Chapter 14: Coping

The purpose of the other party.

Tang Xidong closed his eyes, and all kinds of speculations flashed through his mind.

There is an army outside the city, after they got false information and mobilized all the troops into Pingyang City, they took the opportunity to attack Luoliang Mountain, from the information transmitted back by Tang Sanxian, Luoliang Mountain has been attacked for a long time, the number of officers and soldiers is about 3,000 people, and the soldiers are elite, which is very different from the previous guard army, carrying a large number of guns and artillery.

It must be an elite border army.

The other party put smoke bombs, let himself transfer his troops into Pingyang City, and then took the opportunity to attack Luoliang Mountain.

From his own point of view, Luoliang Mountain is his own nest, which is naturally more important than Pingyang City.

But from the other party's point of view, Pingyang City and Pingyang City must be more tempting than Luoliang Mountain.

So, why did the other party put Pingyang City instead of attacking, but went to defeat Liangshan?

Not enough people?

What if there are really more than 2,000 spies from Dongchang, Jinyiwei and the border army in the city? The inside and the outside should be combined, and there is also a certain chance of being able to capture Luoliang Mountain.

But obviously, the other party has no such plan, because the information and action time of the hidden spies in the city were revealed to him by the other party on his own initiative.

Perhaps, even the 2,000 people who lurk are nothing.

It seems that only this explanation is in line with the other party's reason that Pingyang City will not attack but attack Luoliang Mountain.

Tang Xidong felt that a layer of fog was covered in front of his eyes, and he couldn't peel it off.

Thinking about it, Tang Xidong couldn't figure it out.

Luoliang Mountain was attacked by officers and soldiers, and the urgency in Tang Xidong's heart made his head unable to concentrate on thinking about things.

But this was the biggest crisis Tang Xidong faced after coming to Daming, and he had to deal with it.

Taking out a pen and paper, Tang Xidong wrote quickly on the table.

After Liu Lianqing, Liu Dagou, and Li Shangquan arrived, what they saw was that Tang Xidong was concentrating on writing, with pages of white paper written all over the room, scattered in the room, and the three of them did not dare to come forward to disturb, although they were full of anxiety, they endured waiting silently.

After a long time, a bright light appeared in Tang Xidong's eyes, and he suddenly looked up at Tang Sanxian who was lying on the bed.

"Tang Sanxian, how many people did you bring with you when you came, and how many officers and soldiers did you intercept on the way?" The voice of the questioner suddenly rose up, breaking the silence in the room.

Tang Sanxian thought for a moment, and replied in a hoarse voice: "At that time, we went out of the mountain to ask for help, and there were about fifty cavalry on the other side, and in the end, only the four of us escaped. ”

Two squads were twenty people, twenty against fifty people, and four escaped.

Tang Xidong became more and more sure of what he thought.

The development of the story is the closest to the most plausible fact only as he envisioned.

If that's the case, then the other party did spend a lot of effort and exhaustion of scheming, but Tang Xidong never minded speculating on the darkness of others with the most sinister heart.

For example, at this time, the pain in his chest reminded him that he had given the most lenient treatment to others, in exchange for almost dying.

From the outside, several figures gathered together in the shadow of the lamp, and after a few moments, a figure walked out of the house and disappeared into the hut of the intelligence bureau.

Li Shangquan left, Liu Lianqing left, Liu Dagou left, Zhang Sanshi also left, and finally Tang Xidong also left, leaving one person behind, that is, Tang Sanxian, who was seriously injured.

————

The sound of dense footsteps and running figures suddenly broke the silence of Pingyang City.

In the middle of the night, the city gate was wide open, and a group of soldiers of the new army carried weapons, and rushed towards the outside of the city without concealment, and an anxious order to speed up the march broke the silence of Pingyang City.

Judging from the number of torches, most of the 10,000 new troops left the city and rushed to the direction of Luoliang Mountain.

Then the gates were closed, and silence fell again.

