Chapter 1315 Welcoming the King of Qin and Prospering the Tang Dynasty

After many twists and turns, Zhangzhou City finally fell.

Li Xuan and Ning Yayun stood more than a hundred steps away from the city, watching the last group of defenders at the top of the city kneel down and beg for surrender.

"Let's go to Zhangzhou, there is only Lizhou between you and the rebels. Are you ready?" the old man asked with a frown.

"There is nothing to prepare." Li Xuan said.

"Don't you have any feeling of being close to home?" Ning Yayun laughed.

"Chang'an is not a hometown for Gu." Li Xuan said coldly.

The majesty of the king is getting stronger and stronger!
Ning Yayun glanced at him, "The old man actually hopes to see Qin Guogong more than Qin King."

This is veiled advice: Don't be blinded by hatred.

More than ten riders came at a gallop.

"Where is Your Highness?"

The leading man got off his horse and came to salute, "Your Highness, Dou Chong was defeated at Jiagu Pass and lost."

Li Xuan stood dumbfounded.

Ning Yayun was stunned.

so fast?
Even though it was judged that Dou Zhong would definitely attack, Li Xuan never expected that he would be defeated so quickly.

"Dou Zhong led the attack, Shi Zhongtang was always nearby, the two armies fought, and within an hour, Chang'an's army collapsed."

"Dou Zhong was captured, and there are probably no more than [-] people who can escape."

It's over!

Li Xuan smiled wryly, "He lost, just like a beginner!"

The first brother went into battle and was ready to go.

The news quickly spread throughout the army.

"The rebels must have gone to Chang'an."

He Lianyan found He Lianrong, "Your Highness needs an excuse here."

"There is no excuse!" He Lianrong stroked his bald head.

"Your Highness attacked Zhangzhou too slowly, and the world will criticize it." He Lianyan said.

He Lianrong said: "That's Zhangzhou, and the defenders are from the Tang Dynasty. Your Highness is kind, and he can't bear to kill his own people, that's all."

Li Xuan had stayed under the city of Zhangzhou for too long, and according to the invincibility of the northern border army in the past, it was impossible for the world not to suspect that he was sitting on a hill watching tigers fight.

"This is a game. Chang'an wants to sit back and watch His Highness and Shi Zhongtang both lose. But his family is short of food, and finally has no choice but to attack. And Shi Zhongtang actually wants to sit and watch us fight Chang'an, but it's a pity that His Highness just doesn't want to fight Xiongzhou. So Chang'an did not dare to attack, and the two armies are at peace."

Han Ji smiled very proudly, "Chang'an encountered enemies on both sides, Li Mi definitely wanted to defeat the Duke, but he knew that this was an extravagant wish. So he turned the knife around and let Dou Chong charge towards Shi Zhongtang."

"Remember, Your Highness is kind." He Lianrong emphasized again, "It's not that His Highness won't attack Bazhou, but... what did His Highness say last time?"

"It's all a family, why bother!"

"Yes, order Bao Dong to spread the words so that everyone will know about them."

In a word, His Highness's reputation must be spotless.

Whether it is physical or moral, Li Xuan has no obsession with cleanliness.

After hearing the news, he was looking at Chang'an from afar.

"The city of Chang'an, which has not fallen for hundreds of years, is lost."

Li Xuan patted the top of the wall, and suddenly a wine bag was handed over to him.

Wang Laoer smiled and said, "Your Highness, drink."

"it is good!"

Li Xuan took the wine bag, raised his head and took a big gulp.

Jiang He'er said not far away: "Who said Wang Laoer is stupid?"

"It's a fool to say he's stupid." He Lianyan was so busy that she tried to comfort her best friend, "The next big battle is coming. The rebels have been operating in southern Xinjiang for many years, and this battle is not easy. "

"If it's not easy to fight, you have to fight." Jiang He'er said: "His Highness said that only when he defeats Shi Ni and he walks into Chang'an City will he have a clear conscience. When he faces the world, he will have a clear conscience."

"It's almost like fighting the country again." He Lianyan sighed: "Your Highness, you must have a clear conscience!"

Li Xuan drank his wine and said: "When I was alone in Chang'an City, Cao Ying often said that Chang'an betrayed my father back then, and if I was alone, I would step on Chang'an."

"What should I do if I step on it?" Wang Laoer ate the jerky.

"If it collapses, it will collapse!" Li Xuan took a sip of his drink, "Standing alone in Zhangzhou, I just don't want to bear the notoriety of attacking Guanzhong."

Guanzhong, that is the land of the Li family's Longxing, and it is also the foundation of the emperor.

To take the lead in fighting is to start a civil war first.

