Chapter 1021 Divide troops to save Shuofang (continued 2)

As a chain reaction and aftermath of the upcoming northward strategy, preparations such as repair and cleaning have also begun in the backyard of the royal palace;

Just in the bright sunshine and warm-sick glass room, Cao Hongyao, who was wearing a skirt and hanging out with the wind, looked particularly beautiful and gentle, said with a little nostalgic in Rushui's eyes:

"It seems that I will move again in the future, but I can't bear to live in this garden that I'm used to living in!"

"It's okay. If you like, you can build one again in the north as it is. The plants and flowers can also be transplanted slowly. This place can also be used as a temporary garden, and you can come back and stay there by chance in the future."

Zhou Huaian, who was also full of joy, was relieved that he had a vain and said:

"Of course, I have thought about it too. When it is useless in the future, some of these museums will be used as newly established higher education institutions and scientific research venues, and the other will be used for official meetings and internal care;"

"At the same time, there is no need to be abandoned for the remaining part of the garden that has been expanded. It is open for a fee for private tours, thinking that it is better to earn some maintenance and maintenance costs for the people."

"Mr. I'm just afraid that those people will make their suggestions not decent enough."

Cao Hongyao burst out laughing:

"What those people say is just a ball. The standards of decent and undecent in the new era are not up to these people. In the future, the relevant places will be handled accordingly, which can at least avoid disturbing the people and reduce the burden on the local area."

Zhou Huaian said without hesitation:

——I am the dividing line that is about to move—

In Chang'an City, in the Shengyang Hall of Wangchun Palace in the Imperial City; the Prime Minister Zheng Ting, who had just been interrupted by his eldest son Zheng Ningji, called out to report separately, also looked ugly and asked sternly:

"You will explain it again and again, what's going on in Shanxi Road!"

"Sir, it's not just Shanxi Road, but Jiannan Sanchuan is in danger."

Zheng Ningji, who seemed a little helpless, said in a disloyal voice:

"The Shu army stationed on the Qizhou line has been destroyed one after another. Now the bandits have successively sank the Pass, Luogu Road and Baoxi Road, and the bandits in Lantian - Wuguan Road are connected to the south of the Wei River!"

Then Zheng Ningji wanted to speak and stopped saying:

“What’s even worse….”

"What exactly is it? Is it possible that the emperor and his army are in trouble? Xichuan is known to have good soldiers and sufficient food, and there are many old ministers and generals..."

Zheng Ting couldn't help but raise his eyebrows with great majesty:

"If it were just like this, it would be fine...but, it is said that some people fled back said that they had seen the emperor's ceremonial guards and flags among the thieves who had attacked Sanguan!!"

Zheng Ningji said hesitantly:

"It's outrageous. How dare these people talk about it?... Is it easy for people to be punished in the future? Will they keep themselves in chaos? "

Zheng Ting couldn't help but say: However, in his heart, he couldn't help but figure out the possibility of this matter; after all, with the temperament of the Polo Emperor who was interested in leisure, it was hard to imagine that he would die in the country at the last moment.

However, as long as this matter is so possible, it will undoubtedly be a collapse and devastating blow to the morale and hearts of all the armies gathered in Chang'an City. After all, they were all summoned to serve the king under the name of supporting the Tang Dynasty and respecting the emperor.

Many families even hope to obtain the post-recognition and title of emperor, so that they can achieve the achievements of becoming generals and ministers and titles, or the real power and interests of a certain person who has been granted the title of marquis and titles; and even in this way, the clan has been in the middle ground for a long time.

As the head of the prime minister in charge of the Political Affairs Hall, he could certainly plan and make plans in the middle; even promised many interests and futures for the court and the Tian family on their behalf, as a driving force and mutual restraint;

But once the emperor, who is the common goal of serving the king and the target of loyalty, is no longer here, how can we expect these tigers and wolves in the Western Army who are originally despicable and of different quality to continue to work hard and drive?

Not to mention the Guiyi Army who had worked hard for this, and the related border vassal tribes that were rioted; even the Liangzhou soldiers, Shence Army, etc., which were originally directly affiliated with the imperial court's official army, would be greatly shaken and in chaos.

"Go immediately and take my guards with me. If you intercept as many as you want, you won't leave any one left!!!"

Then he said sternly without hesitation:

Then, he returned to the government affairs hall without changing his expression, but he hadtily finished the remaining discussion. Then he found the camp supervisor Peng Jingrou and ordered alone:

"Peng Dujian, you must hurry to handle it."

"But please give me instructions..."

Peng Jingrou, who had a white face and no need to have four stubborn bodies, couldn't help but say respectfully:

"When the thief is emerging again, please check the remains of the royal family in the city and escort them all to Wangchun Palace; save more mistakes..."

