Chapter 104: The army is crushing the city, the government and the opposition are in uproar, my rule
Shankui Military Camp, Gangneung County.
This is one of the nine military camps in Daxia.
Near Gangneung County.
This is an important transportation area between the north and the south, as well as an important trade area. It must be guarded by military camps and plays a great strategic role.
If there is a problem in the north, Shankui Military Camp can provide immediate assistance, including troops, horses, food, logistics and other issues, and can be deployed here.
Naturally, this military camp is extremely important.
Within ten miles of the military camp, there will be sentries to supervise and no other people are allowed to enter.
But as two figures appeared, they stirred up rolling yellow sand, and instantly attracted an elite force to rush to stop them.
"In the Daxia military camp ahead, private individuals are not allowed to trespass."
"Who is coming?"
The young soldier at the head shouted loudly.
Stop the two from moving forward.
His eyes were like those of an eagle, and he saw clearly the appearance and clothing of the two men, and knew that they were not ordinary people, so he did not act too fiercely.
Otherwise, if it had been someone else, I'm afraid they would have already set up the bow.
"I am the grandson of Duke Zhen Guo, Gu Jinnian."
"I am taking my grandson Li Ji with me to follow His Majesty's orders."
"There is civil strife in Jiangling County, and we are ordered to mobilize troops."
"Send a hundred thousand troops quickly to follow me to suppress the civil strife."
The voice sounded.
Loud as a bell.
Not far away, the expressions of this elite group changed drastically.
Civil strife broke out in Gangneung County?
They don't know what civil strife is, but the word civil strife basically means rebellion.
This is a big deal.
"The grandson of Duke Zhenguo?"
"His Royal Highness?"
"Your Highness Taisun?"
The leading general did not dare to be careless and quickly came to Gu Jinnian and got off his horse.
"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Meet His Highness Taisun."
"Can I show you the command arrow?"
When the young general opened his mouth, he did not dare to make excuses and directly dismounted to greet him.
However, Gu Jinnian didn't waste any time and threw a lot of command arrows directly in front of him.
"The Daxia Golden Order, the Duke's Silver Order, the King of Qin's Order, and the Secret Order of the Hanging Deng Division are enough to prove the identity of this prince."
Gu Jinnian was very direct. He had a lot of tokens with him, but he didn't have his own token. After all, he hadn't reached the championship yet and didn't need such a thing for the time being.
As for what Li Ji suddenly thought of, he immediately threw out a golden token and said.
"This is my father's crown prince order, please check it quickly."
Li Ji spoke up and said this.
Seeing so many tokens on the ground, the soldiers were all speechless.
Good guy, so many tokens? Just one of them is a big deal.
Several people picked it up and after looking at it for a while, they were basically sure.
No one dares to forge such arrows.
At that moment, the young soldier didn't hesitate and spoke directly.
"Your Highness, the matter of troop deployment needs to be discussed with the general."
"General Shankuiying is the former general of Duke Zhenguo. His Royal Highness is coming with me."
The latter opened his mouth and specifically mentioned that the garrison general was related to the Duke of Zhen.
As soon as he said this, Gu Jinnian nodded and followed directly without any further words.
Soon, everyone stopped talking nonsense and rushed directly towards the military camp.
Enter the military camp.
A chilling atmosphere filled the air. There were 300,000 troops in the entire Shankui military camp, not counting the logistics personnel. If we did, the number would be almost double.
"drink!"
"drink!"
"drink!"
Loud shouts rang out one after another. Not far away, thousands of people were training. They were all wearing battle armor and practicing martial arts without any laziness.
military camp.
The foundation of the country.
The training is extremely strict in order to protect the country.
Under the leadership of the other party.
Finally arrived at the camp.
However, Gu Jinnian and Li Ji are temporarily unable to enter and need to be notified.
After standing outside the military camp for a moment.
A hearty laughter could not help but sound.
"Is it the new year of Jin?"
Laughter rang out, followed by a figure walking out of the military camp.
He is a middle-aged man, tall and tall, wearing iron armor, like an iron tower.
He walks like a dragon and moves like a tiger, exuding a powerful aura, with a Chinese-character face that is extremely majestic. Even with a smile, he gives people an extremely powerful sense of oppression.
This is the general guarding the Shankui military camp, Wu Wangzhi.
"Jin Nian met the general."
Seeing the visitor, Gu Jinnian bowed his hands in greeting.
But Li Ji on the side didn't make any courtesy. He was the grandson and the superior, so it was impossible for him to make a courtesy to the people below him.
"Jinnian nephew."
"I never thought I would see you in the military camp one day."
"This is really unimaginable."
"I have met His Highness Taisun."
