A thousand words are just gathered into one sentence of "cherished". I hope that in this turmoil, everyone can get out of the whole body, even ...... Including his eldest brother.

He knew that the third brother would never stay here to hide, and any persuasion would be in vain, and it would be better for his third brother to leave quickly. The third brother wants to let him stay here and make sure that he doesn't have to worry about his life, but how can he be a turtle with a shrunken head? How could the third brother be allowed to face danger alone?

No matter whether he lives or dies, right or wrong, he will always stand by the third brother's side.

He didn't know what role the third brother played in the eldest brother's rebellion, and he couldn't guarantee that the third brother was just prepared to deal with it, but did not push it secretly. He only knew that even if it was wrong, he would stand on the side of the third brother.

King Chen knew that King Jing was resolute, and it was useless to persuade him. Time is already short, and it is unintentional to persuade more on this doomed thing. Therefore, pulled by King Jing, Li Zhonggui twisted the secret door of the secret passage, and went out of the secret passage with King Jing.

After leaving the secret passage, King Chen and King Jing went to Huixianju. As soon as he walked to the door of Huixianju, he heard the sound of weapons connecting. It's not just a game of one or two people, it's a lot of people fighting. It was also accompanied by a morale-boosting shout: "Your Highness has an order, kill the thief who killed his father, and help the country!" Those who capture Prince Chen alive will be rewarded with platinum and given to thousands of households! Those who are the head of Prince Tichen will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and the marquis of ten thousand households will be given ......"

King Chen and King Jing glanced at each other, King Jing's eyes were quite sad and shocked, but King Chen's eyes were calm and waveless.

"Third brother, why did the eldest brother say this?" To this day, King Jing is still a little unbelievable.

"Come into the house and say." King Chen's voice was rather calm.

"Why do you say this...... "After entering the house and closing the door, King Chen said, "When the eldest brother stole your arrows and quenched the poison on the tips of them, he was ready to blame me." Maybe he thought that his father should have died at this time, and thought that the Chengtian Pavilion was just secret. ”

Strange to say, how can the eldest brother be so sure?

But none of this is important, what matters is the orders given by his eldest brother. It is a higher reward to kill him than to capture him alive. Eldest brother...... Is your enmity with me really to such an incompatible? Do you really want my life? It seems that in your heart, you and I are destined to fight to the death.

"Third brother, listening to the voice, I'm afraid it's not far away, and I don't know if the Royal Forest Army can support it? Third brother, I think you still go to the secret passage to hide, the hero doesn't suffer the loss in front of you! "King Jing is very worried about King Chen's safety.

"No," said King Chen, "they can't kill them." Since they used this as an excuse to raise troops, their father would never let them talk nonsense so red-mouthed and white-toothed. Wait for my father's side, there must be an explanation. Once the reason for their army is untenable, the morale of the army will be in turmoil. As long as we defend well at this point and delay for reasonable reasons, we should be able to hold out for a day or two. ”

The eldest brother definitely doesn't want to be accused of rebellion, and he must try to justify his name. The people who were loyal before and below must have been high-sounding. Once the reason for his army is untenable and the morale of the army is in turmoil, he will definitely be busy calming the morale of the army and will have no time to make further attacks.

There is no turning back from the bow, and the eldest brother will continue the battle, but he will have to find a more reasonable reason.

This time, in fact, the forces on the eldest brother's side and their side are comparable. On the eldest brother's side, almost half of the Royal Forest Army is already in control, and what they control is naturally the remaining half. On Mengshan, there were no other armies except the Imperial Forest Army. And they are in the same Mengshan Palace, and they even save the strength to attack the palace gate, and they are already in the palace directly.

The fight between the two sides is actually no different from hand-to-hand combat. The attack on their side was completely short guns and arrows of the infantry, and the defense on their side, except for the shields they were carrying, was completely a human barrier.

Now the Mengshan Pavilion is bounded by the Chengtian Pavilion, the west is the place where the eldest brother has occupied, and the east is the place where they defended. To put it bluntly, this battle was actually just a contest between the 1,500 Imperial Forest troops who accompanied it, and it looked like a game. But if you lose, the consequences are quite serious.

If there was any natural barrier on their side that was conducive to defense, it was the rockery and dense forest to the west of Chengtian Pavilion. As long as his men can successfully retreat to the rockery, it will be more beneficial to the defense of the Yongwang side.

Why do you have to hold out for two days? Because if his forces are transferred first, once King Yong's side does not take action, and instead frames him for colluding with the forces of the rivers and lakes to rebel, he will have no chance to defend himself at all. Therefore, even if his forces had enough time to reach Mengshan before the eldest brother acted, they would definitely not be able to move near Mengshan, and they could not even enter Sucheng, and could only be stationed in Huaizhou Xiaoxing Mountain outside the two cities.

As long as the eldest brother does something here, Lei Stop will immediately notify them. But with such a distance, it can take a day at the earliest. And the actions of the eldest brother here can't just be in the Mengshan Palace. Once the eldest brother decides to act, he will naturally send heavy troops to guard the mountain, so as not to have reinforcements coming up.

The eldest brother is not stupid, and when he raises troops in the palace, only the method of catching turtles in the urn is the safest. If he doesn't use it, but is used by the other party, then Weng Zhong will be the one who catches him. The eldest brother naturally didn't want to be captured alive. So at this time, outside Mengshan, there must be someone from the eldest brother who choked the passage up the mountain. His people want to attack Mengshan, fast, it will take two or three hours, slow, I am afraid that it will be possible for one day or two days.

