The young man rushed over, wanting to snatch his father away and escape from the city.
The young man is really agile and brave.
But he still despised these wolf-like elites. As soon as he got close to Badara and the others, the knights on the left and right threw their nooses and pulled him off the horse. The war horse neighed and raised its front hooves, and
The young man was directly pushed to the ground by the soldiers and tied tightly.
General Shi trembled and looked at Potara pleadingly.
"General!! My son is naughty and I did not discipline him strictly. Please consider his youth and forgive him!"
Badara slowly walked up to the boy, knelt down and looked at him carefully.
This kid was tied up, but he was not angry at all. He quickly smiled and said, "The soldiers under the general's command are really brave. No wonder they can break the city so easily!"
Potara was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"This kid is quite good at talking, but whether you and your grandfather can survive or not is not up to me, it has to be decided by my general!"
"You are a strong boy, you have a big head, and you are smart. Why don't you look like your grandpa?"
As Badara was talking, many soldiers came down the steps beside him and stood on both sides.
Potara didn't dare to say anything anymore and quickly kept a straight face.
Liu Taozi walked down slowly. His body was covered with blood. The soldiers behind him escorted many generals and pushed them to General Shi's side, asking them to kneel down.
Liu Taozi glanced at the young man, "What happened?"
Podoro hurriedly told everything about what had just happened.
Liu Taozi ignored it, but looked at General Shi, "Did you kill Liu Yong?"
General Shi paid his respects at this moment and said, "The incompetent rats have killed the entire army, so I killed them."
"You want to submit to me?"
"General, there are treacherous ministers in the country who are wielding power. Most of the local people are villains like Liu Yong. There is no room for heroes to display their ambitions. My family is in the city. If the general does not dislike it, I am willing to follow him and make contributions."
General Shi has completely given up.
Because he felt that even if Liu Yong lost Shiya Mountain City this time and returned to Chang'an, nothing would happen to him.
After losing Yongfeng earlier, the temple finally thought it was Hou Mo and Chen Qiong's fault, and severely punished the other generals, but did not blame Liu Yong.
And this time, the person most likely to be dragged out to take the blame is himself.
This guy is a flatterer, and he can still be his general in the future, but he will be dragged out to face charges for such a thing.
Shi Jing couldn't accept it even if she thought about it.
Moreover, since Liu Yong arrived here, he has not regarded the soldiers in the city as human beings, and the conflicts between the two have actually been accumulated for a long time.
The only thing General Shi is worried about now is that General Liu does not trust him.
Liu Taozi looked at Potara, who immediately understood and hurriedly stepped forward to loosen the restraints for him, and then signaled the soldiers in the distance to let go of the kid.
"General Shi?"
"My subordinates call me Shi Jing, and my courtesy name is Zi Ping!"
"Master Shi, go and appease the prisoners now. If they are willing to stay, they will be my soldiers from now on. If they want to leave, then send them away."
"Complete it as soon as possible and then redefine it"
"only!!"
Shi Jing saluted, walked quickly to his son, and kicked him hard. The boy rubbed his buttocks and could only smile stupidly. Liu Taozi looked at the father and son, and suddenly said: "At such a young age,
He can be so brave and filial, Mr. Shi has a good son."
Shi Jingshai smiled humbly.
After he pulled his son away from here, he cursed: "Why are you crazy? People usually praise you a few times. Do you really think you are related to Zhang Zhiyong? You want to break through alone in the midst of thousands of troops?"
Shi Wansui said helplessly: "I just thought it was grandpa who was captured. Who knew you had surrendered?"
He was a little confused and had a complicated expression on his face, "Master, the temple treats you very well, how can you surrender to the enemy?"
Shi Jing paused and then said: "I'm not afraid of death."
"I just don't want to die for someone like Liu Yong."
"Not worth it."
Shi Wansui lowered his head and had many things to say in his heart, but he could only give up.
