Chapter 223: Understand the overall situation
Do what you want, don't do what you want!
He knew that Chang'an was a fire pit now, Chen Ying decided to jump into it. In fact, Chen Ying was not entirely for Li Xiuning, but part of the reason was to make up for his shortcomings.
The Xuanwu Sect was blood flowing, and Li Shimin had a very bad start. From then on, the battle for the throne of the Tang Dynasty became even more bloody. Li Shimin killed his brother and imprisoned his father, and his son Li Chengqian also learned it in a similar way. It was a pity that Li Chengqian's five hundred armored soldiers were far less than the three thousand armored soldiers of the Qin Palace. Therefore, Li Chengqian failed.
Although Li Chengqian failed in history, Li Shimin's sons did not have many good ends. The violent internal friction caused the power of the royal family in the Li Tang court to wither. Later, when Wu Zetian changed dynasties, Li Tang could not come up with people who could balance Wu Zetian. However, in the Han Dynasty, Empress Lu was autocratic and was like the Lu family's world. However, Liu Bang left behind too strong and protected the Liu family's country.
Although Wu Zetian is known as the legacy of Zhenguan, it is an indisputable fact that Li Tang's strength is excessively flirting with internal strength. If the Li Tang court is still strong, with strong generals, and good ministers like rain. An Lushan and Shi Siming are like ants and they are just killing them.
Chen Ying doesn’t believe in fate. Since he can be a human being for two lifetimes, what else is impossible?
For China, the country and the country are inherited in an orderly manner and strive to control it within a controllable range is not a blessing, or it can break this traditional vicious circle.
After dispersing the Anxi Army, Chen Ying began to discuss the arrangements in Chang'an with Luo Shixin, Zhou Qing, Guo Luo, Asunasmo, Ma Zhou, Ma Mengming and others.
Chen Ying looked at the defense map of Chang'an City and said, "If there is an irreversible situation, then implement the "Sky" font plan!"
Chen Ying stayed in Chang'an and still had a brigade coach. Of course, these are all core forces and can serve as a backbone member for the death warriors. In addition, Chen Ying stayed in Chang'an, Liang Zan had already made Guanzhong's reputation as timely rain with the help of Luo Tong, the gold medal thug.
It would be nonsense to let the community rats and heroes under Liang Zan attack Li Yuan’s Tai Chi Hall, but they should be able to set fires or create chaos in the city.
The so-called "Tian" font plan is one of the escape plans deduced by the sand table. From the time Li Yuan issued the order to Chen Ying receives the message, it can be at least half an hour. Chen Ying needs to escape from Chang'an within half an hour. As long as he leaves Chang'an and changes horses continuously, Chen Ying is absolutely sure to arrive at Chenjiabao in up to three quarters of an hour.
However, under this circumstance, Li Yuan's imperial edict sent troops could barely inform the twelve guards of the army. However, with the mobilization speed of other Tang troops, Chen Ying had a chance to leave Guanzhong from the waterway. After the improved ship, the ship could pass through the Wei River and reach the Yellow River in two hours without hesitating manpower.
The so-called Tianzi scheme is actually a race against time. As long as you enter the Yellow River, Chen Ying can completely fight a time difference with Li Yuan. Before the imperial edict arrives, he will go down the river or go upstream. There will be enough room for movement left and right between advance and retreat.
Ma Zhou looked at Chen Ying's plan and shook his head and said, "Master, relying solely on the power of a brigade coach, there are probably many shortcomings. It is not as good as our people now, moving forward in the snow and moving forward in the past, in Liang, Gan, He, Sha, Jin, Ling, Qing, the former states, we acquired Hu merchants in the Western Regions along the way, and used our people to pretend to be caravans and secretly went to Chang'an!"
Ma Zhou's opinion is indeed feasible. After all, there are at least thousands of caravans on the entire Silk Road. Not all of these caravans are in the Western Regions, but some of them are staying along the way.
Ma Mengming shook his head and said, "It's probably too late to go. Since His Majesty appointed Li Jing as the chief executive of Liangzhou and took over Hedong's defense, he has strengthened control over merchants along the way. We have no chance to do anything!"
"Time!" Chen Ying patted his forehead and said, "Well, our people don't go to Chang'an from Hexi. The court is afraid of me, and the only ones that strictly control the Western Regions business roads should not be too cautious about Bashu. Then, I will order Liu Tong or Xunxiang to lead the soldiers of Beiwei Army in a mansion to disguise themselves and enter Guanzhong from Bashu or Gannan as quickly as possible!"
When Ma Zhou heard this, his eyes lit up: "This is possible!"
"That's good!" Chen Ying said: "I'll write a letter now!"
Ma Mengming shook his head and said, "Master, you don't need to write this letter!"
Looking at Chen Ying’s confusion, Ma Mengming explained: “Let’s find a reliable person, carry the tokens on the owner and send a verbal order to avoid being deemed!”
Chen Ying said laughing and crying: "Liu Tong, all my eyes are my heart..."
Ma Mengming continued: "Knowing people and not their hearts. The more you know this, the more careful the Lord must be!"
Chen Ying nodded and said, "Okay!"
...
