Chapter 588: Xiongdu (31)
Outside the palace gate, the armor is like an ant, a spear, and a halberd is like a forest. The soldiers on duty held weapons and glared angrily at Xu Le, and several leading generals gritted their teeth, eager to break Xu Le's body into thousands of pieces before fulfilling their wishes.
Everyone's expressions Xu Le saw it clearly, but he didn't take it to heart, with only thirty horses across the city, tens of thousands of eagles could not be controlled, and finally forced Wei Xuan to bow his head and beg for peace. The once majestic Yin Shi Shi and Gu Yi were executed, and they were also invited to this Daxing Palace to talk to the acting king and Wei Xuan face to face. As a martial artist, this experience is enough to be proud of the world, and if Grandpa is still alive in the world, he must praise himself. At this point in life, what more can a husband ask for, even if he encounters an accident in an instant, he has no regrets. Besides, even if they borrow a few guts, how dare they do it to themselves?
The dog that bites people does not show its teeth, if Wei Xuan really has bad intentions, he will let his subordinates keep his eyes on it, and when the time is right, he will give an order, and let his subordinates hug him and cut himself into meat sauce. Now such a move is obviously that the generals below have hatred in their hearts and have no choice but to express their dissatisfaction in this way, which is still a manifestation of incompetence in the final analysis. Besides, even if they want to do it, they have to have the strength to do it. Although there are thousands of troops and horses in Chang'an City today, the number of troops that the king can mobilize is far from so many.
Wei Xuan used the Yin Shishi and the whole family of Gu Yi as bargaining chips to sue for peace with him, and the price was that the Xuanjia Cavalry could not stop Jing Zhaoying from raising troops to fight the fire. Xu Le had no objection to this, seeing that the city was about to change hands, he didn't want to burn the city to the ground at this time. Besides, Xu Le is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and his cold appearance can't hide his innocence.
Don't look at him on weekdays, he is even more ruthless on the battlefield and doesn't care about human life. In fact, since he was a child, he was taught by his grandfather's words and deeds, and Xu Le loved the people more than most of the current military generals. He knew very well that if this fire continued, he didn't know how many people would lose their homes or go bankrupt, but Xuanjia rode into the Jedi, what if he didn't take the risk. The kindness of a woman will only harm the subordinates of the robe, and it will not benefit the people.
Doing thunderbolts and upholding the bodhisattva's heart is the path he has always adhered to. In the final analysis, the purpose of tonight's various acts is to force peace with war, to force the enemy to take the initiative to sue for peace, and to stop killing by killing. Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need to kill in vain. It was Xu Le's request to the eagle soldiers to fight the fire that he agreed to, and those soldiers did not slack off, and immediately picked up all kinds of instruments to fight the flames and isolate the source of the fire, and their enthusiasm was far above the defense of the city.
You must know that Xuanjia rode all the way and lit up more than a dozen alleys in Chang'an City. Coupled with the effect of fire pots and firewood and grass, the fire became bigger and bigger, and gradually became a trend of burning the camp. The 1,800 men could not control the fire at all, and the army had to be dispatched to extinguish the fire. Now most of the Yingyang soldiers in the city are either going to protect their homes or run to extinguish fires, even the Daxing Palace is no exception. I'm afraid that in addition to these warriors in front of me, the acting kings Yang Yu and Wei Xuan can't take out more troops to act as honor guards. I killed so many people tonight, are you still afraid of this little soldier?
Xu Le can understand the emotions of these people, their homes were burned, their robes were killed, and it is strange that they have no hatred for themselves. However, this reaction made Xu Le look down on him a little. As a seven-foot man, he should fight with a white blade, and kill the enemy at the expense of blood splashing five steps, this is what the big husband did. What's the point of being a child like this?
Wei Xuan's purpose in posing this kind of scene may be to give himself a dismount, but seeing this situation, he was even more contemptuous of these eagle soldiers, and his eyes were full of disdain, and he entered from the palace gate with his head held high.
According to Xu Le's thoughts, he wanted to come by riding alone to see what Wei Xuan dared to do to him. But under the Xuanjia cavalry, no one will rest assured that the master will be in danger. Even after repeated controversies, it was also the Han family Kunzhong who accompanied Xu Le to come to hurt people with Wei Xuan's tricks and secret arrows.
Han Yue is Xu Le's general friend, and he is a fighting general cultivated by the old lady Xu Dang, and he has been with Xu Le for many years. When fighting, the two cooperated with each other to help, which was enough to be worth dozens of people. Han Xiaoliu is not only loyal to Xu Le, but also has the ability to shoot with one hand, which can be called a hundred steps through the intestines and raising his hands. Even if Wei Xuan's intentions are not good, with the means of these three people, it is enough to fight his way out of the encirclement. At this time, Han Yue was in front and Han Xiaoliu was behind, and the three of them entered the Daxing Palace.
The Han brothers grew up in Xujialu since they were children, and they had never seen anything in the world, and they thought that Jinyang was already the limit of the city in the world, but they didn't know until they entered Chang'an that there were still such magnificent palaces and pavilions in the world. The moment he stepped into the palace gate, even Han Yue, who was old and serious, couldn't help but look around, hoping to see this palace room more clearly, let alone the young Han Xiaoliu.
Although Xu Le is calmer than the two brothers, he is unwilling to accuse these two friends of losing face by their behavior. In the final analysis, he is not a child of a family, and his face is not obtained by his demeanor and demeanor, but by his ability to fight with a knife and a gun. If it weren't for the various actions of fighting and arson in the middle of the night tonight, how could Wei Xuan introduce himself into Daxing Palace? On the other hand, since their brother is here, no matter what they do, they have to stay away and dare not be disrespectful. said that love is in the end, the sky has changed now, and his brother is the winner, so Wei Xuan can't help but bow his head.
