Chapter 40: The Southern Expedition and the Northern Expedition
One stormy night, a popular riot, the government sent troops to suppress it, the people's aspirations, complaints, and finally triggered a response call from all over the country. Yun Entropy proclaimed himself the king of the south, all the way north, the south and the north, Tao Qingzhou finally appeared, it turned out that he served in the capital, and when Yun Entropy led the soldiers and horses to the city, he opened the city gate, and the inside and outside should be combined, forcing the emperor to the palace.
Tonight is the third sleepless night between me and Yun Zhang, from the beginning of the popular riot, to Yun Entropy's self-style, going north with the soldiers, converging with all forces, and supporting the capital, half a month has not been used.
Everything is too smooth, the people only see the appearance, only care about happiness, the world is finally going to change. But there are so many things they don't notice. For example, at this moment, I and Yun Zhang's worries, I can't eat or sleep.
Yun Entropy met me early in the morning, and it turned out that he had already premeditated, he had taken a fancy to my God of War helmet, the Sun Stone.
With the Sun Stone to fight, this battle is the people's desire, plus the oracle represented by the Sun Stone itself, this battle is too smooth, too smooth.
Before dinner in the evening, the front-line informant came to report, saying that Yun Entropy successfully captured the last important city in the capital, and there were no tragic casualties and losses, on the contrary, the court surrendered without a fight, and the corruption and deficit of the imperial court, and the abuse of traitors, everyone can see it, so this battle should be won, Yun Entropy is invincible, which is terrifying, and the general Zhai Hu who defends the city not only surrendered to Yun Entropy, but also defected to Yun Entropy.
I heard that several old heroes who were still sincerely admonishing were killed that night, which not only angered the people, but also lost the heartfelt cohesion, and everyone hooked up one after another, and for a while, the emperor was isolated and helpless. Sitting in the palace waiting for death, guarding his throne.
As a last resort, unless he dies, it is impossible for the yellow robe to get out, and it is impossible for the jade seal to be handed over to others.
In the letter, Yun Entropy told us that everything was safe, telling us not to worry, and when everything was settled, someone would be sent to pick us up.
But we can't see or touch, everything is just heard from letters, heard from other people's mouths, so what is the reality, what is the current situation of cloud entropy, we don't know. I can only pray sincerely in my heart all day long that everything will go well and he will return in triumph and peace.
Yun Zhang's family since Yun Entropy led the militia to fight in the north and south, no longer smiling, chanting scriptures and chanting Buddha all day long, kneeling down to worship the Bodhisattva, during the day, sometimes even the meal is personally sent by me, staring at her to eat, sleeping also I want to stare at her, otherwise these days, her body has already been unbearable, collapsed.
I stared at her and closed my eyes until I felt she was asleep, then got up and left gently.
His use is now obvious, but after these months of getting along, coupled with his life-saving grace, I still can't do enough to expose him and take back my God of War helmet.
Maybe after tonight, it's up to you to make or break it.
Whether Yun Entropy can successfully force the palace emperor to abdicate, or succeed in ascending the throne, tonight has become a critical night.
It's been a long time since I've closed my eyes and slept for a long time, and I'm going to sleep tonight, no matter what's in the dream, I'm going to face everything tonight with composure.
Lying on the bed in the room of Yunxiang Pavilion, the tip of my nose floated with lotus incense, and the beating nerves in my whole body gradually calmed down. I closed my eyes, I wasn't asleep, I was still conscious, but I still fell asleep.
My eyes were full of blood, rivers of blood, and bones everywhere, this was a battlefield where the army had just crossed the border and fought. The smoke of gunpowder, the flames of war, and the displacement of the people, whether the merits outweigh the faults or the excesses outweigh the merits, these are not yet investigated.
The city was devastated, the old and the sick were left, and the women cried miserably as they clung to the corpses of the orphans, and there were bursts of wails everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, it was the scene of Yun Entropy sitting on the back of a horse, holding a long sword in his hand, wearing a golden helmet on his head, and the sun stone was shining brightly, making it impossible to look at it directly. At this time, his armor was covered with blood stains that had not dried or had long since dried, and his face was stained with blood, including his blood and the blood of others.
The city gate was wide open, and Yun Entropy led the 100,000 militia behind him into the capital, and Tao Qingzhou cut off the flag of the Korean and Chinese military on the city gate, and cut off the head of a gatekeeper who was tied up and kneeling at the head of the city to show his determination.
After reading a series of practices, Yun Entropy's cold eyes and face no longer looked like the one I knew.
The military flag was soon replaced by the entropy of the military flag, and the soldiers waved the flag and shouted, waved the military flag, and beat the big drum one by one to boost morale and reinvigorate the morale of the army.
Yun Entropy was taken to the palace by Tao Qingzhou, picked up the wind and washed the dust, sent someone into the palace to inform the emperor, and made an edict to abdicate as soon as possible, otherwise what he waited for would be to attack the palace tomorrow, take his head, and enjoy his throne.
The people from all walks of life who came to converge from various regions have mercenaries to stand on their own, including many of the rebels who have surrendered.
Among them, there are many barbarians, such as some people who have brute force and force, such as Wu Jie. There is also Song Huaisheng, a scholar who relied on his mouth to bewitch the people to revolt and rebel.
The two rushed to Tao Qingzhou's mansion to get together, which was a night worth celebrating, and the four of them gathered in a room to drink and discuss how to proceed with the next plan.
