Chapter 773: For prevention, why not worry

In the list of "Red Leaf Banquet", there is no Lingshan and Tongpu two guards commanding their families, and these two guards are stationed near Tangquan Palace, presumably the Son of Heaven has already subdued them.

For those who are already committed, it is clear that the threat of family members is no longer effective.

And as Yu Feng expected, there are not too many people in this part.

In addition, many pro-guards such as Jinwu, Huben and other general banners, hundreds of households and other family members are impressive, this part, are forbidden to defend the imperial city, it seems that the Son of Heaven does intend to use it to coerce part of the first emperor's order to serve the pro-army guard department of Ci'an Palace.

Although most of the palace guards are loyal, but just in case, Yu Feng still suggested that the Empress Dowager order Yu Liu to temporarily remove this part of the commander, and promote others to take over, so as to prevent people from being disturbed by opponents and rebelling, of course, they did not hide their reasons, most of the people whose family members were "detained" by the Son of Heaven gritted their teeth, secretly hated the Son of Heaven for being immoral, and actually used treacherous tactics to be disloyal and unjust.

Most of the people who can enter the palace are relatives, especially those who can be awarded the leader, and most of them are the children of Xunwang, who know that today's turmoil is very important, although they have been temporarily seized power, they also express their understanding, and tell the subordinates to obey the order, and try their best to defend the imperial city at the same time, if possible, to save the family.

According to that list, Yu Feng negotiated with King Xian, Yu Liu, Uncle Jia, Su Xun, etc., and became more and more sure that there were not many "diehards" in the hands of the Son of Heaven, and Huang Tao rated, except for the "tenants" they inserted, there were only about 20,000 people who were truly loyal to the Son of Heaven who were willing to be born and died, among them, there should be some who must stay in Lingshan to protect the safety of the Son of Heaven, and the military strength of the palace will not exceed 20,000.

"Even if there are 20,000, if the scattered attack is not enough to defeat the palace guards of the imperial city, and Sun Gong, a minister of the Shenji Battalion, has been entrapped, the Son of Heaven should use firearms." Yu Feng proposed.

"It is estimated that Huang Tao will lead most of the people to attack head-on from the Ping'an Gate, there are six officials in the Thousand Steps Corridor, some of them are still Qin clan henchmen, Huang Tao uses them to make us cast a mouse trap." King Xian said.

"Ci'an Palace is close to Longzong Gate, so the west gate of the imperial city should also be the focus of Huangtao's assault." Yu Liu added.

The Ping'an Gate in the south, and the Xi'an Gate in the northwest of the imperial city should be the focus of Huang Tao's assault.

"Don't forget that there is also a Liu Wei, he also has more than 1,000 guards in his hands, and he is good friends with the commander of the Beicheng Soldiers and Horses, and there are 1,000 people here, and it is estimated that they will go to the north and east." The copper ruler in Uncle Jia's hand was drawn from Bei'anmen to Dong'anmen.

"Father and uncle should focus on the Peace Gate, here, must not be lost." Yu Feng frowned slightly: "And the eldest brother, we must quickly defeat the Xi'an Gate Rebellion, our eyes and ears are guarding the West City, and if we want to go out of the city to persuade the Jingwei Ministry, it is the most convenient to go through this gate." ”

Su Xun promised: "We will live up to our mission." ”

Although everyone expected that Huang Tao would divide his heavy troops to Xi'an Gate to assault, but the pre-arranged Ministry of Health could also be released by the ears and eyes of the Xicheng guard, inside and outside, it was not difficult to quickly defeat it, the Shenji Battalion was in charge of firearms in Beijing, although Sun Gong was a minister, only one, and the other minister was of course in the hands of Ci'an Palace, and it was impossible to be in the same stream with Sun Gong, Sun Gong used his authority to smuggle firearms for private use is limited, and Xi'an Gate does not have a city platform, and Xi'an Gate is inside, and there is a large area of water separated from Xihua Gate of Miyagi, Bulky weapons such as artillery were inconvenient to move in quickly, so Yu Feng concluded that Huang Tao would concentrate his heavy weapons on capturing Ping'an Gate.

Although the list is in hand, the Empress Dowager has made arrangements to wipe out the eldest son and nephew of the female dependents who are controlled to control the officials' clan, so as to use it as a hindrance, but it is also necessary to send an envoy out of the city to persuade the commanders to surrender, and not to think that the backup will force the palace again when the Son of Heaven misses a blow, otherwise everyone does not know the situation, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not obey the orders of the Son of Heaven in order to protect themselves, and the only way to get out of the city smoothly is Xicheng.

"My father and uncle should delay in time, and it will be difficult for most of the Huangtao to retreat to Xicheng in order to protect it." Yu Feng said.

"Who is it appropriate to convince the Guards?" Uncle Jia asks the key question.

