Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 582 The Emperor's Burning Heart

Although Cai Wenjing didn't know whose army this was, he quickly figured out the characteristics of the player's army, that is - "greedy"!
Yes, the characteristic of the player army is greed, as long as they have the opportunity, they will rush up and bite the meat like hyenas.

And Cai Wenjing is indeed very good at using troops. He used a small army as a bait to lure players to attack. After the players took the bait, Cai Wenjing would use a large army to fight out and wipe out several teams of players who were greedy for meritorious deeds.

However, after suffering some small losses, Yu Chixin also ordered a ban on ambushes within ten miles of Yingzhou City. Players have also become resistant to the bait set by Cai Wenjing. After all, compared with experience points, a life is much more valuable .

So a confrontation began, and a strange siege began. Although there were only 1 players, Cai Wenjing's department of more than [-] people was surrounded.

Cai Wenjing knew that as long as he broke through, he could easily break through the blockade of 2000 people, but if he left Yingzhou City, where else could he go in this white place?
Just as confused as Cai Wenjing was Shi Chaoyi who annexed Yuguan.

Shi Chaoyi could see Yuguan from the place where Shi Chaoyi camped, but he knew that the Tang army possessed weapons of mass destruction and that the Tang army had the ability to attack at sea, so Shi Chaoyi deliberately avoided the range of the artillery.

Zhang Guangde, who was in Yuguan, found to his dismay that neither the cannons on the walls of Yuguan nor the gunboats at sea could hit Shi Chaoyi's barracks.

Shi Chaoyi is also very good at using soldiers. He sent troops to provoke every day in turn, and went to Yuguan City Gate to scold and fight, which made the players very depressed.

But Yu Chixin explained that defending Yuguan is the top priority, so Zhang Guangde can only strictly order the players not to attack, and can only send patrol boats every day to retaliate.

The situation on the Central Plains battlefield has also undergone drastic changes.

After Shi Siming announced another rebellion, An Qingxu's remnant thieves in the north of Henan Province were greatly encouraged. An Qingxu personally led troops to break through Guo Ziyi's defense line in Huayin area. Guo Ziyi could only continue to retreat. Place the defense line again.

The bandits threatened Luoyang again, which caused a shock in Chang'an. The emperor ordered Guo Ziyi and Zhang Xun to guard Luoyang, and must not let Dongdu fall into the hands of bandits again.

The [-] Shence Army led by Li Fuguo also arrived in Luoyang. This time, Li Fuguo also knew that this battle was related to the fate of the Tang Dynasty. A godson is in charge of logistics and supplies, and resolutely does not intervene in military affairs.

With the same enemy on the front line, Guo Ziyi finally rearranged the defense line to block An Qingxu's offensive momentum, but the people in Luoyang City would still hear the shouts of killing.

Zhang Xun led soldiers to patrol the city wall every day, but they couldn't dispel the fear of the people of Luoyang when An Lushan broke the city a few years ago. Various rumors spread in Luoyang City, and the panicked people wanted to escape Luoyang as soon as possible.

But now Luoyang is under military control, and all the gates of the city are blocked. Zhang Xun is devastated every day to appease the people in the city.

Chang'an and Luoyang are the two capitals of the Tang Dynasty, and Luoyang is also the gateway to Chang'an. If Luoyang is like this, Chang'an is naturally not much better.

The lively atmosphere that had just been restored in Chang'an City was swept away, and the people of Chang'an once again began to worry about whether Datang would repeat the same mistakes, losing Luoyang and then Chang'an just like a few years ago.

But with the appearance of the front line, the divisions within the court became even bigger.

The officials of the East Palace and King Qi are all impeaching Guo Ziyi for his ineffective leadership and demanding that Guo Ziyi be held accountable for the defeat in Heyin.

Fortunately, Li Heng is also a "mature emperor" who has experienced several disastrous defeats. He knows that the biggest problem now is not to hold Guo Ziyi responsible for the defeat, but to stabilize the morale of the army as soon as possible to prevent An Qingxu's counterattack. All of Guo Ziyi's memorials were kept unpublished, and a few censors who made a fuss were triggered, so the situation was finally suppressed.

"Father, you should take less of the elixir offered by the emperor's brother. My daughter heard from the Taoist nun in the Taiqing Palace that although this elixir is good, you can't take too much at one time."

Princess Yanguang earnestly persuaded his father, but Li Heng still stuffed the "Golden Pill" into his mouth, and after he closed his eyes and digested the "Danli", Li Heng said: "You can have this kind of heart, Father! The emperor is relieved, if it weren't for the support of this golden elixir, the emperor would not be able to handle so many government affairs. This is the elixir sent by your prince brother, and it has been seen by alchemists and imperial doctors. Fang Zi, Taizong also ate it back then, so don't worry, daughter."

