Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 281 Establishing the Military Spirit
When Tang Xuanzong fled to Jincheng County to rest, Li Fei also crossed the Yellow River with [-] Anton cavalry and came to the Guihua area to rest. It is estimated that he will arrive at Maweiyi in one day.

At this time, the information finally came.

As Li Fei expected, Ge Shuhan was defeated in a disastrous defeat at Tongguan City, and Tang Xuanzong fled with Concubine Yang and others to abandon Chang'an City.Li Fei remembered that historically, the Mutiny at Maweiyi took place at night, which meant that he still had a day and a night.

Immediately, Li Fei summoned all the generals and had something to say.

"Presumably, these days, everyone has been wondering. What is the purpose of leading you all the way? Now I can tell you." Li Fei looked around at the generals present, mainly Lu Xin, Wu Sheng, and others. Mao Youde, the dog-headed military division.

Everyone listened.

"I just got the exact news that the rebel army has captured Tongguan. Your Majesty took the imperial concubine, prince and grandson to abandon Chang'an City and fled." Li Fei said, looking around at the crowd.

"So, Datang is in danger!" Lu Xin and others said in shock.

"I believe everyone has the bottom line. I risked my life to meet His Majesty more than two years ago. An Lushan had ambitions and hoped that His Majesty would limit Anlushan's military power. However, His Majesty did not believe it and let Anlushan be alone. I led the Jiedu envoy of the three towns, and then I left Chang'an City and took up the post at the Protectorate of Andong. After the Anlu Mountain rebellion, I went all the way south, crossed the Yellow River, captured Luoyang, the eastern capital, and proclaimed myself emperor in Luoyang. At this time, defend Tongguan, It is equivalent to defending the Tang Dynasty. General Feng Changqing guarded Luoyang, the eastern capital. Although he failed to hold it in the end, relying on [-] untrained new troops, he fought bloody battles with hundreds of thousands of anti-army elites, killing and injuring countless anti-armies Hearing that Luoyang had been lost, General Gao Xianzhi resolutely abandoned Shanzhou, Lingwu, and retreated to Tongguan. The army had just entered Tongguan, and an anti-army surprise army also came. Under the city of Tongguan, the facts proved that General Gao Xianzhi's decision to retreat to Tongguan was equivalent to saving the Tang Dynasty. However, the eunuch Bian Lingcheng framed Gao Xianzhi and named the two generals of Changqing, and asked His Majesty to order the two generals to be killed. Persuading His Majesty not to believe the villain's words, killing Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing two generals will chill the hearts of the soldiers, but unfortunately His Majesty did not accept it, and His Majesty still killed the two generals like this! The matter of Old General Ge Shuhan , I also persuaded Your Majesty that the old general should not be forced to go out to fight under any circumstances. However, His Majesty still did not accept it. So much so that it finally led to the situation of Datang today!"

"The ultimate purpose of my saying this is not to show how incompetent the imperial court is, but how wise I, Li Fei, are. If I tell everyone the real reason for the Tang Dynasty's disaster today, what I will say next is my purpose."

"The traitor Yang Guozhong deceived the saints, corrupted the government, brought disaster to the country and the people, and the people hated him. Even An Lushan's rebellion was in the name of killing the traitor Yang Guozhong. The traitor Yang Guozhong really deserved to be cut to death, but my foster mother Yang Guifei But innocent!"

"I, Li Fei, was originally an unknown person. I have been taken care of by my adoptive mother, Concubine Yang Gui, to protect me. My foster mother, Concubine Yang Gui, is just like my biological mother!"

"Today's turmoil in the Tang Dynasty, some people say that my adoptive mother, Concubine Yang Gui, confused Your Majesty, made him lust for beauty, ignore government affairs, and indulge in extravagance and pleasure. This is really ridiculous. How can a person's laziness be blamed on women. In the 24th year of Kaiyuan, His Majesty let Li Linfu take the post of prime minister, and then began to neglect the government affairs. The prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, who was originally a four-year term, but Li Linfu did it for nearly 20 years, probably because he can help His Majesty handle most of the government affairs. Kaiyuan 28 My adoptive mother only entered the palace as a noble concubine in [-], and she has been aloof from the world."

"I won't mention some rumors, everyone knows it well. As a subject, it's wrong to judge the king, but I just want to say that my adoptive mother Yang Guifei did not make any mistakes. In any case, I can't blame my righteous mother for the chaos in the Tang Dynasty today. Mother Yang Guifei's head!"

