Wang Yan was taking a nap when he received the news. After hearing the news, he hurriedly got up, called Dahonglu Wang Dun, who was also a left-behind court official, and drove to the palace together.
The guards guarding the palace had fled.
Inside and outside the palace, there were all Luoyang sergeants under Shangguan Si's tent. After reporting their identities, they were allowed to enter, but the entourage was unarmed and left outside Duanmen.
Wang Yan and Wang Dun entered slowly, with a small school guarding the side with dozens of soldiers.
The Wang brothers watched quietly.
As far as the eye could see, there were soldiers carrying large and small bags and even carts full of belongings everywhere.
They were beaming with joy, talking and laughing loudly, looking at the "trophies" that were full of them, with smiles on their faces - since they could gain so much by plundering the palace, why bother fighting the Ye soldiers to death?
There is smoke rising in the distance, which seems to be in the direction of Zhaoyang Palace.
"Your Majesty, please relax. Queen, we have sent special personnel to guard the concubine's side. The general has spoken in advance. Anyone who rushes without permission will be killed without mercy." After seeing the shocked expressions on the faces of the Wang brothers, the principal explained in a low voice.
Fan.
"General Shangguan is really a pure minister." Wang Yan said in a neutral tone.
"It is admirable to serve the country with loyalty and bravery." Wang Dun also said with a smile.
The words of the two combined with the smoke in the palace are really ridiculous. They are all from the old Yin Yang family.
But neither of them dared to rebuke him outright.
There is great terror between life and death, and the Wang family does not have the spirit to sacrifice their lives for righteousness.
Under Shi Le's butcher's knife, the so-called celebrity, whose reputation is hard to live up to, suddenly appeared, and his knees and licks were extremely smooth.
Shi Le's sword is a sword, and Shangguan Si's sword can also kill people. It's just that the latter is more familiar with it and can bargain with it.
Tai Chi Hall arrived soon.
There are more soldiers here, and they seem to be somewhat well-behaved. There are many sentries and they are heavily guarded with swords and guns.
Wang Yan calmed down.
Although he is shameless, he has matured with age and is good at controlling his emotions in front of outsiders.
In the past two years or so, the situation in Luoyang has really become different from that in other states.
The warriors all over the city were ruthlessly committing rape, robbery, murder and arson. It was almost up to them to make the final decision.
If there is any city that is least like the Jin Dynasty, it must be the capital, Luoyang.
In other states, children of aristocratic families can travel around the mountains and rivers, recite poems and compose poems, appreciate the beautiful scenery in the woods, and appreciate the splendor of the mountains and rivers.
When you are tired, you can lie down in the bamboo forest and listen to the wonderful sound of the wind blowing in the bamboo sea.
If you are bored, you can ignore your appearance and enjoy yourself in the wells of Qiuyi City.
When you are angry, you can curse others with genuine temper to let yourself understand your thoughts.
But none of this is feasible in Luoyang.
Zhang Fang won't talk nonsense with you, and the soldiers under his command are extremely vulgar.
He doesn't understand you when you display the demeanor of a scholar since the Wei and Jin Dynasties. He only cares about the feeling on the tip of his tongue.
Shangguan Si may be a little better, but we have to meet him to know exactly how he is.
If you have no choice, you still have to coax.
"The king's servant has arrived." After Shangguan heard the announcement, he quickly walked out of the Tai Chi Hall and laughed.
Soon, he seemed to notice Wang Dun, nodded reservedly, and said: "Chu Zhong is here too."
The villain succeeds!
Wang Dun's expression changed, he became a little angry, but he quickly calmed down and returned the favor to the superior officer first.
Shangguan has already returned the greetings to the Wang brothers one by one.
"General Shangguan has returned with the crown prince. He has done a great job, but he doesn't know what his plan is?" Wang Yan asked.
Shangguan was slightly stunned.
In fact, he didn't think about it, he just subconsciously wanted to do something.
Before, they had ridiculed Mi Huang, Man Fen, and Miao Yuan, but none of them tried to control the palace. Now that Wang Yan asked this question, he felt that it didn't make much sense. After all, the emperor was still there.
"Luoyang cannot be without an owner for a day." Shangguan had been holding back for a long time before he said this.
Wang Yan knew it well.
From the beginning of the meeting to the conversation just now, he had already figured out a little bit of Shangguan Si's sense of proportion and bottom line.
So he asked: "What does General Shangguan want?"
"The emperor is on patrol, so naturally he has to supervise the country under the supervision of the prince." Shangguan Si said.
Wang Dun secretly thought, this is harming the prince.
If the emperor issued an edict and ordered the prince to supervise the country, it would make sense.
But now that a group of warriors are supported to supervise the country, that's another story.
As long as the prince is not stupid, he will not agree to it. Shangguan is completely messy. Under the attack of his greedy nature, he wants to follow the old example of Dong Zhuo in the late Han Dynasty?
"General Shangguan is loyal, but others may not understand it." Wang Yan sighed.
"This requires Wang Pushe's help." Shangguan looked at Wang Yan and said.
Wang Yan was noncommittal and did not give a direct answer. He only said: "The general is indeed brave and has a heart of caring about the country and the people. However, he may not be able to convince the public before he has made great achievements."
Shangguan was silent.
He and Miao Yuan joined forces. Although they were outnumbered, there were still Mi Huang, Man Fen and Chen Qi in the city.
