Xie Chao was very excited.
Meng Zan also had no objection.
Of course, the main reason is that time waits for no one.
Now, all the feudal lords of Longyan are staring at Jinghua!
Their Youzhou army arrived first!
So there’s a chance you’ll come out on top!
Talk from the heart.
Given the current situation in Longyan and Jinghua, which feudal king would not want to enter the city when faced with such a situation? Don’t you want to follow Dong Zhuo’s example and go in and make a big splash?
Especially those who already have objections to Liu Zheng and are not very optimistic about the constitutional monarchy.
Sometimes, history is like this, if they hesitate one step, they will lose the whole world.
In the past few days, the Qinwang troops of each vassal king are already on the road.
Especially I heard that although King Yong of Hanzhong and Jinzhou of Jinzhou had already sent most of their troops to support the northwest battle, they still each sent out 50,000 troops and rushed to Beijing.
so.
Two questions were before them.
First, they don’t want to fight. Fighting is a real rebellion.
Second, in terms of time, they are not allowed to hesitate.
In addition, the Tiger Talisman is already in Xie Chao's hands, and Zhao Yan, the guard of Jinghua, has also been tied up by Yu Qian. The generals who defended the city were all controlled by Xie Chao, and the 200,000 troops outside the city were also on guard. If Yu Qian had bad intentions, he could be wiped out in an instant!
Logically speaking, they have the upper hand.
For a while.
Xie Chao was silent.
Naturally, his heart was in turmoil.
Now, what was before him.
On the one hand, the official fortune is prosperous, and the person becomes a dragon or a phoenix. One side is shattered to pieces. As long as Yu Qian's brain is not flooded, he should know how to choose.
And even if you take ten thousand steps back, even if Yu Qian really cheats and captures Xie Chao, it doesn't matter. After all, Zhao Di already has a heir apparent, and it makes no sense to use this as a threat.
A man who can lead an army of 20,000 to resist a Mongolian army of 100,000 cannot even think of this.
Moreover……
Which of these Long Yan literati didn’t grow up imitating some thick and black school?
to be honest……
They are all useless!
I have always heard that Long Yan's soldiers regard death as death.
I have never heard of this scholar who loves his country to death.
"Your Highness, yes."
Meng Zan nodded and encouraged him again.
With Meng Zan's nod, Xie Chao felt more at ease.
"Okay, then, I will only bring a hundred personal guards into the city, and leave the military advisor and army to you."
Xie Chao finally made his decision.
"Your Highness, please rest assured."
Meng Zan responded quickly.
Soon, Xie Chao ordered a hundred elite soldiers and generals. These people were naturally fully armed, and they all used Long Yan's most advanced weapons and equipment!
During this time, Long Yan set off a trend of special forces.
These one hundred people are Xie Chao's special forces!
"Set off!"
Xie Chao was high-spirited and waved his hand.
Seeing that Beijing is right in front of him, about to come into his hands, and the great cause is accomplished, no one's heart will be peaceful.
Xie Chao, one hundred guards.
In this way, he followed Yu Qian and slowly headed towards Jinghua City.
Although he was worried, he was more excited. After entering Beijing today, he became the actual master of Beijing City. If he controlled the emperor and the parliament, he would be the only one to control Long Yan!
Recruit and train troops, control the Northeast, and then unite Mongolia and Tsarist Russia. The Qingzhou Army and the Liangzhou Army can be reduced to powder in a matter of seconds!
Xie Chao had a dream of ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor.
But at this time, the ambushes on the walls of Jinghua City and the streets were already aiming their bows and arrows at him.
They held their breath, not daring to breathe out.
Because everyone knows that you only have one chance!
Zhao Hui's eyes were also staring at Xie Chao, not daring to blink.
Zhao Yan is already dying...
They have paid so much for Jinghua, and they have paid so much for Long Yan...
Just waiting for their final blow.
This blow must be foolproof!
Come over little by little.
hold on……
hold on……
Zhao Hui calculated the distance.
