【Chapter 270】 Will attack Chang'an, Gong Wei beauty
(PS: The first five thousand words chapter, please give me a monthly ticket!)
A day passes in a blink of an eye.
The next afternoon, on the top of the mountain to the east of Gejiapo.
Li Li led Dian Wuxia, Li Zhi, Tietuo and others to look high and watch the 50,000 Wuwei troops set out. After walking out of the deep mountains, they divided the troops into two divisions.
"Husband, the battle is imminent. Do you really don't plan to lead troops to attack Chang'an in person?" Dian Wuxia stood beside Li Li and asked softly.
Li Li looked calmly as his soldiers gradually moved away, and said softly: "This war is crucial to our army, so I will naturally still participate in the war. However, the commander of the army this time is not me, but Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe. I am just a general who leads troops. Wenhe has sent someone to notify me just now that when the fire in Chang'an City is soaring into the sky, I will lead the army to attack and attack Meiwu."
Dian Wuxia smiled and said softly: "My husband knows people and responsibilities. Wenhe's military advisor is indeed extraordinary, skilled in military affairs, and he can dispatch soldiers without any leakage. All the generals believe him. But I guess the reason why my husband asked Wenhe's military advisor to dispatch troops this time should not want to meet his uncle, right?"
"You are just a ghost elf, and you can't hide anything from you!" Li Li smiled and hugged Dian Wuxia into his arms, and said thoughtfully: "My uncle has 120,000 troops to attack Chang'an. With Wang Yun and a group of weak officials who are only good at writing, they can't defend the city. It is inevitable that the city will be broken.
After the city was broken, my uncle and the generals of Xiliang would definitely not let Wang Yun go. If I were also present, what should I do? Even though Wang Yun had many mistakes, he was Hongchang's adoptive father and his own uncle. Can I not save him when I die? But my uncle and the generals of Xiliang wished they could tear him to pieces. If I came forward to stop him, wouldn't he be on the target of public criticism and oppose the many Xiliang army? Therefore,,,,,,, I will not go to the muddy waters of Chang'an City. It is not human inside or outside. It is better to stay out of the matter and let the situation develop. Wang Yun's life and death have nothing to do with me!"
"What my husband said is very much." Dian Wuxia could understand Li Li's difficulties and said softly: "Hongchang has been talking about Wang Yun these days, and he also apologized to Dong Wan's sister for the fact that Dong Xiangguo was designed to be killed by Wang Yun. Unfortunately, Wanmei was in a low mood recently. She didn't say anything about Hongchang's apology, and she seemed to be still in a state of depression and was depressed."
Li Li sighed when he heard this, "Wan'er complained that I did not take back the body of Prime Minister Dong, and it was not simply a gap with Hongchang. Except for Wan'er, my father-in-law Cai Yong would nag about this matter whenever he had time these days and asked me to collect the body of Prime Minister Dong. They thought that collecting the body of Prime Minister Dong was just a simple task and could be done easily. This is the case. If I want to collect the body of Prime Minister, it is indeed very simple. But they thought this matter too shallowly and too simple! At this time, whoever collects the body of Prime Minister will mean that who is the best friend and the remnant of the traitor, and stands opposite to the people of the world. The prime minister is dead, and someone will do the matter of collecting the body sooner or later, why should I join in the fun?
Now after my uncle and his friends broke through Chang'an City, the first thing was to build a tomb for the prime minister and bury it with a glorious burial. In this way, the law did not blame the masses, and even if the people in the world were dissatisfied with the generals of Xiliang, they would not target a single person.
If you want to win the world, the people's hearts must not be lost and cannot leave an indelible reputation. Otherwise, even if there are hundreds of thousands of powerful soldiers, it will be difficult to make the people in the world surrender. If the people's hearts are unstable, the world will never have peace. Therefore, there are some things I cannot do, at least I cannot do them myself, otherwise I will give people a handle, and the people will be detrimental and the disaster will be endless."
"My husband actually has the ambition to compete for the world?" Dian Wuxia's eyes were shining and pressed against Li Li, and asked in a low voice in surprise.
Li Li's expression changed slightly, his eyes looked into the sky, and he whispered: "It's not that I, Li Li, want to seek the world, but that I will not seize the world and eliminate all the heroes. Sooner or later, we will be killed by other princes. Born in troubled times, either I will kill people or people will kill me. We have no way out at all, and we cannot avoid it, and we can only face difficulties and compete with the princes in the world."
Having said this, Li Li suddenly changed his mind and said with a gloomy face: "Wang Yun is so hateful! This old guy once promised me not to be an enemy of me, and even made a poisonous oath with me. If anyone violated his oath, he would not die well and be dismembered. Unexpectedly, he had just taken charge of the world's power, and turned against him in a blink of an eye. In the imperial edict that instigated the young emperor to issue a wanted killing, he actually ranked me Li Li on the top, before his uncle Li Jue and Guo Si.
