These days, the people in Chang'an City are panicked, and they are frightened overnight, although the imperial court tries their best to cover it up, but the people still know that there is a thief rebellion in Dugi Road, and this thief rebellion spreads rapidly, expanding to most of Henan Province. Under such circumstances, Luoyang was besieged, and it was seen that the exchanges between Chang'an and Kanto were about to be interrupted.

It was Li Longji in the palace, and now he didn't have the heart to rehearse the neon clothes and feather dance, and he became repetitive and diligent, and he connected to inquire about the situation in various places. But the news he got was not a good thing, although Yang Guozhong obstructed it in every possible way, Li Longji still realized that there was a big problem in this empire.

"If I could be twenty years younger...... No, as long as you can be ten years younger and have enough energy, why worry about the world? On this day, after he retired from the court, he returned to his dormitory, and when he saw that only Gao Lishi was by his side, he couldn't help but sigh and said.

"Yes, if the slave is ten years younger, he will go out to oversee the saints," replied Collis.

"Old, old......"

Hearing Li Longji's muttering, Gao Lishi's heart moved, and he couldn't help but glance to the northwest

Li Longji is now meeting courtiers in Xingqing Palace, so the East Palace where the prince is located is in the northwest of Xingqing Palace. Although Li Longji is old, the crown prince in Xingqing Palace is in the prime of life...... If this is heard by others, I am afraid that something will not be good.

Thinking of this, Gao Lishi said: "Where is the saint old, the saint is still a dragon and a tiger, and there is no difference between the past few days and when he was young."

Li Longji put his hands behind his back and shook his head, how could he not hear the flattery, he really felt old.

After a while, he asked faintly: "General Gao, you say, let An Lushan go south to King Qin...... How is it

Gao Lishi's heart froze, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground: "This military and national affairs are not something that slaves can say."

"Why can't you speak, let you say, you will say, you old thing's cunning, Mo Shi is here in me"

Gao Lishi peeked at Li Longji's eyes, lowered his head and said, "The slave maid heard that An Lushan is not the same in front of the saint and behind the saint. ”

"You mean, this man is treacherous, and he will be against him?" After many years of mastering and serving, Li Longji naturally knew what Gao Lishi was thinking, and glanced at him: "Over the years, An Lushan has sent a lot of things to your house, right?" ”

"The saint is sage, discerning, slaves and maids are guilty, corrupt and bribed...... However, although the slave and maid received An Lushan's things, they did not dare to be disloyal to the saint" Gao Lishi's voice trembled, and begged for mercy again and again: "The slave and maid have a pure heart for the saint, and they can learn from it every day"

"I know that you can get up, if it weren't for this piece of pure heart, how could I tolerate you, the person by my side," Li Longji sighed: "It's just that in the past few days, some people have come to the table, saying that Ye Chang has no soldiers in his hands, and it is difficult to suppress the rebellion in Dugi Dao. I sent someone to check, it turned out that it was not only Dugi Province and Henan Province, but also Gyeonggi Province, and there were many complaints after leaving Chang'an Baili, and there were only two people left......"

"Two people?"

"One is called Chen Sheng, and the other is Wu Guang." Li Longji snorted: "The country has become like this, and it is all the fault of the prime minister."

Gao Lishi's heart moved, and it was obvious that Li Longji seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Yang Guozhong.

"Therefore, some people persuaded me to summon An Lushan to enter the king of Guanqin, and the other border generals were either too far apart, or the troops in their hands were insufficient, only An Lushan, with more than 100,000 soldiers in his hands, he only needed to bring 60,000 people into it, so that he could sweep away the smoke and dust and return the world to a peaceful ......."

"Never, saint, who is the one who enters this, don't listen to it" Gao Lishi suddenly panicked: "An Lushan is still difficult to identify, and now the Central Plains is empty, he brings strong soldiers into it, who can control it?" ”

This is a problem that Li Longji has also been worried about. If he hadn't been worried about this, he would have sent someone to summon An Lushan back, where would he wait until now?

"Looking at it now, I'm afraid that it won't work anymore, today I have to play Li Cheng's secret, saying that there are 100,000 thieves in Dugi Dao, and there is a tendency to encircle Luoyang, Ye Chang's troops are insufficient, and they are all new soldiers, I am afraid that it will be difficult to defend Luoyang. He deliberately persuaded Ye Chang to abandon Luoyang and guard Anyang, isolate the Yellow River, and prevent thieves from reaching the north of the Yellow River...... If the thieves really besieged Luoyang, they could only summon An Lushan inside. ”

"Ye Chang has been supervising border affairs for a long time and is familiar with the art of war, he will definitely be able to win ......"

Li Longji shook his head, he didn't distrust Ye Chang's ability, but he didn't have enough elite soldiers in his hands, what was the use of Ye Chang no matter how strong he was? He didn't make some things clear to Gao Lishi, in fact, the secret envoy who summoned An Lushan back had already sent Lu after he learned of the danger in Luoyang.