Wu Wangzhi looked at Gu Jinnian and laughed heartily, but when he saw the Queen Mother, he also shouted respectfully without any overstep.
"General Wu."
"According to His Majesty's decree, we are here to mobilize our troops."
Gu Jinnian did not hesitate. He needed to mobilize his troops quickly and without any hesitation.
As soon as this statement came out.
Wu Wangzhi's expression did not change, but he invited the two people to enter the camp.
At this moment, Gu Jinnian and Li Ji walked into the camp.
As the two of them entered.
Wu Wangzhi's voice immediately sounded.
"Jin Nian."
"Who bullied you?"
He asked directly, looking at Gu Jinnian and saying this.
"No."
"Uncle, my nephew is just following orders."
Gu Jinnian spoke.
"well."
"Jinnian, your decree is wrong. The matter of troop deployment cannot be accomplished by an imperial decree."
"You need half of your Majesty's dragon talisman and half of the military talisman's tiger talisman to mobilize the army."
"One imperial edict cannot mobilize an army of one hundred thousand."
"I see anger in your eyes. I think you are in some trouble. Why don't I send a thousand elites to protect your safety and then give you my general order? I think no one will come looking for you in Jiangling County."
You are in trouble."
Wu Wangzhi spoke up.
It wasn't that he didn't help Gu Jinnian, but that what Gu Jinnian did was completely breaking the rules.
How could an imperial edict mobilize a hundred thousand troops?
To mobilize troops, you need half of His Majesty's Dragon Talisman, plus half of the Tiger Talisman of the Ministry of War. Otherwise, with an imperial edict, if someone forges the imperial edict, wouldn't it be a mess?
Of course, he believed that Gu Jinnian would not forge an imperial edict, but rules were rules.
"General."
"The imperial edict is here. This is His Majesty's will."
"In the army of one hundred thousand, not a single one should be left behind."
"If the court blames you, general, my nephew will definitely exonerate the general by putting his head on his neck."
"Besides, my grandson is also here. If something happens, it will be our fault and the general cannot be blamed."
Gu Jinnian remained determined.
He needs an army of 100,000 men.
No one should be missing.
"Nephew Jinnian, this is not a crime that is not free of charge. It is a crime of beheading to mobilize troops at will. Nephew Jinnian, you and your grandson have not yet reached the crown, and you have made a huge mistake. It is your uncle who is unlucky.
ah."
He spoke.
This matter was too difficult for him.
"How about I send three thousand additional cavalry to follow you?"
The other person spoke.
As Gu Jinnian, being protected by a thousand cavalry is not a big problem, he also has this power.
If we add the imperial edict, the problem of three thousand is not big.
At least it can solve some of the trouble.
However, Gu Jinnian did not say much, but placed the imperial edict in front of the opponent's table and spoke slowly.
"Uncle, please read the contents of the imperial edict first."
Gu Jinnian spoke calmly.
He knew that it was almost impossible to mobilize a hundred thousand troops with an imperial edict.
But since he dared to come, he also had confidence.
The latter frowned slightly.
But he still unfolded the imperial decree. He knew that it must be an imperial decree, but he also knew one thing, that is, since His Majesty allowed Gu Jinnian to mobilize troops, he would definitely hand over the Dragon Talisman and Tiger Talisman to Gu Jinnian.
Otherwise, it would be unreasonable to mobilize 100,000 soldiers with the help of an imperial edict.
However, when the imperial edict was unfolded.
Wu Wangzhi's expression changed instantly.
The content of the imperial edict is very simple.
Cooperate with Gu Jinnian to arrest Jiande.
Yes, arrest Jiande.
As long as he writes about the remnants of Jiande, his face will not become so ugly.
But Emperor Jiande was different.
This is the person your Majesty wants to catch day and night.
Not to mention an army of 100,000, even an army of 200,000, as long as they can be captured, they will do so at any cost.
"Is this imperial edict true?"
Wu Wangzhi looked at Gu Jinnian, his eyes full of questioning.
If this imperial edict is true, then he really needs to think about it carefully.
After all, he would not send troops for any reason.
But when it comes to Emperor Jiande, it's really hard to say.
If it is true that he did not send troops and wasted time, Your Majesty will blame him and he will die without a burial place.
If it is false and he sent troops, although he will be punished, the big problem is Gu Jinnian and Taisun. It is not difficult for him to exonerate himself.
The old man, the Duke of Zhenguo, will not stand idly by.
Therefore, he did not dare to gamble.
But the person who came was different, it was Gu Jinnian.
If it was the Duke of Zhenguo, he would send troops directly without saying a word.
"General Wu."
"My eldest son and His Highness the Grand Sun came forward in person, is there any lie?"
"The imperial edict can be forged, so can our identities be forged?"
