"Marshal! A secret letter was found on the assassin!”Not long after, a guard handed a secret letter to Luo Yi.
Luo Yi proudly glanced at Li Chengqian and coldly snorted,""Just as the Prince of Zhongshan had expected, this assassin really had a secret letter hidden in his arms! It seemed that the Prince of Zhongshan had known about it a long time ago.”
I know nothing!
Li Chengqian cursed in his heart.
He was also very curious about what was written in this secret letter.
Who was it that created such a scene?
These two envoys were clearly not Luo Yi's subordinates.
Then, who sent these two people?
Luo Yi took out the secret letter from the envelope and read it,""Brother Chenghe, Luo Yi's betrayal of the Imperial Court has become a great threat to the Great Tang! Now that Jie Li had formed an alliance with the Emperor, they would soon sign an alliance agreement at the Wei River Bridge! The Imperial Court had decided to confer Li Ke the title of Crown Prince. When the Jie Li army retreated, they would order Li Jing to lead the army to exterminate the traitor Luo Yi! This elder brother can't bear to see you get implicated by Luo Yi, so I specially sent these two people to help you. If you can save the eldest son, it will be a great merit, and this elder brother can guarantee your life of glory and wealth! -- Zhangsun Wuji."
After Luo Yi finished reading, a general suddenly knelt on the ground, his entire body trembling as he shouted,"Marshal, please spare my life! Marshal, please spare me! This subordinate is only old friends with Zhangsun Wuji, this subordinate doesn't know about this matter!”
Seeing Zhao Chenghe kneeling on the ground, the smile on Luo Yi's face grew even wider. He turned his head and smugly glanced at Li Chengqian as he sneered and said,""Your Royal Highness, it seems that you have become Li Shiming's abandoned son. Only your uncle Zhangsun Wuji still remembers you! That means Li Shi Min doesn't want to give us the remaining 90,000 dan of rations! I don't think we need to wait three days. This king will kill you now as a sacrifice! Brothers, what do you think?"
Just as Luo Yi finished speaking, the generals in the tent immediately looked at each other in dismay. There was a wave of righteous anger in the crowd!
"Marshal, I have received reports from the spies in Chang 'an. Li Shimin did send hundreds of carts of money and food to Jie Li's army a few days ago!”A general in charge of gathering intelligence stood up and cupped his hands towards Luo Yi.
"Marshal, the scouts I sent to the Jie Li army have reported that they have indeed stopped attacking!”Another general in charge of scouting also stood up and reported.
"Aiya! What should he do? Li Shi Min was already prepared to make Li Ke the Crown Prince. It seemed that Li Chengqian had already become Li Shi Min's abandoned son!”
"What should we do? When the Jie Li army retreats, Li Shi Min will definitely send an army to besiege our Jing Zhou. At that time, without the Jie Li army to restrain us, and we don't have any rations, how can we resist?”
"I didn't expect Li Shi Min to be so ruthless, abandoning his eldest son!”
"Bastard! Li Shi Min didn't keep his word. He wants us to starve to death! Marshal, we can't wait any longer! Since Li Shiming doesn't want to give us food, we'll rebel and go to Chang 'an Fortress to rob them ourselves!!”
"What a good idea!" Li Chengqian sighed inwardly.
This move was truly vicious to the extreme. Almost everything that was said in this letter was true, except for the most crucial matter of making Li Ke the Crown Prince and abandoning Li Chengqian!
Furthermore, he even used Zhangsun Wuji's name!
Even Li Chengqian himself almost believed it!
The most fatal thing was that the 100,000 dans of grain that he had promised Luo Yi during the negotiations had also been withheld!
Without these rations, the desperate Heavenly Festival Army could really do anything!
It seemed that these two envoys were most likely people sent by Li Ke!
The purpose of these two people was obviously to force Luo Yi and the Heaven Festival Army to rebel again, so as to achieve the goal of killing with a borrowed knife!
"Li Ke, oh Li Ke, in order to kill me, you actually don't care about the safety of the Great Tang and your Imperial Father?”Li Chengqian felt a wave of sorrow in his heart.
He was not sad for himself, but for Li Ke and the others!
If the Great Tang was gone, so what if Li Ke became Crown Prince?
In the end, didn't he become a stray dog?!
"Marshal! We can't just sit there and wait for death! When Jie Li really withdraws his troops and Li Shiming is free, even if we want to resist, I'm afraid we won't be his match! In my opinion, why don't we kill Li Chengqian now and sacrifice the flag? While Li Shimin and Jie Li haven't successfully negotiated peace, we will lead the army to Chang 'an and kill that King of Qin, Li Shimin!”A general stood up with bloodshot eyes and shouted at Li Chengqian with a ferocious expression.
"Li Shi Min went back on his word. He was the one who was unkind first, so don't blame us for being unkind! Marshal! Give the order! Let our brothers go to Chang 'an and take Li Shiming's head!!”
"General Wu is right! Marshal! Why must only the Li family sit on the emperor's throne? We have 80,000 elite soldiers in our hands. As long as we take down Chang 'an, our commander can also sit on the throne of the emperor!”Another burly general stood up and echoed loudly.
"Marshal! Do it! Now, the money and food in the treasury of Chang 'an City have been exhausted, and Li Shimin's troops have suffered heavy losses from Jie Li's army. If our army goes south now, Chang' an City will be within our grasp!”
"Marshal, we only have three to five days of rations left. Staying here is equivalent to waiting for death. I think we might as well fight and maybe have a chance of survival! Commander-in-chief, give the order!"
Luo Yi looked at the few generals who requested to fight below the stage, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
It was not that Luo Yi could not see the strangeness of this matter. How could a person who could dominate a region in a chaotic world be a fool?
But even if he knew that this secret letter was fake, Luo Yi could not resist such temptation!
These generals who requested to fight were right!
Now that Chang 'an City was empty, he could take Chang' an City by surprise with his 50,000 elite Tianjie Army infantry and 30,000 Yan Liao cavalry.
He, Luo Yi, had gone through life and death for so many years, so he was naturally unwilling to be under someone else's hand.
The emperor's throne was right in front of him, and he couldn't help but be envious!
Rather than saying that this letter was a conspiracy, it would be better to say that it was an open conspiracy!
Now, the food in his hands was only enough to last him for four to five days. Even if his subordinates did not want to rebel, they would have no choice but to rebel with him!
