Chapter 19: Death in Battle

It is common to see it in King Qi's house, and Cui Jiutang has heard it a few times before......

The brightly dressed King Qi was so eye-catching that he was hit by an arrow as soon as he came out, and was shot directly through the throat by the arrow, and dismounted from his horse, causing a wave of chaos around him.

In the future, when Du Fu writes that poem, will it become "a common sight in the Patriotic Mansion"? History is full of variables.

At this moment, the front army of 10,000 cavalry mutinied, Ge Fushun was beheaded by his generals, his head hung on a spear, and hundreds of his troops put down their weapons and surrendered. Defeat is like a plague, and as long as one person takes the lead, it will spread quickly. Within a while, there were countless surrenderers in the 10,000-horse camp, and the fierce battle calmed down.

"The four sin generals, King Qi, King Xue, Ge Fushun, and Chen Xuanli; The rest of those who are forced to be forced by the officials are not guilty! Someone here kept shouting and rebelling, "Reward for the murderer!" ”

The situation of Lang General Chen Xuanli in the back was also very bad, and the surrounding "brothers" turned into red-eyed enemies in an instant, and slowly surrounded him. "You ......" Chen Xuanli's face was pale, his eyes were full of despair, he understood that the command was no longer there. The so-called water can carry a boat or overturn a boat, and if the soldiers do not listen to him, power will become a floating cloud.

The sword flashed, and with a miserable scream, Chen Xuanli's head fell to the ground.

Of the four people who were convicted, three have died, and finally there is one Xue Wang Li Ye. No one dared to kill him, after all, King Xue was from the Li Tang clan, and ordinary soldiers could kill him, and besides, everyone had an inexplicable awe of people with blood status, and no one dared to do it.

However, no one would listen to King Xue's dispatch, no matter how much he yelled, it would be useless, and everyone stood motionless. This is the case with embattled.

Many weapons were thrown onto the stone slabs ...... the ground. The heavens and the earth suddenly calmed down, and the "squeak" of the torches burning could be heard, accompanied by the faint groans of the wounded soldiers. Occasionally, there was a cough, and the low cry of a war horse.

Xue Chongxun reined in the war horse, wiped the horizontal knife twice on the cloak, put it into the scabbard, and exhaled: "Treat the wounded, whether it is Yulin or Wanqi, after all, are they all their own brothers?" ”

When the soldiers of the Ten Thousand Cavalry Battalion, who were originally worried and panicked, heard this, the atmosphere gradually eased, and everyone began to look for the living people in the pool of blood.

"Traitor!" King Xue scolded helplessly.

Even if he fought against the Taiping Party in the name of the emperor, he ended up like this, and everyone became more and more afraid of that group, the water was too deep...... Only Xue Chongxun and a few other people who participated in the core planning understood in their stomachs that the rise and fall were only in the snap of a finger, and they fought for luck.

Xue Chongxun led the crowd to ride away from Li Ye's side, and the soldiers of the 10,000 cavalry got out of the way one after another, completely unintentional about protecting Li Ye. When he walked in front of him, he saw that Li Ye was still holding a sword in his hand, as if he was going to resist to the end needlessly, but he really had a bit of backbone.

"Give you a chance to apologize...... Cousin. If you are caught, you will die even worse. Xue Chongxun looked at the sword in his hand and said. It is indeed a cousin, who is related by blood, although Li Ye and Xue Chongxun are not familiar at all, and the emperor's family is like that.

"Haha......" Li Ye raised his head and laughed, suddenly kicked the horse's belly, raised his sword and rushed over, and the sword was raised above his head...... Is this swordsmanship? Without any moves or exquisiteness, there is a big gap in his chest.

"Get out of the way!" Xue Chongxun shouted, and the soldiers who defended him did not cut Li Ye to death with a knife. Perhaps, letting Xue Chongxun kill him would die with dignity, after all, Xue Chongxun is also a nobleman.

The war horse rushed to the front, Li Ye came head-on with a sword, Xue Chongxun raised the horizontal knife and casually held it, and with a "bell" sound, Li Ye's body was shocked and leaned back, and he almost fell off the horse, and the war horse passed by.

