Chapter 122: All of this was actually expected by the prince
At this moment, Emperor Wei is already like a candle in the wind, he was too overdrawn when he was young, and he suffered many assassinations, duels, etc., he has met countless enemies in this life, and it is not easy to survive until now.
Moreover, when he heard that his eldest son, who had always felt guilty, had an accident, he was so grieved that the injuries that had been suppressed in his body erupted like a volcano.
All kinds of injuries suffered when they were young have also accumulated to a certain extent, and the situation at this moment can be described as difficult to treat, which makes people feel weak.
He knew that his life might be short, so he arranged the funeral in advance, but the thought that his eldest son had already left before him made him grief-stricken and miserable.
He was an emperor, a father, and a man.
He was not as ruthless as the emperors recorded in the history books, and it was his own son who died, and he was very painful.
Chen Qingzhi asked an adjutant general to lead the army north to Qingzhou, while he led 7,000 cavalry carefully trained by himself to rush to Qingzhou first, wanting to explore the recent situation in Qingzhou.
These 7,000 cavalry were called the white-robed army by him.
White horses, white armor, white robes, and 7,000 cavalrymen wearing filial piety cloth marched out of the city.
Outside the city, Li Ziyuan waited for a long time.
He only explained one sentence to Chen Qingzhi, "No matter whether this battle is won or lost, the general had better never return to the capital." ”
Although Chen Qingzhi guessed something, he didn't dare to think about it, and after saying goodbye to Li Ziyuan, he hurried forward.
In a restaurant.
This is the largest and tallest restaurant in Beijing.
A group of scholars who are famous all over the world are gathering here at this moment.
They sat together on the highest floor, and after seeing Chen Qingzhi leading his troops out of the capital through the window, they got up one after another, poured a glass of wine to the ground, and said in unison: "Respect General Chen's victory!"
Then everyone poured another glass of wine and said: "His Royal Highness King Qi will not retreat from the battle!
After saying this, he took out a white cloth from his bosom and tied it to his forehead.
After a while, the Four Princes came.
Everyone shook their heads, and then someone said to him: "The scholars in the Shilin, together with all my friends, have already sent a message to inform them of the situation in the capital, and in about two days, they will set out from all the counties of the country and rush to the capital."
They are all reading seeds, and they are backed by the family, so they should be able to help His Royal Highness the Four Princes. ”
The fourth prince looked at him, then at everyone, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Don't fight." ”
Some people were puzzled and wondered, "Why is this?"
The fourth prince drank a glass of wine and said, "Father won't let me." ”
Contend... I can't fight either.
Let the second and third fight to the death first.
Two days later.
Border of Chu State.
In the camp of Wei Jun Cao.
When the third prince, King Qin, learned that his father was seriously ill, he was anxious, and secretly informed the founding fathers and martial arts families scattered all over the country that he could raise 100,000 troops in the case of the whole country mobilizing troops in Qingzhou.
These 100,000 troops, disguised as ordinary people, secretly hid war horses, bows and crossbows, blades, armor, siege equipment, etc. inside and outside the capital.
It is impossible not to leak the news, but at such a critical moment, Zhao Changxuan no longer cares about anything.
At least by the time the news leaked, everything had been arranged.
In Cao's camp, he still has 30,000 light cavalry cronies, who are ready to enter Chang'an tomorrow under the pretext of aiding Qingzhou.
After Cao Shen learned the news of the death of the King of Qi, he was very sad in his heart, and after learning from the pain, he pointed to the source of all the contradictions to the Jin army.
At this moment, he just wanted to end the battle in Chu State as soon as possible, and then go to Qingzhou to see what was going on.
King Qi he... How could he die in battle like this!
Qingzhou border.
What is Zhao Changqing doing at this moment?
Sleeping.
Since they say to the outside world that they have hung up, then just do a dead man's business, they love to toss, they want to toss as much as they want, they are already tired anyway.
Zhao Changqing is surrounded by the Sword Pavilion brothers, and there is no need to worry about his safety, with him as the center, within a radius of a few hundred meters, there is not a single soldier, and it is said that it is impossible to disturb the sleep of his body.
He has also thought a lot in the past two days, which has caused today's situation, and he does not blame himself for wanting to play one play at a time, nor does he blame himself for being reckless, let alone blaming himself for blindly commanding.
Anyway, he didn't feel that he had lost anything, after the wave of battles a few days ago, although he was trapped here, he would definitely be able to gain some mediocrity.
Of course, this is not important, the important thing is that he realized what caused his current passivity, isn't it that he is just a prince and not an emperor?
If you are the emperor, why do you need to look forward to the future so much? On the one hand, you want to be mediocre, and on the other hand, you also want to keep Qingzhou, otherwise you are afraid that the emperor Lao Tzu will blame you.
If this Wei State is his own, and he is the emperor, do you still need to be so careful in doing things?
In this way, Zhao Changqing is even more eager to get the throne, only after becoming the emperor, can he act and do things without restraint, and he can follow his own heart.
But how can you ascend to the throne in a short period of time?
It's a question worth pondering.
Although Zhao Changqing has been trapped for four days now, and he is about to run out of ammunition, Zhuge Liang does not have the slightest anxious look.
He was strategizing in the border city and had been waiting for an opportunity.
Until a scout came to report, "Tell the military division, the scout at the front has got the latest news, the enemy commander Ge Hong personally led an army of 200,000 people is preparing to go to the barren mountain!"
Zhuge Liang laughed loudly, "Summoning the sword hero and the generals." ”
After a while, the generals of the border cities of Qingzhou gathered together, and they saw that the military division was actually full of smiles on their faces, and they were puzzled in their hearts, you need to know, His Royal Highness the King of Qi still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead!
The generals only heard him say: "Everyone, the time has come to break the enemy, and the barren mountain where the prince is trapped will be Ge Hong's cemetery!"
The generals looked at each other, even more puzzled, and Jian Yi asked directly: "Strategist, don't sell Guanzi, these days we are worried about the safety of the prince, we can be said to be anxious!"
Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "I haven't sent troops to save the prince in the past few days, and there is a reason. First, without time brewing, the enemy commander Ge Hong would not believe that the prince had returned to heaven at all, but in the past few days, inside and outside Wei, whether it was a peddler or a celebrity, all knew about the death of the prince, so that the enemy army could not believe it or not.
Second, Ge Hong believed that after that, he would personally send a large army over, wanting to determine the life and death of the prince or get the body of the prince, as the key to the battle situation in Qingzhou. When he comes, he will encamp on the spot, and the barren mountains will be full of dry wood, and he will be put to ashes with a little fire.
At that time, under fierce fire, we only need to send a crack army to destroy the enemy army once and for all. This is also what Liang has been thinking about for these days, and I have been thinking about why the prince has to flee there, and he has to go up the mountain to be besieged by the enemy.
It wasn't until yesterday that I learned about the terrain near the barren mountain that I suddenly realized, it turned out that the prince had prepared it there as the cemetery of the Jin army in the morning, which is why the prince was so proficient in fighting with soldiers, and he would actually get into such an obvious trap as the enemy army, all of this was planned by the prince for a long time, since the prince sent out the army, it is estimated that everything is within his expectations. ”
When the generals heard Zhuge Liang's words, they were all a little confused, and someone said: "All this is really arranged by the prince in advance? This is too godly, isn't it? And once the fire is set on fire, the prince is also in the barren mountain area, it must be inevitable!"
