Six hundred and sixty-eight: Chang'an
The staff said to Ye Mengxiong: "Dong Weng Mingjian, the servant thinks that Yang Yinglong's appearance of dying is already very obvious!" ”
The staff stepped forward and said softly: "First, Yang Yinglong has a brutal and murderous temperament, and the whole of Banzhou has long been angry and afraid of him, but the Yang family is powerful, so everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak!" But this kind of thing happened this time, it is no longer a matter of whether everyone dares to resist Yang Yinglong, but what Yang Yinglong has done is too much! ”
Ye Mengxiong nodded secretly, killing the whole family at every turn, this kind of thing is still a little scary in the end, there is a lot of help for the righteous and little help for the unjust, everyone is obviously chatting well, but you have to flip the table if you don't like it?
So who wants to play with you? What is this not a madman? Especially when everyone knows that this madman has a gun that can kill people............
The staff continued: "Second, Yang Yinglong has been exploiting his subordinates for a long time over the years, and he has no respect for the head of the family with the fifth division and seven surnames. Therefore, I thought that the five divisions and seven surnames had long held a grudge against Yang Yinglong, but because of the Yang family's strength, the five divisions and seven surnames were not united, so no one stood up to resist. ”
Ye Mengxiong stroked his beard and said, "But now, the situation is different!" The staff hurriedly said, "That's right! Yang Yinglong's killing of the head of the Luo family is simply too bad! As long as we connect from it, I feel that the five divisions and seven surnames will stand together at such an opportunity! Send you, a man of high authority and high morality, to make a covenant! ”
Ye Mengxiong knew in his heart that this was what the staff was saying to himself, of course the five divisions and seven surnames would not stand together because of Ye Mengxiong, if the five and four seven surnames could stand together because of Ye Mengxiong, of course, it was because Ye Mengxiong represented the imperial court!
But that's enough, Ye Mengxiong didn't think that the five divisions and seven surnames could really stand with him, Ye Mengxiong is one of the new parties, and he came to the southwest to implement the new policy in the southwest! So his purpose is to change the land!
Since he has this purpose, whether it is the five divisions and seven surnames, or the Banzhou Yang family, it is naturally impossible to have a good face for him! With these few houses, the southwest is simply an iron bucket! Therefore, Ye Mengxiong can be said to be overstretched in Guizhou in recent years, and he is very embarrassed!
But now, Ye Mengxiong finally saw the opportunity to break this iron bucket! Or the opportunity for the Bozhou toasts to take the initiative to send it to the door!
The enemy of my enemy is, of course, my friend! The five divisions and seven surnames are definitely not enough to solve the Banzhou Yang clan by their own strength, and all of them together are not enough for the Yang clan's hammer!
So at this time, if Ye Mengxiong replaces the original position of Yang Yinglong and becomes the central dispatcher among the five divisions and seven surnames, then naturally his strength will soar! It may not have the strength to fight with the Banzhou Yang family!
Ye Mengxiong hammered the table with a little excitement and said: "As long as the five divisions and seven surnames break with the Yang family, this iron plate in Banzhou will finally be torn open by us!" With the help of this opportunity, not only can I get rid of the biggest obstacle in Banzhou, but also lose the harmony of the Yang family in Banzhou, and I am afraid that the five divisions and seven surnames will be able to kill each other by killing each other! ”
The staff hurriedly bowed down and said, "Congratulations to the servant for Ming Gong!" Congratulations to Dayan! The day of breaking the game in the southwest has arrived! After getting rid of the Banzhou Yang family, the southwest is naturally under control! ”
Although Ye Mengxiong was also a little excited, he still barely kept his composure and shook his head: "It's light, but it's easy to really knock down Yang Yinglong and impeach?" All in all, we can't let go of this opportunity, even if we can't eat him this time, we have to tear off a layer of skin from him! ”
Before Ye Mengxiong's words fell, he saw an official under him hurriedly walking in outside, and seeing so many people in the room, he was obviously stunned for a moment, Ye Mengxiong asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The official hurriedly said, "My lord, something happened to Hailongtun." Hearing this, Ye Mengxiong and the staff looked at each other, and said with a slight doubt: "What's going on?" ”
The official said very quickly: "Yang Yinglong suspected that his wife was fornicating with others, and in a fit of anger, he actually killed his wife and the mother-in-law who came to visit, and now the Zhang family already knows about it, and vows to fight with Yang Yinglong endlessly, and the Zhang family's family advocate ran over from Sichuan and asked to see the adults outside our mansion!" ”
Ye Mengxiong was surprised and delighted when he heard this, and said excitedly with his fist clapping: "Okay!" All right! Ye Mengxiong hurriedly walked out and said, "Yang Yinglong, this is asking for his own death!" Bring about one's own destruction! Ha ha! God help me! This official will see if you will die this time! ”
Don't blame Ye Mengxiong for being surprised, because the two things that Yang Yinglong did one after another were really appalling, let's not talk about killing the whole family, even the emperor couldn't do it, but Yang Yinglong did such a hurtful thing!
