Da Wei Chun

Chapter 587

"Don't worry, follow me out of the city first!"

Li Chengzhi confessed, and hurried to the side room.

More than a hundred retainers wear cotton shirts and leather robes.Li Cong just gave an order and put on his armor.

Even Wei Yu put on a soft armor, with a look of fear and excitement on his face: "Husband, but a thief came here?"

"Why, is it possible that you can help me kill a few?"

Li Chengzhi pinched her chubby face, "Don't be afraid, with me here, I will definitely protect you!"

Seeing that Li Chengzhi was still in the mood to chat and laugh, Gao Wenjun and Zhang Jingmo on the side were secretly relieved at the same time.

The two of them were dressed in the same way, and they were not lacking in silver armor, waist knife, and short bow.Gao Wenjun even held a six-foot eyebrow-aligning spear.

Li Chengzhi couldn't laugh or cry, but he also felt a little emotional in his heart.

It's better than being coquettish and hiding in the car, making a fuss when there is a slight change.

Seeing that the three ladies were tidying up, he got on his horse.Grabbing Wei Yu's collar with his hand, he lifted her lightly onto the horse.

Li Cong took the first step and led more than a hundred retainers to clear the way.

It is through the back door of the post station, which is relatively hidden.Perhaps it has been raining and snowing for days, and it has already entered the night. At this time, I only feel the cold wind, which is biting to the bone.

The streets are empty, and there are no pedestrians.The sky is like a black hole, not a single star can be seen.

Li Cong slowed down his horse as much as possible, and took advantage of the candlelight from the houses on the street to march towards the city gate.

But after walking more than a hundred steps, they came to a fork, and suddenly saw the lights.

The dozens of lanterns seemed to emerge from the sky out of thin air, illuminating the entire street brightly.If Li Cong hadn't practiced hard for a long time and became more and more stable, he would have almost made his subordinates start their bows.

Taking a closer look, the walls and roofs of residential houses along the road are shadowy, and it is impossible to count how many people are hiding.But in the middle of the fork, several rows of carriages stood impressively, blocking the way out.

"Da da da da... da da da da..."

A armored horse came out from the side alley, and immediately the knight was fully armored.In addition to the darkness of the night, Li Cong also recognized the appearance.

"Li joins the army!"

The visitor shouted loudly, and raised his visor again.

Li Cong's face changed suddenly, his pupils shrank into needle eyes.

Gao Zhan!

Why is he in the Shangdang if he doesn't serve as a direct sleeping general in the middle of the capital and protects the empress dowager?

No wonder Lang Junfu's face changed in horror when he heard Wang Xian's visit, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment, eager to leave the city.

I'm afraid it's already expected that something will happen...

Suspicious in my heart, Gao Zhan shouted again: "This road is blocked, go back!"

back?
Once they return to the post station, they will really become a trapped beast, with no way to escape.

If Yu breaks out of the siege here, there is still a glimmer of life, maybe he can't escape from the city...

Li Cong held the handle of the knife tightly, and said to the left and right: "Report to the Lord!"

"no need!"

A clear shout came from behind, Li Cong suddenly turned around, and first saw a yellow token.Then he was sure, and saw Li Xiaoxian holding a token.

This is the order of Li's family, and also the military order of Baijia's old department and Li's trilogy.Distinguish by size, shape, pattern.With just one glance, Li Cong recognized that it was the letter from the gentleman.

He can see clearly, and naturally his subordinates can also see clearly.No need to say much at all, all the retainers knew that Li Chengzhi had given the general order to Li Xiaoxian.

Li Cong hurriedly cupped his hands and stepped back.Li Xiao first stuffed the badge into his arms, leaned over and untied his riding bow from the hook: "Prepare for battle!"

The two words are powerful and resounding.More than a hundred songs responded in unison, and the empty and silent night sounded like a war drum.

The movements of the hundreds of people were surprisingly consistent, and within a few breaths, they were already bows and arrows.

