Chapter 654

Shan Dongxing was very worried, "Can we get through with two million people?"

Wu Gongling: "Elder Shan still expects to take away two million troops? These are all mobs who have not undergone long-term formal training, can't walk fast or run, let alone have no experience in fighting. When they encounter bullying people, they swarm up to scare them." The people and the strong momentum are not bad. If you really rely on them to fight, that is a joke. Before, you can take advantage of the contradictions in the court, but now the people of Nanzhou are ordering the princes of the five routes, and the princes of the six routes to join forces. We are not their opponents at all. , Why don’t you run away and wait to die? These mobs are a waste of food, just use it to block our pursuers, don’t expect to take them all away, it would be nice if they can take away the main force in Cangzhou.”

Shan Dongxing was distressed, "Since you know you are invincible, why did you agree to rebel?"

Now I really regret it, just based on what the Cangzhou rebels did, how could the court let them go, just because he killed Qu Yunkong, the head of Tongxian Pavilion, and the daughter of the previous head of Zijin Cave , the three major factions can't let him go.

It's too late to surrender now.

Wu Gongling: "It's not that they were deceived. I thought that when the war broke out, the Han and Song armies would take advantage of the situation to attack. We will be indispensable when the benefits are distributed. Whoever wants to drag it so far has no response from the two countries. This is pushing us into the pit of fire." , How can we not seek self-protection? Now going east is our only way of survival, as long as we succeed in disrupting the situation, we still have hundreds of thousands of horses in our hands, which is the capital of self-protection!"

Shan Dongxing had no choice now, and he didn't understand how the army fought against each other, so he could only rely on this veteran on the battlefield, so he cupped his hands and said, "Tongxiange will not change its ambition, and is willing to continue to support the general!"

Wu Gongling was disdainful. Does Tongxiange have a way out besides being tied to Lao Tzu? But with a smile on his face, he said: "Naturally, good and bad are shared!"

...

"Shang Chaozong killed Shi Sheng?"

Yanjing Imperial Palace, Shang Jianxiong who heard the news after the case suddenly raised his head and asked in surprise.

Tian Yu held up the report in his hand, nodded and said: "Your Majesty, there is no mistake, Ga Miaoshui saw it with his own eyes. Shi Sheng broke into the barracks of the Shang Dynasty Zong, wanting to incriminate him, but was captured by the Shang Dynasty Zong, and gave an order Shi Sheng and his two capable disciples were beheaded on the spot, and the heads were given to Su Qitong!"

Shang Jianxiong's expression was unpredictable for a while, and finally he sneered, "It is true that like father, like son, when King Ning ordered to kill the elder of Lingjian Mountain, this time it was replaced by his son. Well, this unrepentant temperament is interesting, really interesting."

Then he raised his chin again, "Pay attention to the reaction over there."

Tian Yu knew what he was referring to, leaned forward and said, "Yes!"

Naturally, it refers to the reaction of the three major factions. As soon as the news arrived, the three major factions were shocked.

In a pavilion, Long Xiu stood up suddenly in shock under the gazes of Meng Xuan and Gong Lince, with a ferocious look on his face, he sneered and sneered.

Outside the pavilion, a group of Xiaoyao Palace disciples rushed over, and they were angry and condemned, threatening to clean up the Shang Chaozong or pay blood debts and so on.

Among them were Shi Sheng's disciples, weeping unceasingly, asking the master to be the master and so on.

Shi Sheng's disciples are really sad. Once Shi Sheng dies, the power structure in the sect will be reshuffled to a certain extent. People in Shi Sheng's line are afraid to stand aside.

Yi Shu said angrily: "Master, without the support of Niu Youdao, how could the Shang Dynasty have such courage? Niu Youdao and the Shang Dynasty had a nest of snakes and rats, and they didn't take our Xiaoyao Palace seriously at all, even our Xiaoyao Palace The elders dare to kill, how can they let it go!"

"Shut up!" Long Xiu suddenly shouted.

Gong Lince and Meng Xuan looked at each other, and the former said: "Brother Long, please stay calm at this time, we might as well discuss the settlement later."

It is really unwise to settle accounts with Shang Chaozong at this time, and the two of them will not let Xiaoyao Palace mess around.

Of course, the two also believed that Long Xiu could understand the powerful relationship.

After Shi Sheng's death, the matter was temporarily suppressed after all. There is no way, the current situation, the suppression of the rebellion is more important than anything else in the Yan Kingdom!

Immediately afterwards, news of the success of counter-insurgency began to spread to the capital.

The impact of Shang Dynasty Zong's killing of Shi Sheng on the war was huge, and it was even more thrilling for the princes who suppressed the rebellion. It also surprised the few elders who were still watching. The military orders that came one after another are simply full of murderous intentions!

Now who dares to doubt the determination of the Shang Dynasty to enforce the law not to suppress the rebels, but only to suppress the princes? Even the elders of Xiaoyao Palace were killed!

First, Su Qitong's army broke through Luoxia Ridge, causing the rebels to flee in panic, and then the defense of the Qianli River changed to a pursuit.

Afterwards, the Fourth Route Army quickly carried out the combat order of the General of Counter-Rebellion, and the Fifth Route Army launched a full-scale offensive, defeating the rebels all the way.

Of course, it sounds good to say that the rebels were defeated all the way. In fact, they didn’t encounter any decent resistance at all. They just ran all the way to regain lost ground and expel the rebels. Thanks to his contribution, the good news spread to the capital one after another like a snowflake.

"Good news! Good news! The counter-insurgency army conquered Luoxia Ridge, fought all the way across the Qianli River, and the rebel army was defeated!"

"Good news! Good news! The counter-insurgency army broke through Dangmen Mountain, and the rebel army was defeated!"

