Chapter Seventy-Four: The Guards Are Lustful

It seems that God is also celebrating for them, after crossing the Yellow River in the south, the heavy snow that has been blowing all over the sky has stopped, revealing a rare sunny day, just because of the smoke and dust of the mountain fire, the blue sky still looks gray, just like there is haze in this era.

Compared with the simple enthusiasm of the Fengling guards, the Tongguan guards are more indifferent and proud.

After seeing tens of thousands of ragged people going straight to Tongguan, he actually ordered to send cavalry to expel them. After learning that the ranks were mixed with the Tang troops who had withdrawn from Shaanxi County, his complexion not only did not improve, but became even more ugly.

"It turned out to be a rout and a deserter from Shaanxi County, all waiting in place, without an order, you can't take a step forward, otherwise you will be killed!"

The leader was a cavalry brigade leader, who looked down on these tattered Tang army robes, and even had undisguised contempt in his eyes.

Another point is that Qin Jin knew that he was no longer the history of the magistrate of Hongnong County, so he did not allow the generals to arbitrarily call him the chief of Hongnong, let alone arbitrarily declare it to the outside world as the history of the magistrate of Hongnong County. But he also didn't want to recognize the subordinate officials of Narong Wangfu, so he only allowed the generals to announce to the outside world that everyone was from Shaanxi County, and there were 30,000 people who followed him and left and right, all of whom were people from several counties in Henan Prefecture.

Tian Jianye, the general of Tongguan, heard that forty or fifty thousand fugitive refugees had come from the direction of Fengling Pass, and he couldn't help but have a big headache. Now that the trench has been dug, there is no need for labor, and so many people have come, and people eat what the horses chew, how much food will be wasted in a day.

"General, I see that there are at least more than a thousand war horses among those escapees, all of them are good horses from Mobei!"

Hearing this, Tian Jianye's eyes suddenly lit up, a thousand war horses is not a small number, if you can get these war horses from the hands of the fugitives, wouldn't it be a windfall?

After thinking about it for a while, Tian Jianye asked the brigade to come over and explain it one by one.

Half an hour later, the brigade returned to the place where Qin Jin and the others stopped, looking up and down at these beggar-like fugitive refugees.

"General Tian said, Tongguan is no better than other places, and there are no idlers, and anyone who has horses can go with me, take care of food and housing, and may be incorporated into the cavalry ......in the future."

In Tian Jianye and his plan, these beggar-like fugitives must have eaten the last meal but not the next, and I heard that they could manage food and housing, and they had to break their heads and rush over. Unexpectedly, the other party's thousands of pairs of eyes shot an angry gaze, and the audience was silent, but it seemed that a bigger explosion was brewing.

If the eyes could kill people, this brigade rate would have died a thousand times ten thousand times.

"We are desperately killing the enemy in Shaanxi County, what kind of dog is your General Tian, you can't even smell the fart of the dog when you nest behind, and you dare to say that you don't raise idlers?"

The brigade rate was a little panicked, and it was the first time in the face of such an imposing escape. In his mind, the fugitives were a rabble, no different from refugees, like hungry wild dogs, whose eyes lit up when they heard what they were eating. However, the previous experience did not work, and General Tian's strategy of differentiation did not work, but it aroused the indignation of these people.

"Stand back, stand back!

In order to deter these fugitive refugees, Yi Binzi slapped the nearest fugitive to him.

Crisp and loud, under the slight provocation of the whip, the paper-paste winter coat was torn inch by inch, and the crumbs of skin and flesh were also rolled out.

Another scream resounded through the sky.

The anger of the group finally broke out uncontrollably and erupted at once.

"Beat him, beat him!"

Realizing that the bad rate was too late to escape, he was almost instantly caught in a sea of anger.

They dragged him off his horse, ripped off his helmet, torn off his armor, ripped off his boots, and even ripped off his tunic and calf-nosed pants.

The brigade has always regarded the fugitive refugees as lambs, beating and scolding at every turn, how could he ever be like a sheep into the wolves. At last he lowered his proud head and began to cry and beg for mercy, so that these people could give him some dignity.

