Li Xiong: ......

Wang Li: ......

The two glanced at each other in confusion, and their eyes were confused.

Li Xiong had already abandoned the pass, and all the mobs were united in planning to fight Wang Li to the end, so he was not too surprised that the city pass was occupied, but Wang Li's face was sluggish, and an old guy on the upper floor of the city looked like ...... Slightly...... Somewhat familiar...... Mainly after playing for an hour, I am a little dizzy right now.

"General~~" Wang San, Wang Si and the others saw the burly figure on the city tower at a glance, and couldn't help but exclaim at the same time.

At this time, the group of mobs who followed Li Xiong's rebellion also turned pale, and the little ambition to participate began to collapse.

There was Wang Li's army in front of him, and a forbidden army suddenly appeared behind him, and now everyone was caught in the middle, and there was almost no chance of escaping.

"Li Xiong, we are surrounded, kill Wang Li quickly, otherwise I will die in vain today!" A burly old man with gray hair raised the long knife in his hand and roared.

"Wang Li, take your life~" Li Xiong's eyes were splitting at this time, knowing that today was already a mortal situation and there was no way out, so he roared and danced his spear to kill Wang Li.

"Okay, let's see Ben Hou marry your dog!" Wang Li also instantly burst out with a murderous aura and swung his big sword and pounced.

"Boom~~"

Above the city tower, a tall and arm-long guard beside Wang Ben let go of the iron-tired longbow in his hand, and a pitch-black white feather long arrow broke through the air with a whin, and with a bang, it was inserted into the muddy snow in the middle of Li Xiong and Wang Li, and the long arrow was half a foot into the soil, and the arrow shaft and tail feathers of the thickness of the thumb were still whining and swaying in the cold wind.

"Stop~ If anyone dares to move, the old man will not be spared!" Standing on the top of the city tower, the general spoke, "The old man Tongwu Marquis Wang Ben, who was ordered by the emperor to come to thoroughly investigate the case of the soldiers of Yanmen Pass destroying Jingbian Temple......

"Wang Ben?!"

Under the city tower, whether it was the bandits or the Qin army, they couldn't help but exclaim loudly, Li Xiong's body shook and turned his head to stare at the top of the city tower, the hands holding the gun trembled nervously, and Wang Li was stunned for a few seconds and then suddenly burst into a hearty laugh: "Hahahaha, Li Xiong, my father is here, he has already taken the Yanmen Pass, and if he doesn't give up the gun and give the head, when will he wait?" ”

"Wang San, Wang Si, what are you waiting for, don't you take down this son of evil with me!" Wang Ben's fingers carried away Wang Li, and his angry voice echoed in front of the silent Yanmen Gate.

"Huh!?" Wang San, Wang Si and a group of guards were all dumbfounded, thinking that they had misheard.

"Take down Wang Li with Benhou, dare to resist and kill, what are you waiting for?" Wang Ben roared again.

"Gah?!" Wang Li, who was smiling happily with a big sword, was like a goose that had been grabbed by the throat, looking up at the city tower with a dull face.

"The major general is offended!" Wang San and Wang Si finally recovered from their sluggishness, stepped forward to take the big sword from Wang Li's hand, and then the two dragged Wang Li back to the front of the battle.

"Brother, the Marquis of Tongwu is here to thoroughly investigate the destruction of his uncle's ancestral temple, you must not act rashly, let everyone discard their blades!" Above the castle tower, a young man with a disheveled hair came out and shouted.

"Four...... Fourth brother, can this be true? Li Xiong stayed for a long time and then yelled.

"Old man Wang Ben, I am ordered to thoroughly investigate the matter of Yanmen Pass, no matter what grievances and anger you have, quickly throw away the blade and don't resist, wait for the old man to review it clearly, and naturally give you a satisfactory answer......"

Wang Ben looked at the corpses and the scarlet muddy snow all over the place after the battle between the two armies in front of the pass, the green tendons on his neck swelled, and he couldn't help but grasp the stone bricks of the city wall with both hands, and felt an irrepressible anger in his chest that wanted to break through his body and explode.

Among everyone, it can be said that he knew about the Yanmen Pass at the latest, and it was already too late to know, and this matter had already been stabbed out by the Marquis of Qinghe in the court.

Originally, he and Wang Jian were very worried about the emperor wanting to give Wang Li the marquis, and Wang Ben also personally entered the palace to persuade the emperor, but the emperor still insisted on acting, not only to Wang Li, but also to replace Meng Tian to control the northwest army, which is not only the honor of the Wang family, but also the crisis of the Wang family.

