Chapter 627: Dispatch of Troops to the King of Duty

The early dynasty ended like this, and the minister even walked out of the Daming Hall inexplicably, of course, each of them had some injuries on their bodies. In Zhao Gao's words, the battle between them and the court is not very exciting, it would be best if they could be more intense, but it is a pity that they didn't bring knives up in the early dynasty, otherwise Zhao Gao would really be able to stage a scene where the white knife enters and the red knife comes out. Of course, the generals and nobles of Zuihou's duel are of course not convinced by each other, and the two classes are not right in the first place, so how can they give up in today's events.

Zhao Gao made peace again, said that everyone was comfortable, and then everyone left happily. Of course, when everyone left the court, they were in a daze, and they didn't know what they were thinking, today's court is a bit too chaotic, and the empire has been established for thousands of years, and this kind of thing has happened in the court for the first time. Although the courtiers had complaints in their hearts, they could only swallow their anger at this time. Anyway, today's biggest winner is Zhao Gaoxiao's seniors, who easily gathered a group of minions in the court. Of course, Wei Zhongxian is very quiet today, and there must be a big move behind the quietness, but now everyone doesn't know.

"Zhao Gao, your play is over, and my East Factory is busy again. Wei Zhongxian rarely made a joke with Zhao Gao, just like before, the two of them looked at each other unpleasantly, and they couldn't wait to get rid of each other. But neither of them will do it, of course Wei Zhongxian knows what Zhao Gao means by performing this play today, do you want to see the attitude of the officials in the court, why are you making so much trouble for us Dongchang? Wei Zhongxian has a headache now. The reputation of the East Factory is already stinky enough. Wei Zhongxian has already begun to think of a way to turn the situation around. But as soon as Zhao Gao came out today, it was estimated that the reputation of the East Factory would be even more stinky.

"Do I want to set up a West Factory to deal with this kind of thing?" Wei Zhongxian's thoughts flashed away, and the conditions for setting up a West Factory are not yet mature. Although they have their own way of food and salary in the East Factory, they can't come up with money to set up the West Factory, and besides, this West Factory will definitely not let themselves be commanded by Zhao Gao's virtue, so it is better not to come to the reality. Of course, Wei Zhongxian didn't know that one of his current ideas gave birth to the more notorious West Factory. Of course, this notorious thing is not about the kind of indiscriminate killing of innocents, but about notorious! Of course, Wei Zhongxian didn't know that his idea had been fully implemented by Liu Fan, and if there were conditions, Liu Fan even wanted to set up Jinyiwei, but when he thought about several intelligence organizations in his hands, Liu Fan still gave up this tempting idea, and it was estimated that those ministers would have to fight with him in the formation of Jinyiwei, of course, this is all a later story.

"Your Dongchang has been idle lately, it's really too much, you see that this court is not something that we can control if we control the palace. These people still choose to be loyal to Zhang Rang's eunuch, but that's fine. You can have your people haode clean up these officials and just make room for some space. Give way to those who are coming. Zhao Gao sat there calmly looking at the empty court, this palace was finally managed by them, but it seemed that it was still a little short of success.

"Hmph, you can end up with an easy one, you can use your mouth, and then this notorious reputation will let us carry it for you. Wei Zhongxian fought and slowly walked out of the door, and several little eunuchs immediately followed behind Wei Zhongxian and set off towards the location of the East Factory. This palace is still not peaceful, I don't know how many more people will die for this throne, Wei Zhongxian suddenly had an urge to kill all these officials, but in the end he suppressed the killing in his heart, if he really slaughtered all these officials in the court, they would not have to worry about it, there would be nothing.

Even if Wei Zhongxian was 10,000 unwilling now, he finally accepted it. There is no way, Zhao Gao, the bastard play, finished acting, threw down a bunch of messes and let himself deal with it. Dongchang's fanzi was sent out that night, and those strange people could be seen everywhere on the street inquiring about information, teahouses, brothels, restaurants, theaters and other places were the key locations for inquiring about information. The next day, two officials were arrested on charges of misconduct. This reason is that everyone is laughing, anyway, the East Factory will find a few troubles if it is fine.

