Chapter 4: Gancheng (6 I)
Yang Guang's sword and Laihu'er's official authority played a far greater role in the imperial battalion than it did to the soldiers of the Xiongwu battalion. Especially when it was discovered that Laihu'er and Yuwenshi were still followed by 5,000 reinforcements, many of the soldiers of the imperial camp took the initiative to lay down their weapons and let go of the camp gate that they had to defend a quarter of an hour ago.
The brothers of the Xiongwu Battalion let out a cheer and swarmed in. "The emperor has promised to administer justice to everyone, and General Yuwen wants to kill his relatives in righteousness!" The brothers who arrived quickly spread the good news to the robes who had blocked the gate of the imperial camp. Despite a bit of distrust, Qin Xingshi took the initiative to return the command of the soldiers and horses. With Yang Guang's sword of heaven and the personal guarantee of Lai Hu'er, he couldn't help but choose not to compromise.
"You and Captain Cui led the brothers in the headquarters to surround the imperial camp, and without my order, if you escape, you will kill one of them!" Yu Wenshi glanced at Qin Xingshi, and deliberately raised the command by a few points. It was important to appease the army, and as for whether Qin Xingshi's previous actions violated military discipline, he didn't have time to investigate.
"Governor Zhang, you order five hundred brothers to go into the camp with me to get people, and if there are disobedient people, you will be killed!" Aside from Cui Qian and Qin Xingshi, Yu Wenshi turned his head to Zhang Xiu again, his eyes full of anticipation. He needs the latter's full cooperation, and whether the Yuwen family can survive the current hurdle depends on whether Zhang Xiu will do it.
Living up to his hints, Zhang Xiu tried his best to point out those who had little to do with the Yuwen family and were extremely loyal to his own coach. Among them, more than 40 people even recruited children from their hometown by Zhang Xiu himself. They are all inspired by the stories of Li Xu and Zhang Xiu, who came to the army to seek fame. They had seen the general's brocade robe, but they had not seen the blood stains and dirt hidden under the brocade robe.
"Come to the old general, please take the sword of the Son of Heaven into the camp and announce His Majesty's will!" After Zhang Xiu calmly sorted out the formation, Yu Wenshi and Xianglai Hu'er hugged their fists, and then made a gesture of please.
"Hmm. That's good! Laihu'er nodded, and strode into the depths of the imperial camp. Seeing the Son of Heaven Sword in his arms, many officers took the lead in kneeling. According to the marks on the armor of the people in the battalion, Zhang Xiu ordered people to put up those who were higher than the lieutenant one by one and put them at the end of the line.
Seeing Yu Wenshi and personally leading the army into the camp to arrest people, Huahe and Zhi and his brothers suddenly lost their backbone. They knew that the general trend was gone, so they didn't dare to use their arms as a car, and obediently opened the incense case in the Chinese army.
"According to the report of the loyal soldiers, Yu Wenhua and the Zhi brothers colluded with individual imperial generals to sell grain to the enemy. The Holy Lord decreed that the Governor of the Water Division came to protect the children, the commander of the Xiongwu Battalion, the Yuwen Scholars, and captured all those implicated, and immediately escorted them into the palace for personal interrogation by His Majesty! Lai Hu'er neatly relayed Yang Guang's message, held the sword of the Son of Heaven with both hands, and raised the country high above his head.
"Impossible, didn't my father ask for mercy in front of His Majesty?" Yuwen Zhihe was so frightened that his body went soft, and the whole person collapsed in front of the incense case. Before he could continue to quibble, his voice was immediately swallowed up by a large number of shouts of injustice, "Wronged, come to the old general, we don't know!" "I was wronged!" The other gentlemen who were mixed in the army to make a name for themselves immediately lost their domineering energy when chasing and killing Zhao Ziming, and they cried one by one and grabbed the ground, howling endlessly.
"Since Your Majesty said that he would interrogate him personally, naturally he would not wronged an innocent!" Lai Hu'er really couldn't get used to seeing the nests of these nephews, so he snorted coldly, put the sword of the Son of Heaven on the incense case, and turned around to leave the account. took the opportunity to send it to the door and hit the Yuwen family hard, which really made him feel happy. But since Yu Wenshi and can still gain Yang Guang's trust, Lai Hu'er doesn't want to do things too much. So he deliberately took the first step, so as not to embarrass both parties by witnessing the Yuwen brothers killing each other.
"Tie up all the people above the captain and escort them into the palace. The others are locked up in the camp and ready to be arraigned! Yu Wenshi's face was as cold as ice, and the voice that came out of his throat was not half emotional. Hearing the order of the commander-in-chief, Zhang Xiu led people to quickly pounce, and pulled up the generals who were still lying on the ground and shouted grievances one by one, and tied them with ropes.
