In October of the first year of Taining, Sima Shao, the son of heaven, was in high spirits because Wang Dun was about to die. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

When he was convinced that Wang Dun had reached his deathbed, Sima Shao immediately declared Wang Dun a rebel and ordered Tao Kan, Su Jun, Zuyo and other foreign feudal towns to raise troops to punish the rebellion.

At the same time, the Son of Heaven awarded Situ Wang Dao as the governor of the capital, the false festival, and the history of Yangzhou Thorn, the commander of the three armies, sitting in the imperial city; Danyang Yin Xijian commanded the Praetorian Guard Army to garrison Stone City; Yu Liang, the supervisor of Zhongshu, and Bian Hu, the right general of Shangshu, led troops and horses to guard the main roads in Jianye.

As soon as the news broke, the world was in an uproar, and the most panicked people were naturally the generals and his henchmen. Qian Feng, Wang Han and his son, Deng Yue and others knew very well that unless Wang Dun could recover his health immediately and personally lead the troops to the battle, otherwise in the face of the menacing offensive of the imperial court, the rebels in panic would have no chance of winning.

In the city, Wang Dun saw that the weather was good, so he asked people to put the couch in the middle of the courtyard, and lay on it sideways, wanting to enjoy the rare autumn tranquility, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Qian Feng hurriedly coming over.

Qian Feng didn't expect to meet the general in the courtyard, and when he saw Wang Dun looking at him in a daze, he hesitated for a while, and stepped forward to gently fold the quilt for Wang Dun.

"General, it's a cool autumn breeze, you've been here for half an hour, why don't you go back and rest?"

"What are you doing here, and what are you holding in your hands?" Wang Dun ignored Qian Feng, he had already seen the book in Qian Feng's hand.

Qian Feng hurriedly hid behind him, but Wang Dun snatched it in his hand and looked at it, it turned out that what Qian Feng was holding in his hand was the edict of rebellion issued by Sima Shao, the Son of Heaven.

I saw that it read: "...... Those who have not succeeded to the body without the king's order are also rewarded with stubbornness and have no scruples; Zhicheng is fierce and ugly, in order to peek at the artifact. The sky will not be treacherous, and he will be killed......"

Wang Duncai felt that the five organs were like boiling oil splashed at the beginning, he calmed down slightly, and then looked down, it was nothing more than announcing that those who followed Wang Dun to make trouble, and they would not be investigated, and the last sentence was: Those who dare to give up Wang Dun's name and surname and call him a general will be killed!

"Alas! I deeply regret that I listened to Wang Maohong's words and let this Xianbeier go, resulting in today's disaster. ”

At this moment, the heir Wang Ying shouted and broke in: "Father, it's not good, the Son of Heaven has crowned my uncle as the governor of the capital, and he is leading troops to conquer us." ”

As soon as Qian Feng heard Wang Ying's voice, he knew that something bad was wrong, and he tried his best to color Wang Ying, but it was too late.

"Bastard, do you believe in this kind of thing?"

Wang Dunqiang endured the uneasiness in his heart and rebuked, to be honest, although he had many disagreements with Wang Dao, he would never want to close the wall with Wang Dao's brothers.

"On the way from Jianye to Guyi, there are people everywhere who are saying, it's really ......" Wang Ying didn't dare to say.

"Get out!"

Wang Dun is like an angry lion, in fact, he had expected Wang Dao's betrayal, and now he just further confirmed the truth from his son's mouth.

It seemed that he had felt that he had betrayed his relatives, and Wang Dun muttered to himself: "Maohong is confused, how can you let Xianbei'er be so at the mercy of you?" ”

After a long while, Wang Dunqiang pressed down the panic in his heart, and his face returned to normal, and he ordered Qian Feng: "Mr. and Wang Han immediately lead the army to set off, and before the imperial court reacts, they will first attack Jianye and kill Sima Shao." ”

"No!"

Qian Feng took the order and hurried away, he knew that this was the last fight of the general, if it was successful, everyone still had a chance of life, otherwise they would wait to be wiped out by the imperial court.

It's just that what Qian Feng didn't expect was that Wang Dun was already terminally ill, and now after some tossing, he can't do it at all. Not long after Qian Feng and Wang Han set off, Wang Dun did not wait for the moment when the army broke through Jianye, and he died with regret and resentment.

Before he died, Wang Dun specially left his last words, so that his heir Wang should immediately ascend the throne and become emperor.

But who knew that the timid and incompetent Wang Ying was afraid of panic after the funeral, so he secretly blocked the news.

At this time, Qian Feng and Wang Han's men and horses had already been killed by the Qinhuai River.

Yu Liang is guarding the first line of the Zhuque Gate, here is the south gate of the outer city of Jiankang, the Qinhuai River goes around the door, and the prosperity of Jiankang City such as Changganli, Nantang and Wuyi Lane are all nearby.

After repeated weighing, Yu Liang called on the soldiers to burn the pontoon bridge across the Qinhuai River outside the Suzaku Gate.

Looking at the blazing Suzaku Bridge, Yu Liang breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Sima Shao, who was patrolling around, arrived in full armor, and was furious when he saw this: "Yu Yuangui, you dare to disobey the decree and burn the Vermilion Bird Bridge without authorization, do you want to secretly communicate with the opposing party?" ”

"Your Majesty."