Gao Zhan yelled sharply: "Li Chengzhi, aren't you afraid of hating this?"

Li Xiao first raised the bow in his hand: "General Gao Lang, don't talk nonsense. If you dare to fight, then go for it. If you don't dare to fight, get out of the way as soon as possible!"

"Even if you have passed the level of Gao Mou, can you pretend to be the city wall more than three feet high and the thousands of county soldiers in the city?"

"Don't say it's just a few thousand, so what if it's tens of thousands?"

Li Xiaoxian was still indifferent, "As for the city gate, just blow it open!"

fry?
This is what I'm afraid of...

Gao Zhan's face turned pale.

Just as he was meditating, he saw that Li Cong had been dismissed just now, and the person who dealt with him waved his hand, and more than a hundred of Li's trilogy played the strings in unison, aiming at the wall and the roof, Gao Zhan gritted his teeth forcefully: "Okay, I let!"

Following his orders, a dozen soldiers ran out immediately and moved the carriage blocking the road.

More than a hundred armored cavalry lined up in an orderly manner.Gao Zhan stood by the side of the road, his eyes staring like a bull's, and he didn't dare to blink.

But at the end, he didn't even see a carriage, and Gao Zhan's heart sank involuntarily.

Both the guards at the city gate and the officials in the post all swear by it, saying that there are only six or seven cars driven by Li's family members, but there is no one at this time?
It's definitely not that Li Chengzhi made a noise and stayed in the station.Instead, he made a quick decision and discarded his softness, even the three wives also changed into the same armor as in Part [-].

From this, we know that if he refuses to let him go, Li Chengzhi will really dare to burn the boat.

This decisiveness and fearlessness alone made Gao Zhan admire him, and made him gnash his teeth even more, but there was nothing he could do.

This couldn't stop Li Chengzhi, so what else could be done to keep him?
Gao Zhan hated it for a while, then ordered a few more times, and led his troops to run towards the south gate of the city...

Hearing the report from his subordinates, Yuan Tianci was stunned as if struck by lightning.

Li Chengzhi lied that he was dealing with Wang Xian in the front yard, but he himself sneaked away through the back door.Just like Wang Xian is a scourge, trying to harm him, but he resolutely gave up his clothes and chariots, almost like running for his life?

What is even more unbelievable is that there are actually armored soldiers blocking the post outside the post, not only wearing helmets and armor, but also carrying swords and bows, almost like fighting with open flames.

No matter how unbearable Li Chengzhi is, he is still a first-rank prince, an upstart in the dynasty.What is the difference between Shangdang's actions and rebellion?

After being dazed for a while, Yuan Tianci realized that Wang Xian was on the side.Subconsciously, his face sank, and he asked neither humble nor overbearing: "Dare to ask Wang Shijun, what is your intention?"

This is not a good thing either, no matter it is Yu or not, he pressed Wang Xian's head with one mouth.

Wang Xian sighed sadly: "What are you doing with this old man?"

After saying that, he stood up, but walked out on his own.

Hearing the shouts from his own soldiers and subordinates, it seemed that he was about to go out of the city to find Li Chengzhi, Yuan Tian gave him a shock: I am afraid that there is going to be a war?

Well done, why is Wang Xian so crazy?

He hastily summoned his subordinates and asked them to keep an eye on the station, and he rode another horse and ran out of the city.

Outside the city is also a mess.

Zota's military camp is like a rat's nest that has been flooded with water.The officers screamed, and the soldiers ran wildly, without a clue.

No wonder it's such a mess.

It is true that the military order came too quickly, and the rice bowl was still in his hand. The Shangguan suddenly said that there was an enemy attack and he wanted to go out of the camp to form an array.

It would be fine if they gathered in one place, but Li Chengzhi was sympathetic to the soldiers and borrowed a folk house for them to stay overnight, fearing that it would be cloudy, snowy and cold in the wild for days.Therefore, the sound of golden drums beating everywhere, but the soldiers did not know where to gather.

