On the second day of June, Lu Mingxing, the general manager of the Alliance Cavalry Army, and Jun Yue Gao, the commander of the Third Army of the Alliance, commanded the bloody battles of the headquarters and advanced to the south bank of the Luoshui River, but were immediately subjected to fierce counterattacks from the Ganluo City defenders. In Baiting, which was only a river from Ganluo City, the local defenders in Kuai Township, under the command of Henan Lingdaxi, fully supported Ganluo City and tried their best to defend the Luoshui defense line.

At noon that day, Li Fengyun led Xu Shisan's Fengyun Army, Xiahou Zhe's First Alliance Army, and Niu Jinda's 23rd Alliance Army to join the battlefield of Ganluo City. With its absolute advantage in military strength and unyielding high morale, the alliance army captured Ganluo City with an invincible and invincible force under Li Fengyun's personal command and supervision, and tore a gap in the Guardian army's solid Luoshui defense line and opened a passage across Luoshui.

When the news reached Dongdu, King Yang Tong of Yue and Fan Zigai, who stayed in Dongdu, were furious at the passive and lazy battle of the Right Guard General Li Hun, but there was no way. Li Hun's defense on the front line of Xianren Palace was impeccable, and he also launched a counterattack on Yique, firmly restraining the main force of the rebels. However, the thief commander Han Xiangguo was not a good deal, but also had strategies. In the case where the guards could not be stopped on the front battlefield, he relied on the advantage of large numbers of people to send a side-subject division to attack the Luoshui defense line. As a result, the Han Xiangguo succeeded. The side-subject division captured Ganluo City, broke through the Luoshui defense line, and directly attacked the side-rear wing of Xianren Palace. Li Hun is now surrounded by the rebels on three sides, guarding Xianren Palace alone, very passive, and his anger is greater than that of the Dongdu.

Li Hun "takes first" and accused Dongdu of "inaction" and did not actively put pressure on the four commanders including Zheng Yuanshou, Qin Wang Yang Hao, and Henan Zanwu Pei Hongce, so that reinforcements were delayed and the situation became worse. He even publicly warned Dongdu that it was critical for the Second Eastern Expedition to be stable or not, but some people with ulterior motives deliberately worsened the situation in Dongdu, which seemed to be a personal desperate situation, but in fact, they were conspiring to destroy the Second Eastern Expedition.

This "accusation" is serious, and it is a sign of breaking up. Although King Yang Tong of Yue and Fan Zigai, who stayed in Dongdu, were very angry, considering the safety of the Dongdu, they had to convene important officials in the central government and generals of the Weifu Office to discuss rescue strategies in detail.

Duke Guanguo Yang Gongren was invited to participate in the military convention, but his attendance failed to ease the fierce conflicts between the top military and political leaders of the Eastern Capital.

The Guardian's view on the situation of the war is still optimistic, and his understanding of the crisis in Dongdu is still insufficient. Zheng Yuanshou, the right guard general, still insists that Li Hun has the strength to defeat or even destroy the rebels. The implication is that Li Hun is purely a thief and calls for catching the thief. Li Hun himself has ulterior motives. His actions on the battlefield of Yique have proved that he is essentially the behind-the-scenes driver of the rapid deterioration of the situation in Dongdu. Therefore, K Yuanshou asked King Yue Yang Tong and Fan Zigai to immediately put pressure on Li Hun, and if he had no choice, he could even use extraordinary means to deprive Li Hun of his military power.

However, there has been a confrontation between the Yue Palace, the left-behind government, the central government and the Henan Neishi Mansion. The senior political leaders of the Dongdu government, not to mention joining forces to put pressure on the Wei Mansion, even they themselves cannot make a unified decision. The Yue Palace Chief Cui Zi, who represents the Yue Palace, firmly opposes support, and the Taifu Qing Yuan Wendu, who represents the Central Government, sways left and right, saying that they should only follow the leader of the Yue Palace, and they must respect the left-behind Fan Zigai. As a result, they watched coldly and did not support anyone, while Pei Hongce, who represents the Henan Neishi Mansion, was on the verge of the Yue Palace.

He insisted that this was the military's business. It was originally the responsibility of the Dongdu garrison army. The local government could not and did not have the ability to "over-the-job" to suppress the thieves on behalf of the military, and asked the Henan Neishifu to support the Weifu, which was purely a joke. Fan Zigao was a "lonely man" and could only change his mind when he saw the situation falling one side, Yu Qian wisely closed his mouth. Silence was gold. He could not persist in it blindly. If he insisted on supporting Li Hun, he would definitely push him to the forefront and become the target of public criticism.

However, he overestimated himself and did not fully see the situation. At the top leaders of the Dongdu political circle today, he, a staunch supporter of radical reform who was loyal to the Holy Lord, is essentially the target of public criticism. If he wants to keep a low profile and not want to be the first, it does not mean that everything he wants will come true.

Yang Gongren finally spoke, saying it to the point, "Under the current situation, can Gong (Li Hun) defend the Luoshui defense line?"