"If Gu Ruo breaks Zhangzhou and then attacks Lizhou, Shi Zhongtang will definitely face a formidable enemy and has no intention of fighting Dou Zhong. But the next step will be very difficult!"

Li Xuan said with a smile: "In the next battle between Gu and Shi Zhongtang, the Jiaguguan army may stab Gu from the back at any time. What will you do to Gu?"

Wang Lao Er asked, "Has your Highness regretted it?"

Li Xuan shook his head, "I don't regret it, but I feel a little disappointed."

Wang Laoer swallowed the jerky, "Actually, I'm just overthinking."

"Huh?" Li Xuan looked at him.

"Your Highness can do whatever you want, why worry about these things."

This fool... Li Xuan smiled and said: "The name is justified, Gu must win righteousness."

"If you can't win, you can't win." Wang Lao Er shook his head.

"What if the crowd rose up and attacked?" Li Xuan teased him.

"Then fight." Wang Laoer said seriously: "Wherever your Highness points out, I will fight!"

Li Xuan's eyes gradually softened.

Wang Lao Er got up, "It's just that Your Highness, don't get entangled anymore. Master Ning said that all diseases are caused by emotions. I..." Wang Lao Er hesitated, "I just want to see His Highness can... grow up Life is a hundred years old. So, don't get entangled."

Li Xuan stretched out his hand, Wang Er Er didn't move, Li Xuan touched the top of his head, "Okay."

……

Feng Chen, governor of Lizhou, was a little troubled.

"Jiaguguan is lost, the rebels must go to Chang'an, what about Lizhou?"

Sima Lin was sitting there with his waist slumped, "Dou Chong was defeated too quickly, but Chang'an is a strong city..."

"Fortified City?" Feng Chen sneered, "Almost 20 troops under Dou Zhong's command have been defeated. How can Chang'an's few troops hold it? It's almost the same with another person."

"Who is it?" Lin Xian asked.

"Huang Chunhui!"

Lin Xian smiled wryly, "But Your Majesty is very suspicious of Huang Chunhui, how can you entrust your safety to this person?"

"Zhang Huan is an old fox, and he doesn't have the prestige to take care of it, so the old man thought that Chang'an would definitely escape."

"But where can they go?" Lin Xian asked.

"Shu land!"

Feng Chen said: "The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky. There are also fertile lands in Shu, but because it is partial to a corner, it is not an emperor's foundation. But at present, those nobles in Chang'an only want to survive, so why do they care about the emperor's foundation?"

"If they leave, to whom will the world be handed over?" Lin Xian's eyes were slightly cold, "We must keep the supervisor?"

"Both the north and the south are lost, the prison country, what kind of country is the prison?" Feng Chen paced with his hands behind his back, "Our Lizhou has separated the north and the south, what will Shi Ni do? Attack?"

"My lord, it's the northern army that's killing me!" Lin Xian smiled wryly, "The northern army has suddenly exerted force recently, and the old man asserted that Zhangzhou will not be guaranteed. If Zhangzhou is taken down, that King of Qin will definitely stare at me in Lizhou. "

"He's waiting and watching!" Feng Chen said, "He's waiting for a big fight between Chang'an and Shi Ni, otherwise my Lizhou is probably in turmoil right now."

"What can he do if he doesn't wait and see?" Lin Xian said with a sneer, "I dare say that if Li Xuan led his army to fight Shi Ni, the one from Chang'an would dare to stab him."

"No one in the world believes in that man's integrity." Feng Chen sighed, "Now that Shi Ni has turned the tables, the scouts have said that even our Lizhou people are going to join Shi Ni. This trend has been overturned!"

"When Dou Zhong is defeated, everyone in the world can see clearly that Tang Guozuo may not succeed. At such a time, it is serious to find a way out for oneself."

Lin Xian sighed, "What shall we do?"

There was a long silence in the room.

"Zhan, we are not opponents." Lin Xian analyzed: "This old man is willing to die for the Tang Dynasty, but all the f*cking emperors have run away, who will this old man be loyal to?"

"You also have a different heart?" Feng Chen looked at Lin Xian coldly.

"This old man didn't give birth to a strange heart, but this old man is just a little at a loss." Lin Xian pointed outside, "It's not just this old man, the entire army and civilians in Lizhou are at a loss. The emperor ran away, he lost the world, should we help him pick it up?" ?”

"That's Datang!" Feng Chen said resolutely, "Even if my head is severed, I will still roar at rebellion."

Lin Xian sighed: "Then we have three options now, one of which is to submit to the rebels. Naturally, this option cannot be chosen."

Feng Chen's face paled, Lin Xian continued: "The second is to seek refuge with Li Xuan."

"That's also a rebellion!" Feng Chen said stubbornly: "Your Majesty said, he is a rebel. The so-called filial piety to the emperor's son is all lies."

