Chapter 74 Variables
Just at noon, Canghu led the Yun family's hometown hero to come over without stopping.
After deducting those injured, Canghu only brought more than 500 people. However, these bloodthirsty Killers were all full of energy, as if they were wolf smelling the smell of blood.
"Mr. Gongsun, the inside line of the imperial guards came to report that the Lintong Hou's generals had entered Chang'an. The people from the Tingwei Office personally put them into the city with Lord Zhidu's order. Could it be that our plan was discovered by the court? If that happens, it will be a big deal that will be wrong and you will be unable to protect your head."
An aide in charge of contacting the imperial guards rushed into Gongsun Gui's study room.
Gongsun Gui was closing his eyes and resting. He had just sent King Liang away in the morning. Now is the last time to rest, and there is a bad battle to fight in the evening. I don’t know when the next time I go to bed, so it’s always right to seize the time to rest.
"really?"
The words of the staff made Gongsun Gui open his eyes all at once. It is definitely a variable to have such an extra army at this time.
"It's true that my subordinates have already visited the Yun family to see it. There are 500 cavalrymen, all of whom are fully armed with armor and armour."
"Is there any news in the palace?"
"In the palace... Oh, by the way. Someone in the palace said that His Majesty would review the Yulin Guard tomorrow and would say what to do in the exercise." Gongsun Gui said his guess in his heart, but it was just a guess. For such a big thing, you must not make a decision based on your own guesses.
"Correspond to monitor the movements of the Yun family and immediately repay the news." Gongsun Gui sat up from the ground, pulled his shoes and circled around the study, thinking about the variables of his actions tonight.
These people from the Yun family are all guys who have been fighting for the rest of their lives. If they turn to one side at a critical moment, the situation of the battle is hard to say. The imperial guards in Chang'an City control all the gates of Chang'an. However, the palace guards are in the hands of the Yulin Guard. After a few days of silver bullet attack, it is only the imperial guards in Xi'anmen were bribed.
Most of the people in Xiliu Camp went to the Great Wall to garrison in the north, and only 4,000 people left behind. The main force of Liang State was also allocated. Only three or four thousand people could pass Hangu Pass to support. The two sides were only 3,000 people, and the Yulin Guard stationed in Weiyang Palace had more than 3,000 people, and the Yulin Guard in other palaces had no less than 5,000 people. When the matter was about to come, Gongsun Gui could only use this self-hypnotic Ah Q spirit to anesthetize himself.
With many expectations, night finally came to Chang'an City. The huge full moon slowly rose from the horizon, and all the gates of Chang'an City were closed.
The guardian of Xi'anmen Gate, Chang Jie, looked at the moon in the sky and issued an order to close the city gate. Sixteen strong soldiers shouted horns and closed the heavy city gate.
Chang Jie was a Jianzhong Captain with a salary of 800 stones, and his official position was not low. However, Gongsun Gui still used 5,000 gold and a position of Pinglu General to buy him. He had already obtained Gongsun Gui's souvenir, and tonight, the soldiers of Xiliu Camp would lead the soldiers from his Xi'anmen Square to Chang'an. He seized the Weiyang Palace and supported the Liang King to throne.
He originally had a thousand soldiers under his command, but the tension in the war in the northern border was transferred out of 600. Now he only had more than 400 people under his command. Chang Jie looked at the imperial soldiers who were patrolling everywhere. He thought that he was not sure that everyone would rebel with him. His plan was that as long as he controlled the more than 100 people guarding the city gate, the rest had to submit as a result.
Tonight he specially arranged his brother-in-law at the city gate. With the order of his own, there was absolutely no problem opening the city gate. The suspension bridge was under the supervision of his own personal soldiers. These more than 30 people were absolutely loyal to feeding them with silver.
As the city gates closed, the uninformed soldiers began to look for places to hide from the cold wind. Standing on the city wall to drink wind in winter is really not a good job. Many soldiers got into the arrow tower or inside the city tower. They lit a bonfire, bragging about the past while keeping warm.
The city of Chang'an is still prosperous, and the market has not yet been closed. The vendors in the East and West City are trying their best to sell goods that have not been sold today, and the winged men in the brothel are warmly greeting guests. At this time, they can't go out after entering the brothel and can only spend the night in the brothel. The girls' night money is expensive.
A fire dragon winds towards Xi'anmen. Chang Jie discovered the team under the guidance of his personal soldiers. The drums in Jingjie in Chang'an City began to ring, and the officials of the Gagofang City were also waiting by the door, waiting for the bells of the drum tower to close the door.
The street patrol officers have already started patrolling the streets, driving passers-by to hurry home.
The fire dragon winds to the Xi'an Gate, and at the same time, the Weiyang Palace is full of Yulin Guards.
Chang Jie looked closely and found that all the people came were Yishui cavalry. Everyone was wearing pitch-black scales and had hideous faces on their faces. Even the horses were covered with black Ma Kai. Everyone was holding a very long spear, and a metal crossbow hung on the butt. There was a hard bow in the bow bag on one side of the neck, and a curved sword was slung on his waist. The silver-white scabbard reflected the cold metal light in the moonlight.
Chang Jie swallowed, and it was obvious that such a team was not something he could afford. Even the Yulin Guards of Weiyang Palace did not have such equipment. Only one family in the Han Dynasty had such cavalry, that is, the general of the army, Lintong Marquis.
And just in the evening, Chang Jie had just heard that the Marquis of Lintong had entered Chang'an.
"Who, don't get close. If you get closer, you'll shoot arrows." The imperial guards on the city tower shouted.
"The general of the army, Lintong, is here, and the Xi'anmen Guards come quickly to pay their respects."
The voice of Cang Xiong's broken gong was filled with a strong Guanzhong accent, and it could be heard from two miles in the empty dark night.
Chang Jie had no choice. Zhou Yafu's Xiao Liu Army had no shadow. The robin cat beasts under him were not the opponents of the Yun family's elite soldiers at all. In a state of anxiety, Chang Jie led thirty personal soldiers down the city tower.
