Li Jing put down his spear, turned over and dismounted, turned back to the generals and said: "Cui Junsu is right, we are Tang Dynasty soldiers, not cold-blooded butchers, we should be clear from wrong, presumably the old brothers underground don't want us to slaughter the Cui family again."

There is a debtor who is wronged, and the Cui family must hand over all the perpetrators this time. ”

Cui Junsu wiped the sweat on his head, nodded and said, "My brother is not away, I have sent someone to recall him, and he will definitely be able to come back within two days, please wait a while." ”

Li Jing waved his hand, "The whole army camped on the spot, the scouts released fifty miles, the northern scouts released a hundred miles, and after discovering Cui Junxuan, they quickly came to report." ”

turned around and smiled at Cui Junsu again: "Master Cui, you must be a smart person, you won't do foolish things, I will only come to capture the culprit with good intentions, if Cui Junsui doesn't come back, if you can't find the murderer."

Hmph, we are all rough people in the army, we don't know any big truths, we only know that one life for one life, the old army of the Tang Dynasty was slaughtered 11,369 people, and the culprit can't be caught, and the children of the Cui family must hand over so many lives. ”

After saying that, they didn't care about the reaction of the Cui family anymore, and all the generals felt relieved, they were still handsome and domineering, so they were not afraid of the murderer running away, and they were not afraid of the other party playing tricks.

The army is camped outside this Qinghe City, staring at it with fierce eyes, while the Cui clan is like Mang is back to the whole clan is uneasy, and outside is a group of cold-blooded butchers, and a bad family will rush in and slaughter them.

As for what you say about holding on to the fortified city? Forget it, the old marshal of the Tang Dynasty is headed by Li Jing, with all the generals participating, is there still an unbreakable city in the world? However, the Cui clan is not a family with martial arts, there are only these two or thirty thousand guards in the clan, and there are only 20,000 in Qinghe City.

Thinking about it, Cui Junsu couldn't do it, so he could only sigh and take the clan to turn around and go back to discuss.

On the official road from Fan Yang to Qinghe, a carriage was rushing rapidly, even if Cui Junxuan knew that his body was deteriorating and he couldn't be so bumpy, he couldn't care about anything else at this time.

"Sir, let the carriages and horses slow down! Your body is almost unable to support it, and if you continue like this, the old slave is afraid that you will not be able to make it home. The butler who followed in the car begged.

After a violent cough, Cui Junqiu's weak voice came, "No, Fan Yang is a three-day journey from Qinghe at most, and the old man can hold on, as the patriarch of the Cui clan, it is already the old man's dereliction of duty that he can't sit at home when the clan is killed and killed."

Now that the family is besieged by a large army, life and death are at stake, and the old man will die even if he dies, and he will die on the way home, otherwise he will not have the face to see his ancestors and ancestors! ”

Cui Junxuan said slowly, sentence by sentence, but it contained an extremely firm meaning, this kind of firmness from the heart, as if telling others that even death could not stop his steps.

When the galloping carriage and horse marched a hundred miles north of the Qinghe River, it would be home in half a day, but it was stopped by a group of soldiers.

The butler got out of the car and yelled, "Who are you waiting for?" Dare to block the carriage and horses of the Cui clan chief? ”

These people are naturally the scouts sent by Li Jing to inquire about the news, and when they saw the style of the carriage and horse, they knew that it was extraordinary, and they stepped forward and asked, okay, it was indeed the target.

"On the order of Li Jing, the Marshal of the Tang Dynasty, I am here to wait for Cui Junxuan, the head of the Cui family!" The lead scout team was shouting.

"Bold, is the name of the head of my Cui family also something that you and other ignorant pawns can call at will? Even Li Jing didn't dare to ......do this here," the butler reprimanded loudly.

The scout soldier on the opposite side was scolded in front of him like this, and he was still the enemy he was looking for, and he wanted to draw a knife and hack the butler in front of him to death.

At this time, a weak voice came from the frame: "Butler, don't be rude!"

Generals, the old man Cui Junxuan, is now galloping back to see Wei Guogong, you can't delay here, how about you do it? ”

The team was pondering for a moment, thinking in their hearts that this old man was also the head of the family, and he couldn't do it casually, so the marshal told him to return immediately.

"Little Five, return the handsome quickly.

Master Cui, I am rude, military affairs are on my body, and I will escort you on a long journey. ”

The team is also doing things strictly, sending people to report the news, and he himself also followed in person.

"There is labor!"

Half a day later, when Cui Junqiu's carriage and horses arrived outside Qinghe City, Li Jing's 25,000 soldiers and horses were already in full array, and a group of people from the Cui family in Qinghe City also arrived to welcome the head of the family home with a big gift.

