Chapter 331 Wait for a good show
Just as Kan Ling waved Mo Dao and was about to kill the archers of Fang Dingbu who were swarming in, Du Fuwei's head was running quickly.
As Du Fuwei, who has gone from a grassroots struggle to the current leader of the Jianghuai River, the Prince of the Tang Dynasty and the Minister of War, he instantly saw the problem, which was a trap.
Du Fuwei shouted loudly: "Kan Ling, stop!"
Kan Ling cracked her mouth and smiled and said, "Entertainment Father, I will protect you and fight out of Chang'an!"
Although hundreds or thousands of people rushed up from the long street opposite, densely packing the streets and alleys, these people were really not taken seriously by Kan Ling.
Fangding, as the name suggests, is the Ding Zhuang in Fang. When he was on duty, he had the power to hold a crossbow and followed the command of Wuhou to participate in patrols and deal with emergencies. However, this is a half-army and half-people organization, with loose training and equipment.
Most of the dead soldiers under Kan Ling are the backbone elites of the JAC Army and are the best among the tens of thousands of JAC Army warriors. It is no exaggeration to say that each of them has the strength to block ten. Although there are only 500 people, in such street battles, a ten-fold enemy cannot do anything to them.
"Random, dare you to disobey!" Du Fuwei had already seen that this was a trap, so how could he sit and watch Kan Ling lead the adopted sons and dead soldiers into the fire pit. Du Fuwei shouted coldly: "Don't fight, retreat quickly to the mansion!"
Du Fuwei was the soul of the Jianghuai Army and the belief of the Jianghuai Army. Naturally no one dared to resist his orders. As Kan Len strode and rushed into the Wu Palace, the adopted sons rushed in quickly.
Just as Kan Ling entered the front yard of the King of Wu Mansion, the archers of Fangding Bu on the opposite side of the King of Wu Mansion dispersed. As Fangding dispersed, there were a thousand imperial guards wearing black armor and turtles and helmets appearing behind them. The crossbows in the hands of these Yuanxiong soldiers had already opened, and the arrowheads that were so sharp that they were already embedded in the arrow groove. They pointed straight at the King of Wu Mansion under the city. A cold bloodthirsty aura swept across the mansion, which made the whole army under Du Fuwei change their faces. The most terrifying thing was that they heard the clanging sound of armor, and the ground was slightly shaken, and thousands of heavy infantry rushed out from the city gate like a group of tanks.
Du Fuwei looked at this scene and narrowed his eyes slightly. He murmured in his heart: "Zuo Weiyi's first palace, the Xun's second palace, the group of the second palace, really look down on a certain family!"
Kan Ling also changed his expression slightly at this time. Although the dead soldiers he led did not take those gangs seriously, they had to take the Left Guard seriously.
The Tang Dynasty actually did not have the imperial guards in the north and south of the Han Dynasty. The so-called Yuan Cong imperial guards in the nominal terms do not refer to the two armies of the left and right guards. This is the imperial guards with the best equipment and the most well-trained ones in Li Yuan's hands.
Kan Ling's face changed slightly. But Wang Shiguo's face was as white as earth. Although he was the son of Wang Xiongdan, a famous general in the Jianghuai Army, he had never seen such a situation before, and his body trembled unconsciously.
Du Fuwei looked at this scene, his heart was like a mirror.
Kan Ling also wanted to explain: "But, you adoptive father..."
Although Du Fuwei went to Jianghuai alone, the Li Tang court, especially Li Yuan, did not believe that he would surrender sincerely. Li Yuan, who could not even tolerate Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong, had no reason to tolerate Du Fuwei.
Although Du Fuwei was very frustrated, he had to endure this tone. Once he completely broke up with Li Yuan, he would not be able to become a rebel of the Tang Dynasty. Although he did not want to be a loyal minister for the Tang Dynasty, he had never thought about starting a film with the Tang army. Whether he could beat the Tang army was the same as one thing, but once the Jianghuai army fought with the Tang army, it would be equivalent to indirectly helping the Turks and Tubo people... Forget it, bear it first, and end the matter here, and then find a way to deal with you later!
Thinking of this, Du Fuwei pressed the murderous intent in his chest forcibly, and an inadvertent sneer appeared on his face: "Kan Ling, take them, hurry up and withdraw from the Wu Palace from the secret passage, and follow this secret passage to Dongcheng City. In the backyard of Jiangling Inn Dongcheng City, if the Tang army has not blocked the city gate yet, you can take the opportunity to withdraw from the city. If the city gate is blocked, stay in Jiangling Inn temporarily!"
Kan Ling said angrily: "Entertainment Father, we are no longer in Chang'an. We are not affected by their bird energy. Let's go back to Jianghuai..."
"Don't worry about me!" Du Fuwei smiled and said, "They were originally coming for you. If you are not here, how can he be patient with me?"
Kan Ling was unwilling to leave the Wu Prince's Mansion with her unwillingness.
Just as Kan Ling led the dead soldiers to leave the secret passage.
Jing Junhong led a large group of Yuan rushing into the Prince of Wu's Mansion from the Imperial Army.
At this moment, the guards of the King of Wu also showed their swords and confronted the guards.
Du Fuwei shouted sternly: "Who asked you to light up the weapons? Put them away!"
Wang Shiguo said: "Abide by the order!"
With a clang, the sword was put away and returned to the sheath. The shooter of the King of Wu's mansion also put away his powerful crossbow, and only the dozens of guards were still standing there like a wall, which made people feel very stressed.
