Li Bangyan looked at the silent Yu Wenxu and couldn't help but sigh again.
In his previous opinion, this rebellion was a struggle between the two prime ministers, the late emperor and the two current majesties, as well as the six veteran thieves, Wang Fu Cai Jing and Tong Guan.
But in the end, it will be this guy who changes the situation in Kaifeng, and even changes the situation in the world.
Yu Wenxuzhong!
This guy's original name was Yuwen Huangzhong, but he was later given the name by the late emperor and changed it to the current name Yuwen Xuzhong. This guy has always been neither popular nor popular, after all, his background is a bit old.
Ancestors are from the Northern Zhou Dynasty royal family!
To put it bluntly, this status is more like a serious emperor than the current official Zhao family...
He was a Jinshi during the late emperor's period, and was transferred to the capital by the late emperor ten years ago. He was a living scholar and editor of the Academy of National History. In the second year, he was appointed as a tribute to Tongzhi and a scholar except Tongzhilangzhong.
To put it bluntly, this guy started his career as a confidant of the late emperor.
But what this guy did was a bit...
It was also at this time that Li Bangyan finally understood that this guy had made great efforts when His Majesty ascended the throne.
Three years ago, Tong Guan, Cai You and others decided to open the border to Yanyun. It was also at that time that Yu Wenxuzhong was transferred to the Xuanfu Envoy Department of Hebei, Hedong, and Shaanxi under Tong Guan's command.
It's just that when he first took up such an important position, he directly sold his family, Tong Guan.
At that time, the Song Dynasty was preparing to use the Sea Alliance to betray the Tanyuan Alliance, but Yu Wenxuzhongzhi went to the border and knew something was wrong.
In the words of Yu Wenxuzhong.
"The frontier army is completely rotten. The superiors are greedy, the generals are greedy for life and afraid of death, and the soldiers are lustful and gambling. They don't want to make progress but just want to save their lives. This kind of frontier army cannot fight at all.
The commander covered up the lack of finances, lack of training of soldiers, and shortage of equipment, and the entire frontier army became a place to make money.
At this time, Tan Yuan's alliance must not be betrayed, and Khitan must be used as a barrier to resist Jin and Xia. Tong Guan is not a useful general. If this person leads the army, big things will happen. "
When this memorial was first posted to the top, it immediately caused pain to countless people who read it.
The final result is very normal.
The Song Dynasty was defeated, and Tong Guan went astray to save face for the late emperor. Yu Wenxuzhong's petition was also hidden by Wang Fu. After everything was settled, he was transferred from the army and went to Tanzhou to be the magistrate.
It wasn't until a few days ago that he was transferred back.
It wasn't until not long ago that the Jin people divided their troops into two groups to attack the Song Dynasty for the first time, forcing the late emperor to issue an imperial edict, and Yu Wenxuzhong appeared again.
Compared with the explosions of Li Gang, Wu Min and others this time, Yu Wenxuzhong was relatively simple.
The purpose of Li Gang and Wu Min was to directly replace the emperor, while Yu Wenxuzhong took out the draft he had already written. The draft also included the release of palace maids, the cancellation of Yingfengsi, Xichengsuo, Liushang Bureau, and Dasheng Mansion. , ministers sending funds and more than ten things.
This sinner's edict...has been planned for a long time!
However, after that, Yu Wenxu only made one move to re-activate the way of cultivating masters, and there were no other actions.
This made many people despise Yu Wenxuzhong, and even forgot about him. It was not until Ma Zhong appeared that Li Bangyan, who knew the situation extremely well, finally figured it out.
Ma Zhong is indeed a young general in Kaifeng City, but this Ma Zhong is the person brought by Yu Wenxuzhong, in other words.
This is the person from Yu Wenxuzhong!
Now His Majesty, I am afraid that he does not only have the main battle group in his hands.
At this time, Kaifeng City was in complete chaos. After Ma Zhong arrived, he immediately took control of the situation here. At the same time, Zhong Shidao also responded immediately, yelling and Yao Pingzhong began to counterattack.
At the same time, the imperial students led by Chen Dong also joined in, cheering for their majesty and assisting the soldiers to control the situation, so that these soldiers, who were not serious or not, did not know what to do.
On the other side, Liu Qi, the gatekeeper, shouted to prevent the Kaifeng rebels from entering. At the same time, looking at the rebel soldiers who had already begun to harm Kaifeng before they succeeded, Liu Qi couldn't help but sneered.
When the other side cowered, he stretched out his big hand and asked the deputy general to fetch his precious eagle bow, then bent the bow and shot an arrow at the soldier who was taking advantage of the chaos to harm the people.
With just one arrow, a soldier who kicked in the door was killed on the spot.
The splash of blood caused a burst of screams and exclamations. It was because the people were frightened by the sudden appearance of arrows and blood.
But it was precisely because of this arrow that Liu Qi caused the soldiers on the opposite side to completely riot.
"Rush over, there are few of them, don't be afraid!"
At this time, Cai Jing, who was next to Song Huizong Zhao Ji, was even more decisive than Zhao Ji. He already knew that the situation had changed, no matter what Zhao Huan's ideas or methods were.
