16. Zhu Chuwa Wax Pills

The plains on the north side of Liangshan are the so-called "Dayunliang" manufacturing workshop.

The Dayunliang is a combination of cloud ladders and opposite buildings, and the project volume is extremely large, but Zhu Li also boasted that as long as the Dayunliang comes out, the moats, sheep, horse walls and horse face walls in Fengtian City will be useless, and Li Shi can only surrender.

The person responsible for the construction was Fa Jian, the unlucky monk in Ximing Temple, who was the monk who had swallowed up the relics by Liu Pi and extorted 200 stagnant coins by Gao Yuetao's fifteen slum; and the supervisor was Qiao Lin, the minister of the pseudo-gong dynasty. The rebels mobilized thousands of soldiers and forced Chang'an people to cut down half of the sacred cypress forest on Qianling as work materials.

Seeing that Zhu Li was so positive and optimistic, Li Huaiguang and Li Xilie became suspicious.

Because now, among the "two Li and one Zhu", only Zhu Li has the weakest military strength (shares). So far, only Yao Lingyan's 6,000 Jingyuan soldiers came to him, and were taken to him by Li Zhongchen to steal Tongguan. Now, on the battlefield in Fengtian City, the main force is of course the Changwu Army and the Huaining Army, and the two Lis are all the children of the two Lis. Therefore, what Li Huaiguang thought in his mind was: "Is Zhu Li trying to weaken my troops?"

As for Li Xilie, his idea was even more in place: "Isn't Zhu Li pretending to rebel, but he actually wants to harm my Huaining Army?"

Nowadays, Wu Shaocheng, Wu Shaoyang, and Chen Xianqi in Huaixi have been sending news: When Li Xilie attacked the capital, the Huaixi army was left behind, and the economy of several states in Huaixi Town was also very poor. Fighting against the powerful imperial court, the Central Plains Fangzhen, gradually showed signs of fatigue; in addition, Heshuo and Ziqing Fangzhen, which were originally said to be a good soldier, is now ambiguous, and it seems that they are sitting and watching.

So Li Xilie asked Zhu Li directly: King Qin, you have been swearing before, saying that Jingyuan will soon have tens of thousands of soldiers to respond to you and come to Fengtian to join us, but there is no news yet. Why is this?

Zhu Li was a little embarrassed. The slaves he sent were originally going to cause trouble in Anding, Liangyuan, Lingtai, Fengxiang and Longzhou. The so-called "flowering everywhere" has not been received yet.

If things are not harmonious, then he doesn't even have the capital to play with Li Huaiguang and Li Xilie.

"Please stay with King Jin and King Yan, good news will be coming soon." At this moment, Zhu Li could only smile and bow to explain carefully to Er Li.

"If Fengtian City remains undescended after Dayunliang attacks the city, then you can only use Yuanping's strategy to go back to build the old city of Xianyang, control the Xiwei Bridge, and strive for a long time." Li Xilie said that he could no longer hesitate and drag on. If he could fight, he would fight. If he should retreat, he would retreat.

After nightfall, there were fires inside and outside Liangshan, and busy figures and whips were everywhere in the workshop.

In the camp, Su Yu, dressed in brown clothes, sneaked in. Zhu Li, who was restless in front of the case, hurriedly stood up and pointed at Su Yu and asked, "Jingyuan, what's going on with Fengxiang!"

Su Yu couldn't stop crying, and knelt in front of the master with a buzzing sound, and said in a hoarse voice: "No one has succeeded, it was destroyed by Gao Yue and Wei Gao..."

"I'm so annoyed..." Zhu Li immediately felt his teeth tightening, and blood rushed to the sky spirit cover, his ears roared, his feet became weak, and he almost fell to the ground.

Then Su Yu said in detail: Duan Xiushi and Gao Yue took the lead in Fengtian City, first conquered Lingtai County, then captured Tian Xijian's Liangyuan City, and then Qiu Jingzhong of Jingzhou City was finished, and our arrangements in Jingzhou were completely destroyed.