Such a big crime is not enough to die tens of thousands of times, Yang Yinglong actually went on to kill his wife and mother-in-law!
As mentioned above, the ancients treated the relationship between husband and wife as equal, at least at the legal level, the relationship between husband and wife was equal, so it was not allowed to spoil concubines and kill wives! What's more, this time he really killed his wife!
Even if you kill your wife, you know, your mother-in-law is also a mother! The big crime of killing his mother, he was afraid to even say it, he actually dared to do it!
If these two sins were taken out separately, Ye Mengxiong would actually be a little worried, because after all, everyone who has been plagued by Yang Yinglong for so many years has a shadow, and this bastard is really powerful in this realm!
Even if these two sins sound appalling, maybe Yang Yinglong is really unscathed in the end!
Add these two sins together, Lao Tzu sees that you are not dead!
Ye Mengxiong couldn't help but smile a little happily............
…………
"Report! Report to the sect leader, the front, the front is, uh, it's Chang'an City! ”
Tian Jiucheng didn't answer the soldier's words, and many people even cursed secretly in their hearts, nonsense! Do you still need to say that you will go to Chang'an City in front? As long as you are not blind, almost all of them see that the front is Chang'an!
Chang'an City, the capital of the Zulong Emperor, there were 23 dynasties built the capital here, it is the capital with the most dynasties in Chinese history, the longest time to build the capital, the most influential capital, the capital of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the king's style is unrivaled in the world!
Zhou made ceremonies and music here, Qin swept Liuhe here, Han conquered the world here, and Tang came to the dynasty of all countries!
"Nine days to open the palace, all the nations to worship the crown!"
Chang'an City is magnificent in scale, rigorous in layout, symmetrical in structure, neatly arranged, there are three city gates on each side of the outer city, the six streets that run through the twelve city gates are the traffic arteries of the whole city, and the Vermilion Bird Street that runs through the north and south is the lifeblood of the whole city!
Chang'an is divided into two, connecting the Chengtian Gate of the palace city, the Vermilion Bird Gate of the imperial city and the Mingde Gate of the outer city, the east is Wannian County, the west is Chang'an County, the north and south of the city eleven streets, the east and west fourteen streets, the Chang'an is divided into one hundred and fourteen neat square markets, its shape is similar to a Go board.
Chang'an is bigger than any city in the world at this time, and in the Tang Dynasty, it is the world's largest and most developed international city.
Therefore, when Emperor Taizu actually intended to move the capital, he had already ordered the then Prince Chuanwu to inspect several cities, Bianjing Kaifeng, the central capital Fengyang, and the old capital Shenjing, among which the most favorite of Emperor Taizu and Prince Chuanwu was Chang'an!
However, with the early death of Prince Chuanwu, Emperor Taizu was grief-stricken and older, so he had less thoughts of moving the capital, and then later, Emperor Taizong ascended to Dabao, Emperor Taizong was born in Shenjing, and most of his life was stationed in Shenjing, and he was not very accustomed to the climate of Jinling, so he remembered to move the capital again.
But compared to Chang'an, of course, Emperor Taizong is more familiar with and better grasps of Shenjing, so Chang'an missed the opportunity to become the imperial capital of the Great Unification Dynasty again.
To this day............
Originally, Tian Jiucheng was ready to start preparing for the emperor after conquering Chang'an, and he was ready to set the capital of Chang'an, but now he knows that he is wrong, and his mistake is outrageous!
