Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3397 Doubt

Li Xiaogong obviously intends to use his reputation to gather the garrisons from all over the Guanzhong, assist the prince to stabilize the situation, help protect the country, and use this meritorious service to restore the face lost in the Western Regions.

The Minister of Rites is Li Daozong, so naturally he will not leak the matter of Li Xiaogong's private return to Chang'an, so that Li Xiaogong can hide in the dark and maximize his reputation.And at that time, the censor's official impeached him, and the official document of the Ministry of officials endorsed him.

It's a good plan at the end...

Fang Jun pondered for a while, then nodded in agreement.

No one understands the importance of the Western Regions to the Han family better than him. No matter how turbulent Ren Guanzhong is, he can't let go and let the Arabs invade and occupy the Western Regions. The iron cavalry went straight to Yumen Pass, threatening the survival of the empire at all times.

And although Li Xiaogong was tossed and humiliated by the Guanlong clan in the Western Regions and lost all face, his strategy is still there. He secretly sits in Chang'an, and Li Jing is in the dark with Li Jing. It is enough to ensure the stability of the East Palace.

He said in a deep voice: "So, the king of the county should return to Guanzhong immediately and preside over the overall situation in secret. But please forgive me for talking too much, Gao Kan's half of the right guards can give enough trust, as long as Gao Kan and half of the right guards are there, anyone You can't set foot in the Xuanwu Gate!"

The reason why he reiterated his trust in Gao Kan and half of the Youtunwei was not because Fang Jun boasted, but because the situation in Guanzhong was critical now, and no one knew how many troops the thieves would gather to attack Chang'an City in the event of a mutiny.The Guanlongmen Clan has always had a tradition of raising private soldiers. There are countless servants and soldiers in each family. They organize and distribute weapons at critical moments, and they are an army with good combat effectiveness.

Therefore, the most reliable way to guard Chang'an is the sixth rate of the East Palace, but if you want to guard the large Chang'an City with such a small force, you must also guard against the rebels in the city, and the force must be stretched.

If there is no need to worry about the Xuanwu Gate, you can maximize the combat power of the Six Rates of the East Palace. Otherwise, if you divide your troops to guard the Xuanwu Gate, you can only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall, but in the end there will be loopholes everywhere.

As long as the right guards can defend the Xuanwu Gate, it will naturally give the East Palace a very lenient leeway for the formation of troops, after all, the Xuanwu Gate is too important.

Li Xiaogong nodded: "Erlang is a man who knows the soldiers. Since he trusts the generals under his command so much, I will not doubt it. In this way, the formation of troops in Chang'an City will be more comfortable, with the Six Commanders of the East Palace and the Right Guards defending the capital. , must be as solid as gold!"

Fang Jun is not as confident as Li Xiaogong.

The Guanlongmen faction has been entrenched in Guanzhong for hundreds of years, and their power has already penetrated into all aspects of the court, the military, and the market. Once they make up their minds to carry out a mutiny, they must be fully prepared. Act of?
As long as the Guanlongmen Clan does not move, once it is activated, it will inevitably be a thunderous force, which will put Donggong completely at a disadvantage in an instant.

Donggong intends to stabilize its position in this crisis, and even lay an unbreakable foundation from now on. The dangers it needs to face are bound to be like a landslide.

Of course, if this crisis can be passed smoothly, Li Chengqian's position as the crown prince will be as firm as a rock, and even His Majesty Li Er will not be able to change the crown easily.

This is the real beginning of Fang Jun changing this era with what he has learned.

*****
Liaodong.

Under the heavy snow all over the sky, the tide-like Tang army rushed towards Ping Rang City, and the endless Tang army was densely packed under the city wall, launching a frenzied attack.

On the city wall, the exhausted Goguryeo army burst out with surging fighting spirit, and firmly resisted the onslaught of the Tang army.Whenever a certain city wall was climbed to the top of the city by the Tang army, countless Goguryeo soldiers would rush forward bravely, slashing with knives, stabbing with spears, and even biting with their teeth, desperately killing the Tang army to the top of the city.

The invincible Datang Tiger, which is rampant all over the world, encountered unprecedented frenzied resistance at the head of Ping Rang City. The battle fell into a stalemate from the very beginning, and the two sides had almost no reservations. They fought frantically around the walls of Ping Rang City, standing majestically The city wall of the city seemed to become a huge flesh grinding disc, crushing the flesh and blood of the soldiers on both sides. Above and below the city, corpses piled up like mountains and blood flowed.

Yuangai Suwen made people spread the rumor that "the emperor of the Tang Dynasty fell from a horse and was seriously injured, and was shot by Yuan Nanjian" and did not shake the morale of the Tang army, but it greatly stimulated the morale of the Goguryeo people. The whole city was united, regardless of casualties To resist the Tang army's attack.

