The battle in Jinling City was nearing the end, Li Jingda rebelled, raised his troops in the early morning, and was defeated in the evening!

Li Jingda mobilized the garrisons of Zhenjiang and Quarshiji to suddenly attack Jinling, and it stands to reason that the sudden attack, and then someone cooperated, and the inside and outside should be combined. Even if Jinling City is tall and strong, it can't withstand such an internal and external attack, but Li Jingda failed!

Although he arranged it carefully, it failed in the end, because the lord of the country, Li Jing, arranged it more thoughtfully than him.

Zhao Zheng and Han Xizai's actions at the beginning, scaring the grass and the snake, and then knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, the ultimate goal was to persecute Li Jingda, make him uneasy, and make him afraid. When he reaches a certain level of uneasiness, he will think of a sentence - the first strike is strong, and the second attack suffers.

Sometimes, however, it is not necessarily better to strike first.

Be prepared and be prepared, that is to fight for strength, even if Li Jingda is the first person in the Southern Tang Army, how can he compare with Li Jing, the lord of the country? Especially what he did was to seek the usurpation of the throne, although Li Jing was cowardly, he was also a benevolent king, and Li Jingda's rebellion had no justice at all.

Not to mention whether the people support it or not, the attitude of the soldiers is also very important. The defense of Quarry Rock and Zhenjiang was in charge of Li Jingda, and after many years of operation, most of the generals were his confidants, and the army was also ordered to be dispatched. But when they arrived at Jinling City, the soldiers heard that they were going to attack the capital, and their hearts began to tremble.

In the feudal era, imperial power and orthodoxy were deeply rooted, and soldiers were quite in awe of imperial power in addition to obeying the orders of their generals. Like the ministers and ministers, they are more or less loyal to the monarch. It is self-evident what it means to let them attack the capital of their own country and kill the lord of the country, in fact, it is a rebellion, and how many people are willing to take the risk to participate in it?

What's more, many of their relatives are in Jinling City, and once the war is ignited, their families will also suffer. Soldiers are not stupid, they can still understand the basic truth.

I have to say that Li Jingda's preparation was a little hasty and a failure. There was no effective mobilization and ideological education for the soldiers, so that the morale of the people was discouraged during the siege of the city. It was only then that he offered his banner, but a fatal blow followed.

Li Jingda raised troops under the banner of Li Congjia, the king of Wu, which means that he assisted the king of Wu Qingjun's side, as for who is the villain on the king's side...... When the city is broken, it is up to them to have the final say. This banner is very appropriate, it is full of legitimacy, and the soldiers' perception has also changed, and it turns out that it is not a rebellion.

Li Jingda's statement is that the Song envoys, in collusion with traitors in the court, have seized the lord of the state and are preparing to subvert the Tang state. When King Wu learned the news, he turned the tide, and they assisted King Wu in saving the Tang Kingdom from danger. What righteous words, what great excuses, the soldiers and civilians who did not know the truth were almost blinded.

But the soldiers soon found out that His Royal Highness King Wu had not appeared for a long time! Since it is King Wu who wants to clear the king's side, why doesn't he come to preside over the overall situation? There may be some deception in this!

As time passed, suspicion became more and more severe, and some people began to suspect that Li Jingda was false propaganda, and the direct result was that the already fragmented military spirit was shaken again, and almost immediately collapsed.

Li Jingda kept complaining, what is going on with his son Li Congqing? Didn't he say that there was a way to get Li Congjia out and use him as a "puppet of justice", why hasn't he seen anyone yet?

At this time, His Royal Highness the King of Qi did not know that his son was in trouble in Zhongshan, not to mention the failure of the operation, and he had fallen into a state of self-insecurity. He didn't even know that Li Congshan, the king of Han, had taken people out of the city to rescue, because Huangfu Jixun did not inform him of this important news in time.

This is another bad situation that Li Jingda faced, and it was also fatal, and the allies who had agreed to cooperate with him defected.

It has to be said that he made a somewhat stupid mistake, and it was appropriate to look for an ally, but the person he was looking for was very inappropriate.

Huangfu Jixun has the potential to be a careerist, but more often than not, he is a wall-to-wall grass, and for him, interests always come first. Controlling a quarter of the guards of Jinling City, this is his biggest capital, and it is precisely because of this that Li Jingda came to him.

