Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 293
In the next two days, Shen Zhezi really saw what it means to be a chicken and a dog.

The front of Xuanyang Gate has almost become a vegetable market, and the subordinates of various government houses go in and out, and within a quarter of an hour, more than a dozen edicts will be issued and spread to all parties in the city.Many soldiers of the old guard walked in and out, like ants on a hot pot, circled around Taicheng under the leadership of the general, not knowing where they should be sent.

What's more, relatives and clansmen of various families waited outside Taicheng with ox carts and luggage, waiting for the family members who were officials in Taicheng to come out, and then boarded the ship and fled immediately.

As far as the field of vision is concerned, there are voices of human voices, yelling, shouting, and even the screaming and crying of women.In such a chaotic scene, no one stepped forward to maintain order.

Shen Zhezi really couldn't see it, and just planned to send people to drive away the family members blocking the Xuanyang Gate.But before his family could make a move, hundreds of guards with a relatively well-formed formation galloped on the south road and rushed all of them away.

Surrounded by these guards were Zhong Ya and Zhao Yin who had been sent to garrison Cihu earlier. behind the army.Zhong Ya and others chased after them in a hurry. They fought a fierce battle at Lingkou, but they were defeated and retreated. Immediately after receiving an imperial edict, they retreated to the capital and set up defense.

Zhong Ya's left leg was scratched by a crossbow arrow. When she saw Shen Zhezi standing there when she passed Xuanyang Gate, her expression froze for a moment, and someone called Shen Zhezi to the front of the car and shouted: "Why is Wei Zhou still here? , should leave quickly!"

After finishing speaking, he got out of the car and boarded the chariot, and before he had time to say anything more, he hurried into Taicheng to accept the imperial edict.

Shen Zhezi couldn't help being moved by Zhong Ya's reprimand, but he also heard that the external situation had become corrupted to the extreme, and even the minister who was fighting on the front line had no confidence in keeping Jiankang.

Not long after, a group of soldiers surrounded Shang Shu Ling Bian, and Zhong Ya, Zhao Yin and others who had entered earlier left Taicheng in a hurry and went out of the city along Chidao.

Without hesitation, Zhou Mo, the general of the rear army, led a group of guards to gallop out from the left side of Taicheng City, and drove away all the family members of the Taichen officials who were blocking the Xuanyang Gate, followed by howling and cursing.Some female family members of noble families fell out of the cars that had retreated in panic, lying on the ground revealing their white skin, and were touched by the passing soldiers of the guards, and a series of sharp howls erupted immediately.A group of house slaves rushed forward, but they did not dare to make a sound in the face of those guard soldiers who were equipped with swords.

In the afternoon, Du He walked to the Xuanyangmen office with a solemn expression, and told Shen Zhezi the latest situation outside the city in a low voice: "The rebellious army has passed Lingkou, Taichung has added three thousand troops to Guo Mo, and Duke Bian went out of the city with festivals to control the army. We will fight against the rebel army. If we lose this battle, the capital will be in danger!"

Hearing that Zhongshu was still focusing on the defense line in the northeast of Gyeonggi at this time, Shen Zhezi couldn't bear it anymore, and said, "Is there no one who advised Zhongshu to deploy defense against Jiang Ling?"

Du He sighed and said: "Tao Sima of Situ's Mansion has already made a remonstrance that the rebels should avoid the stone city and attack around the city, but it has been rejected by Zhongshu."

When Shen Zhezi heard this, he was speechless again. At such a critical juncture, Zhongshu was still very clear about it.Around Jiankang City, it is true that Stone City is the number one military defense city, but the importance of Jiangling Fuzhou Mountain is not much less.

