Gyeongju's original name was Honghwa County. In the first year of Takeok's reign, it was renamed Gyeongju and governed Hehua County. It governed seven counties: Heshui, Maling, Huachi, Guide, Luoyuan, Honghua and Hongde. Lu Zhaoci led an army of three

Thousands of people came out of Pingliang City and headed towards Qingzhou to kill. Along the way, they saw ruins and ruins, with countless casualties. Apparently when Yang Rui retreated, he destroyed the county towns along the way to avoid Lu Zhaoci.

Get some supplies from here.

By the time Lu Zhaoci arrived in Qingzhou, it was already five days later. The army gathered at the foot of Qingzhou City, waiting for the order to attack. On the city wall, Yang Wenqian's flag was also raised. It was obvious that Yang Wenqian had left Lingzhou.

I rushed back to Gyeongju. After all, this old nest is a old nest and there is no room for failure.

On top of the city wall, Yang Wenqian frowned and led his civil and military men to watch the Tang Army camp below the city. They saw the white camp extending to the horizon. There was a big flag pointing straight into the sky at the center of the city. Above the flag, a

The word "Lu" in Douda is clearly indicating that the leading general this time is Lu Zhaoci, the great general of the Tang Dynasty.

"I didn't expect that the general would come in person." Yuwen Yingfei looked sad. At this time, he regretted it. He thought that the prince would really respond by raising troops in the capital as Li Yuanji wrote in his letter. This would enable him to do so.

His army occupied the great cause of justice, but now it seems that his army has become a rebel. He didn't expect that Li Yuanji would actually deceive him. It's just that it's too late to regret at this time.

"Why, Lord Yuwen is afraid of Lu Zhaoci?" The person who spoke was a handsome young man. If Lu Zhaoci were here, he would definitely find out that he was Yin Mingkong, who had been missing for a long time. Unexpectedly, Yin Mingkong would come to Yang Wenqian.

The army is coming.

"Hmph, I heard that Master Yin also suffered a lot at the hands of the General. In the end, even his sister became the General's bed partner and gave birth to a chubby boy." Although Yuwen Yingfei was afraid of Lu Zhaoci

, but it does not mean that he is also afraid of Yin Mingkong. Yin Mingkong came the day before yesterday, saying that he was ordered by Wang Shichong to come to help Yang Wenqian. Yang Wenqian was originally full of confidence in Li Jiancheng, and he also wanted to be a pillar.

A general or something like that, I didn’t expect that Li Jiancheng, a man with a silver spear and a wax head who was not capable of doing big things at all, was summoned to the Renshou Palace by Li Yuan’s imperial edict and imprisoned. But Yang Wenqian was not Li Jiancheng. In a fit of anger, he simply raised his

The soldiers rebelled. Just when he was worried about his lack of strength, Yin Mingkong appeared and brought support from Wang Shichong. Now, Yang Wenqian became more confident. Under Yin Mingkong's command, in just one day,

By occupying Lingzhou, there was no longer a threat behind him. When he was about to send his army to take Chang'an, Lu Zhaoci came over. In desperation, he had to return to the army to save his home base. The home base was still the most important.

"Okay, don't talk anymore. You still have to deal with this Lu Zhaoci carefully." Yang Wenqian's face was full of unruly expression. You can tell at a glance that this kind of person must be a troubled hero with no loyalty at all. He didn't know Li Jiancheng either.

How do you think this person is your confidant?

"If he doesn't send out troops quickly, our troops will be directed towards the city of Chang'an. By then, even if he has great abilities, he will be helpless. Li Jiancheng's confidants in the Tang Dynasty don't know how many. When they saw the general arriving at the city of Chang'an, they raised their eyebrows.

There are countless soldiers, how can Lu Zhaoci defeat them one by one?" Yin Mingkong's face showed a hint of coldness.

Yu Wenyingfei on the side heard the words and sneered secretly in his heart. If Lu Zhaoci was so easy to deal with, then he would not be able to achieve the position of general. He was trying to control the situation between the East Palace and the Prince of Qin's Palace, even with His Majesty's repeated tactics.

He was weakened invisibly. Look, in the past, I wanted to weaken his military power, but now what can I do? Li Shimin did not send any troops, and the two princes of the clan did not move. He only used Lu Zhaoci.

The general and king of the county, Lu Zhaoci, is also a very important character. He first rescued Lingzhou in order to suppress Yang Wenqian under Lingzhou, attacked from both sides and defeated it. Later, Lingzhou fell, and he did not hesitate to attack Qingzhou.

Prefecture, forcing Yang Wenqian not to dare to march eastward to Chang'an. Although the troops in his hands are not superior, a series of actions have turned passive into active. This is not something that Yin Mingkong can do. No, anyway, I am the emperor.

The person who was sent to deliver the imperial edict was forced. It was not Yang Wen who surrendered voluntarily. Find an opportunity to escape back to the general's camp, and maybe you can save a life. Yu Wenyingfei, who had made up his mind, was silent on the city wall.

He stopped talking and watched Yin Mingkong's performance coldly...

"Hey! What is that?" At this moment, I suddenly saw the door of the Tang Army camp opposite opened wide, and several knights rushed out. The leader was wearing black armor, another person was wearing silver-white armor, and there were several knights behind them.

, dashing towards Gyeongju City.

"Lu Zhaoci." Yin Mingkong's eyes lit up, staring at the dark figure, his eyes filled with blood-red light, and his pale hands firmly grasped the city wall.

"Is that Lu Zhaoci?" Yang Wenqian asked in surprise as he looked at the horses approaching from the city.