"General, I came to Jiangling County on a special mission from His Majesty to capture Jiande and deliver him to Kyoto."
"If you delay the opportunity, even if my nephew wants to say good things for his uncle, it will be useless. You know His Majesty's temper. Emperor Jiande is the person Your Majesty wants to see the most."
When Gu Jinnian spoke, he spoke every word with firm eyes.
An imperial edict.
An army of 100,000 cannot be mobilized.
That's right.
But we also need to see what kind of imperial decree it is.
Jiande.
He is the person that the Emperor of Daxia most wants to see, and this matter is also known to all officials.
Anyone who can seize Jiande may be granted the title of Marquis.
This is no joke.
this moment.
Wu Wangzhi's expression changed slightly.
He is measuring.
I'm also confused.
After a while, Wu Wangzhi took a deep breath and said.
"Can you wait for a day? I'll send someone thousands of miles away to hurry up and ask Your Majesty."
"It's enough to go back and forth within one day. If you get His Majesty's consent, we will send troops immediately."
Wu Wangzhi spoke up.
Although he still didn't agree directly, he was already shaken.
"Now or never."
"Back and forth."
"It's enough for Jiande to escape. I can't bear this responsibility."
Gu Jinnian didn't give the other party any time to think about it.
Put the pressure on Wu Wangzhi.
got this reply.
Wu Wangzhi finally breathed out.
Then he spoke.
"Here comes someone."
As the sound rang out.
In an instant, two soldiers walked in.
this moment.
Wu Wangzhi threw out a military talisman and said seriously.
"Urgent mobilization of one hundred thousand troops."
"Go out with the crown prince to suppress Jiangling County."
"Let the Crown Prince take the lead and obey the Crown Prince's orders."
Wu Wangzhi shouted loudly.
The two soldiers took the talisman without any hesitation.
"Follow orders."
After saying this, the two turned and left.
Li Ji's eyes were even more shocked.
As for Gu Jinnian, he seemed extremely calm.
"Thank you, General."
Gu Jinnian spoke and thanked the other party.
"Jin Nian."
"The Duke is kind to me, so I won't investigate this matter in detail."
"But if a hundred thousand troops are dispatched, the court will definitely know about it as soon as possible."
"You have to be prepared for everything."
Wu Wangzhi spoke up.
He didn't say much. If this was really His Majesty's will, then he would be considered a meritorious service. If it was not His Majesty's will, Gu Jinnian and his grandson would be the unlucky ones.
You will be punished, but not severely.
The word Jiande.
Enough to offset everything.
"Thank you."
Gu Jinnian nodded, knowing that he was playing with fire.
But he just wanted to burn this fire completely.
It was so burned that the court had to pay attention to this matter.
Boom boom boom.
Soon, the entire military camp was completely in motion, with batches of soldiers wearing iron armor and war horses gathering.
Many soldiers did not understand what was happening, but in front of military orders, no one dared to act recklessly.
All soldiers, get ready to go.
Fortunately, we are not pressed for time.
Within half an hour, the 100,000-strong army was completely assembled.
The baggage and logistics can be reduced appropriately. After all, this is not an expedition.
everything's ready.
Ten generals walked into the camp.
"Jin Nian."
"These two are my most capable assistants, Xu Jin and Wang Peng. If you have any questions, you can directly give them orders."
As the ten generals arrived, Wu Wangzhi immediately introduced them.
"I've met the crown prince."
"Your Highness, the troops and horses are ready and ready to go to war at any time."
The two of them immediately bowed to the Crown Prince.
"good."
"Nephew, I won't exchange pleasantries. I would like to thank Uncle Wu."
When people arrived, Gu Jinnian didn't hesitate. After thanking Wu Wangzhi again, he took Li Ji away.
Then Wu Wangzhi's voice sounded.
"In everything, the crown prince is the priority, and military orders must not be violated."
He spoke.
Emphasized.
Everything is led by Gu Jinnian, and the 100,000-strong army must obey Gu Jinnian's arrangements.
As soon as this statement came out.
The ten generals responded in unison.
And after everyone left.
In the military camp.
Wu Wangzhi couldn't help but sit on the main seat, looking thoughtful.
At this moment, a figure walked in, it was a military advisor.
"General."
"Dispatching an army of 100,000 people is no small matter. It cannot be done just by relying on an imperial edict."
"Do I need my subordinates to send someone to Kyoto to seal it?"
"My subordinates suspect that they are forging an imperial edict without permission."
The military advisor came over with a somewhat ugly look on his face.
It was unheard of to dispatch an army of 100,000. It was not a war period, so how could it be possible that so many soldiers and horses were needed?
"Need not."