Just because the candidate is the key, although Su Xun is the son of the Duke of Weiguo, although he has an influence on the guards in the name of the Duke of Weiguo, he is still young, and he was only a civil official in the middle of the scholar in the past, although he is a palace guard, his position is still short, and the weight is slightly insufficient.

"I'll go." Yu Feng said neatly: "The eldest brother and Cai Jiangsi will go with me." ”

Uncle Jia frowned slightly, the king of Chu was deeply trusted by the first emperor and was well known, as a prince, he was naturally noble, and he was also the son-in-law of the Duke of Weiguo, and Su Xun and Cai Zhen accompanied him...... The king of Chu has the advantage of insightful people's hearts, and with his talent and identity, it is naturally enough to serve the public, but the king of Chu has just recovered from a serious illness, and he was originally weak and polite, in case of mutiny or someone disagrees with the provocation, and the turmoil is sudden, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get out safely, in case there is any mistake......

Looking at King Xian again, he was also quite worried, Uncle Jia wanted to dissuade him, but he couldn't think of a more suitable candidate than King Chu for a while, but the Empress Dowager, who had been silent for a long time, had already made a decision: "It's so decided, the mourning family will write a decree in person, and then grant Yuanyang Gaozu the sword, you go with the sword, if anyone dares to do something that violates the order, you can make the pro-army kill on the spot for the crime of rebellion!" ”

Yu Feng first turned around to receive the order, and said to the Empress Dowager: "The garrison near the city can be pacified and collected by the ministers, but seeing this list, the Son of Heaven seems to have the intention of subduing Tongzhou, Xianghe and other Jingwei, although they are far away, it is not a near worry, and it cannot be ignored. ”

With the information at hand, Yu Feng became more and more convinced that the Son of Heaven was biased towards the capital Jingying, and he was playing the abacus of a quick battle and a quick blow, but he still did not ignore the more guarded posts such as Tongzhou and Xianghe, but fortunately, he was well prepared, even if he was seriously ill, Yijing did not neglect these personnel under the reminder of his subordinates, for example, Wang Jiong, the commander of Tongzhou, although he loved his wife very much, the Son of Heaven sent his wife to Tangquan Palace as a hostage, and Wang Jiong was really a threat, but Wang's wife Han was well aware of righteousness and was a model of virtuous and filial piety, Wang Jiong's parents died early, and his brothers were all released, but he is extremely filial to his father-in-law, and Han's father has a close friend, who is Uncle Jia's uncle, if Han's father and Uncle Jia's uncle come forward together to persuade Wang Jiong to surrender, it can be said that he is 100% sure.

As for the rest of the people, there are also many in-laws who are very involved in the Wei Guo Mansion - the Su family has been in charge of Jingwei for decades, and this relationship network is really not to be underestimated, although this time it was ordered by the Son of Heaven, and Wei Guo Gong himself is not in Kyoto, if the Son of Heaven can really beat people off guard, it will be fine, but Yu Feng has already taken precautions, once the list is in hand, it is not difficult to persuade the Son of Heaven one by one, which is enough to break the unpopularity of the Son of Heaven and use the means of threatening the female dependents.

The Son of Heaven detains people's families, and he also knows that it is not enough to threaten the ministries to force the palace, and although he is premeditated, in order not to startle the snake, the action is only early today, and there is not enough time to coerce the various departments to attack, it should be when Huang Tao moves, after ordering the closure of the city, the Son of Heaven can personally come forward to persuade the guards of the capital Beijing camp to stand still, at least to contain the troops will not attack the inner city of Jinyang and form a flank attack with the Beijing guards.

As for the distant Tongzhou, Xianghe and other guards, it is impossible for the Son of Heaven to go separately, and most of them only send personnel to win over, intending to settle the situation in Kyoto and use these forces to lay a victory and eliminate the subordinates.

But once he loses, it is difficult to guarantee that the Son of Heaven will not retreat elsewhere, and threaten the troops to raise troops with hostages in his hands, making a desperate bet.

Yu Feng's admonition is actually to cut off the back road of the Son of Heaven, and he has a hunch that when he leaves the city smoothly, he is likely to face the Son of Heaven.

Because once the Son of Heaven learned that Huang Tao was defeated, the first thing he thought of should be to threaten the nearby Beijing camp to raise troops and save the defeat, then he would form an "encounter battle" with him.

This time, he wants to win the hearts and minds of the army from the hands of the Son of Heaven.

"For Tongzhou and other health departments, Niangniang can send envoys to declare that the imperial court will definitely be able to ensure the safety of their families." Yu Feng said again at this time.

The Empress Dowager was quite worried: "Yuanyang has a strategy? "You need to know that this promise is not nonsense.