In front of Ningyin Pavilion of Tai Chi Hall in Chang'an, Li Yuan held a hammer and pounded the ice surface in the lotus pond with great enthusiasm. Pei Ji said worriedly from the side: "Your Majesty, be careful!"
Li Yuan knocked on a piece of ice, and soon the fish in the lotus pond poked their heads out.
Li Yuan pointed to the fish that poked out of the water and smiled, "I scolded Xiao Yu in the court, just like going to the ice surface of the calm lotus pond. Just open a gap and it will be very lively!"
Pei Ji smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Xiao Yu has such a temper. Back then, he was demoted to the magistrate of Hechi County by Yang Guang because he did not say anything against his will. Xiao Yu said in the court yesterday, that's not right. Luo Yi has no intention of rebelling. His main force has indeed been cleaned up by the prince. He is now a lonely man. Do you expect the 500-part scripts around him to rebel? I really think that our Tang Dynasty court is paper-made!"
Li Yuan smiled and said, "Pei San, you have the heart of a prime minister. I believe in Li Yi, and I just hit him. I believe that he should know the severity of the prison disaster in the past two months, so I guess he should know the severity of it, so let the prince accept this favor."
Pei Ji immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at Li Yuan's calm and gentle look.
Li Yuan killed Dou Jiande, and Wang Shichong's death was counted on Li Yuan's head. Anyone with discerning eyes knew that if Li Yuan had not agreed to it, Dugu would never dare to kill Wang Shichong, nor would he be able to kill Wang Shichong.
If Luo Yi dies again, Du Fuwei may not be able to sit still. Du Fuwei is not the most deadly, but the most deadly one is Chen Ying, the great protector of the Western Regions.
Li Yuan took out a silk book and handed it to Pei Ji's hand, and smiled and said, "Pei San, come and see this first!"
Pei Ji looked at it and said in surprise: "Chen Ying's stamp?"
Li Yuan nodded.
Pei Ji read it carefully.
Li Yuan explained: "Chen Ying's plan is that the Western Regions are vast and the Western Regions Protectorate is in control of the Western Regions. There are many inconveniences. He plans to establish three towns, Tingzhou, Kucha and Shule, and divide the Western Regions, and the Anxi Protectorate is under the jurisdiction of the three towns."
Pei Ji praised while looking: "This strategy is very good and is a countermeasure to solve the Western Regions."
Li Yuan pondered and said, "I plan to try this with the prince!"
Pei Ji smiled.
...
In the East Palace, Li Jiancheng finished reading Chen Ying's memorial, closed the memorial, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and then replaced the memorial with Wei Zhengshou, sighed and said, "Xuancheng, what do you think?"
Wei Zheng sighed and said, "I think it doesn't matter. Has Your Highness ever asked His Majesty about this matter?"
Li Jiancheng said in surprise: "Xuancheng, do you think your Majesty will disagree with this matter in the Western Regions?"
Wei Zheng nodded solemnly and said, "That's true, Your Majesty may not agree, or this is the case. Your Highness must secretly tell General Chen that he must not go back to Chang'an."
Li Jiancheng looked at Wei Zheng in confusion and said, "Why is this?
Wei Zheng said: "If Your Majesty agrees directly to this matter, it means that although he is wary of General Chen, the matter is not irreversible. If Your Majesty refuses this proposal, General Chen will definitely suffer an unexpected surprise."
Li Jiancheng said anxiously: "Why are you still standing there? Send someone to notify Chen Ying!"
Wei Zheng cried to Li Jiancheng and said, "Your Highness, think about the current dilemma first. Since General Chen surrendered and asked him to return to Chang'an, Your Majesty will never deal with General Chen in Chang'an. Otherwise, Chang'an will become a den of a dragon's pond and tiger's nest. In the future, who dares to return to Chang'an? "
Li Jiancheng nodded and said, "No, it's just..."
Wei Zheng said anxiously: "Your Highness, there are two difficult things now. The New Year is approaching, and Your Majesty and the King of Qin will have a mother. Your Highness should write to Your Majesty and ask the King of Qin to return to Chang'an for the New Year!"
Li Jiancheng hesitated and said, "Is this necessary?"
"Yes, very!" Wei Zheng explained: "No matter how fierce the battle between Your Highness and the King of Qin is, at least he looks as gentle as a brother on the surface. Even if it is just on the surface, he will maintain it. Whoever can know the general will get the support of His Majesty!"
Li Jiancheng said in confusion: "Can you hear some wind?"
Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "What kind of news can there be? It's all the old tunes. The King of Qin is in Hedong, and it's time for the prosperity of the wind. At this time, it's better to call the King of Qin back to Chang'an than to put him in Hedong!"
Li Jiancheng suddenly realized: "Is... Erlang... really fighting... planning to separatist Hedong? Otherwise, he should submit a request to return to Beijing!"
"I will come back, but not now!" Wei Zheng said: "If the foundation is stable, he will definitely ask for it. It's just that the time for Hedong is not ripe, so we can't let the King of Qin be happy."
Li Jiancheng sighed and said, "No matter what, he is still my second brother!"
"Since ancient times, the royal family has no affection!" Wei Zheng said anxiously: "Your Highness, don't forget that you are not alone. Thousands of lives in our Eastern Palace are completely maintained by you!"
