Chapter 861 Incineration

Listening to Yan Qing's words, Zhang Gong stroked his beard and laughed, turned around and glanced at Yan Qing, and said angrily, "You kid, you are a ghost, the princess asked you to come back, right?" Hmph, is the old man really old enough to make you feel uneasy? ”

General Zhang Gong is still a little dissatisfied with the arrangement of Zhang Zhenniang and Zhu Lian, he thinks that he is old and strong, not worse than Lian. Yan Qing is a ghost elf, so he hurriedly took two steps forward to hold Zhang Gong's arm, and laughed quietly, "Old general, you think about it too much, this is not the princess's idea, the kid himself wants to come back." There is not much going on in Liaodong, the kid can't be idle, so he ran to Chang'an, as soon as he heard that the old general arrived in Shangluo, he didn't hurry to the old general's command. The kid hasn't listened to the old general's teachings for many years, you, just give me a few more words if you're fine, your old man's ability to train the army is even admired by Han Dashuai and Niu Dashuai. ”

"Haha, just your kid's mouth is sweet, the old man can tell you, the old man is less noisy, if you make the old man unhappy, the old man will throw you back to Chang'an" Zhang Gong has not led the troops for many years, and finally left Dayangtan to serve as the main general, where is he willing to go back easily. Yan Qing traveled thousands of miles from Liaodong to Shangluo, and the main task was probably to replace him Zhang Gong, but the people in Chang'an were hindered by his identity as Zhang Gong, so it was difficult to say clearly, so Yan Qing was given a position as a deputy general. In fact, Zhang Gong can also understand Chang'an's thoughts, after all, Shangluo is too important, there are many soldiers and horses, and one Wu Liang alone can't manage it, and it is very necessary to transfer another tiger general to Shangluo. However, he Zhang Gong pretended to be confused. Anyway, I just won't go back to Chang'an. The eldest princess and the daughter are just anxious. Can you still run to Shangluo and drive him back?

It is said that once a person reaches a certain age, he will become an old child, Yan Qing feels that the old general Zhang Gong in front of him is an old child, and he can't win the old general, so he has to coax him well. So Yan Qing stood up straight and said with a serious expression, "Old general, you are too worried, the eldest princess and Princess Zhang have not said these words, but when the kid came, he saw that His Royal Highness was sick." Princess Zhang is not lightly worried. ”

As soon as he mentioned His Royal Highness, Zhang Gong immediately panicked, pulled Yan Qing's sleeve and said urgently, "Is that little baby really sick?" Zhenniang is really, the old man has told her, this season is windy, let the children run out, just don't listen...... Hey, no, you kid won't lie to the old man, right? Zhang Gong rolled his eyes. The beard shook and shook, where would Yan Qing admit it. Without blinking, he replied very sincerely, "Old general, do you think the kid dares to lie to you, if he deceives you, if your old man says two words, the kid's skin will have to be stripped off." ”

Yan Qing is too good at acting, which makes Zhang Gong's heart go up and down, Yan Qing laughs secretly in her heart, it seems that it is Princess Zhang who can hold the old general, and she knows that the old general feels sorry for his grandson. There was something in his heart, Zhang Gong stopped patrolling the city, and returned to the state capital in a little huff. Zhang Gong couldn't figure out whether what Yan Qing said was true or not, anyway, he couldn't calm down in his heart, he sat in the room for a while, stared at Yan Qing and said angrily, "You kid, the old man is served, don't you just want the old man to go back to Chang'an, okay, the old man will go back tomorrow." But the ugly words are ahead, if Your Highness is fine, don't blame the old man for asking you. ”

"Old general, look at what you said, if the kid lies, let you punish him" Yan Qing tried her best to coax Zhang Gong, anyway, send the old general back to Chang'an first, so as not to have any accidents. Seeing that Zhang Gong agreed, Yan Qing found a reason to leave the state capital, and walked along the long street to the east of the city defense camp, where he saw Wu Liang who was busy, and when he saw Yan Qing coming, Wu Liang was very surprised, put down the pen in hand, frowned, and said, "General Yan, didn't you accompany the old general to inspect the city defense at this time, why did you come to me?" ”

"Ha, General Wu, I want to discuss something with you, tomorrow Yan will send the old general back to Chang'an, let's hand over the city defense matter tonight!" Hearing this, a hint of imperceptibility flashed in Wu Liang's eyes, and Yan Qing didn't notice it at all. Wu Liang was only slightly stunned, and then said with a smile, "Yes, Wu will arrange it tonight, and when the old general is sent away tomorrow, General Yan can take over the Dongcheng camp." ”

