Uncle Lu is Lu Qinghong, the sharpshooter on the Wuhuan battlefield back then, and his right-hand man - although he is old, it is precisely because of his age, even if Lu Qinghong has not been a commander before, but in this kind of city defense war, his rich battlefield experience is urgently needed by the forbidden army with groups of newcomers.

After all, even Yang Jue himself, except for yesterday's battle to seize the palace, has not experienced a real war.

…… In fact, last night's seizure of the palace could not be regarded as a war at all, but the nature of the sneak attack was more serious.

After understanding Su Shaoge's intention, Jian thought for a while and said, "Uncle Lu can lend it to you, but he can't go with you right away, I have to tell him a few words!" ”

Su Shaoge breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It should be!" ”

"Uncle Lu, in your opinion, is Su Zhiyong's move really not confident in relying on Yang Jue to defend the city, and he is here to invite you to come out, or is he playing other ideas?" After sending Su Shaoge away, Jian Xubai did not go to the flower hall where the guests were entertained, but went to the study where he usually handled official business, and ordered someone to invite Lu Qinghong to come over, and told him about the conversation just now, and finally frowned, "After all, that Yang Jue only took advantage of the fact that He Wenqiong was in the palace and it was inconvenient for him to command the forbidden army, and the Su family managed to assassinate many colleagues for him, so that he could master the forbidden army in the imperial capital!" ”

And if Su Shaoge didn't lie, that is to say, once Lu Qinghong presided over the defense of the city, he would have the opportunity to transfer the forbidden army in the city to his side - after all, Yang Jue's control over these forbidden troops was not very high - when Lu Qinghong held the military power and held the imperial capital, wouldn't he be able to help the Yanhou Mansion to oppose the guest, simply kill the Su family, and support King Su to ascend the throne?

As for whether King Su will take revenge on the Yanhou Mansion for the Su family after he ascends the throne, don't forget that there is still the Empress Dowager!

Although King Su is the grandson of the Empress Dowager, Jian Xubai is just a grandson, but there is a way to love over time, the only grandchild that the Empress Dowager has personally raised is Jian Xubai, what is the situation and what good things over the years, what will she never forget is Jian Xubai - the Empress Dowager may not allow Jian Xubai to kill King Su, but she will definitely not allow King Su to be unfavorable to Jian Xubai!

And once he loses the support of the Su family, even if King Su has good qualifications, how can he fight against the Yanhou Mansion, which has the favor of the Empress Dowager inside, and the military power and the ministers seconded by the ministers?

After all, even if Jian Xubai's reputation in the court is not as good as Gu Shao, in the end, after all these years of eunuch sea, there are elders such as Duanmu Old Lady and Jian Limiao behind him, without the Su family and the Empress Dowager Su, where can King Su pinch him?

At that time, the Su family will become a complete wedding dress for others!

Will Su Shaoge be willing?

"Master Hou is worried, Su Zhiyong's plan is to take the opportunity to transfer a certain family so that he can deal with Yanhou Mansion?" After Lu Qinghong heard this, he thought for a moment, and said, "A certain family thinks that Su Zhiyong should not dare to do this at the moment - King Su has not yet ascended the throne, and the question of status, even if there is an edict left by the first emperor to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, it must be recognized by the elders of the clan before this matter can be achieved!" ”

"And when it comes to the elders of the clan, who can have more weight than the Empress Dowager?"

"The Empress Dowager has always favored Lord Hou, if she knew that the Su family had harmed Lord Hou, she might not continue to support King Su!"

This is not only because the Empress Dowager dotes on Jian Xubai's grandson, but also because if the Su family does this, they are obviously despising the Empress Dowager - and if the Su family refuses to give the Empress Dowager even the least respect, what does it mean?

It means that the Su family doesn't take the royal family seriously at all!

There are many reasons why the Empress Dowager fell to the Su family and chose King Su, but one very important point is: King Su does have the potential to be a Ming monarch!

In the final analysis, when the Empress Dowager chose a new monarch, she stood on the position of the royal family.

