I am not Yuan Shu

Chapter 180 There is someone who may be able to help us

Looking at Liu Kui coughing, Yuan Shu frowned, feeling that Liu Kui's health was not good, so he ordered Cheng Li beside him to find a good doctor to treat Liu Kui, and then began to plan the formal action for tomorrow night.

He decided to wait until about half an hour before the official operation to fully inform everyone of the details of the operation. Before that, everything would be kept confidential. The more than 300 people who already knew about it would become commanders at all levels of this operation, and would rush towards a glorious future with him along with their strong soldiers.

In order to make everyone full of strength and easier to command, starting from the next morning, Yuan Shu used military training, agricultural training and other excuses to arrange the 6,000 people who would participate in the operation to the military training camp in the northeast corner of Liangzhuang.

Then, Yuan Shu arranged for the logistics department to provide them with enough food and meat, and for the first time, he also provided them with fruits, which were basically not provided to them normally, to help them replenish their energy and fill up their energy tanks in preparation for a full-scale outbreak at night.

While reorganizing the troops, Yuan Shu closely monitored the situation in Luoyang City.

Yuan's spies and Cheng Li's spies were spread all over Luoyang City, gathering information and observing the situation to make sure that Luoyang was still stable and without any setbacks, making it convenient for them to do their work.

At noon, Yuan Feng secretly came to Liangzhuang, met with Liu Kui, expressed his loyalty to Liu Kui and made himself familiar with him, and symbolically obtained permission from Liu Kui to depose and enthrone the emperor.

Then, the father and son began to make the final confirmation of the action.

The operation was divided into three phases.

The first stage is to capture the twelve gates of Luoyang City.

Yuan Shu learned that Yuan Feng had already met with five city gate marquises and confirmed that they would assist the Yuan family tonight, open the city gates to let Yuan's troops in, and assist Yuan's armed forces to capture the remaining seven city gates, thereby completely closing Luoyang City and cutting off Luoyang City's internal and external traffic.

Yuan Shu led his men to enter from the Valley Gate, and Yuan Feng led his men to enter from the Kaiyang Gate.

As long as the speed is fast enough and the action is swift enough, it is a foregone conclusion that all twelve city gates will fall into Yuan's control within half an hour.

As long as there are no unexpected events such as aliens landing on Earth, the success of the first phase of the operation is inevitable and there will be no problems.

Next comes the second phase.

Yuan Shu led his troops to attack Shuoping Gate, and Yuan Feng led his troops to attack Canglong Que Gate, entering the North Palace and South Palace respectively.

Because under normal circumstances, there are only more than a hundred people guarding Shuoping Gate and Canglong Que Gate. It is difficult for the Yuan family, which has dozens of times more troops, to be unable to enter.

Yuan Shu also said that after he got enough weapons from the Luoyang arsenal, he would send a group of troops to help Yuan Feng, to help him increase the siege force and reduce the possibility of accidents.

Yuan Feng agreed with this.

The third stage is the harvest stage.

Yuan Shu killed the eunuchs in the North Palace and captured Liu Hong, while Yuan Feng killed the eunuchs in the South Palace and captured other members of the royal family.

Brothers fight tigers together, father and son fight together in battle, Yuan Feng and Yuan Shu, father and son, will work together to seize the sweetest fruits of victory.

There will also be action elsewhere in the meantime.

In the most elite Northern Army, Yuan Shu and Yuan Feng have already contacted Infantry Captain Dong Xuan and Yue Cavalry Captain Wang Chong. After the operation begins, these two people will kill Northern Army Lieutenant Cao Tong and Archery Captain Yao Xu, and eliminate the eunuchs' power from the Northern Army.

Then the two men will split their troops into two groups. Dong Xuan will lead his troops to support Yuan Shu, and Wang Chong will lead his troops to support Yuan Feng.

Once they enter the North Palace and the South Palace, Yuan Shu and Yuan Feng will face defenses from the Huben Army and the Yulin Army.

They needed to make every effort to defeat these two forces to ensure that the military forces belonging to the eunuchs were completely eliminated, and strive to complete all operations before dawn the next morning to achieve final victory.

