The reason why Li Hong did this was that he did not want these three Zhechong prefectures to become the final winners after the chaos in Yangzhou. Therefore, he had to take advantage of the hands of Cao Wang, Li Jingye and others, either to take advantage of their own, or to let them not help each other in the uncertain situation.
More importantly, Li Jingye and Cao Wang may not care, but Li Hong must consider whether these three soldiers will take advantage of the fire to rob the people and create more chaos in Yangzhou.
Therefore, no matter what, Li Hong was not allowed to make the three Zhechong prefectures lose their ability to move in a short period of time and prevent the Duwei of the three Zhechong prefectures from kidnapping the soldiers of Zhechong mansion.
"It's better to be quiet now. Tell Luo Binwang that after arriving at Li Zhen's residence of King Yue He immediately captured Wei Siwen, and then forced Li Jingye to lead his troops to the residence of the king of Yue and let them confront each other first. " Li Hong looked back at Pei Zhong and said with determination.
Otherwise, if Li Jingye doesn't come out in the governor's office and only asks for self-protection or waiting for the news of Li Jingyou, then he should fall into a passive position and face the king of Yue himself.
"Yes, your highness." Pei Zhong saluted and said.
After Pei Zhong had left, the grain and the cheetah ran over at the same time and whispered, "sure, Li Ming, king of Cao, and Li Xian, king of Pei, went to Zhechong house to persuade the three Zhechong houses."
"Do you know which one it is?" Li Hong asked coldly in his eyes.
"In a Zhechong mansion at the west gate of Yangzhou City, I saw more than ten riders passing along the street, and there were King Cao and King Pei inside." Grain of grain appearance dignified say.
"Prepare the horse and order Wei Tuqi to lead fifty people to follow me." Li Hong took over the cross knife in the hand of grain of grain and said coldly.
"Your Highness, I will follow you."
"No need. To prevent Li Jingye from attacking suddenly, you and Pei Zhong will guard here." Li Hong said as he walked to the back garden of ManJiang garden. There must be many eyes at the
gate, such as Li Jing Ye or Yue Wang. The back door will definitely have some of them, but God knows how to manage some Eyeliner unnoticed.
"Hello How about I go with you The eldest daughter ran over and looked at Li Hong, hoping to say.
"Save it. You want to see my jokes in the Tang Dynasty, don't you?" Li Hong shakes off the hand of the big to the emperor's daughter, the head also does not return to say.
"I want to learn how to lead the troops in your Zhechong mansion and how to prevent them from rebelling." Seeing Li Hong's resolute attitude, she had to stand still and continue to say.
"If you ask Bai Chun, she can teach you."
At the back door, grain of grain and Cheetah nodded to Li Hong, indicating that there was no suspicious person at the back door.
Wei Tu Qi led a tall horse to Li Hong. Li Hong took the reins, pointed to Wei Tu Qi and ordered, "start at once. You can lead the way."
"Yes, your highness." Wei Tu Qi's heavy voice sounded as if to shake the dark night.
A total of 52 riding slowly from the back door of ManJiang garden, under the guidance of a lantern, after leaving the end of the street, they immediately set off their horses and galloped.
In the houses of the people who got up early on the street, the light that was originally on went out silently and quickly when a rush of horse's hooves passed by. Even the sound of some bolts falling and locking could be heard.
At this time, Yangzhou city had begun to take shape. Although it was not as large as that of the Song Dynasty and the previous generation, it was no longer a small city.
About a quarter of an hour later, Li Hong and other talents slowly sped to the gate of Zhechong mansion. Just after the horses stopped outside the range of the crossbow at the gate, a crossbow whizzed over to warn them not to approach.
"Who are you? Name it." The loud and clear voice from the gate.
Wei Tu Qi took a look at Li Hong. Seeing that Li Hong nodded, he urged his horse to move forward two steps. While watching out for the cold arrows in the night, Wei Tu Qi yelled: "I was ordered by Governor Li to come to make peace with Duwei. I think that just now King Cao and King Pei had just entered. The governor was afraid of misunderstanding and that the road would not be peaceful. He sent us to meet him."
There was a moment's silence in the gate, and then he said, "throw in the token."
Wei Tuqi hears the wind and takes the token thrown by Li Hong behind his head. Without looking at it, he throws it in the direction of the sound.
"Your Highness, will they agree? After all, King Cao and Wang Pei just went in. " After confirming that he had received the token, Wei Tu Qi urged the horse to retreat out of the range of the crossbow and asked in a low voice.
Li Hong had no expression on his face and said calmly, "I don't know, but if I just reported my name, I'm afraid you've been shot into a hedgehog."
Wei Tu Qi was startled. He felt that his highness was alarmist. But he did not dare to refute or ask why. He had no choice but to keep silent and wait for the result of checking the token.