Jing Junhong looked at the imperial guard Yuan Cong who died outside the gate of the King of Wu's mansion, and looked at Du Fuwei and said, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
Jing Junhong was actually a member of Li Shimin. During the historical Xuanwu Gate Incident, Feng Li, the general of the Eastern Palace, led his troops to invade Xuanwu Gate with Xie Shufang, under the command of the King of Qi. Jing Junhong stepped forward to fight. He stopped him and said, "It is not too late to observe the changes. When the soldiers gathered, they will fight together. "Jing Junhong refused to obey, so he shouted and advanced with the General Lu Shiheng of the Central Army and was killed. Li Shimin praised him very much and gave him the General of the Left Guard and the General of Shiheng's Right Guard.
Hearing this, Du Fuwei said without changing his expression: "I am wronged..."
Before Du Fuwei finished speaking, Jing Junhong said coldly: "I am not a minister of Dali Temple, nor the Minister of Justice. Is His Highness the King of Wu wronged and innocent? It is not within the scope of my duty!"
"General Jing is a clear example. Someone deliberately killed and injured Yuan Cong's Imperial Guard and framed me!" Du Fuwei said seriously: "I will enter the palace now and explain to Your Majesty!"
Jing Junhong did not make things difficult for Du Fuwei, but pointed and said, "Your Highness, please!"
Du Fuwei stepped out.
...
In the study room of Changsun Mansion, Changsun Wuji was practicing calligraphy, but he could not calm down no matter what, and his pen tip was already scattered. At this moment, the sound of footsteps came.
Changsun Wuji looked up and looked at Ye Zhiqiu and said, "How!"
Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and said, "Failed, nineteen people, all failed. The dead soldiers led by Kan Ling did not take action. The Imperial Guards searched the Wu Prince's Mansion, but no trace of Kan Ling and others was found!"
"Failure is inevitable!" Changsun Wuji sighed and said, "To deal with Du Fuwei, we must first understand what kind of person he is. Du Fuwei was born in poverty and can be said to be very lowly. Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou have been friends since childhood. Local officials have been experiencing heavy taxes and the people have lived in poverty. Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou rebelled together. He was only sixteen years old that year."
Ye Zhiqiu said in surprise: "Aged 16, isn't that the same size as Chen Ying was in Jingyang?"
Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "Yes, Chen Ying was also sixteen years old and guarded Jingyang City with seven people and thousands of mobs."
Ye Zhiqiu said thoughtfully: "What a genius, it's a pity that it can't be used by the King of Qin!"
Changsun Wuji smiled faintly and said, "After Du Fuwei joined the rebel army, he fought very bravely. Every time he fought, he rushed forward, from a small barge to the position of the rebel leader. Then, the rebel army he led gradually annexed the surrounding rebel army because of his bravery and good combat. Just as Du Fuwei's troops became increasingly powerful, a man named Li Zitong led another rebel army to join him, but Li Zitong suddenly launched a mutiny to annex Du Fuwei's team. The official army of the former Sui court also surrounded Du Fuwei at this time. Du Fuwei was seriously injured, and was finally carried by his general, Ximen Junyi's wife, and escaped from the siege. At that time, Du Fuwei almost became a bare general."
Ye Zhiqiu interrupted and said, "How old was he at that time?"
Changsun Wuji said: "At the age of nineteen, Du Fuwei occupied Liuhe by absorbing refugees and expanding his power. But at this time, Yang Guang ran from Chang'an to Jiangdu, and brought more than 100,000 elite officers and soldiers. Du Fuwei's Liuhe was right under Yang Guang's nose.
Ye Qiu knew: "Yang Guang did not destroy him, but instead let him grow bigger step by step?"
Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "This is the magical thing about Du Fuwei. Du Fuwei treats his soldiers like brothers and sisters, treats scholars very well. With the hearts and morale of the people, Du Fuwei is forced to sit under Yang Guang's nose, attacking the west and the west, destroying Shen Faxing and Li Zitong, and finally unifying the Jianghuai. How can such a hero be achieved overnight?"
Ye Zhiqiu pondered and said, "Wouldn't that be alarmed by the snake?"
Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "If you don't alert the enemy, how could Fu Gongyou have the chance to rebel?"
In fact, if Changsun Wuji had not been beaten by Fu Gongyou and other Jianghuai troops, there would have been no incident where Du Fuwei was humiliated by Li Yuan in Chang'an. Without this incident where Du Fuwei was humiliated, Kan Ling and others would have been indignant and went north in anger.
Now that the Jianghuai Army has lost the checks and balances of Du Fuwei's adopted sons such as Kan Ling, Fu Gongyou cannot control the Jianghuai Army, the Jianghuai Army cannot rebel, and the Qin King Li Shimin has no merit to suppress the rebellion. How can he have the opportunity to seize the position of the Eastern Palace?
In fact, in terms of opportunity, Changsun Wuji is not as good as Fang Xuanling, and in terms of decisions, he is not as good as Du Ruhui. However, even Du Yan is not a match for Changsun Wuji.
It can be said that Changsun Wuji had long been correct that Fu Gongyou regarded Jianghuai as his territory. As long as Changsun Wuji changed his personnel appointments, especially appointing himself as the Grand Sima of the Jianghuai Army, Fu Gongyou would definitely have an extreme reaction.
From Fu Gongyou to Du Fuwei, they were all within Changsun Wuji's calculations.
Ye Zhiqiu looked at Changsun Wuji and said, "Now, what do we do?"
