Chapter 882 Old Shen, you don’t know the art of war
Night falls.
The Shule defenders at the head of the city looked at each other after watching the last sunset...
In the city, all the people were preparing dinner at home.
In the Governor's Mansion, Wang Chunyang discussed with a group of generals and officials.
Hulanqi sat indoors drinking.
Cup after cup.
Changhala came in and said excitedly, "It's about to start."
"I know."
Hu Lanqi raised his head, his eyes were burning, "The Tang Dynasty is too powerful, if we submit to them, we will have no chance to turn around. The Tubo people said that if we succeed, we will be the first to succeed, and the future Shule Kingdom will be established A group similar to the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, we will enter."
"We will definitely enter." Changhala sat down, poured himself a drink, and then said calmly: "Back then, I saw only a few hundred Tang troops and dared to charge and kill more than a thousand people, and won the battle. Since From then on, I knew that all this must be changed, otherwise our descendants will become the people of Datang..."
He looked at Hu Lanqi, and said seriously: "What the Tang Dynasty needs is a dog, a loyal dog. Otherwise, high officials and rich salary will not be our turn. Why should we be dogs? We should be humans!"
Chanhala toast.
Hu Lanqi raised his glass.
Boom!
The wine glass was lightly touched, the wine in the glass was shaken, and some splashed out...
…
Cao Yingxiong was also quite embarrassed after being woken up. He felt that his cowardice had fallen into the eyes of everyone, and he felt that everyone was looking at him with ridicule.
"Brother, is there anything else? My little brother will do it."
Cao Yingxiong is annoyed.
Cao Yingxiong performed well this way, and this time is also okay.
"I need an acquaintance to inform the cavalry and the thousand soldiers to gather here."
Cao Yingxiong patted his chest, "Go, little brother."
"Go."
Cao Yingxiong set off with more than ten people.
Bao Dong said: "He... is a bit timid."
"Everyone will change, he needs a baptism of blood and fire." At this time, Jia Pingan will not have the benevolence of a woman.
Cao Yingxiong rode his horse and galloped through the city.
In the darkness, the sergeant in front shouted: "There are archers!"
Cao Yingxiong was shocked, and hurriedly fell on his horse.
Arrows flew in, a sergeant fell off his horse, and the rest of the horse neighed. Cao Yingxiong hurriedly dismounted and hid beside the horse.
"Enemy attack!"
Hundreds of Shule people rushed over.
Just a face-to-face meeting, and more than ten Tang troops rushed in. They rushed forward with all their strength, and even stopped the enemy's momentum for a while.
A sergeant turned around and shouted, "Go!"
Cao Yingxiong knew what he meant, and this was to tell him to report the news immediately.
He got on his horse and rushed.
But Caijiang rushed halfway, and the arrow fell down from the horse. Fortunately, the speed was not fast, but Cao Yingxiong was still thrown into a daze.
His head was buzzing, he felt a sharp pain in his back, and it was difficult to breathe.
He was panting hard.
More than a dozen Shule people rushed forward with grinning grinning.
"ah!"
Cao Yingxiong shouted with all his strength, but there was no helper, and the soldiers were rushing in formation, unable to take care of themselves.
Cao Yingxiong got up, raised his knife and slashed.
His sword skills...actually he practiced with the prince. The master is very powerful, even stronger than Shao Peng, but Cao Yingxiong is a little sneaky and tricky.
Master said back then: If you don’t practice hard now, you will suffer retribution when you fight. Of course, you are noble people, there is no need to be so.
Back then, Cao Yingxiong was self-confident, but today he was hacked and had no power to fight back.
"ah!"
He yelled to embolden himself, and hacked wildly.
"Kneel and surrender!"
A Shule native shouted in unfamiliar Tang dialect.
Cao Yingxiong is Jia Pingan's close friend, and capturing him alive is a great achievement.
Cao Yingxiong panted, and said with a smile: "Surrender... easy to say."
The man was ecstatic.
Cao Yingxiong staggered past, suddenly raised his knife and slashed. The Shule man in front of him was caught off guard by the knife and fell down immediately.
Cao Yingxiong smiled and said: "Give your mother to Yeye to sleep, and Yeye...will not surrender!"
His eyes were red, and instead of retreating, he rushed in with a horizontal knife.
"There is no Tang man who surrendered!"
Amidst the shouts, Cao Yingxiong's horizontal knife became faster and faster.
He abandoned his fear and timidity. At this moment, there was only one word in his mind.