"Gu Jinnian and Taisun, plus this imperial edict, are enough to mobilize."
"If you ask, it will only increase the trouble."
"If you don't ask, you are guilty of ignorance. Besides, Gu Jinnian is really smart and uses his virtue to suppress me."
"Let's not get involved in this matter."
"Whoever interferes will die."
Wu Wangzhi spoke out, his face looking very ugly.
When the military advisor heard this, he looked a little unhappy.
"General, do you want to inform the county guard?"
He continued to ask.
"don't want."
"You can't interfere in this matter at all."
"The officials of Bailu Mansion are really stupid. They have all kinds of ways to hinder Gu Jinnian, but they choose to use this method."
"You're still smart."
"The army has already set out to fight. It is the wisest way not to touch anyone."
"However, this Jiangling County is going to be a river of blood."
He spoke.
Gu Jinnian's resolute eyes couldn't help but appear in his mind. He knew something big was going to happen.
"Rivers of blood? Is it possible that His Highness dares to kill the prince?"
The military advisor frowned and said this.
"Fu Jun?"
"Do you believe he dared to kill the county governor?"
"Do you know what I'm most worried about right now?"
Wu Wangzhi took a deep breath, what does killing a prince mean?
It's really not a big deal for a hundred thousand troops to kill a prince.
"What do you mean, General?"
The military advisor was a little curious.
"A vassal king has entered with his troops."
Wu Wangzhi's palms trembled slightly.
This is what worries him the most.
He also knew exactly what happened in Jiangling County, and he also knew who was involved behind it.
If Gu Jinnian continues his investigation like this, he will definitely find out something shocking.
And some people can't sit still.
When the time comes, something truly horrific will happen.
That was what he least wanted to see.
"The feudal lord is entering?"
"Then general, why did you agree to mobilize troops?"
The military advisor didn't understand.
"You didn't see Gu Jinnian's eyes. If I didn't agree, he would have more ideas and expose me."
"I can only agree."
"What we need to do now is to ignore everything and send a hundred soldiers to supervise him at all times. I will always pay attention to what Gu Jinnian does, do you understand?"
He spoke out, and after saying this, he stopped talking.
at the same time.
Outside the military camp.
One hundred thousand troops filled an open space directly.
On top of the war horse.
Gu Jinnian looked at the army and couldn't help but feel deeply in his heart.
In the past, when he read history books, he didn't feel much about millions of armies going out to war, or millions of armies fighting each other.
But now, looking at these 100,000 troops, an indescribable feeling of shock came over me.
This feeling is hard to describe.
One hundred thousand.
This number may not seem like much, but when it actually appears in front of you, you will realize how terrifying an army of 100,000 is.
Thirty thousand cavalrymen create a murderous atmosphere.
Fifty thousand infantrymen all have firm eyes.
Ten thousand crossbowmen, melee knives and long-range crossbows.
Ten thousand armored soldiers, under the sun, are like a group of invincible beings.
Gu Jinnian was shocked.
Li Ji was also extremely shocked. At this moment, he completely understood why his grandfather wanted to go out to fight.
This damn thing is too hot-blooded, right?
When he came to the front of the army, ten generals were guarding him on the left and right.
"His Royal Highness, the army is fully prepared and waiting for the Crown Prince's order."
Xu Jin, who was on the left, opened his mouth and asked Gu Jinnian.
"Pass the order."
"Forty thousand infantrymen marched straight to Bailu Mansion as quickly as possible."
"Ten thousand infantrymen are left to blockade the capital of Jiangling County. They are not allowed to enter or exit freely. Anyone who enters or exits without military orders without permission will be killed without mercy."
"Send another five thousand elites into the city, detain all officials, conduct a thorough investigation of their family background, and immediately control the capital's official document warehouse. No one is allowed to break in without permission, and anyone who disobeys the order will be killed."
"If the eucalyptus document warehouse is burned down, the officers and soldiers will be inspected and beheaded in public, and they will all be seated together."
Gu Jinnian spoke.
With a cold look on his face, he issued the first military order.
As soon as these words came out, a look of astonishment flashed through the eyes of the generals.
No one expected Gu Jinnian to be so cruel.
Anyone who comes in or out, kill!
Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!
Those who fail to protect themselves will be killed!
And they were still sitting together, extremely brutal.
However, it is indeed true that kindness does not control soldiers.
"Follow orders."
The partisan general spoke up and without any nonsense, he directly led 10,000 elite infantrymen to the capital of Jiangling County.
The rest of the army.
Then he rushed directly towards Bailu Mansion.
The army sets off for battle.
Yellow sand stretches to the sky, the earth rolls and the mountains shake.
Thousands of troops and horses, the momentum is extremely majestic.
And at this time.
