Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3631 win over allies
Cheng Yaojin was terrified, and quickly sat upright with a solemn face: "You said there would be a rebellion in the army?"

Recently, there have been rumors in the army, and the army's heart is unstable. He, the general of the army, naturally knows this, not only the rest of the troops, but also those rumors in the Zuo Wuwei under his command.It's just that in his opinion, now that the army is approaching Guanzhong, and Chang'an is fighting endlessly, it is impossible to intercept these messages. It is inevitable that the soldiers in the army will be affected by this.

But even so, why did the rebellion happen?

Li Ji knocked on the table, frowned and said displeasedly, "Don't bother me, I just ask you, if there is a rebellion in the army, how would you choose?"

Cheng Yaojin was silent for a while, then said solemnly: "I am only loyal to Your Majesty, and now Your Majesty... Then, I will be loyal to the Crown Prince."

For a long time, he has been regarded as the "side" faction in the DPRK. He is loyal to the emperor but does not participate in the affairs of the state, nor does he depend on any party's forces, maintains neutrality, and stands firm.Even if he promised his son to enter the six rates of the East Palace, it was because the Prince of the East Palace was the place of righteousness and righteousness. If he was not deposed by His Majesty in one day, he represented the righteousness of the empire.

He will never rely on any party because of greed and interests, but if anyone uses his power to rob him of his interests, it is absolutely impossible.

He doesn't have any further ambitions, it's enough to be a detached Zhenguan noble, I don't expect more benefits, and I don't go into the muddy waters of power struggles, of course, the premise is that none of you mess with me...

Li Ji nodded and said slowly: "Hundreds of thousands of large army hedgehogs gather in one place, and various unpredictable situations are inevitable. Once a mutiny or even a rebellion occurs, the entire army will collapse, and then the rebel army will ravage the nearby prefectures, and even Affect the situation in Chang'an. The army cannot be in chaos, this is the bottom line."

Cheng Yaojin pondered for a while, and felt that Li Ji would not dig a hole for himself, so he nodded in agreement.

They have all come all the way from the chaotic times of the late Sui Dynasty, and have seen too many disasters brought by the army to the common people. With a well-organized army, there are too many bandits with the same strength as a powerful country.

The chaotic army attacked the state capital, coerced the people, and robbed the money and food. This was a sign of the end...

Cheng Yaojin has no mind of "taking the common people of the world as his own responsibility", but he absolutely does not want to see the splendid rivers and mountains that the monarchs and ministers fought with blood to destroy in the raging war.

He is not a politician, but at least he still has his perseverance.

Li Ji added: "If there is a rebellion in the real army..."

Cheng Yaojin was firm and firm: "If someone starts a rebellion, you will definitely follow your lead and never be confused."

However, Li Ji shook his head and said, "We can't just sit back and watch the rebellion start before imposing sanctions. We must pre-empt the rebellion and strangle this rebellion before it takes shape, otherwise there will be endless troubles. But I'm not enough, and I need your help from the side. , shock the whole army."

The principle is true, but when Cheng Yaojin nods happily, he frowns suddenly.

I seem to be surrounded by this white-faced traitor...

If a rebellion occurs, it will be clear at a glance who is right and who is wrong, who is loyal and who is traitor.But the so-called "prevention before it happens" has not been launched yet, how do you know who is the traitor?
You can't tell Li Ji who is who is who?
But I have already agreed, but I can't regret it...

He frowned, glared at Li Ji, and said in a muffled voice, "Are you kidding me?"

Li Ji's face was serious, and he was unhappy: "When is this all, I have the idle mind to talk to you? Right now the military is unstable, and a little carelessness will lead to overthrow. You must not be negligent, otherwise it will lead to disaster. Big mistake, I can't regret it!"

Seeing Li Ji's attitude, Cheng Yaojin beat a drum in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "Then tell us, what the hell are you thinking about procrastinating upstairs?"

This is something that no one in the army can understand. With Li Ji's ability and wisdom, there should be no such delay in his journey and delay in returning. Since the day of the withdrawal of the troops from Liaodong, he has been dragging away for nearly three months, and since the severe winter Until the beginning of spring, it is still hundreds of miles away from Guanzhong... What kind of plans are there?
Cheng Yaojin was even more suffocated by this incident and was about to go crazy.

Li Ji was silent for a while, then stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup and took a sip, and said slowly: "What I do is to follow His Majesty's will. I have never thought of seeking benefits for myself or for a party, and I will only be loyal to Your Majesty from beginning to end."

Cheng Yaojin was silent.

