Chapter 0559 - Political Essence
"Stop! Stand ...... "On the south side of the head of the city of Wanshengmen, a commander who belongs to the left wing of the crane army in front of the palace came out of the city tower and was about to go to the toilet, when he suddenly saw a team from the south of the city head, openly breaking into his own defense section, he was immediately surprised, and shouted with a calm face: "Which army are you?" Is there a military order for trespassing in the defense zone? ”
"Take him!" Liu Zhicheng stepped out of the crowd with a knife in his hand, pushed away the commander who blocked the road and continued to move forward, and the soldiers behind him rushed away, and the commander with a stunned face was arrested at once. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Not far from the city gate tower, Liu Zhicheng waved his hand, and the soldiers quickly surrounded the city tower as a unit, and marched in detachments to seize the city defense.
Li Jingqing, the commander of the crane control army in the city tower, heard the movement and ran out to inspect it, and saw two soldiers pushing a large wooden barrel and rolling forward, and the mouth of the wooden barrel was facing the battlement of the female wall outside the city, pouring out a pungent yellow water, which wet the wide city brick floor for a long time.
"Bold! What are you doing here? Which army? Li Jingqing looked confused, but he also knew that the friendly troops had openly crossed the border, which was a violation of the military order and would be beheaded.
However, before the words fell, I saw a friendly general in the distance waved his hand, a torch flew away, landed on the wetland, and with a snort, a blue flame suddenly rose on the ground, flying along the first line of wetland, and the city suddenly ignited a wall of fire more than one zhang high, and the flames scurried with the wind, and the momentum was amazing.
"What's it called? You've been arrested! Wanshengmen is guarded by my department, if you want to keep the head of Xiang Shang, obediently watch the play with me! Got it? Liu Zhicheng stepped forward slowly, patted Li Jinggan's shoulder and said.
"What do you want to do? You are a rebellion......" Li Jingqing was shocked, and finally understood that he was in trouble.
At the same time as the fire was burning at the head of Wanshengmen in the outer city, Duanjingzhen of Guzimen, who set off first, led the three commands, turned from Hengqiao Street to the alley of the slum area of Xiaobeifu Street, and appeared on the opposite side of the moat of Liangmen in the inner city, and suddenly ran and accelerated to rush across the moat bridge, knocking the defenders in front of the door hole into the staggered and breaking into the Liangmen.
Just when the soldiers of the three armies in the right carriage of the Si Tie Cavalry in front of the city head hall were in a daze, a large wooden barrel rolled in the open space in the city gate hole, poured out a piece of yellow water, and poured a wide water line on the wide Liangmen Street. Then a wall of fire flew up two or three feet inside the two city gate holes, and the thick smoke and heat rolled straight up to the city.
"Look for death! Herald...... Go down two commanders and disperse them with me! "The guard general Pan Mei, the word Zhongqing, Guangshun was the attendant of the Jin Dynasty at the beginning, and Guo Rong was enthroned as the chief worship officer in the east, and moved from Gaoping to the west of the deputy envoy of the cabinet gate, and was later transferred to the front of the palace by Zhao Kuangyin.
"Captain! You see...... Here comes another detachment! Just as Pan Mei issued a military order, five or six thousand light horsemen came from the inner city of Liangmen Street, and when they arrived at the city, they dismounted one after another, and surrounded a young general and went straight to Yongdaokou.
"Stop him!" People come to your door to set fire, this is naturally to provoke trouble, Pan Mei saw that the momentum was not right, and immediately ordered the soldiers to go down to intercept, and at the same time gathered troops to deploy at the head of the city, and waited with bows and arrows.
"Who is the head of the city? Get down and take the order! "The young general is Chen Jia, the deputy commander of Long Jie's left wing, who came from the guard camp, and now the fire has burned, and the guard Pan Mei has not taken it, and the matter is only half done.
"Look at you guys from the Guards, what do you want to do? Give the order to grandpa, you are not worthy! Pan Mei sneered at the head of the city.
"Really? I also told you that the city gate was on fire, and you were doomed! If you come down, you can still save a dog's life! "With the support of the lord behind him, of course Chen Jia is not afraid, but he is here to cheer Duan Jingzhen on, but on the other hand, put out the fire! But when she saw that Pan Mei dared to scold, she was immediately furious, and she wanted to lead her troops to kill the city, but there was an order from above that no blood was allowed.