This move doesn't seem to be a big deal on the surface, but in fact it hurts me badly. He treats me as the chief general of the Xiliang Army after the death of the Prime Minister, pushes me to the forefront, and also provokes the relationship between my uncle and my uncle and nephew. My uncle is suspicious by nature and has no time to take care of him for the time being, but it is hard to guarantee that he will not think randomly in the future. Once my uncle completely controls Chang'an, we may have a fight between us. Alas, Wang Yun is a very harmful guy!"
"Husband, do we really want to fight with our uncle?" Dian Wuxia asked anxiously with a nervous look.
Li Li pondered with a dim expression: "It is inevitable. We Xiliang people are martial arts and have always regarded the strong as respect. Who is the master and who is the subordinate between me and my uncle? We must fight with real swords and guns, and the winner is the main one and the loser is the follower. Moreover, the sooner this battle, the better. If it is delayed for a long time, the gap between each other will become larger and deeper, and it will be difficult to reconcile and will be incompatible. On the contrary, if the battle is quick and quick, it will be clear at the beginning of the gap, and then both sides will decide the victory or defeat as soon as possible. In this way, the barrier between each other can be eliminated as soon as possible, and then both sides can sit down and discuss major events calmly.
After all, my uncle and I are my nephews. There is a gap between the two sides and conflicts. There is no need to hide it in my heart and slowly ferment and brew it. There is no need to be upset and just start a battle. Afterwards, both sides knew their strength and position, and they would not speculate on themselves and suspicious of each other. The conflicts and barriers can be resolved in this way. My uncle's character and character determine that it is impossible for him and me to peacefully resolve the barriers and suspicions through discussion. We can only adopt the most helpless and extreme solution, but it is also the most direct and effective method."
After hearing Li Li's words, Dian Wuxia frowned and pondered for a long time. Then she sighed softly and said quietly: "Uncle and nephew are facing each other. The 200,000-300,000 troops are fighting on the battlefield, why should you do this? You men are really hard to understand. You are both a family, but you also have to fight to the death! Husband will do this by yourself. I don't want to participate in the war. I will live here with Xin'er and the others these days. After you have a result, I will return to the army to serve my husband."
Li Li nodded slightly to agree, then saw that there was smoke from beacon in the direction of Chang'an City, and said softly: "Let's go, the time is almost over, it's time for me to get off."

Night falls.
In the evening, the weather suddenly changed, the stars and the moon hid, and the sky was as dark as ink.
"Kill me. Capture Chang'an City, kill Wang Yun, and avenge the Prime Minister Dong! Kill——"
At the east gate of Chang'an City, Li Jue, Guo Si and others led a 120,000 army to attack the city. The generals shouted loudly to the soldiers to attack the city, while Li Jue and Guo Si were even leading the soldiers, shouting loudly to attack the city. While personally leading infantry to hit the city gate.
"Swoosh swish swish!"
"Boom boom boom!"
"ah---"
Suddenly, thousands of soldiers guarding the city on the top of the city raised their bows and the arrows fell rapidly like rain. Hundreds of catapults in the Xiliang army under the city threw fireballs continuously, causing the city to be filled with smoke. Fires caught everywhere. Tens of thousands of Xiliang soldiers carried the city ladders and pushed the well railings. They were holding arrows, rolling wood and oil pans of smelly water, climbing up the city without fear of death. As the soldiers continued to scream and fell to the city, many Xiliang soldiers went to force the city to climb. Soon after, warriors climbed to the city and were stabbed to death by the defenders.
The siege battle entered a white-hot stage from the beginning. More than 100,000 Xiliang troops rushed up, and the moat was filled in an instant. Then, the city walls that were several miles long were surrounded and were covered with Xiliang soldiers attacking the city. There were only a few thousand defenders on the top of the city. Seeing the densely packed under the city, more than 100,000 Xiliang troops at a glance, many defenders were afraid before fighting, and their hearts were cold, and they shrank, and they did not dare to give up. In addition, there were no effective generals among the defenders to guard the city, and only more than ten school captains and small school commanded the battle in front of the battle, which made the soldiers of the defenders vary in order and were extremely chaotic.
As one goes up and the other goes down, the Xiliang army became more and more brave and fierce. A quarter of the siege war started, the brave Xiliang soldiers climbed to the top of the city, and then it became even more out of control. More and more Xiliang soldiers climbed to the top of the city, making it more and more difficult to defend the city. Within half an hour of siege, although many soldiers of the Xiliang army were killed and injured, the defenders also suffered many casualties, and the situation was in danger.
