Prison Dragon

It would take at least ten days and half a month to rush from the middle of Shu to the capital.Yang You had already asked Yang Yuchun to take the people to Lidu at full speed, and he stayed behind to watch the supply and food.

"Go north from Chengdu, exit Jianmen Pass, pass through Hanzhong, and attack the Xuanjia Army from behind." This was Yang You's order to Yang Yuchun. He had already arrived in Tianshui, and he wrote to Yang You again for instructions.

After Tianshui, they went north again, and they would reach Longzhou controlled by Yang Shi in a day or two, and they were about to fight Yang Shi.Although Yang You has the emperor's secret decree, but it is not clear, after all, these brothers seem to be only Yang Ti and Yang Shi falling out.If he hit Yang Shi casually first, if he brings trouble and bad reputation to Yang You, the gain will outweigh the loss.

Just as he was writing a letter, the first spies reported that they had received news from Longzhou City that Yang Shi, king of Guangwu, had ascended the throne and changed his name to Longxing.

"What should I do?" Liao Xiang was a little flustered when he heard the news. Before, everyone was king, and Yang Ti was just a prince. Speaking of which, they were all about the same status, and they could compete if they wanted to.But once someone is the emperor, it has something to do with treason. Although Yang You is behind him, Liao Xiang is also a little worried, "Are we really going to fight?"

Yang Yuchun glanced at him, "Fight, why not fight? Isn't that why we came out of Jiannan? Why weren't you afraid of officials when you were a bandit, but now you are afraid of a false emperor?"

He has been studying with Yang You for the past few years, and his accent is also close to Yang You's. He can speak pure and elegant language, and he can't hear the accent of Hebei Prefecture.

Pseudo-emperor, Liao Xiang thought about it for the same reason. Looking at the appearance of the second prince, Yang Ti’s crown prince might have something in it. Since no one is a prince and the emperor is still alive, what is Guangwu King if he is not a false emperor? ?

With so many sons of the emperor, who is lower than whom?

He didn't know the benefits of being an officer until he became an officer and soldier. Although he didn't do what he wanted like a bandit, he was happy to be upright, and he was still a little uncomfortable when he was suddenly asked to oppose the emperor.

Liao Xiang figured it out and went out to patrol the camp.

Yang Yuchun thought about it, and wrote Liao Xiang's hesitation into the letter to Yang You.

Yang You folded the letter and said with a smile: "When Liao Xiang is an official, he thinks he is getting less and less courageous."

Both Liu Wu and Zhuo Xinhong followed him to lead troops. After all, Zhuo Xinhong wanted to get closer to Yang You. Zhuo Xinhong said first, "I wonder what General Yang's letter said?"

Yang You had expected this news a long time ago, "The fourth brother has ascended the throne."

"It's just as the prince thinks, the crown prince can't keep Lidu." Liu Wu said.

"It doesn't matter," Yang You said, "We won't be the only ones who make a move. I'm afraid the fourth brother will not be able to sit securely on the throne."

Yang You wrote the letter with one purpose, to let Yang Yuchun type quickly.

Yang Shi's Xuanjia Army was fighting the Turks, Qi's biggest rival. The Turkic people were skilled in archery and horses, and men, women, and children were very sturdy. Facing such an army, the Xuanjia Army was able to win consecutive victories, which is enough to show their strength.

Although Yang You fought many battles, they were all fighting bandits and bandits. Compared with the Turkic people, his combat effectiveness was still a bit weaker.

He was unwilling to confront the Xuanjia army, so he could only fight more while Yang Shi didn't react.

However, on the fifth day, Yang Yuchun went to the five cities of Longzhou, Xingyang, Jingyuan, Nanshan, and Wushan. Yang You's army was like a sharp knife, cutting off Yang Shi's forces extending from the northwest.

Yang Yuchun fought in the southwest, and the most outstanding thing was that he was fast and ruthless. His opponents were bandits and ruthless people, who were more familiar with the terrain than his own army. If he didn't react quickly, he would run away, and no one could be found.He is even better at attacking cities, not to mention the high walls and deep pools of the cities in Gyeonggi Province, even the many dangerous passes in the southwest, Yang Yuchun did not see worry.

That's why Yang You let him play forward.After so many years, he can be regarded as seeing that Yang Yuchun eats this bowl of food at all, he is ruthless and obedient, and he has not seen a loss in ten years of fighting.

Because they attacked the city too fast, Yang Shi didn't have time to organize a counterattack. The five cities became the horns of each other and echoed each other. Yang You pulled the remaining more than [-] people here. Yang Shi completely lost the chance to take it back. .

What is confusing is that Yang You never moved after taking down the five cities. He just stayed in the city and did not go south to continue to attack Lidu.

In fact, cutting off the supply line in the northwest does not worry Yang Shi. Now that he has occupied the Weizhou Plain, he can fully support the army with local supplies. If the entire army attacked at the same time, Yang You would be attacked from both sides.

Now it is Di Fei in the east that makes Yang Shi angry.

Di Fei galloped all the way south, and soon arrived in Huayin, which was very close to the capital.

"Your Majesty," Yang Shi's minister said tremblingly, "General Di Qiulu handed over the order."

Di Fei hadn't made it clear what he meant, and they just thought he was still working for the court and continued to call him the general begging for captives.

"The handwritten order? I haven't issued the order yet, where did Di Fei get the handwritten order?" Yang Shi asked with a dark face.

The ministers looked at each other, and finally someone couldn't bear the pressure and submitted the letter.