Jiangling is Zhongshan where the Eastern Wu Imperial Mausoleum is located. It was renamed Jiangshan to avoid the taboo of Sun Quan's ancestors.Fuzhou Mountain is the mountain peak closest to Gyeonggi, how close is it?The foot of Fuzhou Mountain is next to Taicheng, and rushing down the mountain is Beiyuan Prince Xichi!
Now there are tens of thousands of guards in the capital, nearly ten thousand troops have been divided into Cihu and other places earlier, and the later general Guo Mo is now commanding more than six thousand guards near the Wuping Mausoleum in the north of the city.

If he wanted to deploy defenses in Jiangling again, it would be necessary to transfer Langya County Wang Shu's army to the north. In this way, it would be tantamount to dividing half of the city's defense tasks to the Wang family.However, Wang Shujun was the second sequence prepared by Zhongshu. He probably didn't think it was impossible for Liyang to go around the city, but he still hesitated to use the reserve force too early.

After talking about the situation in Gyeonggi, Du He said: "Both Jinling and Wujun sent troops, and they were repelled by the Zhongshu yesterday. Xuzhou used Liu Ju to increase the army by three thousand, and the Zhongshu has already ordered it."

Wang Fu's army is Wang Shu, who already commanded thousands of troops earlier, and now he has Xi Jian to increase his troops, and now there are probably nearly ten thousand troops.It was already an extremely important force to protect the city near Gyeonggi, but he was not allowed to transfer orders from Zhongshu. In addition, Wang Shu himself was in a state of mind, and he was always wandering outside Gyeonggi.

After talking to Shen Zhezi, Du He returned to Taicheng in a hurry. Now that Zhongshu was in a frenzy, if he found out that he had left his post without authorization, he would have to suffer a roar of anger.

Although he no longer had any hope of defending the city, Shen Zhezi was still distressed when he heard Du He talk about the latest situation.He has nothing to worry about in the layout of the city, even if there are omissions, now that the situation is imminent, he can only bite the bullet.However, Wang Shu's army strength surged outside the city, so he had to consider whether Wang Shu might go east to Qu'a and Jurong.

After pondering for a while, Shen Zhezi still quickly wrote a letter, telling several Longxi soldiers to go out of the city and go to Qu'a to warn.Wang Shu received a sudden increase in troops, and Qu'a's side would not be too slow to be unprepared, but Shen Zhezi would never feel at ease if he didn't notify.

This is also a worry about gain and loss when a big event is approaching, and he has a calm attitude every time a big event is approaching. He still can't achieve this kind of self-restraint for the time being.After all, what will happen in the next two days will be a concentrated explosion of many efforts in the past few years. If the ideal effect cannot be achieved, it will be a pity for him.

After nightfall, Shen Zhezi still stayed in the Xuanyangmen office. Now many of his family members have been sent out of the city, the princess has also entered the garden, and the courtyard is empty after returning home.Very deserted.

The third watch has passed, and the lights in Taicheng are still brightly lit, and many guards are wandering and patrolling outside the various government offices.Shen Zhezi was resting his eyes in his office when he suddenly heard whispered calls from outside. He led a few entourages out to have a look, and saw a few people standing timidly under the shadow of the palace wall. All the friendly families are officials in Taichung, both in the north and the south.

"It's great that Weizhou hasn't rested yet. Earlier, my family sent a message that I would go home quickly to deal with urgent matters. I don't have time to spare during the day. Can Weizhou make it easier for me now?"

Hearing these people's words, Shen Zhezi frowned in his heart, deal with urgent matters?It's not just fleeing across the city.But at this time, there is really no need for him to abide by any prohibition. Even if these people don't escape, staying in Taicheng is useless, it just makes people's hearts more corrupt.

After pondering for a while, Shen Zhezi asked people to open the small door next to the main entrance, telling these people to get out quickly.The crowd expressed their thanks again, and then someone persuaded: "Now that the situation in the capital has become overwhelming, it's really unwise for Weizhou to stay here any longer. Why don't you go with us? You can take care of us along the way."