Zheng Ting said lightly:

"promise."

Peng Jingrou responded repeatedly: But he hurriedly took the order and walked away.

Afterwards, Zheng Qie, also a famous man, summoned Qiu Gongyu, the governor of Qin Cheng (Tianxiong Army), Zheng Huangyan, the commander of Longzhou (now Long County, Shaanxi), Qi Kejian, the commander of Shence’s right camp, Zheng Duangong, the commander of Liangzhou’s defense and the commander of Hexi observation, Zhang Dianyan, the deputy commander of Lingyan (Shuofang) and other trusted generals.

After they gathered together one after another, Zheng Ting solemnly took out a volume of white mahjong's book and announced:

"Yu Duo was sent to the sages of the Holy Lord a few days ago, saying that he had been in Shu for a long time and could not come out. He couldn't help but burst into tears and cried. He decided to choose his children from the relatives of the clan to prepare for the imperial heir to be passed down..."

Then everyone present had different expressions and reactions. After exchanging several rounds of jealous expressions with each other in a short period of time, no one personally stood up to express his objection. Instead, some relief that "should be like this" and those who understand it all said one after another:

“Should be in the Hadith…”

"The Holy Lord is wise..."

"But the old host of the listening hall..."

After shaking the mess and unifying the basic thoughts and opinions in a quick manner regardless of the cost and consequences, Zheng Ting began to plan the next step in a hurry, and at the regular branch expansion meeting the next day, he promoted relevant persuasion and recommendation matters at all costs;

Because, with the Taiping thieves who had already arrived at the city again, he had a vague illusion that he could not wait and a serious sense of urgency. You should know that tens of thousands of officials in Chang'an City took turns to fight, oppressing the thieves guarding the south of the city to the only corner of the Mingde Gate, and then he could no longer be killed.

Therefore, after subversion of the small and medium-sized courts in Shu, he recreated and elected a substitute and candidate potential loyalty to continue to operate in the name of the court center, in order to meet the situation.

Even if he was given the reputation of powerful ministers and forgers of edicts for this, he would be willing to do so. After all, the title of the Tang court and emperor who were used to maintain and unite the hearts of many people was no longer there; then it would be meaningless if he was concerned about the reputation of powerful ministers or forgers of edicts.

Thinking of this, his face full of worry became firm again, as if he had returned to the indomitable and proud role of "prime minister of the time" and "iron-bone husband" who was "save the time".

At the same time, amid the noise in the west of Chang'an City, Gao Renhou, the governor of Xichuan, rushed out of Kaiyuan Gate without looking back, without looking back, and fled towards the Xiwei Bridge in the distance, gradually disappearing into the deserted and silent suburbs outside the city.

A few days ago, Gao Renhou, who was able to hunt from the mountains and escape from the Jedi who fell into the Dasan Pass, also led these unyielding personal soldiers to the north, wandering around and wandering away from the continuous attacks of the thieves' army, and then fled to the capital after hardships.

When they were ragged and covered in dust, they hurriedly crossed the Xiwei Bridge with a group of defeated soldiers, but were surrounded by the officers and soldiers guarding the bridge at that time, and were about to capture and execute them as deserters.

Here, Gao Renhou showed his seal without hesitation and publicly stated his identity, and claimed that there was an emergency army to meet Zheng Xianggong. Although this result surprised and unbelievable by the local defenders, under the promised reward, he still informed him of the nearest Shu army stationed in the Shu army.

Then, a Shu army unit from Kaiyuanmen rushed over and confirmed his identity on the spot, and respectfully protected him; he took the initiative to invite the Shu army stationed in Chang'an City to rest.

After all, as the name of Gao "Ren Zheng" who fought in various places in Sanchuan, he was quite famous and worthy among the soldiers in Shu. He also stayed in the military camp and shared joys and sorrows with the soldiers, which not only won the hearts of the people but also made many soldiers familiar with him.

Obviously, although the generals of the Shu army belonged to the Shanxi Road sequence, they were also said to be one of the old subordinates who had led the country in the past. They were respectful and courteous all the way, leading him to Kaiyuan Gate west of Chang'an City.

However, the next moment when the team passed through the outside door, they were greeted by the rain of arrows falling from the city, and a group of soldiers rushing out despite the casualties and injuries. The leader even shouted at him:

"Super Gao is running away quickly, Wang Jiangou wants to ambush you."

However, before these soldiers who did not know their enemies and friends finished shouting, they were already chased out from behind by more swords and axes and swords and axes, and they were killed on the ground. At this moment, Gao Renhou suddenly realized and captured the general and schoolmate who were standing side by side, using it as a shield to block the arrows and fight and retreat.