But where are the angry people willing to listen to his pleas, and in a moment they will pick him naked, and then surround it in the middle, and you will punch and kick me and tease it like a cat playing with a mouse.

The rest of the cavalry saw that the situation was not good, took advantage of the situation and slipped away, crying and looking for the main general Tian Jianye to sue for help.

"What's the mess? Chen Lulu was arrested by them?"

Tian Jianye is not a fool, if more than 40,000 people are in chaos together, it will be a complete camp mutiny.

Such a sensitive event happened at the foot of Tongguan again, once the gaffe expanded and was stabbed to the court, Bian Lingcheng would definitely not protect him, and when the time came, I was afraid that it would be light.

Thinking of all this, Tian Jianye's forehead finally dripped, beads of sweat the size of beans. At this time, he was ashamed to find that he was also a person who bullied the weak and was afraid of the hard, and once these lambs who gave and asked for it became tough, there was nothing he could do.

Tian Jianye was in a mess, and at the critical moment, he finally remembered Gao Xianzhi, who was stationed in Tongguan, but unfortunately he was not in Tongguan at this time, and he took his attaché to inspect the various customs cities south of Tongguan early in the morning.

However, Gao Xianzhi's subordinate Wang Xuanli was in the army, so why not invite him to lead the troops to quell the chaos? As soon as he thought of this, Tian Jianye made up his mind, and he hurriedly roared to the barracks to see Wang Xuanli.

After seeing Wang Xuanli, Tian Jianye shouted: "The big thing is not good, there are fugitives outside Tongguan who want to mutiny, and they have captured the brigade under their command......"

Hearing that there was a mutiny, Wang Xuanli's complexion also deteriorated, the mutiny was not a joke, once it could not be controlled, it would bring a devastating disaster. So, he immediately lit up a thousand armor soldiers, "There are fugitives outside Tongguan who mutinied, follow me to quell the chaos!"

These armor soldiers are all elites in the army, and they are naturally not half a star stronger than those peddlers and pawns.

Seeing that Wang Xuanli only ordered a thousand armor soldiers, Tian Jianye was a little suspicious in his heart.

"General Wang, this, the number of thousands of people, isn't it, difficult, difficult to determine......"

Wang Xuanli laughed, "Please rest assured, General Tian, quelling chaos is the same as fighting, the soldiers are more expensive than the many, and a thousand people are enough to deal with a group of fugitives!"

After that, he led the troops out of the camp and went straight to the outside of Tongguan Pass.

Tian Jianye was skeptical, but he still chased after him.

……

The subordinates make trouble, including the connivance of Qin Jin, and if they don't give these villains who look down on people a little color, they really don't know how many catties and taels they have. The brigade was tossed for a while, and at this moment he was already kneeling obediently in front of Qin Jin and the others like a little lamb, and he was already shivering from the cold because he was naked.

"Get a piece of clothing, let him put it on, don't freeze people to death!"

Zheng Xianli calmly ordered, it was enough to toss for a while, their purpose was not to kill people. Besides, if you kill someone, you will cause trouble for Qin Jin in vain.

The brigade leader got dressed and kowtowed repeatedly, "Thank you for the general's grace of not killing, thank you for the general's grace of not killing!"

For a moment, he even felt that he was going to die, and if he fell into the hands of these fugitive soldiers, could he still be good? However, he never imagined that the other party seemed to be chaotic, but in fact he was extremely measured, and even avoided the vital points of his body.

Zheng Xianli pointed at Qin Jin and asked, "Do you know who the person in front of you is?"

The brigade leader replied honestly: "I don't know, dare to ask the general's name?"

"Qin Jin, the lieutenant of Xin'an County, is also!" Qin Jin took a deep breath and said his original official position word by word. The so-called history of the magistrate of Hongnong County, this kind of promotion is like a mirror, and it is not as stable as the small officials of the county court.

"Xin'an County Lieutenant?" the brigade commander muttered quietly for a while, then was shocked, and blurted out: "But, but in Xin'an, more than 10,000 people were beheaded, and Qin Shaofu, who set fire to countless dogs in Kunshan?"

