Chapter 224: Turning Hands into Clouds
Chapter 224 Turning Hands into Clouds
Gimcheon Pass, a checkpoint in the mountainous area of the southeastern part of the Korean Peninsula that divides the dividing line between Silla and Baekje, will soon fall into the hands of Silla, and in the future it will be an important military town for Silla to attack and retreat, all thanks to itself. Jin Lizhi couldn't help but be excited and wanted to look up to the sky and laugh wildly.
Just now, he received a notice from Xun Qianyong, the deputy general of the Tang Dynasty, that he would be evacuated from here tomorrow afternoon, and the Jinquan Pass would be completely taken over by Silla.
"General!" A shout outside interrupted Kim Lizhi's triumphant musings.
"Huh!?" Jin Lizhi raised his eyebrows, and replied dissatisfiedly, he swore that if the guy who came to disturb him didn't give a satisfactory answer to himself, he would let him enjoy his anger.
"General, General Xun Qianyong sent someone over, saying that he had received news that the whole country of Baekje had surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and General Xun Qianyong sent someone to send an invitation, so that all the generals and captains of Silla would come to the banquet, and specially instructed that he would discuss with the general how to divide the land occupied by Silla and the Tang Dynasty." The soldier answered outside.
"Oh!" Hearing this, Kim Riji couldn't help but be surprised by the speed of Baekje's surrender, but soon he thought of the land he could receive, and he believed that he would become the first general of Silla. He would also become one of the most prominent members of the family. However, considering Xun Qianyong's banquet, Jin Lizhi decided to make a good friend of Xun Qianyong. If he wants to gain a foothold in Silla, it is naturally best to find a big backer. If it was in the past, the king of Silla would naturally be the best. But now, as long as you are not an idiot, you know who has the most say in North Korea now, and whose world is in North Korea now.
Jin Lizhi tidied up his clothes, stood up, and instructed his henchmen beside him: "Prepare a generous gift with me!" It was given to General Xun Qianyong, you understand, right? ”
"Yes General, please rest assured!" The henchman who has never disappointed Jin Lizhi responded respectfully.
Xun Qianyong nodded with satisfaction, he knew that this henchman, who was good at handling gifts between the powerful, would allow both him and Xun Qianyong to get a satisfactory answer, and it was because of this that Jin Lizhi would tolerate this ugly-faced guy to stay by his side.
The banquet was held at the Gimcheonguan Garrison Mansion in the evening. However, at dusk, Jin Lizhi and a group of generals had already come to the garrison. If you want to talk to others, you need to come early, be prepared, and lower your posture.
The garrison was decorated with red silk everywhere, full of joy, but I don't know why, the soldiers standing at the door were all fully armed, not only armed with spears, but also wearing Tang knives at their waists, and wearing a light crossbow at their waists. As a soldier, although Jin Lizhi had never seen this kind of crossbow, from the posture of the crossbow, Jin Lizhi knew that this was a delicate light crossbow that could be fired continuously, and it was generally equipped by generals and high-ranking officials to guard against assassins.
However, Jin Lizhi was not allowed to think too much, Xun Qianyong, who was usually not smiling, had already walked out with a smile on his face, Jin Lizhi hurriedly greeted him and was polite with Xun Qianyong, but after a while, the two of them had already walked into the garrison mansion like a pair of old friends.
It didn't take long for everyone to expire before the banquet, and it wasn't completely due, Jin Lizhi found that several of Xun Qianyong's henchmen and generals seemed to have something. However, according to Xun Qianyong, he was sent by him to congratulate the general Li Cunhuan. Jin Lizhi was also relieved when he heard this, after all, congratulating on this kind of thing of being able to show his face in front of the general, he would also send his henchmen to lay a solid foundation for his future promotion, and the most important henchmen would praise themselves in front of the general.
After three rounds of drinking, Xun Qianyong suddenly smashed the wine glass in his hand to the ground, and everyone at the banquet was stunned, I don't know what Xun Qianyong is doing, is he drinking too much? Or do you remember something that touches the scene? actually did such a rude thing, just when Jin Lizhi was thinking about how to tactfully remove the negative impact caused by Xun Qianyong and win Xun Qianyong's favor.
But soon everyone understood why Xun Qianyong would do such a rude thing. I only heard a miserable scream outside, and the palpitating sound of loose strings, Jin Lizhi knew that it was the sound of the crossbow loosening the bowstring, and he was too familiar with it. He looked at Xun Qianyong with a pale face.
I don't know when, six heavily armed soldiers of the Broken Army have already protected Xun Qianyong with tower shields. Everyone hurriedly looked left and right, only to see that they didn't know when, hundreds of sword and axe hands had poured out of the hall where the banquet was held. Many of the axemen's weapons were still stained with blood, and they didn't know that the hapless guy couldn't resist and was killed.
Jin Lizhi hurriedly wanted to stand up, but he only felt that his legs were weak, and he had not yet stood up straight, and he had already fallen down softly. Jin Lizhi's eyes widened, and he glanced at the wine glasses placed on the table, and for a moment he understood what was going on.
"Xun Qianyong! What do you want! Do you want to break the covenant between Silla and Daetang? Jin Lizhi couldn't care about anything else, and he didn't know where the courage came from, so he asked Xun Qianyong loudly.
"The Silla monarch is unreasonable and tyrannical to the people, and I, the Tang Dynasty, should be a teacher of benevolence and righteousness to crusade against the unkind and unrighteous country." Xun Qianyong put away the smile on his face, regained his unsmiling appearance again, and responded coldly.
Jin Lizhi instantly understood what was going on, this time he turned his face, there must be Li Cunhuan's order, Li Cunhuan turned his hand into the cloud, and covered his hand for the rain!
"Li Cunhuan is treacherous! He's going to be damned! Jin Lizhi's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared angrily.
Xun Qianyong shook his head with some pity, and gently spit out a word in his mouth, "Kill!" ”
Jin Lizhi's eyes widened, his mouth opened wide, he didn't know what he was going to say, but his voice hadn't spit out yet, and a sharp Tang knife didn't know when it had cut Jin Lizhi's throat, and Jin Lizhi's mouth only made an unknown sound, and the blood bubbles that kept coming out. The eyes were full of disbelief, and there was a trace of nostalgia for Hongchen.
"Send people to disarm all the Silla army, send troops to imprison all Silla people in the barracks, and only allow half of the food to be supplied!" Xun Qianyong coldly ordered.
"Yes!" The pro-soldier on the side responded
Everyone didn't expect that Li Cunhuan would turn his face at this time, which made all the Silla soldiers at a loss, and only a few hundred people rose up to resist, but their end was that their heads were hung high on the wooden fence of the barracks, attracting countless flies.
The 50,000 Silla army was disarmed by less than 6,000 people, and the Tang army of more than 5,800 people was disarmed, and only a few people were lucky enough to return to Jinseong to inform the Silla king Kim Yao.
