Chapter 50: The Battle of Tanzhou

Shu Kingdom, Imperial Palace.

In the Chenghuan Palace.

Meng Chang was furious with the battle report.

Zhao Jiliang, Han Baozheng, Han Jixun and others were standing with their hands down, listening to the emperor's swearing.

"Who's going to tell me, can any of you tell me what's going on?"

“……。”

"Who gave Zhang Ye the power to attack Gyeongju, who was it? Who is it? ”

“……。”

"I can't wait to make this dog slave ,......。"

In Meng Chang's gritted teeth and shouting, no one dared to interject easily.

Meng Chang was tired of scolding and began to calm down.

Once he calmed down, Meng Chang began to feel a little cool.

It must have been a conspiracy.

His subordinate Wuxin Jiedu envoy attacked Gyeongju, which also belonged to the territory of Shu, without authorization.

The Jingnan soldiers, who also belonged to the territory of Shu, were divided into two routes, one side attacked Guizhou in the west, and the other attacked Tanzhou in the south.

And he, the emperor of Shu, has just learned the Tao now.

If no one would instruct, if no one would be his backstage, Zhang Ye would not dare to be so presumptuous.

This is Meng Chang's conclusion.

Seeing that Meng Chang's anger gradually subsided, Zhao Jiliang stepped forward and played carefully: "Please also ask Your Majesty to calm your anger and take care of the Holy Body." The old minister thought that since the incident had happened, there should be a measure to deal with the aftermath as soon as possible. ”

Meng Chang glanced at everyone present, "With Zhao Xiang's meaning, what should I do?" ”

Zhao Jiliang also glanced at everyone, and bowed his head and said: "The state of Chu is now full of rebellions, wolf smoke everywhere, and it is precarious, and the old minister thinks that at this time, even if His Majesty orders Zhang Ye to stop, he will not be able to save the king of Chu." It is better to make mistakes and make mistakes, so that Zhang Ye can capture the counties of Gyeongju, and truly bring the entire Gyeongju into the hands of the Great Shu State, so that it can make up for its mistakes. ”

"If according to what Zhao Xiang said, how should I deal with the aftermath of marrying Princess Yuqing to King Chu Baili Wuji?"

"It's ....... The old minister was arrogant, and asked His Majesty to issue a holy decree again, reprimanding the king of Chu for his ineffective rule under Baili Wuji, causing turmoil in the country, cutting off his prince, and giving marriage. ”

Zhao Jiliang is a minister who cares about his life and a benchmark among the old ministers. As soon as he showed his position, more than half of the officials present began to follow suit.

Meng Chang knew in his heart that he was afraid that Zhang Ye would have a share of the credit for attacking Gyeongju without authorization, and he remembered that it was this old man who proposed to move Zhang Ye as the envoy of Wuxin Festival.

Meng Chang has been on the throne for several years, and he has seen a lot of such things, and Meng Chang has always learned from Liu Chan to pretend to be crazy and stupid to let this group of old immortal dogs eat dogs.

But now it's different, I have henchmen and military power.

"Oh? ......" Meng Chang replied softly, his eyes swept towards Han Baozheng, Han Jixun and others.

Han Baozheng and Han Jixun are not fools, and they naturally have the obligation to be confidants.

What the opponent is in favor of must be opposed, and what the opponent is against must be in favor. This is the duty of the henchman.

Han Baozheng stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has objections. ”

"Han Aiqing, please speak."

