Wearing armor and wearing a pair of dark circles under his eyes, Li You looked as if he had done something improper.
It was as if his body had been hollowed out, and he felt a little frightened.
There was no way around it. Last night, at least six or seven explosions occurred in the city. This caused a lot of trouble for the King of Qi and his troops, who were originally high-spirited and intended to do something big.
The palace was bombed twice in a row, and then the Qizhou Yamen was also bombed, and the city gate was also bombed.
Originally, Li You thought of sending people to search house to house to see where the gang of thieves who rescued Quan Wanji were.
As a result, the explosion was extremely powerful and destructive, and it directly interrupted Li You's arrangement.
The rebels in the city were left running around like headless flies for most of the night, but they didn't even catch the murderer.
And the people were all huddled in various homes and shivering. Anyway, I don’t know how many people were praying for the blessings of gods and Buddhas.
I don’t know how many people are cursing those bastards who are not ethical and play with such dangerous explosives. They simply don’t give people a chance to rest.
As for Li You, the leader of the rebel group who needed to take charge of the overall situation, he was also bombarded to the point where he could not sleep a wink all night long.
This really made Li You furious, but there was nothing he could do about it. This was Qizhou, where his base camp was.
The people in the city are our own population resources and future source of rebels. After being manipulated like this, not only the morale of the army will be greatly reduced, but also the people of Qizhou will doubt their leadership and control.
This is what worries Li Youdan the most, but the question is, what can be done?
If you can't catch it, you can't catch it. Qizhou City is one of the largest and medium-sized cities in the Tang Dynasty, and the number of people under his command is only over three thousand.
Not only had to defend the city, but also the Qi Prince's Mansion and key departments, there was no way to control the entire Qizhou City, which gave the other side the opportunity to cause trouble in Qizhou City.
Although Li You had some doubts about whether it was that bastard Cheng Sanlang, but after thinking about it, it was unlikely.
After all, that guy is an order from Luoyang, how could he come to Qizhou to cause trouble?
Therefore, after reasoning, there is only one reasonable solution, which is that there is a detailed work sent by the father in Qizhou.
After knowing that they were going to rebel, they started trouble in the city with the intention of sabotaging their rebellion plan.
Just as Li You was sitting behind the desk, thinking wildly with dark circles under his eyes, the general guarding the west gate rushed over panting.
#####
"It's the soldiers and horses of Zhechong Mansion in Qizhou. They were divided into four formations and stationed outside the city. They were still spreading the word that His Highness was raising troops to rebel."
"Let the soldiers not obey His Highness' orders and disarm quickly..."
Having said this, the general raised his head and glanced at the dumbfounded King Qi. He did not dare to say anything more unpleasant later.
For example, if you let the soldiers put an end to the chaos and capture His Highness the King of Qi, it would be a great achievement and the reward would be thousands of dollars.
I have to say that one thousand guans, the general felt, was a bit too little. If it were 10,000 guans, he might give it a try.
"Where is Yan Hongxin?"
"General Yan... General Yan has been captured alive. I saw General Yan tied up and his soldiers on the top of the city."
"...Wang Zhong! You're an unfamiliar dog thief. Doesn't he want to die?"
Li You was furious. He struck the table and stood up, glaring fiercely at the general who defended the city.
"Wang Zhong has no more than a thousand soldiers and horses under his command. Since they are divided into four groups, there are only three to five hundred at most in each group.
Why don't you go out of the city, kill those thieves, and rescue General Yan and others."
The city guarding general wiped his sweat and said with a bitter look on his face.
"Your Majesty, there are not only the flags of Qizhou Zhechong Prefecture in the team, but also Wang Zhong said that Zuotunwei General Cheng Yaojin is leading his army. He is only a hundred miles away from Qizhou, and he is afraid that he will arrive in Qizhou soon. .”
"Lu Guo Gong Cheng Yao Jin?"
Li You's face, which was flushed with anger, turned pale in an instant. His anger was like being hit by a basin of ice water, and most of it was extinguished in an instant.
His eyes rolled in panic, he shook his head repeatedly, and muttered to himself.
"Impossible, how is this possible? I only had an idea last night and wanted to rebel."
"Why would he, Cheng Yaojin, lead his army in Qizhou?"
When several of Li You's confidants standing around heard this, they all had dark expressions on their faces, "Nima, my lord, can you be more reliable?"
If you have the idea to rebel, no one in the world will be able to seduce you with this operation.
But what can we do? We are all people who eat the food of Prince Qi's Palace. We are born as people of Prince Qi's Palace and die as ghosts of Prince Qi's Palace.
All they have to do is expose their buttocks and let His Highness the Prince of Qi take his private seal and stamp it with blue ink, proving that their quality is pure natural and pollution-free desperadoes produced by the Prince of Qi's Mansion.
King Qi didn't say he wanted to rebel. Even if he wanted to land on the moon, what else could everyone do besides shouting "666?"
After all, even if you want to run away now, you have to find a way. The four gates are blocked, and the city is full of His Highness King Qi's private soldiers and desperadoes recruited. It's strange that he can escape.
Li You's face was livid, and he couldn't figure out how the notorious veteran Cheng Yaojin could lead the Zuotunwei army here.
Well, it must be a lie. He must break such lies, expose them, and then let Wang Zhong and the Qizhou soldiers submit under his majesty.
After all, I have too few soldiers and horses under my command. If I can recruit one more person, I will have more strength.
Thinking of this, Li You made up his mind to go there in person to let these subordinates and the soldiers outside the city know the majesty and courage of his King Qi.
Li You held up his helmet and strode towards the hall door with a stern expression.
"I want to go take a look. That bastard Wang Zhong was most likely deceived by a villain and betrayed me."
In a short time, Li You led a thousand elite troops towards the city gate with murderous intent.
Arriving at the bottom of the city gate, Li You first climbed onto the city gate tower and looked at the hundreds of elite government soldiers who were lined up in battle formations and heavily guarded outside the city.
"Where is Wang Zhong? Come and see me at once!" Li You stood on the city wall and shouted sternly.
At this moment, Wang Zhong glanced at Cheng Jie and Li Min who were standing not far from him, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly.
"His Royal Highness King Qi, I am here. As His Majesty's biological son and respected as a prince, you have fallen down and been deceived by a traitor.
I hope you will wake up soon and don’t do anything wrong that will hurt your loved ones and make your enemies happy..."
"How dare you teach me a lesson?!"
Li You immediately got angry. I asked you to come to see me because I think highly of you. How dare you teach me a lesson? You are really tired of life, aren't you?
"Come here, open the city gate. I will personally kill that dog thief under his horse."
With a creaking sound, the west gate of Qizhou City slowly opened, just as the hundreds of soldiers outside the city stabilized their positions amidst the shouts of the generals.
Behind, there seems to be an endless sound of thunder, spreading towards this side...
