Chapter 460 Sword Finger Center

On the tenth day of June, Black Stone Pass.

The Black Stone Pass is only more than thirty miles away from Luokou Cang, and it is coming in a blink of an eye. That afternoon, Gu Jue brought a team of guards Feng Chi and Shi Zhizhi to visit the Black Stone Guard Pei Shuang, and planned to jointly submit a letter with him to request the Dongdu to quickly increase troops to support him.

Previously, Li Hun transferred the main force of the Eastern Front garrison to the Yique battlefield. In order to increase the garrison of Xingyang, King Yue dispatched troops from Yanshi, Heishi and Luokou to strengthen the Hulao, which resulted in the defensive power of the Eastern Front of Jingji. So King Yue ordered Henan Zanwu Pei Hongce to lead his army to the Eastern Front to defend, and then ordered Henan Lingda Xi Shanyi to lead his army to support the Eastern Front. However, until today, except for Yanshi, Heishi and Luokou have not seen any soldiers.

Pei Shuang comes from the Pei family in Hedong and is the son of Pei Yun, the chief censor of the censor. Pei Yun is an old minister of Jiangzuo. Even after returning to the church, his fundamental interests are still in Jiangzuo, so he naturally became a political link between the Pei family in Hedong and the Jiangzuo people. Both sides take their own needs and gain their own benefits, and there are conflicts, conflicts and tacit cooperation. The same is true for the Huangmen Minister Pei Shiju, who was an old minister of Shandong in the past. In this way, the central "Two Peis" had unique political advantages, in

Guanlong, Shandong and Jiangzuo’s three major political groups have political forces closely linked to their interests, and they can all be effectively integrated together. This is also one of the reasons why the Holy Lord trusts and reuses the “Two Pei”. The “Two Pei” is powerful, and the Pei family in Hedong was once glorious. Of course, the status of the Pei family’s children was also “high”. Especially the second-generation official like Pei Shuang is even more amazing. He is deeply trapped in flattery and gradually becomes lost. He doesn’t know how big or too thick he is.

Today, Gu Jue also came to do his best to flatter him, coaxing and deceiving him, hoping that Pei Shuang could come from Dongdu to reinforcements and urge Pei Hongce to enter Heishi and Luokou as soon as possible. Pei Shuang was very happy to be tempted, but he just didn't take action. In fact, he was also anxious and helpless. Now all the big men in Dongdu were not "attacked" with Pei, and even the Wei family in Guanzhong took the lead and pointed the spearhead at Pei Hongce, which was clearly intended to suppress Pei. In this case, not to mention that Pei Shuang, the younger generation, was unable to struggle, even the big men like Pei Hongce were helpless. In the end, they could only be invisible and could not afford to avoid being able to hide, and they could not go to the imperial city to "be angry".

Although Gu Jue was silly, he couldn't stand Pei Shuang's arrogance and was full of anger. Just when he couldn't bear it, he finally saw his confidant coming in from outside and made a gesture of getting everything done.

Gu Jue couldn't bear it anymore, so he suddenly stood up and rushed up with a punch, which made Pei Shuang's eyes dark, painful and uncomfortable, and roared miserably, calling his subordinates and guards, but there was no trace, only Gu Jue's roar and punches. Pei Shuang, a young man, was pampered and had never suffered such pain. He cried and cried and fainted.

When he woke up, it was already dark, and then he saw Yang Xuangan under the dazzling lights. He was stunned and frightened like a ghost.

Yang Xuangan looked kind and asked him to press a bloody handprint on a white silk full of words and write his name on it. Then everyone became brothers who shared weal and woe.

Pei Shuang knew what was going on as soon as she heard it. Yang Xuangan wanted to drag him into the water and threaten his father Pei Yun with his life and family's survival. Now it was a big trouble, and one of his life was nothing, but when the bloody handprint was pressed and the daimyo was signed, it confirmed that the crime of rebellion would inevitably affect his father Pei Yun and the entire family, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Before Pei Shuang could react, Yang Xuangan waved to the guards beside him. The guards rushed forward like wolves and tigers. Pei Shuang then ended his career as a second-generation official in screams and began a rebellious life.

