Chapter 294 The fight between trapped beasts

In the General's Mansion, Huo Guang was no longer as calm as before.

Although he tried hard to appear as if nothing had happened, his hands with exposed veins completely betrayed his disguise.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Come here, please quickly invite the Prime Minister, General Chariot and Cavalry, General Zuo, and Court Lieutenant... to enter the palace!"

After Huo Guang gave the order, he immediately ordered someone to wear armor for him.

Huo Guang's actions shocked everyone in the general's palace.

Even Huo Xian didn't dare to touch Huo Guang's brow.

Soon Huo Guang left the general's mansion with his helmet and armor on.

At this time, the servants had already prepared the carriage for traveling.

"Enter the palace!"

Huo Guang confessed, and the charioteer immediately urged the horses.

Wu Zheng and Su Fei, who were responsible for delivering the message to Huo Guang, were also taken into a auxiliary car and rushed to Weiyang Palace with Huo Guang.

…

In the Xuanshi Palace, the ministers who were informed by Huo Guang all looked at the silk books in their hands with serious expressions.

Everyone knows a storm is coming.

No one doubts the authenticity of what is said in the silk book.

"How does the Prime Minister think this matter should be handled?"

Uncharacteristically, Huo Guang first asked the Prime Minister Che Qianqiu.

Che Qianqiu looked at the silk book in front of him with a complex expression, "Your Majesty cannot be involved in this matter!"

Huo Guang didn't hesitate at all, "Of course it won't involve your Majesty!"

The words of the two big guys first set the tone for this matter.

Shangguan Jie said, "I'm afraid that the Wang family will take risks and the war will continue..."

Jin Rixi looked at everyone present, and then asked Huo Guang, "Where is General Weiyuan?"

Huo Guang said, "Now we have entered the East China Sea..."

Che Qianqiu took a long breath, "If Marquis Yunyang can control the East China Sea, things will not be out of control..."

Shangguan Jie frowned, "I don't know how many troops Marquis Yunyang will send?"

Huo Guang said, "There should be three hundred cavalry and six hundred officers..."

Che Qianqiu heard this and asked worriedly, "How many troops does Donghai County have?"

Huo Guang said, "Last year, Wei Xian reported that there were more than ten thousand soldiers in the East China Sea..."

Che Qianqiu said, "With nine hundred against ten thousand, there is no chance of winning!"

Shangguan Jie heard this and said, "Prime Minister, there is no need to worry. Wei Xian is just a rotten scholar. How can he be the opponent of Marquis Yunyang... From a certain perspective, the East China Sea must have fallen into the hands of Marquis Yunyang by now!"

Che Qianqiu said, "That's good..."

At this time, Jin Rixi said, "The Marquis of Yangping has been running Linzi for more than 20 years, and I fear that his power will not decline..."

Huo Guang nodded and said, "Not only that, the Hejian Kingdom should also fall under the control of the Wang family!"

Shangguan Jie frowned and said, "How does the general want to deal with it?"

Huo Guang did not speak, but asked, "What does General Zuo think?"

Shangguan Jie thought about it and said, "I think I can go to Hejian on behalf of the soldiers from the land... I can use the land of Liang and the soldiers of the East China Sea to go to Qi... What do you think?"

Jin Rixi heard this and said, "There may be something wrong with entering the river on behalf of the local soldiers!"

Having said this, he asked Huo Guang, "General, it is said that Wang's affair with the Huns is related to this?"

Huo Guang said, "This is indeed the case!"

Jin Rixi said, "In this case, we still have to guard against the Huns taking the opportunity to invade, so the soldiers in the border counties must not move lightly!"

Shangguan Jie thought for a while and said, "What General Chariot and Cavalry said is true. I made a miscalculation... How about dispatching the troops of Captain Changshui?"

Huo Guang said, "Chang'an's soldiers cannot save the fire from afar..."

Prime Minister Che Qianqiu frowned and said, "What other troops can be mobilized?"

Jin Rihui lowered his head and thought for a moment, "How about using troops from Liang to enter Hejian, and using troops from the East China Sea and Jibei to enter Linzi!"