"Good news! Good news! The anti-insurgency army conquered Linhai County and cut off the rebel army's supply!"

"Good news! Good news! The counter-insurgency army has recovered Yuanzhou!"

"Good news! Good news! The counter-insurgency army has broken through Cangzhou, the home of the rebel army!"

"Good news! The rebel lair has fallen, and Cangzhou has been occupied by the counter-insurgency army!"

In order to cheer up the hearts of the people, when the good news arrived, the imperial court deliberately let the courier gallop through the street and shout all the way, so that everyone would know.

As a result, if the victory does not come, it will not be able to stop it. Every time a pass and a county are conquered, there will be a victory. The five-way princes and millions of troops will win everywhere. The amount of victory that gathers in the capital can be imagined. One day Dozens of good news came.

Even the old man in Beijing has never seen such a crazy series of good news. The momentum of suppressing the rebellion is simply destructive, and the suppression of the rebellion in Yan Kingdom is just around the corner.

The people of Yanjing were filled with joy, and some wealthy businessmen were so happy that they could finally keep their family business. They were so happy that they cooked porridge in the street to help the hungry people, and celebrated the consecutive victories of the counter-insurgency army.

However, these wealthy businessmen were all unlucky afterwards, and their homes were all ransacked. The reasons for the raids were various. One of them was that they were not benevolent for the rich. Profits are punished, and confiscated property is confiscated.

It doesn't matter if he is treated as a profiteer, but once the label of collaborating with the enemy is removed, he will be cast aside by all people.

"Sweeping away the decline of the previous rebellion, Lian Zhan Lian victorious, happy!"

"You don't even look at who is going out, King Yongping! Who is King Yongping? That's King Ning's son!"

"That's right. It is said that King Yongping went out with King Ning when he was young, and he learned the skills of King Ning very well. With King Ning's ability, one can imagine. Thinking about the time when King Ning swept Dayan's civil strife Isn't that true? Who can stop it?"

"Yan Shanming, Qi Wuhen, is sung all over the world. I heard that Meng Shanming is serving under the command of Yongping County King!"

"My Dayan has such a strong general, it is really a blessing for Dayan!"

A group of students from the capital were discussing in the restaurant in the capital, drinking heavily and discussing loudly.

A man by the window was Song Guo's envoy stationed in Yanjing. Hearing these remarks, he turned his head and said in a low voice, "How did this battle happen? I'll summon you back and ask what's going on."

"Yes!" The entourage at the side left quickly.

The streets and alleys of the capital, as well as teahouses and restaurants, were abuzz with the continuous news of success. Everyone was beaming and discussing excitedly.

At the beginning, the imperial court really wanted to cheer up the good news, but afterward, it turned out that the trend was a bit wrong. The whole capital was full of the prestige of King Ning and his son. up.

And the ransacking of the homes of those wealthy businessmen who gave relief also originated from this.

Among them, the insiders were indifferent and silent about what happened to those wealthy businessmen.

Those who don't know hear the wind is the rain, wishing to dig up the ancestral graves of those wealthy businessmen, and some people will ridicule them with the word "foolish people"...

"How did the war end like this?"

Inside Da Sikong's mansion, good news came one after another. Sitting behind the case, Tong Mo threw away the good news in his hand, and couldn't help rubbing his forehead, feeling a little headache.

At the beginning, he was relieved when he saw good news and saw that the general trend should be stable, but now he has a headache instead.

The battle was won too quickly, and the logistics supplies couldn't keep up with the army's pursuit speed. How could he, the person in charge of the supplies, not have a headache, and he would have to bear the responsibility if he caused an unfavorable reversal in the war.

However, it didn't take long for the relevant personnel to gradually understand what was going on. What was the unprecedented victory? It was the rebel Wu Gongling who had no intention of fighting, and left a lot of cheap money for the counter-insurgency army to pick up. No wonder Ping The rebel army won in a hurry, and the princes of all walks of life are lying about their achievements in suppressing the rebellion.

Shang Chaozong also turned a blind eye to the false reports. He knew what should be strict and what should be controlled on the battlefield, especially in the current situation, which is what he needs.

The court of the Yan Kingdom could only pretend to be deaf and dumb about this. It could not tell the people that we did not win the war, and could only say that we had won.

There is something wrong with the recent atmosphere in the courtroom.

After the court was over, the sun was fine that day. Shang Yongzhong, who walked out of the hall, looked up at the clear sky, the sky was as clear as blue.

Not long after Fangshou walked down the steps, an eunuch came over and asked him to stop, and said in a low voice: "My lord, Dragon Palace Master is here to invite you." He gestured to a certain place.

Shang Yongzhong looked back, and saw Long Xiu, the lord of Xiaoyao Palace, standing behind the moon gate in the distance, nodded slightly at him, and then disappeared behind the gate.

Not knowing what he was looking for, Shang Yongzhong didn't dare to delay, he walked quickly, entered the moon gate and looked around, saw Long Xiu standing by the pond with his hands behind his back, walked over to salute, "Master Dragon, what do you want me for? "

Long Xiu smiled slightly, "My lord is the Grand Sima of the Yan Kingdom, what do you think of the current counter-insurgency war?"

Shang Yongzhong said: "The general trend is set, Wu Gongling has lost its territory, and the supply will not last long, so it is doomed to fail."

Long Xiu: "I don't think His Majesty is willing to give Shang Chaozong this great achievement in suppressing the rebellion. Is the prince interested in going to the battlefield to replace Shang Chaozong?"

This is to give credit to myself! Shang Yongzhong's eyes flickered, and he understood that the consequences of Shang Chaozong's killing of Shi Sheng finally appeared, this is to attack Shang Chaozong.
