Turbulent Times Chapter 723: Gao Ying’s intuition
I didn't expect to be defeated so quickly, Gao Ying was filled with remorse and annoyance. Of course he knew that his shortcoming was that he didn't have enough control over the army, so he wanted to use external force. Wang Junlin's dog thief ruined a good thing.
Thinking about it now, in the past three years, every time his good deeds have been destroyed by Wang Junlin, thinking of this, Gao Ying hated Wang Junlin to death, wishing to cut him into pieces in order to get rid of the hatred in his heart .
Honestly speaking, if time turns back and Gao Ying thinks twice, I am afraid that Wang Junlin will turn him upside down with a thousand people in Bingzhou. He really can't believe that tens of thousands of troops and Tens of thousands of people from the Rilian Department chased Wang Junlin at the same time, but they couldn't kill Wang Junlin and his party. So far, they don't know where the other party is hiding. From a logical point of view, this kind of thing is really incredible. In fact, only Wang Junlin knew that without Nie Xiaoyu's precise calculations and mobilization of troops to pass through the gaps in the besieging army time and time again, they would have been besieged and killed by the opponent long ago.
Just taking control of Bingzhou, the result is about to lose. One can imagine how bad Gao Ying's mood is at the moment, and she has the heart to eat Wang Junlin alive.
After resting for half the night, the sky was bright, Gao Ying ordered the whole army to march towards Taiyuan City, and must arrive at Pyongyang City before dark today.
At the same time, Gao Ying has sent people to rush to Taiyuan City in advance, and sent an order to the guard Dong Qingyun to seize the time to prepare for the long-term defense of Taiyuan City, and ordered to strengthen the walls and clear the fields within a hundred miles of Taiyuan City .
…
…
"Young master, Wang Long sent people over, saying that all the people sent by Gao Ying have been caught, and sent people to send them over." Still in the courtyard of the Wu family, Shan Xiongxin came in and confronted Wang Junlin. Report in a low voice.
Wang Junlin was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said: "Send the people sent by Wang Long directly to Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu knows how to do it."
Shan Xiongxin agreed, clasped his fists in salute, turned and left.
…
…
The tens of thousands of troops marched in a hurry. After noon, the confidants who had been dispatched in advance rushed back, but after seeing Gao Ying, their lips were murmured, and they dared not speak for a long time.
Gao Ying didn't say a word, picked up a whip and slapped him on the face, and his confidants told him that there was a change in Taiyuan City. Officials, at the banquet, let Duwei Wang Jinbao ambush the soldiers, killed Dong Qingyun, Yu Chengjie and other generals, and then all the officials loyal to Gao Ying and high-ranking households were destroyed. Almost all of his confidantes who stayed in Taiyuan City Yang Hao took Wang Jinbao out and killed them, and also killed the family members of these courtiers.
Gao Ying's complexion suddenly turned livid, his eyes were open with anger, his heart was full of murderous intent towards Yang Hao, and his teeth were gritted.
This puppet king of Han, who was supported by himself, obviously underestimated him before, and there is even a general in the army like Wang Jinbao.
No, Yang Hao and Wang Jinbao alone can't do such a big thing, he hurriedly asked: "Is the Wang family involved in this matter?"
The confidant quickly said: "My subordinates have inquired specifically. The Wang family did not participate on the surface, but Yang Hao did not touch anyone in the Wang family. I guess the Wang family secretly acquiesced to Yang Hao's actions."
When Gao Ying heard this, he let out a long breath. He was very clear about the principles of a powerful family like the Wang family. Yang Liang was a rebel, and Yang Hao was the son of Yang Liang. It is possible for the family to fall to the court at any time, but if they surrendered to the court together with Yang Hao, it is absolutely impossible. And he thought of the deeper meaning of Wang's acquiescence to Yang Hao's actions—whether Wang is unwilling to be lonely, and wants to use Yang Hao as a puppet, so as to get his hands on the world.
"Is there any other important news in Taiyuan City, especially about the Wang family." These thoughts flashed in his mind, and Gao Ying continued to ask.
"There are rumors in the city that Wang Long, the patriarch of the Wang family, is critically ill, and now the second master of the Wang family, Wang Xiong, has the final say." It was time to say it.
It turned out that it was Wang Xiong who controlled the Wang family. No wonder there was a change in Taiyuan City. If Wang Long had the temperament, he would never do this. But Wang Xiong is ambitious, and it makes sense if he has the mind to compete for the world. In this way, things in Taiyuan City will take a turn for the better, the big deal is to share the state with the Wang family. And this will also get the full support of the Wang family. It is not impossible to defend Taiyuan and even counterattack Yang Su. As for how to divide the cake with the Wang family after driving the imperial army out of Bingzhou, we can only take one step at a time.
These thoughts suddenly appeared in Gao Ying's mind, and Gao Ying couldn't help but said: "I still had a headache just now, how did I drag the Wang family into the water, I didn't expect the Wang family to take the initiative to participate, God helped me."
…
…
After the night was over, Gao Ying led an army of 70,000 troops to the outside of Taiyuan City. Wang Long sent a member of the Wang family who was originally loyal to Wang Xiong to meet Gao Ying secretly with the so-called meaning of Wang Xiong. In Gao Ying's view, his previous conjecture was immediately confirmed, and he ordered: "Select five thousand elites to follow me into the city, and the others will camp outside the city to rest and wait for orders."
All the generals took the order awe-inspiringly.
A general saluted and said: "Gao Gong, after you enter the city, do you go back to the mansion first or go to the Hanwang Mansion?"
Gao Ying sneered and said, "Go straight to Wang's house."
Five thousand elites surrounded Gao Ying, and walked slowly into the city with neat steps. Several elders from the Wang family at the gate greeted him here. He entered the city with a smile on his face, and his five thousand guards followed him all the time.
When he reached the city gate and stood with both feet inside the city gate, Gao Ying suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart. This feeling was very strange, and it came so suddenly and strangely. Anyway, this kind of feeling is not good, there is a premonition of impending disaster.
The thinking of great people is different from that of ordinary people. Their intuition is usually very accurate, and the rise of an unusual thought often means that some unpredictable changes have occurred. If they were more superstitious, they would take an abnormal wind, an inexplicable rain, or a sudden thunderstorm as warnings from the heavens.
The difference is that some great people are self-willed, have a faint intuition but feel that they can reverse their destiny, so they ignore their intuition. Of course, the endings of countless history books or folk stories have proved that if you don't believe your intuition, you will die. It's ugly.
Gao Ying is not a self-willed person, he has always been cautious, and because of his caution, he is still alive, so he became alert to his inexplicable palpitations just now, so he stopped.