"kill!"
Blood shot out, and Cao Yingxiong was all over his face.
But he is not an opponent after all.
After being stabbed in the arm, Cao Yingxiong knew that he was going to die.
A ray of light appeared from the opposite side.
Cao Yingxiong took a look while he was busy parrying.
A burly and outrageous man appeared cheerfully with a Mo Dao in his hand.
"Mr. Li!"
Cao Yingxiong screamed.
I'm dying!
Li Jingye rushed over with dozens of soldiers...
Sweep!
He's like a chariot, he just pushes sideways.
…
Boom!
The door was hit violently.
Jia Pingan got up slowly.
Several people came up from the top of the wall, Bao Dong and Lei Hong rushed over, hacking and killing them as soon as they fell down.
Boom!
The banging sound at the gate was like a ghost knocking on the door.
The woman screamed, "They are coming! Run!"
She hugged Jia Ping'an's thigh, "Take me away! Please, Mr. Jia, take me away. I will serve you as a slave."
Jia Pingan looked down at her, and said with a smirk, "Tell me, who is that person behind?"
It turns out that he knew my reason for coming from the very beginning...
"Han Zong kindly got a beautiful woman to serve me, but it was such a coincidence that this beautiful woman went to prison by coincidence, instead of being made a slave to some powerful person. Then by coincidence, Han Cong thought Appearing in his line of sight when looking for a beauty who can serve others... What do you need to do for this? How many connections and power do you need?"
Jia Pingan reached out and lifted the woman's face, and said with a sneer, "But the first thing those people do when they come in is to kill you to silence you. Even if the Tang Dynasty can rule Shule again, no one will know what happened here!"
"explain!"
Jia Ping'an slapped it away.
Snapped!
The woman covered her face and shouted: "It's Hulanqi and Changhala. They threatened me, saying that my husband's rebellion is a death penalty, and so is my slave... They said they just wanted to know what the Duke Jia likes, so they can go please you...
I swear, I only occasionally felt hatred for you when I thought of my dead husband, and wanted to kill you...but then I no longer had this idea..."
"It really is them."
That banquet left a deep impression on Jia Pingan, and the combination of the herbs in the dish will make the man feel impetuous and blood rush.
Once the valve of desire is opened, a man will care about assassination...
Jia Ping'an kicked the woman away and turned around...
Boom!
The door was knocked open.
More than a hundred people swarmed in outside.
The leader pointed at Jia Ping'an and shouted, "He's here!"
Everyone was ecstatic, and rushed over with a shout.
The woman sat paralyzed on the ground, seeing that Jia Pingan didn't run away, but went up to meet him, and couldn't help cursing: "You are an idiot!"
In the past few days, she has been able to see Jia Pingan practicing sword skills every morning. She compared Jia Ping's sword skills with her dead husband's knife skills, and came to a conclusion that this demon is good at military skills, not Fighting, the sword skills are in a mess... If you meet her dead husband, you will definitely not be able to survive three swords.
The light of the knife flashed.
Blood was still flying in the air, the astonished face of the rebels quickly turned into panic and despair, and then fell heavily to the ground.
Jia Pingan holds a knife in both hands, and turns his body...
The knife light kept flashing.
The blood is extraordinarily strange under the light of the torch...
The woman is dumbfounded...
His knife skills...
Those seemingly simple sword techniques are easily harvesting the lives of the enemies at this moment.
"you liar!"
The woman screamed in despair.
"Kill him, reward!"
Someone screamed frantically from behind.
Jia Pingan was surrounded in the middle, the woman clutched her chest nervously, and murmured: "Come out alive! Come out alive...they will ravage me when you die. Duke Jia, I beg you...come out alive, Take me away!"
She only saw the light of the knife flickering, and those screams kept coming from the middle.
Outside, the leader said angrily: "Can't so many people kill him? A bunch of idiots!"
Xu Xiaoyu is on the other side, and Jia Pingan is in the middle. Bao Dong and Lei Hong rushed towards Jia Ping'an from the side.
A big man stepped forward, "I'll go!"
This is a Tubo man. His purpose of this trip was to observe and supervise the actions of the Shule people. Seeing that the Shule people were being killed without any power to fight back, he couldn't help shaking his head contemptuously.
The leader knew what he meant, and couldn't help but look livid, and explained: "It's not that I can't wait hard, but Jia Pingan's knife makes people unable to get close."
The big man glanced at him with contempt in his eyes, "It's so good to watch!"
