Chapter 375: in the same room
"Li Minghe, I think you were a member of the imperial court back then, and you were once a Yang Wei alien, even if you are often outdated, you can't hide your flaws, but I didn't expect that you were willing to fall and join these pickled people, don't you feel ashamed of your parents and ancestors, and ashamed of your brothers who lived and died with you back then? Acquaintances, put down the weapon, afterwards a certain can ask the court for you, even if it is inevitable to die, it will not affect your parents, wives and children, otherwise, today this Yangzhou city is your burial place, you die is a trivial matter, but to affect your wife and children, do you think about this cost-effective? ”
After leading his soldiers to take the opportunity to attack the Tiandao rebels, Chen Guotai did not personally lead the troops, but drove his horse to a place not far from Li Minghe, and shouted at him.
According to the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, there are only three Zhichong Mansions in the south of the Yangtze River, except for the Zhichong Mansion in Yuezhou, the remaining two Zhichong Mansions are stationed in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Chen Guotai and Li Minghe are the governors of these two Zhichong Mansions.
Therefore, for Li Minghe's counterjudgment, Chen Guotai felt a little pity in addition to chagrin, which is why he came alone to persuade him to surrender at this time.
The appearance of Chen Guotai's ambush army completely disrupted the offensive of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and at the same time, the victory that was originally within reach also changed, among which Li Minghe was the hardest hit.
"Hahaha, I thought who was so strong, I actually led the troops to copy the back road of XX, it turned out to be Brother Chen, it is worthy of General Pei's praise for Brother Chen, but unfortunately, the will of God is difficult to disobey, and I also know that it is impossible to retreat tonight, and if I can fight with Brother Chen at the last moment, I can be regarded as a well-deserved death." Li Minghe slowly took off the helmet on his head and said with a wry smile.
"Li Minghe, do you really have to resist to the end, what will happen to the imperial court when it treats traitors, you should be clear, don't you think about your wife and children, and don't think about your Li family?" Seeing that Li Minghe was still stubborn, Chen Guotai said angrily.
"Family, ancestors, forget it, Brother Chen thinks that after today's defeat, can a certain wife and children still live, since a certain surrender is death, not surrendering is also death, it is better to fight him before dying, not to be able to live for a hundred years, it is better to leave a stench for 10,000 years, if Brother Chen really thinks about something, don't talk nonsense, when the time comes, give someone a pleasure, and be grateful." Li Minghe still said flatly.
Hearing Li Minghe's words, Chen Guotai also knew that his death intention had been decided, and persuasion had no effect, so he could only sigh helplessly, and then drove his horse backwards, saying as he walked, "Since this is the case, then let us have a good fight, life and death have their own destiny." ”
.........................
Although Yangzhou City is famous, it is actually not very big, because of its proximity to the Yangtze River and the Grand Canal, it is not even as good as a small county town in the north.
It's just that this originally small Yangzhou City, at this moment, in the eyes of Feihu and others, it is like an endless labyrinth, from the time they entered Yangzhou City, they were attacked, as if they had entered a place full of traps, there were traps everywhere, there were traps everywhere, and the Heavenly Dao Sect soldiers who were originally behind him were also constantly injured and damaged in the middle, and finally, when they came to an alley, there were only a hundred and ten guards left around them, even so, The guards were also in disarray, and many were even wounded.
"Yan Ming, how could this be........ How can this be, aren't the Tang troops already out of the city, aren't they already surrounded by Li Minghe waiting to be encircled, why are there still so many Tang troops in this city, how could they arrange these traps and traps in advance, could it be that you really colluded with them to bring us into this trap. ”
Because he was too scared and angry, Yu Feihu already had a feeling of being in a hurry, and when he felt that his future was hopeless, he finally vented all his anger on Yan Ming.
"Wronged..... Wronged, prison army, villain wronged, you also saw it, those organs and traps just now don't know, you see, just for you, the villain's arm was almost broken, if all this is really done by the villain, how can the villain even get into it, there is no such stupid spy in this world! Yan Ming immediately argued.