Things went on for a few days without incident. Dongchang's fanzi took away two or three people every day, killing a few and putting a few every day, and everyone finally understood that something was wrong. This is obviously a scene played by Zhao Gao and Wei Zhongxian against them. Don't you see that the people who were taken away were all those who opposed Zhao Gao? This is not good, everyone quickly took action, Zhao Gao and Wei Zhongxian have already begun to act, we can't sit idly by.

The army is a violent organization, and it has been like this since ancient times, and whoever controls the army has a real say. Zhang Bai and Yin Chengfeng felt that they still had the strength to fight after seeing Zhang Rang, but the successive actions of Dongchang and Heibingtai made Zhang Bai and Yin Chengfeng feel that something was wrong. The two thought of the simplest and most direct way to mobilize the army to engage Zhao Gao. Soon the five guards corps outside the city began to move, and this information soon reached the ears of Zhao Gao and Wei Zhongxian, and the two sneered at this kind of army transfer, you are looking for death yourself, don't blame me.

"Childe, if you really want to kill Zhao Gao and Wei Xian, it is absolutely not enough to rely on our army alone. Yin Chengfeng looked at the resources in his hand, his brows twisted into a Sichuan character, and said to Zhang Bai, who was also pale sitting on the side: "Now Zhao Gao controls two guards legions, and we can only mobilize eight legions in our hands, and three legions still have to be transferred back from the front line, and we may have failed in this time of coming and going." ”

"You're right. Zhang Bai nodded and said, "However, the only army we can mobilize now is these eight corps." Zhao Gao and Wei Xian are now pressing more and more tightly, every day we have a lot of officials in our hands into the East Factory, although we have not moved the officers in our hands yet, I think if we continue to remain silent, Zhao Gao and Wei Xian will sooner or later take action against our army. If we don't act again. It is quite possible that we will lose even the army. ”

Zhang Bai's words made both of them fall into deep thought. Both of them kept their heads down and thought of a way. Now that Luo Wang is under the persecution of organizations such as Black Ice Terrace and Dongchang, as well as Dark Night Quicksand, there is very little room for survival. Although there are still many hidden shili that have not been used, Zhang Bai does not want to use that part of the people at the last resort. If this part of the chess pieces is removed again, the net will completely lose the strength to balance the Black Ice Platform and the East Factory, all they can do now is to endure! But forbearance is not a way, if they are not countered, they will not have a trace of prestige in the court.

"Childe. Shang Shu Jiyong of the Ministry of War, Fang Yun, the head of the Ministry of War, and Zhao Hai, the director of the Ministry of War, asked to see him!" A guard hurriedly walked in and said to the two who were thinking about countermeasures, the two of them glanced at it, and the three major officials of the Ministry of War came to visit at the same time, and there must be something important to discuss. Zhang Bai hurriedly asked the three of them to come in, and soon the three officials were led by the guards to the living room, and after the ceremony, the guests and hosts sat down.

"Childe, this time we came here because the matter has reached a very critical point. Today, three more officers from the Ministry of War were invited into the East Factory. Ji Yong looked at Zhang Bai anxiously, and Fang Yun and Zhao Hai next to him were also anxious. Ji Yong added: "Childe, if we don't take any more measures, there will be few officials left in the six ministries. ”

"I know that Chengfeng and I are discussing this. Zhang Bai nodded solemnly and said, "My idea is to transfer troops into the palace Qingjun's side, use the forces in my hands to control the palace, and eradicate Zhao Gao and Wei Xian's shili in one fell swoop." ”