Shangguan Jie said, "The soldiers of Jibei! Good luck...good luck..."

Jin Rixi continued, "Although Jibei belongs to the same land, it has always been at odds with the Tian family..."

Shangguan Jie heard this and said, "Is this happening?"

Che Qianqiu said, "It is true that the land of Jibei has been unwilling to respect the Tian family since the Tian family replaced Qi."

"Cherishing the Japanese invasion of Qi by the five kingdoms, Le Yi was able to quickly capture more than 70 cities in Qi, which also contributed to Jibei..."

After discussion, the princes of Chang'an finally decided to send troops from Liang to Hejian to guard against rebellion in the Hejian Kingdom.

The troops from Jibei Kingdom cooperated with Zhang Yue's troops from Donghai County to attack Linzi.

Before the imperial edict had reached the local area, a bloody storm broke out in Chang'an City.

This time the princes of Chang'an acted very decisively and ordered the city gates of Chang'an to be closed that day. They also ordered the Wuling area to be sealed off.

Subsequently, Qimen, Changshui, Huqi, and Lieutenant troops all set out one after another.

Nearly 20,000 people were arrested in just three days.

The nearly century-old arrangement of the Wang family in Chang'an was swept away.

The Tingwei Mansion interrogated the major criminals overnight.

The results of the interrogation made Huo Guang and others break out in a cold sweat.

No one expected that the Wang family would arrange such a deep arrangement. Although the officials with more than two thousand stones did not find anyone who was connected with the Wang family.

However, almost all the middle and low-level officials below, especially the virtuous and literary doctors in the court, were bribed by the Wang family.

If Zhang Yue were here, I am afraid he would sigh. No wonder when Wang Mang replaced the Han Dynasty, all Confucian schools were campaigning for Wang Mang and advocating the theory that "Han virtues have declined, and a new sage will rise."

…

When Chang'an Huo Guang and others took action, Zhang Yue also had complete control of Donghai County.

After some cleaning, the Donghai County soldiers were completely under his control, and he could send troops to Linzi as soon as the emperor's order came.

…

Linziyang Pinghou Mansion was also filled with a murderous atmosphere at this time.

Zhang Yue's control of Donghai County has spread to Linzi.

"Your Majesty, please raise an army. If you don't raise an army, it will be too late!"

The Wang clan members tried to persuade Wang Jin one after another.

Wang Jin couldn't help but feel agitated as he listened to the noisy sounds in his ears.

"Bang!" He snapped several shots and roared, "Noisy!"

Following his roar, the hall fell silent instantly.

Although Wang Jin was proficient in conspiracy and merchant skills, he had no talent in leading an army.

Not only did he not have any, but the entire Wang family also had no generals.

Wang Jin looked at everyone in the hall, turned to Wang Hong and said, "What do you think we should do?"

Wang Hong smiled bitterly and said, "I think that I, the Wang family, cannot just sit back and wait for death... I should imitate Lord Anping (Tian Dan) and rise up and fight..."

Wang Jin sighed, "Now that Donghai County has fallen into Zhang Yue's hands, Linzi may not be able to compete with Chang'an!"

Wang Fu asked at this time, "Master, can you contact Hejian, Huainan... all the countries to raise an army together?"

Wang Jin thought for a while and said, "We should contact Hejian. The other countries may not be able to succeed..."

Wang Hong said at this time, "It would be better to lead the Xiongnu soldiers southward..."

Wang Jin's eyes lit up when he heard this, "This is a good idea, but the soldiers in the border counties are strong, and the Huns may be powerless!"

Wang Fu said at this time, "Master, I think that if the Hejian moves... Chang'an will send troops to the Hejian. If the land is empty, the Xiongnu will take advantage of the ruins to enter..."

Wang Hong said, "Cai, this way our Linzi troops and the Xiongnu can attack the substitute troops... Even if the situation is unfavorable, I can retreat to the Xiongnu..."

Wang Jin thought for a while and said, "In this case, who would like to go to the Huns..."
