Chapter 588: Hundred Generals Li Tong (First Shift)
Night, July 14, 255 B.C.
"This is destined to be a day that will go down in history." Li Tong walked on the cold Xianyang Street, thinking silently in his heart.
Li Tong is a native of Zhao State, and his father is responsible for taking charge of the accommodation of the guests for Zhao Sheng, the prime minister of Zhao State, and he is also a small official.
It stands to reason that Li Tong, as the second generation of officials, doesn't seem to need to work too hard, as long as he inherits the family business and serves Xinling Jun.
However, it is a pity that Li Tong's biological mother is a concubine, and Li Tong, as a concubine, naturally said goodbye to his father's family property because of this background.
The concubine wants to inherit the family business? Unless it is a perverted character like Meng Weijun Tianwen, no one else can think of such a good thing.
At first, Li Tong worked as a coolie under his father, and later became an insider of the supervision guard, and then was transferred to Hu Yiwei because Li Tong's mother was from the Qin State and taught Li Tong to speak Qin Chinese fluently, and then came to the Qin State three years ago.
After entering Guanzhong, Li Tong first stayed in a small village for a while, and after only a few days, Li Tong turned into a veteran and became a glorious old Qin.
After that, Li Tong joined the army and participated in the Qin-Chu War, the Pingjiequ Rebellion and other wars, and worked his way up the ranks to become a hundred generals of the Qin army.
After a few years of military career, the shadow of Zhao in Li Tongxin seems to have gradually faded, and he seems to have really become a Qin person, singing with the robes, beheading the enemy's head with the robes, cheering together, and celebrating the victory together.
Until this night, Li Tong thought that his mission was to continue to lurk.
In the previous long battle to defend the city, Li Tong often stood on the city wall and pressed the hanging knife of the crossbow in his hand fiercely towards the Zhao soldiers below the city.
Li Tong was a little confused, because he suddenly found that when a famous Zhao soldier died tragically under his arrows, he didn't even have the slightest heartache or sympathy.
Sometimes he even felt that he might already be a Qin person.
Until tonight, until half an hour ago, a daredevil, who appeared out of nowhere, suddenly bumped into Li Tong's arms when Li Tong went out to the toilet, and easily stuffed a small paper ball into Li Tong's hand.
"Tonight's three watches, dedicated to the east city gate." That's all there is to the paper ball.
This paper ball completely woke up Li Tong.
After a short period of weighing, Li Tong decided to fulfill his mission.
After all, in distant Handan, his mother is still looking forward to her return.
As a concubine, her mother suffered a lot of white eyes at home, and she took Li Tong to be bullied since she was a child.
On the night Li Tong left Handan, his mother, who was only in her forties but was already gray, hugged Li Tong tightly and told him: "Wu'er, if you go to live here, you won't return!" ”
Don't return.
How can there be no return?
I must return as a hero, so that everyone in the entire Handan, the entire Zhao Kingdom, and the entire world know that my mother has a good son like me and Li Tong!
Tonight, it was the time when Li Tong led his team of 100 people to the city to watch the night.
Xianyang in the middle of the night was deserted, and there was no one on the street, only the footsteps of Li Tong and a hundred subordinates behind him, with a certain rhythm in the chaos.
There seemed to be the chirping of crows in his ears, Li Tong frowned, suddenly picked up a stone, and threw it heavily at a tree not far away.
The crow croaked and flapped its wings away, and the shrill cicada chirping replaced the crow as another noise in Li Tong's ears.
Li Tong shook his head and continued to walk forward.
In front of him, the tall Xianyang city wall was already in sight.
The shift handover went smoothly, and Li Tong even had the leisure to patrol around the city wall, and by the way, he kicked the butts of a few guys who dared to rush into Shangguan and snore in front of Shangguan.
By the time Li Tong returned to the tower on the city wall, several Qin officers had already sat in a circle in the city tower and greeted Li Tong with a smile.
"Li Tong, why are you so late today, isn't it that you have consumed too much time on your own mother-in-law?"
A burst of laughter followed.
Li Tong took a heavy sip, snatched the gourd from the speaker's hand, and looked up to take a few big gulps.
"How is it water?"
The officer laughed and said, "Why, do you still want to have wine?" ”
Li Tong shook his head and took a seat in a corner that everyone had let out.
Since it was a vigil, and it was a wartime vigil, it was naturally impossible to sleep, and it was only possible to get through it by bragging about it when they got together and a few other generals who were also responsible for guarding the city gate.
Everyone's faces were relaxed, judging from the attacks of these days, the people of Zhao had never launched an overnight attack, which was undoubtedly good news for these low-level officers who were keeping vigil.
Everyone, you can tell me how the widow next door has a straight buttocks and how full her chest is, I will say how the Qiang woman I met when I went to the Nulu two days ago was energetic, and Li Tong also said something about how the concubine of Zhao Guoli from Zhao Guo was coquettish, and it also attracted two or three guys to echo and communicate loudly.
In short, they are all vulgar topics, and from time to time there is a burst of laughter, and the friendship and chatting between men is about that.
Time gradually passed, midnight was approaching, and everyone's sleepiness gradually rose, and they didn't want to talk much.
Suddenly, a distant shout of killing faintly entered the castle tower.
"What's going on?" Many Qin Army officers stood up one after another.
Li Tong acted the fastest, and when everyone just stood up, he had already run out of smoke.
Before the others could walk out of the city tower, Li Tong had already returned.
"Zhao Guoren, it was Zhao Guoren who launched a night attack!"
"What?" The Qin State officers present were shocked, and one by one they immediately subconsciously wanted to pull out the weapons on their waists.
Suddenly, a miserable scream sounded, and it turned out to be the Baijiang who was standing closest to Li Tong and stabbed Li Tong's sword into the chest.
Almost at the same time, two more Qin generals drew their weapons and stabbed at their colleagues.
After a few rounds, the remaining five hundred generals had become corpses.
Li Tong and the two generals of the Qin army, who were brazenly murderous, glanced at each other, and instantly understood each other's identities.
"I'll go to the city and take control of the others."
"I'll go down to the city and open the gates!"
"I'll lead people to the city to cover you!"
In just a few moments, the three of them reached an agreement.
When Li Tong, who had escaped from the city tower, looked at the sky-high fire that was burning on the west side of Xianyang a few miles away, his heart seemed to suddenly burst into flames.
Tonight, it is the time for Wu Li to leave a history book with the same name!