Afterwards, it was Li Hui who offered a plan and set fire to a haystack in a grain field, so that the soldiers had some clues.

It was almost a mess, but Sima Gukai was not in a hurry, he only thought that Li Chengzhi made a fuss and didn't know what tricks he was up to.

This is Shangdang, the heartland of the Central Plains.It is not a border town, where horse thieves and bandits often haunt.What's more, Li Guogong lives in the city, so what's the danger?
He sat on the horse, staring at the sky curiously.

It was just now that the meritorious Cao Li Hui came to look for him, saying that there was an urgent order in the city: the post station suddenly changed, and there were rebels who wanted to murder the Duke.It is also known that the Duke of the State is about to leave the city, so he ordered the Chinese army to line up outside the city to meet the enemy.

Gu Kai is a Sima, and it is true that he is the chief military official of the Duke's Mansion, but among the six chief officials under him, four of the chief officials are Li Chengzhi's confidantes.Just like Zhongbing Cao, Gong Cao, Hu Cao, and Cang Cao, Li Hui is one of them.

Furthermore, Li Chengzhi was well-known outside the world, and all kinds of treacherous techniques shocked the world, so Li Hui said that Li Chengzhi had sent a letter from the city, and Gu Kai had believed it [-]% to [-]%.

He was just curious, now that the gates of the city are closed, there is no sound of golden drums coming from below the city, and there is no way to see his fingers on the city, how did the order come out, and how did it come out so clearly and so quickly? of?
After Li Hui pointed to the sky, Gu Kai suddenly realized that there were clusters of sparks bursting out like meteors hanging upside down in the midair.

"What is this that is so miraculous?"

Li Hui said concisely: "Fire!"

Gu Kai asked again: "How did you make it?"

Li Hui didn't make a sound, but just gave Gu Kai a weird look.

This is the top secret of the Li family, the Queen Mother, Yuan Ying, Yuan Cheng, Gao Zhao and others persecuted him so much, and the gentleman didn't even utter a single word, where did Gu Kai have the courage to ask such a thing?

He just shook his head: "I don't even know!"

Don't say he doesn't know, there are only two people in the entire Li family who know the entire formula and the specific process.

One is Li Chengzhi, and the other is Li Liang.

The rest are half-knowledgeable, only know one, don't know the other...

Gu Kai knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he smiled embarrassingly.Hearing another "creak", he suddenly raised his head.

The city gate was actually opened?
Regardless of the county seat, county seat, or state seat, the city gates are closed at night.It was an urgent order from the imperial court, or even an imperial decree, at most it was to hang people to the city.But the city gate will never be opened.

This is common sense and the law.

But if it is opened, it all shows that something has changed.

Seeing the shining group of armored cavalry coming out, it was clearly Li's trilogy, Gu Kai's heart skipped a beat: Could it be that someone really wanted to assassinate Li Guogong?

In just a few breaths, the silver armored cavalry rushed across the moat one after another.Gu Kai recognized Li Chengzhi as Li Hui when he heard Li Hui call out to him.

He urged him to come forward to greet him, Li Chengzhi just hummed lightly, and then looked at the still chaotic army formation.

It's been almost two minutes since he issued the warning, and the two thousand soldiers haven't even lined up yet?
Although Gu Kai thought that Li Chengzhi was fussing and slowing down his work, it can also be seen from this that the two thousand Chinese troops are stronger than the mob, but they are limited.

Naturally, the imperial court could not be so extravagant as to send Li Chengzhi the Central Army to guard the capital as a soldier of the country. However, considering the long distance and the frequent rebellions in the northern states, they did not recruit a group of civilians for him temporarily. Two thousand were sent to Gao Zhao's new army to conquer Shu.

Weapons, armored soldiers, chariots, horses, food and grass are also considered complete, but this combat power is really not flattering.