Based on his understanding of Li Ji, he could feel that these words were all from the bottom of his heart, but the more so, the more suspicious he became.His Majesty has passed away. Could it be that His Majesty had foreseen that there would be a rebellion in Chang'an after his death, so he had something to say to Li Ji?

This is a little too bizarre.

His Majesty is indeed wise and talented, and he can be called a rare sage in the past, but Cheng Yaojin would not believe it if he said that he could predict the prophet...

But seeing Li Ji and being tight-lipped, he could only give up: "What you do, just arrange it, and everything will follow your orders."

Li Ji sighed and said, "Why would I want to do this? But this matter is imperative, and the rebellion is irreversible. If the traitors and traitors in the army can be eliminated in one fell swoop, no matter how great the sacrifice is, it will be worth it."

Cheng Yaojin naturally understood what it meant when there was a rebellion in the army, and frowned tightly and said, "If you plan to strike first, then make a plan and implement it quickly without delaying too much. The closer you are to Guanzhong, the more the rebellion will bring. The greater the harm, the longer the pain is than the shorter the pain.”

Li Ji glared at him and said, "How can this be made? The evidence of the crime is not revealed, and there is no evidence of the crime. That is to be punished without being taught. Those who didn't want to rebel must be forced to rebel. But don't worry, you just need to It is enough to prepare in secret, at most it is just before arriving in Luoyang."

Now those people have already planned it secretly, and maybe they haven't made up their minds for a while, but as long as they do a little oppression, they will inevitably arouse the vigilance of those people, and then launch it immediately.

Cheng Yaojin saw that he had nothing more to do, so he got up and left.He just stopped at the door, looked back and asked, "The generals in the army... Who can you trust?"

Naturally, he would not think that Li Ji only regarded him as a "righteous person", but he needed to know who he was, in addition to cooperating with each other, he could also take targeted preventive measures to avoid incidents Something went wrong.

Unexpectedly, Li Ji shook his head and said indifferently: "Besides you, I can't believe anyone in this army."

"what!"

Cheng Yaojin snorted in Yangtian and teased: "Is I want to thank you for your trust in the British Lord, or mock you as a lonely man and an enemy all over the world?"

Li Ji said leisurely: "Soldiers are not too expensive, as long as my Zuohouwei and your Zuowuwei are firm, they will certainly be able to shock the entire army and defeat the world! , but leaked secrets, so even if they are willing to come over, I will use it with caution."

The Sixteen Guards commanded the elite of the Tang army, but not all of them were strong and powerful. In terms of combat power, the left and right military guards and the left and right Houwei have always been the first ranks. The Youtun Guards, the others, were more than a step behind.

At present, there are hundreds of thousands of troops, of course, it is impossible for them to be all elites. Excluding supplies, civilian husbands, and troops under the jurisdiction of Zhechong Prefecture, the real elites are only 20. There are hundreds of thousands of guards.

So as long as the two armies are not in chaos, the rest will not be able to make too much waves, and this is where Li Ji's confidence lies...

*****
The army set off, still slowly and leisurely. The scouts from all walks of life seemed to be still on the front line. Hundreds of thousands of troops looked at each other head to tail, and the formation was neat. Countless vehicles carrying grain, glutinous and ordnance moved slowly with the army, facing Mengjin in the wind and snow. From here, we cross the Yellow River to Luoyang, then go eastward through Hangu Pass to reach Tong Pass, and then pass through Tong Pass and arrive at Guanzhong.

At noon, arrived at Mengjindu.

The so-called "Mengjin Ferry" is not a ferry, but a general term for a series of ferry ports located on the south bank of the Yellow River within this area.Back then, when King Wu attacked Zhou, the place where [-] princes would meet was here.Since the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, the policy of "controlling the river with the pass, guarding the pass with the river" has been pursued. Passes have been set up on both sides of the Yellow River, and the army has been stationed.

When the army arrived on the north bank of the Yellow River, tens of thousands of people gathered on the bank, the banners were like clouds, the soldiers were like sand, and they were vast and mighty as far as the eye could see.

The plan for crossing the river had been planned as early as halfway through, otherwise if we went to the river and then discussed the order of the troops to cross the river, I was afraid that it would be delayed for ten days and a half months...

It's just that tens of thousands of people gathered in one place. Although the plan for crossing the river was made in advance, when things come to an end, there are still some omissions, which lead to mutual congestion, collisions, and conflicts.

　I wish the candidates and book lovers the plenary meeting and the success of the exam, the title of the gold list, and the peak of life! ! !
