When Tie Longping received an urgent order from Situ Tai to return to Cangzhou as soon as possible, the situation in the imperial capital had become increasingly serious. For unknown reasons, Ma Yuanwang met with Tie Longping again and asked him not to release Yusuf without authorization. He entered the imperial capital and warned him that if he violated the agreement of the day and let Yusuf enter the capital, he would be responsible for all the consequences.
The order from His Highness King Yan did not clearly inform Tie Longping whether Yusuf could be allowed to enter the capital. From the letter sent by His Highness King Yan, Tie Longping could also figure out the somewhat hesitant attitude of His Highness King Yan. Tie Longping considered himself a pure soldier. , he didn’t want to get involved in those political entanglements. His Highness King Yan gave him everything and promoted him from an unknown soldier to the position of commander of the first division. He had nothing to repay but died to thank him. , he also knew that the current situation could no longer be changed by the First Division alone, but he did not want to think about it. He would carry out the orders given by His Highness King Yan, no matter what difficulties and obstacles he faced.
Since His Highness King Yan has not made it clear whether Yusuf can be allowed to enter the capital, Tie Longping does not have too many scruples. Yusuf is not a good bird and he knows it, but in the face of the huge pressure from Xijiang, it is beneficial as long as it can create some trouble for Xijiang. The problem is that the current imperial capital is not controlled by Xijiang, but by Ma Yuan. On the surface, they represent the Imperial Guard at the center of the empire. Tie Longping has always suspected that there is some kind of secret deal or tacit understanding between Ma Yuanhua and Xijiang, but he has no evidence, not to mention that Ma Yuanhua now controls the imperial guards and actually controls the entire situation in the imperial capital. He is also quite popular among the nobles and gentry, and can be called the de facto controller of the entire imperial capital. Even if he has doubts in his heart, he cannot show it.
Letting Yusuf enter the capital can only be said to bring a lot of trouble to Western Xinjiang in the future, but it will not bring much substantial benefit to us now. Will His Highness King Yan use the battle of Cangzhou to seek future retreat? It's hard to say what his physical condition is, so Tie Longping also faces this difficulty in making decisions.
Maybe touching Yusuf's bottom will help you make your own judgment. Tie Longping could only do this, he had to make a decision today. He will have to leave Beijing and return to the north before dawn tomorrow, otherwise the time will be a little tight. Cui Wenxiu of Western Xinjiang has already organized troops at the border of Cangzhou and Peiping, and is about to attack the hinterland of Yanyun. No wonder His Highness the King of Yan is worried in a hurry.
When Yusuf received a letter from Tie Longping inviting him, he knew his chance had finally come. Trapped under the imperial capital city, seeing the prosperity of the imperial capital city but missing him, the entire city guard army was about to become bandits. There is a shortage of food, winter clothes, military pay, and weapons. There is a shortage of everything, even if there is no shortage of soldiers. The officers are all impatient and resentful of the imperial center's betrayal. They don't care about the Imperial Guard and the imperial center. There is a difference between governments. They only know that they attacked Heshuo under the orders of the central government of the empire. Now they have failed. These people actually refused to let in the city gate, and they didn't care about the food and clothing of their own people. So what else does a master like this do
Since they can be unkind, they can also be unjust. Many mid-level and senior officers have more or less shown this emotion in front of Yusuf. This makes Yusuf satisfied but also a little worried. The entire legion is still there. He was firmly under control, but Yusuf was still a little worried about whether he could still firmly control this army that was already like a volcano about to erupt after entering the imperial capital city
Yusuf was even more annoyed that the third legion was following behind him. But he couldn't fall out with the other party before the situation was decided. This bunch of rubbish stuck to him like brown candy and he couldn't get rid of it. But after tonight, maybe these guys could still be of some use.
Yusuf, who was traveling in a simple car, quietly arrived at the Bihai Yuntian Tower. He looked at the broad avenue filled with light and colors, and behind him was the Shanjiang River inland, where the moon was white, the wind was clear, and the waves were lapping the shore. Nothing seemed to have changed, just like it was a few years ago. He has not been to these occasions for a long time. Ever since he left the imperial capital and started fighting, everything has been like a dream, a dream story with ups and downs and twists and turns, but this dream has become a reality.