The White Lotus Sect members who have been to the farthest place in their lives may be their own county seat and looked at Chang'an City in front of them in amazement, they stood on the mountain, condescending, and could see almost the entire entire Chang'an City at a glance!
But the more this happens, the more they begin to feel weak............
Such a place, they fight down? They do have tens of thousands of troops now, but looking at Chang'an City in front of them, it seems that the people inside can drown them with a mouthful of spit!
If they hadn't stood on the mountain, they wouldn't even have been able to see the boundary of Chang'an City at a glance! Tian Jiucheng couldn't help but swallow his saliva, he admitted that his ambitions had indeed been curtailed a lot at this time, and Chang'an City didn't seem to be a suitable place for him to dominate............
However, he came all the time, or did he insist on fighting Chang'an City, but now he was scared away because he saw the whole picture of Chang'an City? That's a fart world! Laughing is going to be laughed to death! So this must not be brought up by him!
So for a while, the White Lotus Sect members on the hillside were actually a little weirdly quiet, everyone was a little embarrassed, most of them wanted to persuade Tian Jiucheng not to fight, but they didn't dare to bring it up, and Tian Jiucheng was waiting for someone to give him a step down, but no one spoke!
Fortunately, Zhou Junchen, the prefect of Hanzhong Prefecture who had just been brought under his command, was a figure who had mixed in the system, and when he saw such an eerie quiet scene, he probably knew what difficulties the "leader" was making.
Therefore, Zhou Junchen took the initiative to go up the steps very intimately and said, "Sect Master! Subordinates have something to say! Tian Jiucheng's spirits perked up, and he said calmly in his heart: "Speak!" ”
Zhou Junchen took a few steps forward and said: "My subordinates think that it is not a wise move to attack Chang'an at this time, although it is easy for my heavenly soldiers to capture Chang'an, but in the end, it is better to have the least losses, and my subordinates happen to have a plan!" I don't know if the sect leader is willing to adopt it. ”
Tian Jiucheng pretended to be abrupt and said, "Oh? What's your plan? Let's hear about it. Zhou Junchen said yes, and then stepped forward and bowed and said: "My subordinates think that attacking Chang'an first will take a long time after all, and there is no support behind them, so I am afraid it will be difficult to win in a short time." ”
Tian Jiucheng actually didn't know what Zhou Junchen was going to say at all, but he still nodded in agreement, and Zhou Junchen continued: "So what the subordinates mean is that it is better to attack Shangluo first and cut off the back road of Chang'an. ”
Tian Jiuchengcai doesn't care if he is a businessman or not, as long as he can leave Chang'an first, he is dizzy when he looks at Chang'an City now!
So without hesitation, he nodded and agreed, and patted Zhou Junchen's shoulder with a smile and said, "You are very good!" This seat really didn't mistake you! It's a talent! ”
Zhou Junchen inevitably patted Tian Jiucheng's ass with a few modest words, and when he patted the sky, he was full of joy, and immediately clapped the board and said: "Okay!" Then we'll attack Shangluo! ”
Wang Jingangnu, who was worried in front, was very excited when he first knew that Tian Jiucheng was not going to fight Chang'an, but then Wang Jingangnu was stunned, because he didn't want to withdraw the army, he actually wanted to fight Shangluo!
What are you doing when you go to Shangluo? You must know that Shangluo is further east than Chang'an, and when the time comes, Shangluo will really be laid, and it will be separated by a Chang'an, so far away to maintain Shangluo!
When it was really attacked, Shangluo was the first place to be surrounded! When the time comes, it will be too late to save! Besides, compared with Dayan, they are at a disadvantage, and it is not easy to occupy Zheng Hanzhong in the south of Luoyang!
What should be done now is to shrink as much as possible, the closer you get, the better it is to support each other, the stronger the defense, and the good end is hanging a lonely Shangluo outside, and you can't save it when the time comes, and it's not easy to contact and transport baggage on weekdays!
Wang Jingangnu looked at the sky helplessly and sighed, he knew that maybe it was time to leave this team!
Song Qing hurriedly rushed to Chang'an City to sit in the town, Song Qing, who originally thought that there was still a war outside Chang'an City, saw from afar that Chang'an was still running normally, and the traffic on the street was no different from usual!
