Beibei roams the magical starry world

The news that Princess Isa's army had besieged Desheng Pass quickly spread throughout the capital.

At this time, the army led by Princess Isa was only more than 100 kilometers away from the capital.

The people of the capital spread the news, and the officials were worried.

In the court, Zhang Meng spoke eloquently and asked to lead troops to quell the rebellion. "I have said it long ago. If we had sent troops directly to suppress it, the enemy would not have increased from more than 200,000 troops to more than 600,000 troops now. Now our troops in the capital add up to only 400,000. Prime Minister, I suggest that you quickly issue a call for the king to come to the rescue."

"At the same time, I will lead an army of 300,000 to Desheng Pass to resist the rebels. When the troops to support the king arrive, we will work together inside and outside to eliminate the rebels in one fell swoop." Zhang Meng continued to encourage everyone to agree to let him control the military power.

"Master Prime Minister, I suggest that we wait until Master Wang and Master Li report back on their meeting with Princess Isa before making a decision." A civil servant stepped forward and said

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

Several civil servants also stepped forward to support waiting for news from the talks before making a decision.

Afterwards, several people accused and cursed each other and almost started a fight in the hall, which made the Prime Minister Sun Guolao so angry that he almost died.

Prime Minister Sun Guolao stopped them loudly, "Everyone, be quiet. We will think of a solution after Lord Wang and Lord Li report back on the meeting. Now everyone, disperse!"

"How pedantic! How pedantic!" Zhang Meng stamped his feet excitedly.

Just as everyone in the court was about to leave, a guard from the Imperial Guard came forward to report: "Report! My Lords, Lord Wang and Lord Li have returned to the capital."

"Where is the person?" Prime Minister Sun Guolao asked hurriedly

"The two adults are already outside the door and will arrive at the palace soon." The imperial guard replied.

"Okay, got it, you can go down now!" said Prime Minister Sun Guolao

"Yes!" The Royal Guards bowed and left the meeting hall.

Half an hour later, Lord Wang and Lord Li hurried to the meeting hall. Seeing that all the ministers and colleagues were there, they hurriedly saluted with their fists, and everyone saluted in return.

Prime Minister Sun Guolao waited until Lord Wang and Lord Li calmed down before asking, "How is your negotiation with Princess Isa?"

Lord Li shook his head. Lord Wang thought about his wording and began to describe in detail the conversation with Princess Isa on the battlefield.

After hearing that their request was flatly rejected by Princess Isa, Prime Minister Sun Guolao frowned.

An hour later, Lord Wang and Lord Li recounted their experiences in detail, and Prime Minister Sun Guolao sighed.

Zhang Meng suddenly said, "Master Prime Minister, please give me some troops and I will go to Desheng Pass."

"What do you think?" asked Prime Minister Sun Guolao after looking around.

All the ministers lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Since no one wants to speak, we have decided to have Zhang Meng lead an army of 300,000 to help defend Desheng Pass." Prime Minister Sun Guolao made up his mind.

That evening, an army of 300,000 men, led by Zhang Meng, left the capital in a mighty force.

At the same time, 50,000 personal guards led by Gongsun Sheng had been lurking in the capital.

On this day, Gongsun Sheng received intelligence from spies that out of the 400,000 troops stationed in the capital, 300,000 were selected and led by Zhang Meng to Desheng Pass.

After receiving this information, Gongsun Sheng quickly assembled the 50,000 king's guards scattered in various valleys.

At midnight, the King's Guards led by Gongsun Sheng arrived outside the gate of the capital. A soldier shouted to the gate guards: "Open the gate quickly, the King's Guards want to enter the city."

The soldiers guarding the city gate were a little confused when they heard the king's personal guards suddenly appear under the city. After a moment, they asked, "Didn't you follow General Zhang Meng to quell the rebellion this morning? Why are you back again?"

"What a mess! We are just following military orders." The sergeant of the King's Guards shouted loudly, and at the same time he took out a golden token and waved it at the soldiers on the city wall.

The soldiers on the wall did not dare to delay when they saw the gold medal, and shouted: "General, wait a moment, I will report to the general guarding the city."

After saying that, the soldier guarding the city turned around and went to report. Not long after, a general in full armor came to the city wall. Seeing the 50,000 soldiers outside the city, he became a little nervous.

"Excuse me, which general wants to enter the city?" the general on the wall asked loudly.

"It's me, I'm entering the city on official business under military orders." He then waved the token in his hand.

"General, it's already midnight and the city gates have long been closed. If only a few of you were allowed to enter the capital, I could still make the decision, but you seem to have tens of thousands of troops, so I can't make the decision either! How about you come back tomorrow morning?" The general on the city wall said politely.

"No, we must enter the city now. If you disobey the military order, can you bear the consequences?" The general of the king's personal guards who was in charge of the city said in a bad tone with some impatience.

Just as the general guarding the city was hesitant and silent, the sergeant next to him said, "General, from their armor and tokens, we can confirm that they are the king's personal guards. It seems that they are on urgent military business, so why don't you let them pass!"

"But the city is empty now. What if..." The general was halfway through his words when he heard the soldier next to him say, "What if something happens? It has nothing to do with us. The other party has the king's token."

The general guarding the city took another look at the golden token in the hands of the general at the bottom of the city wall, sighed, and said, "Open the city gate and let them in."

"Creaky!" Two huge, thick city doors were pushed open.

Teams of the king's personal guards poured into the capital, followed closely by their leader Gongsun Sheng.

After entering the capital, 50,000 of the king's personal guards began to act separately. Among them, 10,000 of the king's personal guards, led by Gongsun Sheng, came to the city wall.

When the city garrison general and a group of guards came to greet them, they heard Gongsun Sheng say, "Capture them all and confiscate their weapons."

This sudden change happened, and before the guards could react, sabers were already pressed against everyone's neck.

Half an hour later, the 50,000 royal city garrison troops responsible for the defense of the capital were all captured by the 50,000 royal guards led by Gongsun Sheng and controlled in the military camp.

Gongsun Sheng left behind 10,000 soldiers to guard the gates of the capital and the disarmed royal garrison, and personally led the remaining 40,000 royal guards to the royal palace.