The Grand Tutor's Mansion was brightly lit, and many entourages and maids were panicked and frightened.
In the study, Chen Gong hurriedly pushed the door open and ran to Wang Yun without reporting.
"Tai Shi, why do you still have the heart to read? Li Jue and Guo Si led a 120,000 army to attack the city overnight. Now the East City is in danger and may break the city at any time. Outside the West City and the North City, tens of thousands of Wuwei troops attacked the city forcibly. They only took half an hour to capture the Xicheng Gate. Now the Wuwei army has entered the city!"
"What, the Wuwei Army has entered the city?" Wang Yun suddenly stood up, grabbed Chen Gong's clothes on his chest, and shouted in panic.
Chen Gong said anxiously: "Yes. The Wuwei army entered the city from the tunnel that had been dug long ago, and then broke through the Xicheng Gate. They are now rushing to the palace. The situation is urgent, so it is urgent. Please make a decision quickly!"
"Oh, I regret not listening to my brother's words. I will lose all the mistakes when I go wrong!" Wang Yun lamented in regret, and then said anxiously: "Hurry up, go to Meiwu Chuanlingfeng to come to rescue first. I immediately go to the palace to protect His Majesty and the Queen Mother, close the palace gate and wait for help!"
"Taishi, the Wuwei army has entered the city at this time, and Chang'an City cannot be defended. The Taishi is trapped in the inner city of the palace and it is afraid that it will be difficult for His Majesty to protect His Majesty and the Queen Mother to Meiwu to avoid the edge of the situation. Meiwu is extremely strong, and it is even better than Chang'an City. Moreover, there is sufficient food and grass there, and the army of Wenhou garrison, so he will be able to protect His Majesty and the Queen Mother!" Chen Gong advised urgently.
"No, absolutely not!" Wang Yun shook his head without thinking and rejected Chen Gong's words, and said stubbornly: "These words of Gongtai are not bad. The Xiliang army is brave and good at fighting. Once Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager escape from the city and enter the wilderness, how can they escape the pursuit of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry? If you are not careful, Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager will die under the arrows of the chaos. Then our crimes are of great importance and will become a sinner forever. No, this move must not be done! Gongtai should not say too much, and leave the city and order Lu Bu to lead his army to protect him. Go quickly!"
"This,,,,,,,,, I received the order!" Chen Gong saw that Wang Yun was unable to persuade him. After he hesitating for a moment, he bowed and then quickly left the study.
Chen Gong went out with his front feet, and Wang Yun followed closely with his long sword tied with his waist. He called the housekeeper Lao Cai to gather all the entourages and soldiers in the mansion, and hurried to the palace.

Longxiang Li Mansion Lobby.
"Reported to the military advisor, just now, the whistle and cavalry came to report that a group of more than ten people rode out of the city on fast horses, bypassed the Xiliang army under General Li Jue's command, and headed straight for Meiwu."
In the lobby, Jia Xu sat upright at the main seat, and under the hall were generals such as Huan Fei, Pang De, Tarus and Yin Zi. At this time, the person who was reporting on the military situation was the Tie Zi who temporarily served as Jia Xu's personal guard. Outside the lobby, the originally empty Longxiang Li Mansion was already crowded, and tens of thousands of Wuwei soldiers gathered.
Hearing Tie Yu's reward, Jia Xu raised his eyebrows and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Then he gently stroked his beard and smiled indifferently: "Okay, it seems that Wang Yun knew that Chang'an City could not be defended, so he sent someone to Meiwu to ask Lu Bu to lead his army to help. He walked through the south gate. It seems that the method of surrounding the three ques and ones that I had previously told General Li Jue had indeed worked. Commander Huan Fei, you will lead the Hu Xiao Camp to attack from the south gate of the palace later. Capture the emperor and the queen mother!"
"Okay, Huan has been impatient for a long time, so he will immediately lead his army into the palace!" Huan Fei was immediately happy when he heard this, stood up and said loudly.
"No, Commander Huan Fei is calm. Please sit down for the time being." Jia Xu hurriedly persuaded Huan Fei, who was impatient, and then turned his head to ask Ma Chao and asked: "Meng Qi, Li Jue, how long will it take for Guo Si's army to capture the East Gate?"
"The battle between the East Gate is fierce, and the Xiliang army has already climbed to the top of the city. In another half an hour, the Xiliang army will enter the city." Ma Chao continued.
