Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 801
"Arbitrarily attacking and killing each other without giving a report, is this what a courtier should do? Are you going to kill me too?"

Emperor Huangtai's eyes were swollen from crying, there was sadness and helplessness in this cry.The Great Sui Dynasty has already declined irresistibly, and now the emperor has no majesty.I used to think that compared with Luo Chengyu Wenhua and Li Yuan, Wang Shichong was loyal and reliable, but now I realized that this is just the same as Luo Cheng and others.

Wang Shichong still had a sword in his waist and shoes on his feet.

Standing on top of the Golden Palace, I heard the emperor's accusations.

Wang Shichong knelt down with a plop.

Actually shed tears.

"Your Majesty, I was promoted by the late emperor, even if I was broken into pieces, I can't repay you. Since the late emperor left Luoyang on patrol, I have fought against the rebel army hundreds of times with only a weak army. How many times have I sacrificed my life in times of crisis? However, Yuan Wendu and others are responsible for the kindness of the king, but they have evil intentions. First, they wanted to recruit Li Mi to endanger the country. They hated me for not cooperating with them, so they were afraid and jealous, and wanted to plot harm. I am eager to save people, so I don’t have time to play. If you have bad intentions and turn your back on His Majesty, the world, the sun and the moon will all be able to testify, and my whole family will be wiped out."

Wang Shichong swore to the sky, and the oath was extremely vicious.

Even the young Emperor Huangtai almost believed it. After all, who would swear such a vicious oath?
Over there, after Wang Shichong finished speaking, he was still sitting on the ground and crying loudly, with a look of loyalty and sincerity, the scene was actually a bit touching.

Yang Tong was too stimulated today, and finally calmed down a bit, but Wang Shichong's performance made him unable to stop his eyes again, so he started crying again.

In the golden palace, the monarch and ministers cried bitterly, and then the matter passed like this.

Wang Shichong led his troops into the palace and killed the prime minister. Not only was he innocent, but he also had the merit of eliminating evil.

In order to thank this loyal minister, Emperor Huangtai issued an edict.

Wang Shichong was granted the order of minister, the governor of all internal and external military forces, and Pei Renji was granted the minister Zuo Pushe to assist Wang Shichong.

At the same time, he issued an edict to designate Yuan Wendu and others as rebels, confiscated all their families, and implicated many accomplices.

Over there, Wang Shichong was able to cut off all the dissidents at once, and since then the military and political power in Luoyang has been in his hands.

Wang Shichong immediately appointed his elder brother Wang Shiyun as the internal history order, and appointed several younger brothers as generals to take charge of the Luoyang army.

He also divided government affairs into ten heads, and each appointed his own cronies to preside over them.

He also enlisted Pei Renji and Wei Xuan, two influential people in the military circle, to give Wei Xuan the crown prince Taishi, and Pei Renji the title of Shangshu Zuopushe.

After doing this, Wang Shichong asked the emperor to issue an imperial edict, defining Li Mi as a traitor.

After completely mastering the power of the Luoyang court, Wang Shichong also gritted his teeth, opened the emperor's treasury, took out all the property of the emperor's inner treasury, rewarded the soldiers heavily, ordered them to rest and reorganize their equipment, strengthen training, and tried to compete with Li Mi Fight a turnaround.

Shangshu Zuopushe and Jin Guogong Pei Renji suggested to Wang Shichong, "Although there is still some food in Hanjiacang City, it is still sitting on the mountain. Now the periphery of Luoyang is basically lost, and the rest has become an enclave. If we can no longer If we defeat Li Mi, then we will be defeated soon, Pei is not talented, but he knows a little about military affairs, and he is willing to lead an army to be the vanguard of Linggong, and take back the Luokou warehouse for Linggong."

Wang Shichong is also very clear about his family's details now.

He has lost countless times to Li Mi's hands, but he just relied on a fierce force and the iron support of the Jianghuai soldiers to survive until now.

But the fact is that as Pei Renji said, there is not much food left.

Now the food in Cangcheng is only for the army, and the people have started to eat human flesh. If this continues, the chances of turning over are even slimmer.

But now there are two problems in wanting to turn around the battle. One is that they have been defeated for a long time and were besieged under the city of Luoyang. Now the morale of the soldiers in Luoyang is very low.

Second, there are fewer and fewer people in Luoyang City, relying on such a Luoyang City, even the source of troops has become a problem.

If ordinary people were in Wang Shichong's situation, they would have planned to surrender long ago, such as Yuan Wendu and others.

But Lao Wang refused to admit defeat, he still had an Eastern Capital in his hand, and tens of thousands of brothers under him, he thought he still had a chance to stand up.

Even if the chances are slim, it is worth fighting for.

Back then, his grandfather was just a merchant in the Western Regions. He went bankrupt in the Western Regions, so he took the risk to go to the Central Plains with the caravan, and he really made a fortune in the end.

It's a pity that he died early, and his grandmother took his father to remarry an official, so he gave him another chance.

Along the way, it is the efforts of three generations of the Wang family to be able to stand at this position.

Wang Shichong can't just waste this opportunity.

"What Pei Pushe said makes sense. We can't hold on any longer, we must take the initiative to attack, but I decided that I will personally lead the troops to destroy Li Mi."

As for how to destroy it, Wang Shichong didn't tell Pei Renji.

But a few days later, when the soldiers outside the eastern capital were reviewing and practicing, a soldier suddenly fell to the ground and convulsed, foaming at the mouth.

Everyone thought it was an illness, but when the fellow Wu next to him wanted to help him up, he stood up by himself.

But he kept rolling his eyes, and he spoke very magical words in front of countless Dongdu soldiers.

"The heavens are spirited, the earth is spirited, Zhou Gong is manifested, and you should be a soldier and fight against the thieves together!"

The ancients were quite superstitious, and they liked to ask gods and Buddhas about many unknown and incomprehensible things.

This strange scene still caused many people to be extremely surprised.

"Who is this?"

Wang Shichong asked.

Immediately someone reported that this was a rifleman named Zhang Yongtong.

"King Zheng, is this person possessed by Duke Zhou and wants to give me advice?" A general said as if he had realized something.

At this time, that Zhang Yongtong suddenly regained his sobriety, asked him what happened just now, but he didn't know anything.

A few days later, when it was time for practice again, Zhang Yongtong went crazy again, rolled his eyes again and said exactly the same thing as last time, all of which was to let them go out to fight and destroy the thieves.

Later, every other day, Zhang Yongtong will possess the body of the Great God once.

This mysterious event was soon spread throughout Luoyang City. Countless people were discussing this matter, discussing this Zhang Yongtong, and many people were thinking about the words that the possessed man who was known as Duke Zhou said .

At this time, Wang Shichong, who had been appointed as King Zheng by the emperor, stood up. He invited the most famous warlocks in Luoyang, and asked the warlocks to interpret this strange incident in front of the whole army.

So, under the witness of tens of thousands of soldiers, the famous great magician in Luoyang went to the altar to sacrifice to heaven.

After the ceremony, the sorcerer knelt on the altar and waited for instructions from heaven.

After a long time, just as the soldiers were getting impatient, the warlock also started to roll his eyes.