"Wronged. We have been wronged! More than 20 captains, more than a dozen generals, lieutenants, and soldiers all burst into tears. They didn't dare to resist, and let Zhang Xiu's own soldiers tie themselves up and lead them out of the Chinese army. Someone walked a little slowly, and was immediately punched and kicked by the brothers of the Xiongwu Battalion.
"Let you hack Captain Wu to death!" "Let you hunt down Zhao to join the army!" "Let you wear better armor than we do!" Many people took the opportunity to declare personal vendetta and beat the abductees to the point that their noses were blue and their faces were swollen.
Seeing that his colleagues around him were kidnapped one after another, Yu Wen Zhihe was scared in his heart, took a few steps forward, and hugged Yu Wen Shiji's legs, "Second brother, second brother help." I know it's wrong, and I'll never dare again! β
Hearing his brother's cry, Yu Wenshi couldn't hold his face anymore, and tears rolled down. "You know it's wrong! The entire Yuwen family was miserable by the two of you. Grandpa is still making amends in front of His Majesty at this time, how can this crime of betraying the country and seeking glory be forgiven casually! β
Yu Wenzhi and Ping Su hated their second brother the most, and they didn't dare to talk back at the moment, just hugged each other's thighs and cried vigorously. Yu Wenhua was very single, stepped forward and pushed him, and scolded loudly, "What are you crying for, if you cry, will he have the courage to help you?" The two of us are dead, and he is the only one left in the Yuwen family, and if he doesn't fall into the well now, you should recite the Buddha, and you are delusional that he will come to save you! β
"Where did the eldest brother say, I just heard this, and I can't wait to use my life to apologize for the two of you!" Yu Wenshi wiped away his tears and choked up his defense.
"In fact, in the end, it was you who came to arrest the two of us! The eldest husband is responsible for doing things alone, except for Zhiji and me, as well as a few relatives of our Yuwen family, no one else is involved in this matter. Just take me two and send me on an errand, don't embarrass my brothers! Yu Wenhua refused to listen to his brother's explanation, turned his hands behind his back, and strode in front of Zhang Xiu, "Tie it up, Governor Zhang." Congratulations on another great achievement! β
"How much offense will be made in the end!" Zhang Xiu first saluted Yu Wenhua, and then personally held a rope and stood behind the confessor. His stature was nowhere near as tall as Yu Wenwen's, and he almost had to lift his feet to straighten the rope. At the moment when he passed the rope through Yu Wenhua and under his armpits, Zhang Xiu muttered to Yu Wenhua and his ears in a very low voice: "Uncle Mao instigated, Zheng Lulu led the line." You're just being deceived! β
After that, he quickly withdrew his head from Yu Wenhua and his ears, and shouted at everyone: "Everyone just escaped death, it stands to reason that Zhang should not embarrass you." But the order is in the body, and I dare not disobey it. Rest assured, the emperor has a wise man. Everyone saw him, although he told the truth, don't climb around! β
"Hmph, you think we're the folk shrew!" Yu Wenhua snorted coldly and strode towards the tent door. At the moment of turning, he stepped heavily on Zhang Xiu with the heel of his boot.
Pain surged into Zhang Xiu's head along with ecstasy, and he knew that Yu Wenhua understood his own hints. handed over the errand of tying up other generals to a lieutenant under his command, and walked into another leather tent behind the side of the Chinese army with his absolute descendants.
In the special discussion tent of the Yuwen family, the henchmen of several families are in chaos. Seeing Zhang Xiu entering, they immediately surrounded him. "Governor Zhang, you have to tell the second son, let him save the world!" Yu Wenhua's distant uncle, who is also his personal aide Yu Wenmao, took the lead in speaking. Because he usually walks around frequently, he is very familiar with Zhang Xiu, and knows that the other party is a cronie who is personally subdued by the head of the family, and can be used as a backup at a critical moment.
"Whisper, don't let anyone outside hear you. Grandpa Guo was left as a hostage by the emperor, and the second prince was not easy to act rashly. He asked me to ask you, what the hell is going on? Who is involved? How many people know the details? Zhang Xiu looked around cautiously, first ordered his cronies to hold the tent, and then asked in a very low voice.
"It's a long story, at first everyone thought that they couldn't hold here, so they were ordered by Grandpa Guo to find a way out for their own family!" Yu Wenmao didn't dare to hide it, and reported in a voice the size of a gnat.
"To make a long story short, it's just our family. What about the other ministers of the DPRK and China? Zhang Xiu frowned and urged.
"Ten peace orders were changed at the beginning. Lord Pei took the lead, and Lord Yu also had a share. But they are cunning and cunning, and they don't send their henchmen to participate in specific transactions. Later, when the second son entered the city, they advised everyone to stop. But the price offered by the Turks is really tempting, and the third prince can't resist it......."
