Chapter 34, Mengjin City is in turmoil
"Fourth brother? Why are you here?"
Lu Chengyi, who has never had a sense of existence, looked like he was bowing his head at the moment, and he thought for a long time before he hurriedly said, "The Marquis of Guangping next door to our house has already come back before dark, our eldest brother, but he hasn't come back until now!" I asked the Marquis of Guangping, and he had never met the eldest brother...... You're the big brother, you won't be able to meet with any accidents, right?" Chinese Net
His words made Lu Zhaoyi immediately vigilant.
The Guangping Marquis Mansion is not far from the Lu family, and often Lu Chengye and the Guangping Marquis go back and forth together, but today, it is the Guangping Marquis who came back first, but Lu Chengye has never seen anyone.
This is obviously not normal!
Could it be ......
Thinking of what might happen tonight, plus Lu Chengye is his brother, no matter how bad the relationship between their brother and sister is in the eyes of outsiders, but just with this relationship, there is a reason for Wu Chong to be unfavorable to him.
"Oops!" Lu Zhaoyi's heart was cold, and he immediately set off to rush out, while explaining to Lu Chengyi, "The gate in the Hou Mansion is closed tonight, all of them stay in the mansion, and I will let some of the subordinates come back to protect the hospital......
Lu Chengyi didn't understand what she was trying to say, but he instinctively felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly listened to her explanation and announced to each other in the Hou Mansion.
Outside the Hou Mansion, the firelight shone on the originally dark foot of the mountain, and after a short period of blindness, she saw a group of shadow guards, Yongwei, and the people of the World Alliance gathered here.
When Lu Zhaoyi appeared, Qu Zhiyun and Shadow Spirit suddenly rushed to her, and it was the first time she saw that they were so flustered.
"What happened to Luo Jing at this time?"
Qu Zhiyun replied: "In Luojing City, there are people from the guards everywhere, and the people in the Gouchen Courtyard have all withdrawn and gone to Yongpingli to join everyone, at this time, Shadow Wind and Shadow Snow are in command, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Shadow Ling took over the conversation again, "Right now, it is rumored throughout Luojing City that Gou Chenzi, the Duke of Zhenguo, is dead, and he was poisoned by you, in order to rob the power in the hands of the Duke of Zhenguo, Wei Wei Jiang Yu has issued a killing order to you in the name of "avenging the Duke of Zhenguo and strangling the demon girl", and Luojing's people are looking for you all over the world."
Hearing the narrative of the two, Lu Zhaoying couldn't help frowning, she didn't expect that things would evolve to such a point.
Spread rumors within Luo Jing so that the whole city can deal with him?
Hum!
"How's that going in Yonghei-ri?"
"Shadow Wind and Shadow Snow are planning to leave Luojing City with their people." Qu Zhiyun replied, "Feng Manlou has also withdrawn. As for the Qinyu Pavilion being relatively hidden, Jiang Yu couldn't find it for a while, so he let the people who didn't have time to withdraw hide there."
"Good!" Lu Zhaoyi took a deep breath and looked at the crowd of people with torches in front of her and the group of torches at the bottom of the mountain, she knew that the shadow guards and armor guards stationed outside Luojing City, a total of 30,000 horses, and 5,000 Yongzhou guards, were all here.
"Tell me to go down, rush to Mengjin Pass within an hour, let everyone pay attention, and don't trample on the crops when you leave!"
After she finished saying this in a serious tone, she turned her head and looked at Wei Meng and Du Yu beside her.
"Wei Meng, you take your five thousand Yongwei to the Tiger Prison Pass to receive reinforcements...... Du Yu, you go to Yanshi County to stand by, establish rear supplies, and tell the county order that if there is anyone disobedient in the county, for treason, he will be beheaded immediately."
As soon as this sentence came out, Du Yu immediately responded, and without saying a word, he pulled a horse and left.
But Wei Meng was a little skeptical, "Seven Ladies, where are there any reinforcements?"
Lu Zhaoyi just smiled, and didn't explain it directly, so he asked him to do it.
