Shuhan annex the Tianwei Army!" But if that's the case, it's not right, Jiang blocked Yang San, and the soldiers of the Tianwei Army thought that they had killed Du Qianyou, but as a result, the whole army broke up, and they didn't get anything! ”
"Wang Sili doesn't want to annex the Tianwei Army at all!" Bu Yunfei said in a deep voice: "The Tianwei army broke away, which is the result that Wang Sili wants!" ”
"Not bad!" Chao Yongzhi said: "The Tianwei Army is different from the Tianwu Army, it is composed of regular soldiers, with considerable combat effectiveness, and more importantly, the Tianwei Army is Yang Guozhong's team!" Placing the Tianwei army on the ba, obviously to guard against An Lushan's rebels, but in fact, it was to guard against Tongguan Ge Shuhan! Scattering the Tianwei Army is a piece of heart disease in Ge Shuhan's heart! ”
"And that's not all!" Bu Yunfei said: "Wang Sili said that he once planned to let Ge Shuhan lead the Tongguan army west to Chang'an, kill Yang Guozhong, and use Yang Guozhong's head to quell the An Lushan rebels. The reason why this plan was not implemented was of course because Ge Shuhan was indecisive at both ends. But more importantly, the Tianwei army is stationed in Ba, and has long been on guard in the direction of Tongguan, as long as the Tianwei army is there, even if it can't resist the Tongguan army, but it can also delay the offensive of the Tongguan army, as long as it can block the Tongguan army for a day, Chang'an can calmly deal with it, and the Tongguan army will hold under the city of Chang'an. You know, An Lushan east of Tongguan is not a vegetarian, if he knows that the Tongguan army is advancing westward, he will immediately wave the army to attack Tongguan, if the Tongguan army can not quickly take Chang'an, it will fall into the embarrassing situation of being attacked on both sides, and it will be defeated! ”
"Big brother, in this way, Wang Sili killed Du Qianyou's scattered Tianwei army, his ultimate goal is to lead the army westward and kill Yang Guozhong?" Banoko asked.
"Not bad!"
"But this is not right, he obviously asked us to assassinate Yang Guozhong with Jiang Feng, once we succeed in the assassination, where does he need to lead the Tongguan army westward."
