Chapter 174: Chaos abounds
"The king can secretly recruit troops and wait for the opportunity!" Leng Yue Dao Gu smiled, "When the king becomes the emperor, don't forget the slave family."
"Of course not!" Yan Li grabbed the slender waist of Leng Yue Daogu and said proudly.
……
Central Plains, somewhere.
Hong Jin is giving alms to the victims with the Heavenly Star Dao people.
There was a great famine here because of the great drought. However, the local parents and officials not only did not care, but instead colluded with the landlords and encroached on the peasants' land, resulting in a large number of displaced people.
Hong Jin learned from the Tianxing Daoren, killed several landlords, and opened the official warehouse to release grain.
"Benefactor!"
"You are our reborn parents!" The people were grateful to them.
"Your Excellency! Please show us a way out!"
Hong Jin said to everyone, "Everyone, this big swallow is rotten, the officials and businessmen collude, and the people are fishy! Now that Emperor Yan has been killed, no one can control this group of dog officials anymore! Everyone follow me, we will kill the rebel who usurped the throne and rebuild a prosperous Dayan!"
At this time, the people still recognized Dayan very much. Therefore, Hong Jin did not say that he wanted to overthrow Dayan, but said that he would rebuild Dayan.
"My lord, as long as you take care of our food, we will do whatever you say!" The displaced people all said that they would follow Hong Jin.
Hong Jin has been co-opted for many years, and there are already tens of thousands of people under his command.
He couldn't wait to ask the Heavenly Star Daoist, "Dao Chief, can we have an incident now?"
"There's no hurry." The Heavenly Star Daoist brushed his beard and said, "Although Great Yan is corrupt, it still has great power, and if it is the first to cause an incident, it will inevitably be suppressed."
"When the other forces consume Dayan's strength first, it's not too late for us to start up again."
"What the Taoist said is, then let's occupy the mountain as the king first and develop our power!" Hong Jin thought so.
……
Da Yue Clan, when the news of Emperor Yan's death reached Da Yue Clan, Zhang Yi couldn't believe it.
"Emperor Yan is dead? She's the Great Yan Emperor, a powerhouse in the Holy Realm!" Zhang Yi thought that Emperor Yan would rule for at least a few hundred years, but he didn't expect her to die suddenly.
"The Great Yan World has begun to be in chaos!"
Zhang Yi found Vizhe again, and at this time Vizhe had already learned the news.
"Vizhe, you're right, there's still a chance!" Zhang Yi said.
"Amitabha." "What does the king want?"
"Self-established king, of course! My Dayue clan is strong and strong, why should I surrender to Dayan?" Zhang Yi was also dissatisfied with the current Yan Emperor Yan Ming, his most beloved woman was killed by Yan Li, and let him break the eucalyptus, he simply let Yan Li be grounded! Zhang Yi has always kept this hatred in his heart.
Moreover, the Dayue clan is in the middle of the Silk Road, and Zhang Yi has long been jealous of the rich Yan State Business Travel!
As long as they occupy this place, the Dayue Clan will be able to rise strongly, and even occupy Dayan in reverse!
Vizhe smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the time has come! Now that the Western Regions Protectorate is completely in the hands of the Great King, the Great King only needs to occupy the northern frontier and control the Hexi Corridor and the grassland, so that he can completely block the northwest direction of Great Yan, and then send troops into the customs to conquer the Central Plains!"
"This king has wanted to do this for a long time!" Zhang Yi was overjoyed, he had been secretly training the army all these years, and he was waiting for this moment. ….
……
A few months later, a large caravan entered the customs from the Western Regions.
This caught the attention of the guards.
"What do you do?" The guard will take someone to investigate.
The leader dressed in gorgeous clothes and said, "We are the envoys of the King of the Great Moon Clan, and when my king heard that Emperor Yan Bintian, he was extremely sad and personally led the guards to Yanjing to mourn Emperor Yan!"
As he spoke, Zhang Yi appeared on horseback in person.
Seeing Zhang Yi, the guard general said respectfully: "The last general will meet the king of the Dayue clan, the envoy of the Western Regions!"
"Well, switch it!" Zhang Yishu said.
"Yes!" The guard general did not suspect that Zhang Yi was not only the envoy of the Western Regions, but also the prime minister's own son
own people.
When the soldiers of the Dayue clan entered the pass, Zhang Yi's face suddenly changed, and he ordered, "Do it!"
The soldiers of the Otsuki clan immediately took control of the pass, and the defenders were caught off guard, and they were all controlled.
"I didn't think it could be so easy!" Zhang Yi entered the city without much effort, he controlled the Hexi Corridor all the way, and persuaded the northern Xinjiang town guards to surrender.
If the envoy of the northern Xinjiang town did not surrender, Zhang Yi personally led the troops to attack, breaking more than a dozen cities in a row, and the envoy of the northern Xinjiang town asked the imperial court for assistance.
However, things were in a mess at this time in the imperial court.
After Yan Ming succeeded to the throne, he really wanted to deal with these things. But the courtiers fought for power and profit, and quarreled non-stop.