Xie Chao and Yu Qian were chatting and laughing along the way. The latter was telling him about the internal situation in Beijing, while the former was dreaming of his own dream of being emperor and promising Yu Qian a high official and generous salary.
"Do it!"
After everyone entered the city, Yu Qian gave the order directly!
Suddenly, hundreds of arrows were fired at Xie Chao's guards. Most of the guards were killed or injured in an instant. At this time, the ambush troops on both sides came to cover up and restrained Xie Chao almost instantly.
arrive……
It’s finally here!
Zhao Hui's eyes finally blinked.
"Do it!"
He gave the order.
Suddenly, thousands of arrows came overwhelmingly.
"ah!"
One hundred guards did not react at all, and many died tragically on the spot.
And those people who were ambushing at the city gate rushed over immediately.
Zhao Hui led the team and quickly surrounded Xie Chao in the middle.
At this moment, Xie Chao's expression changed drastically and he shouted angrily: "Yu Qian, what do you want to do!"
"Your Highness, please go up to the city tower and order your Youzhou army to withdraw to Zhao. In this way, I, Yu Qian, will keep you safe. Otherwise, the city will be destroyed and people will die. I, Yu Qian, do not mind going to hell with Your Highness."
Yu Qian slowly retreated outside the encirclement, speaking neither humble nor arrogantly.
"You fool me!"
Xie Chao's eyes were completely split, and Yu Qian actually tricked him!
However……
He also knew how many bows and arrows were pointing at him at the same time. As long as he moves, it is very likely that thousands of swords will pierce him!
but……
It was difficult for him to give orders to the army behind him.
"Your Highness, please come upstairs!"
Yu Qian bowed.
"Yu Qian, are you confused? If I come to the city and take power, you can be the minister of the Ministry of War, or even join the cabinet to worship the prime minister! What good will it do to you to take me down? You have been a minor official for more than ten years, which shows that you have no ability. Background, even if you win the battle to defend the capital and achieve great military exploits, it will be difficult for you to be accepted by the court and you will only be promoted to the third rank of minister!"
Xie Chao said angrily.
"Besides, you don't really think that everything will be fine if you control me, right? If I don't send a message to the outside world within half an hour, the 200,000 troops outside the city will immediately attack the city. Within a moment, our Youzhou army will Then we can break into the city, and then I will make all of you pay the price for your stupid behavior now!"
Xie Chao was not intimidating everyone, everyone knew it in their hearts, so when they heard this, some soldiers looked at each other with some fear.
They are just ordinary soldiers. Without Yu Qian's awareness, they don't want to die.
The Jinghua garrison was shaken. Seeing this, Xie Chao smiled.
"Jinghua garrison officers, I know that you were coerced by this thief to do such stupid things. Put down your weapons and Paul will not die. Otherwise, when the army enters the city, you will be unable to survive or die. !”
"Boldly rebel! How dare he be so arrogant when he falls into our hands? Come here and escort him to the tower!"
Zhao Hui said angrily.
He will never allow his military morale to waver.
Zhao Hui still has some prestige among the defenders. With this order, many soldiers stepped forward.
"Bold! Look what this is!"
Xie Chao's expression changed drastically and he raised the tiger talisman in his hand.
Tiger Talisman!
To the ancient soldiers, the Tiger Talisman was the greatest order!
This time.
The atmosphere at the scene changed again, and none of the soldiers dared to step forward.
"Soldiers, take down the traitor Yu Qian for me, so that you can discuss your merits and appreciate him alone!"
Xie Chao got excited and started to make promises.
The soldiers actually hesitated...
After all, they are at an absolute disadvantage now, and the city will definitely not be able to be defended. If they really attack Xie Chao, they will definitely die when the city is breached.
and……
The tiger talisman is still in Xie Chao's hand.
They obey the Tiger Talisman, that's right.
"What are you doing! Why don't you do it yet!"
