Chapter 949: Supported by All Peoples
On the second day, outside the north gate, a large number of people were already standing at this time.
They stood on the left and right, and there was a path in between.
At the end of the road knelt about fifty people, led by Shang Nang, and the other fifty people were his generals, they knelt with expressions of despair on their faces. They will be judged today. and beheaded them. For these captives, Li Chengqian had his own way of deciding. It is not necessary to have Li Shimin's consent.
The people began to talk about it below.
"These Tubo people dare to invade my Datang, and now they are going to die! What retribution! ”
"Yes, these people deserve to die! in order to comfort the people of my Tang Dynasty. ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will sacrifice them, and if he goes on the next expedition, he will definitely be able to achieve victory!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hasn't come out yet."
"Of course, it's just dawn now, and it's not time yet, and if the time comes, they'll come out."
……
The people discussed everything about Tubo and Li Chengqian.
The men waited for a while, and then someone shouted.
"It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they're out!"
Facing the direction pointed by the man, he really saw Li Chengqian riding out with 50,000 Tang Tie.
These soldiers were full of spirit and high spirits.
It makes people feel a surge of fighting spirit.
Some people recognized the people behind Li Chengqian.
"That's Su Lie, the legendary hero who resisted the Turks! Such a big hero is as famous as Xue Rengui. I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be able to recruit these two people at the same time. Fight to assist the Tang Dynasty. This is the luck of Datang. ”
Su Lie and Xue Rengui are very famous. even surpassed Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chi Jingde in a short period of time. At the same time, Qin Qiong's reputation reached its peak during this period of time. Li Chengqian did not bring Qin Qiong out. As a hero of the older generation. On the issue of resisting the Turks, Qin Qiong's prestige is also extremely high.
"There seems to be an existence named Wang Xuance next to him."
"There is also the rear, it is the son of General Cheng, and it is really heroic!"
……
Anything that people could say, they joined the discussion. Whether it's true or not, it can be used as a thing for people to talk about after dinner. It's all interesting, and they love to hear everything about these heroic figures. Li Chengqian also allowed it, after all, this can increase the prestige of his army among the people. So as to make the hearts of the people he get more pure.
Yesterday, everyone was still under the control of Tibet, and everyone had no freedom, but now it is different. Able to talk about everything calmly.
People frantically shouted and shouted His Royal Highness the Prince, hard work! If you need it, we're here for you!
For the enthusiasm of these people. Li Chengqian nodded in response.
His actions caused a frenzied shout from the crowd. The treatment he gets is no smaller than that of today's traffic stars, and even to the extent that the people are galloping.
Li Chengqian and the others continued to move forward.
By the time he reached Shang Nang, the executioner had already prepared the broadsword.
These knives were sharpened yesterday and are very sharp.
Promise not to make them suffer in any way.
Li Chengqian walked in front of Shang Nang.
At this time, Shang Nang had long lost his temper.
Now he has lost any vitality.
Because he couldn't live anymore.
"Shang Nang, your death will boost the morale of this king's expedition, you should feel proud!"
Shang Nang is silent, people are dying, and there is nothing to say.
"Tell me, what other last words do you have, maybe I can fulfill them for you, such as informing your friends, or Songtsen Gampo?"
"Will you spare my life?"
Shang Nang said.
"Hahaha, what do you say?"
Knowing that it was impossible, he still asked.
This Shang Bao is really depressing.
"Hey......"
"There's nothing to say! Well, come on! Execute! ”
Li Chengqian stepped aside.
Then the executioner swung his sharp broadsword.
The people around looked at Shang Nang's dying and felt excited.
These people are heinous, and it is right to let them die.
Then, the executioner's big knife swung up and slashed directly at the heads of Shang Nang and the others, and the knives fell to the head, and more than fifty corpses fell to the ground.
Then they hung their heads on the walls.
At the same time, it attracted bursts of applause.
"Good! Good! ”
And the cheers of the people continued for a long time, until Li Chengqian ordered everyone to be quiet.
At this time, he said: "All the people in Hezhou City, this king will go to Shancheng to drive the Tubo people out of my Tang Dynasty!" At this time, there will be a deficit in Hezhou City. ”
As soon as his words came out, everyone was a little shocked.
So what to do?
If there is another Tibetan army coming, then there is no force to resist in Hezhou.
Li Chengqian had already thought about this point.
So he said: "Everyone, be quiet, this king also has a way, at this time, this king has already notified Chang'an, let Lu Guogong bring a large army to come, within five days, there will definitely be a large army to help, you can rest assured!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone quieted down.
Then, he said, "Du Gou, Baolin, you two come here!" ”
"Yes!"
The two followed Li Chengqian's side.
"These two people, one is the son of Wei Chi Jingde, and the other is the son of Lai Guogong, they are heroic young people, and they will govern Hezhou City in these five days, this king hopes that you can listen to them well, and this king will also leave 10,000 troops to protect Hezhou, and what you have to do is only support, if you don't support, they will be instructed, and those who don't support will be expelled!"
Li Chengqian's words were not negotiable.
People don't seem to feel anything wrong with it.
"We listen to His Royal Highness the Prince!"
"Yes, whatever His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks us to do, we will do!"
The crowd shouted.
Li Chengqian nodded, and said to the two of them: "The two of you must guard Hezhou well, if there is an enemy coming, don't fall in love with the battle, and take defense as an attack." If the enemy is pressing, bombard them directly with cannons, and this king will leave a hundred cannons here! ”
As soon as Li Chengqian said this, Du Wei said, "Then what should you do?" ”
Without artillery, it is equivalent to having no weapons to attack, so what are Li Chengqian going to do?
Cheng Chumo came out and said: "You are stupid, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dares to do this, there must be his reason, if you don't understand, don't ask, understand?" ”
Du Wei was speechless, so he had to be.
"Alright, let's go now!"
After that, he waved his hand, and everyone followed him to the place where Shancheng was.
This time, he only took 40,000 people, and as for 10,000 people, he may have arrangements in the future, but not now.
And the people followed them, and they followed them for ten miles before gradually retreating.
This feeling of being supported by all the people made Li Chengqian feel very gratified.
