Chapter 445: Luoyang Fengyun (1)

Nine Knife Peak broken, Zhuji shook, the whole state was in a panic, the commander of the whole state Liao Bin urgently recruited tens of thousands of troops, to enrich the Zhuji defense line, he was even more personally to Zhuji, sitting in command, and Dingzhou, in view of the attack on the Nine Knife Peak casualties, the Hailing battalion has temporarily lost the ability to fight alone, and urgently needs to be reorganized and supplemented, Li Qing transferred Wang Qinian's department to the Quanzhou battlefield in advance, and merged with the mountain wind department to form the Central Plains Army, Guo Shanfeng served as the supreme commander, and Wang Qinian assisted. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 After the merger, there are more than 70,000 soldiers in the Central Plains Army, plus various auxiliary arms, baggage troops, and medical battalions, totaling more than 100,000.

As soon as the Nine Dao Peak fell, Li Qing turned his gaze to Luoyang, and the breeze also arrived, and the Statistical Survey Department went all out to pay close attention

With every move of Luoyang, the capital of Great Chu. At this time, in Qingzhou and Gaizhou, the Xiao army commanded by Xiao Yuanshan was defeating the southern army and retreating, Hu Zequan was shrinking into Qingzhou City, and the blue mountain had been forced into the mountains of Gaizhou.

The eyes of those who have a heart are turned to Luoyang, the center of the storm, and the wars are raging all over the Great Chu, but the millions of people in this glorious giant city of Great Chu do not feel that today's day is any different from usual, and they get up from bed early in the morning and begin to repeat yesterday's life mechanically.

In the past few days, wars have occurred frequently, everyone has taken it for granted, and any news about this aspect has not aroused much interest in everyone, no matter how the fight is outside, it is still calm here, if you want to talk about the impact, that is, on the market, prices have risen very fast, and the money that could buy a bucket of rice in previous years can only be bought half of it now.

There are four main gates on all sides of Luoyang City, and there are as many as eighteen smaller city gates, each city gate is opened in the early morning, there is always a long queue outside, the Beijing Imperial Forest Army guarding the city gate in the past has been transferred, most of them went to the south with the general to conquer the rebel King Ning, and the remaining more than 10,000 people were all transferred to the inner city, and the task of guarding the outer city was handed over to the soldiers who entered Beijing with Xu Zecheng, the commander of the original state.

Speaking of Xu Zecheng, it is also a very tragic number, when he was in Bingzhou, he was in the gap between the two major forces of Xiao and Dingzhou Li Qing, although he was more inclined to Xiao Shi, but in general, it was still left and right, and the two could not be offended, but a small incident completely changed his life, he became an important bargaining chip in Li Qing's deal with Xiao Shi, and he was forced to give up the state and he sadly led 20,000 henchmen of the Bingzhou army into Beijing, and gave Li Qing the foundation that had been in business for many years.

Xu Zecheng, who suffered huge losses, received a certain amount of compensation from Xiao Haoran and joined the main military department, and now it is because most of the Imperial Forest Army of the Beijing Division went out to fight, and the defense force of the Beijing division was insufficient, and the 20,000 soldiers who had been stationed in Jinggi were also ordered to enter Beijing and take over the defense of the outer city of Luoyang, and he also took over the defense of the outer city of Luoyang. From this point, it can also be seen that Xiao Haoran still trusts him a lot, after all, when Xiao Haoran gave an order, he gave up his foundation and merged with the state, and obediently entered Beijing.

In addition to the Beijing Division, the two major battalions of the Beijing Division also went out, and instead of them, the Xiang army was stationed to defend the Beijing Division, and the core forces of the Xiao Clan left in the Beijing Division were all concentrated in the two key places of the inner city and the imperial city, in Xiao Haoran's view, controlling these two places was equivalent to controlling the entire Luoyang.

Today's Qi Guogong Xiao Haoran, the spring breeze is proud, complacent, and the plan that has been planned for a long time has been implemented smoothly, although with the variable of Hu Zequan, he has not completed the original idea of annihilating the elite of the Southern Army, but he can do this step, he is already very satisfied, the plan will never change fast, you can't let everything go according to the previous ideas, most of the Southern Army was annihilated, and he was about to enter the lair of the Southern Army.

King Ning is already a grasshopper after the autumn, and he can't jump for a few days.

Once King Ning is crowned, the Central Plains will basically be pacified, and his confidant will only be in Dingzhou Li Qing, thinking of Li Qing, the corners of Xiao Haoran's mouth can't help but show a sneer, Li Qing invaded the Lu clan on a large scale, attacked the Zeng clan, and the strategic intention was obvious, but for Xiao Haoran, what does it matter, except for the Zeng clan, most of the places occupied by Li Qing are resource-poor places, and they cannot be compared with the rich Central Plains.

When Li Qing dealt with the barbarians, he had a very classic sentence, "I will smash these barbarians to death with silver!" Xiao Haoran smiled in his heart: "At that time, let me smash you to death with more silver!" ”

Since the coup d'état was launched and the Emperor of the Apocalypse was destroyed, the military and political core of Luoyang was no longer the solemn and brilliant imperial city of the past, but transferred to the Duke of Qi, most of the military and political events came from the Duke of Qi, and the Zhaoqing Emperor has become a veritable ornament, unless something is released in the name of the emperor on the big face, Xiao Haoran will inform the emperor to convene a court meeting, and go through the procedure again, so that it seems to be more justified.

The Mansion of the State of Qi has become the de facto center of Great Chu.

