Back to Datang with weapons

Chapter 731 Tang Yizhi's Worries
At noon, Zhang Twelve and the others stayed in Dianyang to eat and rest.

During the meal break, Zhang Twelve and Sun Longtao inquired about the information in the north, and learned that from Dianyang to the north, there is only one city, Fengzhou, between Jingzhou and Dianyang.

However, Fengzhou is small, less than half of Dianyang. If the journey is fast, it will take less than two hours. If you continue northward from Fengzhou to Jingzhou, it will take about a day.

Zhang Twelve nodded, thinking that he would continue on his way after eating, and try to capture Fengzhou today, rest for two days, and then go straight to Jingzhou!

After hearing his plan, Sun Longtao laughed a few times and said, "Bomo, Zhang County, be in a hurry! Eat and drink enough in our Dianyang, rest for a while, and go to Fengzhou before it's too late!"

Seeing Zhang Twelve's puzzled face, Sun Longtao smiled and explained.

It turned out that Wu Fangqiu, the guard of Fengzhou City, and Sun Longtao were from the same school, and they had a good relationship, and their behavior style was the same as Sun Longtao's, hating evil like hatred, and very upright.

A few days ago, when Sun Longtao decided to oppose Datang and support Zhang Twelve, he told Wu Fangqiu about it. Zhou, he must open the city gates to welcome!

That's why Sun Longtao let Zhang Twelve eat and drink enough in Dianyang, because they just need to go to Fengzhou to rest and rest, and they can go directly to Jingzhou tomorrow morning!

Zhang Twelve couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this.

I thought to myself that this Northern Expedition was too simple, it was like playing, how could there be any difficulty at all?

So I felt relieved, thinking that when I arrive in Fengzhou in the evening, I can leave for Jingzhou tomorrow!
Jingzhou, here I come!

Tang Yizhi, your time of death has arrived!

Later, Zhang Twelve asked Sun Longtao about other news, such as where is Guo Jing, who rebelled from Liangzhou, now.

According to Sun Longtao, Guo Jing's journey was relatively smooth. He first captured Taizhou, and then went east all the way, invincible.

This is also understandable, Liangzhou is located in the border land of the extreme west of the Tang Dynasty, and there are constant wars every year, so the soldiers of Liangzhou can be said to have been battle-hardened and have particularly rich combat experience.

The officers and soldiers from other parts of the Tang Dynasty were relatively lazy because they were located in the interior and had not fought for many years. Therefore, although Guo Jing met a lot of resistance along the way, he finally won the victory.

Moreover, the common people in many cities had already heard about the reasons for Zhang Twelve's Northern Expedition, so they were extremely supportive of Zhang Twelve, which also relieved a lot of pressure on Guo Jing's journey eastward.

According to Sun Longtao's knowledge, Guo Jing is only a few days away from Jingzhou at this time. If it is a coincidence, it is not certain that the two teams may meet.

Hearing that Guo Jing was fine, Zhang Twelve felt relieved...

………………

In recent days, Tang Yizhi has been a little anxious.

He really didn't expect that Zhang Twelve's road to the north would be so smooth. Not only that, Zhang Twelve in the south was enough to annoy him, but who knew that there was another Guo Jing in the west. is bad news.

For a while Zhang Twelve rebelled in Jinling, and for a while Guo Jing rebelled in Liangzhou.

After a while Zhang Twelve went north to take Quzhou, and after a while Guo Jing took Taizhou along the way.

There is no time for him to be free, so he can only hope that other cities can stop Zhang Twelve - even if they don't stop him, at least delay Zhang Twelve's time!
Because according to his estimation, those Wu troops have left Jingzhou for some days, and they will arrive in Jinling in about a few days.

Taking advantage of Zhang Twelve's blocking, Wu's army captured Jinling in one fell swoop, and took Zhang Twelve's women as hostages. This battle will be decided!
Did he know how important women are to Zhang Twelve? Someone had captured his woman, Lu Fujing, but he beat the entire family to death. In the end, he ruined the family and ruined the entire family!

Therefore, women are Zhang Twelve's reverse scale and at the same time his weakness!
"His Majesty!"

At this time, an officer and soldier dressed as a scout rushed in.

"What's the news!"

Tang Yizhi was a little excited. At this time, the scouts must have reported news about Zhang Twelve. He hoped to hear some good news, but seeing the scout's reaction, he always felt that the news was not good!