Hearing Yan Ming's argument and looking at Yan Ming's soft tata drooping arm, Yu Feihu also regained some senses, let go of his grip on Yan Ming's arm, and muttered, "Since you are not a spy, why has it been so long, we have not yet arrived at the Assassin Shi Yamen, but have been encountering traps and traps, isn't this intentional by you?" ”
"Supervising the army Mingjian, it's not that the small one deliberately leads the wrong way, but the small one really doesn't know the path!" Yan Ming cried.
"You still dare to quibble, you don't know the path, you have been to Yangzhou City before, and you actually told someone that you have never been to Yangzhou City, so quibble, you dare to think that you are not a spy." A henchman of Yu Feihu jumped out and angrily reprimanded Yan Ming.
"No, it's not like this, please listen to the small explanation, yes, the small one has been to Yangzhou City before, but it was caught by the Tang Army, after coming in, the small ones are all on the big road, but we just went all the way, and they are all remote alleys, in this case, how can the small know the correct route, in this case, the small one can walk out of a general direction is already good." Yan Ming quibbled.
It's just that although Yan Ming is quibbling, it is ironclad evidence in the ears of Feihu and others, even if some people are still suspicious of Yan Ming, there is no direct evidence to prove that Yan Ming is a spy.
"Okay, you said that you were wronged, so I will give you a chance to prove you now, within a stick of incense, if you take us to find the Assassin Yamen, even if you are wronged, otherwise, don't blame you for being unkind, come here, press him to go, let him walk in the front and show us the way." Yu Feihu said.
Yan Ming, who was full of chagrin, was escorted by several guards and walked to the front of the team, although he didn't say it, he sneered in his heart, and secretly thought, "You damn dogs, you dare to treat your little master like this, and when you get to the ground, I will let you know, what is called why is the flower so red, it is milk, this time I really miscalculated, in order to gain the trust of that dog thing, I almost faked it, in case I died in those traps and traps, but it will be completely cheap Duan Jian's house, no, I must ask him to raise the price for me when I go back this time, otherwise it will be too much of a loss this time. ’
Such an idea, I'm afraid that only Yan Ming's nervous brain can think of it, if the Heavenly Dao Sect people around him know his thoughts, let alone hack him to death, Ling Chi will not feel relieved to be executed.
For the sake of his own life, Yan Ming did not lead the way indiscriminately this time, but took Yu Feihu and others to think about the assassination of Shi Yamen, and after several turnovers, he saw that the original dark path changed violently, and a bright light came from afar, and under the illumination of the light, you can clearly see the four golden characters on the black lacquer plaque "Yangzhou Mansion Ya".
...........................
"Bang ....."
"Bang Bang Bang ......."
"Kill, kill, kill.........."
With guns like a forest and a shield like a wall, the most brutal and tragic battle outside Yangzhou finally began.
I don't know if it is to destroy the opponent as soon as possible or to pay attention to the opponent, Chen Guotai and Li Minghe have used their strongest assistants, that is, the Zhichong Mansion soldiers trained by them under their respective commands.
The same tactics, the same equipment, but the brothers who used to kill the enemy side by side, today they have become opponents for their own masters.
The shields of the wall slammed together, and Rulin's spear stabbed at the other party fiercely, and every time he withdrew it, he could take away a handful of blood from the other party, which also meant that a life was gone in the blink of an eye.
"The shieldman blocks the opponent's attack, the spearman attacks, and the axe hand comes forward to attack."
Although the two sides used the same weapons and fought in exactly the same way, but after the real battle, there was a quick difference between who was stronger and which was weaker, and in the face of the imposing Chen Guotai army, the morale of the generals under Li Minghe's command was obviously insufficient, and they soon showed a weak trend.
Of course, Li Minghe's side showed its decline so quickly, not that they were really inferior to Chen Guotai's side, but that this army had been fighting for more than a month.
Secondly, it is also the idea of resistance of these soldiers, they were originally the most elite soldiers of the Tang Army, but now they have embarked on the road of rebellion because of Li Minghe, and for all generations, the imperial court has punished the rebels the most severely, and the nine clans of Zhulian are commonplace, so how can they not be defeated.