When the carriage arrived, the housekeeper lifted the curtain, and Cui Jun walked down tremblingly with a cane.

"The old man, Cui Junxuan, the head of the Cui family, I don't know why Wei Guogong is here?" Speaking of spirit, Cui Junxuan stood in front of the Cui clan and said loudly to Li Jing, at this time, the demeanor of the head of the family was fully displayed.

Li Jing pressed a group of generals behind him who were about to step forward to make a move, and came out to salute: "Cui Junxuan, this marshal has come to seek justice for the more than 10,000 souls of my Tang old army."

Your Qinghe Cui clan will join the Li clan in Longxi to slaughter countless dart bureaus in the northern land, and eighty percent of them are the retirement and shelter we found for the old army of the Tang Dynasty, and they were ruthlessly slaughtered by you.

Today, Ben Shuai came with all the generals to seek justice from you.

I don't know if you can plead guilty to this? ”

Cui Junxuan knew that he had heard about it as early as the Lu family, Luoyang caught the live mouth and confessed, and at the same time angered the court and the green forest, and his favorite grandson Cui Jun was assassinated because of this.

At this time, looking up again, more than 20,000 troops in the distance were unsheathed with their swords, overflowing with murderous aura, and more than 100 generals looked at each other angrily, as if they wanted to choose people to eat, and not far from Li Jing was a group of captured death row prisoners, needless to say, these are the living mouths of Luoyang who were arrested.

Cui Junsui smiled lonely, looked back at his younger brother Cui Junsu, Cui Junsu had tears in his eyes, and sighed lightly: "Brother, you, confused!" ”

Cui Junsui shook his head silently, turned to Li Jing and shouted: "Yes, this matter is indeed done by me Cui Junsui at the behest of five thousand dead soldiers, and it is not inappropriate for Duke Wei to come and ask me for it." ”

"Ah!!

Death to the old man!

Soldiers, rush up and kill the group of murderers of the Cui family! Wei Chigong shouted.

"Wait, what Wei Guogong said, the old man confessed, but there is a debtor and a master, this matter was done by me Cui Junsui and five thousand dead soldiers, and others have no observation, and these people behind me don't know.

The old man can hand over the remaining more than 1,000 people among the murderers, but ask Wei Guogong to distinguish between right and wrong and let go of the innocent people behind the old man. Cui Jun made a big bow and bowed to Li Jing.

Li Jing's old face was also full of murderous energy, and he shouted angrily: "As the patriarch of the Cui clan, you led the crowd to commit murder, and the national law is intolerable, although the Cui clan people did not participate, but the law has the responsibility to sit together, and they can't escape!" ”

"Wei Guogong, we voluntarily surrendered, and we couldn't cause trouble to our wives and children, why should we force each other hard?" Cui Junqiu shouted.

The crowd of the Cui clan behind him was excited, "Patriarch, don't ask this group of cold-blooded butchers, the Cui clan has no bad seeds!" ”

"Shut up, the old man, as the patriarch, has the right to make a decision at this time, and he has to say more about this matter, and those who dare to disobey the order will be expelled from the Cui family." Cui Junqiu's crutches shook and shouted at the clansmen behind him.

He turned around again and said: "Wei Guogong, according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, those who kill the whole family will be punished, and the old man promised you to hand over all the family members related to the murderer to be punished, but please don't slaughter the Cui family's innocent today, okay?"

All the blame is the old man's ghost, and I, the head of the family, bear it alone, and I hope that the court will remember that the children of the Cui family have been loyal to the country for many years, and it is okay to leave me with a trace of incense? ”

Cui Junqiu actually knelt down directly for Li Jing.

Seeing his brother so low-voiced, Cui Junsu stepped forward angrily, pointed at Li Jing and shouted, "Li Jing, are you really so ruthless?

The Cui family has been inherited for thousands of years, and in the more than ten years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the disciples of the Cui family have been protecting the people all over the country.

We've already given in like this, and you're going to kill them all?

If it is true that you slaughter my Cui clan today, the Cui clan people in all parts of the Tang Dynasty will be in turmoil in the future, and then the whole country will be in turmoil, and you Li Jing will be the sinner of the entire Tang Dynasty! ”

This......

As soon as these words came out, all the generals were silent, what the other party said was reasonable, and it was because of this that the family could not move lightly.

Although many generals still think that they should not be coerced by this, Li Jing, as the commander and the right hand of the Tang Emperor, has been an official and politician for many years, and of course the pros and cons are the first to weigh the pros and cons.

"Alright! Thinking that the Cui clan and the clansmen are contributing to the country, the old man is open today. Li Jing said loudly, nodding secretly in his heart, being able to hand over the prisoner's family and not leave the Tang Dynasty with future troubles also fulfilled the original intention of the punishment of sitting together - cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.

