Chapter 285: Fierce Fire Oil
After August 15, Li Jun arranged for the envoy to send the princess to Beiliao, the night before leaving, Li Jun went to see the princess of Heqin, this person is Liu Xiang's eldest daughter, named Liu Ling, who has a long natural posture and national color, and has practiced the heavenly demon dance since childhood, and every move is very charming and moving.
In order not to make Li Jun lustful, after Empress Dowager Wei saw this woman, she specially issued an order not to allow Li Jun to see this woman.
But in the end, Li Jun still didn't control his curiosity, and went to the post house to see Liu Ling, He Shen and Wang Zhen accompanied him, Li Jun came to the door of Liu Ling's courtyard and asked lightly: "How is the matter I arranged?" ”
He Shen immediately replied: "Your Majesty, the old slave has already arranged for three students from the Academy of Science and Technology who are good at drawing to enter the mission. ”
Wang Zhen also replied with his hand on the side: "Your Majesty, the spies and spies of Jinyiwei have also been arranged, they are all from Liangzhou, and there will be no mistakes, please rest assured, Your Majesty." ”
Li Jun nodded and said, "Okay, now that everything is ready, it's up to our heroine, Wang Zhen, go knock on the door." ”
"No."
Soon Li Jun and others were led into the house by the maid, Li Jun waited patiently in the flower hall, and soon a bewitching woman walked in, the gilded flower seat around the head was embellished with blood coral, reflecting her gorgeous and delicate face, the hollow butterfly ornaments on both sides connected to the tassels, and then the mesh curtains made of various colors of turquoise beads were worn, the curtain was shoulder-length, and the fiery red peony intarsia pinched waist brocade robe outlined her young and plump figure.
Li Jun watched all the beauties on the Internet in later generations, although there was a hint of amazement, but he quickly reacted, He Shen was a eunuch, and he was unmoved, but Wang Zhen on the side gasped, Li Jun glanced at Wang Zhen coldly, Wang Zhen immediately knelt down and pleaded: "Please forgive your majesty." ”
At this time, Liu Ling finally spoke: "The slave family sees Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live." ”
Li Jun was very gentlemanly and helped Liu Ling and said: "Haha, princess, please get up, tomorrow the princess will go to Beiliao, I will see off the princess." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the slave family is going to Beiliao and understands their mission, so Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, but I ask Your Majesty to fulfill your promise." Liu Ling said lightly.
Li Jun sighed and said: "Alas, in fact, I think you are a good woman, but unfortunately you were born in the emperor's family, you can rest assured about your brother's affairs, I will not only raise him as an adult, but also let him revitalize the family." ”
"Your Majesty, you must not, the slave family does not want your younger brother to get ahead, just want your younger brother to live in peace and stability." Liu Ling hurriedly refused.
Li Jun's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he laughed: "Haha, you are not only beautiful, but also very smart, I agreed to your request, and as long as you do a good job for me this time, not only can your brother be saved, but I will also do my best to let you come back alive......"
"The little woman knocks on Longn."
After getting out of Liu Ling's courtyard, Wang Zhen suddenly knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has the courage to admonish, this woman can't return to the Tang Dynasty alive, if she comes back, it will damage Your Majesty's wisdom, and the minister will not sacrifice the lives of his brothers for this woman." ”
Li Jun waved his hand and said: "Wang Zhen, Wang Zhen, you are very smart, but I don't agree with your point of view, I don't want to take a woman's chest in exchange for peace, this time I have to do this, and I am not afraid of how the history books of later generations will record." ”
After speaking, Li Jun got into the carriage, and Li Jun walked a long way before he vaguely heard Wang Zhen's voice from behind: "Your Majesty is broad-minded, and you admire ......"
At the same time, Li Jun also issued an order to Pei Du, the general of Yuyang Pass, to capture the city of Goryeo, at this time the Goryeo army was in front of the confrontation with the Northern Liao, and the domestic troops were empty, which was a good time to take the city of An.
If Yuyang Pass is the gateway of the Tang Dynasty, then Anshi City is the most important gateway of Beijin, and if you take Anshi City, the Tang army can go directly to the Liaoyang Plain, but Anshi City stands between two mountain passes, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are 50,000 of the most elite troops stationed all year round, so that the Tang army has suffered a lot.
Just yesterday, Li Jun received a message from Su Ji, Su Ji told Li Jun that the war with the Northern Liao front line was tight, and Wanyan Zongbi ordered the 20,000 troops in Anshi City to be transferred to the front line, the time was only half a month, and after half a month, the new garrison was about to be filled, this opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and Li Jun felt that he was sorry for himself if he didn't seize it.
