108,Chapter 16 A Completely Different God of War (4)
On November 19, Liu Heimin captured Dingzhou (present-day Dingzhou City, Hebei) and captured Tang governor Li Xuantong alive. Liu Heimin thought that he was a talent and fought bravely, so he persuaded him to follow him, and the benefits he wanted would be given to him without hesitation, Li Xuantong was a kind of principled man, who did not betray the master, and resolutely and decisively rejected Liu Heimin's kindness. Liu Heimin was very angry, and the natural consequences were very serious, so he threw him into prison and imprisoned.
Li Xuantong is a figure with a head and a face, and he is usually popular, but he is locked up, and old friends often come to see him.
One day, an old official came to see him with wine and meat, and he ate and drank with them open, and when he was slightly drunk, he told the guards that he could dance with a sword, and asked the guards to borrow a sword and dance a sword to help him have fun, and it was too lonely and boring to be locked up alone.
It is estimated that the guards themselves are also idle, and they also want to see the sword dance to relieve their boredom, so they obediently gave the knife to Li Xuantong.
Li Xuantong took the sword, there was no music, he picked up the sword at will, turned around and jumped up, picked up the sword, once and for a while, he was so skillful, the sword arm danced, with the evil aura of shocking the enemy, sometimes as light as a swallow and a sword, sometimes suddenly like a fallen leaf, suddenly pulled out the pace, and the sword qi broke through the wind...... Seeing that others were stunned, they were surprised that Li Xuantong was indeed a master of sword dancing.
After Li Xuantong finished dancing, he wiped a handful of fine sweat on his forehead, and looked up to the sky and sorrowful: "I am favored by Li Tang, I manage a piece of land, I can't hold the city, and I really don't have the face to live in this world." After speaking, without waiting for the people present to recover from his performance and speech, he committed suicide with a knife.
Li Xuantong sacrificed his life for the country like this, and he is really an admirable man.
When the news reached Chang'an, Li Yuan shed several tears for his suicide and martyrdom.
Of course, the world will not stand still because of Li Xuantong's suicide, right and wrong, the fight and killing must continue, but he is no longer involved.
On November 27, Zhou Wenju, a native of Qizhou, slaughtered Wang Xiaoju, the Tang assassin, and surrendered to Liu Heimin.
On the third day of December, Liu Heimin seized Jizhou and killed the governor Lu Ling. At the same time, he sent letters to Dou Jiande's old departments in Weizhou and Zhaozhou, asking them to join him in opposing the Tang Dynasty and avenging the King of Xia...... A group of fierce men who are resolute and resolute.
On the 12th, Liu Heimin defeated Li Shiji, the general of Zuo Wuhou, in Songzhou, when more than 5,000 soldiers in Tang were killed, and only Li Shiji escaped alone, presumably he stepped on the Hot Wheels and ran faster than anyone else, saving his life.
For this reason, Liu Heimin's army is prosperous.
At the same time, the Turkic Jieli Khan also sent people to aid Liu Heimin, icing on the cake for him, which shocked Tang Ting, and secretly wondered if Liu Heimin, a peasant brother who suddenly appeared, would it be their nemesis, they have been the nemesis of many powerful heroes in the world, and they know that nemesis is not a joke.
Liu Heimin's morale was high, and he successively captured Zhaozhou, Xiangzhou, Weizhou and Lizhou, and in the blink of an eye, he restored Dou Jiande's old land.
Liu Heimin is a man like the wind, which is unpredictable, but he can make people feel the strength of the strong. At the beginning, he was just a good general under Dou Jiande, when he was selected as the leader by divination and led everyone to revolt, he was not the man he used to be at all, every trace of his body has changed, his leadership ability is particularly outstanding, the combat strategy is impressive, and he is full of the god of war style, so as to surpass his former boss and fellow countryman Dou Jiande.
