Chapter 504: For the sake of Datang Sheji!
On the Wei army's side, it was originally planned to wait until all the eleventh route armies were gathered before deciding to attack the city.
But Zhao Changqing was no longer willing to wait.
The main thing is to try it, and at present, the Tang Army, which has come from all over the country to protect King Qin, is to what extent is its combat power.
The first battle is a temptation.
An army of 300,000 was lined up outside the city.
Zhao Changqing was dressed in battle armor, sat on horseback, and shouted: "I am the Emperor of Great Wei, call out Li Qingcang, the emperor of your Tang Kingdom, so that I can see what kind of demeanor my subordinates are now when they are defeated!"
He deliberately said this, the purpose of which was to let the soldiers on both sides of the enemy know what was happening in the Tang Kingdom.
"I heard that he has now been monitored by Wang Yunhe, Zuo Buqun, Fang Xin and others, and has been reduced to a prisoner, is this true or false? Let Li Qingcang come out and say that I can help him and kill these three people, and then, I am fighting a dignified battle with him!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army began to talk about it.
In the past few days, they have already learned some rumors.
But unwilling to believe.
Mainly because the emperor came from afar to protect King Qin, but the emperor was trapped by the generals and marshals in the army, who can accept this?
Except for the personal guards of Wang Yunhe and others, almost no one knew the whole story.
However, paper can't contain fire after all, and after the rumors, the next thing is endless suspicion.
Wang Yunhe and Zuo Buqun are at the head of the city at the moment.
When Zhao Changqing finished speaking, they obviously felt that there were a lot of eyes around them, cast on their bodies.
There are all kinds of emotions in that kind of gaze.
Zuo Buqun said coldly: "This Zhao Changqing, his mouth is too poisonous! It seems that there are many secret agents of the enemy country in the city, and even in the inner courtyard of the palace!"
Wang Yunhe lowered his voice and said: "These days, the soldiers have been suspicious of us, otherwise, I will ask Your Majesty to come forward, as long as Your Majesty comes forward, all the gossip will be self-defeating, and the enthusiasm of the soldiers to defend the city will also be improved, otherwise, I am afraid that with a few words, I will not be able to dispel the doubts in the hearts of the soldiers by arguing with the other party here." ”
Zuo Buqun whispered: "Will Your Majesty agree to come forward?"
Wang Yunhe was also not sure, "I can only give it a try." ”
Zuo Buqun nodded and said, "Okay, you go, go and come back quickly, I'll be here to guard." ”
Wang Yunhe left the city.
Zhao Changqing saw that there was no movement in the capital of the Tang Kingdom, so he was puzzled, and said to Chen Qingzhi beside him: "What are the enemy troops doing?
Chen Qingzhi sat on horseback and hugged his fists and said, "Let the last general take people to attack once?"
Zhao Changqing waved his hand, "Don't be impatient, wait and see." ”
The scolding he had just now, but he didn't see any rebuttal coming from the city.
It's really confusing.
Wang Yunhe came to the emperor's bedroom.
In the past few days, Li Qingcang seems to have aged for more than ten years in an instant.
There are also more gray hairs than before.
He looked particularly haggard and depressed.
When Wang Yunhe saw him like this, he couldn't help sighing, hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, you have suffered in the past few days. ”
Li Qingcang snorted coldly: "You rebellious ministers and thieves, you also have the face to see me?"
Wang Yunhe fell to his knees, kowtowed to him hard, and then got up.
Looking at his actions, Li Qingcang sneered again and again, "I came here today, and I know how to kneel down for me, which shows that you are not bad to the bones, you came here to force the palace?"
Wang Yunhe shook his head, "I told Your Majesty before that the last general would never do such a rebellious thing. ”
Li Qingcang gritted his teeth and said: "I was trapped in this palace, and I was also tied up here, but you told me that you would not do such a rebellious thing? Do you think I am ridiculous, or are you still childlike?"
Wang Yunhe took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I came here today to ask Your Majesty for something. ”
Li Qingcang said: "Asking for my matter? Ridiculous! Don't you want me to write a Zen decree?"
Wang Yunhe opened his mouth and said: "The last general hopes that you can go to the city to boost the morale of the soldiers of the three armies." ”
"The Wei army has attacked the city?"
After hearing the sound, Li Qingcang was slightly stunned and blurted out.
Wang Yunhe smiled bitterly: "It is worthy of Your Majesty, your eyes are like a torch, in one word." ”
Li Qingcang turned around, stood with his hands in his hands, and said bluntly: "In the past few days, I have often wondered, why, you still don't attack me, I always think that the time has not come. Now I see that it is not that the time has not come, but that the army of King Qin, who came from all over the country, has not been firmly controlled by you, and they are still loyal to me. Most of them have seen what I look like, and you have no other way, if you take the opportunity to kill me, I am afraid that a greater mutiny will be waiting for you. ”
"Your Majesty is right. After a pause, Wang Yunhe continued to speak: "But Your Majesty, we never thought that one day, we would turn against you! After all, the matter of our imprisoning of Your Majesty has been spread from various channels, and people are talking about it and making noise endlessly, which greatly affects the morale of the soldiers defending the city. ”
Li Qingcang narrowed his eyes, "I probably understand what you mean, why did I help you? I helped you stabilize the morale of the army, didn't I put me to death? What's more, aren't you afraid that I will incite the three armies and kill you and others?"
Wang Yunhe said decisively: "Your Majesty will not do this, unless, you are willing to see the prince die tragically in the palace, and the Tang State is captured by the Wei State and no longer exists." ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Li Qingcang's back, and said again: "Whether Your Majesty believe it or not, the last general has no intention of rebelling, the last general does this, but he doesn't want the royal power and the prime minister's power to override the military power, although this approach is a bit extreme, but, for now, this is the best way." Your Majesty only needs to go to the city and say something inspiring, or just stand on the city for a while, and your Majesty will be safe!"
Li Qingcang said: "You threaten me with the prince?"
Wang Yunhe lowered his posture very low, "It's not a threat, it's a plea!"
"Pleading?"
Li Qingcang sneered when he heard this: "Your pleading, you are sharp!"
Wang Yunhe simply knelt down again and said: "Please Your Majesty for the sake of the Tang Kingdom, temporarily give up personal grievances, at present, all the top priorities should be to fight against the national disaster together!
Li Qingcang slowly closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
Wang Yunhe kowtowed to him again.
"Alas. ”
After a while, he heard the emperor sigh.
Wang Yunhe raised his head.
At this time, Li Qingcang turned around, looked at him and said unwillingly: "I, for the sake of the Tang Dynasty today, I will believe you once! If you dare to make any bad moves, I believe that I am sure that I am sure enough to fight with you, and you will live or die!"
Whether this is true or not, it is not something that Wang Yunhe should consider now.
Now, he only focuses on the war.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the last general has always had no objection, and he has no choice but to make this decision, it is really because, over the years, the status of my Tang Dynasty warriors is too low, and let a group of people who don't know how to fight war, indiscriminately command an unprecedented war, how can it be undefeated?"
After Li Qingcang heard his voice, he flicked his sleeves, snorted coldly, and said, "Let's go!
