Chapter 470: The Emperor Grants the Axe and Doesn't Dare to Disobey
While the two sides were discussing in the garrison camp, the Wuye Cavalry, which was entrenched in the eastern capital, also welcomed a group of "guests".
In the tent of the military camp in the inner city of the Eastern Capital, Chu Xu has been sitting and waiting in the tent since he received the military report.
As early as this morning, there were dark night spies who reported that there were suspicious signs of marching in the mountains and forests northwest of the eastern capital.
For this army of unknown origin, Chu Xu initially thought that the king of Northern Yan belonged to a meeting with the light cavalry of the south on the surface, and wanted to secretly do something about Chen Cang.
When Chu Xu was about to order someone to be sent to confirm the authenticity, there was an extra group of people outside the military tent in the inner city.
It was someone he couldn't have imagined that he shouldn't even be here, an organization that had been called the Imperial Blade.
The leader is the founder of this organization, "Xiaochen" Yun Yichen.
Chu Xu twisted the military newspaper in his hand, and carefully looked at the information back and forth, as if he was planning to sniff out the evil intention from it.
Cloud and dust... You should have ordered the southern Xinjiang to besiege and kill Xiao Baoli, why did you appear here?
It didn't take long for the shouts of the Dark Night Riders to be heard outside the tent.
"General, the man has been brought!"
Chu Xu responded: "Enter..."
Before he could finish speaking, the curtain of the tent was lifted from the outside to the inside.
A man in black soft armor walked into the tent, and he looked at Chu Xu indifferently.
"Brother Chu... I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed! ”
Chu Xu asked rhetorically: "There is no intersection between the dark night rider and the evil, and I have never seen you Yun Yichen, why haven't you seen it for a long time?" ”
Yun Yichen said: "Everything we do is to contribute to the stability of the hot sun, can't we say that we have been friends for a long time when we work together like this?" ”
A faint hint of killing intent flashed in Chu Xu's eyes, but it was soon fleeting.
He spoke out loud: "What is the matter with the evil that I don't know what is here?" ”
Yun Yichen responded: "Please Brother Chu immediately start and lead the whole army of the Black Night Cavalry back to Xijing!" ”
Chu Xu asked loudly: "Yun Yichen, you lost in the southern Xinjiang trapped Xiao Baoli, and you didn't return to Xijing to resume your life... On the contrary, the army returned from the northwest, so much effort, what is your purpose? ”
Yun Yichen replied to the question: "Shannan and Gyeonggi have successively defected to the state cities, don't you know?" ”
Chu Xu threw away the military report in his hand, stood up straight and responded: "According to the original arrangement, even if you Yun Yichen did not besiege Xiao Baoli and let him break through to southern Xinjiang, shouldn't you be the one who sits in Shannan to stabilize the situation?" ”
Yun Yichen still didn't answer Chu Xu's meaning, he just leaned to the left and gave up the position in the middle of the camp tent.
Soon, an old man in a scarlet robe walked slowly into the tent.
Looking at his clothing, he is the former father-in-law in the imperial city of Xijing, although he has no real power compared to the officials in the court, but the weight of his speech is much heavier than that of some officials.
The old man spoke up: "Yun Yichen's going north to reorganize the army is Your Majesty's intention..."
Chu Xu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the father-in-law in front of him.
He recognized the person in front of him, it was Li Chengyan, who was in charge of delivering words to the two saints in the Great Zhen Hall of the Imperial City of Xijing.
Chu Xu asked out loud: "Then come here today, is also what Your Majesty meant?" ”
The majesty in the mouths of the two is no longer the son of the Xia family who once sat on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, but the Empress Su who abolished the emperor and established herself as the emperor of sainthood and glory.
Li Chengyan was puzzled: "General Chu thinks that our family will falsely preach the will of the Holy Lord?" ”
Chu Xu fell silent, his fists clenched behind him, and his face finally showed some ugly expressions.
Seeing that the other party did not respond, Li Chengyan changed the side of the whisk he was holding in his hand, and took a deep breath at the same time.
He said loudly: "General Chu wants to disobey His Majesty's wishes, and see that Xijing is in danger and ignore it?" ”
Chu Xu responded: "Your Majesty personally gave the axe to himself, and Chu Xu didn't dare to disobey it, but these arrangements are contrary to common sense, and Gonggong Li should also be aware of it, right?" ”
In fact, in Chu Xu's heart, the idea of not being subject to the life of the foreign monarch has long been about to come out.
But the current situation is clearly that Li Chengyan forced him to return to Xijing, and there must be some unknown arrangements in this.
Li Cheng snorted, squinting at Yun Yichen on the side.
He opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty's intention is to successfully stabilize Mobei and not chaos, so that the evil north went forward to test the king of Hanchuan, but Xiao Baoli, who was dormant in the southern Xinjiang, broke through at this time, so he had the idea of returning to Xijing." ”
Chu Xu asked: "Then how to deal with the eastern capital after that, is it to put Guanhe, Hebei, and Henan all in the hands of the rebels?" ”
Li Cheng said: "After General Chu brings people back to help, this place will be handed over to the evil town to guard, and I will personally supervise the battle by the side..."
Chu Xu looked at Yun Yichen, and subconsciously muttered: "Just them?" ”
In his eyes, whether it is "Xiaochen" who has lived in seclusion in Xifan Snow Mountain for many years, or "Qingzhu", who acts as the power of the eight generals, it is just a vain.
If the evil can really serve the hot sun and serve His Majesty, there will be a rebellion in the south before?
Directly let him take the black night horse, first lead the troops and horses to the south of the Yangtze River, then sweep Lingnan and Qianzhong, and finally sweep away the barbarians in southern Xinjiang!
At that time, who else will dare to go against His Majesty?
