Chapter 621 I am willing to die for His Majesty, but His Majesty is unwilling
Chapter 621
On that day, all the palace guards and bodyguards in the Dongdu Palace were forced to put down their weapons and leave the palace, replaced by the elite of Wagangzhai under Li Mi.
The guards and horses of the Eastern Capital had to return to their respective military camps to wait for orders after His Majesty's imperial edict was issued.
Lu Chu, the Zuo Beishen general, looked at the eunuch who stood in front of him tremblingly and read out the imperial edict, as well as the proud soldiers of Wagangzhai standing in the distance. At this moment, his heart was really full. It's cold.
Even some of the soldiers around him cried out in grievance. He and others were willing to risk their lives for the sake of the court and for His Majesty. As a result, these gang of dog thieves from Ziwaggang Village became the final winners.
Such a result was really unbearable. Some soldiers angrily threw down their weapons on the spot, took off their helmets and threw them on the ground. "I am no longer worthy of being a soldier."
"General, damn, we are so aggrieved... What should we do now? Are we really going to let these gang of thieves sit on our heads and shit on us?" A general looked at him with an indignant look on his face. The eunuch who announced the decree left surrounded by the soldiers of Wagang Village.
Lu Chu also really wanted to throw away his helmet and weapons and go home and pull him down, but there was so much anger and grief in his heart that he couldn't express it.
In order to save His Majesty, I and these over ten thousand soldiers risked their lives, but as a result, Your Majesty actually reached an oath with Li Mi, a thief with ulterior motives, and even expelled all the palace guards and bodyguards from the palace.
Is such a majesty still worthy of the allegiance of myself and my brothers?
"That's General Tian, General Tian is here..." At this moment, he heard the greetings from the brothers beside him. Lu Chu looked up and saw Tian Cha coming quickly with a look of sorrow and anger.
"General Tian, what is the situation in the palace?" Lu Chu strode forward and asked Tian Yan.
"What else can we do? His Majesty asked us to release the palace restrictions and not to resist. We can only put down our weapons before we can leave..." Tian Chao said with a face full of sorrow and despair.
"We are willing to die for His Majesty, but Your Majesty is unwilling..."
#####
"General Lu, the palace is now full of bandits from Wagang Village. We have no way of knowing your majesty's safety." Tian Chao's eyes fell on Lu Chu's ugly face.
"Your Majesty, alas... His Majesty did this, presumably because of your Majesty's difficulties."
A wounded general beside Lu Chu immediately became anxious. "General, what should we do? Are we not going to avenge General Duan, General Zhao, and those dead brothers?"
"Do we really have to go back to the military camp and wait for those bandits from Wagang Village to humiliate us? Rather than staying here, it's really better... eh? It's better for me to go east."
Everyone's eyes fell on this person. Seeing this guy, he felt guilty for a while, and his neck tightened again.
"Instead of being here and being humiliated by Li Mi's gang of rebellious ministers and traitors, it is better to surrender to the king of Tang and become a soldier of the Suppressing and Fu Army. At least the Suppressing and Fu Army killed many Wagangzhai thieves for us. They will definitely not surrender to Wagang Village. Gangzhai thieves."
"..." Ouch, this suggestion seems a bit generous. The eyes of the bloody men who were filled with resentment and resentment, and who were very unwilling to be lower than the dog thieves in Wagang Village, suddenly brightened up.
"General Lu, the last general..." Tian Wei first turned his head and looked around, then lowered his voice. "The last general is not willing to accept the cowardice of those treasonous thieves. His Royal Highness, the Prince of Tang, is on the same level as the thieves in Wagang Village.
"
"It will be more comfortable and satisfying for me to surrender to him than to stay here. The Tang Dynasty has become so powerful, but at least he is willing to avenge the late emperor, which is much better than the capricious Li Mi who betrayed his master and killed his master."
Lu Chu looked at the eager eyes around him and knew that these people were probably thinking the same thing as Tian Cha.
"Well, since all the brothers are willing to do this, then order the brothers to assemble the army. I remember that the east gate should still be in the hands of General Yu. We will leave the city through the east gate."
"Promise!" Tian Wei and a group of generals agreed excitedly, then returned to the team and began to give orders.
Zhao Junde looked pleased with himself. At this moment, after receiving the imperial edict from the little emperor, the officers and soldiers in the court opposite had all become dejected. They no longer looked like an army, but more like a temporary guard of honor going to eat a white wedding meal.
The lord has already captured the palace city, and the little emperor has been controlled by the lord. I believe that it won’t be long before the lord will start to confer meritorious officials on a large scale. And how can he, the general who kept Yemen intact, be promoted to the top?
Only Level 3 is correct.
Maybe, he could become a general of the Sixteenth Guards, and maybe he could be awarded a title or something. The more he thought about it, the more flattered Zhao Junde became, and a smile filled his face involuntarily.
"General, general, look at them. Those officers and soldiers have retreated." The soldiers beside him heard a low voice of joy. Zhao Junde raised his head and saw that nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers were already lined up in order, and then they drove straight east.
go.
"What do you mean? Isn't their military camp in the south? Why are they heading east?" A general next to him couldn't help but be a little stunned.
"General, should we go there..."
#####
Zhao Junde almost burst into laughter. "I said General Liu, why don't you go and ask, or can you lead the way for them?"
The general surnamed Liu looked at the dead and injured brothers beside him, and after thinking about it, he shook his head resolutely. "The general will not pass. Anyway, as long as they don't invade the palace."
Zhao Junde rolled his eyes at this general who was finally not stupid enough to rush into the group of officers and soldiers to chirp at him, and said angrily.
"Our duty is to guard the gates of the imperial city. As for where those officers and soldiers go, the lord will send people to deal with them."
Two-quarters of an hour later, at the Upper East Gate on the east side of Dongdu, at this moment, General Yu Wenying of the Right Jinwu Guard, leading his soldiers and horses, was repeatedly charging at the thousands of Wagangzhai soldiers and horses who were trying to seize the gate. With the arrival of more than ten thousand officers and soldiers,
The general of Wagangzhai, who was leading his army to seize the gate, saw that the momentum was not right and quickly led his army to withdraw south.
Before Yu Wenying had time to properly thank Lu Chu for leading the army to come to the rescue, she was so shocked that she was speechless for a long time by the news brought by Lu Chu and others.
But soon, Yu Wenying also made a decision. After all, the armies of Dongdu had been fighting with the soldiers and horses of Wagangzhai for a long time, and they didn't like each other. Now, Li Mi has taken control of Dongdu, and His Majesty has become a pawn in Li Mi's hands.
Do I, the officers and soldiers who have a life-and-death feud with the soldiers of Wagang Village, still stay here, waiting to be humiliated by the soldiers of Wagang Village?
Yu Wenying made the decision almost without hesitation, and except for a few soldiers under his command who were unwilling to leave and just wanted to take off their armor and become ordinary people in Dongdu, most of them were willing to join this army and join the Suppression and Fu Army.
Big team.
The Wagangzhai general who was killed by Lu Chu's army and fled southward led his army to the bank of Luoshui River without looking back. Then he reorganized his army in shock and sent for help.
At this time, at the east gate gate, General Lu Chu on the left, General Yu Wenying on the left Jin Wuwei, and Tian Zhao on the right general on the prison gate, led more than 13,000 officers and soldiers who were unwilling to surrender to Wagangzhai and left the east gate.
They all headed towards the direction of Luokou Cangcheng.
