Chapter 0589: The Times Are Pressing

In mid-September, autumn grain was put into storage in various places, and there were horse teams in the suburbs of Tokyo to escort the tax grain to the official warehouse of the Ministry of Households, and even the official grain fleets in Luoyang Mansion in Xijing and Xuzhou in the southeast also began to be shipped, and only the Daimyo Mansion in Hebei Province and the Yongxing Military Mansion in Guanxi Province had no news.

In the afternoon of this day, more than 100 cavalry soldiers rushed into the Minamifumon Gate of Tokyo like a gallop, and then went north along the Royal Street, and finally stopped by the gatekeepers outside the Suzaku Gate, and a young military envoy came down from the city and shouted angrily: "The inner city is not allowed to ride horses, where do you come from?" Can it be related to anti-espionage? ”

"Absolutely! The last general is coming from the south, and there is an urgent military situation to report to the cardinal, please let him go! The tooth soldier officer took out a fold of the pass and handed it over.

"An Yuanjun? Wait! The envoy of the forbidden army took it and looked at it, his face changed quietly, and he took the paperwork back to the duty room behind the city gate, took the pen and ink and quickly drew the seal of the charge, and asked the soldiers to hand it back. When he went out, he saw that the team of tooth soldiers walked along the royal street, and wrote a note by hand, calling a commander to give an order, and the commander rode into the inner city after receiving the order, and went all the way to the side gate of Zhaofu on Bianhe West Street and dismounted, and then stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Soon, Chu Zhaofu, who often lived in Zhao Mansion to assist in the stewardship, received a report, and when he went out, he called the commander and asked a few words, but he didn't get any actual content, only knowing that there was a military situation in Anzhou in the south entering Beijing, so he sent a general to the camp of the palace to inform Zhao Kuangyin.

Since the failure of the Gongxian assassination, Wang Yansheng did not come back, and lost nearly a thousand soldiers, Zhao Kuangyin was a thief with a weak heart, eating and living in the Sidong camp in front of the palace every day, and only went to the front of the palace office at noon or morning and evening, but Murong Yanzhao sat in the government every day, and the affairs of the big and small did not fall.

But what made him worried was that the Gong County Commander and several officials were killed in that assassination incident, and the guard secretary Li Chuyun did not react at all, and the court and the central government acted as if they were completely unaware. But soon, news came from the northwest that Zhang Yue went to Guanzhong to take office and set up a camp to prepare for the expedition, but the commanders in various places were unmoved, and Zhang Yue went to Huining.

Of course, Zhao Kuangyin also knew that the so-called Fan chieftain entered the Kou itself with another mystery, and Zhang Yue was just forcibly asking for power from the court in the name of this, and once he went to Huining, it would be a tiger entering the deep mountains.

Therefore, I heard that Zhang Yue transferred troops to garrison Tongguan, and even transferred troops from Jingzhou to Yongxing Military Mansion, Zhao Kuangyin was anxious but helpless, and recently asked the two brothers Dou Yi and Dou Yan to persuade Fan Zhen in Zhongshu, and also regulated Zhao Ding and Zhao Chao out of Shaanzhou and Hezhong Mansion in the Crane Army, and transferred Murong Yanzhao out of Luoyang to know about the affairs of Luoyang, but Wang Pu refused.

However, the bad news is not over, first Shuzhou Yongtai Jiedu envoy Wang Quanbin reported that the Hanyang and Yue troops were frequently transferred to the south, and Langzhou Yao Chongyu also transferred troops to Yuezhou and assembled with Yang Shouzhen's troops. Before Zhao Kuangyin guessed their intentions, he sent a letter to Anyuan Jiedu Tian Jingxian to monitor the movements of the Eyue army and the Wuping army nearby, and now, finally a military report has been transmitted back to Tokyo.

In the evening, Zhao Kuangyin went to the palace as usual, and soon got accurate news, Shannan Dongdao Xiangxun and Wuping medicine met again, Eyue Yang Shouzhen three towns joined forces, coercion and persuasion methods were used together, and Nanping Gao Baorong surrendered.

Zhao Kuangyin was not surprised, the reason why the small soldiers of Nanping Kingdom had stood for a long time was just at the border of Tang, Chu, Zhou, and Shu, and it could be easily solved if he gave his own order, but it was a pity that his eyes were on the forbidden army, and he never thought about the local layout.