It's just that after sending Lu out, he was uneasy in his heart, and he was hesitating whether to recover the secret envoy.

He was irritable and about to go to the other hall, but Gao Lishi got up and was about to follow, but he saw a small eunuch dangling there at the side door.

Because Li Longji is in a bad mood, no idle people dare to appear in front of him now, this little eunuch must have something to report. And at this time, the only thing that can make the frightened little eunuch run out is the military situation ahead.

"But there's a military intelligence report?" Colliers asked.

The little eunuch knelt down and said: "Saint, General Gao, great joy, great victory in Luoyang"

"Luoyang Taijie...... Ye Chang defeated more than 100,000 thieves with only 2,000 recruits? Li Longji didn't wait for Gao Lishi to change his words, walked out of the hall quickly, and asked the little eunuch directly.

The little eunuch presented a military report, and Gao Lishi tilted his neck next to him to peek at it, and then took a breath: "It's really a big victory."

It was indeed a great victory, and if the battle report was not false, it proved that the thieves who besieged Luoyang were not only defeated, but also lost most of them

Relying on Luoyang City, with the elite assault thief army, the big and small thieves killed nearly 100 people, more than 100,000 thieves all collapsed, and there were countless escapees

"Ha Lu Ha Ha Ye Chang really lived up to my expectations" Li Longji saw this battle report, looked up to the sky and smiled, his face full of joy.

The siege of Luoyang has been resolved, which means that the imminent crisis in Henan Province has been lifted, and what we have to see now is Cheng Qianli.

Ye Chang was able to defeat 100,000 thieves with only 2,000 recruits, and Cheng Qianli led tens of thousands of forbidden troops and united soldiers to the south, and he should fight no worse than Ye Chang.

"Congratulations to the saint...... Congratulations to the saint" Gao Lishi was also smiling beside him: "Ye Chang's talent is all discovered by saints, and he is really a saint who is blessed with all the heavens."

Li Longji smiled and nodded: "Sycophant...... But I like it, this kind of good news cannot be enjoyed by me alone, you let people spread it all over the capital, and also reassure the hearts of the people of the capital. As long as there is no chaos in the capital, Ye Chang and the others can peace of mind to quell the thieves. ”

"Luoyang good news, the thief leader Yuan Ying led 100,000 thieves to besiege Luoyang, Dongmu County Gongye Chang broke it with 4,000 troops, beheaded 6,000, and captured 50,000"

This good news quickly spread out, and when he got the news, Ji Wen was taken aback and hurriedly came to visit Yang Guozhong

Different from the last time when he ate closed-door soup, this time Yang Guozhong heard that he was coming, and immediately came out to greet him, and as soon as they met, he split his head and said: "Ye Changsheng is victorious, do you know the news?" ”

"It is spread everywhere in Beijing, how can I not know how to do it" Ji Wen's face was also gloomy: "Yang Gong, in this way, I am afraid that there will be twists and turns in the matter of summoning Dr. An into Beijing."

Yang Guozhong hesitated for a while, and without waiting for him to respond, Ji Wen said again: "Ye Chang tried his best to turn the tide, if he was given all the credit, Yang Gong thought that how the imperial court should reward him, should he promote the county prince to the county king, or the prime minister?"

This is a fatal blow to Yang Guozhong, Ye Chang has cleaned up the scattered hearts of people in Luoyang before, which has made his situation very embarrassing, if it is not for the sudden riot, I am afraid that Ye Chang will take advantage of the victory to pursue and implicate the clues on him. Now Ye Chang has made more military exploits, and it is not a military exploit on the border, but a military exploit that has turned the tide under Li Longji's nose, in addition to entering the dynasty as a prime minister, what other rewards can appease the heart of the world?

With Ye Chang's ability, if he really enters the court, what else can he Yang Guozhong do except stand aside, and be deaf and dumb like Chen Xilie a few years ago?

"Impossible," Yang Guozhong said gloomily from between his teeth.

"So Dr. An must be recruited, Dr. An will quell the civil unrest, and at most he will be promoted to the title, it is impossible to enter the court as the prime minister, as long as he dilutes some of Ye Chang's contributions, so that Ye Chang will not be so prominent." Gwenn is equally eerie.

"How keen is Ji Gong on this?"

"Yang Gong thinks that Ye Chang is ambitious, and I can have a good end?"

The two exchanged words briefly, Yang Guozhong nodded, and said in a deep voice: "I will find a way, you just have to rest assured"

Some people in Chang'an City are dying, and Luoyang City is in a carnival.

Luo Yuanguang wiped the sweat from his forehead, although he had something in his heart, but after arriving in Luoyang, he couldn't help but be infected by the fanatical atmosphere in the city.

"Horn horn" is the sound of firecrackers burning in the brazier in front of the house.

"Knock knock, knock knock" was the voice of the lantern team.