"Return to Your Majesty, Dianyang is broken!"

"What? How is this possible?"

Tang Yizhi slapped the table and stood up. The scouts came to report yesterday. Zhang Twelve and the others were still in Quzhou at night. How come Dianyang was destroyed just after noon?

Logically speaking, at this time, Zhang Twelve had just arrived in Dianyang at most. It doesn't take time to siege the city?
What the scout said next clearly told him that Zhang Twelve's siege did not take much time...

"Return to Your Majesty! I heard that after Zhang Twelve arrived in Dianyang, the city gate of Dianyang was opened wide. Sun Longtao, the general of Dianyang, and the people of Dianyang sent Zhang Twelve and others into the city outside the gate, so his attack on the city was simply impossible. No time!"

"…………"

Tang Yizhi was about to explode when he heard this!
It just doesn't make sense!
"This group of rebels are really bold! How dare you openly support Zhang Twelve? Are you not afraid that I will kill them all? And those common people are simply idle! Could it be that the tax I added to them is not enough for them to be busy? You still have the heart to support Zhang Twelve? Bold and bold! You should kill, you should kill!"

Tang Yizhi yelled for a while, while Wu De, who was next to him, sighed in his heart, thinking that if you hadn't ignored the opposition of others and increased taxes at will after you took office, it would be strange if the people would be grateful to you!

"His Majesty!"

At this time, another scout came to report.

When Tang Yizhi saw this scout, he immediately became interested, because he knew this person and knew that he was sent to Jinling to inquire about information. When he went to Jinling, Tang Yizhi specifically asked him not to come back until the situation in Jinling was settled. Reporting, it saves him to report back and forth on small things, which is not enough for three sentences back and forth!
And when he comes back at this time, it is obvious that Jinling has already had a result!The most likely thing is that Wu's army broke through Jinling. Thinking of this, he had a smile on his face.

"Quickly tell me, what happened to Jinling? Has Wu's army arrived? Has Jinling City been captured?"

Tang Yizhi asked impatiently.

After hearing this, the scout showed embarrassment, and replied: "Your Majesty, the Wu army has indeed arrived in Jinling, but it has withdrawn now!"

"What? Withdrawal? Why withdrawal? How is it possible to withdraw?"

Tang Yizhi, who was furious, threw out the three consecutive questions, the scout was a little confused for a moment, thought for a while, and then answered step by step.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the Wu army has indeed withdrawn. They went to Jinling to attack the city continuously, and it has already shown initial results, but—"

The last thing you want to hear is "but", because no matter how good you said before, as long as "but" comes out, nothing good will happen!
Sure enough, the scout said next: "But Zhang Twelve suddenly returned to Jinling, and then used Xiao Li's flying knife to kill the prince of Wu directly!
The Wu army was leaderless and could not attack Jinling, and Zhang Twelve used a lot of Xiaoli flying knives. As a result, more than half of the Wu army was killed and injured, which was terrible. The remaining Wu army panicked and ran back! "

"…………"

Hearing this, several people in the room were silent. They still underestimated Zhang Twelve's strength!

Moreover, after Zhang Twelve returned to Jinling and dealt with Wu's army, he went north to take Dianyang. Isn't this efficiency too fast?

Tang Yizhi couldn't help feeling a little scared, what kind of person did he provoke?
"Master Wu, what should we do next?"

Wu De was also a little guilty. If he relied on martial arts alone, he would not be afraid of Zhang Twelve. Moreover, he was confident in his own skills. Few people in the world could beat him!
However, Zhang Twelve's fearfulness cannot be measured by martial arts!
The power of the Little Li Feidao on him was something Wu De had never heard of and seen. The first time he saw Zhang Twelve using the Little Li Feidao was at the Royal Hunting Ground. He smashed the war horse in the black cloak, and his shock at that time was undeniable!
There is such a power five hundred steps away, if it is used face to face, wouldn't it be able to kill everyone?
Therefore, his attitude towards Zhang Twelve has always been good, and he once thought of wooing him.

However, the two perform their own duties and serve different masters, the conflicts between them cannot be reconciled, so let it go in the end.

He regretted it a little now. If he had directly killed Zhang Twelve when he was in Jinling, wouldn't he have any worries now?