Yu Liang looked very calm, "The strength of the guards is weak, the Qinwang army is still on the road, the thief army is strong, and it is not difficult to take the Vermilion Bird Bridge." If this bridge is lost, the thieves will run rampant, compared to the safety of the community, how can Your Majesty regret a bridge? ”

After listening to the explanation, Sima Shaofang, who was extremely nervous, became relaxed, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword quietly let go.

"Well, it seems that this is the only way, if you lose the Vermilion Bird Gate, you will cut yourself off on this Qinhuai River, and you don't have to see your queen again!"

With that, Sima Shao raised his horsewhip and galloped away.

About half an hour later, Yixing Shen Chong led 20,000 horses to the south of Jianye City to join Wang Han's rebels.

At this time, everyone did not know the news that Wang Dun had died of illness, and they were ready to make a desperate attempt to break through the Suzaku Gate.

Suddenly there were shouts of killing, arrows, screams, and shouts...... Mixed together, wrapped in the smoke that permeated everywhere, it spread far away.

The neighboring Wuyi Lane has long been under martial law, and Director Wang is in the imperial city at this time, and before leaving, he told his family not to panic and wait and see what happens.

Director Wang's heart is very calm, he knows very well that no matter who the final winner of this battle is, he will not be in danger, and he is really sitting firmly in Diaoyutai. If the imperial court had eliminated Wang Dun, he would have been a meritorious man; If Wang Dun enters Jiankang, he will be a child of the Wang family no matter what, and at least he can be safe.

Pei Dun was not as calm as Director Wang, he first nailed the front and rear doors to death with long nails, and then distributed the weapons hidden in the house to dozens of strong domestic slaves, so that they could patrol and guard in turn.

The tranquility of Wuyi Lane could not hide the tension of the Suzaku Gate, and in the face of the rebels twice as large as himself, Yu Liang couldn't resist it, and Bian Ju and Xi Jian were also dragged by Wang Han, and they lacked skills.

Seeing that his soldiers were forced to retreat again and again, Yu Liang angrily took off his helmet and called Yu Bing, who was the deputy general: "Ji Jian, in case I am unfortunately killed, I must hand this helmet to the queen mother and tell her that Yu Yuangui did not disgrace the Yu family!" ”

Yu Bing hesitated and was about to take over the helmet, when he suddenly heard the sound of killing in the northeast direction, and there was a "whoosh", as if the Qinhuai River was in turmoil, swept by the sound of weapons colliding and the shouts of soldiers, surging over.

Looking up, the rebels' positions were in chaos, and several battle flags flashed out at a glance, with "Qingzhou Su Jun", "Youzhou Zuyue", and "Sizhou Guo Mo" written on them.

"It's finally here!" Yu Liang shouted excitedly, he took back the helmet from Yu Bing's hand, raised it above his head, and beckoned the soldiers and Su Jun's men and horses to attack.

Suddenly, the situation on the battlefield changed dramatically.

Soon the rebels collapsed, and Wang Han, Qian Feng, Shen Chong, Deng Yue, Zhou Fu and other Wang Dun henchmen scattered and fled.

At this point, the Wang Dun Group, which had always threatened the safety of the royal family, finally collapsed.

And Wang Dun's body was also dragged out, and Sima Shao, the son of heaven who hated him so much, ordered his clothes to be burned and his body beheaded.

Let go of Wang Dun, in addition to Sima Shao, the most excited person is Yu Liang, he has long been dissatisfied with Langya Wang's control of the government, this time with the fall of Wang Dun, Wang's power has been hit hard, it is to vigorously weaken Wang's power, and establish the Yu family's prestige.

When confronting the edict of the Son of Heaven, Yu Liang wrote to the Son of Heaven to request the removal of Situ Wang Dao as an auxiliary minister on the grounds that many of Wang's children were involved in the rebellion.

"Maohong is not comparable to Wang Dun, he has great prestige in the family, and he has the merit of establishing the country, and when Wang Dun rebelled, Maohong was the commander of any party, and sent a letter to Dun Xuan, which is really a righteous annihilation, if he belittles him, he is only afraid that the people will not be convinced."

With the destruction of Wang Dun, Sima Shao, the Son of Heaven, no longer needed Wang Dao as before, and also had the intention of deposing Wang Dao, but he hesitated because he was worried about the turmoil in the outside world.

"Your Majesty, you must not depose Lord Situ, Yuan Gui's words are to trap Your Majesty in injustice!" The person who spoke was none other than Xi Jian.

"Am I doing something wrong?" Yu Liang was a little angry.

"In the past few days, the minister has sorted out the "Living Note" of the previous dynasty, and I know that the first emperor had the heart of abolishing the long and young several times, and Wang Maohong and Zhou Boren repeatedly admonished him to retain the position of His Majesty's crown prince. Your Majesty must not forget! ”

Seeing that Xi Jian was strongly opposed, Sima Shao knew that the opportunity to depose Wang Dao was not ripe at the moment, so he had to sigh: "This matter is over today, and it must not be mentioned again in the future!" (To be continued.) )