He didn't mention counterattacking Yique, and directly said whether he could defend Yique, which meant that he was pessimistic about the battle situation. Yesterday, he went south of Luoshui, went to Xianren Palace to have a private conversation with Li Hun, and then went directly to his mansion. He neither went to the Yue Palace to report the result of Luoshui's trip to King Yue, nor went to the imperial city to discuss with Fan Zigai, Yuan Wendu and other central ministers. Instead, he took his own initiative and sent his three younger brothers without authorization, one to go east and two to hurry west, which was obvious that he wanted to gather the power of the royal family to do something.

Yang Gongren's political style has always been known for his calmness, but this time, whether he actively made a comeback at the invitation of King Yang Tong of Yue, or privately calling the power of the royal family without the consent of the Holy Lord, he committed a political taboo. He was impulsive and eager, and he wanted to take risks and bet on his own political life. This made it impossible for insiders to think deeply about how big the crisis forced Yang Gongren to take advantage of his political life?

Yang Gongren must have known some secret. He thought of the first person to meet after Yang Gongren's "return" was Duke Li Hun, and when he thought of Li Yang's aroused move, the answer was about to come out, and this answer made all insiders feel suffocated.

If Yang Xuangan of Li Yang formed an alliance with the King of Qi, who was closest to the imperial government, and joined forces to launch a military coup, the result would be foreseeable. Even if the military coup ended in failure, the great storm that swept the entire Middle Earth would inevitably involve countless noble bureaucrats and bureaucrats in hell.

This is a lesson from the past. There are military coups in which Yuchi Jiong and Wang Qian and Sima eliminated difficulties more than 20 years ago. In the near future, there are military coups launched by King Yang Liang of Han nine years ago. Although they all failed, there are as many as hundreds of thousands of noble bureaucrats and innocent military and civilians who were buried with them, which are horrifying and terrible. If the storm that the Dongdu is about to set off is exactly the same as the previous two storms, then there will definitely be more people who died in the storm this time than the previous two times. The reason is very simple. The center of this storm is in the Central Plains, in the Jingji, in the Dongdu, in the places with the most dense aristocratic bureaucrats, in the places with the most concentrated population, in the most intense conflicts in the court. Therefore, after the storm, the Dongdu and even the entire Central Plains may become ruins.

There was no one talking in the lobby, and the atmosphere was very depressing. It was midsummer again. Even though there were a lot of ice in the hall, it was still hot and hard to bear, and everyone was sweating profusely.

Yang Gongren looked serious and had a sharp look. After slowly scanning everyone, he continued to ask, "Who are you here in the battlefield? Who is the leader? Who has fought with the rebels face to face? Do you really understand the rebels' true strength?"

Still no one spoke.

Yang Gongren sighed and asked again, "You all know that Yique has been lost incredible. So have you thought deeply about why Yique, who is as solid as a god, lost? If you think deeply and guess or have already known the truth about Yique's loss, then I would ask you, will Dongdu, who is as solid as a god, be lost incredible for the same reason?"

There was a silence, and only heavy breathing sounds remained in the lobby.

"Our destiny is closely related to Dongdu." Yang Gongren's voice was very low, very melancholy, and even a little sad. "I know that the reason why you quarrel so fiercely is to protect your own interests to the greatest extent, but I must remind you whether you can protect your own interests, the premise is to protect the security of Dongdu, ensure the stability of the domestic political situation, and ensure that the Holy Lord wins the battlefield of the Eastern Expedition. If the Eastern Expedition fails, if the domestic political situation deteriorates to the extreme, if the Dongdu falls into the capital and dies, can you still protect your own interests?"

This is political common sense, and everyone knows it. Yang Gongren explained these simple political common sense in such an important occasion and at important moments. Of course, the purpose is not to warn the military and political leaders of the Dongdu, but to have other plans.

What is Yang Gongren's purpose? The military and political tycoons in the lobby are all smart people, and they know clearly, but no one dares to say it. No one knows how many "trump cards" Yang Gongren has mastered, but one thing is certain. Since Yang Gongren has made up his mind, it proves that he must be quite sure, otherwise wouldn't he be humiliated by himself?

"The relocation of the capital by the Holy Lord intensifies the conflict between the two capitals, and this contradiction will only deteriorate the situation without limit in times of crisis, and may even endanger the survival of the country. There is no doubt about this."

Yang Gongren's words were astonishing. This sentence is too straightforward, so straightforward that these military and political tycoons were frightened. Although the irreconcilable conflict between the two capitals is an open secret and one of the important reasons for the intensification of political struggles over the years, no one wants to make it clear, and it will be even more intense if it makes it clear. Now Yang Gongren has clarified why? There is only one reason. Xijing is the most important behind the storm. The purpose is to destroy Dongdu, regain the central position of the political, economic and cultural center of Zhongtu, and regain the huge interests that it seemed to belong to Xijing. This seriously endangered the survival of the country and seriously damaged the fundamental interests of the royal family. Therefore, Yang Gongren could not bear it anymore, and the royal family could not bear it anymore. Therefore, Yang Gongren actively "come back" and even took a try at any cost.

"The outbreak of this crisis is inevitable. We can only do our best to save Dongdu. What is the key to saving Dongdu? How can we make a decision to turn the tide?"

Yang Gongren stopped when he said this. The firmness in his eyes clearly revealed his extraordinary determination. No one could stop him from saving Dongdu, otherwise he would never die.
