Chapter 415: Escape
Tian Lingzi stood on a high ground, looking around at the clusters of Qianniu Guards who looked a little messy around and gathered together in the west.
He is also a person who is a little versatile in military tactics. Of course, it can be seen that this seemingly messy team is actually very particular. Once needed, these soldiers can form units that are interconnected but can fight independently in the shortest time. Even if a unit is broken, the gaps exposed by him will be immediately supplemented by other units and will not affect the overall defense line.
Of course, they are all cavalry, so the focus of this lineup is on the offense.
The five thousand Niu Guards formed a large circle on the outermost periphery, and inside, there were more than a thousand black-armored warriors who had emerged from nowhere. The Tang Dynasty was still red, so the robes and clothes of the soldiers of the Qianu Guards were all red, but the more than a thousand men were all black. This reminded him of some information he had seen before, that is, the soldiers in Wuwei were all black-armored and black-armored.
Tian Lingzi naturally saw many clues when marching these days. These later black armored troops were exactly the same as the soldiers of the Thousand Niu Guards.
No, no! He shook his head suddenly, and he wanted to rebel. It was not that they were like Qianniu Guards, but Qianniu Guards were like them. Although Gongsun Changming explained to Tian Lingzi that these people were some guards for slaughtering tigers and doing business, Tian Lingzi was neither stupid nor blind. He could still distinguish between the caravan guards and the army that was so serious.
This is clearly an elite force among the elite.
The Caodian and military orders used by Qianniu Guards are very different from the Shence Army. Tian Lingzi knew that they came from the same source as the Wuwei Army, and this black-clothed army was undoubtedly arranged by Wuwei for a long time.
In other words, Wuwei Li Ze was probably expected today for a long time ago. That was why he secretly sent an elite force to sneak into Chang'an, and it was not until this time that it suddenly emerged.
Understanding this fact made Tian Lingzi sweat in his vest.
If Li Ze had a strange intention, with these more than a thousand elites and five thousand Niu Guards, they would be enough to cause huge waves in the defenseless Chang'an, and it can be said that they could do something easily.
But Li Ze actually just used them as a guard to protect his mother's wife's return home. At this point, Tian Lingzi would not think that these men in black were here to protect the emperor. If Li Ze really had such kindness, he would not have just sent such a unit quietly without doing anything else.
This made Tian Lingzi not know what to say.
Do you think Li Ze has a strange intention? He can get Chang'an City more easily than Zhu Wen, but he does nothing.
Do you say that Li Ze is loyal? But he sat down to the chaos of Zhaoyi and Zhu Wen's rebellion and ignored it. With Li Ze's insight, if he reminded the court early, Zhu Wen would not have caused such unrest.
Thinking of the incident where Li Ze's side had instigated the court to dispatch a large army to attack Tian Chengsi, a cold sweat suddenly popped out of Tian Lingzi's vest.
Chen Bangzhao and the 100,000 Shen Ce Army led by King Fu Li Xin was the last capital of the court and the last reliance of the emperor. It was precisely because of this army that the emperor could still control Heluo in Guanzhong. But now that this army is gone, Zhu Wen came naturally.
Is Li Ze intentionally causing such chaos now?
Tian Lingzi dared not think about it anymore.
Because in this process, he became an allied army in Wuwei, and fully supported Wuwei's opinions and made great efforts in the process of causing the imperial army to conquer Zhaoyi.
If this layer of window paper is pierced, I am afraid I will not be able to get it well, and it will be unpleasant on both sides.
In the future, he would have to make a living on Li Ze's territory! He touched his chin, smiled bitterly, shook his head, and saw through it and didn't say it out loud. When he saw Li Ze in the future, he clicked a little tactfully, so that Li Ze would understand that he was not a fool.
At this moment, the soldiers were having a meal.
Above piles of bonfires, there were large iron pots. The water was boiling. Then a soldier in charge of food came forward, took out a piece of cloth and threw it into the pot to cook. After a while, he picked up the cloth. The soldiers began to line up to the big pot one by one. The soldiers took a spoon and scooped the water from the pot into the soldiers' bowls. The soldiers had some fried rice and flour in their bowls. Once the hot water was poured, they became a pile of mud.