And Wang Jian knows that Chen Xu's rise is unstoppable, and he will inevitably become another top nobleman who surpasses Wang's family in the future, but there will inevitably be some irreconcilable contradictions between the new and old nobles.

It's not that Wang Jian is afraid of Chen Xu, but that Wang Jian is worried that his children and grandchildren will be proud of themselves and offend Chen Xu.

Because Chen Xu's origin is too mysterious, so mysterious that the emperor can't resist and look at it directly, his Wang clan naturally doesn't dare or is unwilling to provoke.

Although Wang Ben is a military general, he is definitely brave and strategic, although he is not as good as his father, but he also knows what his father has been worried about, so he has always been very low-key, and he hides in his hometown on weekdays to practice martial arts and hunting, and his new body is cultivated, although he is bland but also at ease, only after his son was transferred to the northwest by the emperor as a general, Wang Jian and Wang Ben father and son have been constantly worried.

But worries come and go, and what worries them the most still happens.

Wang Liju Gong arrogantly ignored military law, and caused hundreds of civilian deaths and injuries near Yanmen, and now tens of thousands of civilians rebelled and burned the county government to capture Yanmen Pass, a scuffle, what he saw in front of him was the bloody and muddy snow, no less than 2,000 corpses on both sides, densely covered with the entire valley, the bloody scene and bloody breath made him feel his soul throbbing one after another, and his body felt more and more cold, as if he was slowly falling into an ice cave.

Now he is almost fifty years old, his body is not as good as before, the two years of conquering Lingnan, almost no good rest, has always wanted to finish this last battle for the emperor to draw a happy ending to his military career, so he worked very hard, finally conquered Lingnan after just returned to Xianyang for three days, his father died suddenly, which was an unprecedented blow to him, and it was sad and painful to finally finish his father's funeral, the mourning period had just ended, Suddenly, he heard that his son had caused a big disaster and was targeted by the Marquis of Qinghe, Wang Ben was so angry that he had to ask for an order to come and deal with his son personally, because according to the current pattern of Daqin, the emperor was unwilling to punish, if he didn't make a move, he could only make a move by the Marquis of Qinghe, and when the Marquis of Qinghe made a move, there would be no room for any turnaround, even if he was Wang, he would never be able to resist, because between the Marquis of Qinghe and the Wang family, as long as the emperor was not stupid and old enough to the point of not knowing what was going on, he would definitely give up the Wang family.

Because Daqin will definitely not only fight with him, but also many generals who are proficient in the art of war, without the Wang emperor, he will not eat pigs with hair, there are too many people who kill pigs for him, and now that Daqin is surrounded by surrenders, the Wang family is actually useless to the emperor except for countless glory.

Wang Ben even guessed the emperor's intention to let him go to conquer Baiyue, that is, to let him completely retire and enjoy his old age in peace, and to give Wang Li an honorable marquis and a position of a great general, which was also placed in the northwest to enjoy happiness, because after the surrender of the Xiongnu Donghu, there would not be any decent foreign invasion in the east and north directions of Great Qin for at least decades or even hundreds of years.

The birds are all gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooked, the monarch and the ministers will not be harmonious to the point that there is no suspicion since ancient times, think about Li Mulian, these loyal generals of the Zhao State, in the end they all ended up with a bleak ending because of suspicion, although the first emperor has always regarded the Wang father and son as humerus, but now Daqin no longer needs the Wang family, the illustrious family, the prosperity is coming, the sword soldiers enter Kuma and put Nanshan, and can die at home like Daddy Wang Qian, which is already the most perfect ending for all military generals, No matter how extravagant it is, it is not impossible to dig its own grave, and if it arouses the dissatisfaction of some other high-ranking people, it is not impossible for the Wang family to fall into a bleak consequence.

Therefore, after Wang Ben suddenly got the trouble caused by his son in Yanmen Pass, he was furious and asked for his life to go straight to Yanmen Pass, brave the wind and snow for a long journey of 2,000 miles, angry, tired, anxious, and suddenly frightened by the black dragon shadow that suddenly appeared when he crossed the black dragon mouth, Wang Ben almost collapsed at that time, and then galloped nearly 300 miles overnight, so sleepless, in fact, by now, Wang Ben has long been unable to hold on.

At this time, seeing the chaotic situation in front of him and his son's arrogant appearance, Wang Ben's heart was full of blood, and before he finished speaking, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and fell down as soon as it was dark.

"General~" The guards around him swarmed him and held him up.

