A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1493

[Chapter 1482 The King of Puppets]

The Luoyang Imperial Palace is splendid and resplendent. After the Beitang family established the country, they took Luoyang as the center and controlled the north. After four emperors, Beitangfeng is now the fifth emperor of the Northern Han Empire.

Beitang Tianwei, the founding emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, was of course the hero of the generation of Wentao and Wulu, and the former emperor Beitanghuan was not a foolish leader. At least when Beitanghuan was in power, the Northern Han Dynasty was not afraid of Southern Chu, and even once With a slight advantage, the Han army also fought the Huai River and invaded the territory of the state of Chu.

It’s just that Nanchu is also the hero of the past dynasties, with famous officials and brave generals, otherwise the whole world should have been named Beitang long ago.

Beitanghuan’s biggest mistake was that he didn’t set up a prince before his death, and he didn’t clarify the position of the prince.

If the prince had been established early, or even the inheritance strength centered on the prince, today’s Northern Han would never have faced such a bad situation.

Beitanghuan was in his prime, but suddenly died, which is something no one thought of.

His death directly led to the vacancy of the throne, and in the absence of a clear successor, several princes fought each other for the throne.

Powerful empires are often not destroyed by foreign enemies, but weakened or even destroyed by internal consumption.

The Northern Han Empire justified this statement.

In the battle for the throne, although Beitangfeng relied on the Northwest Army to have the last laugh, the national strength of the Northern Han rapidly weakened in just over a year, and it is still in a state of chaos.

Beitangfeng and Qu Yuangu controlled Luoyang, but there are still many places in the entire Northern Han Dynasty that did not buy Luoyang’s account, and even did not recognize Beitangfeng as the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

I heard that some local officials recruited troops to buy horses, intending to stand on their own.

But Beitangfeng couldn’t manage those for the time being. The biggest crisis in front of him was the people of the Chu country. The people of the Chu country were victorious, but Zhong Liao was retreating again and again. In this situation, it was a sure thing for the Chu army to come to the city.

Qu Yuangu can sing and dance, but Beitangfeng can’t laugh.

Although he is not smart, he understands a truth. If Luoyang city is broken, not only will he not be able to sit on the dragon chair, but his life will not be guaranteed.

The ministers can surrender to the Chu army at that time, and even still get a half-official position, just change the court to serve another master, but the emperor cannot.

Throughout the ages, there has been no such thing as a good end for a conquered country-king.

So although he was on the throne,

from the very beginning, this chair was not stable, and all kinds of bad news came one after another. After ascending the throne, there was no good news that made Beitangfeng laugh.

Yesterday, there was another report presented by Zhong Liao. The front line was exhausted, and the soldiers could not eat enough. If this goes on, the Han army will disperse on its own without the need for the Chu army to fight.

The tens of thousands of Han troops under Zhong Liao were the only force able to resist the Chu troops approaching Luoyang. Once the Han troops disbanded, the Chu troops would be able to kill the city in the blink of an eye.

Thinking of the difficulties on the front line, Beitangfeng hated Qu Yuangu’s teeth.

Although in a predicament, Beihan is not without the opportunity to reverse the situation.

The Northwest Army entered Luoyang, looted and looted, with countless wealth and silk, and the warehouses were full of food. If all the money and food were supplied to the front line, the morale of the front line soldiers would naturally be boosted, and they would be able to fight to the death with the Chu army. More importantly, Qu Yuan There are still 30,000 brave and elite soldiers in the northwest under Gu’s hands. If these people are sent to the front line, the strength of the Han army will be rapidly strengthened, not to mention repelling the Chu army, it is more than enough to defend the existing territory.

As long as there are a few victories on the front line, those forces in the northern Han territory will be timid and dare not act rashly. If the Chu army can really be repulsed, Beitangfeng believes that no one in the Han territory will dare to give birth to the court. Unruly heart.

So after the situation in Luoyang stabilized, Beitangfeng immediately asked Qu Yuangu’s 30,000 cavalry to reinforce the front line.

It’s a pity that he forgot that Qu Yuangu was the one who obeyed the Northwest Army, not his Beitangfeng.

He even forgot that Qu Yuangu did not regard him as an emperor at all, but only as a puppet to control the Northern Han Dynasty.

He had always thought that after his uncle took him back to Luoyang to get the throne, he would help him to rule the world, but in the end he realized that this uncle was more terrifying than his brothers.

Greedy for money, lustful, arrogant and domineering, all officials in the court looked up to Qu Yuangu, the king of Jin, not the emperor Beitangfeng.

Qu Yuangu had already explained to him his wise strategy, which was to let Zhong Liao consume the strength of the Chu army, and when both Chu and Han were defeated, the Northwest Army would come out like a tiger to destroy Gu Laxiu and clean up the people of Chu.

Therefore, part of the food can be sent, so that the Han army still has the strength to fight against the Chu army, but the army’s salaries must not be sent.

Beitangfeng once thought that the Northwest Army will join hands with the Han Army to repel the Chu Army and promote Zhong Liao at that time, not only to buy Zhong Liao’s heart, but also to have a brave general like Zhong Liao to check and balance Qu Yuangu, but such a dream is obviously is shattered.

