In the wilderness more than twenty miles away from Xinfeng, two armies were confronting each other.
On one side are the Guanzhong rebels, numbering over 100,000.
On the other side were officers and soldiers, numbering no more than 20,000.
On one side were the heads of various families, and on the other were the generals Pei Jian and Jiang Cunzhong.
"What are they waiting for?"
Although there were more than 100,000 troops, the family heads did not dare to take the initiative to attack. Wu You, the head of the Wu family who was elected as the leader, urged several times, but the family heads just shook their heads.
"Wouldn't it be better if we wait for work in leisure?"
"That's right, there are few officers and soldiers. Just wait for them to come up, and arrows will rain down from our side..."
"The generals discussed it and all agreed that it would be best to wait for the officers and soldiers to rush over."
"We are all new soldiers here. If we take the initiative to attack, the formation will be easily scattered, which will give the officers and soldiers an opportunity."
Wu You suppressed his anxiety and said: "The puppet emperor was eagerly awaiting the outcome of this battle in Chang'an, but he was overestimated.
As long as we defeat the current enemy, we can march all the way to Chang'an.
When the army arrived outside Chang'an, the powerful families in the city had already reached the end of their patience. Don't forget, there are also those powerful people, clans, and high-ranking officials. Which family is not full of slaves? Don't they hate the pseudo-emperor?
As long as the army reaches outside Chang'an, they will definitely rise up. At that time, the inside and outside will cooperate and the city of Chang'an will be destroyed."
"Capture the thief, capture the king, and seize the false emperor, and the Northern Xinjiang army will naturally be scattered. The world will fall into melee again. This is our opportunity!"
Wu You's people also followed the agitation, but the family heads were obviously hesitant.
On the opposite side, Jiang Cunzhong asked: "What are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for Your Majesty."
"What?"
Jiang Cunzhong's eyes widened, "Your Majesty is coming?"
"This news was sent by Jin Yiwei last night. I am not allowed to leak it. Until now, you know Li Fei's methods. If the news is leaked, you and I will not be able to escape punishment."
Concubine Li's experience is very surprising... In the Northern Liao royal family, the family rebelled and was punished. She escaped because of her young age. She stayed with the emperor's uncle for more than ten years, and finally defected to work for Li Xuan at that time.
In charge of secret spies...
Women's methods are often sharper and more straightforward than men's. Within Northern Xinjiang, everyone is afraid of the Jin Yiwei because they are afraid of the methods of this concubine.
"What are you doing here, Your Majesty?" Apparently Jiang Cunzhong did not dare to challenge Concubine Li.
"I said I brought the prince to see what the world is like." Pei Jian was also helpless, "Isn't the market in Chang'an not enough?"
Now that the rebels are right in front of him, he has to resist the urge to attack. What he fears most is losing his fighter plane!
On the opposite side, Wu You said angrily: "Look, the officers and soldiers on the opposite side have been afraid to move. It can be seen that they are afraid of our large numbers. I am even more worried that they are waiting for reinforcements. Everyone, once the reinforcements arrive... don't forget, the puppet
What is the emperor best at?"
"What the Pseudo-Emperor is best at is encircling a point and calling for reinforcements. That is to surround his opponent, or when confronting his opponent, he uses a partial force to make a surprise attack..."
"So, if you don't take action now, it will be too late!" Wu You blushed.
Everyone discussed it.
"good!"
"Then attack!"
Wu You said with a red face: "This is how you do great things. You don't need to worry. When the Li family raised the army, the officers and soldiers in Guanzhong were still outnumbered, but they were unjust and had few help, so that they were defeated like a mountain! The false emperor went against the grain.
, the people of Guanzhong have long been unable to bear it... People’s hearts are against us, so let’s fight today, my sons!”
Choking!
Wu You drew his sword, "Today will be recorded in history...attack!"
"Wan Sheng!"
The rebels shouted for a while, and then Sayazi rushed towards the officers and soldiers.
