Chapter 132: The first battle in the capital begins

Soon, Zhao Changqing's troops came to the city.

He stationed his camp fifty miles away from the capital.

For now, anyone who dares to take the initiative to seek bad luck on him is tantamount to seeking death.

Inside the palace.

Because of the war, the funeral deadline for the Emperor of Wei has been postponed. Among all people, Changle has always been with his soul.

Now, all she has is choked with sobs and she can no longer cry.

She has also learned that her brother is not dead, but is still alive, and has led an army to the capital.

This somewhat eased her depressed mood.

Xuanzheng Hall.

It stands to reason that Zhao Changyuan has just ascended the throne, and now should be the most glorious period of experiencing imperial power, and he should be the happiest in his heart. However, because of the war, he has been frowning. If there is only one Zhao Changxuan, then it is not a worry at all.

The key is that now there is another unstable factor - his eldest brother, Zhao Changqing.

It can be said that it makes him even more worried!

"Zhao Changqing has arrived, and is now stationed in an open space more than fifty miles outside the capital. There are hundreds of thousands of troops! Have our people arrived in Jin?" Zhao Changyuan asked impatiently.

Zhong Qiu shook his head and replied: "Your Majesty, our people were sent over just the day before yesterday. It will take at least four days to reach the Jin Kingdom."

Zhao Changyuan frowned and said: "Then what should we do now? Reinforcements from various places have not yet arrived, but Zhao Changqing has already arrived first!"

Zhong Qiuzuo bowed and said: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious. Since Zhao Changqing is here in the name of Qingjun, the traitor Zhao Changxuan must be dealt with first."

Zhao Changyuan snorted coldly and said: "What you say is nice, what if he and Zhao Changxuan decide to divide the world equally and attack the capital together?"

"This..." Zhong Qiu hesitated, thinking that this was not impossible. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

Zhao Changyuan gritted his teeth and said: "I ordered people to spread rumors inside and outside the city, saying that Zhao Changqing colluded with the third prince and had the intention to devour the king! He has been hiding for many years and has finally become famous. It is impossible for him to get a reputation at this time.

unnecessary trouble!"

Zhong Qiu immediately bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this strategy is a brilliant one!"

Zhao Changyuan said at this time: "Let the Fourth Brother be careful during this period and order people to keep him under strict supervision. There is enough chaos outside the city, and I don't want chaos to break out inside the city.

If the fourth child is unconscious, find a way to kill him silently, and tell others that the third child did it."

Zhong Qiu didn't say much about this kind of thing. He just bowed and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhao Changxuan's camp.

Hearing that Zhao Changqing had come to the capital to set up camp, he felt anxious and quickly asked his subordinates, "Now Zhao Changqing has arrived outside the capital. He is coming with a fierce force. He has a cloud of fierce generals and a rain of counselors. The situation is extremely unoptimistic for us.

, in this situation now, we have to consider our options.

If we retreat south, we can retreat to the Shu Road and continue the attack, with a narrow escape from death. After all, I don’t know Zhao Changqing’s attitude yet.”

When all the soldiers heard this, they all frowned and headed to Shu Road. Where can you go to a place where birds don't poop? You can't go to Shu even if you go to Lingnan!

One of the counselors said: "Lord, we are not at that point yet. If Zhao Changqing really wants to attack us, it doesn't matter if he withdraws then.

The most important thing we should do now is to find out what Zhao Changqing means. I think we can send an envoy to form an alliance with Zhao Changqing, so we can help him achieve the throne."

Zhao Changxuan frowned and said, "You mean, pretend to stabilize Zhao Changqing first?"

The counselor said: "That's right, we are pretending to stabilize him. After the capital city is broken, we are planning to kill him. As long as we stabilize him, after some planning, we will definitely be able to win in danger."

Zhao Changxuan said solemnly: "Okay, I will leave this matter to you with full authority. I will entrust your life and fortune to your husband."