"Childe, that's why we came to you today. Childe didn't know that the only legion we could control now was eight corps with a strength of 2.4 million people. Childe, how many troops can we really control? I once asked the Ministry of War to do an investigation, and the number of troops we can dispatch at one time is no more than 1.5 million, and how many people are needed to defend the imperial palace? 300,000 is enough, and how many people are needed to defend the imperial capital? 1 million is enough! And Zhao Gao now has few troops in his hands, and it is conservatively estimated that the combined strength of the two will probably not be less than 1 million. ”

"The traitors Liu Fan, Chen Bing, Yuzhou, Yizhou, Yangzhou, Jiaozhou, Xuzhou, Jingzhou, and even Yongzhou are all involved. Zhao Gao only needs to command his troops to control the imperial city or the imperial capital, and strictly defend it, even if we have a million troops, what can we do? As long as we can't attack for a long time, the rebels in the south can go north to support at any time, and I'm afraid that we will become a real lone army at that time!"

"I'm afraid it's not easy for the rebels in the south to go north, right? The Eight Great Emperor Merchants Chen Bing are outside the Tiger Prison Pass, and there are only two corps of Li Jing and Yuwen Chengdu outside the Tiger Prison Pass, and the combined strength of these two corps is less than two million. "Although Zhang Bai is not very proficient in the army, he still knows a little about the movement of troops, there is a large army stationed outside the Tiger Pass, and the terrain of the Tiger Pass is dangerous, and if you want to attack it, hundreds of thousands of people will not be able to take this pass.

"Childe, having said that, a war cannot only look at the disparity in strength, the rebellion in the south is now getting stronger and stronger, and after defeating the Hai Clan in Yizhou, it has reached the peak of prestige. Do you still remember the Chen Qingzhi corps that appeared near the imperial capital when the southern rebellion was conquered?"

Ji Yong's words made Zhang Bai and Yin Chengfeng's faces also change greatly, this haunted corps that appeared near the imperial capital became a nightmare for the entire imperial capital during that time, and the encirclement and suppression troops sent out by the imperial capital were beaten by a disgraced person, and even Luoyang City was captured by others, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers were taken away. Last time, Sizhou was also heavily guarded, and the other party was able to touch it unconsciously, and this time it was not unavoidable. Zhang Bai is not Zhang Rang, he can't fail, once he fails without Zhang Rang's protection, he will have nothing.

"And what can you do?"

"Childe, what we're most worried about now is how much the guards in our hands have been infiltrated by Zhao Gao and Wei Zhongxian. Ji Yong said to Zhang Bai with a solemn face: "Today I came to Gongzi mainly to discuss one thing with Gongzi, when Gonggong Zhang told me when I first took office as the secretary of the Ministry of War, once the imperial capital changes, the only liliang we can trust and rely on is Dong Zhuo of the Liangzhou Corps in the north." Let's join forces with Dong Zhuo when necessary. ”

"What?" Zhang Bai looked at Ji Yong in front of him in surprise. It's as if I don't know Ji Yong. How could there be such an order, I had never heard of it at all. Zhang Bai looked at Ji Yong with questioning eyes, and Ji Yong nodded solemnly to Zhang Bai to indicate that what he said was right. Seeing Ji Yong's expression, Zhang Bai, who was originally frowning, was locked together this time, he had never heard of this order, if Zhang Rang didn't even trust him, then how could he trust Ji Yong and cooperate with Dong Zhuo. How do you work together?

"Childe, this is what Father-in-law Zhang asked me to hand over to you, he said that if one day things really reach the point where it is impossible to do anything, I will give this thing to you, and you will definitely believe it. Ji Yong took out a jade plaque from his arms and put it in front of Zhang Bai, and Zhang Bai's eyes suddenly lit up. Zhang Bai picked up the jade plaque on the table, his face was very solemn. This jade plaque is indeed the top secret token that Zhang Rang once showed Zhang Bai. Zhang Bai never expected that today would appear in Ji Yong's hands, along with the jade plate there is also a handwritten letter, after several confirmations, Zhang Bai also determined that this is Zhang Rang's handwritten letter.