He walked slowly, his pace getting faster and faster...
Clang!
He stared at Jia Pingan with both eyes, drew the knife casually, and charged forward with the knife in both hands...
"Jia Pingan!"
Jia Pingan had just beheaded the enemy in front of him, when he suddenly raised his head, he saw a big man rushing towards him with a knife in both hands, and he was facing him with a knife.
Hoo!
This knife passed by the wind!
The leader saw it behind and couldn't help but praised: "This knife is so wonderful!"
Those Shule people couldn't help cheering, "Kill him!"
The woman covered her mouth, her eyes widened.
Jia Ping'an's body moved easily, like a fast movement in Sanda, with his left foot moving to the left, and his right foot quickly following...
Parallel!
The long knife fell from his side.
The leader was stunned.
Those Shule people were stunned...
This knife was like thunder, but Jia Pingan avoided it.
The light of the knife flashed.
The big man stood still.
Suddenly his abdomen opened a little bit, and then the opening was even bigger... The colorful viscera slowly squeezed out...
"ah…"
He screamed and knelt on the ground, trying to pick up the internal organs with both hands and stuff them back again.
But the more he scooped out the guts, the more he lost.
Boom!
He fell down in front of Jia Pingan.
The woman was ecstatic, covered her mouth and shouted: "Mr. Jia is mighty!"
Those Shule people reacted now.
Jia Pingan squinted at the leader.
Boom!
There was a knock on the door from the side.
The woman looked sideways in horror.
A man rushed in through the side door.
The man had a handsome face. He glanced ahead, and stretched out his hand to touch the blown-up sideburn hair.
"kill!"
His feet were as fast as a ghost, rushing past the woman.
This person won't kill me?
The woman's heart was beating like thunder.
But he didn't even look at me.
Why is this?
Conceited about her beauty, she was ignored by two people.
She was lying naked on the bed, and Jia Pingan ignored her.
This indifferent and handsome man also ignored her.
Following the side door, a group of big men rushed in.
"Here we come!"
Jia Pingan heard this voice and said without looking back: "You are late."
"yes!"
The horizontal knife pointed forward, but Jia Ping'an was retreating.
Bao Dong and Lei Hong rushed over and protected his sides. Xu Xiaoyu protected his back.
The four of them retreated slowly.
Like a gust of wind, Shen Qiu killed him.
Dozens of hundreds of riders followed him and killed him.
"They have an ambush!"
The leader said in despair: "I said that Jia Ping'an couldn't stay here with only three people. This is a trap!"
From the ecstasy and contempt when he found out that there were only four people in Jia Pingan at the beginning, to the despair now, the leader knows what a famous general is...
Jia Pingan retreated to the back, knelt behind the table, looked at the woman and said, "Go and make tea."
The woman was stunned, and got up in a hurry, but her mind was agitated and worried, and her body was so frightened that she couldn't get up after pressing her thigh several times.
Jia Pingan frowned and looked at her, "You are so useless..."
He's going to kill me...
The woman got strength out of nowhere, jumped up from the ground, and went to make tea.
After the tea was served, she realized that her lower abdomen was swollen and painful.
"Slave... slave to undress."
Jia Pingan took a sip of tea, and spit it out when he heard the words. He wiped the corner of his mouth, "At this point, you are still thinking about undressing..."
This woman is so weird to the extreme.
The woman was so ashamed and indignant that she wanted to die, "Slave... I want to change my clothes."
In front, Shen Qiu led a hundred cavalry to strangle them. Those Shule people were defeated and ran away with a shout.
But what they encountered was Baiqi.
More than ten hundred riders appeared from both sides of the long street.
With the crossbow in hand, a burst of crossbow arrows shot and killed many fleeing Shule people, and then drew his sword...
"I am willing to surrender!"
A Shule man dropped his sword and knelt down.
This matter was contagious, and there was a burst of begging for mercy outside.
Jia Pingan shook his head, and Bao Dong shouted: "Mr. Jia said... kill them all."
The begging for mercy outside immediately dissipated, and only the sound of chopping meat could be heard.
The woman looked at Jia Pingan with horror...
This man is so bloodthirsty.
I narrowly escaped death.
Shen Qiu came in, his body was stained with a lot of blood, and he frowned displeased.
"Why not keep alive?"
Jia Pingan shook his head, "The situation is chaotic at the moment. These are deep-rooted rebels. We have to separate our people to watch them. How do you feel?"
Shen Qiu sat down and sighed.