Wang Ben was dizzy at this time, his ears roared like a big river, his eyes were also congested and red, and with the blood-colored stimulation under the city pass, everything in front of him turned scarlet, as if there was constantly blood in the sky like a river.

After holding on to the city wall and breathing for a long time, Wang Ben stood up again: "It's okay, Captain Xiao guards the city pass, and the rest of the people go down with the old man!" ”

Under the city pass, thousands of scarred mobs all discarded their swords, guns, bows and arrows and knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise their heads, Wang Ben is not Wang Li's kind of gentleman, that is the existence of Daqin now in the mountains, no one dares to look directly at him except for the beginning of the emperor, so even now everyone is eager to break Wang Li's body into pieces, but in the face of Wang Ben, they have to bow down.

"Meet the General~" Thousands of equally scarred horsemen all dismounted and knelt on one knee.

Looking at Wang Ben who strode over, Li Xiong, who had been heroic and heroic before, was also timid, and threw the iron gun on the ground with a loud cry and hugged his fist, dodging Wang Ben's eyes and said: "Li Xiong, a grass man, meets Tongwu Hou, I don't know if Tongwu Hou can really show snow for my uncle and many people who have been wronged for no reason!" ”

"Don't worry, when Benhou comes, he will definitely give you a satisfactory answer, Wang Sanwang and Wang Si, drag this son of evil to the old man!" Wang Ben strode past Li Xiong and yelled as he walked in front of him.

"Dad, don't listen to these bandits' nonsense, outside the Yanmen Gate that day, they were the ones who did it first......" On the way to be escorted over by several guards of five big and three thick, Wang Li was still shouting loudly.

"Smack~~" Wang Ben strode forward and slapped Wang Li's face hard, and instantly saw five red fingerprints coming out, and then clicked and pressed the tension spring of the scabbard, choking out half of the bright sword.

"Son, the old man cut off your dog's head today and went back to ask the emperor for his guilt!" Wang Ben roared.

"The general is angry~~" A group of guards hugged Wang Ben to the death.

"Don't be a general, the young general can't be killed even if he is at fault, he should be brought back to Beijing for interrogation!" Wang Wu, Wang Qi and a group of guards were also frightened and confused, and they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to plead for mercy.

"Please calm the general's anger!" Thousands of horsemen were also frightened by Wang Ben's actions, and they all knelt on the ground to intercede for Wang Li.

"Dad, I'...... Where the hell did I do wrong, these mobs burned the Guangwu County Ya, snatched the Yanmen Pass, and killed hundreds of guards, this is all a capital crime, you ...... Why are you hitting me? Wang Li was still not convinced.

"Son, you dare to quibble, you smashed Jingbian Temple, killed and injured dozens of people, and then pursued the people who complained about it and many local celebrities...... You dare to quibble after such a catastrophe, poof~~~" Wang Jian said this, and opened his mouth to spew out a mouthful of blood again.

"Dad~~" Wang Li's frightened face turned pale and stood up and wanted to help.

"Bang~" Wang Ben kicked Wang Li to the ground fiercely, and pointed at Wang Li angrily and roared, "You say, what merit do you have worthy of the lord of the Marquis of Wu, what martial arts do you have worthy of the position of general, Your Majesty handed over the 60,000 northern army to you, is it the one who let you set up for the murderous chaos of Daqin?" You did not follow the military orders and caused hundreds of casualties among the civilians, what face do you have to go to the emperor, what face do you have to face the trust of His Majesty, you say...... Poof~~" In the roar, Wang Ben spurted out a mouthful of blood again.

"Dad, I was wrong, don't be angry......"

Wang Li had never seen his father so angry, and he knelt on the ground in fright and didn't dare to look up.

At this time, my father's body was full of soaked ice and snow muddy water, his hair and beard were scattered and tangled, his face was blue and white, and the blood on the corners of his clothes and mouth made him feel at a loss, thinking of the situation of the heavy snow and road closure in the cold winter, and suddenly thought that his father must have rushed over from Xianyang in the wind and snow.

"Come on, tie this son to me, and take down the Guangwu County Order Fu Rui, Yanmen Pass to guard Lu Rong, Yanmen Pass Captain Zhao Bao, Northern Army Protector Captain Cai Xing, and take down all the generals who participated in the destruction of Jingbian Temple!"

"喏~~"

As soon as Wang Ben gave the order, hundreds of forbidden troops behind him rushed into the Qin army's large array, and under the guidance of the horse soldiers, they quickly dragged everyone out and threw them on the bloody and muddy snow.