But it was too late to regret it now, Wu De thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, are Miss Lin and the child ready?"

Tang Yizhi's eyes lit up, and he immediately figured it out!
That's right, Zhang Twelve's women and children are in his hands, which can be described as a double insurance. With them around, he is not afraid of Zhang Twelve's toughness!
Tang Yizhi nodded and said, "According to Mr. Wu's wishes, both mother and daughter have been brought into the palace!"

Wu De nodded, no need to say anything more, Tang Yizhi should know better than him what to do next.

However, he still had some resistance to this method in his heart, and he couldn't help praying that it would be better not to use this method...

With a countermeasure, Tang Yizhi was not so anxious.

Although there was another news that Zhang Twelve arrived in Fengzhou and Jingzhou in less than two days, Tang Yizhi didn't care anymore, come on, come on, let your family reunite when you come!

………………

Jingzhou, the mansion of Duke Mo.

At this time, Mo Guogong was no longer Mo Guogong, but his son Mo Xie.

At the beginning, Duke Mo thought it would be a very happy thing to give up his title to his son Mo Xie, so he resigned decisively and willingly, but when Mo Xie really became Duke Mo, he realized that , it seems that something is not quite right, for example, military power!
At the beginning, according to Wu De's words, when the title was handed over, the military power had to be handed over first, and then returned to the military power after the handover was completed. Mo Guogong is a little anxious!

But Duke Mo has resigned from office, and now he has no official title, and he can no longer enter the palace as before, so even if he has doubts, there is nothing he can do.

He was not reconciled, so he could only ask his son Mo Xie to ask when he was in court, but the answer he got was frustrating and infuriating. Tang Yizhi said that starting from him, the military power would no longer be under the jurisdiction of Duke Hu, but would be given to the Holy Majesty, that is, him. Take care of yourself!
At this time, Duke Mo raised his head to the sky and screamed, only then did he realize that he had been cheated!

If he doesn't give up the title to his son, even if he stays in this position for another five or ten years, then the military power will still be in his hands for five or ten years!

But now, without the military power, Mo Xie's Duke Protector is nothing more than a name!

All of this was planned by Tang Yizhi in order to seize his military power!

But it was too late for Mo Guogong to react. Even if he knew, he could only scold Tang Yizhi for his tricks in the mansion.

And just a few days after Mo Xie became the protector of the country, Mo Li's letter arrived belatedly in the hands of Mo Guogong.

When he saw this letter, Mo Guogong really shouted to the sky, happy and regretful at the same time!

Happily, through the letter, he knew that his daughter Mo Li, whom he had been worrying about for a long time, was doing well now, and the most important thing was that the letter said that Zhang Twelve was still alive!

Haha, he just said, Zhang Twelve is such a monkey spirit, who can harm him?Moreover, Zhang Twelve is a bad guy, people say that good people don't live long, and bad people live for thousands of years. Zhang Twelve is not a good person, so he shouldn't die so early!

And Mo Li's letter just confirmed his thoughts, Zhang Twelve is really not dead, he is living well in Jinling right now!
Moreover, Mo Li also told the story of why Zhang Twelve was killed. When he saw this, Mo Guogong shouted angrily, the first emperor was really killed by Tang Yizhi!And the same is true for King Xiang back then!
Everything has something to do with Tang Yizhi!
And Zhang Twelve is also preparing to raise troops in Jinling, intending to fight all the way to Jingzhou, to expose Tang Yizhi's crimes, and to avenge the dead King Xiang and the late Emperor!

Mo Guogong's blood boiled with enthusiasm, and he wished that Zhang Twelve would go to Jingzhou immediately, and he would do something great with Zhang Twelve!
But he regretted being here, and it would have been better if this letter had arrived a few days earlier, then he would never have surrendered his military power no matter what!
Even if he wanted to help Zhang Twelve now, he didn't have a single soldier under him, so there was nothing he could do to help!
Hey, after all the calculations, it seems that Tang Yizhi still tricked him!
Tang Yizhi, as the king of a country, must have known about Zhang Twelve's affairs in Jinling for a long time. He knew his relationship with Zhang Twelve. Military power will definitely help Zhang Twelve.

That's why the military power was taken away!

How cunning!Mo Guogong thought bitterly.

However, he has been an official in the court for many years, so he will not admit defeat so easily!