The manuscript was written in the emperor's tone. Of course, the emperor Yang Shi's father, Yang Ting, saw that the gorgeous rhetoric was the edict drawn up by his second brother.

However, no matter how many words are piled up, there is only one main point, that is, the emperor is now in the hands of Di Fei. He said that the second prince and the fourth prince are unreliable. After ordering Di Fei to defeat Yang Shi, he discussed with the old ministers a plan to establish a reserve.He also advised Yang Shi to surrender to Di Fei immediately if he still recognized some of the rituals of a monarch and his ministers.

Yang Shi guessed at a glance that Yang Ti must have been caught by Di Fei instead of running out after leaving the capital.

He didn't even know how to escape, and he got a handle in Di Fei's hands, making him restrained by Di Fei. Yang Shi secretly scolded Yang Ti a few times.

Although he wants to raise troops regardless of his reputation, it doesn't mean that he doesn't want a good reputation. If he wants to rule the world stably, a good reputation is too important.He dared to disobey the orders of Yang Ti and Lin Mu because they were ministers. He could say that there was something wrong with Yang Ti's position as crown prince, or that the excuses of these people conflicted with the emperor's will, so he didn't carry it out. .

However, once the emperor was moved out, Yang Shi had to obey immediately.

It can't be said that Yang Ting's position is also problematic, right?If even Yang Ting has problems, then Yang Shi himself is not qualified to fight for the emperor.

"Which side are you going to fight?"

Yang You and Yang Shi raised questions at the same time.

"How does the lord think that King Guangwu will send troops?" Liu Wu still had to look at Yang You's opinion first, as he had no actual control over this army.

Yang You shook his head and declined, looked at the generals and said, "I don't know, everyone knows that I don't know how to use troops, so I can't guess where Fourth Brother is going to fight?"

"No." Liu Wu said, "Although the prince doesn't understand the art of war, he understands King Guangwu."

Indeed, in terms of blood, he is the closest person to King Guangwu here, and he grew up with him.

Yang You tried to understand the problem from Yang Shi's point of view, "Fourth Brother lived a smooth life and made outstanding military achievements at a young age. However, this also created a shortcoming in him. He looks down on others, and the weaker he is, the more he looks down on them. The easier it is to ignore. If we shrink back, he probably won't attack us first."

"Isn't 20 strong?" Yang Yuchun looked down on Yang Shi a bit.

Yang You took the initiative to explain, "It's not as simple as the number of people. Most of the Xuanjia Army are cavalry, and we are basically infantry, so we have no advantage in battle. Besides, it's not that we are too weak, but that in comparison, we have the emperor Di The general is even more threatening. To put it bluntly, we want to cut off the connection between the Xuanjia army. From another perspective, we are also surrounded by the Xuanjia army, but General Di is more prominent."

Liu Wudao: "Will he let the Northwest army attack us, and then deal with Di Fei by himself?"

"No," Yang You looked at the map, "If the northwest attacks us, we will attack the capital from the west. It is impossible for him to let himself fall into the situation of fighting on two fronts."

In fact, Yang Shi thought the same way. Although the younger brother that the mysterious man said made him very concerned, he just asked the officials to search for the whereabouts of Yang Xiu and Yang Lun, and then sent people to keep an eye on Yang You.

Yang Xiu and Yang Lun have not been found yet, and Yang You stands still.

He knew Yang You was indecisive and he was afraid that Liu Wu and his subordinates were instigated to send out troops this time, but he dared not fight when he sent out the troops, he was timid and timid, so it was not a good idea.

That being the case, he can deal with Di Fei first.

Di Fei holding the emperor really made him sick, as long as Yang Ting didn't solve it for a day, he would not be able to sit firmly on the throne.

Of course, Yang You could not be allowed to reap the benefits of being a fisherman. He recruited a new army and secretly Chen Bing was at the place where he was confronting Yang You.

Xia Siyue Yichou, the Xuanjia Army and General Di Fei fought in Weinan, defeating the captives.

When the news came, Yang You was also taken aback. He thought that both of them were generals of the cavalry, and they would be able to draw more or less. Who knew that Di Fei was beaten to the bum by Yang Shi, and even the carriages of the emperor and prince who accompanied him were snatched away. .

"I thought Di Fei could exhaust the fourth brother." Yang You was also a little distressed, "Who knew it would be this result."

Zhuo Xinhong comforted him: "King Guangwu has been fighting for many years, and he is young and strong. Although Di Fei is good, Zeng Nai He Lian is quite old."

Yang Shi is too good at fighting, Turkic, Lidu, Di Fei... so many difficult and even daunting opponents, he can fight as soon as he says, which makes Yang You also start to hesitate, but they have come to this point.

He was mentally prepared before sending out troops. This was the only chance, and if he missed it, he would never have the chance to be the emperor. Similarly, if he made a wrong move here, there would be no way out.

There is only a dead end, and we can only bite the bullet and rush forward.

Surprisingly, Yang Shiming robbed Yu Jia, but did not release any news, but immediately beheaded Yang Ti, and copied the three clans of the Lin family, but there was no other news.

On the contrary, Di Fei, who was retreating, was still sending out a letter to scold him, saying that he killed the prince after he robbed him. How to kill father.

Yang You also knew that it was Yang Shi who killed Yang Ti, and Di Fei pretended to condolences, saying that he was the crown prince, adding another piece of evidence to Yang Shi. If Yang Ti was still alive, Di Fei would also have to worry about how to make him Give way to Yang Ren.

But what happened to the emperor?