"Here we come." Jiang Cunzhong smiled and said, "It's no wonder we are here. We are ready to take action."
Facing more than 100,000 rebels, the 20,000 veterans of the Northern Xinjiang Army seemed particularly calm.
"Crossbow arrows..."
"Fire the arrow!"
Waves of crossbow arrows rose into the sky.
One wave fell, and another wave was already in mid-air.
Three-stage shooting appeared for the first time in Guanzhong, and the rebels were caught off guard.
"Who is that?" someone said, pointing to the hillside.
Wu You took a look and saw two riders slowly appearing above.
"A Liang, look, this is the last battle in Guanzhong."
"Aye, there are so many of them."
"When the country's fortunes are prosperous, the soldiers can fight one against ten. When the country's fortunes are declining, a foreigner dares to chase and kill more than a hundred people, and no one dares to look back."
"Is the relationship between national destiny and morale so closely related?"
"What is the destiny of the country? The sum of everyone's circumstances is the destiny of the country. Can you understand, A Liang?"
"Oh! If most people can have enough to eat and live well, then the national destiny will be prosperous. If most people are hungry, the national destiny will decline..."
"right!"
The emperor smiled and said: "My father brought you to watch this battle because he wanted you to see what a person driven by desire looks like."
Ah Liang said: "Are you talking about the big family in Guanzhong?"
"Yes, normal people, anyone with a sound mind, all know how powerful the army under my father's command is. More than 100,000 farmers who were still farming a while ago, even if they practiced from time to time in the past, can't compare with these murderous soldiers.
They are as weak as children. But they know they are weak, so why do they still dare to rebel?"
"Driven by desire." A Liang gradually realized, "Desire can make people confused, and the power can make people stupid."
"Excessive desires often run counter to reason."
The rebel formation, which was struggling to move forward in the rain of arrows, seemed to be somewhat scattered.
"Aye, then we can easily defeat them."
"Yes, but those are all people from the Tang Dynasty!"
The emperor said: "They are all poor people driven by those ambitious people. They have been slaves for generations, so that they regard those ambitious people as their heaven. Today, my father will destroy their heaven!"
"Are we going to rush for the kill?" A Liang was a little excited.
"No need." The emperor waved to the foot of the mountain without turning around, "Big flag!"
At the bottom of the hillside, the flag bearer rode up.
…
"Lao Pei, a quarter of an hour!" Jiang Cunzhong's eyes became more serious, "As long as we block it for a quarter of an hour, the rebels' morale will definitely decline. Let's launch another attack and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop."
"almost!"
Pei Jian nodded.
The two of them watched the rebels rushing forward in a calm manner.
In an instant, miserable howls from the front flooded into my ears.
Wu You clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could rush up and kick his subordinates in the butts and drive them in.
"Wu Gong!"
"Wu Gong, big flag!"
"What big flag?"
Wu You slowly turned sideways and looked towards the hillside.
The two riders were still there, and a big flag slowly appeared from behind them...
"Who?" Wu You's voice was filled with surprise.
The flags came up little by little.
From behind the two riders, he raised it high.
Wu You covered his forehead and screamed: "It's Long Qi!"
A big flag appeared behind the emperor and his son. On the big flag, there was a dragon roaring filial piety.
"The emperor is here in person!"
The screams spread.
Several generals looked pale, but one of them remained calm and said: "Get back immediately!"
Wu You gritted his teeth and said, "Why are you withdrawing? Go in and defeat the current officers and soldiers..."
He thought of what the emperor was best at.
Surround the place to call for help!
Countless powerful opponents in the past fell to the emperor's move.
Compared with those powerful opponents, they are as weak as women.
"withdraw!"
Wu You shouted.
But the rebels ahead had already spotted the banner.
"It's the dragon flag!"
One of the rebels shouted in panic.
"The emperor is here."
A person's name, a tree's shadow.
