Princess Consort of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 361
Li Longji has been out of school for a long time, but has been keeping a low profile.

Exactly the same as Yao Chong.

In the past six months, Yao Chong rarely appeared in the public eye except for taking a Le Ren as his concubine.

Wu Dan also knew very little about the two.

Shen Sanwen and the princess also believed in Wudan, otherwise he would not have entered the palace that day, nor would he have stayed in Luoyang City after the rebellion broke out in Jinling City.

A few days later, the exact news of Jinling's rebellion came. It was indeed Li Longji, Yao Chong and others who brought the troops under their control, killed the local governor and state officials, and took control of the state capital.

In the name of Li Tang Zhengtong, Li Longji accused Princess Taiping of stealing Li Tang's country, and got the support of many antiques in Jinling.

It doesn't work if you don't support it, the knife rests on your neck.

Shen Sanwen now also understands that those things in the army were also done by Yao Chong. He never thought of being under others, and he only wanted to win or lose with Cui Xuan. From the battle of governance to family and country, it is strange .

This kind of people who disregard the world's reputation and suffering, only for their own talent and life goals, are really disgusting.

The princess called a group of ministers to discuss countermeasures.

Black-toothed Changzhi's soldiers are naturally the closest, but General Black-toothed has sent a letter not long ago that he is seriously ill and has no good generals.

He had to call Zhang Yang over.

Wang Xiaojie couldn't move, and Wang Fangyi wasn't serious about moving. Today's empress is really afraid that he will directly mix with Li Longji.

Still feel relieved.

The soldiers can be transferred from Hei Chi Chang's place. Although they are not as smooth as his own soldiers, they will not fail. After all, Zhang Yang and Hei Chi Changzhi still have a recommendation friendship, and Hei Chi Changzhi will not embarrass him.

Zhang Yang took the imperial amulet and personal guards and planned to go north.

Man'er sees him off.

"Brother Yang, you must be careful when you go this time! If you are not your own soldier, don't make any trouble. Although Li Longji is the empress' nephew, you don't have to show mercy. Your safety is the most important thing."

Zhang Yang said goodbye to her proudly, "I can put down Li Longji's chaos in one month at most, and I will be back in two months."

Hei Chi Changzhi was very optimistic about Zhang Yang, and asked his capable subordinates to follow suit, and even asked his son to follow Zhang Yang to practice.

Zhang Yang went straight to Jinling with an army of [-].

Yao Chong is very experienced in governing the region. After he took control of Jinling City, he immediately cut off the communication channels in various places. From the beginning, Jinling City was allowed to enter and not allowed to leave, but slowly entered and exited, and the entire area was under martial law.

Although the people were afraid, the soldiers led by Li Longji and the soldiers recruited later did not disturb the people. Instead, they distributed food, controlled market prices, built bridges and paved roads to buy people's hearts.

Moreover, Li Longji is also the grandson of Li Tang's orthodox royal family.

Gradually, these common people also felt that this little Tang country is not bad, if they can live in harmony with the Great Tang, they don't have to worry about it.Although this peace will be short-lived, Datang has not made an official statement, and the future is still unknown. At least Tang and Tang will fight, and they will not suffer for no reason.

It is an initially stable situation.

On the first day Zhang Yang arrived, he used various means to inform everyone that the emperor of Jinling City was a rebel, and he was only the second son of the Prince Xiang.If a soldier entered the barracks because he was threatened or tricked, he would surrender and not be killed.

But Yao Chong had already planted an eyeliner in the army, spreading the news that Princess Taiping forced the palace to stand on its own. King Xiang and King Zhong had been imprisoned in Jinling City. Only King Linzi escaped after getting the news in advance. Li Longji is the only orthodox of the Li Tang royal blood. .

Although the soldiers did not believe the news, Yao Chong killed those who raised objections on charges of disturbing the morale of the army and collaborating with the enemy.

Everyone dare not disobey.

Li Longji couldn't hold out, relying on Jinling's water potential, he planned to defend the city for a long time.

Siege would consume a lot of manpower, Zhang Yang couldn't bear it, decided to encircle Jinling, and at the same time send troops to recover other areas, gradually besieging Jinling into an isolated city.

Li Longji had already made up his mind that he must make a name for himself, so naturally he refused to surrender.

But gradually, there were fewer and fewer cities that could communicate with Jinling, and they also realized that the situation was not good.

Wu Dan found the new emperor, asked for a way out for his son Li Longji, and moved out of his childhood friendship, as well as his classmate friendship with Li He, firmly saying that Li Longji was only bewitched by Yao Chong, and he was absolutely loyal to Datang.

Zhang Yang also said that Jinling City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they can't take it if they stick to it for a long time, so he suggested recruiting security.

In order to quell the chaos as soon as possible, the empress issued an edict that if Li Longji surrendered, he would be spared the death penalty.

Although Jinling City is rich in resources, it needs emergency precautions every day, and it also needs to prevent the local gentry from rebounding. Li Longji and Yao Chong are also quite troubled.

Knowing that the son of Heizhichang was in the army, Li Longji immediately decided to use a false surrender strategy to divide the army of the Great Zhou with an order from the princess.

Li Longji took Yao Chong and others out of the city, refusing to hand over the weapons on the grounds that he was a prince and once called himself emperor, and only allowed Zhang Yang to send someone to guard him, but he was not allowed to interfere with the actions of the fifty people he brought out.

In order to resolve the matter as soon as possible, Zhang Yang agreed to Li Longji's request, and planned to move away from Jinling for a while.

A group of people protected Li Longji and stepped into the siege, but these people suddenly turned around and divided into two groups. One group used hand crossbows and hidden weapons to enter the palace, and the other group escorted Li Longji out of the city.

More than [-] people had the same goal, Major General Black Tooth couldn't react for a while.

Zhang Yang rode his horse to break through the enemy's small encirclement and rescued Major General Black Tooth, but he was scratched by a poisoned hidden weapon and fell off the horse on the spot.

Everyone escorted Li Longji into the city. Zhang Yang planned to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but the archers at the top of the city fired too hard, and finally Li Longji fled back to the city.

At the moment when the opposite side entered the city, Major General Black Tooth set his bow and tried to shoot Li Longji, but was blocked by Yao Chong.

After entering the city, Li Longji panicked.

The conspiracies over the past few years, including the various performances of the court, to seize Jinling and proclaim the emperor, were all decided after discussing with Yao Chong.

Without Yao Chong, he worried that he would not be able to do everything well as before.

Yao Chong bluntly said that Li Longji has a lot of advisers around him now, but if there are no brave and skilled soldiers, he will definitely be defeated by Princess Taiping after a long time. It is better to surrender early, protect yourself, recruit talents, and wait for the opportunity.

Li Longji was unwilling to wait for another chance.

Zhang Yang was taken back to the camp. He was deeply poisoned and would die soon.

He ordered his body to be sent back to the Turks, and at the same time kept the matter secret and kept besieging the city. Li Longji would surely surrender.He also instructed Major General Black Tooth to learn the art of war well, take good precautions against frontier troubles, and not let foreign enemies take advantage of him.

After saying that he died, Major General Black Tooth acted according to his words.