There are three thousand members of the Luoliangshan Company left, as well as a pair of poisonous wolf-like eyes lurking in the dark.

The ugly time is gone, and the time is coming.

Yinshi, it was a scam set by the other party, but Tang Xidong wanted to return this point in time to the other party.

————

Anning Fang, the residence of dignitaries and nobles in Pingyang City.

The streets are pitch black, and a few lanterns are swaying in the cold wind.

The remaining recruits stood in the streets, silent and vigilant.

Tang Xidong with a large number of guards appeared under the archway of Anningfang, and lit torches to illuminate the entire archway.

Tang Xidong, who took the lead, led people straight to Kangfu.

The Kang family's compound has been besieged by the new army, and the members of the company monitoring the Kang family reported that Kang Xuqian had been at Kang's house and had never gone out.

The door of the peach wood courtyard, the head of the beast with a ring, fell to the ground under the kicking of the new army soldiers.

In the dust, Tang Xidong strode in with a cold face.

In the courtyard, the lanterns were full, the wind blew the lanterns, Kang Xuqian sat alone on the threshold of the main hall, with a carved wine jug at his feet, and the butler was waiting respectfully aside.

Looking up, across the courtyard, the two suddenly looked at each other and smiled in the moonlight.

"Go, move a chair." Kang Xuqian's voice was relaxed and he motioned to the housekeeper.

The originally cowardly rich son and housekeeper completely tore off their disguises in front of Tang Xidong at this moment.

Tang Xidong sat on the chair, took the wine handed by Kang Xuqian, and drank it without hesitation, so Kang Xuqian raised his head and laughed, looking very happy.

"If you didn't kill Tang, Kang Gongzi must be very disappointed, right?" Tang Xidong showed a sneer.

Kang Xuqian shook his head: "Life and death, there are many fates, not by my will, by the will of God." ”

"Fighting geese and being pecked by geese all day long, Kang Gongzi has good acting skills, in my hometown, people like you are very popular." Tang Xidong smiled.

Kang Xuqian shook his head again, took a sip of wine, played with the wine bottle, and looked up at the moon with a trace of trance in his eyes.

"It's all forced, in fact, I really want to be a young master who doesn't care about anything, but unfortunately, the world is unpredictable, and there will always be someone pushing you to stand in front of people."

"Why?" Tang Xidong stared at Kang Xuqian.

"Why? I also want to ask Lord Tang, why? Kang Xuqian's eyes showed a hint of amusement and strangeness, and he seemed to think that Tang Xidong's question was ridiculous.

"The Kang family has accumulated over the years to have this tens of millions of family wealth, you Tang Daren said, all of them are gone, and if they are gone, they will be gone, for me Kang Xuqian, the loss of family wealth is actually nothing, there is always a time when there is no money. But Lord Tang must not know how many generations and how many people's efforts are included in these family wealth. Was my Kang's wealth robbed or stolen? Kang Xuqian smiled on his face, but his eyes were cold.

"Lord Tang must not have seen how my Kang family lived, when I was a child, my grandfather was still there. The small mouth of the rice jar at home can't take out the rice grain, only a small mouth left at the bottom, which flows out little by little. The oil pot is the same as a small mouth, how much is poured with it, all the rice, flour, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar in the family are like this, coarse vegetables and light rice every day, compared to the common people, it is just enough to eat, the family has money and has to prevent famine, and the family will not squander the money in the family, this tens of millions of family wealth is saved from generation to generation, Lord Tang, do you think that with the money of my Kang family, will my ancestors open their eyes underground? ”

"Money is nothing? But what about human life? ”

"Didn't Lord Tang set to go up the mountain to visit his family twice a month? Why did Kang repeatedly not go up the mountain? ”

"You don't need to say it, I also know that my parents are dead, right? Death at the hands of you Tang Xidong, right? ”

The last question was a cry from under the hateful face.

Carved to the ground, fried flowers have a sound!