In Tian Lingzi's opinion, these foods were naturally like pig food, but the soldiers seemed to eat sweetly. Tian Lingzi only knew that the soldiers should have thrown into the pot with a piece of vinegar or salt cloth, but what they didn't know was that Wu Wei put a lot of effort into this piece of cotton cloth. Not only did this piece of cloth have different seasonings, but also a lot of seasonings were added to it when stir-frying rice and flour, and even extremely expensive spices were not hesitant.
Although it seems simple, it is really expensive.
The army was stationed by the Yellow River. If the soldiers were willing, they could go fishing in the river to improve their food. However, no soldier did such a thing. There were a few people who looked like female soldiers who made a fishing rod and caught several fish there. It is said that it was because Liu Ruyan's son's wet nurse needed to ensure nutrition so that she could have enough milk.
The soldiers on the outside eat very easily, and the inner core circle is naturally much better than them. At least they can set up a small pot and make a few small stir-fry and cook one or two soups.
Even though he was fleeing, the privileges of the superiors still existed naturally, and no one raised any objections. Tian Lingzi was sure that the soldiers below could probably smell the scent of the core circle he was in, but no one looked here.
Because for those soldiers, their commanders ate the same food as them, which is enough, just like Chen Bing, Chu Sheng, and Tu Hu, they also ate somewhere.
These are the people that the soldiers are really familiar with.
As for people like Emperors, Tian Lingzi, Liu Ruyan, and Mrs. Wang, they are too far away and are unattainable.
If you are too far away, you will not be able to feel jealousy at all. The reason why a person becomes jealous and resentful towards some people is that he feels that he can actually do that, but he has not achieved his goal due to one reason or another, so he is dissatisfied with it. If there is no hope of achieving a goal at all, the rest will only be admired and worship.
After all, there are too few heroes like Xiang Yu who saw the grand occasion of Qin Shihuang when he was traveling and lamented that he could replace him.
"Master, it's time to have a meal." The leader of the guards of the Tian family who was accompanying came over and bowed.
In this core circle, although Tian Lingzi brought only less than 200 people, he formed his own small camp. Unlike the soldiers camping open-air, Tian Lingzi and others still set up tents. Although they were not as good as the emperor's big tent, they were not bad.
Back in his tent, there were three dishes, one soup and a bowl of rice on the felt blanket. After sighing, Tian Lingzi picked up the bowl and digged a big mouthful.
Those soldiers had a good taste when eating porridge. Why did they have vegetables and meat or chew wax?
I hope to arrive in Wuyi earlier. Since returning from Wuyi, Wang Duo has praised Wuwei's food and even sent a chef to the General's Mansion to learn cooking skills. This time he arrived in Wuyi, he wanted to see it.
Now Tian Lingzi is not worried at all whether they can arrive at Wuyi. He has seen everything on the high ground before, and if everything is as he thought, then Li Ze will definitely make other arrangements, and there will be no problem with their arrival safely.
After just finished the meal, I took the brewed tea from the guards and sucked Tian Lingzi, and then I saw Gongsun Changming lifting the tent and entering.
"Changming is here, sit down." Tian Lingzi smiled and pointed to the felt carpet on the ground. "It's simple because of the slightest, but it also has a unique flavor. This is the new tea sent from the south this year. Not to mention, since General Li developed this brewing method, it has gradually become more and more convenient. What's more, after drinking it for a long time, you can suck many other flavors."
Gongsun Chang clearly waved his hand, but his face was a little solemn: "Shizhong, Your Majesty is sick."
Tian Lingzi was slightly stunned, "Your Majesty was a little unhappy these days. I think it was because of the hard work of traveling and the bad mood left Chang'an. This is also true. It's not a big deal, right?"
Gongsun Changming shook his head: "The emperor has been losing appetite for three days. Today he ate some things and vomited out. What's more important is that the emperor vomited blood."
Gongsun Changming lowered his voice and said, "The queen was panicked and we only found out after we left someone to find her wife."
Tian Lingzi immediately widened his eyes.
"What should I do?"
Gongsun Changming spread his hands: "Although there was an imperial physician following him, he was fleeing, and we would never be able to stop somewhere to let the emperor concentrate on recuperation. So, I would like to ask you to tell the emperor about it. It would be best if the prince could set up a new tent and not live with His Majesty, so that it would be better to make the prince have another tent and not live with His Majesty. This would be a better plan."
Listening to this, Tian Lingzi opened his mouth wide and looked at Gongsun Changming blankly.
