Ten days later, Zhe Xiangyue came back and told Lu Qi that Duke Ding would not surrender to Zhang Yongde, but Duke Ding would still respect the court. If one day the court ordered Duke Ding to attack Lu Qi, Duke Ding would resign and return to Linzhou. After Lu Qi heard this, he wrote a military order and went to Hexi, dispatching 30,000 troops to Taiyuan to guard, and asked the 30,000 troops to bring a large amount of food. He began to prepare for the northern expedition of 30,000 cavalry. Just when Lu Qi was preparing for the northern expedition, a large-scale mutiny suddenly broke out in Jingzhao Mansion. Of the more than 200,000 Zhou army stationed in Fengzhou, 70,000 to 80,000 troops suddenly set off to attack Jingzhao Mansion, while Jingzhao Mansion There were 50,000 troops guarding Zhaofu in the city, and there was also a rebellion of nearly 10,000 troops. However, it was discovered and suppressed by King Ji in time, causing the internal and external attempts to seize the city to fail. Most of the troops guarding Chang'an City were originally stationed in Hehuang. The Imperial Guard did not betray King Ji. The rebels failed to seize the city, but they turned to occupy the southeastern state area of ????Chang'an City. The march was obviously to echo the Zhao family's military strength in Jianghuai. Pan Mei's hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed in Xiangzhou, and Cao Bin's army was stationed in Luoyang. When Lu Qi received the news, he didn't know whether Cao Bin and Pan Mei had sent troops, because the territory east of Jingzhao Mansion involved the interests and responsibilities of Cao Bin and Pan Mei. Lu Qi was caught in a decision, wondering whether he should send troops to deal with the rebels in Jingzhao Prefecture. He was considering Pan's military strength. Under the attack of Jianghuai and Jingzhao Prefecture rebels, he would probably surrender to the Zhao family. After all, Pan Mei was originally close to Zhao Kuangyin. If Cao Bin did not send troops to deal with the rebels, Pan Mei would be in a situation where she had no choice. If Pan Mei surrenders to the Zhao family, it will seriously affect the morale of Zhou's military and increase the Zhao family's momentum. Lu Qi does not want the Zhao family to gain an overwhelming advantage quickly, but if he sends troops, it will be It attracted a lot of hostility. In the end, Lu Qi decided to continue to sit on the sidelines. Even if the Zhao family's rebellion succeeded, he would have the military advantage to seize the Central Plains. Lu Qigang decided to sit on the sidelines. Three days later, an imperial edict came that made him extremely surprised. He was ordered to go to Jingzhao Mansion to take over as the Governor of Guanlong. King Ji resigned and stayed in Jingzhao Mansion. He was only responsible for the government affairs of Jingzhao Mansion, and granted Lu Qi the appointment and dismissal. The power of the military office of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, as well as the administrative power of all Guanlong prefectures. Lu Qi received the imperial edict and suspected that he had heard it wrong. Emperor Zhou actually asked him to replace King Ji in charge of the army, and also asked him to take charge of the military and political affairs of the Guanlong Prefecture. This imperial edict was equivalent to assigning the Guanlong region to Lu Tianfeng. Although Lu Qi was surprised by Emperor Zhou's decision, he knew it was too late and immediately ordered the cavalry to set off and handed over the military affairs of Taiyuan to Zhe Xiangyue. Advertise Emperor Zhou's imperial edict to deter Taiyuan's unstable military power. Lu Qilu traveled day and night, and sent military orders to Hehuang and Longxi to mobilize troops. He also ordered the 30,000 troops from Hexi that were transferred to Taiyuan to go to Fengxiang instead. He went to take charge of the governor's office of Guanlong and the local military administration. It is very dangerous without the cooperation of one's own military strength. Only with legality and a big stick can the Fengxiang garrison be subdued and incorporated. Jinyang City in Taiyuan is thousands of miles away from Chang'an City. Three days later, Lu Qi and two thousand cavalry arrived near Chang'an City. The other cavalry were marching at a constant speed behind. The horses should not work long distances, otherwise they would be easily injured, and if they encountered The enemy will also suffer heavy losses due to the failure of the powerful crossbow. Lu Qi was not in a hurry to go to Chang'an City, but sent someone to see King Ji in Chang'an City. He and two thousand cavalry were stationed fifteen miles away to rest. Two hours later, the envoy and more than 200 soldiers returned to the place where they were stationed. Lu Qi looked at the generals who were coming, but there were more than 20 familiar generals. They were all generals who had been stationed in Hehuang. When they met, Lu Qi nodded with a smile, and then took out the imperial edict and circulated it to the generals. one time. After reading the imperial edict, the generals were obviously excited and happy. They clearly had a backbone reaction. They all respectfully paid homage to Lu Qi. After talking to Lu Qi, Lu Qi learned that another imperial edict from Emperor Zhou had arrived in Chang'an City. King Ji It has been announced that Lu Tianfeng will soon be the Grand Governor of Guanlong. Lu Qi learned about the situation and learned that the Fengxiang rebels were revolting. They were mainly composed of Du Yuhou, the envoy of