Lin Xian said: "Then, there is only one way left, stick to it, no matter who comes to attack, stick to the way."

"Emissary." A small official came in, "Shi Ni sent an envoy."

The messenger is a civil servant.

"The emperor ran away." The emissary said firmly: "He took his harem beauties and ran away with money. The nobles in Chang'an City also ran away. Li Tang, it's over!"

Even after guessing this situation, Feng Chen and Lin Xian still looked pale when they learned the details.

The hopelessness of helplessness made them laugh miserably.

"Hahahaha!" Feng Chen laughed and said, "It's gone, but I'm still waiting!"

The messenger said calmly: "If Dou Chong doesn't attack, to be honest, there is nothing our army can do. But if he comes out, this is God's will. God's will is in the Duke, understand?"

The envoy said confidently: "The Duke ordered the old man to come to surrender. The Duke said that if he surrenders at this moment, he can be made a Marquis. All the fertile land around Chang'an is now unowned, five thousand mu per person!"

This reward can be said to be rich.

"Don't think about who you will be loyal to. The Duke said that Li Mi and his son are stupid. After more than ten years, the people who have tormented the Tang Dynasty are in dire straits. People in the world will not expect Li to return again. In this world, the virtuous live! "

This is right.

Seeing that the two were silent, the envoy became more energetic, "You two surrender now, and you are still a hero. Tell the truth, old man! The Duke wants to control Lizhou and keep the northern army in the north. Shi Gongming's men are attacking Daizhou. Once you win Daizhou, you will be able to connect with Lizhou. In this way, the big thing is settled."

Lizhou used to be Daizhou.

"Shi Gongming is still attacking Daizhou?" Lin Xian was stunned.

The messenger was a little embarrassed, "The old dog is watching! If there is no result here, he can attack for a lifetime."

No one in this world is an idiot.

If you want others to take a chestnut from the fire for you, it also depends on whether you have that fate.

"Tell Shi Ni!" Feng Chen said coldly, "Lizhou is the Lizhou of Datang!"

The envoy sneered, "The old man is waiting to see what happens to the envoy."

The messenger is gone.

Feng Chen said to Li Xian: "To be honest, the emperor fled, and I was very disappointed. In my opinion, he should at least stay in Guanzhong and recruit warriors to deal with the rebels."

"He doesn't have the guts!" Lin Xian said disdainfully.

"Yes!" The old man actually thought about taking refuge in...

Lin Xian was taken aback, "Your envoy..."

"But even if I want to take refuge, I will take refuge in Li Xuan." Feng Chen shook his head, "Everyone knows that Li Xuan must be the son of the emperor. But since the old man has a heavy responsibility, unless the court removes the old man's governor of Lizhou Otherwise, the old man will guard the Great Tang for a day until he is defeated and killed!"

Lin Xian got up and walked over, "Kelizhou is under attack from two sides, and cannot defend."

"One day counts as one day." Feng Chen resolutely said, "If the city is broken, you can escape into the city and see what happens next, before discussing your actions. However, the old man has something to ask."

"My envoy, please tell me."

"Tell the world about the old man's unyielding!"

"Shijun was unyielding alone, but he involved the soldiers and civilians of Lizhou in a killing that shouldn't have happened."

"you!"

Just as Feng Chen was about to turn around and scold him, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back.

He slowly turned around. Behind him, Lin Xian drew out his dagger and said with a smirk: "The Great Tang Dynasty is over, understand? If you want to be buried with the Great Tang, just go. But you should not have dragged this old man in."

"You..." Feng Chen pointed at him, "You once swore allegiance to..."

"The old man is loyal to himself!"

Lin Xian clapped his hands, and several confidantes came in, followed by Shi Zhongtang's emissary.

The envoy walked up to Feng Chen, and said with a smile, "Why did this come from? I forgot to tell you that before coming, the Duke's secret agent had already agreed with Lin Sima to dedicate the city."

Lin Xian said: "The old man is going to gather the army, the envoy hastened to report and send the army in."

"Don't worry, the old man has sent someone there."

Feng Chen died, and it was said that he was assassinated.But the fire could not be wrapped in paper, and the news of the messenger from the south spread to the army.

Captain Zhang De gritted his teeth and said: "That traitor has become a thief. You go out of the city quietly, go to report to His Highness, and implore His Highness to send troops into the city to suppress the rebellion!"

More than ten sergeants responded in unison, and the leader of the team was saying: "Lieutenant, are we on the side of King Qin?"

Zhang De said: "The emperor ran away, there is no egg. But the Tang Dynasty cannot be destroyed! He ran away, and the King of Qin is still here. Welcome the King of Qin, and promote the Great Tang!"
