Volume 2 Sui Yang's Accession to the Throne Chapter 124 Breaking Huoyi (2)

In the evening of the same day, a team of dusty cavalry came to the east gate of Huoyi:

"Please open the city gate quickly, we are the personal soldiers of Liu Hongji, the former right servant of the Great Sui, and there is an urgent military situation to ask to see Song Laosheng Song Lao General, please report it quickly. Hurry up, open the door. ”

"Liu Hongji is already my Great Sui rebel general, you must be a spy, I advise you not to leave quickly, otherwise I will release the arrow."

"I really have an important military report, I ask the general to report it quickly, and General Song will definitely have a heavy reward." Maybe it was the word heavy reward that attracted the sergeants who defended the city, so the sergeant on the city tower did not slack off, and hurriedly ran to tell him, Song Laosheng was thinking about the recent movements of the Tang military camp in the mansion, and as soon as he heard that there was news in the Tang army,

"Oh! How many of them are there? ”

"I counted, there were ten of them."

"Bring it in!"

"Yes!"

"You mean that Liu Hongji was imprisoned by Li Yuan because he contradicted Li Shimin, and he has been beheaded, right?"

"Yes! Originally, we thought it was just a period of time, but who knows not long after, Li Shimin said that General Liu disobeyed the military order, and angrily let the generalissimo have an attack of old illness, and asked the generals to say goodbye to him in the tent where he was held, and then they were escorted away by Li Shimin's own soldiers. We couldn't get angry, so we came to the general and begged the general to avenge us. "They said that they have noses and eyes, and Song Laosheng can't see any flaws for the time being. Moreover, during the day, the horse scouting reported that the Tang army retreated ten miles. Song Laosheng was feeling strange.

"Are you saying that Li Yuan was angry with Liu Hongji and vomited blood, and the old disease attacked, do the other generals have any ideas?"

"This matter spread in the camp, and many people said that Li Er was the new official who took office three times and wanted to kill people and establish authority. Grandpa Guo is old and frail, and because of that Li Er's nonsense, chaos has begun to appear in the army, and the army's morale is floating, and we also took advantage of the chaos to escape. Song Laosheng waved them down and ordered someone to send them some food to suppress their shock. Alone in the room, he pondered: 'Is Li Yuan's body really bad?' Therefore, the troops must be withdrawn again and again, and if Li Jiancheng led the troops, maybe the entire Tang army would not have these chaos. ’

At noon the next day, Li Shimin came to Huoyi City single-handedly:

"Jing Nan rebelled against the generalissimo Li Yuan, the governor of the right army and the general of the striker, Li Shimin, asked to see Song Laosheng, General Song Lao, and asked the sergeant in the city to report." When the defenders on the city tower saw it, they didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went to invite Song Laosheng over:

"Why did Second Prince Li come here?"

"Old General Song, I came this time mainly to personally persuade General Song, now that there are traitors in the court, my father just went to King Qin to rescue him, hoping that General Song will raise his noble hand, let our army pass, and establish greater achievements in the future."

"Hahaha! You little hairy child, that day, Li Yuan's old thief was seriously ill and was bedridden, you were stubborn and self-serving, and unjustly killed the general in the army, which has made the army's heart float, I still advise you to enter filial piety in front of your father, I'm afraid he has a short time. Song Laosheng's words angered Li Shimin.

"Old thief, you dare to curse my father, I am inseparable from you." After speaking, he picked up the bow and arrow beside him and shot directly at Song Laosheng, Song Laosheng was originally bullying Li Shimin and was not very old and did not have much precaution, but an arrow came, if it wasn't for the quick eyes of the guards around him, Song Laosheng was pushed away, and the arrow hit a sergeant behind Song Laosheng, and as the arrow deepened, the sergeant was nailed to the city wall.

"Good! It's worthy of being terrifying, but don't think about leaving when you come today, come here! All the soldiers, follow me out of the city to kill the enemy, and capture Li Shimin alive, and reward him heavily. After speaking, he whistled, a group of tall horses with black bodies and no miscellaneous hair ran over, Song Laosheng jumped off the city tower and rode on the horse, and rushed out directly. Seeing that he was about to be caught up, suddenly, a rope crossed between Song Laosheng and Li Shimin, fortunately, Song Laosheng had rich experience in the battlefield and did not trip over the rope, and some of the pro-soldiers behind did not prevent it, and dozens of people were tripped over.