Yu Qian's expression changed and he urged.
It was obvious that he had not expected the changes in these people's emotions.
"Hahaha, Mr. Yu, it seems that your soldiers don't listen to you. You said, you worked so hard for Liu Zheng. What is your purpose? Just to be killed by me at this moment, and then become a history book There is not even a trace of dust on the book? You have been given the opportunity to be famous throughout the ages, but it’s a pity that you didn’t seize it.”
Xie Chao said proudly.
"Hmph, surrendering to a traitor like you will only make you infamy for eternity!"
Yu Qian said disdainfully.
"Master Yu, this is your fault. You said that you are a traitor when you open your mouth and you are a traitor when you shut up. Who is the traitor? I, the Youzhou Army, are just here to serve the king. We are dedicated to serving the country, but you, But you tricked us in, killed us, and treated a vassal king so despicably and viciously, Mr. Yu, you are truly treasonous!"
"Come here, capture this traitor who is causing trouble!"
Xie Chaodao said loudly.
Zhao Hui was also anxious.
It was about to succeed, but these soldiers hesitated one by one?
But this is normal.
Human nature is what it is...
Jinghua has been in a high-pressure state for so long, and no one can guarantee that everyone's psychology is stable.
It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
At this moment, Xie Chao has absolute strength and has the Tiger Talisman. There is no reason for them to disobey orders. Also, whether Xie Chao rebels or not, it actually has little to do with them.
Once the Mongolian army retreats, they will be the heroes who protect their country. Xie Chao is also from Longyan, and he belongs to the Longyan royal family. When he goes to Beijing, he is just a different person as the emperor. Following Xie Chao's orders, he can use his nation to To survive as a hero, if you don't obey his orders, you will be labeled as a "rebel" and killed.
For them, this is no choice at all.
certainly……
The most important thing is that Yu Qian is a scholar.
In this era, soldiers and civilians despise each other.
Even though Yu Qian led them to retreat from the Mongolian army, they still dissatisfied with Yu Qian's leadership.
Between hesitations.
The soldiers raised their knives and were about to attack Yu Qian.
Yu Qian's expression changed drastically. What he was most worried about had happened.
"Get him alone!"
Xie Chao laughed.
The situation is reversed again.
Yu Qian narrowed his eyes slightly.
But there are still a few guards who are desperately protecting him at this time.
He can't stand without breaking. At this time, he is about to burn the boat.
"Thieves are harming the country. Soldiers, the building is about to collapse. Don't hesitate!"
Yu Qian shouted, snatching the knife from the hands of the soldiers around him without hesitation, and struck the smug Xie Chao with one strike.
"you……"
Xie Chao's expression changed. He never expected that such a weak scholar would take action. He was unprepared and was struck in the face by Yu Qian with a knife.
He thought of many situations and many countermeasures...
But I never thought that I would die in the hands of this weak scholar!
However……
Yu Qian's movements were too fast.
No one reacted, let alone Xie Chao, the person involved?
Blood bursts out.
Xie Chao died on the spot.
The whole place was in an uproar!
Many people were frightened.
"Master Yu, what are you doing! If you kill him, none of us will survive!"
The soldiers were all shocked. Yu Qian wanted to use them as a backing before he died!
"Soldiers, you are loyal to your emperor, do you really want to hand over Jinghua City to the rebels?" Yu Qian asked solemnly.
"But... King Zhao did not rebel."
"Not rebelling? Two hundred thousand troops with siege engines and ladders. What do you think he wants to do?"
Yu Qian asked angrily.
"this……"
The soldiers hesitated and didn't know what to say. Indeed, Xie Chao was Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone on the road knew it. They were just trying to comfort themselves.
Zhao Hui once again admired Yu Qian as a scholar.
Kill decisively!
This is a great talent!
Seizing the opportunity, he shouted: "Brothers, Xie Chao is dead. It's useless to talk more. Go to the city to defend!"
"Uptown defense!"
Only then did people react.
