"An army of three hundred thousand is not a small number. If we want to win, we must strike first before the army arrives at the imperial city!" Zhao Jin fiddled with several bottles of poisonous smoke on the test table and said to Liancheng:
"Master, to capture the thief first, capture the king. Why don't you let your subordinates go on a night march to capture the general and control the army."
There are 300,000 troops escorting the generals. How can outsiders capture the generals if they want to?
When Zhao Jin said this, he either overestimated himself or underestimated the 300,000-strong army.
But what he said was correct. As long as the general was captured, the army would not dare to rush into the imperial city rashly, and the initiative would be in their hands.
However, how to successfully capture the general is what Guan Jian is all about.
"You think the 300,000-strong army is a vegetarian!" Liancheng glanced at Zhao Jin and continued to prepare the poison in his hand, "The general wants to capture him, but he doesn't want to rush into the army and fight head-on!"
Next, Liancheng prepared the required poisonous smoke and miasma poisonous mist, and conveyed the plan to eradicate the army to Zhao Jin and Lin Feng.
Although the number of the 30,000 cavalry warriors is small, they are all elite. They are led by a five-man detachment of Zhao Jin, Lin Feng, Gao Qiu, Gao Su, and Gao Xiang.
Each team of Iron Knights is good at different strengths. As long as Liancheng arranges the plan, the five of them will take charge of other matters.
In the evening, at the end of the day, Gao Qiu returned to the underground city in the woods and reported to Liancheng one by one the direction of the army's advance and the 30,000 cavalry warriors on standby.
Gao Su and Gao Xiang led a team of troops back to the underground city to report their mission, and scattered all the black beans they purchased fifty miles outside the city, spreading the highly poisonous black beans for ten miles.
After getting the accurate information, Liancheng explained some matters, left the underground city in the woods, and returned to the imperial city to secretly visit Old General Ouyang.
After all, if he wants to fight against an army of 300,000 people, he simply cannot do it with his 30,000 cavalry warriors. Those small sections that are difficult to guard against can kill hundreds of enemies, leaving the 300,000 army facing difficulties and causing countless casualties.
However, that only stopped the army from attacking the imperial city. He needed more troops, on the one hand to fight against the army outside the city, and on the other hand to guard the palace, so as to cut off the legitimate cooperation between the rebels.
Liancheng disguised himself as an ordinary citizen and it was undoubtedly impossible for him to enter the general's palace. Therefore, he did not plan to enter the general's palace through the main entrance, but flew in from outside the courtyard wall.
He had been to the General's Mansion many times. Although he was not familiar with the road, it was not unfamiliar to him. He went to Veteran Ouyang's yard and study and found no one, so he thought of the training ground.
As far as he knew, Old General Ouyang liked to teach his grandson to practice archery at the training ground in his spare time. It took less than ten minutes to walk to the archery range from where he was.
Along the way, he avoided the servants of the General's Mansion and reached the training ground easily. As he expected, veteran Ouyang was standing at the edge of the training ground, instructing his teenage grandson on how to shoot arrows.
Although General Ouyang is over fifty years old, the general's majestic momentum has not diminished at all. He stands upright, like a standing pine and cypress, and looks even stronger.
Veteran General Ouyang went into battle and killed countless enemies. His skills were extraordinary, his acumen and vigilance were extremely high. As soon as Liancheng appeared on the training ground, he was discovered by the veteran.
Of course, with Liancheng's martial arts, it would be extremely easy to hide his aura from being discovered by the old general.
However, after he observed that there was no one else around, he did not hide his aura and deliberately let the old general discover it.
When the old general noticed that a stranger appeared on the training ground, he did not immediately ask sharply who it was, but just looked at the young man who suddenly appeared with sharp eyes.
His general's palace is heavily guarded, with guards patrolling everywhere in the palace. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to enter.
The young man in front of him was able to enter the house without being discovered by the guards. It can be seen that he is a martial arts practitioner and must not be an ordinary person.
He carefully looked at the young man walking towards him. He was an average-looking young man, wearing a plain gown and silk hair. He did not wear any gorgeous items, but he exuded a unique royal nobility in his bones.
Not like an ordinary person.
Liancheng was five meters away from Old General Ouyang, and moved his hand in front of him, seemingly carelessly playing with a white jade flute.
But when the white jade flute appeared in the sight of Old General Ouyang, the old General's face was startled, his sharp eyes filled with surprise, and his gaze fell on Liancheng's eyes.
Anything can be disguised, but those blue eyes cannot cover up the disguise. This is what makes Liancheng unique. No one can pretend to be him.
Old General Ouyang also knew this very well. When he saw Liancheng's white jade flute, he did not believe that the young man in front of him was Liancheng. But when he saw the blue eyes of the person in front of him, he confirmed that the person in front of him was the frontline soldier.
Prince Liancheng captured by the imperial army.
When the old general found out that the person in front of him was Liancheng, he was extremely shocked. He immediately stepped forward and wanted to salute. Liancheng supported the old general in a hurry and said, "Ouyang, there is no need to be polite!"
