Chapter 585: Start Early
585
When the Emperor of the Apocalypse came to the battlefield, everything was already a foregone conclusion, and the soldiers were burying the corpses. The air was filled with a faint smell of gunpowder, and there were craters from artillery on the shore, and many places were still on fire.
"Your Majesty, someone has been left here to clean up, and it has been delayed for a few days, so let's rush to Nanjing!" Sun Chuanting stood beside the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and he didn't seem to have any interest in the things on the shore, and said in a deep voice.
Nodding, the smell of corpses could be smelled from afar, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse himself didn't want to go over. Although he ordered to kill many people, he really had never seen such a dead person. Glancing at Sun Chuanting, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said in a deep voice: "Let's go!" When I go to Nanjing, I want to see what other skills these people have. β
At this time, the city of Nanjing can be said to be in a depression, the streets are full of patrolling brocade guards and soldiers, and the whole city of Nanjing no longer has the prosperity of the past. The shops that were originally noisy were also closed at this time. There are no hawkers in the streets, and there are few pedestrians.
Wei Guogong's Mansion, Wei Guogong was walking around the room at this time, with a somewhat anxious look on his face, thinking hard about countermeasures.
"Grandpa Guo, things have come to this point, don't worry about the baby's life. Everything is important to the affairs of the grandfather of the country, and the affairs of the baby can only be regarded as his life! Zhou Langzhong saw Wei Guogong walking around, and said with a little helplessness on his face.
Seeing the perseverance on Zhou Langzhong's face, Wei Guogong nodded slowly, this matter can only be like this. Don't say it's Zhou Langzhong's grandson, even if it's his own grandson, he can't take care of it at this time.
Nodding, Wei Guogong turned his gaze to Mu Tianbo to the side, and said in a deep voice: "Virtuous nephew, do you have any good ideas?" β
"Grandpa Guo, the old man has retired!" Zhou Langzhong knew that there was something wrong with him staying here, so he saluted Wei Guogong, turned around and left.
When Zhou Langzhong went out, Mu Tianbo said slowly: "Grandpa Guo, we don't know what these people are going to do. There is only one thing we can do, and that is to control the military power in Nanjing. Grandpa Guo is the governor of the Metropolitan Mansion of the Five Armies of Nanjing, commanding the Nanjing military horses, no matter what these people want to do, no one is a flower in the mirror, the moon in the water. β
nodded, Wei Guogong had thought of this a long time ago, and he still had confidence in the military power Wei Guogong. Although he handed over the military power to An Xiangbo temporarily, but without his own hand, An Xiangbo wanted to mobilize some people. That's absolutely impossible. But knowing the person, knowing the face, but not the heart. I don't know who they are!
"The virtuous nephew is right. Then I'm going to go to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies now? Regaining control of the military? Wei Guogong nodded and looked at Mu Tianbodao.
Shaking his head with a smile, Mu Tianbo said indifferently: "Don't be in such a hurry, with the prestige of Grandpa Guo in Nanjing." Naturally, there is no problem in regaining military power. It's just that now everything is hidden under the water, and Grandpa Guo is not easy to start. Let's wait and see what happens! I believe that the results will be available soon. However, Grandpa Guo also has to contact his henchmen and generals first, so that they can wait for Grandpa Guo's orders. β
"Well, this is naturally to be done, and I will send someone to spread the word immediately!" Seeing that Mu Tianbo still had something to say, Wei Guogong smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, this matter will not be known to others!" β
After the things are arranged. Before Wei Guogong had arranged anything else, the housekeeper walked in, respectfully saluted Wei Guogong, and said, "Grandpa Guo, there are two people outside who want to see you." This is their token! β
Frowning slightly, who will come here at this time? What's more, there are only tokens, no prayers. However, Wei Guogong still took the token, such a mysterious person must have an extraordinary identity, or he can't see the light. After taking the token in the black cloth bag, Wei Guogong was stunned when he saw it.
This is an oval-shaped brand, made of topaz, with a few simple words engraved on it: Jin Yiwei commands Luo Sigong! Why did Luo Sigong come at this time? However, Wei Guogong also knew that Luo Sigong must have something very important here.
"Please!" Glancing at Mu Tianbo on the side, Wei Guogong instructed the housekeeper.
After a short time, two people with hats on their heads walked in and saluted to Wei Guogong: "I've seen Grandpa Guo!" β
"I really didn't expect Lord Luo and Gong Cui to go to the Guogong Mansion, but this is not the time to be polite, these false gifts are still waived! Open the skylight and say something, there is nothing to hide! A different color flashed on Wei Guogong's face, and standing next to Luo Sigong was actually Cui Fu, the eunuch of Nanjing, which really didn't make Wei Guogong expect.
The two of them took off the hat, Luo Sigong nodded solemnly, and said: "Luo Mou also has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, the matter has not reached the point of being out of control, and Luo Mou will not come to find Grandpa Guo." However, Grandpa Guo's health is fine, but he just hides people's eyes and ears, which makes Luo admire. β
"It's just a calculation, it's nothing! Lord Luo, let's talk about it! Seeing that Luo Sigong said so seriously, Wei Guogong's face also became serious, and he said in a deep voice.