Chen Jin only has a thousand people, so there is nothing to worry about.
The Manfen tribe originally had 3,000 people, but now it is estimated that there are 5,000.
But Mi Huang's troops were heard to have taken in some defeated troops, perhaps six thousand in number?
It adds up to a lot, almost as much as my own.
In a real fight, he could certainly win, but it would also take a lot of effort.
"How to make meritorious service?" Shangguan asked.
"Does the general know that Zhang Fang led his troops south?" Wang Yan asked rhetorically.
"I understand something, but I don't know where I am now."
"It's not far from Luoyang. If it takes three days if it's slow, or two days if it's quick, we will definitely reach the foot of Bo City."
"So fast? How does Pu She know?"
Wang Yan smiled reservedly: "My family must have some eyes and ears."
Shangguan's expression became condensed, and he somewhat suspected that Wang Yan was tricking him.
It’s not easy to collect intelligence when the outside world is in chaos. But you can’t lie about this kind of thing because it’s easy to verify.
For a time, he was suspicious, and Wang Yan's image in his mind became even more mysterious and unpredictable.
Wang Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, this guy is not like Zhang Fang, who cut his head off with a knife, but is still able to communicate. As long as he can communicate, he has a way. What is most scary is that he does it directly without any nonsense, which is really difficult to handle.
"Please also ask Pu She to teach me." Shangguan bowed again and said sincerely.
"If the general can defeat Zhang Fang, who can stop him when he returns to the army?" Wang Yan said: "In the past at the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu defeated the Qin army, summoned all the princes and generals, and entered the camp gate. They all walked forward on their knees, and no one dared to look up.
.From then on, Xiang Yu became the general of the princes, and all the princes belonged to Yan. With such heroic spirit, wouldn’t the general, the general, be fascinated by it?"
Shangguan was already a little moved.
He had an old base of 3,000 Chinese troops, and gathered more than 2,000 scattered Chinese soldiers who had been defeated on the road. By this time, they had all been reorganized.
It can be said that this is his greatest confidence and the main reason why he dares to act recklessly in the city.
Miao Yuan also had 5,000 soldiers under his command, but compared with the 5,000 veterans of his army, they were nothing to mention.
Although the East China Sea Kingdom Army has the brave general Shao Xun, the soldiers are not good enough and there is no reason to worry too much.
Chen Jin has too few soldiers, and his old strength is being wasted. Thousands of men cannot achieve great things.
If he can defeat Zhang Fang and gather Zhang Fang's surrender troops, his momentum will become even stronger. By then no one in Luoyang will dare to oppose him.
Walking forward on your knees, don’t dare to look up, haha, how majestic!
"With General Shangguan, Luoyang is as stable as Mount Tai." Wang Yan complimented with a smile.
Shangguan was even more happy.
Wang Yifu is the most famous person in the world. If there is peace, he will definitely have a huge family. Even if he wants to meet someone like him, he may not be qualified. Now he is complimenting himself, haha, how wonderful!
Thinking of this, he called a general and ordered: "Take five hundred people to patrol the city and restrain the sons and gentlemen. Don't make too much trouble. It's just asking for money. Don't disturb the female family members, and don't kill people indiscriminately."
"No." The general took the order and left.
"The general's righteousness is admirable." Wang Yan's face straightened, he took two steps back, bowed and praised.
Shangguan Si quickly helped Wang Yan up and said, "You must never perform this great ceremony."
"That's right." Wang Yan said solemnly: "The general is loyal to Xu Guo. He is about to bravely defeat the stubborn enemy and relieve the crisis in Luoyang. A mere courtesy means nothing."
"The only one who can defeat Zhang Fang and protect Luoyang is the general." Wang Dun took advantage of the situation and added fire.
Shangguan's smile became even brighter.
After years of hard work, have we finally reached this point? The Langya Wang family even bowed to me, haha, I never dared to dream about it before.
The troops of the Western thieves were not very good at fighting. When the King of Changsha was there, he defeated them and routed them to a complete defeat.
Now that we have more than 5,000 elite soldiers, we can use this as a basis. Then we can recruit Chen Qi, Man Fen, Miao Yuan, Mi Huang and others to attack them together. After a great victory, that will be the day I take power.
"I heard that Pu She has a girl named Hui Feng, who has been a widow for many years." Shangguan was already proud and said, "Quuzi is seventeen years old and is a perfect match for Pu She's daughter. I don't know..."
Shangguan Si's son is seventeen years old, and Wang Huifeng is twenty-five years old this year. They are indeed a good match, a perfect match.
The female is a junior in college and is holding a gold brick. The female is eight years old and cannot imagine what she can hold.
Wang Dun's face changed slightly when he heard this.
Wang Yan did not take it seriously at all, but laughed and said: "The general killed the enemy with all his strength and returned from defeating the thieves. He has made great contributions to the country. My little girl usually admires heroes the most. It will be a perfect match for her to marry into the general's house.
willing."
Shangguan was excited when he heard that Wang Yan seemed to agree.
This is the daughter of the Wang family. Even if she is a widow, how can she be looked up to by her family?
Unexpectedly, it actually happened?
"That's all if Zhang Fang doesn't come. If he comes, Yifu will watch me from the top of the city beating the thieves." Shangguan had already patted his chest and said loudly.
Chapter completed!
