The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1229 The Four Armies Gather
Chengdu Fu Road.

Yazhou.

The mountain where Duan Qilin was forced to jump off the cliff to his death.

There is a stunning nun here.

Although she has no blue hair, she is still gorgeous in the world.

Sitting alone on a cliff in a goose-yellow monk robe.There was a little sorrow, a little sigh, and a little pity on the face, which seemed very complicated.

Undoubtedly, this nun was Yu Linglong.

After all, she still couldn't let Duan Qilin go.

Perhaps a long time ago, she actually regarded herself as Duan Qilin's woman.Even she herself thought that Duan Qilin would not let her down in the end.

This may not be called love, but it is also a kind of habitual dependence.

There are thousands of men in the world, Yu Linglong never thought that she would be able to choose other men besides Duan Qilin in this life.

However, Duan Qilin wanted to give her to Zhao Bing as his concubine, which made her extremely disappointed.It also made her truly realize that she is just Duan Qilin's chess piece, and not a special chess piece.

Even so, Duan Qilin was still kind to her after all.

Beside Yu Linglong, some paper money and incense candles were quietly burning.

She just looked at the cliff and was in a daze, without saying anything.

It took a long time before she got up slowly, and finally opened her mouth, whispering: "You are dead... I can also be born again?"

In the past, there was always Duan Qilin's shadow in her life, but now, that shadow should disappear with Duan Qilin's passing.

He was no longer in this world, and the relationship between the two of them, which had already been severed, was naturally even more insignificant.

The stunning nun slowly descended the mountain.

The footsteps seem to be getting lighter and lighter as they walk.

She used to live for Duan Qilin, but now, she can finally live for herself.

……

In the blink of an eye, nearly a month has passed.

During this period of time, Zhao Dongting just stayed with the girls and children in the palace, or dealt with government affairs in the imperial study, and at the same time did not forget to train Li Goudan.

He was even more attentive to Li Goudan's training than he was to Zhu Haiwang and Zhu Hecong.

This is not only because he has high hopes for Li Goudan, but it is also related to Li Goudan's age.

The younger you are, the easier it is to be looked after.This is a natural thing.

Western Xia.

The soldiers of the Xiangqing Army Division and the Gansu Army Division have already rushed to Lintao Road.

They were different from the other four major army divisions. As soon as they arrived at Lintao Road, there was Huijun on the side of Lanzhou, and the two armies camped vertically.

Now, He Liancheng and Qu Rujian led the Xixia Forbidden Army and the Feitian Army to the side of Lanzhou.

As soon as they arrived, they immediately gathered towards the camps of Gansu Army Division and Xiangqing Army Division.

The two forces of Xixia can be described as distinct.

The royalist faction composed of the Xixia Forbidden Army, the Flying Army, the Gansu Army Division, and the Xiangqing Army Division had no scruples at all, and tightly hugged into a group.

However, the anti-emperor faction composed of Baimaqiang Town Army Division, Heishan Weifu Army Division, Heishui Town Yan Army Division, and Xiping Army Division seems to be doing things independently.

Until now, the officers and soldiers of the four major armies are still stationed separately, and there is no sign of communicating with each other.

He Liancheng and Qu Rujian are nominally the chief and deputy commanders of the Xixia army.

In fact, if they want to rebel, the Tuoba family, She Tuo family and other families can choose to break with Li Xiushu completely at this time.

But they didn't.

Even on the bright side, the major military commanders still respect the positions of Heliancheng and Qu Rujian as deputy commanders.

As soon as He Liancheng and Qu Rujian arrived, the four major armies sent generals to their barracks.

Only the chief generals of the four major military divisions such as Tuoba Wu did not come to pay a visit to He Liancheng and Qu Rujian in person, this kind of intention is also obvious.

The heads of the four major families and many important clan members are now in the Zhongxing Mansion, seemingly as ministers, but in fact they are hostages.Of course they don't want to send sheep into the mouth of tigers themselves.

If even the guys in charge of the army are controlled by He Liancheng and Qu Rujian, then the soldiers they lead will be leaderless.At that time, trying to bring down the Empress would only be reduced to a joke.

But He Liancheng and Qu Rujian just pretended to be confused.

For the generals sent by the four major military divisions, they are all good hospitality, and there is nothing to criticize in the politeness on the surface.