"Dashuai, no!

The Cui family ruthlessly wiped out our old brothers, and we must destroy them in order to rest the souls of our brothers! Many generals cried.

Li Jing waved his hand to stop the generals and continued to speak: "Although this is the case, the Cui family's trip is intolerable, and you should have been strangled in the chaos, but you are also innocent, and I promise you to make up for your mistakes."

The old army of the Tang Dynasty was slaughtered 11,369 people this time, many of them still have small families, and you must make compensation for their future.

In addition to handing over the culprit Cui Junxuan, 5,000 dead soldiers and their families, 11,369 people must be compensated with 300 taels of silver for each family as a funeral expense pension.

I can't do it at all, Ben Shuai is no longer polite, the Tang soldiers are robes for each other, and it is also natural to slaughter your Qinghe for revenge today!

As for the chaos in the world? Even if I come, I will wait for the battlefield to cross for half my life, even if I come again to calm the troubled times, why not? ”

Although Li Jing is old, he is full of pride, and at this time, he is arrogant, and the voice of righteousness echoes between heaven and earth, and many people are shocked.

"Fight!"

Twenty-five thousand Tang soldiers and more than 100 Tang generals shouted in unison.

Cui Junsu complained bitterly in his heart, three hundred taels per person, more than 10,000 people are more than three million, it seems that the Cui family will not only lose thousands of lives this time, but also dismantle the family to buy lives for this reason.

Even so, he had to agree, Li Jing had already spoken, and there was no room for bargaining.

Walking out of the crowd, Cui Junsu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Qinghe Cui agreed, pleaded guilty and accepted punishment this time! ”

Cui Junxuan seemed to be ten years old in an instant, he was originally a person in his sixties and seventies, but at this time he was already in his eighties.

Mustering up all the strength of his body, he threw away the crutches in his hand as if he were returning to the light.

Turning to face the people of the Cui clan, Cui Junqiu regained his vigor again and shouted, "Cui clan people!

It's my patriarch Cui Junxuan who has burdened everyone, I'm ashamed of everyone, ashamed of my ancestors!

From now on, Cui Junsu stepped down as the patriarch and passed it on to Elder Cui Junsu. ”

stepped forward, took off the jade pendant representing the patriarch, handed it to his younger brother Cui Junsu, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Second brother, you are right, you ruined the Cui clan for the fault of your brother, and I regret that I shouldn't mention that Bai Fan!"

Remember, the Cui family has since retired, and must not have a heart of revenge, the thousand-year-old family has always pursued not a temporary glory, but a long-term survival.

Qinghe Cui's family, from now on depends on you. ”

"Brother......" Cui Junsu stretched out his hand to grab Cui Junsu.

But Cui Junqiu turned around and came towards Li Jing without looking back.

Striding into the middle of the field, Cui Junqiu shouted: "The sinner Cui Junqiu came to receive the guilt and die, which general came up to execute?" ”

Li Jing looked at the old man, and also knew his intentions, looked back at the generals, and nodded at Qin Shubao.

Although anyone can come at this time, Qin Shubao has a word first, and only this god of war Qin Shubao, who is a god of war who is full of military exploits and body protection, can kill the patriarch of the Cui clan in public without fear of retaliation.

Flashing out, Qin Shubao took off the cooked copper mace on the horse, and said loudly: "The general Qin Qiong, with the imperial gift of the Emperor Taishang to beat the king's golden mace, today represents the Tang Dynasty military to avenge the innocent slaughtered Tang veterans!" ”

"It is the glory of the old man to be executed by the Tang God of War!"

Qin Shubao's footwork unfolded, all his skills exploded, and he raised the golden mace and slashed at Cui Junqiu's head, and in the stunned eyes of everyone, he actually smashed Cui Junqiu's move, not only his head was broken, but even his body was broken into pieces, which shows that Qin Qiong's skills have increased qualitatively in recent years.

Everyone in the Cui clan shouted in unison.

On the side of the Tang sergeants, under the leadership of Li Jing, they all dismounted, saluted towards the sky, and shouted: "The great revenge has been avenged, and the heroic soul rests in peace!" ”

Li Jing took 25,000 people, escorted more than 10,000 prisoners with guilt sent by Cui's family, and the pension money taken out by Cui's smashing pots and selling iron, and returned to Chang'an in a mighty way.

Chang'an Bai Fan listened to the report quietly, nodded and sneered, is it the end when Cui Junsui is dead?

The Cui family? This is just the beginning, send someone to inform Liu Busy, if he doesn't make a move, he won't be able to drink the soup.

This chapter is two in one, and there is another chapter in the evening.