Pei Du, the guard of Yuyang Pass, has been leading 50,000 Liaodong troops to garrison Yuyang Pass since Gao Zhe returned to Beijing, although the court has not forgotten itself whether it is a change of clothes or something over the years, but the army has stayed in this broken place for five years, Pei Du feels that his bones are going to rust, before the battle of Hangai Mountain, the people of Beijin still can't come out to fight an autumn breeze, and the 50,000 Liaodong Army also has something to do, but since the defeat of Beijin again, the defenders of Anshi City have said that nothing will come out, Pei Du has nothing to do, I had to take my own soldiers everywhere to hunt every day.
And watching the juniors keep making contributions, but my predecessors seem to have been forgotten, and I feel very uncomfortable.
On this day, Pei Du got up early in the morning, as usual, and went to the martial arts training ground to practice martial arts, this habit has accompanied Pei Du for half his life, over the years, and has never stopped, as a qualified general, this skill must be mastered at all times, otherwise one day on the battlefield, if the martial arts are loose, it will make people laugh.
Pei Du had just finished playing a set of knife techniques, and he was sweating profusely, and a personal soldier hurriedly ran in and said: "Dashuai, someone has come to Beijing, and there is a holy decree." ”
Pei Du was stunned for a moment with the knife, and the knife of dozens of catties immediately smashed on Pei Du's feet, Pei Du screamed when he was smashed, and hurriedly put on his clothes, regardless of the pain in his feet, and went to the front office.
Pei Du came to the front office, and saw that it was an acquaintance, and the person who came was a lieutenant who followed Gao Zhe into Beijing together, this person was called Yue Qing, Pei Du gave Yue Qing a hug and laughed: "Brother Yue, why are you here?" ”
Yue Qing smiled and said, "General Pei, don't worry, the end of today will be here to announce the decree." ”
Pei Du hurriedly knelt down and said, "The minister accepts the order." ”
Yue Qing coughed and said, "Pei Du received the order, and I ordered you to capture Anshi City within ten days." ”
"Commandment." Pei Du didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly replied.
Yue Qing handed the holy decree to Pei Du, who stood up and scratched his head and said: "Old Yue, the city of Na'an City is made of stone, gunpowder is useless, and the moat there is dozens of meters wide, if you want to knock it down, I'm afraid it will be difficult." ”
Yue Qing waved his hand and said, "Pei Shuai, haven't you been clamoring to fight?" Why don't you want to do it again this time? ”
Pei Du smiled bitterly: "Lao Tzu is about to go crazy, but he is unwilling to take his brothers to death." ”
Yue Qing said with a smile: "Hehe, Pei Shuai, don't worry, this time the last general has brought a secret weapon." ”
"What secret weapon?" Pei Du asked curiously.
Yue Qing didn't explain, took Pei Du to the back camp, and gave a few instructions to the guards, and after a while, he saw more than a dozen soldiers carefully moving out of the lonely warehouse in the open space of the back camp four large porcelain jars, pouring the oil in one of the porcelain jars into the water tank, and then he quickly ran back, a few archers, had already prepared a long rocket, and after aiming, Yue Qing ordered the rest of the sergeants to hide.
Pei Du was surprised to see a layer of blue flames floating on the water surface, and in an instant, the flames became more than a zhang high, the temperature of the flames was very high, the whole water tank was suddenly torn apart, and the water flowed everywhere, but the flames were not extinguished, they continued to burn, and after about half an hour, when all the water was boiled dry, the flames were slowly extinguished.
Pei Du walked closer and took a closer look, and a large protruding stone was burned.
Pei Du laughed and said: "Good thing, this thing is prepared for Anshi City, with this thing, as long as Lao Tzu prepares a trebuchet, throws this thing into Anshi City, and then puts a fire, there will be no living person in the entire Anshi City." ”
Yue Qing replied with a smile: "Pei Shuai, can you rest assured this time?" ”
"Haha, don't worry, it's just that this battle is a bit boring, by the way, how much is this kind of oil? Anshi Castle is very large, and if it is missing, it will not work. ”
"Pei Shuai, Your Majesty ordered the Shaofu to rush to make it day and night, not to mention the small Anshi City, even if there are ten more, they will be burned to ashes, and tomorrow at the latest, the Northeast Navy Division will send it over."
"Haha, okay, let's go, good brother, let's go drink tonight, don't get drunk and don't return."