The only way to reach Bailufu from Jiangling County.
Hundreds of cavalry were fighting with Su Huaiyu and others.
Because they were not allowed to hurt anyone, the three of them were greatly restricted.
You can only retreat but not advance.
Fortunately, the three of them are very powerful and the problem is not big. They are responsible for delaying the time.
However, at this moment.
Rumble.
Rumble.
Like an earthquake.
Everyone stopped fighting and looked over, their eyes full of curiosity.
However.
next moment.
The yellow sand filled the sky, and densely packed iron cavalry appeared, filling the air with a terrifying murderous aura.
In an instant, these hundreds of cavalrymen were stunned.
Before they could react, a thunderous voice sounded.
"Take them all down."
The voice sounded.
It's Gu Jinnian.
No nonsense.
How can there be an egg under a large army?
The elite troops sent by Xu Ping were simply unable to resist such a terrifying army.
He didn't even have the courage to fight, so he just surrendered.
After capturing the people, the army set off again.
Su Huaiyu and the other three were also completely shocked.
They knew that Gu Jinnian left suddenly and must have something to do, but what they didn't expect was that Gu Jinnian would be so violent?
Move an army of 100,000?
What is this going to do?
"How many troops have you mobilized?"
Su Huaiyu swallowed.
He has seen madmen.
I have never seen such a crazy person as Gu Jinnian.
At first glance, there are tens of thousands of iron cavalry alone, right?
This kind of force, if placed on the border, could fight the Huns for three months.
"One hundred thousand."
Gu Jinnian spoke calmly and told Su Huaiyu.
After receiving this answer, Su Huaiyu nodded, and then said slowly.
"Then I really have to inform Marquis Linyang to have another one."
This is Su Huaiyu’s answer.
Mobilize an army of 100,000 troops?
He knew that Gu Jinnian definitely didn't have tiger or dragon charms.
Although I don't know what means were used, Gu Jinnian was just playing with fire.
The Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, and the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty would go to death to consult the Jinnian Book, and the emperor might not even be able to keep it.
This is no longer playing with fire.
This is complete chaos.
But what he couldn't understand the most was why the garrison general agreed to Gu Jinnian.
He couldn't understand.
No matter what Gu Jinnian said, if he transferred 100,000 soldiers without the Dragon Talisman and Tiger Talisman, he would definitely be held accountable.
But, there is no need to think about it now.
The troops and horses have already been dispatched, there is no point in thinking so much.
in this way.
A hundred thousand troops rushed towards Bailu Mansion.
And at the same time.
The capital of Gangneung County.
Inside Fujun's house.
A figure ran in a panic and broke into the governor's study.
"It's not good, it's not good, it's bad."
"Sir, something big has happened."
The housekeeper stumbled into the study and disturbed the county guard who was practicing calligraphy.
"What happened?"
"How is it appropriate to be so flustered?"
The governor of Jiangling County frowned.
I feel dissatisfied with this housekeeper.
What big thing could happen in Jiangling County? It's really embarrassing to be so panicked.
"grown ups."
"The people from the Shankui Military Camp surrounded our Jiangling Mansion. All city gates were heavily guarded. Thousands of elites went directly into the city to search and controlled all the officials."
"There is still a small group of people rushing to the mansion."
The steward opened his mouth and said something that made the county governor change his expression.
"Surrounded by military camp?"
"This is impossible."
"How could something like this happen for no reason?"
"Did you read that correctly? He's from Shankui camp?"
The Jiangling County Sheriff's eyes widened and he lost his composure.
But I didn’t wait for him to speak.
Some voices sounded in the house.
"What are you doing? This is the governor's house."
"What are you going to do?"
Noisy sounds sounded.
Soon, dozens of people appeared outside the study.
He was a local general who came to the mansion with a hundred people.
"Zhou partial general."
"What the hell is going on?"
Seeing who was coming, the governor of Jiangling County couldn't help but frown, he knew who the other person was.
"Please forgive me, Lord Sheriff."
"Acting on military orders."
"I hope you won't blame me, sir."
The latter spoke with a stern expression.
"Military order? Whose military order?"
"Why don't I have any news at all?"
He looked ugly and asked directly.
"Gu Jinnian, grandson of Duke Zhenguo, military order from Lord Gu."
The other party answered.
In an instant, the Jiangling County Sheriff's face became even more ugly.
"It's him?"
"How can he dispatch the Shankui military camp? Isn't this nonsense?"
"Let Wu Wangzhi come over. I want to ask him personally how he became a general."
"You actually dare to mobilize troops to blockade Jiangling County. This is a huge act of courage. Do you want to rebel?"
The governor of Jiangling County was a little angry.