Suddenly, various rumors about the emperor flashed in the rebels' minds.
——Earlier he was a famous general of the Tang Dynasty.
——The most famous general of the Tang Dynasty!
——The famous marshal of the Tang Dynasty!
——The most famous handsome man in the Tang Dynasty!
And the emperor loved to pile up mountains of corpses!
Unparalleled marshal!
I also like Mountain of Corpses and Sea of Blood!
In an instant, the rebels' mentality collapsed.
The first rebel turned around and ran away, and then the morale of the rebels quickly collapsed.
I said a quarter of an hour! Jiang Cunzhong: "..."
Pei Jian: "..."
"Discover the dragon flag!" the lookout shouted from the cart: "Your Majesty is here in person!"
The dragon flag represents the emperor!
"Wan Sheng!"
Twenty thousand troops cheered.
"Your Majesty is here!" Pei Jian said angrily: "Quick, attack, attack, surrender!"
"Lao Pei, what are you anxious about?"
"Your Majesty said that the 20,000 men and horses in Chang'an should not be touched lightly, but other than that, where did the men and horses in Chang'an come from?"
"You mean, His Majesty doesn't have many people around him?"
"What do you think?"
"Fuck! Attack!"
On the high slope, the dragon flag flutters in the wind.
Under the high slope, Wang Laoer led a thousand riders and said impatiently: "Your Majesty, when will it be my turn to kill the enemy! Just give me a message!"
Lin Feibao and others smiled.
Ah Liang saw the rebels crumbling, and looked this way while fleeing. He slowly turned back to look at Long Qi, "Aye, they are afraid of Long Qi."
"No! They are afraid of their fathers!"
The pursuers behind were trying to surrender, but the rebels didn't have a strong will to fight, and soon they were kneeling everywhere.
Wu You and others galloped away, complaining to each other as they fled.
"Where are we going?"
someone asked.
"Go to Shu and join your Majesty!"
At this moment, Shu Land has become a paradise in the eyes of these people.
Two thousand riders were waiting silently in front.
Black armor.
The leading general raised his horse.
"Dismount your horse, abandon your sword and kneel down!"
"It's Xuan Jiaqi!"
As the emperor's military force guarantee, Xuan Jiaqi has been stationed in Chang'an. Now that he appeared here, the expressions of several generals changed dramatically.
"This is the trick of the false emperor, we can't escape!"
After the emperor arrived at the battlefield, he did not join the officers and soldiers, but ordered the accompanying Xuanjia Cavalry to intercept from the rear. In other words, from the beginning, the emperor concluded that the rebels would be defeated.
This self-confidence instantly destroyed the hopes of these careerists.
Pei Jian and Jiang Cunzhong rode up to Gaopo and saluted, "I have met your Majesty!"
"Thank you for your hard work." The emperor nodded, "I brought the prince here because I want him to know that killing is often a last resort. Some people can't do it without killing!"
The emperor patted the prince on the shoulder and said, "Let's go down!"
At this moment, there were surrendering rebels everywhere below, with Lin Feibao and others guarding both sides. After coming down, the emperor ordered: "Bring those rebel leaders, and also bring a few of those slave rebel sergeants. I
Want to ask questions."
"yes!"
Wu You and others were kidnapped and sent over by Wu Hua Da, along with some rebel soldiers.
"Your Majesty, spare your life!" someone begged. Wu You sneered and said, "Skeleton!"
The emperor looked at him with his hands behind his hands and said: "I am very curious. The world has been settled for the first time and the people of the world are at peace, but you are going against the trend and rebelling. Have you ever thought that if you succeed, the world will die?
How many people?”
Ah Liang looked at Wu You, and the knowledge he read in the book flashed through his mind...
kindness!
kindness!
kindness!
"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit." Wu You laughed, "How many people died has nothing to do with me?"
Boom!
Ah Liang seemed to hear a thunderclap in his ears.
He looked at his father and blurted out, "Kill to stop killing!"