It wasn't until the generals were about to leave that Helian City let them convey his command.

He said that the imperial army he led had just arrived at Lintao Road, and the horses and horses were exhausted, so they had to rest for a whole day, so that the soldiers from Baimaqiang Town, Heishan Weifu, Heishui Town Yan, and Xiping Military Division rushed to Lizhou West Road first. to the territory.Then it went straight to the Chengdu Mansion of the Song Dynasty.

The generals of each division are all taking orders, only saying that they must convey the commander's order to the main general.

But no one knows what they think in their hearts.

After the generals of the four major armies left the barracks one after another, He Liancheng and Qu Rujian waved back the generals in the tent to discuss matters in the tent.

He Liancheng smiled and asked Qu Rujian: "General Qu, you said we let the people from the four major military divisions take the lead, will they just turn against each other like this?"

"Reverse or not."

Qu Rujian shook his head and chuckled, his eyes were firm and he said: "Anyway, we are not afraid. Don't you understand what the emperor means, General Helian?"

He Liancheng said quietly: "But I have some speculations. I always feel that it is strange that the emperor suddenly wants to send troops to attack the Song Dynasty. She told the two of us to remember to beware of the four major armies. I think... I am afraid that the attack on the Song Dynasty is secondary. This opportunity to force against the four major military commanders, and then destroy them, just like Pang Hongguang and others, is the main thing."

Qu Rujian nodded lightly, "I think so too. I just don't know, what choice will the four major military commanders make?"

This time it was He Liancheng's turn to laugh, "Didn't you just say that, whether they retaliate or not, we are not afraid."

"That is."

Qu Rujian raised his eyebrows and said, "Only I still have doubts."

"What doubts?"

"Is the emperor really going to start a war with Song?"

He Liancheng sighed softly, "This matter is indeed very important. If the emperor has no intention of going to war with Song, and the four major military divisions turn against each other, then we will not be able to use the power of the Song army to destroy the four major military divisions. And if the emperor really intends In the war with the Song State, the four major military commanders are not in agreement with us, so they will definitely not exert their full strength. Even if we do not rebel, we will hardly be the opponent of the Song Army..."

Qu Rujian looked deeply at He Liancheng, "Then what are your plans?"

He Liancheng shook his head and said: "For the time being, I haven't dared to make a conclusion. We can't see the situation clearly, so the two of us will follow the emperor's wishes. Now that I have asked the four major military commanders to go to the border of Chengdu first, what are they? Either way or not, the result should be seen soon. I think, if they make any changes, the emperor will definitely issue another order to the two of us."

Qu Rujian frowned and nodded lightly, "Maybe only the emperor can see the situation clearly now."

I just don't know how the two people who are discussing here for Li Xiushu's mind would feel if they knew that Li Xiushu included them.

What Li Xiushu wants is not only to put down the four major families, but also to make Xixia a subsidiary state of Song Dynasty!

This point, let alone He Liancheng and Qu Rujian, even those like Zhongsun Qifu, couldn't possibly see through it and want to get it.

On the following day only.

The four major military commanders, who hadn't had much movement before, suddenly had movement.

They stationed in various places on Lintao Road set off one after another, but instead of doing their own thing as before, they all gathered towards Lintao City.

This has the meaning of going to Lizhou West Road together with the army.

But everyone understands that their meeting has a great meaning.

Tuobaxiong, Wudeng and others live deeply in the Zhongxing Mansion, and it is not easy to be able to promote an alliance.Now it is impossible to remotely control the number of troops.

Opposition is inevitable.As for when to rebel, it has to be decided by Tuoba Wu and other generals.

They are the commanders-in-chief of the various armies, and they are also the backbone of the armies of the major families.

It was evening, and the troops and horses of the four major armies set up camp outside the city of Lintao Prefecture.

In the barracks of Tuoba Wu's Heishan Weifu Army Division, several groups of fast horses left the camp one after another.

Then not long after, the fast horses came back again.

Only the armor is still the original armor, but the person wearing the armor is not the original person.

Wuge, the commander of Baimaqiang's army division, She Tuoba, the commander of Yan's army division in Heishui town, and Sikongshe, the commander of Xiping army division, all came to De Tuobawu military camp by means of a golden cicada's plan to escape their shells.

In order to avoid the eyeliners placed by the empress in the army, they are well-intentioned.