"Ridiculous, if the Turks ask you to open the gates, you will do the same? Such a big thing, why didn't you know that the second son would be met? We can't even take care of it! Despite guessing in advance, Zhang Xiu was shocked by the deal. Pei Lian, Yu Shiji, plus a Yuwen Shu, these three people are all the leading figures in the Great Sui civil and military forces in front of them, the dry city of the country. But in the face of danger, what they thought of was how to sell the Great Sui in exchange for their own safety.
He felt a chill in his heart, but he had to have a kind smile on his face. This was the stunt that Yu Wenshu personally "taught" to him, and the day he was lured to reveal the relationship between his mentor Yang Fuzi and Li Xu, Yu Wenshu had the same smile on his face, and he looked the same trustworthy.
"Where? Let's just sell things, not open the gates! Yu Wenjie, another distant relative of the Yuwen family, saw Zhang Xiu's confident appearance, and he was in a calm mood, and replied with a hippie smile. The lord and the prince were also kind at first, and they were ready to leave a way for everyone to live. As for the second son and you, the lord specially told him, saying that the second son is too kind-hearted to do these things! β
"Alas, let the second son and me know earlier, and there won't be such a big mess. How did the people of the Xiongwu Battalion know about the situation and what evidence was stolen? Zhang Xiu stomped her feet and complained in frustration.
"It's an account book, which was supposed to be destroyed, but I don't know where the people in the Xiongwu camp got the news, and they dared to come to the door to steal it. However, they didn't take advantage of anything, more than 20 people came, and only three escaped alive! β
"It's a hassle to run away from one. Uncle Jie, you go and find all the people in our family who know, everyone pretend to be my personal soldiers in this leather tent, and when Laihu'er goes away, I will take you away quietly! β
"Shizi has always been careful in doing things, and almost everyone who knows is here. There are also a few small soldiers, confused, and they can't say why they are caught. Captain Zhang couldn't worry about them. Yu Wenmao took over the conversation and took the initiative to report. If you can escape from the imperial camp, you won't have to worry about finding a way to live. The acquaintances of the Yuwen family are all over the world, and they go out to hibernate for a while, and when they come back, they are still arrogant.
"In that case, everyone is ready to change their clothes. Uncle Jie, there is a brigade leader named Zheng Xin among the guards, you also find him, and the second son specially ordered to take him with him! Zhang Xiu nodded and said again.
"I'll go right away, General Xie Zhang bothered!" Yu Wenjie agreed again and again, and walked out of the tent. "Zhang Xiu, this kid knows the likeness, and it is not in vain that the old man cultivated him once." Thinking triumphantly, he walked to the military tent of his own soldiers, called out the anxious brigade leader Zheng Xin, and pulled him to find Zhang Xiu to recover his life.
"What is Inspector Zhang looking for me?" Zheng Xin, the brigade leader, looked dazed and asked suspiciously. He was just an ordinary pro-soldier brigade leader, not a confidant of Yu Wenshi, and he had never been involved in the secret affairs of the family. Just now came to Hu'er into the camp to arrest people, and all the low-level soldiers hid in the military tent. As a small brigade leader, he also stayed honestly in his camp, lest he be burned by the slightest accident.
Many of the misfortunes that come and go often do so without any warning. "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, the second son personally ordered you!" Yu Wenjie replied proudly, and at the same time quickened his pace. How many people can be favored by the second son, how many are not flying? Thinking about that Zhang Xiu, he was just a pawn at first, and he achieved the five-grade martial arts position in a few years. If the second son personally named me... In a sweet dream, he unconsciously returned to his previous military tent.
Zhang Xiu, who was standing at the door, was already a little impatient to wait, and when he saw the two of them coming back, he frowned and ordered, "Hurry up and go in to change clothes, you must be on the road before dawn, otherwise it will be too late!" β
"Hey, hey, I'm tired of waiting for you!" Yu Wenjie, who was in front of Zhang Xiu, immediately changed his demeanor and agreed grovelingly. There was no one else in the leather tent, and several of Zhang Xiu's personal soldiers were waiting with two sets of clothes. Not daring to overly annoy the other party, Yu Wenjie and Zheng Xin took the clothes from their own soldiers and hurriedly put them on their bodies.
The clothes that had just been taken off from the pro-soldier still carried body temperature, and they felt warm to the touch. It's just a little smaller, and the chest is a little tight. Yu Wenjie tugged hard, but found that something was wrong with his body, he took a closer look through the torch in the middle of the tent, and what caught his eye was a ball of blood.
Immediately after, the tip of a knife emerged from the old bloodstains, adding another touch of red to the clothes. Yu Wenjie felt that the strength of his whole body was slowly disappearing, and when he was dying, he turned his head unwillingly, and saw Zhang Xiu with his hands behind his back, and Shi Shiran left the military tent.