"I have already received news that Prince Li Heng will join forces with the Imperial Army to launch a mutiny at Mawei Post, in the name of killing the traitor Yang Guozhong and my adoptive mother Yang Guifei."

"Damn Yang Guozhong, not to mention the crown prince and the Imperial Army, I, Li Fei, want to kill them too. But my stepmother is not wrong, I, Li Fei, am a grateful person, and I will never allow anyone to hurt my stepmother, whoever hurts my stepmother, It is my mortal enemy of Li Fei, not even the crown prince!"

"My purpose this time is to save my adoptive mother, and to help the court destroy the rebel An Lushan!"

"I sent troops to Mawei Station, or clashed with the crown prince and the imperial army. If there are opponents, they think that I, Li Fei, are a traitor. You can bring it up now, and you don't have to follow me to Mawei Station. I beg everyone!" Li Fei finished speaking in one breath, and watched everyone's expressions.

Lu Xin, Wu Sheng and other generals looked at each other in shock.

"My life, Wu Sheng, was saved by Master Jiedu, and because of Master Jiedu, I am here today. I am only loyal to Master Jiedu when I go up the mountain of swords and down the sea of ​​fire." Wu Sheng was the first to recover. The court was chilled, and he only knew Li Fei in his heart, so he said solemnly.

"Master Jiedu attaches great importance to love and righteousness, which is admirable. Mao Youde is also willing to follow Lord Jiedu, and he will never hesitate to die." Mao Youde originally worked with Zhan Youwei to engage in law and order, but more than two years later, The law and order in the Anton Protectorate Mansion had already been completely stabilized, but Li Fei had a military advisor by his side, so Mao Youde was appointed as the military advisor.Mao Youde used to be the master of Jing Zhaoyin in Chang'an City, and he saw more darkness than anyone else. He also established himself with a sense of tact and fun. He knew that the only way forward in this life was to follow Li Fei, so he had long made up his mind to be with Li Fei. The road went dark.

The statements of Wu Sheng and Mao Youde were within Li Fei's expectation, mainly because of Lu Xin, who was originally the actual controller of the Anton Governor's Mansion.

Lu Xin sighed, and expressed his steadfastness: "If what the Lord Jiedu Envoy said is true, the Crown Prince is going to mutiny at Mawei Post, and the Prince is a traitor. My life, Lu Xin, was also saved by the Jiedu Envoy. Everyone can see the achievements of Lord Jiedushi in the Protectorate of Andong. The rebel An Lushan rebelled, and the world was in chaos. Only the people of the Anton Metropolis under the governance of Lord Jiedu Envoy will be protected, and I, Lu Xin, have long been convinced by Lord Jiedu Envoy, so I naturally hope to follow Lord Jiedu Envoy in everything, and I will never regret it!"

"We are also willing to swear to the death to follow Lord Jiedushi, go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire, ten deaths without regret!" The other generals, big and small, also expressed their opinions.

Li Fei smiled with satisfaction, his hard work over the past two years was not in vain.

Li Fei's move was to gain the loyalty of Anton's iron cavalry and let them make a choice when he, Li Fei and the prince were in conflict.

In fact, Li Fei was worrying too much, the prince was only a prince after all, and in the eyes of everyone, it was treason for a prince to dare to mutiny.Moreover, Anton's iron cavalry came from the Andong Protectorate's Mansion, and the Andong Protectorate's Mansion, because of the barriers of the Khitan and Xi people, Anlu Mountain also deliberately blocked it, and the imperial court did not pay attention to it for a long time. In Chengyiguo, the entire Anton Protectorate's Mansion is much more unfamiliar with the imperial court than the people in other border areas.Not to mention the great changes that Li Fei brought to Andong Protectorate after he came to Andong Protectorate. The people lived happily and peacefully.

In the case of the will of the people in the Anton Governor's Mansion, Li Fei is equivalent to the actual 'king' of the Andong Governor's Mansion!The people's loyalty to Li Fei is definitely far more than that of the unfamiliar Tang court.

Even if Lu Xin or any general opposed Li Fei, the ordinary soldiers under their command would definitely not follow them to oppose Li Fei, because they all knew that the Anton Governor's Mansion could not do without Li Fei, this is Li Fei confidence.

"Okay! After resting for the night, everyone, follow me to Mawei Station tomorrow morning!" After establishing the morale of the army, Li Fei no longer hesitated.