"Yes, it is this guy. When I was in Luoyang, I heard that this guy likes to go to the front line and observe the terrain in person before a battle. This guy claims to be superb in martial arts and has always been bold. I didn't expect him to be so arrogant today.

If you come here to see the terrain early, it will be a suicide. The general can lead more than a thousand cavalry and surround Lu Zhaoci here. The tens of thousands of troops on the opposite side can retreat without a fight. Chang'an will fall into the hands of the general from now on.

Not to mention the position of a general, you can also be an emperor." Yin Mingkong's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he couldn't help but urge.

Yang Wenqian was overjoyed and was about to take action when Yu Wenyingfei on the side snorted coldly: "According to legend, Lu Zhaoci was extremely cunning. He knew this person's intentions with the help of five hundred cavalry in Guanzhong. At this time, the opponent had just taken root.

In the main camp, he led several cavalry to survey the terrain. Who knows if there is any trick in this. Once the general's cavalry just went out, they were surrounded and annihilated by the opponent. What should they do? I thought it was better to be careful.

That's good. Anyway, the city of Lingzhou is high and deep, so why are you afraid that Lu Zhaoci's attack will fail?"

"This?" Yang Wenqian's expression changed, with a trace of hesitation on his face. What Yin Mingkong said was not unreasonable. But what Yuwen Yingfei said was more correct, and it went deep into Yang Wenqian's heart. This Lu Zhaoci

He is not the scholar Yang Shidao, he is not a simple person. Every time he goes on an expedition, he turns the tide. He can be said to be the pillar of the Tang Dynasty. How can such a person put himself in danger?

I heard that Lu Zhaoci has five hundred elite cavalry under his command, which is equivalent to the black armored cavalry of the Qin Palace. They are extremely powerful, and each of them is one to ten. If this kind of army is ambushing around, I will lead thousands of elites to attack.

Unfortunately, not only did I fail to catch Lu Zhaoci, but I also lost myself. It’s better to be careful about this kind of thing. This Yin Mingkong and Lu Zhaoci have a hatred of destroying their family and exterminating their family. Naturally, they are eager for Lu Zhaoci to do this.

Just go and die. People whose minds are blinded will sometimes have their eyes blinded by hatred. If Lu Zhaoci was killed so easily, he wouldn't have killed the Manchus of the Yin clan.

"Shu Zi is not worthy of being plotted against." When Yin Mingkong saw Yang Wenqian's appearance, he knew what Yang Wenqian was thinking and couldn't help but shouted angrily. His eyes even glanced at everyone fiercely.

"Humph, of course my uncle has his reasons for using the army. Why should you, a rotten scholar, talk too much?" Yang Rui sneered at the side: "Who knows what you are thinking. The one who killed your whole family was Li Yuan.

, and it’s not Lu Zhaoci. Hehe, now your beautiful sister has become Lu Zhaoci’s concubine, and you have given birth to a chubby little boy for him. You can also be regarded as his brother-in-law. This brother-in-law is harmful.

My uncle? Aren't you afraid that your sister will become a widow? From my general point of view, you just don't have a good heart. How could Lu Zhaoci be killed so easily? If he was killed so easily, I'm afraid he wouldn't have done it in the first place.

You ran away after your master. Huh, let my uncle send troops at this time, I think you want to use my uncle's soldiers and horses as a way to get promoted!"

"Huh, you're so presumptuous." Yin Mingkong's expression suddenly changed. He didn't expect Yang Rui to say these words, and what he didn't expect was that Yang Wenqian on the side didn't stop him...

When Yang Rui saw Yin Mingkong's appearance, he was even more convinced that Yin Mingkong really wanted to give Qingzhou to Lu Zhaoci. He snorted coldly: "Why, I have nothing to say now!"

"Humph, they are just a bunch of villains. His Majesty's reliance on you to contain Lu Zhaoci seems to be delusional. Since you are unwilling to obey my orders, I will just go back to Luoyang." A trace of sarcasm appeared at the corner of Yin Mingkong's mouth.

color.

"You can't leave." Yang Rui's expression changed and he said to Yang Wenqian: "Uncle, this guy knows the reality of our army. If he leaves the city, he will definitely seek refuge with Lu Zhaoci. Once Lu Zhaoci knows the reality of our army, I will

How can the army resist Lu Zhaoci's attack?"

"What do you mean?" Yang Wenqian showed a trace of hesitation on his face. To be honest, he was unwilling to kill Yin Mingkong, not only because he was sent by Wang Shichong to support him, but more importantly, after this period of time, he was unwilling to kill Yin Mingkong.

Through the contact, he found that Yin Mingkong was still a very talented person. So there was a trace of hesitation on his face.

"This guy is Lu Zhaoci's brother-in-law. If you don't want to kill him, let's pass his head to Lu Zhaoci." Yang Rui's eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty.

"No, no." Yuwen Yingfei quickly dissuaded him: "Although Mingkong offended the general with his words, he did it for the sake of the general. Since the general is unwilling to go out of the city to capture Lu Zhaoci, then forget it, and there is no need to behead Mingkong.

No. After all, Mingkong has made great contributions to the general."

"Forget it!" Yang Wenqian nodded and said: "For the sake of your lord, let me spare Master Yin this time! But from now on, Master Yin can only stay in the post house and is not allowed to go out easily. After retreating from Lu Zhaoci,

, I will personally go to plead guilty. Come here! Lord Yin, please go down and rest." After saying that, Yin Mingkong did not wait for resistance, and invited him down from the tower.