Soon, the 30,000 soldiers and horses gathered at the foot of the mountain moved slowly in the night, and finally disappeared silently into the vast night.
Late at night, people are quiet.
When the 30,000 horses approached the Mengjin Pass, on the other side, on the outskirts of Mengjin City, a carriage stopped outside the official post, next to the carriage, a slender and straight figure stood in the moonlight, the wind lifted the hem of his robe, and there was a smell of floating dust.
In the distance, that figure, looking at Mengjin Pass in the distance, actually looked a little vicissitudes.
"Your Majesty, we really want this
Do you want to do it?" Gonggong Li asked in a low voice. "You secretly went from Luojing to Nanyang Hou Mansion, and you hid it from everyone, and came here from Nanyang Hou Mansion, let Lu Niangzi know about this......
Xia Pei turned his back to Li De and interrupted him, "Are you afraid?"
Li De sighed bitterly, "Your Majesty, you are the king, the Ninety-Five! Your Majesty is not afraid, how can the slave and maid be afraid? Huh!"
After saying this, Li Defu's mood became more complicated, and he secretly wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead.
"Your Majesty...... Still not at ease with Mrs. Lu?"
Hearing this, Xia Pei frowned.
Such a high-ranking master, holding the power of life and death, and even himself, the emperor, must be restrained by her, and no emperor will rest assured.
Fortunately, Lu Zhaoyi is just a woman. If she were a man, Xia Pei would not tolerate it and leave her to this day.
Tonight's matter, Xia Pei has already made a thousand plans, the reason why he told Lu Zhaoyi that he was only thirty percent sure, or wanted to test this time, after solving the rebellion of the Shi clan, would she take advantage of Luojing's emptiness and intend to attack the imperial city, and then she herself would reign in the world.
Perhaps, she is a woman and becomes the emperor, it is unlikely that she thinks about it, but Xia Pei's suspicion is heavy, and he has never been able to let down his guard without taking strong medicine.
At this time, there was a sound of galloping horses' hooves, he turned his head to look, and saw a person galloping on a horse, but with a cup of tea, the other party stopped in front of Xia Pei.
This person is, Xue Cifeng.
"Your Majesty! The rebellion in Luojing City has been resolved, and Wei Wei Jiang Yu has already apologized for his crimes!"
As soon as Xia Pei heard his report, he immediately snorted coldly and scolded, "Wu Chong, this old fox, is really clean."
Wei Weiqing Jiang Yu, since he beat the whole city to stop the leaflet at the beginning of the secret letter of rebellion, he was doomed, he would be Wu Chong's abandoned son in the future, and tonight's chaos in the city was to try out the strength that Xia Pei had as the emperor; Second, as soon as this line was broken, it happened to clear up many things, so that Wu Chong was enough to stay out of the matter and no longer have anything to do with Mixin.
Of course, this is based on the failure of tonight's operation, and if this plan succeeds and enters the palace, then he can step on this supreme position without any worries.
Of course, Xia Pei knew Wu Chong's thoughts, and then, he turned around and looked at the strange scene of Mengjin Pass in the distance, as if he was a little restless.
"Lee Tak ......"
"The slave is here!"
"Tell Xia Yuanfeng in Xiaopingjin Pass that no matter what happens tonight, he just needs to stand still and watch the fire from the other side."
Xue Cifeng was shocked, "There are 80,000 troops attacking on the other side, and Lu Niangzi only has 30,000 garrisons, I'm afraid he can't compete with it, and maybe his life will be in danger."
Under the Mengjin Pass, the rolling river rushed eastward, and the turbulent river, once it fought, fell into the river, and then even the corpse could not be recovered.
Xia Pei didn't know how dangerous the battle of Mengjin Pass would be, but he always had an intuition in his heart that the 80,000 troops might be vulnerable in front of Lu Zhaoyi's 30,000 garrisons.
Therefore, he arranged for them to lie dormant temporarily, as long as they were not surrounded by those tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, there was nothing to worry about.