If it was Wu Wangzhi's military order, he would be solemn and frightened, but when he heard it was Gu Jinnian's military order, he suddenly became angry.
Who is Gu Jinnian?
What can the prince do?
Is it possible for a prince to dispatch troops and generals?
"grown ups."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a will."
"The general has handed over the military talisman to His Royal Highness."
"So, no matter what, I will do the work as ordered."
The latter's face became obviously colder.
They are officers and soldiers, and they are doing things according to orders, and no one can cause trouble for them.
"What are you ordered to do?"
The county guard spoke coldly.
"This is beyond your control. In short, before the Crown Prince comes, or before there are other military orders."
"Please, sir, please stay in the house."
He spoke out.
"What if I have to leave?"
The governor's face also turned cold.
He is a dignified county guard. When has he ever been so angry?
"Then you can only follow orders."
"The Crown Prince has an order to seal off all official residences. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy."
"Your Majesty the Sheriff, I don't want any conflict to occur, so I would like to ask the Sheriff for your convenience."
The latter spoke.
But his tone became colder and colder, especially the murderous aura that should have been revealed in his eyes.
The Sheriff is very big.
A heavenly official.
But so what? They soldiers are really not afraid of local officials.
Military orders are like mountains.
That's what's important.
Hearing this, the governor of Jiangling County fell silent.
He didn't know how to answer.
"good."
"Then I would like to see what the imperial court's attitude is."
"The prince is crazy, and Wu Wangzhi is also crazy. I am just waiting to see his misfortune."
After he said this, he sat back down, his face gloomy and scary.
The latter didn't care and said calmly.
"Search for letters and guard all entrances and exits. Anyone who dares to go out will be killed without mercy."
After saying this, he turned around and left without giving any face.
in this way.
The next day.
early morning.
At three quarters of a hour.
The sun is blazing in the sky.
Inside Bailu Mansion.
It was peaceful.
At the gate of the city, the soldiers were guarding as usual, and some of the soldiers were stretching, their eyes a little blurry.
After all, I had just woken up and was feeling a little out of sorts.
But at this moment.
Suddenly.
Boom boom boom.
Boom boom boom.
Like an earthquake.
The sound gradually became louder.
Look up.
far away.
Yellow sand fills the sky.
The soldiers guarding the city were stunned.
If you look carefully again, everyone's face will turn pale the next moment.
"The enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking."
Finally, when seeing countless soldiers and horses appearing, someone reacted and shouted with a trembling voice.
Winter winter winter.
Winter winter winter.
The war drums are beating.
It means there is an enemy attack.
The sound of war drums resounded throughout the city. Suddenly, war drums sounded at the four entrances of the city in the southeast, northwest and northwest.
Inside the Bailu Mansion.
Xu Ping and others are handling official business.
However, as the sound of war drums sounded.
Everyone's expressions couldn't help but change.
"What is this sound?"
"It's the sound of war drums. Is there an enemy attack?"
"It's impossible. How could there be an enemy attack in good condition? If there is an enemy attack, Jiangling Mansion should be the first to bear the brunt. How could it end up in our Bailu Mansion?"
"Let's go and have a look."
"Stop being so nagging, let's go."
All the officials were curious and thought for a moment that they had heard wrongly.
But Xu Ping's face turned extremely ugly.
He had a bold guess for a moment.
"Go and tell Mr. Kong to come."
Xu Ping spoke and took a deep breath. He knew something was going to happen.
But it's not clear what's going on.
Soon, all the officials of Bailu Mansion rushed to the city wall.
Without listening to the nagging soldiers, Xu Ping and others went directly to the city.
Soon, a scene appeared that made their faces turn pale.
far away.
The army came and poured in from all directions.
The ground was shaking a little.
One by one, the black iron cavalry, reflected horribly in the sun, surged towards Bailu Mansion like Shura, the god of death.
"This is someone from Shankui Military Camp."
"Yes, the people from Shankui Military Camp, why are they here?"
"How is this going?"
"The people from Shankui Military Camp should have nothing to do with Gu Jinnian, right?"
"It definitely doesn't matter. Gu Jinnian can't mobilize so many troops."
Everyone said something to each other.
At first, they thought it was Gu Jinnian who had returned. After all, the recent events in Bailu Mansion were related to Gu Jinnian.
Now that I saw the people from Shankui Camp, I was relieved.
After all, they didn't think that Gu Jinnian could mobilize so many troops.
"Look and tell first."
"Close the city gates. No opening of the city is allowed without my order."
Xu Ping frowned as he said this and gave the order.
in this way.
Two quarters of an hour later.
The army appeared, three hundred paces away from the city gate.
The black cavalry stood outside the city.
The eyes of every soldier were full of coldness.
