Just when Zhao Kuangyin was gathering troops and inciting the emotions of the front minister.
Luo Youdu had already boarded the warship of the Zhou Navy at Biankou and was sailing down the Bian River.
Luo Youdu's route southward was slightly different from Guo Rong's.
Guo Rong went south through Chanzhou, where the current was gentle and easy to cross. Luo Youdu had a navy at hand, so there was no need to crowd the Yellow River pontoon bridge.
In order to reach Bianjing as soon as possible, Luo Youdu asked the navy to wait on the north bank of the Yellow River when he withdrew his troops from Youzhou.
Otherwise, given the navy's ability to operate day and night, they would have reached Bianjing as early as three days ago by traveling through the Zhuoshui River.
After the navy transported the infantry and horse troops to the south bank of the Yellow River, they prepared to rest for the night at the Bianshui mouth of the Yellow River. Otherwise, 20,000 naval troops would arrive in an instant at night, and the warships would block the Bianshui River and affect the merchant ships that transported water to and from the river.
But now Luo Youdu couldn't care so much. With one order, 20,000 navy troops went down the river.
Although Bianjing is small, its waterways are indeed developed, with nine water gates alone.
However, Luo Youdu arrived in Bianjing in about half an hour, but he did not enter the city directly through Yongshun Water Gate. Instead, he used Yongshun Water Gate as the main road and the army gathering here would affect the daily life of Bianjing, so he detoured to the northeast of Li.
Good water gate.
In fact, it was because Han Tong lived in the northeast of Bianjing. It was really abnormal and you could tell at a glance.
If Guo Rong's life is really hanging by a thread and he has to make an arrangement to be an orphan, Han Tong cannot possibly not know about it.
He is now in the same situation as Zhao Kuangyin, and it is impossible to collude with him.
If there is a real change in the capital, Han Tong's soldiers and the 20,000 naval troops from outside the city are enough to deal with most changes.
Luo Youdu folded his hand issued by the council and handed it to the soldiers guarding the city, indicating that he came under the imperial edict.
Naturally, the 20,000-strong army could not enter the city together, but the main ship he was riding in was able to pass through.
Because his foot was sprained and he couldn't ride a horse, Luo Youdu naturally asked people to find a carriage for him, and at the same time asked him to find Zhao Pu.
But the first person to wait was not Zhao Pu, but Han Tong.
Han Tong, the bodyguard and military commander.
The biggest advantage of Bianjing is its convenient transportation and land and water fortress. The biggest problem is that it is too small...
The Forbidden Army is just a general term and does not really mean guarding the palace.
After all, for a palace as big as Dazhou, a small place with a three-story restaurant that overlooks the entire palace cannot even accommodate hundreds of thousands of imperial troops.
In the true sense of the Forbidden Army, there were only Dianqiansi in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The responsibility of the Palace Front Division is to guard the palace. As for the Imperial Camp Division, it is responsible for the security of the inner city of Bianjing, mainly the Kaifeng Prefecture, the Third Division, the Sixth Ministry and other institutions outside the imperial city. The Guards and Military Division is responsible for the security of the outer city.
As soon as Luo Youdu's ship entered the outer city, Han Tong, who had been gathering troops in the dark and watched the movements in Bianjing, got the news.
He immediately became energetic and came to see him in a hurry.
There is no other reason than lack of brains.
Until now, he still doesn't quite understand what happened. He only knows that he woke up his son Han Wei in his sleep and told him that the front office of the palace was abnormal, that there might be a rebellion, and that someone was attacking Donghua Gate.
Han Tong was so frightened that he lost all sleep, but after careful investigation, he learned that Han Wei's source of information was actually an unknown person behind the scenes.
Even such important news was delivered by people behind the scenes through gangsters.
If his son hadn't been frail and sick since childhood, Han Tong would have wanted to slap him.
Can you believe what this cat and dog say?
But after Han Wei's persuasion, Han Tong reluctantly listened.
It's not because he believed the gangster's words and dispatched troops to deal with it. It was because Han Wei said that if something was really strange, the other side would definitely send troops to control Hanzhai.
Seeing that his son was steadfast in his oath, Han Tong simply took his little boy and quietly went to his old ministry's home to be on guard, leaving a close aide waiting nearby.
Han Tong had been working away from home and was transferred back to Bianjing in the past year. He didn't know many people and didn't know who to look for.
He went to Donghuamen himself to check out the situation.
Sure enough, something unusual was discovered, and news was obtained that a troop of troops blocked the front and rear doors of Hanzhai...
Han Tong is blind now. He doesn't know what's going on at night. He doesn't know the enemy or ourselves. Even though he knows there is a problem, he doesn't dare to act rashly. He can only gather the soldiers patrolling around and make plans after the situation becomes clear.
.
He was hiding in the northeast of the city. Luo Youdu's warship entered the city from the northeast water gate, and he knew it immediately.
After observing for a while and confirming that there was no danger, he boarded the ship to pay a visit in person.
Han Tong said straight to the point: "Why is the army here at night?"
Luo Youdu didn't say anything and handed over his fold.
Han Tong frowned as he looked at the handbook issued by the council.
It is no secret that Guo Rong is critically ill. There is no need for Luo Youdu to come in such a hurry.
Unless Guo Rong wakes up.
But if you really want to wake up, why do you have no news at all?
Behind Han Tong, Han Wei glanced at the folded hands and exclaimed: "The general army must not go there. Your going here is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth, with a narrow escape from death."
Han Tong also came to his senses and said: "To rule the army is not to avenge a certain man. Zhao Kuangyin is very ambitious. He has been supporting Zhang Lingduo and intends to win over the guards and pro-military officers for his use. All the unusual things tonight indicate that there is a change in the capital.