Xue Chongxun turned the horse's head, shouted, and leaned over, before Li Ye could turn back, the knife flashed, and the blood on the back of his neck flowed like a spray. His body staggered and was about to fall, when he said with his last breath: "With the weapon in hand, it is counted as a ...... death."

The armies were in awe.

"Plop!" The corpse fell off its horse.

Xue Chongxun jumped off the horse, couldn't help his mood, and saluted Li Ye's corpse. He stabbed his knife into the sky and shouted, "Long live the Don!" ”

The love of the army was ignited, and they chanted together, and even the defeated 10,000 cavalry army regained their self-confidence. This is an era of both civil and military affairs, and there is no reason for the Han people not to be confident.

The whole world is not the king's land; Even if knowledge is far away in China, I should seek it.

……

On the upper floor of Chengtianmen City, the three of them met Princess Taiping, the general Chang Yuankai, Zhiyu Lin Li Ci, and Wei Guogong Xue Chongxun. Chang Yuankai said: "Your Royal Highness, the battle situation has been decided, the main force of the left and right ten thousand horsemen will be broken, and the four guilty ministers such as King Qi and King Xue will die." ”

Force is the root of the need for no disguise, and it is clear that at this point, the victory is already doomed. It can be seen that Taiping's face is excited and relaxed, but she didn't say a word more because of this, just tried to suppress her feelings and said, "Has Li Longji found it?" ”

Chang Yuankai said: "Not in the Ten Thousand Cavalry Camp." ”

Taiping said: "Lead the troops to search the Xuanwu Gate." The gates of Chang'an have been under martial law, and he can't fly out. ”

"Yes."

Princess Taiping also ordered: "Convey the elders of the council hall, follow me to Daming Palace." ”

Dispatched, Princess Taiping walked to the arrow tower and looked down on the palace, her calm face looked unfathomable...... Just like white light, it actually encompasses seven colors. Xue Chongxun and the others were behind her, and she said without looking back: "Da Lang, you go to the Fifth Prince's Mansion to search Li Longji and see if he is hiding at home." ”

Xue Chongxun knew in his heart that the search was not the point, the focus was to kill Li Longji's remaining two elder brothers? This matter can't be ambiguous and just guess, he thought for a while and said: "The generals of the regiment under my command don't kill women and children, and I can't force them...... Is it feasible to only kill Li Chengqi and the others? ”

Taiping was noncommittal, and Xue Chongxun hugged his fists and said goodbye.

Walking down the Chengtianmen Tower, he came to the camp of the Flying Tiger Regiment stationed inside the gate, and saw that all the troops were sitting or standing on the ground in a mess to rest. Xue Chongxun said: "Take you to take it easy, when you get to the ground, you can take whatever you like, and kill anyone who doesn't like your eyes." ”

Zhang Wulang and the others were stunned, and sure enough, he said: "Xue Lang, I don't kill women and children, and I can't give orders, otherwise it will be spread to my hometown, and my old mother will have to break my dog's leg." ”

Xue Chongxun said: "Those who kill men will be beheaded!" Get on the horse and go! ”

The whole army went out of Chengtianmen, passed through the outer court, and arrived at Suzaku Street. Standing at the gate of Miyagi, across the street is a row of government and private residences, which are flat and vertical. Chang'an City is structured with "city and square", and the city refers to the east market and the west market, which is a trading market; Fang is equivalent to urban infrastructure such as streets and communities, and there are people in charge.

The location of the Five Princes' Mansion is Xingqingfang, which used to be called "Longqingfang", and in order to avoid secrecy, it has now been renamed Xingqingfang. Walk east from the gate of Miyagi, and pass through the land of three squares, which is the East Market; The location of Xingqing Fang is next to Dongshi, which is located in the northeast of Dongshi.

(Xue Chongxun's Weiguo Mansion is in Anyifang, just south of Dongshi.) )

At this time, the eastern sky has turned white, and although the sky is not bright, if it is normal, the street is already lively...... The ancients went to bed early and woke up early.

But now there is not a single pedestrian on the street, and it is empty, and the moist cool breeze blows up dust and garbage, and the ground is flying all over the ground, which is really desolate.

The spring morning was really a little cold, last night was a night of strenuous activities, sweating all over, at this time quiet, the sweat on the skin was cold, Xue Chongxun couldn't help but feel that his hands and feet were a little stiff. G