"King Shule was killed by a servant. At that time, the people around him were terrified. They were caught off guard and let the servant succeed. Then the servant ran out, was tripped by someone, and hacked to death."
"Stumbled close, that is to say, the attendant who assassinated King Shule must have believed in this person. According to the original arrangement, this person would cover him to escape, but he did not expect to be stabbed in the back."
This thing is getting more and more interesting.
Shen Qiu looked at his blood-stained hands with a frown, and slowly poured tea into them to scrub, "At least 30% of the rich and powerful in the city are unstable."
"It's better to be unstable."
Jia Pingan took a sip of tea.
"If they are unstable, then we will find them all."
Shule is a leading party this time, and Jia Pingan's trip is to clean up these leading parties.
"Call the immigrants together."
The immigrants have not yet arrived, but the cavalry and the thousand sergeants have arrived.
"Hu Mi is here."
Shen Qiu said quietly: "There are thousands of Tubo people outside, and the Shule people in the city are hard to tell who are loyal and traitorous, but you let Han Zong lead most of the soldiers out of the city to look for Tubo people... You are taking risks."
Hu Mi came to salute.
"You take five hundred people to the city gate..." Jia Pingan mused, "Shule people are unreliable, so be careful."
Hu Mi responded.
Jia Ping'an added: "The most important thing is to guard the city gate, if the enemy rushes to me..."
Hu Mi raised his head, "That must be the lower official died in battle."
"good!"
Hu Mi took people there.
"Professional."
Li Jingye fought a lot before, but he didn't feel it was enough.
"Brother."
Jia Ping'an ordered: "You lead five hundred people to stand by at the crossroads, Hu Mi guards the city gate, and you... have to adapt to the situation, but don't be confused."
"yes."
Li Jingye grinned.
Shule is a resting place for many Hu merchants, and it is also a trading market for some merchants. In the past few days, Li Jingye had found Hu Nu from nowhere, and suddenly his **** flew up.
Jia Pingan was worried about him, frowned and said: "If you make a mistake, from today until you reach Chang'an City, you can follow me."
The so-called staying by your side means not being able to shake your ass.
This punishment is more effective than a beating.
Li Jingye cursed and swore, and set off immediately.
"You only left yourself three hundred cavalry!"
Shen Qiu said indifferently: "Although we have never joined the army, we also know that the more troops we hold in our hands, the more calm we will be. Three hundred cavalry can only be used for assault, but once you attack, you will have no confidence..."
"Old Shen, you don't know the art of war."
Jia Pingan said lightly.
Shen Qiu's face turned slightly green, "We don't know the art of war, so what's the point of asking His Majesty to let us follow before you leave?"
"I am in the light, you are in the dark." Jia Pingan looked at him, "This is also the art of war, old Shen, do you understand?"
Bao Dong and Lei Hong were holding back their laughter.
Shen Qiu was proud, but he was beaten repeatedly in front of Jia Ping'an.
"Of course I don't understand." Shen Qiu sneered, "But they dare to make a move tonight, it must be more than these people..."
"Soldiers come to block!"
…
The two long streets in the city are in the shape of a cross, each leading to the city gate. The three city gates are backed by mountains, and the defense is simple. Only the east gate is the passage to the outside world.
Hu Mi trotted all the way with five hundred people.
When they reached the gate of the city, the more than 300 Shule people at the top of the city were stunned, and the general asked, "Why increase the troops?"
Because you can't be trusted!
Hu Mi said in a deep voice: "You wait."
The general's eyes flickered.
"Come down!"
Hu Mi felt cold.
Outside the city, thousands of people were gathering in front of the city gate.
The general shouted: "Go down, all go down."
Hu Mi felt relieved, watching the Shule people walk down the wall.
More than a dozen soldiers quietly hid in the city gate.
Suddenly there was a long hiss of war horse outside the city, and it disappeared immediately.
Hu Mi's complexion changed drastically, and he shouted, "Archer..."
Shua!
The sergeants behind them raised their bows and set their arrows.
"Squeak..."
The city gate was opened with a gap.
"Shoot the arrow!"
The arrow flew into the entrance of the city gate.
More than a dozen Shule people who were desperately opening the door were shot and fell down.
But an even greater force pushed open the city gate from the outside.
A grinning cavalryman appeared in Hu Mi's sight...
"It's from Tubo!"
The gates of the city are wide open.
As far as I can see... dense cavalry are impatiently rushing towards the city...
"Enemy attack!"