Why does Your Majesty need to go to great lengths to plan this deposed emperor?
You can change the dynasty and be the co-master of the world in these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains! Become the new master of this world!
Yun Yichen said: "The eastern capital is a place where evil people started, and Brother Chu has been stationed here for many days, can he find out all the secrets in the city?" ”
Chu Xu's eyebrows tightened, and he looked at the head of the eight generals with cold eyes.
"It's just some city defense equipment, as long as the rebels can't enter the city, why use the equipment set up by the evil spirit?"
Since the Dark Night Cavalry "occupied" the eastern capital, Chu Xu sent people to search for the city defense equipment set up in the past.
There are fire oxen ballistas hidden in the four corners of the city walls, imperial castle vehicles hidden in the mansions of wealthy families, and ambush strongholds set up on the main roads of the outer city.
But if it's just these utensils and arrangements, any state city in the north of the scorching sun is all available, and it is normal.
Therefore, the "dark grid" in Yun Yichen's mouth must be far more than that!
Yun Yichen said: "I look at the situation of the city wall at the east gate of the town, even if the soldiers in the city repair it quickly, it won't last for half a month... At that time, Brother Chu can still stop the rebels from entering the city? ”
Chu Xu responded: "Then if it is changed to evil, you Yun Yichen can rely on those dark grids to win?" And then force the rebels out of the city? ”
Yun Yichen raised his arm and said loudly.
"Yun can make a military order here, but the evil will definitely defend the eastern capital, if the army is defeated and the city is broken, causing the rebels to occupy the eastern capital, I, Yun Yichen, will give my head and hands!"
Chu Xu couldn't raise the slightest interest in the arrogance of the person in front of him.
Throughout the ages, those who have no ambitions and no one in their eyes, who has not spoken wildly?
In the end, when he ends up in a different place, he dies and dies, but what should he do if he is allowed to do what he wants?
Yun Yichen's generous words, Li Chengyan's edict to pass the word, His Majesty's strange arrangement... There are so many things, he thinks he can't afford it!
Chu Xu said in a deep voice: "Xijing is in danger, someone must break the siege, the rebels in the eastern capital are entrenched, and the garrison must stay..."
He locked his gaze on Yun Yichen's figure, who clasped his hands into fists in his chest, and his face was as indifferent as usual.
Chu Xu continued to speak: "If you Yun Yichen have a little crooked brain, after I retreat from Xiao Baoli, I will personally come to take your life!" ”
Yun Yichen spoke out: "But evil is the sharpest blade of the hot sun, since the day the sword was formed, it has been its own responsibility to stabilize the mountains and rivers, and has never had two hearts!" ”
Li Chengyan saw that the two of them had finally settled the matter, and immediately held the dust in his hand steady, and then took two steps forward.
The figure of the vermilion robe walked to the middle of the two, and it was also the center of the military tent.
He said loudly: "Chu Xu! Cloud and dust! ”
The two shouted in unison: "The end will be!" ”
Li Chengyan looked up at the roof of the tent, and his eyes seemed to pass through the tent, and began to sing the sound of the sky.
At this moment, outside the Dazhen Hall of the Imperial City of Xijing, there was also a woman in a dragon robe, surrounded by hundreds of officials, raising her head to look at the sky.
"From now on, the Dark Night Cavalry will return to Xijing and accept the task of suppressing the Liaoyuan rebels! But the evil led the army to sit in the eastern capital, and received the responsibility of stabilizing the eastern capital to resist the rebels! Make no mistake! ”
Chu Xu and Yun Yichen shouted again: "The last general will take orders!" ”
Li Chengyan's voice was hoarse and weak at the end of his words, and after he coughed dryly twice, he turned his head elsewhere.
He said with difficulty: "Now that I have received the order, I hope that the two of you will hand over as soon as possible, don't let Your Majesty wait for a long time..."
Chu Xu walked around the table and began to walk out.
When he walked to the exit of the tent, he turned around and took one last look at Yun Yichen's figure.
"The last general will immediately set off with the whole army, and in the future, the eastern capital will be handed over to Gonggong Li and the evil one..."
Li Chengyan seemed to be retching and coughing because he was trying his best to shout before, without any intention of responding to Chu Xu.
Yun Yichen maintained his previous fist clenching movements, and turned to look at Chu Xu at the edge of the tent.
He said loudly: "General Chu can rest assured, but the evil will definitely defend the Eastern Capital!" ”
Chu Xu retracted his gaze and walked straight out.
As a result, in the tent of the inner city of the Eastern Capital, only Li Chengjun and the evil people remained.
After a long time, the former father-in-law finally stopped coughing, and his whole body was straighter than before.
He looked at the military reports on the table that had been neatly collected by the Dark Night Horse, and spoke out for no reason.
"Now that the things arranged by His Majesty have gone, Yun Yichen... Can you tell us why the Dark Night Rider stopped in the Eastern Capital and did not continue to advance into Hebei? ”
Yun Yichen said: "Naturally, His Majesty has made arrangements, which made him understand the significance of the garrison here... And spared the pipe Xiao's life. ”
Li Cheng stopped talking, and finally just lifted the dust in his hand and slapped the vermilion robe on his body.
Yun Yichen clasped his fists and saluted him, and his words spoke.
"If Gonggong Li is tired, you can go to rest first, and later I will take my subordinates into the city to make the final handover with the Dark Night Cavalry."
Li Chengyan didn't look back at Yun Yichen, turned around and walked towards the outside of the tent.
"Whether it is the sword that stabilizes the rivers and mountains, or the axe that sweeps the world, it is all granted by the monarch's power, and he can't forget it... You can't forget it! ”
Yun Yichen responded loudly to the vermilion robe that was far away: "But the evil will not be forgotten until death!" ”