But if the Su family doesn't even pay attention to the royal family, what if King Su has the potential of Mingjun? Will the Su family give him a chance to truly reign over the world?

At that time, I am afraid that the better King Su is, the better it will end - Princess Su Nie Wuying came from an embarrassing background, and there is no maiden family that is enough to compete with the Su family, and King Su's own power can be said to come from the Su family.

Once the Su family had bad thoughts about him, King Su and his wife had no power to resist!

How could the Empress Dowager tolerate such wishful thinking by the Su family?!

"But last night, when Su Zhiyong came to Xiang Shanyao to take the 'Wind' token, he clearly expressed his threat." Jian Xubai said intently, "It can be seen that the Su family is already wary of my Yanhou Mansion!" In this case, how could he give Yanhou Mansion the opportunity to get involved in the forbidden army? ”

Jian Xubai actually didn't believe that Su Shaoge would turn his face with Yanhou Mansion at this knuckle, not to mention that although Lu Qinghong was a veteran of the battlefield, if he wanted to rely on this bit of manpower in the Hou Mansion to block the attack of the forbidden army in the city at this moment, it would be difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice - Su Shaoge really wanted to attack Yanhou Mansion now, and the result of Lu Qinghong's absence in the mansion was estimated to be similar.

It's just that Su Shaoge has always been scheming, and Jian Xubai doesn't trust him, so it is inevitable to suspect that his so-called borrowing will be detrimental to Yanhou Mansion at this moment.

Lu Qinghong said: "In fact, a certain family thinks that unless someone takes the initiative to stir up trouble in the city now, not only will the Su family not directly attack the Yanhou Mansion, but even those who have attached to the Wei family in the past will not move!" After all, this time the imperial capital was besieged, it was a sudden incident, and the imperial capital must be panicked at this moment! The Su family's manpower, equipment, grain and grass to defend the city will not be sufficient, and the people in this city are panicked enough, if it is rumored that a large family has suffered a disaster for no reason at this time, how can other families not worry that their own families will have the same experience? ”

"At that time, if someone has a heart to incite - don't even instigate, as long as most people are afraid to a certain extent, causing a situation similar to the camp roar, not to mention that Su Zhiyong admits that he is not good at using soldiers, he is naturally handsome, and it is impossible for him to control the overall situation in such a situation of internal and external difficulties!"

Speaking of this, his face was a little subtle, and he said, "So a certain family thinks that the most likely situation is that the confidant He Wenqiong mentioned by Su Zhiyong is not an ordinary general." ”

After a pause, "I'm afraid it's a brilliant person-Su Zhiyong is worried that this imperial capital city won't last three or five days under his attack, so he will come to our mansion for help now!" ”

You must know that because there is a forbidden army guarding the imperial capital, first, there is no need to deploy other troops, and secondly, in order to prevent the usurpation of the throne by force, it is necessary to have enough time for the forbidden army to react and prepare after receiving the news that there is an army marching to the imperial capital without an edict.

So the nearest army, even if it is a fast horse back and forth, don't think about it for five or six days - the meaning of this fast horse is to rush for eight hundred miles, change people all the way without changing horses, and there will be no accidents!

But on this kind of snowy day, the official road is mostly icy, and it is very slippery, even if it is a master of riding, he does not dare to let go of his feet and gallop all the way, in case he accidentally stumbles on the horse, and even the people and horses are estimated to end well!

What's more, will the forbidden army outside the city not send people to stop and kill the messengers sent by the imperial capital to ask for help?

Taking a step back, even if the imperial capital's request for help was sent out in time, it was unlikely that the army that received the news would immediately rush to the rescue: because it was the imperial capital that had the problem.

According to the rules, without the edict of the Son of Heaven, no matter whether they win or lose, they will all end up in the Yi three clans!

Although the Su family has a deep background in the army, it is impossible for everyone to support them - what are they doing to support King Su to seize the throne? It's better to go on it yourself.

Even if the person who supports them has a prominent position in the military, it always takes time to convince his subordinates.

What's more, how easy is it to allocate a large army - grain and grass are heavy, soldiers are gathered, what does not need time?