This is a newly-emerged luxury place on the Fanjiang River section in the imperial capital city. The popularity has surpassed that of other old-name gambling establishments in the imperial capital. The reason is that the authentic Indian style has made many nobles of the imperial capital reluctant to return. The changing situation in the empire has not affected the imperial capital. The pastime and entertainment of these nobles and gentry in the city. In the eyes of many people, whether it is the King of Qin or the King of Yan, they will support whoever comes to dominate the country. Except for those die-hards, many people have paid more attention to the King of Qin Li Wufeng, and their topics have also focused on Once His Highness the King of Qin establishes his Li Dynasty, will the upper class society in the imperial capital city undergo a major purge and change? Maybe many people will be swept away in this big storm, and some People will stay and continue to play important roles on the stage of the imperial capital. Who will these lucky ones be
After thirty years of drinking, the dishes were full of flavors, whether it was Indian-style songs and dances or exotic singing girls, none of them could attract much of Yusuf's attention. He was not here to enjoy the songs and dances and taste the wine and food, although he no longer had Resting in this environment did not affect his judgment. The more he relaxed like this, the more urgent the opponent was. The war in Cangzhou was getting closer. Yusuf was not very well-informed anymore, but he also knew about Western Xinjiang. Cui Wenxiu is already preparing to march eastward to Cangzhou to show off his master's victory. Situ Tai will not be unaware of Cui Wenxiu's ferocity and ability. If he wants to withstand Cui Wenxiu's impact, he will only need an iron dragon. Ping's first division in Cangzhou is somewhat difficult to maintain no matter how strong it is.
Tie Longping must have received a call from Situ Tai and had to prepare to leave the imperial capital and return north, so he came to invite him for a meeting in such a hurry. It seems that the decision will be made tonight. Yusuf is looking forward to it. As long as Tie Longping gives up. At the north gate, you can march in with troops. Ma Yuanwen's Imperial Guard Yusuf didn't take it to heart. The army was polished with bloody winds, not through training. The Imperial Guards had not fought in many years, regardless of their history. How glorious and glorious, no matter how hard their training is, no matter how high their morale is, not having been on the battlefield is their fatal weakness. Once such an army encounters a group like his own who have been ruthlessly abandoned by the central government of the empire, it will suffer. As a squealing guy, Yusuf could confidently boast that although his legion was not fully organized, he could still defeat the Imperial Guards as long as they dared to block his actions.
The room looked very quiet under the bright candles. Two cups of thick black tea were placed in front of the two of them. Their feet were soaked in the warm wooden barrel. They felt indescribably relaxed and comfortable. Yusuf found that he was becoming more and more out of date. In the Imperial Capital When did this kind of health-care foot massage become popular in the city? Yusuf had never liked these imported products, but tonight it seemed that he needed to have a heart-to-heart talk in such a relaxed atmosphere.
The majestic man opposite him still looked a little careless, but in Yusuf's eyes, the restlessness deep in his heart was already obvious under this calm appearance. He was a little funny. Isn't it superfluous to perform this in front of him? There was absolutely no need for that, but Yusuf still had to pretend to be ignorant and laugh with the other party. After all, the initiative was still in the other party's hands.
This guy is indeed a good fighter. He has never been at a disadvantage in many battles against the Puer people. The tenacious and brave style of the First Division has been fully demonstrated in the hands of this guy. Even Yusuf has to admit this. If someone could even beat him in a tactical competition, it's a pity that this guy's only shortcoming is his stupidity and loyalty, and this shortcoming is enough to ruin him for the rest of his life.
"Master Yusuf, last time you wanted to enter the Imperial City, but Master Ma Yuanxiang did not agree. I will not hide it from you. I have received an order from His Highness King Yan to lead the first division to leave the Imperial City. The north gate of the Imperial City is to be defended. His Highness did not clearly ask me to hand it over to whom in the letter. I would like to know, Mr. Yusuf, what are you going to do if you lead your city guards into the imperial capital? I mean we all know the current situation. Li Wufeng's army will soon It will approach the imperial capital, how do you plan to deal with it?" Tie Longping had no intention of going around.
"Master Tie, you seem to have forgotten something. Everything in the Imperial City should be decided by the Emperor. At the very least, Master Ma Yuanxiang should make the decision. I, hey, I'll do whatever they want to do. , just do whatever you want." At this time, Yusuf was not in a hurry. The topic had been raised, so it would be much more natural.
Frowning slightly, a trace of displeasure flashed across Tie Longping's face. This guy is still playing Tai Chi Push Hands for himself at this time. "Master Yusuf, I don't think we need to play these tricks between us, right?" I want to know how you plan to deal with the coming Li Wufeng when you enter the city? Will you rely on the imperial capital to fight to the death, go with the flow, or simply surrender?"
"Master Tie, you are an honest man. I don't want to play tricks with you. In a word, whatever your Highness Prince Yan's idea is, that's what I think too. Isn't it because I hope to frustrate Li Wufeng's spirit in Cangzhou so that we can talk more easily? Do you want to negotiate terms? It's very simple. The same goes for me. If I control the Imperial City, I can negotiate terms with Li Wufeng, but my requirements are very low, hehe." Yusuf blew a sip of foam from the black tea in a frivolous manner.