The next morning, when the officials and people of Luoyang wake up from their sleep, they will be surprised to find that the emperor has been replaced and a new emperor has ascended the throne.

The eunuch dictatorship is over!
Good times are coming!
The action plan was very plain and simple, and overall there were not many waves. It was just carried out step by step. It was the solid foundation accumulated by the Yuan family for several generations who had worked in the central and local governments. Because of these, this action seemed even somewhat natural.

To be honest, this feeling was still very wonderful for Yuan Feng. He had never thought that one day he would be able to do something with his son that might seem outrageous to outsiders.

To depose and enthronize an emperor is bound to be controversial and full of mixed reviews for a minister. Even if there are legitimate reasons, it is inevitable that others will criticize and look at them strangely. After making up his mind, Yuan Feng originally wanted to do this alone.

But he didn't expect that his younger son was so competitive and awesome that he could actually compete with his father in such matters and build up a military force with considerable strength.

This made Yuan Feng unable to help but start imagining the future after the operation was successful.

After the new monarch ascends the throne, the two main meritorious officials, Yuan Feng and Yuan Shu, will be given a status superior to other officials. Yuan Feng is not so bad, as he is already the Grand Coachman. At most, he can be promoted to one of the Three Dukes, thus achieving the pinnacle of the Yuan family with two dukes.

Although he did not really want such a situation to happen, there would be nothing he could do if it really happened. He was already one of the Nine Ministers, and if he did not become one of the Three Dukes, what else could he do?

Prime Minister?

It’s easy to talk to him, but it’s a bit difficult to talk to Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu had not yet come of age and had not officially entered officialdom, so he could not be rewarded according to the usual practice. He could be given a title, but a title alone could not reward Yuan Shu for his great contribution in supporting the emperor.

In name, Yuan Feng is the commander-in-chief of this operation, but whether in terms of the content or strength of the operation, Yuan Shu is more like Yuan Feng's partner rather than a superior.

Yuan Feng utilized the strength accumulated by several generations of the Yuan family, while Yuan Shu took a different approach based on this foundation and used a team he had assembled.

Yuan Shu can really take half of the credit for following the emperor.

How should such a great contribution be rewarded?

Yuan Feng didn't know what Liu Kui was thinking, or maybe Liu Kui hadn't thought about it at all. What he was thinking about most now was probably the issue of success or failure, rather than the issue of reward.

Yuan Feng originally wanted to ask Yuan Shu how he thought about his future, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that there was no point in being so anxious now. If the action would not succeed, it would be a joke to think so much now.

Take one step at a time!

Yuan Feng was about to leave Liangzhuang, but when he reached the gate of Liangzhuang, Yuan Shu suddenly came on horseback and stopped him.

Yuan Shu felt that the plan was perfect and there was nothing to add, but at the specific implementation level, there was still the possibility of some variables between the second stage and the third stage.

"I'm still a little worried. It's not difficult to enter Luoyang City, but it's a little difficult to enter the palace city. I'm more worried that we won't be able to enter the palace city smoothly. It would be great if there were someone in the palace city who could help us from inside and outside."

Yuan Feng shook his head.

"There are only a hundred or so soldiers guarding the gate. How can we not get in if we are careful and attentive? Besides, Luoyang City is under our control. Even if we cannot get in for the time being, it won't be a big problem."

"Although this is the case, father, this is an action with no way out for us father and son. If we fail... Although we said that Third Uncle should stay away from Luoyang to save the clan, if the uprising fails, can the clan really be saved?"

Yuan Shu's question stumped Yuan Feng.

Yuan Feng lowered his head and thought about it, and felt that what Yuan Shu asked made some sense.

If their mutiny had really failed, could the Yuan clan really have survived?
It's just self-consolation.

If they were really defeated, the correct thing to do would be for Yuan Wei to quickly lead his clan south to Kairun, and escape to Jiaozhou before the eunuchs' hunting team arrived, or simply escape to Vietnam, so that they could have a chance of survival.

Yuan Feng looked at Yuan Shu.

"Does my son have any ideas?"

Yuan Shu nodded.

"There is someone who may be able to help us."
