Chapter 236 The arrow is on the string

Before dawn, there were a few long night lights on the long street still shining in the wind with a cold light... It was too early, there was not even a pedestrian on the wet street in front of Guo Mansion. On both sides of the long street are classical buildings, and the scenery seems very deserted and lonely at this time.

Inside the gate, Cao Tai stood in front of the carriage of dozens of cavalry guards led by Lu Chengyong, turned around and bowed to Guo Shao. Guo Shao replied, "Eunuch Cao, there will be a date in the future."

"I hope I can meet again." Cao Taiqiang smiled.

Guo Shao, wearing heavy armor, looked like a torch, and looked at his eyes firmly and said, "I will definitely do it!" After that, he reached out and grabbed Cao Tai's hand, and shook it hard like a handshake.

The firm movement seemed to have a force transmitted from his palm to Cao Tai, causing the eunuch's expression to change slightly. He then came up the carriage and left the mansion under the escort of the cavalry.

Guo Shao watched him leave. When he turned around, there was a kind of fully armed personal soldier standing in front of the horse with lanterns and poking lights behind him. Even Jingniang was wearing armor. Not to mention that she was handsome in martial arts uniforms, she was very heroic.

Everyone looked at Guo Shao attentively. Guo Shao turned over and said directly: "Go away."

After leaving the mansion, a large group of horses and soldiers appeared diagonally opposite, and a group of people gathered together and marched silently along the long street. They first walked westward, then swaggered to the Imperial Street, and went directly to the Suzaku Gate from the widest road in Tokyo.

When they reached the military camp station on the side of Zhuque Gate, many horses and entourages were inside and outside the camp gate, and the generals arrived in advance. Guo Shao's way of summoning them was very simple: send Zuo You to Yang Biao's camp of the Second Army, and then write a military order and send people from the "Messenger System" to deliver them directly to the army. Nothing is needed. The Messenger is the personal soldiers of the generals, just recognize people.

Guo Shao walked into the headquarters of the Second Army and saw twenty or thirty generals standing in the hall, looking dense for a moment. Because there were only about half of the troops on duty, the number of generals on duty was smaller than usual.

"Master Guo!" "Lord..." Everyone bowed their fists and automatically made a way out in the middle. Guo Shao nodded and patted the general's shoulders casually and walked up from the middle. Li Chuyun, Yang Biao and others quickly stood beside him.

So far, there are only two generals who are familiar with Zuoxiang, Li Chuyun and Yang Biao.

Qi Tingxun was not here. He received a letter from Guo Shao last night. He was going to see Guo’s mansion this morning and would be left behind once he arrived. It doesn’t matter if he didn’t go. Now Qi Tingxun is not here, everyone didn’t notice it.

There are also Yulian and Yang, who were also sent to Mrs. Chen’s new residence last night. Bai Xiangu stayed behind Guo Shao’s mansion, which was almost empty.

Everyone was still a little noisy, but the generals were not as orderly as the soldiers. They were still talking in a low voice with people with good relationships, just like in a class with poor discipline. But soon everyone gradually became quiet because they finally noticed that Guo Shao had arrived and said nothing.

"Lord..." Li Chuyun quietly reminded.

Guo Shao finally spoke at this time: "I received the Queen's decree, token, and secret order from the Privy Council yesterday. The decree is here, please take a look." After that, he took the decree out of his arms and handed it over to his personal soldiers.

"The official family is seriously ill, and I believe everyone has heard of it." Guo Shao's voice was a little nervous, and he suddenly said sternly, "A few days ago, the treacherous minister Dou Yi slandered, and was so angry that the official family, who was already bedridden, vomited half a bowl of blood, was unconscious, and was in a coma! At this time, the queen, who should have cared for the soldiers of the imperial guards, was in charge of the overall situation; but the treacherous and stolen generals in the court communicated with the inside and outside, and the queen was ill-gotten in the house arrest!

I am a general from the Empress family, and I am deeply trusted by the Empress. Everyone knows it all! Now I can’t see the Empress, but I can only get secret orders and secret orders of the Privy Council. The rise and fall of the Great Zhou Dynasty has reached the critical moment of life and death! Now I want to let the treacherous and weak national strength and let foreign invaders take advantage of the situation. Are you so humble and bend down to your knees and surrender?”

"Fuck!" "Mom, what a sage, a civil servant..." The generals believed Guo Shao's words without thinking, and immediately cursed.

Guo Shao was very satisfied with the situation. Li Chuyun expected it was right. He raised his arm and signaled everyone to be quiet: "Are we going to call us to fight against rebellion and support the empress who is dedicated to protecting the soldiers in power? Should we follow the imperial edict to serve the empress and the center, clear the threat and defend the country?"

Luo Yanhuan, Liu Zhang, Dong Zunxun and other generals reacted and shouted loudly: "Just wait for the lord to give orders! Run in and keep those birds crying for their parents!"

Yang Biao suddenly shook a square flag and held it in the middle of the hall. The embroidered pattern of a tiger was exposed, with its teeth and claws very fiercely, with four big words written on it: Call to rescue the carriage!

Guo Shao said: "The official family is in a coma and dying. It is the queen and prince who will take charge of the major policies. What you have done today is the great achievements of the rescue and support of the lord. The position is not limited to the Hujie Army. Who is unwilling to be called? You can stand up and refute me now."