The counselor bowed and said: "In this humble position, Ding should do his best to repay the prince for his kindness!"

The counselor's name was Cui Qing, and the family behind him was a famous family.

This time, he planned to go to Zhao Changqing's camp in person.

At this time, Zhao Changqing was lying on a chair basking in the sun.

And Zhao Yun was already impatient to ask for a fight, "Your Majesty, when will we attack the city?"

Zhao Changqing closed his eyes comfortably and said unsteadily: "Have Cao Shen and the others arrived?"

Zhao Yun calculated the time and said, "I haven't returned to the prince yet. I'll probably have to wait until tomorrow."

Zhao Changqing nodded, "Then wait for today, until Cao Shen, Chen Qingzhi and others arrive, and then both sides will launch an attack together. Remember, there is only one goal, to capture the capital and destroy Zhao Changxuan in the shortest possible time."

Zhao Yunzuo bowed and said in a deep voice: "No!"

After a while, Cui Qing came.

Someone informed Zhao Changqing that an envoy from Zhao Changxuan was coming to see him.

He thought about it and felt that it didn't mean much if he didn't see him.

Asked Zhuge Liang: "Military advisor, what do you think the third envoy is here for?"

Zhuge Liang only answered with two words, "Seek peace."

Zhao Changqing nodded and ordered the soldiers around him: "Kill him and sacrifice the flag."

Everyone was stunned when they heard the sound, and Zhao Yun said: "Your Majesty, if the two armies are fighting and do not kill the envoy, then..."

Zhao Changqing sneered and said: "Why don't you kill the envoy? This is what I will do and kill the sacrificial flag."

This time, no one dared to persuade him.

Even Zhuge Liang chose to remain silent.

Cui Qing never expected that he would be killed in such a confused way before anyone saw him.

What does it mean to die before leaving the army?

This is!

When Zhao Changxuan found out about this, he was so angry while sitting in the camp that he overturned the table in front of him. He was so distraught that he said: "Give me back my military advisor! Give back my military advisor!"

Said over and over again.

He was afraid that others would not know that his military advisor was killed by Zhao Changqing.

He had the courage to remind him: "Your Majesty, we should make plans now. After all, it seems that Zhao Changqing will definitely deal with us."

After Zhao Changxuan snorted coldly, he said angrily: "What else are you planning to do? Burn the boat and fight! I will make Zhao Changqing pay the price! I will avenge the military advisor!"

Zhao Changxuan had already planned that even if he was defeated, he would be able to fight and retreat. Once the defeat was revealed, he would run away.

As for where to run, he definitely can't stay in Wei anymore.

Going to Shu Road was not a long-term solution, so he planned to leave the country if he really failed.

However, since he currently has 200,000 troops, he may not necessarily be defeated. After all, the brave will win when faced with a narrow road.

If you don't even have the courage to fight, how can you fight for the throne?

The soldiers Zhao Changqing brought here should be quite arrogant. Arrogant soldiers will definitely be defeated!

Thinking about it this way, it may not be impossible to fight with him.

In the palace, Zhao Changyuan felt relatively happy after learning the news about Zhao Changqing's killing of the envoy.

He smiled and said: "As a result, the boss and the third boss have reached the point where they are incompatible with each other. A war between the two of them is about to break out!"

Zhong Qiu also laughed and said: "Thanks to your majesty's great blessings and blessings from heaven!"

These words reached Zhao Changyuan's ears, which made him very happy and laughed several times.

During the funeral of the late emperor, he laughed like this in the palace. It had never happened before in the history of Wei.

However, neither he nor Zhao Changxuan expected what Zhao Changqing would do next:

At the beginning of the next day, Zhao Changqing personally led an army to attack Chang'an City.

Half an hour later, Cao Shen's army came from afar and launched a fierce attack on Zhao Changxuan's army without even taking a rest, catching him by surprise.

What is this called?

Yes, it seems to be called "the two blossoms of culture and style".