The decision Qu Yuangu made, Beitangfeng could not change.

Qu Yuangu was full of confidence, but Beitangfeng felt that the end was coming.

At the time of the national disaster, the emperor’s will could not be carried out, and the generals who held military power were even more selfish.

The new emperor of the Han Dynasty even thought about killing Qu Yuangu, a powerful minister, and summoned Qu Yuangu and his son to the palace, and when the soldiers came out, they chopped off their heads.

But this thought only flashed for a moment, and then it was over.

Not to mention that this plan needs careful preparation and cannot leak the slightest rumor, even if it is really successful, if you kill Qu Yuangu and his son, will you be able to take back the emperor’s power?

Thirty thousand northwest tigers and wolves are located in Luoyang.

Qu Yuangu was alive, and the 30,000 cavalry did not dare to move, but once the Qu family and his son died, the 30,000 cavalry would never obey the emperor’s orders. The banner of revenge for Qu Yuangu washed Luoyang with blood. At that time, the first person to die was probably himself, the emperor, and then Luoyang would become a purgatory on earth.

Whether Luoyang will become a purgatory in the world, Beitangfeng may not care very much, but he does care about his own life.

Knowing that he has completely become a puppet, and it is impossible to change anything, Beitangfeng began to indulge in wine and sex, lying on a woman’s belly all day long. He glanced at the book that Zhong Liao came up with, and he would send someone to find Qu Yuangu to think of a solution. .

In a trance, he would think of Beitangqing.

If Beitangqing was still alive, would the people of Chu dare to be so arrogant?

Even if they hit the city of Luoyang, as long as Beitangqing is there, they can still beat those Chu people back to their hometowns.

Beitangqing has always been loyal to the imperial court. If he were there, Qu Yuangu would not be able to kneel down and lick his shoes.

By the way, there is also the North Hall Magic Night.

That was the great master. When the Northern Han Dynasty came to the collapse of the country, wouldn’t that great master still take action?

Drunk life and dream death, I do not know day and night.

In a trance, he heard exclamations again, Beitangfeng barely sat up from the woman’s belly, and saw more than a dozen eunuchs and palace ladies running over here, he frowned, seeing the eunuch palace goddess panic, Suddenly realizing something, he suddenly woke up, and said in shock, “Is it the people from Chu who came to Luoyang?” The

eunuchs and the ladies were lying on the ground, and someone had already said: “Your Majesty, it’s not good, there are a large number of soldiers and generals. He

rushed into the palace.”

“My sword!” Beitangfeng stood up, feeling top-heavy and swaying, stretched out his hand and said, “Hurry up and bring my sword, I will fight the Chu people to the end!

” Many palace servants rushed to the inner palace in a hurry. Beitang’s clothes were disheveled, and they looked for swords everywhere, but their sword of the emperor was nowhere to be seen.

The sound of the armor rubbing sounded, and then from outside the palace gate, like a tide, countless armored soldiers rushed in, one by one, like wolves and tigers, murderous.

Beitang’s spirits were scattered, and he only thought about how the people of the Chu country broke through Luoyang so quickly. Are all the defenders in Luoyang eating dry food?

But he soon realized that there was something wrong with being frivolous.

How could the attire of these soldiers look like the Northwest Army under Qu Yuangu?

I didn’t hear the sound of fighting just now. There were many guards in the palace, all of whom were placed by Qu Yuangu in the palace to protect him. If the people of Chu came in, these guards should fight with the people of Chu, but he didn’t have any. Hearing the sound of fighting, the group of soldiers rushed into the inner palace.

The Northwest Army rushed into the inner palace?

Without my will, how dare they?

Is this a rebellion?

“You guys are so bold.” Seeing that it wasn’t the Chu army, Beitangfeng felt a little relieved, and raised his finger to the soldiers: “This is the inner palace, there is no summons from me, you actually broke in? How many heads do you have? He shouted: “Where is the prime minister? Hurry up and summon the prime minister.”

“Is the emperor calling for an old minister?” When he walked over, beside him, it was Qu Manying.

Seeing Qu’s father and son, Beitangfeng was even more relieved.

With them there, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com will have no worries about their lives.

“Prime Minister, they are so bold that they dare to trespass into the inner palace, hurry up!” Beitangfeng was about to ask Qu Yuangu to severely punish these unannounced soldiers, but he was only halfway there, and he hit him suddenly. He shuddered, and the words behind him were hard to hold in his throat.

These are all soldiers from the northwest. Without Qu Yuangu’s order, how could they have broken into the inner palace?

Qu Yuangu was wearing armor and a knife, Qu Manbao was also wearing armor, and those eyes were extremely cold.

wrong!

Beitangfeng realized that the situation was not right, and involuntarily took two steps back, his voice trembling uncontrollably: “Prime Minister, what are you guys doing? Did the people of Chu come to Luoyang?”

“Your Majesty, the people of Chu We haven’t hit Luoyang yet.” Qu Yuangu looked at Beitangfeng with a strange look: “It will take a while for them to hit Luoyang.”

Suddenly, Beitangfeng seemed to understand something, and his fear disappeared. He smiled and said, “Is your uncle leading the troops to the palace to usurp the throne?”