After Li De got the order, he left immediately.
"Your Majesty!" After Li De left, Xue Cifeng couldn't help but ask, "If Lu Niangzi is defeated tonight, how will Your Majesty support?"
Xia Pei looked back, the corners of his mouth rose, and the bottomless city made Xue Cifeng also shocked.
"You've been in Yongping for so long and have forgotten who you are?"
"The subordinates don't dare!" Xue Cifeng was in a hurry, kneeling down and admitting his mistake, "The loyalty of his subordinates to His Majesty can be seen by the sun and the moon, and there is no second heart!"
Seeing this, Xia Pei glanced at it and said coldly, "Don't worry, I know it in my heart."
On the other hand, on Lu Zhaoyi's side, as soon as he arrived at Mengjin Pass, he had to summon Xia Chang, the general guarding the pass, and the lieutenant of the army, Guangxin Hou Cangfang.
At this time, when the 30,000 garrisons came to Mengjin Pass, they only heard a commotion.
She raised her eyebrows slightly, and immediately ordered someone to go and check it out.
Waiting for someone to return
After the announcement, a look of surprise appeared on her face, "Started attacking?"
"That's right!"
She turned her head and asked the guards, "Where are General Xia Chang and Marquis Guangxin?"
"Overseeing the battle at the docks!"
"Take me there!" After saying that, she instructed the deputy commander of the Shadow Guard, Shadow Ling, and Yuan Xun, the commander of the Black Armor Guard, to let the 30,000 horses immediately enter the battle.
When I arrived at the wharf, I saw that Xia Chang and Guangxin Hou Cangfang were standing on the sandbag fortifications, wearing armor, staring at the other side of the river with blazing eyes, with a grim expression.
Behind them stood a sandbag of crossbowmen, armed with shields, knives and guns, aimed at the opposite side, as if they were ready to strike at any moment.
At the command of the commander, the crossbowmen stuffed the arrows into the brazier, lit the arrows, and countless flames with arrows rose from the sky and rushed straight to the river, attacking the large ships.
In this process, the arrows on the opposite side also continued to shoot at the dock, the two armies fought, flesh and blood flying, the arrows on both sides were covered with rain, and they fell into a white-hot confrontation, and the sound of tragic fighting resounded in the sky, and the bloody atmosphere filled the surroundings.
At the same time, the trebuchets on the city wall also started one by one, and one after another, through the trebuchets, rushed to the big ship on the river.
It was here that Lu Zhaoyi fought with each other, under the bloody wind and rain, under the leadership of the soldiers, he came to the city wall, in the command hall of the arrow tower, the busy army sergeants, and the general guarding the pass, were burying their heads and anxiously deploying this battle.
Xia Chang and Guangxin Hou Cangfang, as soon as they saw the comer, their eyes lit up instantly, and they looked at Lu Zhaoyi in surprise.
"Mrs. Lu?"
It was Xia Chang who came back to his senses first, and his eyes were full of worry, "I said Lu Niangzi, you don't want to marry in Beijing, what are you doing in this kind of place?" It's not appropriate for you, the future queen, to come here to oversee the war!"
Lu Zhaoyi was not in a hurry or slow, his eyes were condensed, "If I don't bring these 30,000 horsemen today, General Xia will be able to resist 80,000 horses on the other side of the river?"
"Thirty thousand riders?"
They have lived in Luojing for a long time, and everyone knows that the garrison camp outside Luojing City is stationed with the pro-army of Zhenguo Gong, the Shadow Moon Guard and the Black Armor Guard, a total of 30,000 horses.
They didn't expect that tonight, all these 30,000 horses were dispatched, and they really obeyed her orders?
At the moment, there may be doubts, but the war situation is urgent, and they can't help but think too much.
Lu Zhaoyi walked over, "Still cold-eyed, "What is the current situation?"
She wasn't going to waste her time and get straight to the point.
Cangfang turned around and arched his hand, "Previously, the other party had already had a wave of rushing and losing a lot of people, and now it is their second wave of attack."