Fengxiang Jiedu, and 20,000 troops from Yanzhou. They rebelled with more than 70,000 troops, and there was also a group of troops in Chang'an City. Ten thousand troops rebelled, but because they were discovered in time and the gates were guarded by troops who had been stationed in Hehuang, the rebellion in the city was suppressed. At present, Fengxiang still has 120,000 troops who have not rebelled. Most of them are troops transferred from the territory east of Luoyang, that is, troops not close to Zhao Kuangyin. Although Fengxiang still has 120,000 troops who have not rebelled, King Ji does not dare to To patrol the army is just to encourage and appease the 120,000 troops to continue to guard Fengxiang and resist the threat from Hanzhong. But in fact, if the Jin army in Hanzhong attacks, the 120,000 troops will definitely retreat, and the Jin army will The small number is too disparate. After Lu Qi learned about it, he ordered Chang'an City's 30,000 troops to prepare for dispatch. He bluntly said that he wanted to recruit 120,000 Fengxiang troops. He needed to fight with Longyou.The generals gathered together and then carried out a large-scale army reorganization in Fengxiang. The generals understood and took the order to return to Chang'an City to prepare, while Lu Qi and the cavalry went to join the Longyou army. Three days later, Lu Qi led 110,000 infantry troops from Jiezhou, Longxi, Hehuang, and Hexi, 10,000 cavalry troops from Qinzhou, 30,000 cavalry troops from Taiyuan, and 30,000 troops from Chang'an City, totaling 10,000 troops. Eighty thousand troops came to Fengxiang, almost semi-surrounding the 120,000 Fengxiang garrison. King Ji also left Chang'an City and arrived at the Fengxiang garrison with his army. He ordered 120,000 generals from the Fengxiang garrison to come to see him, including the commanders and deputy commanders of each battalion, to record their affairs and join the army. The strong army was watching, and the order was summoned. The 120,000 troops stationed in Fengxiang were not in a unified camp. They did not move because there was no military order to surrender. Of course, there were also loyal military ministers who did not want to rebel. So when the order came, they all Li Jun should be ordered to meet him. King Ji ordered a ten-meter-square, one-meter-high platform to be built. Nearly a thousand generals from the 120,000 Fengxiang garrison arrived. Only after they arrived did they realize that there were nearly two thousand other generals standing in line. They were interspersed and lined up. Everyone around the high platform, waiting for the mystery to be revealed, felt that nothing good would happen. They all stood up and did not keep the generals waiting. They saw King Ji appear and walk towards the high platform in the center. King Ji was followed by a young man wearing handsome armor. The two of them walked onto the high platform one after the other. King Ji faced the east, took out a scroll of Minghuang imperial edict, and read loudly: "By the destiny of heaven and the emperor's will, I order Yu Guogong Lu Tianfeng to take over as the governor of Guanlong, take charge of all military and political affairs in the Guanlong area, and grant the power to appoint and remove officials. I hereby entrust you with this." " Many generals around had unexpected expressions. They looked at the stage suspiciously, and even doubted whether the imperial edict was true. King Ji turned around and said: "Lu Tianfeng accepts the edict, long live my emperor." Lu Qi knelt down to receive the imperial edict, then stood up. King Ji turned around and said loudly: "Everyone, please pay homage to the new Governor-General of Guanlong." The surrounding generals and the 10,000 soldiers on the periphery knelt down on one knee, shouting somewhat unevenly: "Greetings to the new Governor-General of Guanlong." "Everyone, please stand up," Lu Qi shouted, and the soldiers stood up and looked at the high platform again. Lu Qi turned around to greet King Ji. Just as he was about to speak, King Ji suddenly said loudly: "Lu Tianfeng received the order, kneel down." Lu Qi was shocked, why is there still an imperial order? He could only kneel down and said respectfully: "My lord, Lu Tianfeng, listens to the decree." "By the fate of heaven and by the emperor's will, Lu Tianfeng canonized as King Yu of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I do this." King Ji read aloud. Lu Qi raised his head in astonishment, and there was a loss of voice all around. King Ji looked at Lu Qi with a smile and said, "Tianfeng, accept the order." Long live." King Ji walked forward, placed the imperial edict in Lu Qi's outstretched hand, then helped Lu Qi up, looked at Lu Qi and said with a smile: "Tianfeng, you will be the same as me from now on, and I will listen to you." Lu Qi stared at King Ji, feeling confused for a moment. King Ji turned around and said loudly: "Please pay homage to His Highness King Yu." The soldiers all around knelt down on one knee again and shouted loudly: "Pay homage to His Highness King Yu." "Congratulations to His Majesty King Yu." However, some soldiers shouted more. King Ji turned around and looked at Lu Qi with a smile. Lu Qi also looked at King Ji, their eyes facing each other. Lu Qi suddenly nodded and said: "Xijin, we are brothers and we will always be." King Ji nodded sadly, Lu Qi Turning around, he said loudly: "Everyone, please stand up." The soldiers stood up and looked at the high platform. Everyone's eyes were different, but 90% of them were excited. Today they witnessed the Great Zhou becoming king.