"Half an hour?" Jia Xu pondered, then frowned and said in a deep voice: "No, half an hour is not enough. Before Lu Bu sent troops, the battle in Chang'an City will be over. Then the lord will go to great trouble to lead the army to attack Meiwu. Meng Qi, you immediately lead hundreds of soldiers to replace the armor of Lu Bu's army, go to the East City for a walk, and send people to the gate of the houses of various wealthy families to convene them to guard the city. Spread more rumors and make them think that after the Xiliang army breaks the city, they will confiscate their families and exterminate their clans, so they will do their best to defend the city. However, after you complete the task, you must not stay here quickly and return here quickly, and use it with other benefits!"
"No, the general will accept the order." Ma Chao responded immediately and walked out of the lobby quickly.
"Military advisor, you ask Meng Qi to persuade the powerful and powerful gentry to send entourages to defend the city. Wouldn't this cause trouble for General Li Jue and the others? Is this matter also what the lord agreed to?" Huan Fei looked at Ma Chao and asked Jia Xu with a look of surprise.
As soon as this was said, Pang De, Yin Zi and other generals in the hall looked at Jia Xu, waiting for his reasonable explanation. After all, the generals knew that their lord Li Li had always been respectful to his uncle Li Jie, but Jia Xu deliberately made trouble for Li Jie's army this time and deliberately delayed the time when the Xiliang army broke through the city. If the lord Li Li agreed, that would be fine; if Jia Xu made his own decision, the generals in the hall would not agree.
Jia Xu squinted his eyes and looked at the expressions of the generals without any trace, then smiled and said, "Before going to the battle, the lord has granted me the right to be arbitrary on the spot, so you don't have to worry. If the lord asks for guilt afterwards, it will be my own responsibility for me, Jia Xu, and I will never shirk responsibility, and I will not implicate all the generals! What do you think?"
"We have no objection, everything depends on the order of the military advisor!" Huan Fei, Pang De and others looked at each other, and then responded in unison.
"Okay!" Jia Xu cheered, then stood up and ordered with a solemn expression: "Huan Fei obeyed the order and immediately led the army and lurked at the southern gate of the palace. Half an hour later, the emperor and the queen mother were captured alive. Then, no hesitation should be made, and the troops should be withdrawn immediately! Other generals immediately occupy Xicheng and Beicheng, control the city gate, and conquer the surrendered defenders! All the captured surrendered soldiers were escorted to the Ximen. Each battalion must defend Xicheng and Beicheng. Without the order of the lord general, the garrison shall not be handed over to the Xiliang army privately!"
"No, we will accept the order!" The generals from the hall replied in unison.
Then the generals strode away one after another, only Huan Fei stayed at the end and did not leave immediately.
"What else does Commander Huan Fei not understand?" Jia Xu asked softly in surprise.
Huan Fei turned his head and looked at the generals who had left, strode to Jia Xu, and whispered: "The military advisor is indeed as wise as a torch, and he can guess it. I think the military advisor also knew that Huan was from the Western Regions. He heard that there were many beauties in the palace since he was a child and had long admired him. This time, Huan finally had the opportunity to enter the palace. Except for the little emperor and the queen mother, he naturally could not return empty-handed. Hehehe!"
Although Huan Fei did not express his original intention directly, how could Jia Xu not know what he was thinking?
"Hahaha!" In an instant, Jia Xu smiled and said, "It turns out that Commander Huan Fei wanted several concubines to be wives and concubines. As far as I know, you have not married yet and have no concubines. And I also heard that you are not a woman, so why did you suddenly mention this matter?"
"Military advisor, Huan is indeed not a woman, but she still wants to marry and have children. Besides, I have a few brothers who are still bachelors. This time, the opportunity to enter the palace is rare, so Huan wants to bring them a few beautiful concubines, which is worthy of the brothers. Is this woman? Naturally, the women in the palace will not be wrong, they must be very beautiful. Military advisor, do you think?" Huan Fei was also open-minded, without hiding it, and directly expressed his thoughts.
After hearing this, Jia Xu nodded with thought and said, "This matter is not a big deal, but I really can't make this decision and dare not speak nonsense. This way, if Commander Huan Fei sees a woman he likes, you can take her out of the palace, but you must ask your lord for instructions afterwards. After you get your lord's approval, those women will naturally belong to you. Remember, although the royal family is now in decline, this matter should not be made public, and you must not ask your lord for advice. Without your lord's permission, you must not hide the palace maids and concubines privately, otherwise the consequences will be serious."
"Okay, thank you for your guidance from the military advisor. Huan knows what to do. Goodbye, I will lead the army to set off now." Huan Fei grinned, bowed his hand, and then left with great strides.
Jia Xu watched Huan Fei leave and said to himself: "There are indeed many beauties in the palace, and Huan Fei is very tasteful. However, those beauties are not something that everyone can get. I hope you can get the approval of your lord, otherwise you will be happy." (To be continued)
