Chasing King

On the seventy seventh day after they surrendered to the imperial court, the anti rebel forces rebelled again.

Emperor Zhaowu was very angry. He was always indecisive and criticized as the benevolence of women by later generations, but he immediately ordered to kill Yang Yue.

This time, there was no need for anyone to advise him. He ordered the Luoyang anti rebel army to rush to Shu and exterminate Bao Yunyong.

How could Bao Yunyong wait to die in the same place, As Yan Sikong had expected, they sailed down the Yangtze River and captured two small cities in seven days. By the time they reached Kuizhou, there were 50000 rebels. Kuizhou was in a dangerous position. If Jingzhou was the first in the world, Jingzhou would be the first. Once the rebels captured Kuizhou, Jingzhou would be the first The upstream river course and the official way behind the state grain transportation are in danger, so the banditry is no longer a mob, but a real king.

Kuizhou is by no means an easy place to attack, but Bao Yunyong has no better choice. If this road is blocked, when the rebels arrive in Luoyang, they will surely die. Now the only way to survive is to occupy Kuizhou city. As long as they are in danger, there will be heroes from all walks of life.

In the past, fifty thousand militiamen could not attack Kuizhou, but Kuizhou was also suffering from the disaster of snow. Food and grass were in short supply and people's hearts were shaken. Bao Yunyong was not in a hurry to attack Kuizhou. Instead, he let the soldiers who had relatives in Kuizhou shout at the bottom of the city every day to persuade them to surrender and join the uprising.

Kuizhou is defensive, tough minded and unmoved.

When the two armies were deadlocked, a small incident happened in the capital thousands of miles away.

When Zhou Fuxing was in Tinglan Pavilion, he quarreled with a man for the sake of leaving at night. The man was so drunk that he said that when the king of Liang integrated the rebels into the capital, he would be the first to kill your Laozi shuntianfu Yin.

The man ran away on the way to the yamen, but his remarks caused quite a stir. Because of the cancellation of the annual rites, the reduction of salary and the strict investigation of the occupation of the common people's farmland, the Fengzi Longsun, who had enjoyed more than 200 years of glory, dared not speak up. It was rumored that emperor Zhaowu wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of snow disaster to cut the vassal, and the vassal kings were in danger, among them the most powerful king Liang They are secretly recruiting.

The land of Yanliu is a place where good and bad people mingle. It's normal for people with secrets to go in and out. However, this man is drunk, which makes people think that he speaks truth after drinking, which makes him more credible.

The news spread all over the government and the public within a few days. Finally, it turned out that the king of Liang intended to rebel and wanted to raise troops from Jingzhou to encircle Kuizhou with Bao Yunyong.

To win the two cities means to completely open the gateway to the south of the Yangtze River. Jinling is just around the corner. If Jinling is lost, the great Shengjiang mountain will be divided into two. People all over the world have long resented emperor Zhaowu's lazy Administration for decades. When King Liang became emperor in Jinling, he didn't worry that no one would rebel.

According to Yan Zilian, Emperor Zhaowu summoned important officials in his bedroom in the middle of the night to discuss countermeasures, and many people lost weight.

Yan Zilian knows how to deal with these major events. If Yan Sikong wants to inquire about them again, he can't ask anything. He just says with a sad face that Dasheng's national fortune has been bumpy in recent years. If it's God's will, it's hard for human resources.

Yan Sikong, however, disagrees in his heart. He doesn't believe in heaven. If heaven has eyes, how can the world be cruel? He only believes in himself.

When he thought that emperor Zhaowu couldn't sleep at night, Xie Zhongren couldn't sleep, and Ge Zhong would be in a dilemma, he felt very happy. When he was a child, he couldn't control his own destiny. He watched his loved ones die one by one. Now that he grew up, he had to control the fate of others, more people, even the fate of the world!

After a few days of rumors, Jiang Ling, one of the six subjects, had the privilege to impeach and criticize the monarch, his ministers and his people. He said that the king of Liang intended to plot against him and persuade emperor Zhaowu to cut his vassal.

Many days of silence, whether the emperor or the courtiers, I'm afraid they are waiting for such a person to come forward and say the word "cutting the vassal.".

It is not enough to say that the emperor can not take the initiative to cut the vassal, which is against the will of his ancestors, and the ministers dare not take the initiative to cut the vassal. Whoever mentions it may be the second Chao Cuo.

Chao CuO advocated cutting the vassals, resulting in the rebellion of the seven kingdoms. In the end, the emperor abandoned the vassals in order to appease their anger.

However, if the imperial court is weak and corrupt again, there must be people who are not afraid of life and death who dare to speak up. Although Chao CuO died, he was ranked in the history of the Qing Dynasty. People of insight in the world regard the eternal fame as their highest ideal, let alone death.

Emperor Zhaowu feigned anger and fought ten battles against Jiang Ling in court.

It didn't matter. The officials were inspired and spoke in turn. If the officials were rewarded, whether they were killed or maimed, it would be a matter of honor for them, because it was a proof of bravery and loyalty.

In just a few days, the word "chifan", which was originally taboo, has been rampant.

In the end, no one can tell whether emperor Zhaowu wanted to cut his vassal when he heard that emperor Liangwang wanted to cut his vassal, or King Liangwang wanted to cut his vassal when he heard that emperor Zhaowu wanted to cut his vassal. One of them didn't want to cut his vassal, and the other didn't want to. Now they are hard to ride a tiger.

Yan Sikong quietly dormant in the dark, watching the situation toward their own plan gallop away. Every time he thought about what kind of torture Ge Zhong was going through, he felt extremely happy. If he only wanted the lives of these dog thieves, a few assassins would be enough. But he wanted more than their lives. He wanted them to die miserably.——

Before the spring snow melts, Kuizhou sends an urgent report. Kuizhou garrison is assassinated by spies, and then opens the city gate. Bao Yunyong takes Kuizhou without a single soldier. When the 20000 Ping rebels sent by Luoyang arrive in Kuizhou, they are already the "King flag of the city".

Although the king of Liang did not encircle Kuizhou with Bao Yunyong, it is a fact that Kuizhou was lost. With 20000 troops, it's like climbing to heaven to capture the high city garrisoned by tens of thousands of people.

People from all walks of life are in a state of panic. They all know that this crisis is unusual and a little careless. Jinling is afraid of having more than one emperor. It's better if the king of Liang is called emperor. If he is taken over by some despicable grass bandit, the whole world will have to change his surname.

Emperor Zhaowu ordered the cavalry general Di Feng to be commander-in-chief. He raised troops from Luoyang and Huguang to join the rebels in Luoyang to fight against the rebels.

In the name of suppressing bandits, the soldiers and horses from Huguang mainly came from Jingzhou.

The plan of killing two birds with one stone can not only reflect the true face of the king of Liang, but also "explain" to other vassal kings who are watching the changes.

Finally, the king of Liang was forced to the edge of the cliff.