At most, the turmoil in the White Lotus Sect has been a bit big recently, so the number of soldiers patrolling near Chang'an City has increased significantly.
Song Qing felt that the reason why he only rushed to Chang'an now was because Shi Nai was too wasteful, and Datong managed by Shi Nai was simply like no one!
So Song Qing had to wipe Shi Nai's buttocks, because this matter was too big, if something really went wrong with Datong, it was estimated that none of the four major governors would be able to fall into the favor!
After getting the news of Sichuan and Shaanxi, although Song Qing was still very worried about Datong Mansion, he had to rush to Chang'an to sit down............
Song Qing was about to blow up the eighteenth generation of the ancestors scolded by Jia Jing in his heart, you lack virtue and smoke, make such a thing disgusting me! Song Qing even wondered if Jia Jing had already guessed that there would be such a play, so he deliberately arranged such a person to block himself!
Song Qing knew that the matter of the Sichuan-Shaanxi White Lotus Sect was urgent, but he was not particularly anxious, he heard on the road that the Sichuan-Shaanxi White Lotus Sect had already released a rumor, and it was said that he was going to take down Chang'an City and claim the emperor, and Emperor Yongxi was naturally furious, and Song Qing had expected Emperor Yongxi's reaction early on.
It's okay if Sichuan Shaanxi Bailian is for some appeal or is forced to rebel, but if Ming Ben is called the emperor, it will be touching the emperor's scales!
There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters!
As long as you don't call yourself the emperor, it's easy to say anything, but as long as Sichuan and Shaanxi Bailian dare to call the emperor, she slapped Emperor Yongxi hard in the face, and she was still dancing and mocking in front of him............
Who can bear this? So Song Qing had anticipated Emperor Yongxi's reaction early in the morning, in his opinion, Emperor Yongxi must be angry when he was angry, but he didn't necessarily pay much attention to it, after all, it was a group of peasants who rebelled, and he personally came to sit in town, and it was only a matter of time before he became ordinary.
As for what made Chang'an the emperor, Song Qing just listened to it as a joke, Chang'an City has four guards in Xi'an, front and back, left and right, relying on these tens of thousands of people, it may not be enough to stuff their teeth............
Song Qing's only worry is that the four guards of Chang'an have not moved much for so long, will there be a common problem that most of the guards have?
That is, the generals are incompetent and rotten, and the low-level soldiers are greedy for pleasure and lazy to eat! Most of the hereditary guards have this problem!
After all, they are all hereditary, and there is no competitive pressure, and it is unlikely that there will be any enemies to invade in a big city like Chang'an, so the combat effectiveness of most of the guards is probably worrying.
The counterinsurgency behind the Song and Qing dynasties must be dominated by the four guards of Chang'an, so the combat effectiveness of the four guards of Chang'an is too stretched............ Song Qing didn't have any other way, after all, there were definitely not many people in this realm who could use it easily!
Song Qing entered Chang'an City with doubts, came to the Chang'an Metropolitan Guard, and chatted with the commander of the four guards of Chang'an for a while, and then asked if the White Lotus rebels had come.
Several commanders looked at each other, and then one of them hesitated and stepped forward and said, "I did hear that there were suspicious signs from the people below, but I don't know why they didn't attack, but looked at it and retreated." ”
Song Qing was speechless when he heard this, and he didn't know why he went to check! Go catch up and see what they're going to do! Are you asking me here, do I know? Several commanders hurriedly nodded yes to the scolded dog, and hurriedly went down to order someone to do it.
Then Song Qing asked some more questions about armaments, and the more he asked, the more cold he became, and sure enough, these soldiers of the four guards of Chang'an had become proper young master soldiers, and they didn't know if they asked three questions, they were all at a loss, you look at me, I look at you............
Song Qing felt helpless for a while, he could only hope that there were no particularly powerful characters among those traitors, after all, he also saw the state of his teammates, and he had to burn high incense if he didn't hold back!
After a while, the spies who were sent to investigate came back, Song Qing asked about the location of the White Lotus Sect's rebels, and the spies said that they had gone south, Song Qing looked at the map on the wall with a deep groan, rubbed his chin and whispered: "To the south............ What to do south? What's in the south? ”