Troops were going to be sent to quell the rebellion early in the morning, but they delayed for three months before sending troops out.
Before the reinforcements arrived, the envoy of the northern Xinjiang town surrendered directly to Zhang Yi because he couldn't stop the pressure.
At this point, Zhang Yi has already held an army of one million and swept the Central Plains from the northwest!
Yan Ming had to conscript millions of soldiers to resist Zhang Yi's army.
……
Northern.
The Turkic tribes are moving south.
After the surrender of the northern garrison, the northern defense line was in vain, and they rushed all the way and occupied a large area of land.
"Not only the grassland, but we also want to take the territory of Donghu!" The Turkic Khan led his troops to the Krulun River Valley, and it was here that the prelude to the demise of the Xiongnu was unveiled.
"Kill!" Vicious Turkic soldiers fought their way into the Krulun Valley.
The tribes of Donghu have been peaceful for a long time, and they have long forgotten to fight on horseback, but have learned from the nobles of the Central Plains and drank and enjoyed themselves.
It was clear that 50,000 defenders were guarding the Krulun Valley, but they were killed by 10,000 Turkic cavalry and lost their territory.
After the Turkic khans occupied the Krulun Valley, they continued southward.
Fight from Xianbei Mountain to Wuhuan Mountain!
"Khan, the Turks have come here!" In the king's tent, his subordinates reported to Hao Zhen, the Wuhuan Khan.
"Prepare horses for this king and go on the march!" Hao Zhen raised his knife and killed it.
Hao Zhen led people to confront the Turks head-on, and his own soldiers were much stronger than the other Donghu soldiers, but the Turks were even more vicious.
The harsh environment of the Far North has cultivated their ferocity like wild wolves and their fighting power like bears.
The Turkic Khan was even more powerful, and he was able to suppress Hao Zhen in the Holy Realm.
Hao Zhen fought with the Turkic Khan for seven days and seven nights, and in the end, he was defeated by the Turkic Khan, killed by the other party, and sacrificed to the beast god with blood.
……
"Abba was killed by the Turks?" In the capital, Hao Ziyi, who learned the news, thundered like five thunderbolts.
Zhang Beichen's death had already exhausted her, and now that her father had also died tragically, she was extremely saddened. ….
Hao Ziyi packed up and prepared to leave.
"Mother, I'm going too!" Daughter Zhang Yun also brought weapons and war horses.
"Good!" Hao Ziyi did not refuse.
Zhao Yun looked at them and reminded, "You guys are going, I'm afraid it's hard to come back!"
Hao Ziyi's attitude was extremely resolute, and said, "After the death of my husband and Abba, I have no worries in the world. I will go here to avenge Abba, and to keep the place where my people live."
"Since you have made up your mind, then Lone will not be persuaded to do so, and the journey will be safe." Zhao Yun said.
"Take care, too!" Hao Ziyi took Zhang Yun to the Donghu realm.
Zhao Yun saw the message reminder of the simulator a few months later.
[Hao Ziyi and Zhang Yun gathered the remnants of Donghu, defended half of the territory, and began to compete with the Turks. 】
The Donghu side is stable, but the northwest direction can't hold on.
[Zhang Yi's army was like a bamboo, all the way into Guanzhong, and a million army approached the capital. 】
……
Yanjing, in the palace, Yan Ming was already a little flustered.
At first, he wanted to suppress the rebellion, but the suppression was unsuccessful, so he had to retreat to the next best thing, wanting to defend the country.
I didn't expect that the generals sent were worse than the other, and they couldn't stop Zhang Yi's soldiers at all
Everyone has hit the doorstep, and if it continues like this, Dayan is even in danger of destroying the country!
"Ladies and gentlemen, the enemy army has already arrived at the gate of the capital, who has a strategy to retreat from the enemy?" Yan Ming asked the ministers.
But the ministers all bowed their heads and said nothing.
Yan Ming couldn't help but feel a little regretful at this time, he knew that he should have tried his best to stop his mother when he killed Guo Guang, Qingbai, Li Fu and others.
Although several of them have made big mistakes, they can still stand up and preside over the overall situation at this critical juncture.
Now, none of these people who have been promoted have seen strong winds and waves, who can take on the heavy responsibility?
"Say, can't you do it? So what do I want you to do?" Yan Ming scolded.
At this time, a minister said, "Your Majesty, the enemy army is fierce, it is better to move the capital to the south, fight hard, and then kill back."
"Move the capital? You will forsake the city and flee?" Yan Ming never expected that the idea given to him by the courtier was to let him escape!
"Bastard, the enemy has hit the doorstep, and you don't want to retreat from the enemy, but you want to run away! What about your blood?" Yan Ming scolded.
When he finished scolding, the courtiers still said, "Your Majesty is angry. Dayan's national strength is still there, and it is just an expedient measure at this time. When we regroup, it's not too late to fight back!"
Yan Ming really wanted to be angry with them, but he couldn't find anyone who could use it.
Just when he was helpless, the palace people reported: "Your Majesty, King Zhao is waiting outside the palace and asks for an audience."