"
The moment Han Tong appeared, Luo Youdu had already realized that something was wrong.
Luo Youdu took another look at Han Wei and said: "My hand came out of the council hall, which means that the real change was not caused by Zhao Kuangyin alone, but by colluding with a certain prime minister. Now the prime minister has the power to mobilize troops, and Zhao Kuangyin has the power to command troops.
The palace is in their hands, and so are your majesty, the queen, and the prince. The power belongs to him, not to us, and we cannot act rashly. If they try to overthrow us and accuse us of colluding and confusing right and wrong, that would not be a good idea."
Han Tong's face changed slightly.
Luo Youdu continued: "Stay unchanged and cope with the ever-changing situation. Commander Bu, secretly gather the soldiers and horses of your bodyguard and military department. I have to understand the situation before I can make a decision."
Han Tong sighed helplessly: "A certain person has gathered more than a thousand people, but the soldiers are scattered in various streets to guard, making it difficult to gather. If we really need troops, we have to go out of the city and go to the military camp outside the city to mobilize troops. But now we don't have the right to mobilize troops."
, it really gives me a headache.”
Luo Youdu said: "Don't worry, we can gather as many as we can. It is impossible for all three of the three gentlemen to be used by Zhao Kuangyin. I will sit here and contact everyone, and I will find out everything."
Han Tong bowed and said, "I will deal with it now."
Luo Youdu closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and immediately made a new arrangement: let people invite Zhang Yongde and Wang Pu.
While Luo Youdu was waiting for Zhang Yongde and Wang Pu, Zhao Pu and Zhang Jin came in a hurry.
During this meeting, Zhao Pu's old habit relapsed: "The commander of the army had a miraculous calculation. His subordinates guessed that the thieves would lure the commander's army into the city, and arranged for manpower to provide early warning at various city gates. He did not want the commander's army to unexpectedly enter through the water gate directly. The subordinates admired it.
…”
As Zhao Kuangyin said, Fan Zhi may be a better person than administration.
But compared with intrigues and intrigues, Fan Zhi is like a younger brother in Zhao Pu's eyes.
Whatever Fan Zhi thought of, Zhao Pu had already thought of it. Even if Fan Zhi didn't think of it, Zhao Pu also thought of it, and he took precautions in advance.
In terms of conspiracy and conspiracy, Zhao Pu still has few opponents in this era.
Even if Luo Youdu didn't have this idea and came really quickly, Fan Zhi's trap would not be successful.
Luo Youdu looked at Zhao Pu and asked: "How is the situation now? Madam, is Chou Chou okay?"
Zhao Pu said: "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, not only the eldest lady and young master, but also Mr. Zhou, eldest lady Zhou, young lady Zhou, and their subordinates have made arrangements to ensure their safety."
Luo Youdu praised: "Well done."
He was a little ashamed that he had really forgotten about it after such a big week.
Zhao Pu also arranged them properly, which is indeed remarkable.
Seeing that there was no one around, Zhao Pu said in a low voice: "There is a small incident now. King Wei kidnapped Queen Fu and several princes from the palace. Their whereabouts are unknown now. King Wei was the first to tell us to hide them."
.”
Luo Youdu smiled and said: "My old father-in-law is really good at not taking action, and one strike will be fatal. With his strike, we are in an invincible position."
He heard the hidden meaning and asked curiously: "The first one? Who else?"
Zhao Pu said: "Servant Fu Yu!"
After Fu Yu deceived the Donghua Gate, facing Fu Yanqing's tooth soldiers and the soldiers of the Dianqian Division, he, a eunuch, climbed out of the Donghua Gate tremblingly.
Neither side paid attention to him, nor did they make a finishing blow.
Fu Yu was extremely smart, thinking that Luo Youdu would fulfill his promise and kill the Khitan dog thief, so he emboldened himself to warn Luo Youdu.
Luo Youdu nodded and said, "It's quite a character."
He then thought about what countermeasures Zhao Kuangyin would have in the face of this disadvantage.
He asked: "If you were Zhao Kuangyin, how would you play this game?"
Zhao Pu said without hesitation: "Although Zhao Kuangyin has occupied the imperial city now, his name is not justified, his words are inconsistent, and he is not far from defeat. Will he run away? If it were a subordinate, in this case, he would definitely run away.
Those who will lose will be destined to die if they stay."
Luo Youdu shook his head slightly and said: "So you are Zhao Pu, not Zhao Kuangyin. With Zhao Kuangyin's bravery and Zhao Kuangyin's character, as long as there is a chance, he will not give up easily. A person like him does not lack the courage to go all out and make a desperate move.
"
No matter what, Luo Youdu still recognized Zhao Kuangyin in his heart.
Luo Youdu said this, stood up suddenly, and said: "Being trapped in the palace will lead to death. If we defeat the many with less, we can defeat my unsuspecting victorious army, and then deal with Han Bushuai and survive in death. Zhao Kuangyin may not be in Bianjing..."
"Hu Yanzan, we are in urgent need. I will give you three horses and set off immediately to the military stronghold on the south bank of the Yellow River. Tell Cao Bin that Pan Mei said there has been a change in the capital. Quickly set up the stronghold and prepare for defense. In addition, let them guard against Murong Yan
Zhao, tell Han Lingkun to be careful of those around him."
They can go down the Bian River as fast as the current, but if they want to go upstream, they will definitely not be as fast as a horse.
Huyanzan knew the priorities and set off immediately.
Luo Youdu always thought that Wang Pu was the first to come because it was closer to his home.
Unexpectedly, the first person to arrive was Zhang Yongde. The prince-in-law, who was idle at home, seemed to have understood everything and rushed onto the building boat.