At the beginning of the night, Zhao Kuangyin was still restless when he went home by car, and he sat alone in the study for a long time before he sent someone to invite Zhao Pu and Chu Zhaofu.

Zhao Pu and Chu Zhaofu entered the study, and when they saw that it was pitch black and there was no lamp, Chu Zhaofu had to find the fire fold in person and light the lamp, close the door with his hand, and sit opposite Zhao Pu behind the table.

Zhao Kuangyin rubbed his temples and said softly with a tired expression: "Zeping!" Zhang Yuanzhen went to Kansai and gradually became bigger, and the longer it went, the more difficult it became! He has now dispatched his subordinates to eat Nanping, and this momentum has risen sharply, and if we take over the entire Kansai, we will not be able to compete. ”

Zhao Pu sighed in his heart, looked at Chu Zhaofu, and didn't know what to say. As early as more than a month ago, when arranging the assassination in Gongxian County, Zhao Pu suggested that he immediately carry out a mutiny, but in the end he was vetoed by Zhao Kuangyin.

"It's still too late to act, although there is only fifty percent of it left, it will be more dangerous, but if you don't take a risk, I'm afraid that the existing wealth and nobility will not be guaranteed, and the lord will make a clear decision!" Zhao Pu looked at Zhao Kuangyin with a blank eye, and felt that his father-in-law was good at everything, and he had vision and ability, but when he needed to make a decision on a major event, his momentum withered.

Sometimes, Zhao Pu can't help but wonder, is a lord who has the ability and foresight, but lacks courage, worth following? But there is no way, but he has no possibility of switching to the second family, and his talents and ambitions still need to be displayed with the help of Zhao Kuangyin.

Chu Zhaofu also hurriedly said: "Lord! When this situation is in this situation, if we want to do things sooner rather than later, if we control the capital and get the righteousness, as long as we solve the guard division, we can not only transfer the forbidden army, but also transfer the town to crusade against Zhangtu, even if it is difficult to stabilize the situation for a while, with Tongguan as the boundary, it is always possible to get half of the country. ”

"Gongchen can't talk nonsense, how can it be that everyone gets half of the country, isn't that a big mess in the world?" Zhao Pu glared at Chu Zhaofu when he heard this, and explained: "What Gong Chen said is nothing more than to control the righteousness of the court, but in the end, it still depends on the strength to speak, as long as we succeed, we will control all the forbidden army, and at that time, the foreign domain will dare not bow down?" No matter how prestigious this Zhang Tu is in Kansai, he can't swallow Kansai in a short time, the situation is like this, the lord must not hesitate anymore! ”

Zhao Kuangyin lowered his eyebrows, shrugged his head and was stunned for a long time, exhaled in a dull voice, got up silently and took out a scroll from the standing cabinet and spread it on the table.

When Chu Zhaofu heard this, he pointed to the East Corner Tower and said, "Then before that, did you muddy the water first according to the plan?" The difficulty in acting at the moment lies in how to transfer part of the troops to the west of the city without realizing it, because the Xihua Gate must be taken. The garrison of our palace division is mostly in the east of the city, from the old Cao Gate into the city is the closest, to the east corner of the tower under the Panlou Street to divide the troops, all the way along the Huangcheng Street to the north, all the way from the Liangmen Street to the west, the speed must be very fast, otherwise the guard division will react! ”

"Of course! What Gong Chen said is very true! The Liangmen, Bianhe Water Gate, and Yiqiu Gate garrisons in the west of the city are all Li Chuyun's people, but if we transfer troops to the west of the city, we can enter the inner city through the Jinshui Gate. It only takes two steps, one is to seize the Donghua Gate, the Xihua Gate, the Left Gate, the Xuande Gate, and the Right Gate, which is where the cardinals of the country on both sides of the Chongyuan Hall are located. The second is to send troops to surround the guard camp as quickly as possible, as long as the strength of the battalion is solved, and the garrison troops inside and outside the gate lose supplies, they will not be able to support it for two days! Zhao Pu also analyzed.

Zhao Kuangyin stood up, looked up at the roof, and muttered: "The times are pressing, what can I say now?" Zeping and Gongchen will contact each other separately! Shi Shouxin is going to Beijing in the next two days, and it will be easier to do things with him coming back, and Gao Huaide is still cautious. ”