This is Daxia Iron Cavalry.
Brave and invincible.
The leader made everyone look ugly.
It's Gu Jinnian.
"Is it really Gu Jinnian?"
"How could he dispatch so many soldiers?"
"At first glance, I'm afraid there are as many as one hundred thousand."
"Mobilize 100,000 troops?"
"Why did Shankuiying agree?"
"This is incredible."
"It's over now, it's over now."
The officials all looked ugly. Didn't you expect that Gu Jinnian really transferred so many soldiers?
This is too exaggerated.
This is simply incredible.
"Don't panic."
"Even if we are moving troops, we haven't done anything wrong. Let's see what he wants to do first."
Xu Ping opened his mouth.
He was also shocked inside, but on his face he looked calm.
Outside the city gate.
Gu Jinnian raised his head and looked at Xu Ping and others above the city gate.
His eyes were extremely calm.
"May I ask, Your Highness, what does this mean?"
The next moment, a voice sounded. It was an official from Bailu Mansion who stood on the city wall and asked Gu Jinnian.
"Open the city gate."
Gu Jinnian ignored it and just spoke indifferently.
"Kaicheng!"
"Kaicheng!"
"Kaicheng!"
The roar sounded, and the voice of a hundred thousand troops shook the sky, condensing a terrifying momentum.
On top of the city wall.
The soldiers guarding the city all looked ugly. They could withstand such pressure, but they were still panicking.
As for Xu Ping and others, their faces were all pale and they didn't know how to answer.
"His Royal Highness."
"What's your purpose of sending troops to surround Bailu Mansion?"
"Is there something that we can't discuss carefully?"
Xu Ping opened his mouth.
He didn't expect that Gu Jinnian could be so amazing.
Sent an army of 100,000 to suppress it.
This is crazy.
It was completely beyond his expectation.
"Send me the military order."
However, Gu Jinnian did not answer.
"Within half a quarter of an hour."
"If you break into the city without opening the gates, all the officials will be beheaded."
Gu Jinnian spoke.
His expression was cold.
If nothing else, don't open the city gate, so don't be verbose here.
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, all the soldiers were holding spears in their hands, and ten thousand archers were staring at him with crossbows.
As long as the time comes.
It was a rain of arrows falling.
Extremely ruthless.
"His Royal Highness."
"I don't know what His Highness is trying to do, but he has raised troops to attack it. This is a serious crime. I hope His Highness can calm down. If anything happens, I will definitely negotiate with His Highness."
Xu Ping spoke up.
Naturally, he didn't want to see the swords of both sides clashing. To put it bluntly, if they really started fighting, the city gate would be broken in less than a quarter of an hour.
And if anything goes wrong, Gu Jinnian will definitely be punished, and he will definitely die without a burial place.
There is no other reason.
No matter what means Gu Jinnian used to mobilize the army, as a local official, he should also find out the situation and minimize casualties as much as possible.
If you fight with your own military camp, it is a serious crime, unless the other party massacres the city.
After all, the Shankui Army is directly under His Majesty and not the army of other vassals.
Even if someone falsely preaches the imperial edict, they must not be forceful.
However, Gu Jinnian did not answer.
Just watch quietly.
It gives people the feeling that when the time comes, they will take action ruthlessly.
Quiet.
Quiet.
Everyone was quiet.
But this kind of quietness creates unspeakable pressure.
"Sir, what should we do? Look at the prince's appearance. If we don't open the city gate, he will really break into the city."
"Yes, sir, why don't we let the prince come in? We have a clear conscience. Even if he wants to act arrogantly, he can't kill innocent people indiscriminately, right?"
"Sir, Gu Jinnian's behavior will definitely be reported to the capital. He doesn't dare to mess around. Why don't we just open the city gate and see what Gu Jinnian is going to do."
"Yes, let's open the city gate."
All of a sudden, these officials spoke one after another. They were really scared.
And Xu Ping couldn't help but take a deep breath.
He was in a bit of a dilemma.
Without opening the city gate, he believed that Gu Jinnian would dare to breach the city.
Once the city gate is opened, many things are really hard to say.
After a while.
Xu Ping finally took a deep breath and almost gritted his teeth.
"Open the door."
He spoke.
give an order.
At this moment, the huge city gate slowly opened.
But Gu Jinnian didn't waste any time and led his cavalry into the city.
Five thousand cavalry followed Gu Jinnian into the city.
The rest of the soldiers poured into Bailu Mansion from all directions.
"The order passed down from generation to generation."
"Guard all the streets in the government, control the treasury, government offices, and official residences."
"If any suspicious persons are found, they will be arrested directly."
Wang Peng's voice sounded.
Issue the military order given by Gu Jinnian before.
And the city gate opened.