The whole Luoyang City is filled with the smell of wine and drunkenness, which is full of streets and alleys. On top of those Qinglou Painting Pavilions, I don't know how many scholars will turn their full of talents into shallow chanting and singing with red faces and red lips.

It's no wonder that these people and scholars are like this, these days, and even in the past two years, good news like this has always made people feel that it is too little. If before Ye Chang came, the deceived people in the city still had some resentment towards Ye Chang, then now, the people in Luoyang City are not only not resentful, but full of gratitude - those refugees who fled into the city from outside the city, but told them about the tragic situation after the thieves looted, burning, killing, robbing, raping, adulterous and slaughtering, as long as they can imagine the evils, almost the same, just outside Luoyang, within Dugi Road, where they can see, it happened.

If these lawless thieves break into Luoyang City, and the people in the city can survive half of them, then thank God

"What are you doing...... Why, and what's the joy? Although Luo Yuanguang was shouldering a heavy responsibility, he couldn't help but pull a jubilant Luoyang people and asked.

"Lang Jun is from out of town?" The people were amazed and said, "I don't know about this?" Three days ago, Ye Gong summoned the divine soldiers, and defeated the thieves outside Luoyang City, 4,000 broke 100,000, killed with blood flowing and pestle, and more than 100 large and small thieves were awarded the head, and the captured thieves alone had tens of thousands of people, and now they are all imprisoned in the prison outside the city

"Prison City?"

"Ye Gong chose a place and asked these thieves to dig a trench and build a prison city." The people sighed twice: "It's also Ye Gongren, if I change me, where will I give these thieves a way to live, and directly cut off their heads to build a Jingguan to deter those lawbreakers."

Luo Yuanguang heard this, his spirits perked, he was still some distance away from Luoyang yesterday, he had already heard the news of Ye Chang's victory over the thief army here, but it was still a little far away from Luoyang at that time, he thought that the rumors might not be true, and now when he arrived at the edge of Luoyang City, he heard the same news, which made him feel that he had come to the right trip.

"Ye Gong really summoned a divine soldier?" Luo Yuanguang asked.

The man being questioned looked at him, took a few steps back after a while, and then suddenly rushed to a group of officers on the side of the road: "Official, official, this person is suspicious"

Although he won, the guards in Luoyang City were not loosened but tightened, because the thief leader Yuan Ying escaped after all. From the mouth of the captured thief leader, it was learned that the thief still has a lot of internal response and eyeliner in Luoyang City, and he is currently being arrested. When the officers heard this, they immediately screamed and swung their swords and pounced on Luo Yuanguang.

Luo Yuanguang was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Let's move slowly, I have something to say...... I am the secret envoy of the army, and I am the secret envoy who came here on the orders of General Cheng."

"It doesn't matter if you are a secret envoy or not, first dismount us, abandon the blade, and we will take you to discern

The officials were not moved at all, they just shook their swords towards Luo Yuanguang, Luo Yuanguang saw this situation, and secretly praised in his heart: "No wonder Ye Gong won and Cheng Gong was defeated...... Cheng Gong claims to be cautious, but he still gives the thief a chance to take advantage of it, Ye Gong seems to be young and frivolous, but in fact he is extremely careful"

He raised his hand and signaled that he would not pull out his waist knife: "Since you say so, please take me to meet Ye Gong, or someone who can speak under Ye Gong's account."

Ye Chang was in the barracks at this time, watching those recruits drill. Now of course, there is no need to run outside the city to lure thieves, so the drills are held in the city, the big victory three days ago, greatly boosted the morale of the city, in addition to the original 2,000 recruits, and recruited more than 5,000 people, so that Ye Chang has nearly 10,000 soldiers in Luoyang City, just to defend the city, it is enough. Some of these recruits came from Luoyang City, but most of them were ordinary people who had fled from the destruction of their homes by the thieves, and they hated the thieves to the core, and they dared to kill and fight much more than the original 2,000 recruits.

"Ye Gong, these soldiers are much more obedient, don't look at the late army, I think it is many times stronger than the scum recruited some time ago, they are all in a hurry to go out to fight the thieves, not like those scum, not enough success, more than defeat"

Xin Jinggao said to Ye Chang in high spirits, although the big victory three days ago was beautiful, there were two fly in the ointment, one was to let Yuan Ying escape, and the other was that the two thousand recruits who cleaned up the battlefield actually fought for the prisoners' property, and Xin Jinggao felt very humiliated because he led the team. Although he has not followed Ye Chang for a long time, he also knows that such treacherous people as Lu Dao will only corrupt military discipline in the army, and it is extremely difficult to train them into a strong army.

"I understand what you mean, those 2,000 people are just a full number now." Ye Chang was about to say, when he suddenly saw Li Yuan hurriedly come in: "Lang Jun, there is a person who claims to be Cheng Qianli's secret envoy and asks to see Lang Jun"