Yan Qing, as Zhang Gong's deputy general, actually had to temporarily take over the city defense, which sounds very strange, but it is not complicated to say. When arranging the defense of Shangluo Road before, Xiao Zhiyun, Zhu Lian and others never thought of letting Zhang Gong come up, after all, Zhang Gong is not young, and he has a relationship with Zhen Niang, I am really afraid that this old general who has made great achievements in Ding **** will have some accidents. Therefore, at the beginning, only Wu Liang, who was transferred back from Gyeonggi Road, was stationed in Shangluo, and there were only more than 8,000 soldiers and horses. Later, heavy troops gathered in Shangluo Dao, and with Wu Liang's qualifications, he was a little unable to calm down, and he had to go to Shangluo Dao. At that time, Han Shizhong and Xiao Zhiyun and others were dragged on Gyeonggi Road and couldn't move, Wu Jue had another incident, Pang He and Xiao Yue had to garrison Hangu Pass and guard the Yellow River crossing, and Tuoba Qingyun was stationed at Jianmen Pass, and it was impossible to transfer them back. Over the years, Zhang Gong has been sitting in Dayangtan, training soldiers and horses, and has a high prestige. But considering Zhang Gong's age, Zhu Lian repeatedly instructed that all the big and small affairs of Shangluo were handed over to Wu Liang, and Zhang Gong was only responsible for the overall scheduling, which was also for fear of tiring Zhang Gong. Now that Zhang Gong is leaving and Yan Qing is coming, Shangluo City Defense will definitely be handed over to Yan Qing.

The night soon enveloped Shangluo City, and he had to hurry tomorrow, so Yan Qing coaxed Zhang Gong to rest earlier, and then led a few personal soldiers to inspect the city defense. Although he has not been in Shangluo for a long time, Yan Qing has a clear understanding of Shangluo's city defense, from Xicheng to Nancheng, all the way, and gradually Yan Qing feels a little strange. But where is the specific discomfort, and I can't say, when I came to the South City Gate, after checking that there was no problem, I was just about to leave, and I heard Tian Yu, a soldier next to him, whisper, "Isn't this Zhao Mazi from the East Battalion, why did he run to the South City Gate to garrison?" ”

Tian Yu's words immediately made Yan Qing understand. Shangluo is divided into two battalions in the east and west, and the division of labor is also different, the west camp is responsible for the city defense, while the east camp is responsible for the city, and now the people of the east camp run over to guard the city gate. It's a little weird. At least for now. Yan Qing had never heard the old general talk about changing guards. If there is any specific transfer arrangement, it is impossible for him Yan Qing not to know. What the hell is going on? Yan Qing turned around and walked in front of Zhao Mazi, "You are very fresh, it seems that you were not in charge of the defense of Nancheng before, right?" ”

"Back to General Yan, the last general was ordered by General Wu and temporarily transferred to Nancheng, General Yan doesn't know the last general. It's not unusual" Zhao Mazi's tone was respectful, looking very calm, Yan Qing nodded quietly, and then turned around and left, but when he didn't leave far, his face became gloomy. Something is not right, something like this must be allowed by the old general, why did Wu Liang give an order privately, and there are a lot of fresh faces stationed in the city tonight, even if it is a temporary change. It wouldn't happen to be so many people. Almost instinctively, I felt that something was going to happen. Yan Qing didn't go to the East Camp, but said sternly to a few of his own soldiers, "You quietly go back to the West Camp, find General Yao Gu, and ask him to gather the Huaide Camp, remember, don't make a noise." ”

Yan Qing didn't know if he was right or wrong to do this, but reason told him that he had to do this, if it was really as he thought, it meant that Wu Liang was going to be the opposite. Wu Liang is a **** veteran, and more than 20,000 of his cronies are all in Shangluo City, and these soldiers are all old people from the border army such as the original security army, not the real **** lineage. If Wu Liang rebelled, the only person in Shangluo City who could really command at this time was Yao Gu's Huaide Battalion. But even Yao Gu's Huaide Battalion, there are only more than 4,000 people transferred to Shangluo this time, in short, the situation is very bad. Now Yan Qing has only one thought, that is, she hopes that her guess is wrong, because if it is true, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Yan Qing made arrangements quietly, but at this time, the East Camp was brightly lit, and all the generals of the East Camp were gathered in the house, without a little sleepiness, if Zhang Gong was here, he would definitely find that there were obviously a few fewer generals in the house at this time. Wu Liang didn't speak, but his confidant Cao Qing arched his hand and said, "General Wu, according to your orders, Ren Kui's people have been solved, and now the Dongda Camp is all our people, what to do next, just listen to General Wu's order." ”

As he spoke, Cao Qing looked very excited and excited, because they knew what it meant to take this step, and if they took this step, they would either glorify their ancestors and be rich and prosperous for generations in the future, or they would die and the lights would go out and leave a stench for a hundred years. Wu Liang squinted his eyes and looked cold, but no one knew how agitated his heart was, of course, it could also be said that he was hesitant and flustered, he had avoided coming to this point, but reality pushed him to come to this step little by little. Yes, he Wu Liang is the biggest moth in Ding****, and he is the thief that His Highness has been looking for for many years but has not found. To be honest, Wu Liang doesn't want to be like this, His Royal Highness has the grace of knowing him, if it weren't for His Highness, how could he Wu Liang be today. It was because of His Royal Highness's promise that he Wu Liang was able to become the founder of Ding**** with Han Shizhong and others, and became one of the few veterans of Ding****. There is still fear of His Highness's obedience, but he is a man, and there are some things he has to do.