No one knows how long Pingrang City can last, or whether it can last. Only Yuan Gai Suwen sits in the Damolizhi Mansion in Pingrang City, looking forward to a miracle.

……

Tang Jun, outside the big tent of the Chinese Army.

Yu Chigong was furious, and whipped the horsewhip in his hand at the guards in front of the door, bleeding profusely from the faces of the guards, shouting and cursing: "Mother! I go in to see His Majesty, why did you stop me?" Your Majesty was wounded, and the whole army was worried. They all wanted to know what was going on with His Majesty, but you were blocking them here and not allowing anyone to enter. Harm, died and passed away?"

Behind him, Qiu Xiaozhong, Cheng Mingzhen and the others almost rushed up and knocked down the rascal and covered his mouth. Why can't they say such rebellious words?

However, there was always silence in the battle, but it made the hearts of several people sink slowly.

Ever since His Majesty fell off his horse and was injured that day, everyone has never seen His Majesty again, and all military orders were issued by British Duke Li Ji.

Could it be that Yu Chigong, the iron man, really got it right...

The imperial guards didn't dare to fight back, their heads and faces were bleeding profusely, but they stood firmly in front of the big tent, refusing to back down half a step.

"stop!"

There was a shout from behind, Li Ji got the news and rushed over with his own soldiers, seeing Yu Chigong whipping the guards and making rude remarks, he said angrily, "You are so disrespectful in front of your Majesty's tent, what do you want to do?"

When Yu Chigong saw Li Ji, he felt a little apprehensive, stopped his hands, looked at Li Ji and said, "It's not that the general is disrespectful, it's because I haven't seen His Majesty for a long time, and the general is puzzled! Lord Ying, these days the military orders are all up to you It turns out that we haven't seen His Majesty, so it's not because you deceived the saints, and your intentions are wrong?"

Cheng Mingzhen and others were startled, and hurried forward to stop him, Qiu Xiaozhong grabbed his arm and shouted: "Respect virtue, be careful with your words!"

This is nothing more than to scare the imperial guards, at most it is a crime of "disrespect", but what kind of person is Li Ji?These words are used in the army to scold the Zaifu of the court and the deputy commander of the army. It is not an exaggeration for them to chop off your head!
Li Ji was furious when he saw Yu Chigong whipping the imperial guards before, but now he calmed down after hearing Yuchi Gong's words.

He took two steps forward, stared at Yu Chigong coldly, and asked slowly: "Your Majesty is injured and needs to recuperate. As for the military affairs, I and Zhao Guogong will temporarily take over the military affairs. With your majesty's defense token as a letter, you, as the leader of the army General, you have no right to question! Do you still know where you are now, what kind of situation you are facing, and what is your identity? Or, your general ignores the law of the military and acts recklessly and recklessly, thinking that this commander dare not Execute military law and punish you with the canon?"

Qiu Xiaozhong hastily stepped forward and pleaded: "Don't be annoyed, British Lord, he has a vulgar temperament, and just now he speaks outrageously. He definitely did not intend to violate military discipline!"

Everyone in the government and the public feared Changsun Wuji very much, because Changsun Wuji had a gloomy personality, often stabbed in the back without showing his face, and was ruthless and ruthless.

But he is no less afraid of Li Ji than Changsun Wuji.

This person seems to be calm and calm all day long, with a calm personality and a peaceful personality, but once his Ni Lin is offended, he must be vicious and vicious.

Li Ji's face was cold, and he looked at Qiu Xiaozhong: "If you do it unintentionally, it's not a violation of military discipline? As a soldier, you must be able to memorize the military discipline of the Tang Dynasty. Let's listen to it, which one can escape if you do it unintentionally Punishment?"

Qiu Xiaozhong couldn't speak.

Military discipline is like a mountain, and right now it is the time of war, anyone who violates military discipline will be punished, who cares whether you intend to or not?

The emperor and I are also short in front of military discipline!
Li Ji turned his head and glanced at Yu Chigong, and said coldly: "Come here! Yu Chigong yelled at the imperial court, disobeyed the military order, disturbed the army's morale, and violated military discipline. He took off his armor and dragged him outside the gate. Use it as an example to others!"

"Here!"

The soldiers behind him immediately stepped forward, intending to take Yu Chigong down.

Yuchi Gongbao's eyes were wide-eyed, furious, he pushed the two soldiers close to him away, and shouted at Li Ji: "We are making such a noise here, and His Majesty in the tent is silent. I wonder if I doubt it? Xu Maogong, you have the ability to kill us with one blow, otherwise I will have to go in this tent!"