"However, that General Liu is really as ferocious as the rumors. I think his troops are fewer than we predicted, less than 3,000 men. The Shiya Mountain City was just lost."
The young boy's eyes were bright, and when he talked about military affairs, he didn't look like a baby at all.
"If Shiya Mountain City is lost like this, the border defense will have to be reduced a lot. In the past, the big city and Shiya Mountain City took care of each other, which can also make the enemy less aggressive. Now it is good. Once Shiya Mountain City is lost, we will not be able to fight again.
They won’t look at us if they fight, it all depends on what the enemy thinks.”
Shi Jing looked at his son in surprise.
He usually taught the other party the art of war, but sometimes, he always felt that his son's strategic vision was better than his own. In terms of military affairs, his son was really extremely talented.
Shi Wansui continued: "It's over, it's completely over now."
"The defense line can only rely on Lingzhou and Xiazhou, and the most terrifying thing is not this."
"What is that?"
"It's Liangzhou and Ganzhou! Grandpa!"
"Occupying Shiya Mountain City can send troops directly to the west to threaten Lianggan. If the temple wants reinforcements, it will have to take a detour. Do you think it is scary?"
Shi Jing's eyes widened, and for a moment, his thoughts were wandering.
Lingwu City.
The atmosphere in the city is very different.
The knights kept running back and forth in the city, much more than usual.
In the official office, a dark-faced Yang Zhong was reading the latest information brought by the scouts.
Li Mu was sitting closest, and he saw Yang Zhong's hands trembling and the beard on his face trembling.
"Shit!!"
"Bastard thing!!"
Yang Zhong was furious, suddenly dropped the documents in his hand, and beat the documents in front of him, his whole person was extremely irritable.
Yang Zhong has always been calm, and almost everyone has never seen him look so angry. Even when Yongfeng fell, they have never seen him so furious.
But at this time, Yang Zhong couldn't bear it anymore.
He clenched his fists, his eyes flashed with a fierce light, and his whole body was red and seemed to be burning.
"Liu Yong lost the Shiyashan Camp"
"From Yongfeng to Ling and Xia, the enemy will no longer have any cover, and everything will be flat. They can even threaten Liang, Gan and other places."
Yang Zhong's face was trembling all the time. When Liu Taozi sent out troops, he set off from Chang'an to the north, making preparations to attack Liu Taozi three months later.
This is a fight against a dog!
Beat Yongfeng??
Damn it, hit Shiyashan first!
Can the Turks come to Shiya Mountain to cooperate with me? How can I do that!!
The more Yang Zhong thought about it, the angrier he became. If he was defeated in a head-on encounter, he would not be angry. It was unacceptable for Yang Zhong to be defeated in such a humiliating way.
Who are these people Yuwenhu uses?
Yang Zhong wanted to laugh when he thought that he would use an army of officers composed of such people to attack the puppet Qi.
The difficulty of recapturing Yongfeng was already ridiculous, but now it has been raised again.
Yang Zhong was a little desperate. Facing Liu Taozi, he was helpless.
In the past, Liu Taozi could only be beaten at the frontier, but now, he has begun to take the initiative, plundering food and grass, and capturing cities.
In a few years, Yang Zhong couldn't even imagine what it would be like, with the army advancing into Lianggan?
Or a cavalry raid on Chang'an?
Liu Taozi's rise has been reflected in the current situation.
Can't wait any longer.
Something must be done. Maybe what Zheng Daoqian said at that time was right.
Can such a person really achieve great things if he governs the world?
Why do I, Dazhou, meet such a person?
Qi, Yecheng.
"You help me kill Gao Rui now!!!"
Queen Mother Hu stood in front of Hu Changren. Even when facing her brother, she didn't feel any shame. Her clothes were disheveled and her hair accessories were wrong.
Her eyes were red, and she stood in front of Hu Changren with bare feet.
"I don't care!! You have to kill him!!"