Cai Jing knew that they were still the biggest force in Kaifeng City. After all, Xu Bingzhe beside him was Wang Fu and Zhang Bangchang's confidant, and he and Wang Shiyong were in charge of Kaifeng.
Now that they have the army in hand, they can just rush over and force him to confess and abdicate.
Now that things have come to this point, there is no room for hesitation or retreat.
"All soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy!"
Cai Jing roared, and the other three of the six thieves, Liang Shicheng, Zhu Meng, and Li Yan, also immediately roared and charged towards Liu Qi's more than a thousand soldiers under the escort of Xu Bingzhe.
When Liu Qi saw this scene, he didn't feel any worry or fear. Instead, he smiled.
"Jingyuan Army, put up your shields!" Liu Qi roared, and rows of large shields stood directly in front of everyone, and spears rushed out from the gaps.
Liu Qi looks very handsome, fair and fair like a pretty boy, but this guy really startled many people when he spoke.
The voice was thick and loud, no more than a loud bell.
And the soldiers around him are not ordinary Kaifeng defenders, otherwise he would be so bold and dare to play so big.
The Jingyuan Army beside him was the elite of the Jingyuan Road, and it was also the elite of the army that his father Liu Zhongwu, the military commander of the Luchuan Army, personally selected for him before he came to Kaifeng.
His father, Liu Zhongwu, the governor of the Luchuan Army, was no ordinary person. The Liu family was also a general in the Song Dynasty, although it was not as good as Yang Huzhezhong's family.
But the Liu family is quite famous, and they have been serving in the border army all year round, so they have a great reputation.
His father Liu Zhongwu has always been known for his bravery and daring to fight. He has achieved this point by relying on the achievements accumulated in battles over the years.
The family almost fell due to Gao Yongnian's incident, but he was able to fight back step by step from the place of exile, which shows his ability.
Even the Taiwei Gao Qiu, who is now quite famous in the court, served under Liu Zhongwu.
How could such a person be inferior to the elite he carefully selected?
"Although they are all forbidden troops, this Kaifeng forbidden army is really nothing!"
Liu Qi couldn't help but sneered when he saw the Kaifeng Forbidden Army being blocked by the Jingyuan Army and unable to rush in.
Cai Jing, who was on the offensive side, couldn't help but feel angry when he saw this scene. He saw that the time was getting longer and longer, and the chaos in Kaifeng slowly subsided from the outbreak to unbearable anger.
"Ugh~"
Cai Jing was seen pulling out the long sword from his waist and beheading a retreating soldier on the spot, followed by a loud roar.
"Those who backslide, die!"
This voice was so shocking that Liu Qi's eyelids jumped when he saw it. He didn't know what this guy was thinking.
"At this time, he kills those who retreat without using large sums of money or inducements. Is this guy really not afraid of mutiny?"
Liu Qi, a newborn calf, was not afraid of tigers. Looking at Cai Jing's endless tricks, he couldn't help but sneered and gave him a ride.
"Spear, thrust!"
"Crossbowman, throw!"
"Pick up the shield, go, stand!"
After Liu Qi became a famous general, and also as a famous general in the future, there is no doubt about his commanding ability. After driving back the enemy with spear thrusts and crossbow throws, soldiers with shields raised step by step pressed forward.
Under this attack, the Kaifeng Forbidden Army was forced back several steps, and the entire team became a mess in the streets, which was very embarrassing.
"Ten thousand soldiers gather in such a street. Even if the streets of Kaifeng City are wide enough, you will still be crowded and unable to move.
Not only did he abandon his martial arts skills, but he didn't even have a formation or layout, he just rushed forward blindly. It was really stupid! "
Liu Qi continued to comment on Cai Jing's stupidity, and at the same time continued to direct his soldiers to attack continuously, constantly forcing the opponent back.
In this case, the opponent could only retreat again and again, and then one more life was added to Cai Jing's hands.
"No retreat, no retreat!"
Now not only Cai Jing is anxious, but also Liang Shicheng, Zhu Meng, and Li Yan. Like Cai Jing, they are one of the six thieves, and their only chance of survival lies with Zhao Ji.
If Zhao Ji fails, everything will be lost for them.
"Counterattack, don't retreat, counterattack!" Liang Shicheng also imitated Cai Jing's movements, drew out his long sword, and began to kill the soldiers, hoping to force the soldiers to turn around and continue attacking Liu Qi.
But he forgot that his reputation was far inferior to Cai Jing.
The soldiers were more or less afraid of Cai Jing, the prime minister of the court, who had always been in power, but Liang Shicheng was completely different.
"You bastard, you dare to attack me!"
An unknown captain grabbed Liang Shicheng's sword and glared at him.
"You are so brave, how dare you stop..." Liang Shicheng had never experienced anything like this before. He was about to curse angrily, but before he could finish his words, he was cut down to the ground by the captain with a knife, and his eyes were filled with horror. He watched as the man stabbed himself in the neck.
"The six thieves are innocent. The one we want to serve is Your Majesty!"
"Kill the six thieves for Your Majesty's sake!"
The roars directly announced the outbreak of the Kaifeng Forbidden Army, and at the same time, another large army came in outside the city.
"The Tong Xiang has ordered that the Dao Lord and Emperor rebel, and we will purge the court!"