When Yang Xuangan captured Heishi Pass, Pei Shuang raised his troops to respond.

This news was like a thunder that passed through Dongdu. Although it was deafening, no one was shocked. Everyone knew what should have known and had already started to prepare. What should have not known was also known from the large-scale arrests of Dongdu and the rumors that were rampant. However, it had a great impact. After all, it was about to fight, and the consequences of the war were well known, so this aggravated the chaos in Dongdu and worsened the situation in the capital.

On June 11, more nobles and wealthy people flocked to the east capital, while people from the surrounding areas rushed into the city to take refuge.

In the morning, King Yang Tong of Yue ordered that the three major cities of Dongdu, Datong and Tongyuan, immediately closed their business. All the bureaucrats of the Central Government and Henan Neishifu were dispatched to cooperate with the garrison to withdraw all the personnel and property from the surrounding areas of the city into the city to minimize losses.

He also ordered Wu Ben Lang General Zhou Zhong and Yanshi Chief Commander Laiyuan to do his best to defend the Yanshi line and resolutely block the invading rebels on both sides of the Luoshui River.

He also ordered Pei Hongce, the Henan Zanwu, and Daxi, Henan, led his army to attack and advance along the two sides of the Luoshui River toward Heishi Pass, and launched a counterattack against the rebels.

He also ordered General Li Hun of the Right Guard to shrink his defense and station troops on Hangu Pass, Cijian and Xiyuan to take on the important defense tasks of the east capital and the south.

He also urgently told Xingyang military and political chief Xun Wang Yangqing, Cui Baode that the war in Dongdu had broken out, Luokoucang and Heishi Pass had fallen, so the Xingyang side was asked to ensure the safety of the natural chasing defense line and Tongji Canal. Without the permission of Dongdu, no army was allowed to enter the Dongdu battlefield under any excuse.

He also ordered the Hulao defender Liu Changgong to do his best to defend Hulao Pass. Dong did not ask him to come out to support, but only asked him to stick to Hulao and resolutely block the rebels from attacking Xingyang from Hulao, ensuring the safety of Xingyang at any cost. Xingyang is safe, so the defense line of the Heavenly Chain can be defended. If the defense line of the Heavenly Chain is defended, it will also prevent the King of Qi Yang Nan from entering the Eastern Capital. As long as the King of Qi does not enter the battlefield of the Eastern Capital, the storm will be difficult to evolve into the imperial unity war. As long as the Emperor’s Unification War does not break out and the crisis is limited to a military coup, the development trend of the entire situation will be completely different.

He also ordered Hongnong Prefect Cai Wang Yang Zhiji to immediately recruit all the village clan groups in the county. On the premise of ensuring the safety of Hongnong City, the camera will support Hongnong Palace and its nearby Changping Points. If there is any support to respond to Yang Xuangan and endanger Changping Points, the person who will be killed will be killed without mercy.

He also urgently sued the right guard general Zheng Yuanshou, and the capital assistant Dugu Wudu, deputy commander Liu Gang, and Yang Xuangan have approached Dongdu. The war in Dongdu has broken out, but the situation is still within a controllable range. Please do your best to ensure the stability of the Jingji area west of Hangu Pass and east of Tongguan, which has not been affected by the war. Dongdu’s meaning is very straightforward. At present, I can still control the situation. I do not need your support, nor do I need support from Xijing, so you will not move. If the Xijing army is in Tongguan, you will be required to resolutely prevent the Xijing army from entering the Dongdu battlefield.

On the afternoon of the same day, in Ganluo City, Li Fengyun received a confidential message from Li Hun. At this moment, his connection with Cui had been interrupted, and the only source of information was Li Hun.

