When Hou Mo Chen Lin led his army to Hanguangmen and took over Dou Dewei's command, he looked at the ruins under the flying snow and the miserable Guanlong soldiers lying scattered in the ruins. He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
My hands and feet feel numb.
In war, life and death are normal, and he has seen miserable corpses. However, a scene like the Shura Hell now was a shocking realization, making him feel his stomach twitching and feeling a little vomiting...
Taking a deep breath, Hou Mo and Chen Lin ordered: "Send out one unit to reach Hanguang Gate, occupy Honglu Temple and Taishe, and be prepared to defend the counterattack. I will personally lead the army to attack Zhuque Gate, and attack from both sides with friendly forces.
Leave five hundred people behind and clean up the mess immediately. We must clear Hanguang Gate as quickly as possible for the army to march."
I want to order the corpse of Pao Ze who died here to be collected again, otherwise in the chaos of war, it will soon become a ball of rotten flesh, blending into the bricks and mud water, no matter how difficult it is to clean up. But thinking that the current battle situation is urgent, every moment is
There was an urgent need to capture the Tai Chi Palace as quickly as possible, so we had no choice but to give up.
It is nothing to wrap their bodies in horse leather on the battlefield, but it is a pity that these robes died in the capital of the empire. In the future, no one knows whether they will be "sacrificially sacrificed to overthrow the cruel and pedantic prince", or whether they will be "treason that brings chaos to the imperial court and poisons the world"...
…
Hou Mo Chen Lin's heart was full of gloom and gloom. He immediately led his troops over the ruins of Hanguang Gate and headed towards the Suzaku Gate, the main entrance of the imperial city on the right. However, he did not dare to get too close. Hanguang Gate's earth-shattering earthquake
Xiang buried more than a thousand rebel soldiers. This determination to die together frightened the Guanlong rebels, but also boosted the morale of the Sixth Army of the East Palace.
People have very strange ideas. When a person is going to die, it is as difficult as heaven to think about it. But once thousands of people are controlled by emotions and become excited, they can really sit down and die generously, treating death as life.
If the defenders of Zhuque Gate are unable to keep watch, they will follow the example of Hanguang Gate and attack...
What's more, if they advance towards the Tai Chi Palace, and the defenders are unable to resist every place they reach, and when they retreat, they plant gunpowder and blow up the entire Tai Chi Palace to the ground bit by bit, then what should we do?
The children of the aristocratic family have received the best education, and have a broad vision and an agile mind. At this time, Hou Mo and Chen Lin have already thought of the worst result - even if the military remonstrance is successful in the end, the imperial city and Taiji Palace will be destroyed in one day. Then the people of the world, the history books
How would you evaluate the military remonstrance initiated by Guan Long?
I am afraid that there will be many people who break the promise and few people who will approve it.
Public opinion in the world is all in the hands of Confucianism, and Confucianism emphasizes "having faith and clear righteousness, advocating virtue and repaying merit, and governing the world." Although it is not opposed to "the simultaneous development of civil and military forces," it is extremely resistant to killing and killing.
What's more, this kind of military remonstrance was carried out, the center was destroyed, and even the entire Chang'an city was destroyed in the flames of war?
Don't talk about tampering with history books and covering up the truth. His Majesty Li Er is the most powerful person in the world and the most respected person in the Ninth Five-Year Plan. To this day, there are still books recording his dark history of "killing his brothers and forcing his father to abdicate."
His Majesty Li Er was furious, but what could he do?
Is it possible that someone could be convicted of what they said and kill all those who discussed the matter in private?
It is said that the people's mouth is better than the river. Blindly killing and toughing will not solve the problem. Even if the world is silent for a while due to cruel suppression, such cruel policies cannot continue endlessly, right? Wait until the people's wisdom opens up
, high pressure and slack, the rebound will only become more violent, and will eventually sweep everything away like a prairie fire.
…
In the Yanshou Square, Changsun Wuji endured the severe pain and let the doctor finish the treatment on his leg while he was covered in cold sweat.
The doctor was also sweating profusely. After bandaging, he washed his hands in a basin and wrote down a prescription. He handed it to the servant of the eldest grandson's family and told him to act according to the instructions in the prescription. Then he said nothing to the eldest grandson.
Ji said: "Zhao Guogong still needs to be careful. His legs are broken and his meridians are damaged..."
In the middle of his words, Changsun Wuji waved his hand to interrupt him, and said with a pale face: "I know my injuries well. Anyway, I hope my life is fine. As for whether I will be disabled or not, it doesn't matter. Someone, please send the doctor out."
