Chapter 153 Forced into the Palace
Siming Mountain,
Giant dragon boat,
Above the main hall,
The ministers stood in regular rows on both sides, discussing the war in Siming Mountain.
At this time, except for Li Yuan and his son, Song Zhi of the Song clan, and Dugu Ba of the Dugu clan, everyone else was a running dog of the Yuwen clan.
King Yang Lin of Backer was ambushed and had to break out by force. He went to other places to rest temporarily and had no way to return to the giant dragon boat immediately.
At the same time, along with King Yang Lin, the 400,000 soldiers also left.
It can be said,
At this time, it returned to the original state.
The Yuwen clan was the only powerful family, and the power balance was unbalanced.
Yu Wenzhi said loudly: "I suggest that we retreat immediately."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ming couldn't help but start thinking about his proposal.
At this moment, Li Yuanba was unconscious and seriously injured, and only half of his troops were left. If he continued fighting, he would not get any benefits.
but,
Before Wang Ming could finish thinking.
In the court below,
Nearly a hundred ministers and officials,
They all echoed, "I second the motion!!!"
"I second the proposal!"
"I second the proposal!"
……
This immediately woke Wang Ming, who was in a state of contemplation.
He glanced at the group of people below.
Wang Ming asked Li Yuan, the leader of the Li Clan, "What do you think, Duke Tang?"
Li Yuan looked at his nose and his heart, and said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty! I second the motion!"
Wang Ming looked at Dugu Ba and Song Zhi standing beside him, wanting to see their opinions.
Dugu Ba and Song Zhi immediately said, "I second the motion!"
Hearing this,
Wang Ming closed his eyes for no reason and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The emperor's power was truly hollowed out.
Why did Wang Ming ask them?
Because Wang Ming did not want to retreat, he hoped that someone would support him and not retreat.
Not long ago, Wang Ming received the news:
Upon hearing the news that the emperor was killed by the coalition of 18 anti-kings, Shang Shitu, the commander of Hulao Pass, and Xin Wenli, the commander of Hongni Pass, each led an army of 150,000 to rescue him.
Yuwen Chengdu led an army of 300,000 soldiers to escort the emperor.
King Yang Lin will definitely lead his 400,000 troops back to fight.
By then, the four armies will be combined into a million-strong army.
If we encircle Siming Mountain from the opposite direction, we will definitely be able to wipe out all eighteen rebel kings.
As long as the eighteen rebel kings are dealt with, the domestic unrest can be temporarily calmed down.
After a period of recuperation, the national strength can slowly recover.
Wang Ming glanced at Dugu Ba of the Dugu Clan and shook his head secretly: "The Dugu Clan really has no one to take up the banner! They are all good-for-nothings. At this time, they don't stand with me, but foolishly follow the other three clans to sabotage each other."
Wang Ming had no hope for the other three clans.
The Song clan also surrendered to the previous dynasty and were ready to revolt at any time.
The Li family, Li Yuan and Yang Guang are relatives (I don’t care whether they wanted to rebel in history!). He had no idea of rebelling, but he could not resist the filial son Li Shimin!
The Yuwen clan were descendants of the Northern Zhou royal family, and their determination to rebel was beyond words.
Finally, Wang Ming didn't think much about it and decided to retreat!
So I agreed with their opinion.
Wang Ming has let it go.
It doesn’t matter if he is not the emperor!
Not only does he have a lot of responsibilities, but he also has no obedient subordinates.
After this retreat, Yu Wenzhi would probably rebel.
If he knew what was best for him, he would use the emperor to control the princes.
If he disobeyed, he would be killed and a child would be made emperor.
Run early!
It’s better to find a mountain to practice Taoism.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Yu Wenzhi wanted to retreat, but the rebel kings of the eighteen countries did not want them to retreat.
As the battle prolonged, Wang Ming's side was increasing its troops, and their eighteen rebel kings were also increasing their troops.
At this moment they numbered eight hundred thousand.
Because King Yang Lin, the Backer, was forced to leave, the strength of the two armies was completely unbalanced at this time.
The eighteen rebel kings will naturally not continue with the previous foolish operation of fighting generals.
They directly pushed the troops forward.
It was a precarious moment.
Countless soldiers of the Yuwen clan were killed or wounded in an instant.
The people from the Dugu, Li, and Song clans were all watching the joke and didn't say anything.
The people from the three factions were confident that they could lead the main figures out and there wouldn't be too much loss.
But this time, the leader of the Yuwen clan, Yu Wenhuaji, would not die here.
They will also lose the capital to compete for the Central Plains.
This made Yu Wenzhi feel a little regretful. He would not have tricked Yang Lin if he had known earlier.
At first, his idea was to kill Yang Lin and take over his troops.
Not only did he solve his enemy's problem, but he also expanded his army, killing two birds with one stone.
But unexpectedly, these rebels were so useless that they let Yang Lin escape.
In fact, the reason there was that the 18-way anti-king coalition was not strong enough!
It was Qin Shubao, the marshal of the 18-way anti-king coalition army, who was easing the flow again to repay his patron King Yang Lin for his kindness in his early years.
He also felt at ease with the water.
The excuse was to preserve strength and get rid of the incompetent emperor Yang Guang.
Don't lose the big picture because of Yang Lin.
Wang Ming doesn't care and doesn't care about anything.
They also had people set up a stage in the main hall of the imperial court on a giant dragon boat and listen to songs.
It was so relaxing to enjoy the singing and dancing leisurely.
At this time, Wang Ming's strength had recovered and he was not panicked at all.
Although his skills are not enough to activate the "Vajra Indestructible Divine Art", it is not a problem to break out.
Wang Ming didn't care.
But the mentality of others completely collapsed.
For example, a young and handsome officer of the Dugu clan saw Wang Ming, who looked like Yang Guang, enjoying himself at such a critical moment when he was about to die.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: "This Yang Guang is so incompetent, and my Dugu clan is so closely tied to him, what should I do?"
I am worried about the future of the Dugu clan and don’t know where the future of the Dugu clan will go.
When Li Shimin on the side saw this, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. Ordinary people just thought he was smiling on purpose to fool the tyrant Emperor Yang Guang.
in fact,
He was really happy.
He saw hope!
Strengthened belief!
The belief of replacing Yang Guang.
Yang Guang was so incompetent that Li Shimin would definitely be able to successfully overthrow his throne.
Song Zhi of the Song clan could not reveal any clues. He stood aside with a dull look, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Yu Wenzhi didn't care about Wang Ming's operation at all.
Compared with Yang Guang's pretentiousness, Wang Ming's behavior is nothing!
Yu Wenzhi had been Yang Guang's lackey for many years and had witnessed countless of Yang Guang's licentious acts, so he was no longer surprised.
Yang Guang did not recruit concubines, which was considered restrained.
His face was full of sorrow, and he began to feel sad for the soldiers of the Yuwen clan who were still dying in battle.
These are all the accumulation of his Yuwen clan!
The troops accumulated to fight for the throne!
Although it was not all of his troops, it still made his heart bleed.