At that time, Huangfu Jixun agreed, because Li Jingda promised to give him enough benefits, and he himself felt that he had a chance to succeed. It's a pity that the chance of success was messed up by himself, and Huangfu Jixun is far behind his father Huangfu Hui. He started preparing early, and that's why he leaked the secret of heaven.

When Zhao Zheng took Zhou Nuying out of the city, the eastern city in charge of Huangfu Jixun was already in full swing, and the most convenient direction for the defenders from Zhenjiang to enter the city was the east gate. Out of caution, Zhao Zheng informed Han Xizai of the news, which immediately aroused suspicion.

At that time, Li Jing planned to catch turtles in the urn, or the order just in case had not yet been issued, why did Huangfu Jixun not know the prophet, so self-aware?

So, Han Xizai just knocked slightly, first sent people to surround the mansion of the Huangfu family, and then came to the east gate with the holy decree to take a turn, and praised the Huangfu Jixun for his meritorious defense through the mouth of the lord Li Jing. Huangfu Jixun was immediately suspicious, and then when he saw the movement of the elite army of the Tang State, he knew that something was wrong.

As a senior wallgrass, how could he be willing to follow Li Jingda on an adventure? So he claimed that he had received the news that someone might rebel, so he was ready to report to the lord of the country. Then he firmly revealed some of Li Jingda's preparations and plans, and at the same time he also brushed himself off.

Han Xizai is an old fox, all he wants is to help the lord of the country determine the turmoil smoothly, and an emperor Jixun does not have to be too difficult. As a result, General Huangfu, who escaped the catastrophe, became the main force defending the city.

Not only did he not cooperate with the Zhenjiang army to open the gate of Jinling, but also dealt the heaviest blow. The plan all failed, Li Congjia's signboard did not appear, and it was expected that the cooperation between the inside and the outside would become empty talk.

A group of rebels, if they want to capture the city of Jinling, which is tall and guarded by a large army, how easy is it to say? Especially the military is in turmoil. At this time, even those Li Jingda's henchmen and generals were wondering if King Qi had deceived them? The ordinary soldiers were even more suspicious.

When the morale of the army is scattered, how can they still fight? Under the fierce counterattack of the defenders of Jinling, the rebels quickly became confused. When the army of King Qin arrived on the periphery, the rebels were completely in disarray. All of them scattered and fled, or were captured, surrendered of their own accord, or stubbornly resisted and killed.

Li Jingda fled in a hurry, while Huangfu Jixun personally led the chase and kill, staging a good scene of rapid transformation from close comrades-in-arms to enemies.

A sudden rebellion came to an abrupt end, and the people of Jinling were terrified when they heard the sound of soldiers. When they were all thinking about how to take refuge, the government announced the end of the rebellion, and the people of Jinling City were in a state of suspicion, like people who were fine, and the Qinhuai River was once again noisy.

When Li Congjia and Li Congshan stepped on the moonlight and returned to the city, the rebellion had ended, and the soldiers were already cleaning up the battlefield that was not tragic.

The brothers didn't have time to look more, so they hurried to the palace. As soon as they stepped into the palace gate, Empress Zhong and Mrs. Zhou pounced on them and asked anxiously, "Where are Empress E and Nuying?" ”

Li Congjia hesitated for a long time and gave an explanation. It means that he was deceived out of the city by Li Congqing and was almost killed, thanks to his wife and sister-in-law who reported the news and broke out with the help of Zhao Zheng, the envoy of the Song Dynasty. In order to save herself, the wife let herself go first...... His despicable behavior of escaping from the battle was covered up, and it became a kind and sad ** who had to leave in tears in order to take the overall situation into account.

Of course, in order to fulfill this lie, Li Congjia did not dare to slander Zhao Zheng anymore, but described him as a great benefactor who desperately helped him. Now I can only say this, if I go back and ask my wife to help me lie, she will definitely not refuse, and Zhao Zheng's words will not matter. I'm sure he'll get to know each other, otherwise......

Although Li Congjia was skeptical, since the sixth brother said so, it was not easy to dismantle the stage, and he remained silent. Knowing that the whereabouts of her two daughters were unknown and in danger, Mrs. Zhou had already cried into tears.

Empress Zhong looked at her son thoughtfully, and said calmly: "So, Empress E and Nuying may have been rescued by Zhao Shaoqing now?" ”