"Chen Gong!" Xiao Haoran appeared in Zhao Prison with a smile, since the coup d'état in Luoyang, the former Shoufu of Da Chu has been locked up in this heavily guarded prison, saying that it is a prison, in fact, Chen Xiyan is not free in action, except for not seeing outsiders, life is still quite leisurely, a separate cell, cleaned up, there are books on the table, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and even the imperial court newspaper every day will appear on Chen Xiyan's table on time.

Xiao Haoran can't kill Chen Xiyan, as Chen Xiyan, who has been the first assistant of Dachu for ten years, his prestige and invisible influence are huge, his protégés and former officials are all over Dachu, and he does have his own uniqueness in the governance of the court, as Xiao Yuanshan, after the world is settled, Chen Xiyan is still a rare good look, with his assistance, governing the world will get twice the result with half the effort. Although Chen Xiyan is still a tendon and refuses to work for Xiao Haoran, Xiao Haoran is not in a hurry, the current Da Chu is still struggling, but it is at the end of the road, when this battered building completely collapses, Xiao Haoran is sure to let Chen Xiyan go out of the mountain again.

"How is Gong Chen doing lately?" Xiao Haoran said with a smile.

Chen Xiyan sat at the small square table, unfolding a newspaper in front of him, without raising his eyelids, and said lightly: "Thanks to the blessing of Grandpa Guo, Chen is now wide and fat, and his spirit is very good." ”

Xiao Haoran laughed, compared with before, Chen Xiyan's complexion is indeed much better now. "How about Gong Chen, if the overall situation is decided today, and the fall of King Ning is just around the corner, are you willing to go out of the mountain to help Xiao?"

Chen Xiyan raised his head, looked at Xiao Haoran who was smiling, sneered and nodded to the newspaper, and said: "Why is the overall situation predetermined, what I see is that the war is raging, and the lives are devastated, Qi Guogong, this fire you lit is now in the ascendant, the war in all directions, the blood is flowing, and tens of millions of people are displaced, do you feel guilty in your heart?" ”

Xiao Haoran laughed, "Gong Chen, Gong Chen, you have been the first assistant for ten years, but you can't imagine that you are still so bookish?" Da Chu's current situation, how can it be Xiao Mou's strength, although Xiao Mou is conceited, but he also knows that he does not have such ability, Da Chu is already in the waning mountains, don't you know? If that's already the case, why not reinvent it and start over? ”

Chen Xiyan said coldly: "The first emperor worked hard, if there are no rebellious ministers and thieves, maybe now the mountains and rivers are clear, and the world is under great rule!" ”

Xiao Haoran was displeased, "Since Gong Chen still hasn't figured it out, he might as well recuperate here, think about it carefully, and see, Xiao is not in a hurry, Gong Chen will always figure it out one day." ”

Looking at Xiao Haoran's back, Chen Xiyan's eyes showed a cold light, his fingers tapped lightly on the newspaper, but the corners of his mouth showed a sneer.

A jailer walked in and cleaned up the table for Chen Xiyan, Chen Xiyan looked away, but asked in his mouth, "Is there any news?" ”

The jailer kept his hands on him, but he said softly in his mouth: "Gong Chen, Lord Yuan has arrived in Beijing yesterday, and a word has been passed down from above, let Chen *** wait here, at most ten days and a half months, and Chen Gong will be able to see the light of day again." ”

"Yuan Fang is here!" Chen Xiyan muttered.

Yuan Fang has arrived in Beijing for a few days, and now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, Qinzhou City has fallen into his own hands, just waiting for Luoyang to launch, he will quickly cut off the back road of Xiao Yuanshan's army, cut off the logistics supply of more than a dozen armies, and trap it in Qinggai and Qinggai, I believe that King Ning will never let go of this opportunity.

At this time, Yuan Fangzheng was in a luxurious house in Luoyang, opposite him, there was a big fat man with a brocade robe and jade belt, but it was Xiang Ping, the patriarch of the Xiang clan, the Xiang clan seemed to have genetics to blame, and most of the family members were big fat people, Xiang Xianhe was like this, although Xiang Ping was not as fat as Xiang Xianhe, but compared to Yuan Fang, who was a little thin in front of him, the body shape was more prominent.

Xiang Ping's fat face has a smile on his face all day long, and he looks like a chubby, harmless uncle next door, but Yuan Fang knows that behind this kind face, there is a scheming heart, the Xiang family is a descendant, the family is huge, and there are many heirs, who can stand out from the many descendants of the Xiang family, and there will be a harmlessness for people and animals that he shows on the surface.

Xiang Ping is among the families, known as the smiling tiger, so you can know that he is a person.

"Yuan Fang, after several years of planning, it's finally time to close the net." Xiang Ping said with a smile.

Yuan Fang bowed, "Yes, Grandpa Guo, but before launching, Yuan Fang has to clean up the portal first and cut off the other party's ears and eyes in Luoyang." ”

"Do you mean Ding Yu?" Xiang Ping shook his fat and said with a smile.

"How is King Han's preparation?" Yuan Fang asked.

"Don't look at the old man who is cowering in the house all day long, and the gate is not out of the second door, but this old guy is really a real person who doesn't show his face, and he controls most of the palace guards in his hands without moving, and on the day of launch, he will sneak into the inner city, and with him in the inner city, the emperor and the harem are safe."

"As for Xu Zecheng, he is now a celebrity in front of Xiao Haoran, and he is more trusted by Xiao Haoran than me." Xiang Ping laughed.

Yuan Fang smiled and said: "Lord Xu is loyal to the country and has made great sacrifices for Dachu, so the emperor will naturally not treat him badly." ”