Princess Yanguang could only sigh. Taking elixir is the "tradition" of the royal family of Li and Tang. The princess knew that she couldn't persuade her, but her beautiful eyes were still wrinkled. After the Lantern Festival, the princess who knew the inside story of the court became more worried about the emperor's health. .

The father's health is not good. The crown prince who has been with the emperor for so long, in the words of the imperial physician, "fear enters the body". Headache.

After eating the golden elixir offered by the prince, the emperor's migraine got better, but there was also news from the servant who served the emperor that the emperor, who had improved a little, indulged in pampering the harem, and seemed to want to make the beauty of the previous decades go away. The colors are all back.

A few days ago, when Shang Bo came to the princess' mansion, he also expressed his anxiety about the emperor's body. Originally, Li Heng's capital was not rich, and relying on the internal fire ignited by taking pills, he couldn't stand the consumption of the harem.

Sure enough, the princess entered the palace today, and it was almost as expected by Shang Bo. He only felt that his father's footsteps were sloppy, his body was thinner than before, and his face was flushed abnormally.

However, after a few words of persuasion, the emperor distracted her with other topics. Princess Yanguang also resolutely stopped persuading her, and just gave her some dietary supplements.

After receiving his daughter's kindness, Li Heng was obviously in a good mood, but after picking up a new memorial, the emperor's expression became ugly again.

"Nizi! Don't they understand the principle of forbearance for the country? They are still fighting!"

The emperor threw out the memorial, and Eunuch Mu, who was waiting under the imperial steps, quickly picked it up, and then stood aside in awe.

Princess Yanguang didn't expect her father's mood to change so quickly, just now she was still talking about family affairs with a smile, but after seeing the memorial, she became furious.

The princess thought of the symptoms of erysipelas entering the body that Shang Bo had said. It seems that the father's body is indeed not as healthy as he thought.

Princess Yanguang walked down the imperial steps and took the memorial from Eunuch Mu. She secretly glanced at it from the corner of her eye. It was a memorial from King Qi.

You don't need to read the content, the princess knows what kind of moth her brother is messing with, and it is probably another memorial to attack the East Palace.

Before the Battle of Heyin, the King of Qi had clamored to go to the front to lead the troops.

Since the Shang Yuan Dynasty, the King of Qi has been training his servants at home every day, and even took his servants on patrol in Chang'an every day. This kind of meaningless performance art was impeached by the prince's subordinates, who accused King Qi of secretly accumulating armored soldiers for conspiracy.

Fortunately, King Qi only did physical training, and did not train his servants on weapons and armor, otherwise, the charge of privately accumulating armored soldiers would really not be able to escape.

In addition to performing performance art, King Qi often wrote letters requesting to go to the front line to fight.

Fortunately, the emperor also knew how much his son weighed, so he did not agree to King Qi's request.

King Qi even felt that his father refused to let him go out because of the prince, so he began to attack the East Palace instead.

This is King Qi's impeachment of Du Zhilang Fifth Qi for favoritism and fraud, embezzling and transporting to the front line for military pay.

Now everyone knows that Fifth Qi was recommended by the prince, and this is another attack by King Qi on the East Palace.

Princess Yanguang sighed, her elder brother Qi's attack was too indiscriminate in time and occasion, at this time attacking an important official like Wu Qi, is it because the situation in the court is not chaotic enough?

Moreover, it is enough for one's own subordinates to write a letter to this kind of thing. The dignified King Qi impeached Du Zhilang of the court, what did you ask the father to do.

After being furious, Emperor Li Heng ordered: "Return the memorial to King Qi, and order King Qi to stay at home and think about his mistakes from today on!"

Eunuch Mu hurriedly took the memorial and left. The order to punish the king of Qi needs to be passed by the political affairs hall before it can be handed over to the Hanlin scholars to draft the order.

But now the Zhengshitang, which is struggling with the front line every day, must be very happy to pass this decree, to punish King Qi who is making trouble every day.

Princess Yanguang sighed, compared to King Qi who was performing art every day, the recent performance of the East Palace was quite satisfactory, and on the contrary, he was collectively praised by the courtiers.

More officials have turned to the prince. Could it be that the battle for succession is about to come to an end so soon?
Princess Yanguang couldn't help becoming anxious. In fact, no matter who is the emperor, the princess will become the eldest princess of the empire. What she is anxious about is Shang Bo, who is the envoy of the Longyou Governor's Mansion.

The emperor opened a memorial again, and after reading the memorial, the emperor's temple jumped up again.

This is the memorial written by Wei Jiansu, the envoy of Xichuan Jiedu. The Nanzhao and Tubo coalition forces have already captured three cities on the border.

In addition to this love, bandits who believe in rice Taoism also appeared in Lingnan, and the water bandits in Jingxiang have been making trouble for more than half a year. The emperor squeezed his temples again, so he could only take up his pen and write a few words of encouragement to these local officials. , anyway, the current attitude of the imperial court is to give policy to policy, but there is no such thing as money or soldiers!