No one spoke, and a commander said, "The commander just order it! We will fight the battles now. We are not afraid of the Ten Thousand Cavalry and Liao Army, but we are still afraid of a group of treacherous slander?"

"Very good." Guo Shao nodded and asked someone to take out a rough picture hanging on the wooden rack. Looking back at the generals, "Now I start to deploy military commands."

While taking out the booklet and holding it in his hand, Guo Shao stretched out his hand and pointed to the map, and said, "The main passage map inside and outside Tokyo. The army currently stationed in our headquarters is commanding a total of 19 commands. The main battle goal is to quickly enter the front of the imperial city, Jinxiang Hall! Defend the Queen and the Privy Council center; after success, two goals: first, control and guard the front doors of the imperial city, and second, prevent some rebellions from the front of the palace department with ulterior motives."

Guo Shao said: "The Zhuque Gate, Chongming Gate was originally in the hands of our army. The Second Army (Yang Biao) was the first commander, responsible for guarding the Zhuque Gate; the Fifth Army (Li Chuyun) was the first commander, responsible for guarding the Chongming Gate. He guarded the two gates without moving, waiting for military orders. Except for the commanders of the left wing, the remaining troops were not allowed to be placed in the inner city. After the troops of the left wing passed, the city gates would be closed immediately."

"Get orders!" "The last one will get orders!"

Guo Shao took a look at the head and said, "We seized thousands of war horses from the Liao army. Before the superiors could hand over, they were kept in various military camps. After sending troops, all the people rode horses and moved quickly. When they encountered resistance, they would dismount and set up battles. Those who resisted would be killed without any reservation."

He gradually calmed down, his voice was neither too slow nor too low nor too strong, and his fingers became calm: "After the generals disbanded from here and returned to the military camp, they immediately gathered all the troops and brought their arms, and all the horses were on their way backwards. From the Zhuque Gate, the south gate of the inner city, they entered the inner city, and gathered in the open streets within the Zhuque Gate; the Second Army only needed to gather at the Zhuque Gate base; the Fifth Army also rushed over. Do you understand this step?"

Everyone was attentive and after hearing this, they all agreed: "I understand!"

Guo Shao said calmly: "It's not dawn yet, so it should be enough time to reach the established position before Mao hour. At Mao hour, the bells and drums on the city towers ring together, and each army commander immediately rode out.

The first army had all three commands; except for Zhuque Gate, the second army immediately set off from Zhuque Gate in the south, and marched along the Yu Street to Xuande Gate in the south of the imperial city. The inner city was more than 20 miles in circumference, and the Yu Street was two miles long and one hundred steps long. The short distance of horse riding for half an hour (one hour) and sixty miles was not high; I asked the above troops to start dispatching and arrive at the imperial city within two minutes (about minutes).

After two minutes, the first command of the First Army immediately controlled the guard office next to the left-hand gate of the imperial city, and did not let anyone go. Someone asked, and said that the Hujie Army was ordered to act according to the order of the Privy Councilor, asking them to ask the Queen or Privy Councilor. If they dare to resist, they will form a formation to kill! Five hundred elite soldiers are prepared, and those guards cannot be opponents."

Guo Shao also asked the commander who was appointed to repeat the military order. Only after the retelling was successful would he be relieved. Then he would hand them over the prepared written military order.

He continued, "The First Army, the remaining troops of the Second Army, turned around and went east along the street to the intersection of Maxing Street and the Second Tianshui Street; the military power was handed over to Yang Biao to unify the military order. The direction was mainly to guard the north and control the major transportation routes in the east..."

Guo Shao then assigned detailed military affairs, specifically at a certain commander stationed at a certain intersection, requiring them to block the road in a dense phalanx. In addition, Commander Yang Biao, who was on the crossroads of Maxing Street, helped reinforce the intersections as soon as possible.

After everyone repeated the military orders and sent them written orders. Guo Shao said again: "The rest of them rode their horses westward and arrived at Xihua Gate, and were about to enter the palace from there. I will send vanguards and inner men to raid this gate. If they fail, they will demolish the beams and pillars of the houses nearby and hit the palace gate, set fire to the fire, and ants attack the wall and forcibly break the door; attack the imperial city at all costs!

I will arrive at Xihuamen, and the Central Army will receive and receive orders from here; after entering the palace, the Central Army will set up outside the Jinxiang Hall."

Guo Shao made another arrangement to check for the missing, asking the generals to confirm their tasks, and after retelling them again, he finally completed the pre-war mobilization. He did not forget to ask the generals to order the soldiers to tie wide strips with their left arm (using whatever color is found) to mark the differences. The armor of each Zhou army was actually slightly different, but the armor and clothes were very similar. This method was slightly prepared for melee... The formation battle was not needed, and the directions of separation between the two sides were different. Most of the time, they were gathered to fight, and the infantry army was easily collapsed after being in chaos.

"The world is here to fight!" Guo Shao shouted, "I hope all the generals will perform their duties and work hard to succeed! If they fail, all the generals in the left wing will be liquidated by the treacherous and treacherous ministers in power, or they will die without a place to bury them, or they will not be able to turn over for a lifetime!"

The generals said in chaos: "I wish to follow the lord's command and fight hard!"

Guo Shao said again in a tone of wishes: "The horse is successful."