"What Zhao Xiang proposed is not appropriate, Your Majesty must not do this. First of all, the envoy of Wuxin Jiedu attacked Gyeongju without authorization, and then the king of Nanping attacked Tanzhou. ”

Han Jixun quickly stood up and said: "The minister seconded the proposal, and the king of Chu opened up the territory for Dashu and captured the land of Chu. Although it is now in war, the Black Flag Army under its command is still there, and the Black Flag Army is there, and the overall situation is still in the hands of King Chu. If he falls into the well according to Zhao Xiang's intentions now, not only will His Majesty's reputation be discredited, but once the King of Chu recovers, who will guarantee that the King of Chu will not throw himself into the Jin State or the Southern Tang Dynasty, and who will resist the 100,000 Black Flag Army's troops at that time? ”

Meng Chang nodded lightly, of course, he was happy in his heart, these two Han Aiqing were indeed eloquent, and it was Meng Chang's greatest pleasure to make Old Man Zhao deflated.

"What does Zhao Xiang think?"

Zhao Ji's conscience said, Meng Chang is now full of wings, and many things have his own opinions, but today's things are related to the life of the family, if once Baili Wuji eases up, his old ministers are afraid that they will die and have no place to be buried, and now only by dragging the emperor Meng Chang into the water together, with the power of the entire Shu Kingdom, can he compete with it in the future.

"Your Majesty, the old minister still insists on his own point of view."

This is a forced showdown. Meng Chang knew in his heart that now was not the time for a showdown.

"Let's discuss this matter again, I'm tired, let's step back first."

……。

December 26.

The fourth day of Tanzhou's defense of the city.

Gao Baorong still has more than 30,000 troops in his hands, surrounding the gates of Tanzhou City on all sides.

However, Gao Baorong still concentrated on attacking the north gate in accordance with Sun Guangxian's plan.

has already cut down a Jingnan military general who retreated without authorization.

Gao Baorong looked at the towering Tanzhou city wall in the distance.

Those soldiers are strings of black dots.

The black dots keep disappearing and then filling them up.

The shouts were heard in the distance.

Gao Baorong actually had a strange emotion in his heart.

It is so pleasant to watch life pass away.

……。

Baili Wuji has already gone up to the city tower in person.

Everywhere the eye looked, there were black pressed human heads.

The crossbowmen kept firing arrows, and the Jingnan army under the city kept falling, and someone kept making up for it.

It's like an endless swarm of locusts.

In the blink of an eye, the Jingnan army had rushed to the outside of the city gate.

At this time, the soldiers of the special operations capital began to throw grenades in unison.

The scene was quite spectacular, and countless black subway eggs fell down the city like hailstones.

It's like a cluster of sparks exploding, taking away human lives one by one.

The Jingnan Army's charging team was only stranded for a breath under the rain of grenades.

By the time the second batch of grenades was dropped, the Jingnan Army's vanguard had already rushed to the city gate and the base of the city wall.

One after another, the ladders were erected, and two rushing cars side by side began to accelerate.

The power of the grenade really didn't make much use at this point.

Killing a few, dozens, and tens of thousands of people is like a drop in the vast ocean.

Baili Wuji knows that Gao Baorong has left no room for it, all the strength has been concentrated, Tanzhou City, he is bound to win.

Jing Nanjun began to climb the ladder, rushed the car and began to hit the door.

Some of the soldiers of the special warfare capital on the towers of the city walls began to be armed with lances and knives.

Some of the recruited sturdy ones began to lift up the log and roll down the sturge.

He also lifted the boiling oil pan and poured it down.

The huge boulders were smashed down the city without looking at them.

The crossbowmen began to reach out and shoot downward.

The scene is like purgatory on earth.

……。

The Jingnan Army's offensive was paused, and at this time, the crossbowmen of the Jingnan Army who had caught up with the front had already entered the firing range.

Began to diffuse suppression of the defenders on the city walls.

The crossbowmen of the special warfare capital had to give up shooting at the Jingnan army under the city and suppress the Jingnan army crossbowmen instead.

Arrows from both sides rained down like swarms of locusts, taking countless lives with them.

Crossbowmen who pressed each other fought in a group.

The siege soldiers of the Jingnan Army continued to attack the city, and the car continued to crash on the door.

One by one, the ladders were knocked down and erected again.

One of the rushing cars was ignited by the explosion, and the second began to be refilled.