After all, Da Rui has been peaceful for a long time, and the last war was the crusade against Wu Huan, and it has been four years!

How easy is it for a slackened army to get into the groove right away?

The most optimistic estimate is that the reinforcements will arrive near the imperial capital and directly confront the forbidden army outside the city, at least it will take ten days and half a month!

They have to be willing to come, because people will definitely have to settle accounts: in case the Su family can't hold on for these ten days and half a month, they will be a step too late to arrive desperately...... So what else are they doing here? Do you want to die with the Su family?

Even if the Su family has the skills and these people are willing to send troops, the imperial capital has to last for at least ten days and half a month, otherwise it will still be difficult to quench the thirst of the near water - although Jian Xubai told Su Shaoge before that if he can't hold it, he will protect his family and break through.

But in fact, both Jian Xubai and Su Shaoge know that if they can break through, they will never give up the imperial capital!

First, even if someone protects it, it is dangerous to break through after all. Especially on cold days, pregnant women and children, they can't run fast when they take a carriage, and the forbidden army outside the city takes turns to defend the imperial capital, which can be said to represent the dignity of Da Rui, and the blade mounts are the best, and they are also the most complete.

How could a carriage outrun a cavalryman?

Second, King Su was forced to abandon the capital before he ascended the throne - or before he could ascend the throne, which was a blow to his prestige and the prestige of the Su family, which can be imagined!

And the Su family has put so much effort into supporting King Su to ascend the throne, exposing a large number of shadows that have been buried for many years, and playing so many hole cards.

So even if Su Shaoge was jealous of Yanhou Mansion, he would rather choose to ask for help from Yanhou Mansion than the imminent problem of guarding the imperial capital.

After all, they have a business for the forbidden army, and Lu Qinghong wants to take advantage of the time to command and defend the city, and they may not have a backhand-it is better than being defeated and retreating and risking to break through the siege, and after breaking through, it is better to have to pinch it.

In the end, the Yanhou Mansion has supported King Su so far, hasn't it?

"Actually, it's your grandfather who is gone." In Lu Qinghong's words, in the Jihou Mansion at this moment, Su Shaoge was sighing with his nephew Su Bofeng, "Otherwise, just one Yu Qinghan can call us like a great enemy?" ”

Yu Qinghan is the current leader of the forbidden army outside the city, He Wenqiong's henchman, and the talent of the general that Su Shaoge is afraid of.

Of course, if Ji Guogong is still here, Yu Qinghan will not be enough to see in front of him.

In fact, even if it is the former military department Shangshu Linghu Deyin, or Su Shaoge's eldest brother and Su Bofeng's father Su Shaoxin, the Su family does not need to worry.

The tragedy is that none of these people are there - Su Shaoge and Su Bofeng, the two uncles and nephews, are still the exceptions of the Su family, and their talents in marching and fighting are very miserable, and they don't have talents in this area around them, but now they can only count on Lu Qinghong, the old man of Yanhou Mansion!

This really made them almost want to vomit blood, their family's glory for several dynasties was probably obtained by fighting on the battlefield!

It's just that these two of them are the unscrupulous descendants of the Su family!

At this moment, Su Bofeng saw his uncle's depressed appearance, and comforted him: "Anyway, the messenger has been sent!" They are all people who are familiar with the terrain near the left side of the imperial capital, and the letter harrier has also been released in the night last night, with our previous rainy day arrangement, presumably within ten days, there will be a large army to come to the rescue! Even if the Yanhou Mansion had ill intentions, could it still make the forbidden army in this city die for them in just ten days? ”

"Even if Lu Qinghong can do it, the reinforcements will be outside the city at that time, and Yanhou Mansion will dare to mess around?"

"The most important question now is whether Lu Qinghong can defend this imperial capital!"

Su Bofeng couldn't help but stroke his forehead when he said this, "Yang Jue has been a colleague of Yu Qinghan for several years, when we asked him, what did he say?" He wasn't sure that he would be able to hold it for two days - but I hope that Lu Qinghong can fight for some energy! If he can't, then we can really only risk breaking through! ”