Wu Jie laughed, a bowl of wine drained, and when he got up, he threw the bowl on the table, stood on the stool and shouted:
"Why don't you take advantage of tonight to enter the palace, take down the head of the Dog Emperor, and announce it to the world tomorrow, so that the people can really settle their minds, and if they don't die, they will send someone to inform him, why should they be so polite to him? ”
Song Huaisheng raised his wide cuffs to cover his face, took a sip of wine, sat down in his original position, looked around at the reactions of the other two, and then looked at Wu Jie, who was in high spirits at this time. He said what he thought in his heart and the words that had been tossed and turned in his mind several times:
"Brother Wu, this must not be regarded as drunken nonsense, although we are now taking advantage of the time, place and people, but everything has accidents, I think this matter has to be discussed in the long run, and it can be discussed seriously. ”
"Fuck you, you talk like a fart all day long, it stinks, I don't like to listen to you, you're indecisive, I really don't know how you got mixed up?
People like Wu Jie look down on the reader very much, he thinks that the reader is very urine, and he can think of 10,000 consequences of big things, he just wants to say that he won't really do it, and he only knows how to say some big truths left by the ancients to bewitch those people who have no brains.
The candles in the house were flickering, the door was heavily guarded, the four of them sat around the wooden table at the four corners, Yun Entropy's bloody armor had already retreated, and at this time he changed into a gold silk black clothes, and his gestures exuded danger and profundity, and there was a bloody stain on his face that was dry, but after repeated tosses, it had not healed for a long time.
He didn't say a word, but the other three couldn't ignore his existence when they spoke, they all had to look at his face from time to time, this time the new emperor candidate, there is no doubt, it must be Yun Entropy, his talent, his decision-making, his way of using troops, everyone sees it in their eyes and takes it to heart, for such a leading leader, although the other three are unwilling, they have never questioned and opposed it openly.
"Brother Wu said this as if a person who knows martial arts has some great skills, you have the ability to be brave and resourceful like Yun Gongzi, both civil and military, otherwise you don't have the qualifications to say anything about me. ”
Song Huai was usually squeezed in his life, but he can take care of the overall situation, think about it in his heart, and generally don't worry about him, but tonight is different, tonight is the day when everyone gets together to discuss major matters, but no one who can come to this day and sit in this position is not qualified to comment on his merits and demerits. Not even the heroes of all walks of life here.
"Hey? I said weak chicken brother, don't you get too far into it? Yun Gongzi? That's what I can compare? That's the man of destiny, the chosen one, you say one more word, believe it or not, I'll let you taste the taste of my sandbag's big fist now?"
Yun Entropy is someone he can't offend, no matter how unreasonable Wu Jie is, he doesn't know how to behave in the world, but he can still grasp the priorities in such a situation.
"Hahaha, joke, since we all know that Yun Gongzi is the chosen one, then at such a moment, we still have to follow Yun Gongzi's arrangement, we are all in such a field at this moment, and we don't have to worry too much, we are determined to win the palace." ”
Yun Entropy was still drinking sullen wine alone, and Tao Qingzhou laughed and said that he wanted to make a bowl together to celebrate, so that he could play a round and ease the atmosphere.
"Childe, why don't we do a bowl together, Childe doesn't have to worry too much, the palace is now full of our people, the people in the palace can't escape, how can the situation inside be clear, don't worry about tomorrow's plan falling through, let the emperor think about it tonight, it's just a means." ”
"Don't be impatient, remember not to the last moment, don't relax, the more to this moment, the more critical, since everyone has drunk tonight, it is better to drink this cup, each go back to the room to rest for a night, tomorrow morning to take the palace, then everyone can enjoy the wine and talk, have fun, but now why we have not yet achieved victory, listen to my advice, drink back to the room to rest. ”
"Yes, Childe is right, let's finish this cup, go back to the room to sleep, and tomorrow we will get up and seize the last banner of you!"
"Good. ”
"Well, listen to Childe. ”
The four of them returned to the room after drinking, Yun Entropy took the lead out of the door and walked westward, Tao Qingzhou also staggered to his feet, as if he was not lightly drunk, shook his head and waved his hands and said that he was going back to sleep, and let the remaining two go back to the room as soon as possible.
After coming out, he instantly sobered up, and the drunkenness just now was just pretending to be seen by the two of them, he beckoned, summoned two shadow guards, and commanded:
"Look at the two people in the house, when will I report the situation. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
Then he followed the pace of cloud entropy and quickly caught up. Yun Entropy walked slowly, dividing his usual step into three or four steps, and Tao Qingzhou quickly followed him side by side.
Yun Entropy was absent-minded tonight, he had something on his mind, and he never confided, Tao Qingzhou had planned with him all the way to today, and he could probably guess what he was thinking and thinking.
He took out a fan and opened it, swaying and fanning the shaded wind, looking at the dark road ahead, his house was never brightly lit, only a few places lit with lanterns, hanging high, and he couldn't see the road on the ground clearly, just like the road they had walked to the present, more darkness, less light, but they all faced difficulties and crossed the river in the dark.
"Walking through this dark road tonight, our road will be bright from tomorrow onwards. ”
"Hmm. ”
"Then why have you been looking sullen tonight, with something big hidden in your heart? But you miss your mother at home?"
"I miss it a little bit, and I think more about whether tomorrow's plan is going well. ”