"Order all the ministries, close the city gates, whoever dares to go out of the city, there is no mercy, now, everyone, go to the government with Ben General, no matter what the price is, you can't let Zhang Gong run, remember one thing, don't hurt Zhang Gong, understand?" Wu Liang raised his voice suddenly, and his eyes became gloomy. Wu Liang knows very well in his heart that Zhang Gong can't die, a living Zhang Gong can play a great role, as a veteran of Ding****, he knows better than anyone Zhang Gong's status in the Ding**** army, and the soldiers of the Ding**** lineage who have not been taught by Zhang Gong, it can be said that all the **** soldiers who are trained in Dayangtan are all students of Zhang Gong. What's more, Zhang Gong, as the old father-in-law of His Royal Highness King Qin, has a high status, and he can do a lot of things with him. Of course, Wu Liang knew how ruthless he was in doing this, but since he had come to this point, was there room for maneuver?

With Wu Liang's order, Dongdaying began to act, Wu Liang had been preparing for a long time, he definitely couldn't let Zhang Gong leave Shangluo, if it wasn't for Zhang Gong to leave, why would he suddenly make trouble? Yan Qing made arrangements, but after all, it was much late, and when he hurried to the street outside the palace, he saw that there was already a fire in the sky, and there were sounds of fighting everywhere. Seeing this scene, Yan Qing's head immediately exploded, and it was over, Wu Liang really reversed. Concerned about Zhang Gong, Yan Qing couldn't care much, pulled out his sword and roared angrily, "Wu Liang rebelled and rebelled, so you can go to the government office with me as soon as possible to save the old general from the city." ”

Yan Qing doesn't want to defend Shangluo City anymore, what are you kidding, most of the people in Shangluo City are Wu Liang's cronies, just rely on Yao Gu's people, why fight with others, now the top priority is to quickly save Zhang Gong and leave, in short, he Yan Qing is dead here, and he can't leave General Zhang alone, otherwise how can he be worthy of His Royal Highness, how can he be worthy of the princess? Everything came too suddenly, and when Yan Qing shouted Wu Liang's words of rebellion, there were still some people who didn't believe it. But the facts are the facts, not for the transfer of foreign objects, watching Wu Liang's cronies storm the mansion, there are many familiar faces, so far, even if you don't believe it, you have to believe it. Yan Qing swore to fight to the death, but the people he could bring were really pitiful, let alone entering the palace, he couldn't even rush in at the entrance of the ya, and after a fight, his own soldiers died, and even he was injured in several places. Seeing that Yan Qing was about to be trapped and killed by the rebels at the Yamen, at this time he roared, "General Yan, wait a while, Yao will come." ”

It turned out that Yao Gu was here, but in fact, when Yan Qing sent someone to deliver the message, Yao Gu felt that something was wrong, and he waited in the West Camp for half an hour and didn't see Yan Qing go, so he was even more sure that something was wrong. Until he saw that there was a fire on the side of the mansion, he couldn't wait any longer, and led the Huaide battalion soldiers and horses under his command to rush over, but fortunately, Wu Liang put all his attention on Zhang Gong, and the army besieged the mansion, and Yao Gu led the troops to rush over without encountering any decent resistance along the way. Yao Gu's arrival finally saved Yan Qing's life. At this time, the soldiers of the Huaide battalion arrived, and Wu Liang was also a little anxious, "Send someone to block the entrance of the ya, no matter how much it costs, you must not let Yan Qing and Yao Gu rush in." ”

Just outside the mansion, the Huaide battalion and the rebels launched a bloody battle, and after about an hour, Yao Gu rushed forward and dragged Yan Qing, who was like a madman, back, "Brother Yan, let's withdraw, I just got the news that a large number of rebels have come around from the south, and if we don't leave, we will all be buried here." While the brothers can still fight, they must seize the north gate as soon as possible and rush out of the city. ”

"No...... The old general is still there, remedy the old general, Yan will definitely not leave" Where is Yan Qing willing to listen, why did he come to Shangluo, not for the old general? Let him leave the old general and run for his life alone, how is it possible?

Yao Gu gritted his teeth, tears oozed from the tiger's eyes, the situation is getting worse and worse, he has to take Yan Qing away, helplessly, he stepped forward, and a palm knife slashed Yan Qing, who was a little crazy. (To be continued.) )