The moment he walked into the palace gate, Han Xiaoliu suddenly stopped, turned back to those eagle soldiers and said, "What are you looking at?" If you are not convinced, come over and fight, and see the superior! There's a kind of standing up! Let me tell you, if we annoy Grandpa, not only will we burn down the alleys in the city, but this Daxing Palace will also not be able to escape! ”
Xu Le did not stop Han Xiaoliu, but wanted to see if there were still bloody warriors in the Sui army who stepped forward and fought with him in order to maintain the dignity of the Yang family. If there are still such heroes in the army, even if Li Yuan can enter the city, it will not be easy to control the defenders of Chang'an. He immediately stopped and looked back, and after a long time there was no sound. Those generals who had just frowned at themselves bowed their heads one by one.
Xu Le sighed in his heart: It seems that the Great Sui is exhausted, and there are not even a few heroes in the army, what hope can there be? Yu was more confident in the later negotiations, sneered, and greeted: Little Liu! Take the Han brothers all the way to the palace!
The Jiade Hall is like daylight, and now Yang Yu and Wei Xuan, who represent the side of the Son of Heaven of the Great Cause, can only rely on huge financial resources to show their status and wealth, hoping to obtain equal status with Xu Le. After all, this is an era that belongs to the family, and wealth and demeanor are part of the dignity of the family, and it can also be regarded as one of the strengths.
Wei Xuan had already understood before that Xu Le was born in Shenwu and was a rural descendant. Even if he may have a blood relationship with the former Xuanjia Xu Dang, he has never seen real wealth. If you want to suppress him, you can only rely on the word wealth. It is the special magnificence in the Garter Temple, and the number of lamps and candles used is several times that of normal days.
Seeing Xu Le and his entourage striding in with straight knives, Yang Yu's face changed! The sword shoes go to the temple to worship and worship without a name, which is the treatment only for important ministers. What's more, Yang Guang was suspicious, for fear that someone would take the opportunity of the court to assassinate him, so he did not allow hundreds of officials to carry weapons to the palace. For the first time since he was born, Yang Yu had seen someone wearing a weapon in front of him. Coupled with the bloody appearance of the three of them, their hearts became more and more worried, and they didn't know if they were here to talk or kill. I had to look at Wei Xuan with a look for help.
Wei Xuan coughed lightly: "As a courtier of the Great Sui, the Duke of Tang has received the emperor's favor, and since you are under the command of the Duke of Tang, how dare you be rude and offend Chitose?" Aren't you afraid that you will do anything wrong and ruin the reputation of Tang Guogong? Dismiss! ”
Xu Le didn't pay attention to Wei Xuan, but pulled a chair and sat down, while Han Jiakunzhong stood behind Xu Le. The three of them had just stepped off the battlefield, their faces were covered with blood, their bodies were full of murderous energy, and their eyes were fierce, as if they were going to choose someone to eat. The palace full of lamps and candles was rich and noble, and it didn't have the slightest effect on them, and they couldn't scare these battlefield warriors at all, and their six eyes glared at Yang Yu together, so frightened that the latter shivered, and almost screamed. Xu Le smiled at Wei Xuan at this time, revealing a mouthful of neat white teeth:
"What did Wei Gong say? Why can't I understand a word? We are all fighting men and coarse, we just like to go straight, don't waste our energy. Now that the two armies are fighting, even in front of my family and country, I also carry weapons. This little palace plus a doll, why should I be relieved? Don't go around the bend and say it bluntly, if you can talk about it, everyone will talk about it, and if you can't talk about it, you will fight, the left and right are just a life, it's not a big deal! ”
Wei Xuan looked Xu Le up and down, unmoved by his expression. Anyway, he is also an old minister who has been rolling on the battlefield for half his life, so he will not be frightened by this little battle. After a while, he asked, "Are you Xu Le?" Yukura will die at your hands? ”
Xu Le nodded and did not make a sound. Wei Xuan said: "Who are you in the black armor Xu Dang?" ”
"It's my grandfather!" Xu Le knew that most people of Wei Xuan's age had some friendship with his grandfather. Although each is now its master, but grandpa's old acquaintance, he always has to give some face. It's not for Wei Xuan, it's not for the other party's status, it's just for Grandpa.
Wei Xuan nodded: "Sure enough, as soon as you came in, I found that your eyebrows and eyes were familiar, and it was not strange that you were the grandson of Lao Xu Kang." Is your grandfather still physically strong? Do you still like to drink and scold people like you did in the past, and you will enter your mother and father at every turn? ”
Xu Le didn't have a family affair with Wei Xuan, but shook his head and said, "Grandpa has passed away and died in the hands of Wang Rengong." In the final analysis, it was at the hands of the Son of Great Cause, so I have no enmity with the Yang family. Since I can remember, Grandpa has never mentioned that he has any old acquaintances in Chang'an, if Wei Gong wants to pull me into friendship, it is better to save effort. Xu is now a general of the Li family, and he entered the city to seize the city by military order. I don't have the heart to take care of personal relationships when I don't finish my business, if Wei Gong just wants to say this, then it's better to avoid opening my mouth as soon as possible! ”
Wei Xuan was closed, but he was not discouraged, but smiled slightly: "Are you loyal to the Li family?" Don't you want to know why your family died? What happened to the fire in the Prince's Mansion that day? Although the old man has nothing else to do, he can always live longer than ordinary people, and I know everything that others don't know. ”