"Auntie is here? Invite her in!" Yan Ming seemed to have found a life-saving straw and hurriedly shouted.
He almost forgot that his aunt, Zhao Wang Zhao Yun, is also a terrible character.
It can be said that he is the most authoritative elder in the world! Back then, his mother Yan Qingwu was not Zhao Yun's opponent, if he hadn't relied on his father, it would be difficult to say whether he had a big Yan now!
Zhao Yun walked up to the hall, she had already changed into a military uniform, wearing a long sword at her waist, and she was heroic, and no one dared to look at her. ….
"Auntie, you're just in time!" Yan Ming greeted him and said in a respectful tone, "I just want to invite my aunt to come over and discuss, what should I do when the enemy soldiers are coming to the city?"
"Naturally, it's to meet the enemy!" Zhao Yun said.
At this time, a minister said, "That Zhang Yi has millions of soldiers, and he is unstoppable, and there is no chance of winning against the enemy at this time. It's better to move the capital to the south and make a decision!"
Zhao Yun looked at him and asked, "What official position are you?"
"The Book of War." The man replied.
"At the moment of the great enemy, you don't think about the enemy, but want to abandon the city and flee, what use do you want?" Zhao Yun didn't say a word, directly drew his sword and cut off the head of this military secretary!
Blood splashed in the court, and the frightened ministers turned pale, and said in horror, "Protect Your Majesty."
Yan Ming was also startled, but he still calmed down and shouted, "Shut up!"
"Who wants to move the capital?" Zhao Yun asked the ministers, and all the ministers lowered their heads, not daring to look at her!
Only then did Yan Ming understand that this was the real emperor. Compared with my aunt, I am too much worse!
"Auntie, I will give you the right to command!" Yan Ming said immediately.
"Okay." Zhao Yun did not refuse, she knew very well that with Yan Ming's ability, she was afraid that she would not be able to handle this matter. I had to go out on my own.
[You immediately rectify the defense of the city, mobilize the army and civilians, and at the same time issue the world with the order of Emperor Yan, and allow officials from all over the country to recruit troops and horses to aid the capital. 】
Zhao Yun knew very well that delegating military power to the localities would definitely lead to the separation of local forces. But if this is not done, Dayan will perish sooner.
Now we can only tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, and keep the capital.
[Officials from all over the country responded, and in a short period of time, there were as many as one million soldiers from all over the country, coming towards the capital. 】
Dayan has prospered for many years, and its population has multiplied many times, and it is not surprising that during this period, there were millions of troops.
……
Zhang Yi was also anxious at this time, and he urgently ordered the soldiers to attack the city. However, Yanjing City was well defended, with sufficient grain and grass, and it besieged the city for several months, but it failed to make any progress.
At this time, troops from all over the city had already arrived to confront Zhang Yi's army.
[It's been another few months, and Zhang Yi's army is still attacking the city. The number of troops to aid the capital has reached millions, and you think that the time has come, and decide to go out of the city to fight Zhang Yi in a decisive battle. 】
Outside the capital, Zhao Yun and Yan Ming confronted Zhang Yi with an army of millions.
Yan Ming persuaded, "Brother Xian, you and I are brothers, why is this so?"
Zhang Yi sneered, "Brother? Do you really think of me as a brother? I know, you and that Yan Li only think I'm a barbarian in our hearts!"
"Today, this king will let you see how I, a barbarian, have subverted your Dayan world!"
Zhao Yun looked at him coldly and said, "Zhang Yi, you are Lone's righteous son, Lone gives you one last chance, surrender now, Lone will not kill you."
"Auntie." Zhang Yi was very respectful to Zhao Yun, and he said, "It's not that the child has to rebel, it's that he Yan Ming is not qualified to sit on this throne! If Yan Ming is willing to give way to me, the child promises to treat the people of Yan Kingdom like his own children!"
"Yan Ming is the orthodox succession and cannot be changed." Zhao Yun said.
"Then auntie, don't blame the child for being ruthless!" Zhang Yi shouted loudly, "Kill!"
"Kill!" The armies of both sides were slaughtered.
[Under your command, the Yan army broke the enemy army and took the advantage. 】
Zhang Yi thought that he was proficient in military affairs and could easily take down the Yan army. But he didn't expect that when the Yan army was handed over to Zhao Yun's command, its combat effectiveness would be so strong.
[Bi Zhe personally led people to fight against Zhao Yun and was killed by Zhao Yun! ] 】
Zhang Yi was also struggling to kill the enemy, and when he came back to his senses, his own soldiers had been slaughtered.
"Zhang Yi, surrender." Yan Ming persuaded.
"No, this king will not surrender!" Zhang Yi gritted his teeth and said.
"Kill!" Yan Ming gritted his teeth and still made a decision.
[Zhang Yi was killed by the Yan army, and the rebels were defeated! ] 】
Dayan held the capital, but the situation did not improve much.
[Queen Lanxiang heard the news of her son's death and announced that the Da Yue clan would be inseparable from Da Yan from now on. 】
[The leaders of the Qinwang army in various places met Emperor Yan one after another and asked Emperor Yan for benefits. 】.