"Yes, the minister has inferred that if Huang Tao is defeated, the Son of Heaven will inevitably go to the military camp in the suburbs, and most of the guards in the Tangquan Palace will accompany him, even if the Son of Heaven will lead the hostages, it will only be for the nearby Beijing camp, and most of them will stay in the Tangquan Palace...... Tianchawei has an internal response in Tangquan Palace. ”

Once the Son of Heaven leads the crowd out of the palace, only the Queen Mother and the concubines remain, with the temperament of the Son of Heaven, the captive of the Queen and other concubines in hand is absolutely not a threat, but the Queen Mother is the biological mother of the Son of Heaven, he must take care of it, otherwise he will behave too privately, and people's hearts will fluctuate - even the basic filial piety can be abandoned, who will believe that the Son of Heaven will keep his promise and reward his deeds?

Moreover, as soon as the Son of Heaven leaves, most of the hostages will also be rescued.

In fact, Su Xun had already arranged manpower to ambush near Tangquan Palace, and when most of them left, they immediately rescued the hostages, and caught the Son of Heaven by surprise.

That's why even if you don't have a list in hand, the odds are still 80 percent.

Ci'an Palace discussed all the way and ordered many actions all the way, and Huang Tao finally began to implement the plan, just after noon, I heard that Tongzhi ordered the closure of the city.

Many courtiers, who had just gone to the market to finish their lunch and returned to the official office leisurely, were surprised when they heard about this incident, and before they could inquire carefully, they heard that there was a noise outside, and the people on the street were frightened and avoided, and suddenly the army was in chaos.

Distributed in the long street of Ping'an many yamen, poured out of the inexplicable officials, saw the Qingque Avenue iron cavalry in front, the first soldier ran back, straight to the direction of Ping'an Gate, can't help but stunned, there are timid scattered to avoid only quietly looking, there are also righteous people who follow to rush to the imperial city.

Some people who didn't know what was going on were so confused that some people even screamed: "Isn't it the people of the Northern Plains who have invaded Kyoto?" ”

This caused a wave of consternation.

It is true that the common people are not able to know the defense of Dalong in detail, and they are really frightened by the fact that they have lost their naturalization not long ago, and seeing this situation, they will inevitably suspect in the direction of the foreign enemy's invasion.

However, Yin Wu Shengchong of Shuntian Mansion dispatched in time, ordered the officials to persuade the people to avoid trouble, and opened his voice to prohibit rumors: "The people should not be chaotic, let alone suspicious, it is definitely not a foreign coward who invades the territory, avoid the home, and those who are outside the city can go to the Shuntian Mansion for refuge." For a while, there were more gongs and drums, and those shops on the street immediately came back to their senses in a short period of stunnedness, and closed their doors one after another, regardless of whether the customers in the shops were dispersed or not.

Seeing the sudden turmoil, whether it was a nobleman or a commoner or a ruffian, he had no mind to do so, and no matter whether he was nearby or not, he gave priority to avoiding trouble, and discussed a lot across the wall.

In particular, one to mention is Huang Tao's third son Huang Meng, this person is usually unscrupulous, because this matter is important, Huang Tao didn't plan to tell Huang Meng the truth, the only reuse is Erlang - Huang Ke "pedantic", not only can not be used, just beg him to fall asleep and not to make trouble, and Huang Meng is slightly better, at least he will not use the set of benevolence, righteousness and etiquette to question Huang Tao, it is because Huang Meng also got a task, that is, to take care of the family house today, the Jiang family is crazy, and the eldest daughter-in-law Wei does not need to care, Huang Tao just let Huang Meng keep an eye on his eldest son Huang Ke.

Who knows that in Huang Meng's concept, the eldest brother is just a scribe who has no power to restrain the chicken, and he has been drugged, and everything will be fine when he binds his hands and feet.

It's just to make an appointment with a few gentlemen, first go to the wine shop to satisfy your appetite, then go to Ping An Fang to listen to a few storytelling, and in the evening, just go to Yihong Street to have fun.

I didn't know that I was staggering in the wine shop on the edge of Qingque Avenue, and suddenly heard that there was chaos outside, and most of the gentlemen were newborn calves who were not afraid of tigers.

A dazzled man pointed to the general who was riding with a sword and raising his arms, and shouted: "Are you from the Northern Plains? ”

Huang Meng had a good amount of wine, and he didn't dazzle him, and when he heard the words, he turned around and slapped him in the face, and almost didn't shoot that gentleman downstairs directly: "You're a native of the North Plains, that's my father!" ”

Someone actually high-fived: "Huang Daddy is mighty!" ”

And there were people on their backs: ??!!!

Afterwards, many people firmly believed that the rebellious felony was Huang Tongzhi, but at the same time, they also concluded that Huang Tongzhi's third son was indeed innocent, especially the shopkeeper of this wine shop, who almost did not change his career to go to Ping'an Fang to open a storytelling.

That's all for later.