Hu Changren's face was trembling at this moment. Just like Yang Zhong, his face turned red. He took a deep breath and forcibly calmed down.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with Prince Zhao? Although he is a bit strong, he is also the pillar of the temple. How can he be killed just by saying anything?"
"What kind of pillar? He just stares at the ministers and me all day long, causing trouble everywhere, so what if I kill him? Isn't there Gao Jun? Gao Jun is so good, he never pays attention to these things, and just stays in the official office with peace of mind
, this Gao Rui is jumping up and down all day long, I must kill him!!"
Hu Changren certainly understood Empress Dowager Hu.
He knew that the other party was unreasonable. He could only use the simplest method to convince the other party, "Queen Mother, although Gao Jun is good, he doesn't know how to fight. The same goes for me."
"In the temple today, he and Lou Rui are the only ones who know about military matters."
"And he is the only one who can transport food and grass in time and coordinate military logistics."
"The Puppet Zhou army is gathering. There will definitely be a big battle this year. If we kill him now, what will happen to the military logistics in the future?"
"Didn't you say there is also Lou Rui?"
“Let Lou Rui take charge of logistics??”
Hu Changren was startled. He hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother does not know that although King Dong'an is brave and good at fighting, his character is not very good. If he is asked to coordinate the food and grass, I am afraid that this food and grass will never reach the hands of the army."
"I don't care about this! In short, I just want Gao Rui to die. If you can't do it, I will find someone else to do it!"
"Don't think that just because you are my brother, you can disobey me like this! I am the Queen Mother, and the emperor's edicts have no effect on me. If I am unhappy, I will remove you too!!"
Hu Changren looked at his sister. He wanted to make sure that the other party was telling the truth. He observed for a moment to make sure that the other party really thought so.
At this moment, Hu Changren felt a little bitter in his heart.
"Please give me some time, the Queen Mother. Once I have defeated the powerful enemies of the puppet Zhou Dynasty, I will take action immediately and kill Gao Rui."
Queen Mother Hu exhaled, her expression finally calm.
She waved her hand indifferently, "Then get ready. If Gao Rui doesn't die this year, someone else may die."
Hu Changren looked at her in disbelief and slowly stood up.
"only."
Empress Dowager Hu immediately looked at the female official on the side and ordered: "Go and call those monks in to worship the Buddha and chant sutras."
Hu Changren hesitated for a moment and then said: "Queen Mother, this monk is a man after all, so it is not easy for him to come in and out of the harem frequently."
"All I call nuns!!"
"Isn't it possible that nuns can't enter the harem?!"
Upon hearing the question, Hu Changren was speechless and left with his head lowered.
Queen Mother Hu snorted coldly, becoming even more disgusted with this brother.
She had no choice but to urge the female officer on the side again to have someone come over quickly.
At this moment, in the front hall.
Lu Lingxuan was standing in the attic with Gaowei, admiring the New Year scenery in the garden outside.
Gao Wei grinned, and when he saw a beautiful flower, he was about to pick it off. When he saw another one that was more beautiful, he threw the one in his hand on the ground, crushed it under his feet, and then picked up the next one.
A group of female officials surrounded him, making Gao Wei laugh and feel particularly happy.
Lu Lingxuan stood aside, squinting her eyes and saying nothing.
Suddenly, a guard walked over quickly, looked at Lu Lingxuan, nodded slowly, and left immediately.
Lu Lingxuan stepped forward and took Gao Wei's hand, "Your Majesty, you might as well go to the Zhuhua Gate and have a look. I heard that there is a high platform over there, and you can see very far."
"Okay! Okay!"
Gao Wei clapped his hands and led everyone towards Zhu Huamen. Lu Lingxuan followed at the end and did not take the initiative to approach.
When Gao Wei came here, he happened to meet a group of people head-on.
Both sides refused to give way and almost collided.
Gao Wei was furious and rushed out quickly, pushing away several guards who were opening the way, "Who dares to contradict me without risking his life?!"
As soon as he separated from the guard in front of him, he saw the group of people on the opposite side.