In desperation, Li Minghe could only change the formation in advance, changing from an offensive posture to a relatively stable defensive posture.
Li Minghe's idea is good, but he forgot that the law on the battlefield is that the power is unforgiving, seeing that Li Minghe's side was beaten by himself and became a turtle with a shrunken head, the soldiers on Chen Guotai's side not only did not plan to accept it when they saw it, but boldly launched an attack on Li Minghe's side.
"Sososo"
Sharp arrows galloped, after the sharp arrows, followed by the iron armor, the shield army marching neatly in the queue, it seemed that the pace was not fast, but in the blink of an eye, they had already arrived in front of Li Minghe's queue, under the attack of the rain of arrows, many soldiers in Li Minghe's queue fell to the ground and died, taking advantage of this kung fu, the soldiers of Chen Guotai's side quickly broke into their array.
In the blink of an eye, the originally compact array was broken up.
"Huh, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, my life is going to be over, this army is going to be over, Ding Mian is finished, Tiandaojiao, I'm afraid it's also completely finished, hahaha, I didn't expect that I, Li Minghe Hero I, would end up like this, sad, sad, fortunately, I died on the battlefield, so I deserved to die!"
When the array was destroyed, Li Minghe, who was extremely nervous before, couldn't help but close his eyes, and only after a long time did he raise his head and laugh.
"Huh, I finally won, I didn't live up to Duan Dudu's entrustment, and finally won the battle, but it's a pity that Li Minghe, such a fierce general, did not die on the battlefield of fighting with foreign races, but died in the hands of his own people, it is really sad and lamentable."
Compared with Li Minghe's loss, Chen Guotai had a sense of relief, defeating Li Minghe and the Zhichong Mansion army under his command, which also meant that the core of the entire Tiandao Sect rebels was completely disintegrated, and although the remaining Tiandao rebels were numerous, they were worthless in Chen Guotai's eyes, just a group of rabble.
"Whoever comes, pass the order, and all rebels who are willing to disarm and surrender must not be killed." Chen Guotai ordered.
................
"It's here, it's here, it's finally here, it's good, it's good, it's good, Yan Ming, this time you have made another contribution, and after pacifying the remnants of the city, you will definitely be rewarded with all kinds of rewards." Looking at the Yangzhou Thorn Mansion that appeared in front of him, Yu Feihu couldn't help but say excitedly, at this time, he also forgot his previous idea of suspecting that Yan Ming was a spy.
"Thank you for the grace of the prison army, now that the city is chaotic, the prison army should be able to move into the Assassin's Mansion soon, so as to stabilize the morale of the army." Yan Ming pretended to be flattering and said.
"Yes, yes, let's go in quickly, so that we can stabilize the morale of the army as soon as possible." Hearing Yan Ming's words, Yu Feihu replied as he walked towards the Assassin's Mansion.
"One step, two steps........"
Dozens of steps away, Yu Feihu and the others arrived outside the gate of the Thorn History Mansion in the blink of an eye, looking at the closed gate of the Thorn History Mansion, Yu Feihu showed a satisfied and understanding expression on his face, Xiang was angry but not so obvious, like yearning but a little more hideous.
"Someone, open the door."
Yu Feihu gave an order, and several guards quickly stepped up the steps, raising their hands to open the closed door, and at this moment, an accident happened.
I heard a "creaking" sound, and the closed door suddenly opened.
With the sound of the door opening, a sound came from inside.
"Zi said, 'There are friends from afar, don't you say it!' It's a pity that the people who came outside the door were uninvited evil guests, which really made it difficult to entertain, dare to ask who was outside the door, and please report your name, so you can be prepared and treat you well. ”
Although there were lanterns shining at the entrance of the yamen, the sudden sound and the quietly open door made Yu Feihu and the others couldn't help but get goosebumps, and the original smug mood was a little more apprehensive.
"What the hell are you, a human or a ghost, hurry up and give it to so-and-so, otherwise, don't blame so-and-so for being polite."