"Mr. Yue is very fast." Li Min couldn't help but exclaim when she heard that Yang Xuangan had captured Heishi Pass.

"It's too slow." Li Fengyun poured cold water without hesitation. "Since he is determined to raise his troops, since it is impossible to raise his troops at the best time, he should make a quick decision, take the opportunity to attack him unprepared, and send troops to attack Dongdu first, and catch Dongdu off guard. Instead of raising the flag in Liyang first, what is the point? Besides preparing Dongdu in advance and losing the few opportunities he has already lost? For some reason, I don't know why such a low-level mistake has occurred with Duke Jianchang (Li Zixiong)'s rich combat experience. Time is everything in this mutiny. You can get one more chance of winning by fighting for one day. However, judging from the current deployment of Dongdu's defense, Duke Yue has missed the best attack opportunity. Even if he kills the city of Dongdu and captures two outer capitals in the north and south, it will be difficult to capture the imperial city and the palace city."

This sentence is obviously too big. Li Mi, who has always been paying close attention to the dynamics of the Dongdu, disagrees because Yang Gongren lost control of the Dongdu defense when he returned to the rear guard's residence. Later, Yang Gongren continuously adjusted his troops to guard the imperial guards with Dugu Sheng, the left-level general Dugu Sheng, and Wu Ben Lang, Fei Yao, guarding the outer land, and Wu Ben Lang Lang, Li Gong, lived in Jinyong City and formed an internal and external attack with Dugu Sheng. His goal was to defend the imperial city and the palace city to the death. Therefore, Li Fengyun's words were unreasonable. Even if Yang Xuan was surprised to attack Dongdu and caught him off guard, it might not necessarily lead to the Dongdu defense collapse.

Li Min knew it well. The real meaning of Li Fengyun's words was to mislead Li Mi to make a wrong judgment and see if he could find out from Li Mi's "error" that Yang Xuangan's real intention of attacking Dongdu was to "build the plank road openly and cross Chen Cang secretly."

Li Mi pondered for a long time, looked up at Li Fengyun, and said, "At present, we can only take one step at a time. Since the chief executive thinks that the outer capital of the East Capital is within his hands and is within his hands, then what will be the next plan for the chief executive?"

Li Fengyun spread out the layout diagram of the East Capital on the table table, and pointed to the southwest corner of the layout diagram.

The southwest direction of the Dongdu is Xiyuan. The Xiyuan has Jicui Pond, which merges with Hegushui and Luoshui, and enters the Tongji Canal through the ecliptic channel. The Tongji Canal is actually built with the expansion of the undercurrent of the Luoshui River. Jicui Pond is more than ten miles in radius, and a long dike is built between it and the west wall of the Nanguo of the Dongdu, called Yuebi.

Li Fengyun's fingers were placed on this long dike called Yuebi.

Li Mi and Li Min understood Li Fengyun’s intention at a glance.

Yuebi directly reaches the south bank of the ecliptic channel. There are left and right Houwei Mansions on the south bank of the ecliptic channel. Through the ecliptic bridge on the canal, it directly reaches the north bank. It is opposite the left and right gates of the imperial city.

Li Fengyun's intention was to enter the Xiyuan, occupy Jicui Pond, and go straight to the ecliptic bridge from the long embankment of Yuebei to attack the imperial city and catch him off guard.

"Since the outer capital is within reach, we only have one goal, the imperial city." Li Fengyun said coldly, "If you take down the imperial city and destroy the morale of the garrison, it will be difficult for the palace city to stand firm. King Yue, Yang Gongren, Fan Zigai and others can only abandon the Eastern Capital and retreat to Hanoi, so the major matters can be settled."

Li Mi nodded repeatedly and praised this plan, but Li Hun would give up Xiyuan and let Li Fengyun enter the center of the Eastern Capital? It can be expected that the two sides will definitely start a bloody battle next.