Shen Zhezi couldn't help raising his brows when he heard this. These bastards can just run away by themselves, but it's a bit too much to encourage him, a dedicated gatekeeper, to run together!As long as he doesn't stare and charge upwards, even if Su Jun's army attacks outside the Xuanyang Gate, he will only send troops to protect him and dare not harm him casually.These people encouraged themselves to run away, but they wanted to use their own weapons to give them a little sense of security.

Although he was already upset in his heart, he still politely declined these so-called good intentions, but Shen Zhezi had already remembered all these people in his heart, so there was no moral integrity, so he really couldn't make much use of it in the future.

Not long after returning, someone knocked on the door again, and Shen Zhezi was completely annoyed. Even if the rebels had already approached the city, they still fucking kept people from sleeping!
He simply ordered people to open the closed door directly, and asked Liu Chang and others to deal with the guards who came to inquire.Now that the gates are open, he wants to see how many shameless Taichens are still running out of Taicheng.

The four doors of the brightly lit Xuanyang Gate were wide open, and Shen Zhezi sat at the main entrance, seeing people still rushing here in the shadows in the distance.It's just that seeing this scene, those people probably didn't expect that they stopped immediately, as if hesitating, and after a while, some people backed away in embarrassment, and some turned to other directions.

In this way, it was not until the middle of the night that Shen Zhezi finally became pure and returned to his workplace to take a nap.It was just that when it was still daylight, Shen Zhezi was woken up by the shouting outside. As he went out, he saw that the vicinity of Xuanyang Gate had become a mess, and people kept pouring out of the city.And not far behind, Zhongshu Yuliang stood there with a livid face. Although there were guards around him, he did not make a sound to stop these fleeing people.

Standing outside the office and listening for a while, Shen Zhezi finally understood the reason for the chaos. Last night, Su Jun's army marched past the city through Xiaodanyang in the south of the city, and now they have occupied Fuzhou Mountain in Jiangling!In other words, half of Gyeonggi today has been exposed to the sword of the rebellious army without any cover, and it is the most important inner garden of Taicheng!

It can be said that Zhongshu's strategy has completely failed to be grasped by the rebel army with such a large strategic advantage. No wonder Yu Liang has lost his confidence when he sees so many officials fleeing in all directions without stopping them.

Shen Zhezi didn't have any thoughts of gloating at this moment, and he didn't bother to join in to make trouble at this moment, so he turned around and returned to his workplace.

Standing there, Yu Liang watched the courtiers rushing out. There was not much indignation in his heart, but more bitterness. When he glanced at the back of Shen Zhezi, there was a trace of surprise in his eyes, and then there was no lack of coldness. He waved his hand to call a family member to whisper something, and soon returned to Taicheng.Although the situation has collapsed, others can mess with him but he can't. Do your best and make the last fight!
When the climax of Tai Chen's fleeing came to an end, and Xuanyangmen returned to desertion, suddenly a group of old guards rushed into the office and surrounded Shen Zhezi: "The rebellious army is approaching Jiangshan, and the capital is in danger. Please Shen Lang move out." Step by the side of the book so that you can stay close and guard."

When Shen Zhezi heard this, his face changed immediately, and he immediately understood the deep meaning of Zhongshu's arrangement of himself in Xuanyangmen.In addition to close supervision, it is also good to take yourself on the road at critical moments.And the deeper meaning of this is probably because his behavior of sticking to the capital aroused Zhongshu's suspicion, and he probably thought that there was some connection between his family and Liyang!
It's just that Shen Zhezi doesn't have much fear of Zhongshu at the moment, and Zhongshu may not be stronger than himself in the real power that can be controlled in the capital.So he slowly got up and held the sword in his hand, and just about to speak, the guard general who spoke before said again: "Your humble Liang Yong, I have been ordered by Zhongshu to guard Shen Lang's safety."

Hearing this, Shen Zhezi's eyes flickered, and he looked at the other party suspiciously, and the other party responded with a subtle nod.After pondering for a while, he called Liu Changlai, whispered in a low voice for a while, and then left the office, and marched into Taicheng surrounded by the guards.