"Your Highness, you -" Old General Ouyang looked at Liancheng in surprise, and questions flashed in his eyes. Prince Liancheng appeared in the imperial city, so the news from the front line was false. Why did Prince Liancheng send false news? What did he do?
Purpose?
"Old General, it's a long story!" Liancheng knew what the old general was confused about, but now was not the time for him to explain, "Old General, I have something important to discuss with the old general. Let's go to the old general's study to discuss it!
"
Seeing Liancheng's serious face, serious expression, and a bit of anxiety on his brows, the old general didn't ask any more questions, let his eldest grandson continue to practice archery, and led Liancheng towards the study.
After entering the study, there were only two of them. Liancheng tested the old general first and made sure that the old general did not know about the rebellion of his two sons. Then he explained everything to the old general in detail and asked the old general to send troops to fight.
After the old general heard what Liancheng said, he couldn't believe that his two sons dared to raise an army to rebel. His two bastards were very ambitious and wanted to seize the right to lead the Ouyang family's army.
No matter how great the ambition is, it is just an open and covert struggle between a few brothers. How dare you commit the crime of genocide by raising an army to rebel!
He doesn't believe it and doesn't want to believe it!
This is what a father thinks in his heart. No matter how bad his son is, he will never believe his son and dare to commit the heinous crime of Jiuzhu.
"I know that this incident happened so suddenly that the old general couldn't believe it for a while. The old general might as well send someone to spy on it."
Even if he knew about this, he didn't believe it, let alone an old general. It was normal for an old general not to believe that his son was a traitor.
However, there was no extra time for the old general to digest the news he said. He hurriedly said: "Old general, time is pressing. After nightfall, the army will attack the imperial city. I also ask old general Ouyang to take on the important task of protecting our country.
."
As he spoke, Liancheng bent down and bowed, saluting Old General Ouyang. The Ouyang family held military power, Jane was in the heart of the emperor, and they had been loyal to the emperor for generations, so they could definitely afford Liancheng's gift.
Seeing Prince Yu condescend to salute him, the old general immediately helped Liancheng up and said in panic: "Your Highness, I can't afford it! Don't worry, Your Highness, those two people dare to do such a treasonous thing, I will never do it."
I won’t let them get their wish, and I will definitely deal with those two lives with my own hands!”
His Ouyang family has been loyal and loyal to the country for generations, and their reputation as a virtuous minister will be ruined by two incompetent sons.
If he doesn't clean up his family, how can he be worthy of the emperor and the people of the city? How can he have the face to face his ancestors a hundred years later?
After this incident, it is still unknown whether he will survive to tomorrow let alone a hundred years.
"If there is an old general, I will be at ease!"
Next, Liancheng and the old general discussed the plan in the study. Due to the urgent time, they could not mobilize a large number of troops at once.
However, Emperor Lianyun had made preparations before he fell ill. Although he sent a large number of troops to support him, the strength of the troops in the imperial city did not decrease at all. He had already asked Old General Ouyang to secretly send troops to guard the imperial city.
At present, the two sons of the old general are raising troops to rebel, which affects Lianyun Jiangshan. The old general is no longer hiding the fact that Emperor Lianyun secretly ordered him to lead the troops to lurk.
In order to dispel the suspicion of several princes in the court, these days, except for visiting the seriously ill Emperor Lianyun in the palace, he stayed in the palace.
The purpose was not to make the princes suspicious and speculate whether the emperor had secretly given him an oral order.
Moreover, there are several princes' spies everywhere outside the general's mansion, and his every move is under surveillance. If he wants to leave the mansion and lead troops, he must get rid of those spies.
The small matter of removing the informants naturally fell on Liancheng. After discussing with the old general, Liancheng left the courtyard the same way and used the fastest time to remove the informants lurking outside the general's mansion and provide convenience to the old general.
In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. After Liancheng came out of the Shogun's Mansion, the sky was already dark. The streets of Kyoto were brightly lit, with a steady flow of pedestrians, and it looked prosperous and peaceful.
Who would have thought that this peaceful and prosperous scene would soon be broken by a scene of bloodshed and bloodshed!
Looking at the pedestrians and bustle on the streets of Kyoto, Liancheng frowned deeply. When he thought of the cruel events that would happen next, he couldn't help but sigh.
He led troops to attack the dynasty, and many people have lost their homes and relatives! How many people have died in the war!!!
But now, instead of conquering other countries, civil strife has arisen due to overt and covert fighting among several brothers, giving other countries an opportunity to take advantage of it!
He clearly understood Long Chen's purpose of letting him out, but he would not let him succeed.
He wants to defeat the rebels, and he also wants to defend the country of Lianyun. He must not let the country of Lianyun fall into the hands of others.
Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Liancheng did not stay on Kyoto Street for half a minute, turned around and entered an alley, and flew away from the alley in the direction of the palace!!
