Chen Xuanli's mentality of reaping the benefits was all because Yang Guozhong had repeatedly eliminated dissidents in the court over the years, controlled the government, and disrupted the government. It can be said that the court was hostile to Yang Guozhong and even wanted to kill him.

There are not a few people, but many people are intimidated by Yang Guozhong's lust and dare not speak out. There are also some people who have an attitude that it has nothing to do with it. Yang Guozhong has not persecuted them, or has not conflicted with them, so there is no need to

Instead of confronting them head-on, treat them like an outsider.

Just like Chen Xuanli, in the court, because he did not have much dealings with Yang Guozhong, there was no direct conflict of interest, and he would not rise up against Yang Guozhong at court meetings. But in the face of a national crisis, Yang Guozhong's wrong decision led to

After the defeat of Tongguan, the anger in his heart finally broke out. It was when the palace officials criticized Yang Guozhong's behavior, and after Yang Xi led his army to rescue Tongguan and the emperor ordered him to lead the follow-up reinforcements for emergency reinforcements, he also deliberately delayed and even wanted to

"Watching a tiger fight from afar" depends on the misfortune of Yang Guozhong and his family.

Because this method is relatively hidden, it is difficult for others to criticize, and there is no fear of punishment from the emperor.

But Yang Guozhong knew this situation, or he expected that Chen Xuanli would deliberately delay, so he met with the emperor repeatedly and asked the emperor to order Chen Xuanli to speed up. Yang Guozhong knew that at this time, any of his orders or requests would be far away.

It cannot be compared with the emperor's orders, at least in the case of Chen Xuanli. Yang Guozhong also knew that Chen Xuanli was very prejudiced against him. After Ge Shuhan's defeat at Tongguan this time, he even stood up in the court and publicly asked the emperor to punish him. This made him

He hates it, but he also knows that if Chen Xuanli leads his army to Tongguan, he will definitely not obey Yang Xi's orders. He may ask Yang Xi to obey Chen Xuanli's orders, which he cannot tolerate.

Therefore, after Chen Xuanli led all subsequent reinforcements to set off, he immediately went to see Emperor Li Longji again.

Before asking to see Li Longji, he also went to the imperial concubine Yang Yuhuan and several of Yang Yuhuan's sisters, Mrs. Korea, Mrs. Guo, and Mrs. Qin, and told them his intention and asked them to make a petition in front of the emperor.

.

After getting several promises from Yang Yuhuan's sisters, Yang Guozhong entered the palace to see the emperor.

Because of the disastrous defeat in the Battle of Lingbao, Tongguan became a dangerous city. The anxious Li Longji could not sit still and did not think about food or food. He often summoned Yang Guozhong, Wei Jiansu and other ministers to discuss the military situation and countermeasures. When Yang Guozhong asked for a meeting, he was immediately granted a meeting. Yang Guozhong asked.

When they met, the concubine Yang Yuhuan, who was dressed in plain clothes and looked a little haggard, was carefully beating the back of Li Longji, who was hiding on the couch with his eyes closed. Yang Guozhong came in and did not avoid seeing her.

"Your Majesty! General Zuo Longwu Chen Xuanli has already led all the troops to set off." Yang Guozhong, after getting a look from Yang Yuhuan, stepped forward and saluted Li Longji, reported the situation first, and immediately requested: "I'm afraid they are on the way.

The delay has delayed the rescue of Tongguan. I sincerely ask Your Majesty to issue another edict to speed up the march of the army and strive to reach Tongguan as soon as possible to avoid any unexpected events!"

"Well, I know it. I will immediately send you my order to order Chen Xuanli to speed up his journey. He must arrive at Tongguan before dark tomorrow. There must be no mistake!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Gao Lishi, who was waiting aside, immediately conveyed Li Longji's order.

After Gao Lishi went to convey the order, Li Longji also opened his half-closed eyes, stared at Yang Guozhong who was standing respectfully in front of him, showed a bitter smile, sighed and said: "Guozhong, I am

I didn’t expect that in the midst of a national crisis, your underage son would have to step forward to take charge of military affairs! I really didn’t expect that Shiro would be so brave. After arriving at Tongguan, he reorganized military affairs with vigorous and resolute means, and also obtained the security of the enemy.

The victory of the rebels in the first battle severely damaged the rebels and slowed down the rebels' attack on Tongguan! I am also very pleased that you have such an outstanding son!"

"Your Majesty, you are very complimentary." Yang Guozhong quickly saluted to express his modesty. "The dog dared to do this because he was overly favored by me, which made him lawless! Fortunately, he was so lawless that he managed to get through it and won several battles! Your Majesty

, I am also very surprised that Quanzi has such ability, and I hope he will have more amazing performances in the subsequent defense of the city, and can finally stop the rebels in front of Tongguan City!"

At this time, Yang Yuhuan, who had been silent for a long time and carefully patted Li Longji's back, spoke up, "Your Majesty, I have said before that our Yang family has never been short of capable people. Guozhong is so capable, and Shiro is even better than his master."

Yu Lan, who was not as young as the weak champion, was so capable. He was able to lead the army to guard Tongguan and inflict heavy losses on the rebels. It is really surprising! As the saying goes, the ambition is not in the age. From Ge Shuhan to Wang Sili, Li Chengguang and other generals now

Judging from our willingness to obey Shiro's instructions, Shiro's performance this time may be even better than we imagined!"

"Well, what Yuhuan said is right. Shiro is indeed capable. Now I fully expect him to command the Tongguan generals and keep the rebels out of the city!" At this point, Li Longji showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, looked at Yang Guozhong, and said slightly

He said with emotion: "Guozhong, I see that Shiro's methods of dealing with things are more decisive than yours. He successively killed Yanshan County King Huoba Guiren and Supervisor Bian Lingcheng in the army! This is called decisive killing, but I am not

You know, he did this just to show his determination and gain the support of the generals, and now it seems that he succeeded! I guess his subsequent performance will be even more surprising!"

"Your Majesty, I also hope that he can do better, stop the rebels outside Tongguan City, and even severely injure the rebels and defeat the rebels," Yang Guozhong echoed Li Longji's words and immediately announced that he would enter the palace this time.

The purpose was stated: "But Your Majesty, I am still worried! After all, Silang is young and it is difficult to control Ge Shuhan, Li Chengguang, Wang Sili and other generals. Now these people should be intimidated by His Majesty's power and dare not mess with Silang's will.

I just temporarily obeyed Shiro's command! This should be related to the fact that Ge Shuhan lost all his troops. If Ge Shuhan still had a large number of troops, he would definitely not obey Shiro's command! I am worried that Shiro cannot control such a situation.

There are many generals, not to mention Longwu General Chen Xuanli who led tens of thousands of troops to the aid of Tongguan!"

"Oh?!" Li Longji responded softly, looking noncommittal, staring at Yang Guozhong, asking Yang Guozhong to continue.

Yang Guozhong also immediately said the following: "His Majesty has issued an edict to remove Ge Shuhan from the post of deputy marshal of troops and horses. Now there is no marshal leading the army on the Tongguan front line, whether it is Ge Shuhan, Chen Xuanli, or even Wang Sili, Li Chengguang and others who have been held in the army

None of them are lower than Shiro. I would like to implore Your Majesty to grant Shiro the position of deputy marshal of troops and horses, and to dispatch and command the armies as marshal, so that there will be no situation where military orders cannot be effectively executed!"

After Yang Guozhong finished speaking, he looked at Li Longji nervously, and even secretly winked at Yang Yuhuan!
Chapter completed!