"Fuck you! Is being a grandfather scared? Wait! Pan Mei understood the situation, of course he ignored it, he still had Zhao Kuangyin on his head, although he had confidence, he didn't dare to go down to the city.
The two sides confronted each other for a while, and the guards Sima Jun commanded Gao Huaide to lead the troops over, and when he saw that the fire was getting smaller and smaller, and there was a choking smell, he saw that this was fire oil, and simply asked about the situation, and immediately regretted coming in his heart. Chen Jia's Long Jie Left Wing was also subordinate to the guard Sima Jun and was under his control, but it was obviously under the command of others.
"Is there a military order from the Shangguan?" Gao Huaide decided to find out who made such a farce, and it was really scary at this time!
"Yes! Privy council! The Liangmen defenders were on fire, and the last general was ordered to come, but the city head guard not only did not come down to put out the fire, but wantonly abused, please General Gao to make a clear decision! Chen Jia sued first, and roared with righteousness.
"Wait where you are, don't make a mess!" Gao Huaide snorted coldly, he still couldn't understand that someone deliberately set fire to plant false accusations, and he actually transferred his troops without the military order of the guard Sima Jun's office, which was really bold. But this is a matter for the upper echelons, and he can't control it, so he has to report to the palace first. As for who issued the military order, he didn't want to read it.
Gao Huaide rode a horse and trotted all the way to the Xuande Gate, and saw Ma Renyu leading more than 100 horsemen to gallop by, probably because the palace saw the firelight and came out to inspect the situation. Gao Huaide thought that since it was a military order of the Privy Council, it was better to go to the Privy Council first. If you enter the palace to face the saint, a woman and a child, they are in a hurry to report it, and they still have to be dealt with by the privy.
Entering the right door, all the way to the front door of the Privy Council, under the archway, it is really more lively than on the eve of the army's march. When the generals of the Guards Division and the Front Division of the Palace heard the news, they stood in front of the door and asked each other questions. In front of the main gate on the steps ahead, more than 200 soldiers on duty blocked the way and shouted, "Unless summoned by the privy council, the generals of all armies are forbidden to trespass.
At this time, the ceremonial guards in the lobby of the Privy Council are readily available, and the high table of the chief and deputy privy councillors is in the center and the side is on the right. In front of the case, the yellow silk seal and arrows are placed, and the deputy envoy is the same as the Privy Council, and has no right to hold the seal, only a lot of pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and arrows.
On both sides, there are more than 30 people in charge of the four rooms, including soldiers, officials, households, and ceremonial officials, plus more than 30 people such as the Privy Council, the Privy Vice-Minister, the Privy Vice-Minister, the Privy Vice-Minister, the Shouque Chief, the Lingshi, and the scribes.
Zhang Yue sat at the top right table at this time, this is the first time since he received the Privy Council to the deputy envoy, it is also bad, the huge Privy Council, equivalent to the National General Staff, but it is like a decoration, large and small affairs are decided by Wang Pu and the Zhongshu Senate Governor, to the equivalent of the Ministry of National Defense of the palace front division, the guard department to execute, in fact, this is absolutely non-compliant.
Zhang Yue even has to inquire about all kinds of news by himself, in fact, he has long been unhappy, since the end of the war in Youzhou, he has been knocked on the hammer again and again, and the last counterattack in court did not make them remember it for a long time, and now he is blatantly making such a fuss, just to give them a wake-up call, let them know that in the era of human rule, if you play political power, I can play bigger and better than you!
Everything was changed to change the guard, the marshal sent an envoy to march, and the border garrison reported the battle, but he didn't know it at all, Zhang Yue had already endured enough. Of course, what is more important is that the transfer of the generals of the two divisions that they are about to prepare will be exchanged, and the plan of the local commander to move the town will all be aborted.
What is politics? The formal explanation is to take care of a lot of people's business. However, there is another saying that says it well: politicians are all-son-raised! There is no black and white, no deer or horse, as someone said: politics is how to make fewer and fewer enemies and more and more comrades.
