"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1064
Pingyang Province, the base camp of the rebels.
"Has the bandit army already occupied Hexi?"
After the rebel emperor Long Tian received the report, his face was also full of excitement.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the bandit chieftain Chen Ziang personally led an army to occupy Hexi, and has occupied most of the prefectures and counties in Hexi Province." Lu Quan, the rebel prime minister, said with a smile.
"Okay, ok, that's great news for us." The rebel emperor Long Tian was very happy.
After all, if the Qinghe army invaded Hexi, it would threaten the royal capital, the core seat of the Far Eastern court.
However, if the Far Eastern court wanted to keep the capital, it was bound to have a showdown with the Qinghe army and a big battle.
The brutal fight between the Qinghe army and the Far Eastern court can greatly reduce their pressure and allow them to concentrate on dealing with the wolf cavalry going south in the Baishan province.
"The fiercer they fight, the better, and order the shadow guards to closely monitor them."
It is undoubtedly great news for the rebel emperor Long Tian that the Qinghe Army has invaded the Hexi Province.
"Your Majesty, although the bandits occupied most of Hexi, they were not captured by them, but thrown to them by the Imperial Guards on purpose. This makes me very puzzled."
Seeing the happy rebel emperor Long Tian, ??the rebel Prime Minister Zuo Lu Quan felt a little worried.
"You mean, the court deliberately gave up the Hexi area?" Long Tian asked.
"From the current situation, this is indeed the case, but the Far Eastern imperial court has been continuously mobilizing troops from the front line in the river to return to the capital, and they will not fight the bandit army. This makes me puzzled."
"It is estimated that they deliberately lured the enemy to go deep, so as to lengthen the supply line of the bandit army, and then concentrate their forces to fight the bandit army in Gyeonggi Province." Long Tian judged.
"It's possible. If this happens, the bandit army will probably suffer a lot."
"If the thieves were so easy to chew on, we wouldn't have been defeated by them many times."
"This time the imperial court wants to kill the army in one battle. I think they will shoot themselves in the foot. Maybe they won't be able to eat the bandits, but they will lose their teeth instead."
Long Tian also had a deep understanding of the powerful fighting power of the Qinghe Army, and was deeply afraid of it.
He felt that it would be very difficult for the Far Eastern court to concentrate its forces to defeat the Qinghe Army in one go.
"Anyway, no matter what, they hit theirs, we hit ours, and they have nothing to do with each other."
Long Tian was happy to see the fight between the Far East imperial court and the Qinghe army, so he just ordered strict surveillance and no meddling.
In fact, Long Tian lacked effective intelligence support, which caused their judgment to be wrong.
The abandonment of the Hexi Province by the Far Eastern court this time was not the wish of the Far Eastern court, but only the decision of Hu Ziyang, Generalissimo of the Imperial Guard.
The emperor Longjun of the Far East court passed away, and Prime Minister Zuo Yanjing blocked the news. He wanted to take the opportunity to eradicate dissidents, support the crown prince who was only a few years old, and then take power behind the scenes.
Hu Ziyang, Generalissimo of the Imperial Guard, was one of the important figures who were eradicated, but the news had leaked out, Hu Ziyang already knew, and now the capital has become a whirlpool of power struggle.
Hu Ziyang, the generalissimo of the imperial guards, was not a fool either. On the one hand, he pretended to be ordered to go to the capital, but secretly ordered the army to follow.
This time Hu Ziyang also went all out. He directly gave up the entire Hexi Province and took all the troops away.
His purpose of taking away these troops is very simple, that is to try his best to win the victory of seizing power.
Moreover, after seizing power, he didn't think about taking the king and not leaving, but was going to take the crown prince hostage and go west.
At that time, he will have hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, as well as the orthodox heir of the crown prince.
Although they will go to the west to live in a corner, but as long as they work hard and wait until the various forces are dead or injured, they will suddenly fight out, and they may be able to fight for a fortune.
Even if they were unable to return to the capital in the end, he was still the overlord in a corner.
At that time, no matter who becomes the master of this land, he, Hu Ziyang, has the territory and the chips of the army, and he can also exchange for monstrous power.
It was precisely because Hu Ziyang had such a plan, so he took all the troops directly to the capital this time, and planned to retreat westward after robbing the crown prince, capturing Nanchuan, Beichuan and other places.
Although there are a large number of rebels making trouble in those places, Hu Ziyang still doesn't pay attention to them.
So now that the Qinghe army followed him closely and occupied the Hexi province and other places, he didn't care about it because he didn't want these places in the first place.
With his current strength, even if he robs the crown prince, he still can't defend too many places, so it's better to hide in the west to avoid the enemy's sharp edge.
What Hu Ziyang didn't know was that the rebels in the Western Province, Nanchuan Province, Beichuan Province and other places in the west were not alone.
The rebels in these places actually have the shadow of the Qinghe army behind them. Even if he robs the crown prince, there will be no place for him in the world by then.
The Far East Dynasty was in turmoil everywhere, and the forces of all parties fought against each other endlessly.
All parties have their own little calculations, and feel that everything is under their own control, but they don't know that they are just pawns in the hands of others.
When Hu Ziyang rushed to the capital of the Far East Dynasty, this ancient and prosperous city in the capital is now shrouded in an atmosphere of terror.
All the gates of the royal capital were blocked, and a large number of guards in strong clothes guarded everywhere, only allowed to enter and not allowed to exit, and there was a chilling atmosphere in the air.
Serious soldiers of the Imperial Guard stood guard at every corner of the capital, and patrols frequently passed by.
The people in the various districts of the royal capital have been banned, that is, the imperial court is arresting rebels, and no one is allowed to go out without authorization, otherwise they will be killed.
The hundreds of thousands of people in the city naturally don't know what happened in the capital, but they can see the streets through the cracks in the doors and windows, and people are taken away by the imperial guards from time to time.
These people who were taken away by the soldiers of the Imperial Guard included not only the princes and ministers of the previous court, but also some ordinary merchants and wealthy households.
And at Caishikou in the west of the city, there have been endless screams these past few days, and countless rebels have been killed every day.
The streets at Caishikou in the west of the city were soaked in blood and turned dark red, and truckloads of corpses were transported outside the city for burial.
In the majestic and majestic Qinzheng Hall in the imperial city, there is also a strong fishy smell at this moment.
In the side hall of Qinzheng Hall, the corpse of the deceased Emperor Longjun was stored here. The weather was extremely hot. In order to cover up the smell, Yan Jing ordered people to find a lot of dead fish and store them here.
?They claimed to the outside world that Emperor Longjun likes to eat fish recently, which caused a strong fishy smell around the Hall of Qinzheng.
And on the throne of Qinzheng Hall, Yan Jing, the left prime minister in charge of power, has already sat on it rebelliously, and has had an addiction.