Wei Gao from Longzhou Yingtian also took the opportunity to retaliate, killed Niu Yunguang, and annexed his troops.

"Fengxiang, where is Fengxiang?" Zhu Li was so anxious that he just stamped his feet.

Now Li Chulin from Fengxiang Mansion is his only hope.

Su Yu said that Li Chulin killed Zhang Yi, gathered thousands of Fan Yang soldiers, and won over thousands of Fengxiang and Longyou children.

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhu Li said that he finally didn't lose all the cards.

But in a blink of an eye, Su Yu told him again that Duan Xiushi had pulled up tens of thousands of troops and went directly to Fengxiang Mansion. He didn't know how long Li Chulin's army could last.

"I'm afraid it's Gao Yue's plan again." Zhu Li was sweating profusely. He understood that Li Chulin's card was his only trump card in western Beijing now. If he lost, he would really be completely shut down.

But before Zhu Li could think about it, Su Yu knelt there with an expression that he wanted to say but dared not say it. Zhu Li paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. Seeing this expression, he shouted: "Say!"

"Then Gao Yue asked me to give you a message to the master." Su Yu said that I was intentionally released by Gao Yue.

"He still has the face to talk to me!" Zhu Li was furious, "I actually spread news in Jingyuan that I had sacrificed my country...I! (At this time, Zhu Li was so angry that he couldn't laugh or cry. He felt that he was in a situation where he was not a human inside or outside). I..." His voice slowly lowered, full of helplessness and pain.

When Chang'an City fell, if he received the news in advance and could chase the emperor to worship the heavens, he would be a loyal minister.

But the emperor is the one who abandoned me. What can I do? I am also very desperate. It’s not that I don’t want to be a loyal minister, but that I really don’t want to be a dead loyal minister.

Faithful to the country? It's impossible. I don't want to die for the country, so I can only maintain cooperation with the rebels and soldiers to maintain the situation. I originally wanted to use this to get the emperor's understanding and learn from Wang Wei and Wang Youcheng, but Yuan Xiu, Wang Hong was too radical. I was also confused for a moment and supported King Han. This is a principled error. Heshuo and Ziqing were at most a crime of separatist and independent against the court, while I was the most serious crime of rebellion!

"Otherwise, you will escape back to Youzhou? Although Zhu Tao and I have a grudge, they are still my dear brothers after all... No, no, if you throw away Chang'an City, then everything will be over. If you go back to Youzhou, just as long as the emperor has an edict, Zhu Tao is afraid that he will not tie me up to the emperor to protect himself."

The more Zhu Li thought about it, the more he became, the more he became more chaotic, the more he felt that the road ahead was really dark and unpredictable.

Finally, he couldn't help but decide to take a look: "What will Gao Yue say to me at this time?"

At this time, Su Yu presented the wax balls, and Zhu Xiao unfolded the letter inside, "Gao Yue called me, tell me to return to the wrong path, and wait for an opportunity?"

Zhu Li immediately threw the letter to the ground, and then raised his boots in anger, and stepped on the wax balls so hard that he slapped it. "Anyway, you are such a loyal minister!"

After stepping on it, Zhu Li rubbed his hands restlessly and thought hard about the good strategy of "can dance on the chicken"...

At the same time, in Fengtian City at night, Emperor Li Shi sat in the inner hall of the bell tower, with Jiang Gongfu, Lu Zhi, Wei Cigong, Chen Jing, Pei Yanling and others sitting next to him, mostly Hanlin Bachelor's and Jixian Academy Bachelor's Bachelor's.

The water leaked and dripped slowly.

Li Shi lowered his face, with a little sadness.

Everyone understood that if the emperor had already been in a normal day, he would have been in a state of ecstasy, with various micro-operations deployed.

But since Gao Chongjie and Lu Xiqian died in battle, the emperor was defeated and became taciturn.

Ministers such as Yan Zhenqing, Xiao Xin and Xiao Fu simply took away all the paper and pens. The emperor and the bachelor could only lock them in the inner hall and stared at each other.
