Chapter 166: Zhu Di's Ambition

"Faint king, suffer death!"

Zhu Wen originally planned to hide in the pile of dead people and pretend to be dead to escape, but suddenly saw Yang Gao, who was dressed in a dragon robe, riding a horse and approaching from afar, and when he arrived, the killing intent was great, and when Yang Gao approached, he suddenly burst out, and the spear in his hand stabbed straight at Yang Gao's chest.

Clang!

Yang Gao was fortunate to be reminded by the system, and he was able to block Zhu Wen's fatal shot, but he was still shocked and numb.

"Quick, protect Your Majesty!"

The internal guard soldiers around Yang Gao were all taken aback, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Zhu Wen. However, Zhu Wen is also a person who can rank among the five generations of fierce generals, although his martial arts are not as good as Li Cunxiao, Wang Yanzhang and others, but they are by no means general. A spear swung out, killing through the crowd in the blink of an eye, and headed straight for Yang Gao.

"Ding Dong, Yang Gao has been detected to be in a state of fighting, with a force of +3, a base force of 89, and the current force has risen to 92."

Yang Gao wielded his halberd to resist Zhu Wen's attack with all his might, but Zhu Wen was holding the consciousness of exchanging one life for one life at the moment, and the strength he exerted was far beyond usual. Yang Gao tried his best to resist Zhu Wen for more than 20 rounds, but Zhu Wen saw a flaw and picked off the halberd with one shot.

"Hahaha, Yang Gao'er, you should die!"

When Zhu Wen saw that Yang Gao had lost his weapon, he was overjoyed, laughed, and stabbed Yang Gao in the throat with a shot.

"How dare a traitor do this?"

At this critical juncture, a thud sounded in mid-air. Yuwen Chengdu, who was originally escorting Dou Jiande over, saw that Yang Gao was in danger, and immediately urged the war horse under his crotch to hurry over, and the phoenix wings gilt boring in his hand smashed down with a force in the air.

"Ding Dong, it has been detected that Yuwen Chengdu is the protector of the main heart, the force is +8, the base force is 104, and the current force has risen to 112."

Zhu Wen was caught off guard by a boring hit the door of the head, and when he boarded, his brain burst out, and he fell off the horse with a muffled snort, and he couldn't move anymore after struggling a few times.

"Ding Dong, it was detected that Zhu Wen was killed by Yuwen Chengdu, and the host obtained 9 soul points, and the current total number of soul points rose to 179."

"Ding Dong, it was detected that there are currently three monarchs with the highest value of 4D attributes between 90-95 Zhu Wen and Li Mi who have been killed because of the relationship between the host, so the host is rewarded with an unlimited privilege summon and 60 soul points, and the current total number of soul points has risen to 239."

Yuwen Chengdu killed Zhu Wen as soon as he could, hurriedly rolled the saddle and dismounted, and said, "The last general is incompetent, which frightened Your Majesty." Please punish Your Majesty! ”

Yang Gao took a deep breath, calmed down, waved his hand lightly and said, "General Tianbao, get up, this Zhu Wen is hiding in the pile of dead people and waiting for the opportunity to ambush me, no one will expect it." You just saved my life again, and you have no merit, how can I punish you? ”

"Hmph, that's a pity. Zhu Wen actually failed to kill you, a thief! ”

Yuwen Chengdu slowly got up and was about to thank him, when Dou Jiande's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and he was suddenly furious, turned around and shouted angrily: "Dou Jiande, you dare to be so arrogant as a prisoner, I think you are tired of life!" ”

Dou Jiande laughed wildly: "The head has fallen off but the scar the size of a bowl, and I Dou Jiande will still be a good man twenty years later!" ”

Yuwen Chengdu was so angry that he immediately pointed at Dou Jiande angrily, "Don't you think I really dare not kill you?" ”

"Chengdu, step aside!"

Yang Gao frowned slightly, drank Yuwen Chengdu, and immediately turned his head and ordered: "Come on, take my father-in-law down to take care of him, don't neglect him!" ”

"Yes!"

Several internal guards behind him answered, stepped forward to replace several soldiers who escorted Dou Jiande, and took him down.

"Your Majesty, even if he is Dou Niangniang's father, he is entrenched in Hebei, openly confronting the imperial court, and committing such a heinous crime. He cursed His Majesty like this, the crime is extremely heinous, even if Your Majesty doesn't kill him, he shouldn't treat him so kindly! ”

Seeing Dou Jiande walking away, Yuwen Cheng said indignantly.

Yang Gao glanced at Yuwen Chengdu and said lightly: "Chengdu, I don't treat Dou Jiande well because he is the father of the informant. but because of his prestige in Hebei. Although Dou Jiande rebelled against the imperial court, he had to admit that this person was indeed generous and benevolent, sympathetic to the sufferings of the Li people, and really did a lot of practical things for the people. If I kill this person rashly, it will definitely arouse the anger of the people of Hebei against me. On the contrary, if you leave this person, you may have unexpected gains when you recover Hebei in the future. ”

Yang Gao's words are not untargeted. Historically, after Li Yuan beheaded Dou Jiande in Chang'an, a large-scale rebellion quickly broke out in Hebei, which had just been pacified by the Tang Dynasty, and many of Dou Jiande's former officials killed Tang Dynasty officials in response to this rebellion.

In order to quell this rebellion, the Tang Dynasty paid a very heavy price, and even the famous brave general Luo Shixin was unfortunately killed in this counterinsurgency.

Yang Gao, who is familiar with history, naturally cannot make the mistakes that Li Yuan once made, although Dou Jiande now hates himself to the core, but Yang Gao believes that as long as the kung fu is deep, the iron pestle is sharpened into a needle. What's more, there is also the bridge of Dou Xianniang, I believe that one day I can persuade Dou Jiande to surrender.

As long as Dou Jiande can surrender, with his prestige in Hebei, the difficulty will be greatly reduced in the future when the Sui army marches to recover Hebei.

。。。。。。。。。。

Although the Battle of Tanglin annihilated most of the elite of the Xia army, there were still some fish that slipped through the net. A few surviving Xia soldiers returned to Xingyang all the way and reported the disaster to Zhu Di, who was left behind: "General Zhu, something is wrong. Our army has been ambushed by the Sui army, and the king of Xia has been captured by the Sui army! ”

"What? King Xia was captured? ”

Zhu Di's eyes flashed with imperceptible joy when he heard this, but he quickly changed to a panicked look, and said in a lost voice: "How is this good? ”

"What else can I do? Of course, it is to raise the army to rescue the Xia King! ”

Before Zhu Di's words fell, Liang Jianfang, the general of the Xia army on the side, immediately said loudly in displeasure: "King Xia is the leader of millions of people in my Hebei, if he has a case, Zhu Di, you have ten heads and it is not enough to cut off!" ”

The corners of Zhu Di's mouth hooked slightly, and he secretly glanced at Li Wenzhong, who was standing beside Liang Jianfang. Li Wenzhong understood, and took advantage of Liang Jianfang's unpreparedness to suddenly draw his sword and cut off his head with a sword.

After killing Liang Jianfang, Li Wenzhong lightly put his sword back into its sheath and asked in a deep voice, "Cousin, what should we do?" ”

Zhu Di smiled slightly, and immediately said: "Cousin, immediately send an order, give up Xingyang, and collect troops back to Hebei." Dou Jiande is now captured by the Sui army, and he has no son, Hebei has become a borderless land, and we immediately rushed back to assist my father and turn Hebei into the territory of our Zhu family. ”

Li Wenzhong also smiled gloomily, arched his hand and said, "Okay, I'll go and give the order!" ”