Standing on the side of Qin Jin, Qi Bihe sneered three times.

"It's not too late to know at this moment, Qin Shaofu was born benevolent and righteous, and he can't bear to hurt you, if it falls into my hands and doesn't break a few arms and legs, how can I relieve my hatred?"

Lu Yu knew that what the other party said was not a lie, so he naturally thanked him for a thousand thanks, but he regretted it in his heart and wanted to die on the wall of Tongguan.

Where is this fugitive, it is clear that the army of a hundred battles was withdrawn from Shaanxi County, and it was a loss that he was still showing off his might in front of them just now, and now he is afraid to blush when he thinks about it. If the other party reveals his identity as soon as they meet, how can he encourage Tian Jianye to take their war horse?

Fortunately, Qin Shaofu Hai Han was elegant and did not have the same knowledge as him, otherwise it would not be impossible to kill him in the chaos.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Suddenly, there were bursts of chanting from far and near.

"Brothers on the other side, listen, I am the marshal of the soldiers and horses, as long as you put down your arms and stop making trouble, I will act as if nothing has happened, and I am not to blame for the past. If you are obsessed, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

This shout made the people who had already calmed down again excited, they thought that after arriving at Tongguan, they would be welcomed and treated well by the imperial court, and even if they were not welcomed, they would not be treated like enemies.

The knife slashed on the body, and the wound bled and could still heal, but this move was undoubtedly a knife on everyone's heart and liver, bleeding, but the wound did not know when it would heal.

Zheng Xianli suddenly replied loudly: "Is it Wang Xuanli's brother?

Wang Xuanli suddenly heard someone in the chaotic army shouting his name, and he was immediately surprised, and looked closely, only to see that the person was not Zheng Xianli, who had fought side by side in the Western Regions?

Immediately, Wang Xuanli remembered that Dr. Feng had mentioned that he had left Zheng Xianli by the side of Qin Jin, the lieutenant of Xin'an County, and all the great achievements made by Qin Jin were inseparable from this person, could it be that the famous "Qin Wenlie" was in the chaos of the army? Among the many rumors of Qin Jin, he was most impressed by the nickname "Wenlie" when he was born, so he subconsciously thought of "Qin Wenlie"

Wang Xuanli's mind turned quickly, or rather, these so-called rebels were originally the subordinates of "Qin Wenlie". He looked at Tian Jianye with a weak face, and said in his heart that this person has always had a bad reputation, in addition to extorting money, it is to drill the camp, how can the court let this kind of person be a Tongguan guard?

Thinking of this, Wang Xuanli had already guessed seven or eight points, it must be this guy who took the opportunity to extort money and kicked the iron plate, which caused the anger of the public. For a while, he made up his mind, and secretly decided that once it was confirmed that the other party was a soldier of "Qin Wenlie", he would definitely teach this guy to look good.

Zheng Xianli and Wang Xuanli are old acquaintances, and after the two met, they were very close to each other. Seeing this, Qin Jin's heart was relaxed, and a misunderstanding was easily resolved, and it finally didn't get out of control.

But when he first arrived in Tongguan, he encountered a turmoil, which cast an ominous cloud over the upcoming trip to Chang'an. If the officials in Chang'an City are all Tian Jianye's virtues, can state affairs still be good?

The reason why Qin Jin rushed to Tongguan in a hurry was more important, that is, he was worried about Gao Xianzhi's safety all the time. Li Longji, the son of the Tang Dynasty, had already had murderous intentions, but Gao Xianzhi still rushed back to Tongguan, didn't he stretch his neck and wait to be slaughtered?

Therefore, in addition to pleading to the emperor, the trip to Chang'an also had to protect a future for his brother who followed him from birth to death.

As long as Gao Xianzhi is saved from fire and water, the regrets of the previous life may no longer occur in this life.

The defeat of Talas has always been an eternal regret in the hearts of all the indignant youths, can't we give Gao Xianzhi another chance to return to the Western Regions after the civil strife in the Central Plains, and punish those Qarlu people who dare to betray the Tang Dynasty?