The noise became louder and louder, and the sound of weapons connecting became more and more shocking. The silence inside was shaken by the noise outside......

"Knock knock...... Your Highness. "It's the sound of thunder.

"Come in." King Chen commanded.

"Hurry up and transfer someone." King Chen gave the token to Lei Stop and asked him to do it quickly. He also instructed: "Send Pujia back to Kyoto, and work with Cheng Dazhi to protect the mansion." ”

"Yes." Lei Zhu didn't dare to slack off, so he answered and hurried to do it.

As soon as Lei Zhu stepped out of the door, Zhuo Jiu came over. Seeing that the door was open, he didn't make those superfluous gifts, and came in directly to report: "Sure enough, as His Highness expected, the north mountain has been surrounded by regiments, and it is the soldiers transferred by King Yong from outside, not the royal forest army on our mountain." They don't seem to be very numerous, but each of them seems to be quite skilled and well deployed. Under the open mountain and in the dark forest, there are people guarding ......"

And the minions hid in the ground and listened to them, and they seemed to have some poison in their hands, so that when they heard it, they were so weak that they could only be slaughtered. Now these are indeed within our ambush range on the mountain, but in the woods, they are beyond our ambush range. Each of these people is dressed in night clothes, and they hide in the forest at night, so that they are not easy to be discovered. ”

King Chen frowned and said, "It doesn't matter if these places are not ambushed, it's just the poisonous ......."

It seems that we can't wait for reinforcements to come up before we start, so we can only strike first. At least half of the eldest brother's troops must be lost first, so that his people can maintain their strength when they attack, so that they will not be damaged too much.

"Where is the infantry commander Zhang Xianlin now?" King Chen asked.

"Master Zhang took the lead, led the troops to set up defenses on the rockery, and was fighting with King Yong's people." Zhuo Jiu replied.

King Chen nodded and asked, "The people on the other side, besides Huang Jingde, Ji Hongsheng, and Yu Haicheng, who else are there?" ”

"There is also Zhang Qilin, the patrol battalion management belt."

"Zhang Qilin......" King Chen muttered, "Sure enough, there is him...... Big brother's people have attacked the rockery? ”

"No, Master Zhang's department is properly guarded, and he is deadlocked at the bottom of the rockery at this time. Your Highness, the servants looked at it, and many people in the patrol camp were hesitant about this move, and they retreated when they found an opportunity, not doing their best at all. It's just that Huang Jingde and Ji Hongsheng's people are quite motivated, and they don't know how to mobilize their morale. ”

King Chen nodded and said, "This is not surprising...... You go and call Xu Pingou, the former commander of the palace in front of Chengtian Pavilion, and ask him to come to Huixian Ju immediately to obey orders. ”

"Yes." Zhuo Jiu answered, and hurriedly retreated.

Huang Jingde's people are all confidants of the Zhou family, and for some reason, they are very loyal. At this time, it is not surprising that he risked his life to fight. Ji Hongsheng was coerced by his eldest brother, including his generals, most of whom were favored or coerced by his eldest brother. As for the patrol battalion, there were two groups of people, one was the guards of the four city gates of Kyoto led by Yu Haicheng, and the other was the Kyoto patrol led by Zhang Qilin.

However, because the Four City Gates still need to be defended as usual, because Haicheng led the guards brought to Mengshan to protect them, it was only 20% of all the guards in the Four City Gates of Kyoto, which was actually of little use. The reason why the eldest brother bought him was because he wanted him to be a pair of eyes and ears on the battlefield, staring at the people of the Zhou family.

Thinking that Yu Haicheng himself was just out of helplessness, he had to be loyal to the eldest brother, and it was impossible for the people below to be loyal to the eldest brother. Those who don't do their best are the people on Yu Haicheng's side. As long as there is uncertainty in people's hearts, it is easy to break through.

In fact, the eldest brother's plan was wrong, and it was a big mistake. He should not use these Guards in the annex for convenience, but his own in the annex.

His own people are not in the court, so he naturally has no scruples about killing. But what about these people now, how can the two sides of the confrontation barely look up and look down on weekdays? Even if he was forced to do it desperately because there was no way out, in his heart, he was afraid that even those who swore allegiance to the Zhou family would be quite disgusted and complained.

But in any case, this battle will not be easy after all. Everyone knows that there is no turning back when you open a bow, and either you will be executed as a rebel, or you will be a meritorious person. No matter what the reason is that they do things for the Yong King, once they do it, they can't turn back.

……

In the Chengtian Pavilion, Li Zhonggui quickly stepped into the secret door. He reported: "Your Majesty, there is a fight outside...... Be...... It is the person of His Royal Highness King Yong. It's about crusading against the thief who kills the father. Those who capture His Royal Highness King Chen alive will be rewarded with 100 gold and given to thousands of households; The head of His Royal Highness the King of Tichen will be rewarded with a thousand gold and given to the marquis of ten thousand households. ”

The emperor's closed eyes opened slightly, and his expression was quite calm. After a moment of silence, he untied the dragon talisman on his waist and handed it to Li Zhonggui: "Send it to King Chen, all the soldiers and generals on Mengshan are at the disposal of King Chen." ”

"Yes." Li Zhonggui solemnly took the dragon talisman and hurried to Huixian's residence.

As soon as Li Zhonggui came out of Chengtian Pavilion, he saw Xu Pingou walking briskly in the direction of Huixianju, and felt that it was inconvenient, so he didn't catch up. Sure enough, I saw Xu Pingou enter Huixianju. After a while, he walked out of Huixian's residence, followed by King Chen's personal servant Zhuo Wine......