Li Hong calmly said to Wei Tu Qi, "if it was you, what would you do? Now, when you know that there are three forces in the city, who will you choose and who you will not choose? "
This question made Wei Tu Qi dumbfounded. He wanted to blurt out his words, which naturally belonged to his highness. When he got to his mouth, he was swallowed back.Seeing that Wei Tu Qi was hard to answer, Li Hong himself replied, "if I were the Duwei of Zhechong Prefecture, we would be the first to exclude and not to be attached to it, because they were very clear that they had not been convinced by Pei Zhongjiang and Luo Binwang to belong to the Tang Dynasty at the first time. Then they would return to the Tang Dynasty again. In the end, when the turmoil was calm, the court would not let them go, so they would never let them go Will want to return to the Tang Dynasty again. What they can choose now is to see whether King Cao is powerful or if Li Jingye can control Yangzhou, and who will give them more benefits, they will return to whom. "
"This Don't these people have too little position, and they don't have the character and integrity of Tang soldiers! " Wei Tu Qi was stunned and said in disbelief.
Li Hong was surprised that Wei Tu Qi still understood the meaning of character and integrity. However, on second thought, since he came back from the expedition to the west, Wei Tuqi had never heard of him going to pingkang square in Chang'an, where there were brothels and other places. However, he heard that he often wandered around Chongwen hall and occasionally drifted into the school, sitting in the last row listening to the teacher Learning.
"This is the south of the Yangtze River, not the north. There are few Zhechong houses here, and most of them have never experienced a real war or a real battlefield. Therefore, in their minds, every turmoil in the Tang Dynasty is a good opportunity for them to get promoted and become rich. It is to coerce the imperial court or gain benefits from other rebel forces They can even burn, kill and plunder the financial resources of the common people when the court has no time to take care of them during the period of the riots. When the riots subside, they will be praised or not in accordance with the disposal methods of the previous dynasty or the early Tang Dynasty. So, they've long been used to making holes at this time. "
Listening to Li Hong's analysis, Wei Tu Qi clenched his fists like a casserole, and said in a voice of hatred: "if such a person goes to the battlefield, it's not useless at all, it's just a drag! It should be killed without mercy! "
"Where can we kill them? Killing is not the way to solve the problem. As long as we let them understand that the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty will not be the same as before, as long as they deprive them of their vital interests, they will not be able to stand in line for the first time in the future. The era when they want to eat both sides together is gone."
As Li Hong's voice fell to the ground, a voice came from the door: "you are too many. Some of you are left outside. Only 20 people can enter."
"Promise him." Li Hong looked at Wei Tu Qi with some hesitation. The scabbard in his hand stabbed Wei Tu Qi and said.
"OK, no problem. Can we go in now?" Wei Tu Qi wanted to swallow the life of Zhechong mansion alive.
"Yes, you are not allowed to ride on horses. You can only enter on foot."
Li Hong jumped off his horse for the first time. He didn't even take the horizontal knife in his hand, but threw it to the soldiers who stayed outside.
Wei Tuqi saw that his royal highness had already dismounted from his horse, so he ordered twenty people to jump off the horse's back, followed closely behind Li Hong, and walked to Zhechong mansion.
When he got to the gate, Li Hong did not expect that. At once, hundreds of soldiers surrounded him. Under the leadership of a captain, Li Hong and others were surrounded in the middle.
"Turn in your swords before you can see our captain." The school captain watched Wei Tu Qi and others with vigilance. When they were besieged by the crowd, they all brushed out the horizontal knives and said aloud.
Wei Tu Qi slowly put the horizontal sword back into the scabbard, and then motioned to the soldiers to put the sword into the scabbard, and threw the horizontal sword at the foot of the captain.
The captain looked at the twenty men and finally put all their swords on the ground. After he ordered the soldiers to take them away, he did not take them to the Duwei at the first time. Instead, he tried: "on weekdays, when you see our Duwei, you never bring weapons to show friendship. Why do you even bring weapons today You don't understand the rules? "
"This is an unusual weapon I had to bring. In the past, Yangzhou city was peaceful. What's the use of a sword? Now that his Highness the prince has arrived in Yangzhou, he must have some action soon. When we come out to see the Duwei, we have to prevent the prince from intercepting us on the road. You can't help being so careful. " Li Hong flashed out from behind Wei Tu Qi and said with a smile.
"So you feel the pressure from your royal highness, so you come to ask us adults again? The prince's highness is very powerful now. My Lord is considering whether to turn to his highness. " Said the captain with a sneer.
"So the governor said that the post of governor of Runzhou is not non-negotiable. Today, Yangzhou's situation is complex and changeable. After tonight, Yangzhou may be surnamed Xu, so I hope Duwei will consider it carefully." Li Hong walked forward two steps again, looked at the captain and said.