There are also guards leading the way.
Behind the guards were many nuns, with their heads lowered, and several of them were reciting scriptures.
Seeing these people, Gao Wei's eyes lit up.
He jumped up to the nuns and looked them up and down. The guard was sweating profusely.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is anxious to worship the Buddha."
"What's the rush?!"
Gao Wei glared at the other party. Since he succeeded in getting the Queen Mother to leave last time, Gao Wei's fear of his mother has weakened a lot.
As an emperor, as long as he is not afraid, he will be afraid of others.
Gao Wei already vaguely understood this truth.
He looked at the nuns in front of him with a smile, "Aren't they monks?"
"Your Majesty, they are female monks."
"Oh, there are also female monks, okay, okay, let them play with me first, and then send them to the Queen Mother!"
The guard was shocked, "Your Majesty!!"
Gao Wei looked at him suddenly, "You want to disobey the edict? Do you want to rebel?!"
The guard immediately knelt on the ground, "Don't dare."
Gao Wei waved his hand, and the guards on his side pulled the nuns away. The guards were very frightened, and waited until the emperor left before rushing to the Queen Mother's palace.
When the Queen Mother learned about this from the guards, she was furious.
She immediately led everyone and quickly went to the emperor's side.
Her face was red and her eyes were full of anger. She didn't expect that this little brat would dare to play such a trick with her?!
If I had known earlier, I would have let him die in my belly!!
When the Queen Mother hurriedly broke into the Zhengxin Hall, Gao Wei's face was ashen and he was sitting in the upper seat, surrounded by guards on both sides.
As for the nuns, they were huddled in the corner, crying like rain.
When the Queen Mother saw her son sitting on the throne, she vaguely felt something was wrong and was about to speak.
"Male."
"They're all men."
"She looks pretty and is as beautiful as a woman, but she turns out to be a man!!"
Gao Wei was particularly angry, "How can I play with this?!"
The Queen Mother trembled in her heart, looked at the nuns, and secretly thought it was not good.
The anger and arrogance just now disappeared in an instant.
"Wei, don't mess around,"
"These nuns all have profound Buddhist teachings and cannot be humiliated. Our family is all Buddhist-loving people, so you must follow suit."
Gao Wei sat in the upper position with a cold expression.
He looked at Lu Lingxuan standing aside, "Sister? What should I do?"
Lu Lingxuan looked at the Queen Mother Hu faintly, "This must be someone who harmed the Queen Mother. How could the Queen Mother do such a thing? Why not seize the 'female' official next to the Queen Mother and torture her to see who is trying to frame the Queen Mother.
.”
Queen Mother Hu immediately changed her color and pointed at Lu Lingxuan, "Bold!! You bitch!!"
"And you! Gao Wei!! I am your mother!! You were born to me!!"
"Do you want to commit a crime of disobedience?!"
Gao Wei had a straight face, but a twisted and ferocious look appeared on his childish face.
"Come here, take down the female official next to the Queen Mother and send me an edict to have Prince Zhao enter the palace to investigate this matter thoroughly!"
At this moment, Queen Mother Hu felt weak all over and was trembling with fear.
"Wei, wei! What do you want to do?"
"Do you hate your mother so much?"
"What did I do wrong?"
Her eyes were red and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
But the guards on the left and right didn't care. At this moment, they had already pinned the female officers to the ground, and many of them began to scream.
Gao Wei had their clothes taken off, and sure enough, these people were all men.
And the door was guarded, making it impossible to leave.
Queen Mother Hu stood here, feeling cold and shivering all over.
Lu Lingxuan looked at her, then looked at Gao Wei again, and whispered: "Your Majesty, you are the Queen Mother after all, so you cannot let her suffer too much humiliation."
Gao Wei looked at his mother in front of him again, was silent for a moment, and said, "Send the Queen Mother back to the palace."
Queen Mother Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her son happily.
And in her eyes, there was actually some disgusting flattery.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