Glancing at Cui Fu beside him, Luo Sigong said in a deep voice: "Grandpa Cui, it's up to you!" It's not a trivial matter, time is too precious, so let's just talk about it briefly! β
Since Chen Hong left, Cui Fu has been restless, and after thinking about it all night, Cui Fu decided to go to Zhou Jiamo, the minister of the Imperial Mission. You can't wait passively, you must take the initiative to make meritorious contributions. However, he didn't expect Zhou Jiamo to be dead, and he still thinks Zhou Jiamo is alive.
It was Luo Sigong who was in charge of the reception, and after understanding the matter clearly, Luo Sigong did not dare to delay in the slightest. took Cui Fu to the Wei Guogong Mansion, and this matter must be solved by Wei Guogong.
The Wei Mansion was making plans, and on the other side of Nanjing City, Fang Shihong was also plotting. The location is the courtyard of King Fu's son, and all the people on the list have arrived except Cui Fu.
"I said a long time ago that the dead eunuch was unreliable, and he actually ran to Qincha Xingyuan this morning!" Fang Shihong put the teacup on the table angrily, his face was bruised, obviously angry to the extreme!
"Now is not the time to talk about that eunuch, what matters is what do we do? We've been exposed now, I'm afraid the brocade guards will come to arrest people soon, and we don't have time! An Xiangbo's face on the side was gloomy and terrifying, and he said with a calm face.
"Yes! Lord Fang, you have to come up with an idea at this moment! What are we going to do, we can't just sit back and wait here, can we? This time it was Liu Quan, who was the soldier, and he looked at Fang Shihong with anticipation on his face.
After pondering for a moment, Fang Shihong turned his gaze to Zhu Youxiang, the prince of King Fu on the side, and said respectfully: "His Royal Highness, I don't know what His Highness thinks?" β
At this time, Zhu Youxiang could only be described as six gods without masters, but it was not easy to show it, so he pretended to think for a moment and said: "This son doesn't know much about Nanjing, but what Lord Liu said makes sense, you can't sit still!" Ladies and gentlemen, let's come up with a good idea! β
Fang Shihong didn't expect Zhu Youxiang in the first place, and asking was just out of respect for Zhu Youxiang. At this time, he looked around on everyone's faces and said, "Now that the matter is now, we can only do it in advance!" β
Everyone looked at each other, and finally they all nodded, their eyes fell on Fang Shihong again, and everyone said, "Lord Fang, arrange it!" β
Without prevarication, Fang Shihong nodded and said, "Uncle An Xiangbo sent people and horses into the city, and only your henchmen and horses were dropped!" As for the rest of the military horses, don't move, especially the henchmen and generals of Wei Guogong, don't move! After transferring men and horses into the city, he sealed the city gate and installed His Royal Highness the Prince in the city. Send people to occupy the palace and various yamen, and attack the Wei Prince's Mansion. As long as the situation in Nanjing is stabilized, we will have the capital! β
Everyone seems to have found the backbone of the heart again, and their faces are not as ugly as they were just now! Someone also added: "All of our people from the yamen have returned to their respective yamen!" As soon as the action begins, he will lead the people of the yamen to support His Royal Highness! If someone doesn't listen, they will kill people directly! β
"Well, that's it! In addition, immediately send people to leave Nanjing, so that the local families are ready, and once Nanjing is taken, they will cooperate. Compete for the city in various places and declare your support for His Royal Highness. Tell you protΓ©gΓ©s that it is time to live and die, and lift up the hand that holds the silver to me! Fang Shihong's face was a little crazy, and his eyes became blood-red because of bloodshot.
The people present seemed to be infected by this atmosphere, and everyone had an excited look on their faces, as if they saw the dawn of victory.
"Uncle An, you can leave other things to others to do, and you must go in person to attack the Wei Mansion. If Wei Guogong is willing to support the prince, it is the best. However, there is not much hope, and there will definitely be a fight, and we must quickly break through the Wei Mansion. Once the situation in the city is stabilized, send people to become to receive the rest of the army, and then set up the Yangtze River defense line. Fang Shihong looked at An Xiangbo seriously, most of the success or failure of the matter depended on An Xiangbo.
"Don't worry! I won't be negligent in this kind of thing that is related to my family's life! An Xiangbo nodded, and said with a very serious face.
His gaze swept over everyone's faces again, and finally fell on Zhu Youxiang's body, Fang Shihong hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness, is it okay to arrange His Highness like this?" β
Fang Shihong's words seemed to have a kind of magic, and Zhu Youxiang, who was still a master of the six gods just now, also stabilized at this time. nodded, and said with a majestic face: "The adult is really a talent, and he can do things in a clear manner, okay!" Not bad, very good! Eyes swept over everyone's faces, Zhu Youxiang said with a smile: "Your merits have been recorded in this world, and he will definitely show his father and reward him for his deeds!" β