"There is an ambush, everyone be careful!" Before Song Laosheng could finish shouting, the arrows shot like rain.

"Ahhh Most of Song Laosheng's own soldiers were shot dead in a sudden situation.

"Old General Song, Liu Hongji has been waiting here for a long time."

"Liu Hongji!? I understand, the tiger is out of the mountain, the strategy of arrogance, okay! I can't imagine that I, Song Laosheng, have been on the battlefield for half my life, and I have fallen into the plan of you, a small character, it is really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves! Good! Liu Hongji, Li Shimin, come up if you have a kind! The old lady's head is here, take it if you like! ”

"Old General Song, I admire your personality very much, why don't you consider my father's suggestion and go with us to Chang'an Qinwang to escort you." As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Song Laosheng laughed.

"Hahaha! I, Song Laosheng, have been on the battlefield for half my life, I only want to live by standing, not to die on my knees, and you don't talk nonsense. When Liu Hongji heard this, he directly pulled out his knife.

"Old General Song, please advise!" Song Laosheng grabbed Liu Hongji's knife back and forth, and the fight was inextricable, Song Laosheng was a famous general in the world, especially his arms, his strength was outstanding, and the cold weapon was an inch long and an inch strong, Liu Hongji's body had a few more blood marks, Liu Hongji thought to himself that Song Laosheng deserved to be a famous general in the world, and his martial arts were indeed strong, it seems that I am going to die here this time, a distraction, Liu Hongji's move revealed a flaw, was caught by Song Laosheng, and stabbed him directly with a shot, which was about to reach Liu Hongji's throat, Li Shimin couldn't bear it, Seeing Liu Hongji die on the spot, he closed his eyes, suddenly heard a cough, and opened his eyes to see Song Laosheng riding weakly on a horse, and the spear fell to the ground. Liu Hongji looked at Song Laosheng modestly:

"Old General Song, you still surrender!"

"Humph! You, a junior, are also a decent gentleman, but the old man is not feeling well today, so he can't kill you, you can kill the old man! Li Shimin also said from the side:

"Old General Song, since you are not feeling well, please go back to Huoyi first, and how about fighting again when you are well?"

"You don't kill me!"

"Old General Song, if you are not feeling well, go back first! We'll fight again the next day! ”

"Good! The old man respects you all heroes, so he will wait for the old man to recover from his illness and then fight with you for 300 rounds! Leave! After speaking, he turned his horse's head and ran towards Huo Yi. Liu Hongji looked at Li Shimin:

"Eldest prince, Huo Yi is not 。。。。。。。。 there" Li Shimin waved his hand to stop Liu Hongji from speaking, and there was a terrifying sneer on his face. Song Laosheng took the remaining subordinates all the way back to Huoyi City.

"Open the door! I'm back, and I haven't opened the door quickly! ”

"Old General Song, under the command of Generalissimo Li Yuan, under the command of Generalissimo Li Yuan, the wife and brother of the right army governor and forward general Li Shimin, Sun Wuji, this city has been surrendered to our army, Old General Song, you should also surrender! Your righteous sons have already surrendered to my Tang Army, so you should surrender too! Anyway, this city already belongs to us, do you have nothing to explain to the Yang family, and you should spend your old age in peace. An officer beside the eldest grandson Wuji also shouted:

"Father-in-law! I have already led the whole city to surrender, and you will surrender as well, father-in-law! The eldest grandson promised me。。。。。。。 ”

"Shut up, okay! Li Yuan, you have done a good job, my Song Laosheng is ashamed of the saint and the court, since ancient times, loyal ministers have not served the two masters, the emperor, I will go first. After saying that, he dismounted and stabbed the spear into his throat.

"Father-in-law!"

"General!" Song Laosheng's righteous son and his original subordinates all shouted loudly. But it was too late. Song Laosheng's black horse kept wailing beside Song Laosheng, as if calling for his master, and then directly crashed into the city wall of Huoyi. The eldest grandson Wuji saw it.

"Bury the dark horse and the old general Song together, let them live and die together!"