"Childe, what we need to do now is not to think about the reason. Rather, it needs to be done. Ji Yong looked at Zhang Bai and said in a very resolute tone: "Now we are in internal and external difficulties, and we have two dog thieves, Zhao Gao and Wei Xian. In addition, we have rebellion, there are eight imperial merchants, and there are assassins from all over the country who do not respect the order. Now we can only mobilize to attack King Qin, first control the emperor and then we coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, when the time comes, we will control Sizhou, retreat to the death, train soldiers, recruit talents, and when the strength is strong, we will send troops to attack the rebels outside Sizhou. ”

"That's a good note, but how do we move our forces?"

"Childe, our biggest difficulty now is the transfer of troops. Gongzi also knows that we only have five guards regiments near the imperial capital, and three regiments are still in the border of Qingsi, among which we only need to use a little means to mobilize these three corps back, and then find a way to control the Tiger Prison Pass, and invite Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army to enter Beijing, and then we will fight to the death with Zhao Gao and Wei Xian!"

Ji Yong's words have been recognized by everyone, and now without knowing how much of the troops in his hands have been infiltrated by Zhao Gao, it is indeed a good way to mobilize peripheral troops to relieve the siege. It's just that since ancient times, it is easy to invite gods and difficult to send gods, Zhang Bai decisively thought that after Dong Zhuo's wolf-like Xiliang army entered the imperial capital, how much power could he Zhang Bai have? Thinking of these Zhang Bai's faces, a trace of hesitation flashed, and he really wanted to give it a go, after all, he not only had the strength of the Guards Legion in his hands, but also the Haojie Army was still under his command, and they could also draw a part of the troops, and the combat effectiveness of this part of the troops could at least be used by a corps.

"Childe, we can't hesitate. News came from Yongzhou that the rebels sent a new general to guard Yongzhou, and now they have defeated the local army in Yongzhou, and Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army was also beaten by him. At that time, we just want to mobilize Dong Zhuo's troops, I'm afraid it's too late in time, at that time we are the real lambs to the slaughter!" Ji Yong's passionate speech made Zhang Bai's heart moved, the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang army is one of the best in the empire, if the Xiliang army enters the imperial capital, they will indeed be able to eradicate Zhao Gao, but the consequences are indeed unpredictable.

"Chengfeng, what do you think?" Zhang Bai looked at Yin Chengfeng, who had always frowned, and wanted to hear Yin Chengfeng's idea, after all, the entire situation in the court was now supported by Zhang Bai and Yin Chengfeng.

"Childe, it's not impossible to transfer troops into Beijing, but the Xiliang Army is like a wolf and a tiger, once it enters the Imperial Capital, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to invite out, do we have to think about this matter in the long run?" Yin Chengfeng was also hesitant, if he really invited the Xiliang Army into Beijing at this time, they would be completely pinched by Dong Zhuo, and if Zhang Rang didn't wake up, they would have no ability to speak at all.

"Childe, Yin Commander, we are hesitant here, but Zhao Gao and Wei Xian will not wait here! Several officials are invited into Dongchang every day, if we continue to wait like this, we don't have to wait for Dong Zhuo's army to enter Beijing, we will die first!" Ji Yong, Fang Yun and Zhao Hai hurriedly knelt on the ground, crying with tears in their eyes, which suddenly made Zhang Bai's heart soften.

"Okay, this matter will be handed over to you, it must be done as soon as possible, let Dong Zhuo's army enter King Qin, and the more troops, the better. Zhang Bai thought about it and finally made up his mind, since the matter had come to this point, he Zhang Bai really didn't have any need to hesitate.

"The next official will do it. ”

"Also, immediately rectify the Guards, transfer the three corps back to me, and find a way to control the soldiers and horses of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, this time we must take the initiative, take advantage of the wind, you go and arrange it, let the intelligence personnel of the net start to secretly clean up the fans of the East Factory now, and they must not be allowed to continue to be caught like this."