Although Gao Zhao trained them, it is impossible for everyone to be Gao Zhao's confidants.With Gu Kai as a stunned young man, and all Caos and brigades having Li's servants as their officials, Li Chengzhi was not only worried that the two thousand Chinese troops would turn against him on the spot.

If there is an emergency, it can only be used.

He sighed secretly, and shouted again: "Li Cong, set up the tent, welcome Wang Shijun!"

Wang Shijun, Wang Xian?

Gu Kai was slightly taken aback: "Why did Wang Shijun come to Shangdang?"

Not only Wang Shijun, I'm afraid it would be better to add Gao Sikong.

Otherwise, Gao Zhan would not have come to the party out of thin air, and even made a show of his chariots, trying to harm Li Chengzhi.

It's not that Li Chengzhi underestimated him. Without absolute support, Gao Zhan would not have dared to be so presumptuous to him with a hundred courage.

Seeing a huge lantern rising slowly into the sky, knowing that it was the guard of honor of Duke Li, the noise in the camp became a little quieter.

That is to say, the camp tent was ready to be set up. Yuan Tianci came first, and rushed into the tent with cold sweat: "Duke, Gao... Taiwei Gao has arrived outside the camp!"

He thought that Li Chengzhi would turn pale with shock, but he just nodded his head, as if he had expected it a long time ago.

"Have you seen Captain Gao?"

"I've seen it!"

"Did the Taiwei mention why he suddenly joined the Shangdang?"

"The Taiwei didn't mention it, but Wang Shijun claimed that due to the continuous heavy snowfall, the Dahe (Yellow River) and the Fen River flooded, flooded Fen and Bingzhou's fertile fields, and countless dwellings. Therefore, the Empress Dowager urgently ordered the Taiwei to go north to relieve the two. State!"

A good excuse?

Li Chengzhi gave a light oh, and said again: "Please!"

Yuan Tianci was 1 puzzled, thinking that since Taiwei and Wang Shijun are both in the Shangdang, why didn't the officials of the Shangdang mention it to him?
Besides, these two are visiting Li Guogong, so why do they need to stay in the middle of the night?
What's even more strange is, why did Habayashiro Gao Zhan lead his troops in the city to stop Li Guogong from leaving the city?
Everything was weird, but Yuan Tianci didn't dare to talk too much, he just went out of the account respectfully and went to meet Gao Zhao.

After he left, Li Xiaoxian said in a low voice: "Mr. Lang, Gao Zhao is the Taiwei, and he is not allowed to leave the capital without any reason. Now he is blatantly blocking you here, I am afraid that the person who came here is not good!"

It means that Gao Zhao may have turned his back on him, and Wang Xian and Shangdang have turned his back on it too!
Li Chengzhi seemed to have a plan in mind, and shook his head lightly: "Don't worry, it won't be so fast!"

It has only been nine days since Li Feng burned the grain.It was Gao Meng who sent an urgent report to Gao Zhao at [-] li, which took at least three days and at most four or five days.There are only four or five days left, how many arrangements can Gao Zhao make in such a hurry?

To break the sky is to find an excuse to leave the capital and flee to the north.The reason why he suddenly appeared in Shangdang was because he was unwilling and happened to drop by, so he came to look for Li Chengzhi.

If Gao Zhao really had the absolute confidence to put him to death, or even if Wang Xian and Bingzhou had already joined the rebellion, all he had to do was take advantage of Li Chengzhi's unpreparedness and use all the troops of Shangdang County to attack the station.

With more than a hundred retainers and even a few firearms to rely on, Li Chengzhi estimated that there would be more than good luck.

That's why Li Chengzhi instructed Li Xiaoxian: Get out of the city as soon as possible without delay...

Fortunately, he ran fast, if he was blocked in the city by Gao Zhao, he would have to die.

Otherwise, could Gao Zhao be allowed to kidnap him to Xiazhou?
