Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Page 2104

"Your Majesty's will, why do you need the consent of Duke Xun? Do you think you are a servant?"

"you……"

"What's wrong with me? Is it reasonable for you to resist the decree? Duke Xun, you're calling the generals here, and I want to read out His Majesty's decree on the spot. I want to see how many people are as courageous as you , How dare you resist the order and disrespect it!"

After finishing speaking, Guo Ye put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist. If Zhang Liang still shirked it, it could only mean that this person suspected that the imperial decree was false and that his intention to kill His Majesty Li Er was true.

In other words, he wanted to rebel!

At that time, if you can't say it, you can only get out of the account of the Chinese army and make further calculations.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang didn't make any excuses, and said: "Alright, then follow Qin Guogong's words. Come, let's beat the drums and gather the generals!"

dong dong dong~

After the sound of the three-way drum, the main generals of the army had already gathered in the tent of the central army.They are Chang He, Zuo Nan, Ran Rende, Liu Yingxing, Zhang Wengan, Pang Xiaotai, Cheng Mingzhen, and Zhang Jinshu.

When all these people arrived, Guo Ye couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.Even if Zhang Liang wanted to rebel, he couldn't instigate these people.

To be fair, none of these people are very nice.To put it lightly, they are rebellious, and to put it more seriously, they are rebellious.

I think that Yang Guang had no way at the beginning, and all the heroes rose together.It has become commonplace for these people to fight out from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood.

The reason why they are in the Tang camp now is not because they are so loyal to Datang, but because they were defeated by His Majesty Li Er and had to surrender.

None of them are inferior to Zhang Liang in ability, but they are not as trusted by the emperor as Zhang Liang.

If it weren't for His Majesty Li Er's will, how could Zhang Liang control them?

If it is said that they rebelled individually, Guo Ye believes it.But let’s talk about twisting them into a rope and working together to do something.Except today, no one has that ability.

The ceremony is over.

Zhang Liang coughed lightly, and said: "Everyone, Guo Ye of the State of Qin has taken a decree from His Majesty and wants to read it out to everyone. According to what he said, this decree should have been read out by Xue Rengui, Marquis of Jiangzhou. But this person has returned to his life now."

He paused, and continued: "Xue Rengui, the person in charge, not only has never seen it, but he has never heard of it. The process of his being named Jiangzhou Marquis is a bit unbelievable. Therefore, I can't understand this imperial decree." Confirming the authenticity, I don’t know if it should be executed..."

Before he could finish speaking, Guo Ye took out the imperial decree and said loudly, "All generals accept the decree!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Hula la, people knelt on the ground.

"The imperial edict said: I was trapped under the city of Liaodong... Qin Guogong Guoye quickly recruited troops from Khitan, Xi clan and other tribes to serve the king... All soldiers and horses in Pyongyang Road are subject to his restraint... I hereby."

"I will obey your orders!"

Without surprise or danger, all the generals took orders in unison.

Zhang Liang said angrily: "Don't you doubt that this edict is false? What if Qin Guogong, Guo Ye, has already voted for Goguryeo and spread a false imperial edict to everyone?"

Chang He rolled his eyes and said, "Duke Xun, do you believe this? Duke Qin is not a good Duke of Tang, so he voted for Goguryeo? Could it be that Yuan Nanjian can take off his dragon robe and make way?"

Zhang Wengan also echoed: "The Duke of Qin is as rich as the enemy. In Chang'an City, you can eat whatever you want, drink whatever you want, and play whatever you want. In these days, don't talk about the king, just give An emperor... In short, as long as he is not stupid, he will not betray Tang!"

Zhang Liang said: "Even if what you said is reasonable. But Xue Rengui came here strangely. If he is the secret work of Goguryeo, Qin Guogong will also be deceived by him."

Cheng Mingzhen said: "Even if Xue Rengui is a secret agent, we will recognize it. Isn't the meaning of this decree to transfer your military power to Qin Guogong? What harm will it pose to our Tang Dynasty?"

Chang He said quietly: "Qin Guogong Guo Ye leads our [-] army, how can he be much stronger than you?"

Zhang Jinshu said: "Yes, yes. I'm not afraid to tell you, I have tolerated you for a long time. You dare not charge into battle, and you don't know how to form troops. Why do you think you are the chief of the Pyongyang Road March? This decree is in line with ours. mind."

"Okay, okay, okay! Good words are hard to persuade, you damn ghosts! You are all willing to believe in this imperial decree of unknown origin, and I can't stop you. Let's wait and see, when you regret it!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Liang stomped his feet, stood up, and quickly walked out of the Chinese military tent.

"Bah! What the hell!" Pang Xiaotai looked at Zhang Liang's back and spat hard.

Liu Yingxing said: "It's hard to persuade the damn ghost? He can say it! Let's follow him to resist the decree, and we are really looking for death! He has friendship with His Majesty, and our little shoulders can't bear it. Big deal."

Chang He said in a deep voice: "Do you think Duke Xun's behavior is a bit strange?"

Guo Ye said: "It is indeed a bit strange. Duke Xun is not a mediocre person just because he doesn't know how to fight. It would be a bit difficult for him not to hand over his military power. But now it seems that his attitude is not very firm. Know what he's thinking."

Chang He said: "Not only that, he also said that we will regret it sooner or later. But if we follow the order, even if we lose the battle, it has nothing to do with the transfer of military power. Could it be that if you lose a battle with Duke Qin, you will win a battle with him?" ? It's really unreasonable."

Zhang Jinshu sneered, and said, "I know what he's thinking. For these days, our [-] soldiers and horses have been sticking to the camp and never fought once. If you don't fight, you won't be defeated. It's no better than fighting with Duke Qin Is death much stronger?"

Guo Ye shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple..."

To be honest, Zhang Liang's inexplicable words reminded him of what Zheng Xiliang said about the Tang officials who colluded with Goguryeo.

If Zhang Liang intends to help Goguryeo, it can explain why he is unwilling to surrender military power.

But the problem is that Guo Ye has no reason to surrender Goguryeo, and Zhang Liang has no reason either.

Besides, this kind of treasonous thing must either not be done or absolutely done.With his knowledge, how could he not understand this point?Why are you neither willing to hand over your military power, nor are you very resolute in your resistance?

Could it be that...he wanted to show off to others?

There are not many people in the court who can make Zhang Liang have to deal with it.Who is this person, it is almost ready to be revealed...

At this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted Guo Ye's thinking: "Qin Guogong, what should we do now?"

"What do you mean?"

"How to rescue His Majesty, you send a sentence!"

"Relieve Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry." Guo Ye smiled slightly and said, "Now everyone just keep guarding the camp and prepare troops. When the right time comes, let's smash the thieves in one fell swoop!"

"But I don't know when is the right time."

"That is……"

"Report~"

Before Guo Ye could finish his sentence, a small school suddenly ran in and said, "I would like to inform all the generals that there is an army from Goguryeo who is inviting us to fight outside the camp!"

Chapter 1929

Goguryeo military tent.

Jiang Yuge knelt down on the ground and said, "Grandpa, grandson lost the battle, it's embarrassing for you, embarrassing for us Goguryeo. You kill me."

Jiang Yishi waved his hand and said, "Why should I kill you? Grandpa is not angry, so get up."

"However, my grandson disobeyed the military order and went to battle without authorization, and lost troops and lost generals. He has grown the enemy's prestige and destroyed our Goguryeo's morale. How can you convince the people if you don't kill me?"

"Go to war without authorization? Hmph, you think too highly of yourself." Jiang Yishi said, "General Sun, tell him."