Gu Jinnian walked in slowly on an iron cavalry.
this moment.
His aura also became very terrifying in an instant.
This is the aura brought by a hundred thousand troops.
Xu Ping and others appeared at the city gate again, greeting Gu Jinnian as before.
However, this time, there was no smile like before.
Instead, there was solemnity.
"I've been waiting for you to see the crown prince."
When Gu Jinnian appeared again, the officials of Bailu Mansion all spoke and saluted Gu Jinnian.
"His Royal Highness."
"The palace has not received any military orders from the imperial court. I wonder why His Royal Highness led troops to surround Bailu Mansion?"
"May I ask His Highness the Crown Prince if there is any official document?"
Xu Ping looked at Gu Jinnian and asked.
The opponent has an army of 100,000, and this time he does not dare to mess around.
Hear this.
Gu Jinnian was very indifferent and asked someone to get the pamphlet and write two words on it with a small pen.
Then he tore it off and threw it on Xu Ping's face.
"This is the official document."
"Do you need me to write another one?"
Gu Jinnian spoke.
When Xu Ping heard this, his face became a little ugly, especially when the paper fell and the word "Luyin" appeared, Xu Ping's face became even more ugly.
Arrogant.
This is too arrogant.
But what can be done?
They came with a hundred thousand troops.
Is there any way to deal with it yourself?
It was at this time.
A figure also came quickly.
It's Kong Zhen's figure.
He walked quickly and looked at these cavalry with a somewhat ugly expression.
When he came to Gu Jinnian.
Kong Zhen's voice immediately sounded.
"It is forbidden by law to mobilize troops privately."
"Your Highness, you are leading troops into the city. This is against the rules."
"Please give me an explanation, Your Highness."
Kong Zhen appears.
Although he did not have an official position, he was a great Confucian scholar, and a great Confucian scholar, with a very high status.
Being invited by Xu Ping, he naturally had the temperament to ask Gu Jinnian.
Snapped.
In an instant, the riding crop was swung, and a bloodstain instantly appeared on Kong Zhen's face.
It was Gu Jinnian who took action.
Gu Jinnian didn't like Kong Zhen at all. He had a grudge against the Kong family, but he didn't expect that he would dare to seek death.
Then Gu Jinnian didn't care.
Crack down with a whip.
Kong Zhen screamed instantly.
All the officials immediately trembled, and some officials looked angry, but they did not dare to say anything.
"Is it against the rules?"
"My rules are just rules."
"Kong Zhen, who do you think you are? You have no official position and no status. How dare you question this prince?"
"Xu Ping."
"Is this Lord Bailufu you, or is this Kong Zhen?"
Gu Jinnian's voice was cold.
After he whipped Kong Zhen.
His eyes were extremely cold.
As soon as these words came out, the latter swallowed and then spoke.
But he said nothing.
Under military might.
He really didn't dare to say anything.
"May I ask His Highness, what exactly are you doing with such an action?"
"Whether we are wrong or not, please let His Highness know."
However, Xu Ping did not speak, and other officials spoke up and asked Gu Jinnian.
However, Gu Jinnian ignored the other party.
Instead, he sat on the horse and waited quietly for something.
After a stick of incense.
Xu Jin's figure appeared.
Dozens of soldiers followed behind him, bringing a woman with them.
This woman was the one who broke into the party a few days ago.
But when I saw this woman.
Gu Jinnian's expression suddenly changed.
Because this woman's hair was disheveled, her body was full of dirt, her eyes were dull, she was stupid, and she was talking nonsense.
"His Royal Highness, we have been summoned."
"It's just that people have gone crazy."
Xu Jin opened his mouth. Gu Jinnian told him some things before he came, mainly to find this woman.
He searched for a long time and asked someone to inquire, and then he discovered this woman.
But the difference is that the other party is already crazy.
Hear Xu Jin's words.
Gu Jinnian couldn't help but take a deep breath and looked at Xu Ping and others with eyes like daggers.
"It seems that Master Xu really doesn't take my son's words to heart."
"I said, if something happens to her, I will never let you go."
"Here comes someone."
"Get Xu Ping, Lord of Bailu Mansion, for me."
"Give me a hundred punishments on the spot."
Gu Jinnian spoke, his voice a little cold.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Ping couldn't hold himself any longer.
"His Royal Highness."
"I am an official of the imperial court. I have made no fault of my own. You cannot punish me."
"Besides, her losing her mind and going crazy has nothing to do with me."
Xu Ping opened his mouth.
Completely panicked.
A hundred punishments would cost his life.
It's just that these soldiers didn't care so much. They got off their horses immediately with military orders, found torture tools, pinned Xu Ping to the ground, and executed him directly.