He is nearly seventy years old. Although he is usually healthy, at this age, he just depends on the weather for food. If God lets you live for one day, you just eat one more mouthful of food. Maybe when the time comes, he will send the capricious general.
He was escorted away with his life.
What's more, it is a critical moment for the survival of the family. As long as there is one breath left, why do you care about whether a leg is lame?
Lying on the bed, he drove out all the servants and asked Yu Wenjie, "How is the situation at Hanguang Gate?"
Yu Wenjie had obviously just returned from Hanguang Gate. Panting from the dust, he bowed and replied: "When the defenders retreated, they buried a large amount of gunpowder in the Tibetan Soldier Cave, brought it to Dou Dewei and led his troops to occupy it, and then detonated the gunpowder...
…There were heavy casualties.”
Changsun Wuji looked gloomy and said in a deep voice: "Tell me in detail."
Yu Wenjie said: "The imperial city could not be captured for a long time, and the morale of the army was low. Therefore, when Hanguang Gate was captured, all the soldiers were extremely excited. They swarmed up, either climbing to the top of the city or entering from the city gate. They all gathered together.
It was near the gunpowder planted by the defenders, so when it was detonated, there were heavy casualties. I went to make statistics and found that the casualties were probably around three thousand, of which one thousand died tragically on the spot. The rest were injured, varying in severity, and some with minor injuries were still injured.
Okay, we have been evacuated and are being treated by doctors. Those who are seriously injured have basically no chance of survival."
"snort!"
Changsun Wuji snorted angrily and gritted his teeth: "Cheng Yaojin has given birth to a good son, but he actually inflicted heavy losses on our army with such violent behavior. I am really angry!"
Who would have thought that one moment they would be ecstatic about the Hanguang Gate being conquered, and the next moment they would be shaken by the tragedy of the world?
Yuwenjie remained silent.
The heavy damage this time was not due to the number of casualties. Guanlong gathered more than 100,000 troops to besiege the imperial city. Every day, the number of casualties was in the thousands. Although the number of casualties under Hanguang Gate was not small, it was not that many.
Let Changsun Wuji be so angry.
It's just that this explosion dealt a very serious blow to the morale and morale of the Guanlong army. If nothing else, when we attack the city gate in the future, the fearless and fearless momentum in the past will never be seen again.
After all, who is willing to risk his life to climb to the top of the city, only to be killed by gunpowder blasts before he can enjoy the honor of being "first to the top"?
Every time you attack a place, you must be careful to see if there is gunpowder buried under your feet. The impact on the morale of the army is immeasurable...
If Cheng Chubi were here right now, he would probably be eaten alive by Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji only felt that his injured leg was getting more and more painful. He must have temporarily alleviated the severe pain by pricking the acupoints with silver needles during the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, but now the effect dissipated and the severe pain came back again.
He endured the pain and trembled slightly, and said to Yu Wenjie: "I will hide the fact that I was injured for the time being. I will tell the doctor after I get out, so as not to cause a turmoil in the morale of the army."
Yuwenjie quickly responded.
If it is just that the morale of the army has been frustrated, the key point is that once the news spreads that Changsun Wuji is seriously injured and may even be disabled, it will inevitably make the people within the Guanlong clan panic. And when Fang Jun leads the army to return to reinforcements...
The feud between Guanlong and Guanlongmen is getting deeper and deeper, and it might be possible for them to fall apart completely.
Seeing the expression on Yu Wenjie's face, Changsun Wuji knew that he understood the power of it. He was a little relieved and said warmly: "I can't come forward at the moment, so you can temporarily handle military affairs on my behalf. If you encounter any major unresolved matters, come and report them. For ordinary things, think deeply.
You can make your own decision later.”
This is unparalleled trust.
Yu Wenjie was shocked, looked at Changsun Wuji in surprise, and quickly declined: "I have a humble position with few talents and limited experience, so how can I dare to exercise such power? But don't worry, Duke Zhao, I will collect war reports and military affairs outside, and come in every once in a while to ask for instructions."
He knew that this was Changsun Wuji's method to win over the Yuwen family, but at this critical moment, he was able to delegate power in such a way and entrust him with the task of admonishing soldiers. Even though he knew that he could never make any decision, he was still excited.
This comes from the affirmation from the most honored minister of Zhenguan, the leader of Guanlong... Who can be without some vanity?
Changsun Wuji nodded slightly, very satisfied with Yuwenjie's temperament of advancing and retreating. More than half of the people in the main hall outside were his close confidants. Even if Yuwenjie was given the right to make decisions, what decision could he make?
This is coaxing and testing.
When the pain was unbearable, when he saw that Yu Wenjie did not retreat, but looked like he was hesitant to speak, he couldn't help but wonder: "But there is still something important?"
