Speaking of the back, Cui Gan's tone was a bit heavy.

He said: "How can an ambassador put an army in trouble because of a little money? ”

"Presumptuous!"

Li Shentong was furious: "I am the boss, how to fight, I have the final say." ”

Then he ordered: "Cui Gan is guilty of the following crimes, take it down for me." ”

At the sound of an order, the guards immediately rushed into the big tent and arrested Cui Gan.

The generals looked at each other and did not dare to speak.

When the news reached Liaocheng, Yuwen Zhiji was very frightened, Li Shentong did not accept his surrender, did he want to kill him?

He immediately summoned the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to inquire about the solution.

The crowd was silent, unable to think of a solution.

After a long time, Sima Dejiao said: "The Tang army does not accept surrender, and we can only fight to the death." ”

Hearing this, Yuwen Zhiji's face turned even whiter, and fine cold sweat oozed from his forehead, he didn't want to die yet......

Wang Bo on the side rolled his eyes, thinking that when Li Shentong broke through Liaocheng, he would take advantage of the chaos to grab things and leave......

Just when everyone was at a loss, a soldier hurriedly came: "Report, the king of Shu sent someone to send grain and grass." ”

The king of Shu was Yuwen Zhihe's brother - Yuwen Shihe, Yuwen Shihe initially escaped from Luoyang with Yuwen Zhihe, and persuaded Yuwen Zhihe to surrender to Li Yuan. Yuwen Zhihe did not adopt his advice, so he proposed to go to Jibei to collect military rations.

The military rations of Yuwen Shi and Yu were delivered at the right time, and everyone was overjoyed, but Wang Bo lowered his head and hid the careful thoughts in his eyes.

After Li Shentong learned the news that Yuwen Zhi had grain and grass, he regretted it for a moment, and immediately gathered his soldiers to continue the siege.

Although Xu Guo was supplied with grain and grass, the city was besieged for so long, and morale was still low.

The offensive of the Tang army soldiers was very fierce, especially Zhao Junde, the assassin of Beizhou, who took the lead and took the lead in climbing the city wall, waving the weapons in his hands and killing them.

The soldiers in the back were encouraged and desperately attacked the city.

Li Shentong, who was supervising the battle below, saw it, a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and then ordered in a loud voice: "Collect the troops." ”

Zhao Junde, who was so killed, heard the sound of the cymbal, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face, he had climbed the city wall, and he could conquer the city in one go, why did the ambassador issue the order to collect troops at this time?

But the military order was like a mountain, Zhao Junde remembered Cui Gan who was locked up in the camp, gritted his teeth, brandished his weapon and killed the Xu soldiers near him, and retreated.

Back in the army, Zhao Junde held back his anger and asked Li Shentong: "Seeing that our army is about to conquer the city, why did the ambassador order the troops to be withdrawn?" ”

Li Shentong glanced at him lightly, and said with great majesty: "I am the boss, you just need to follow the order." ”

Zhao Junde: "......"

Damn it!

--------------

On this day, Dou Jiande led the army to the vicinity of Liaocheng, and as soon as the army stopped camping, a soldier came to report to him: "Lord, Wang Bo of Qizhou sent someone to ask for a meeting." ”

Dou Jiande's eyebrows rose, and Wang Bo of Qizhou came to surrender?

"Bring him here."

It was Wang Bo's henchman who came, and after he saw Dou Jiande, his attitude was extremely humble: "I have seen King Xia, our leader is now in Liaocheng, and he has sent a small one to inform you that he is willing to join you and serve you as a dog and horse." ”

Sure enough, Dou Jiande couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips.

"The leader said that as long as King Xia gave an order, he would respond to Liaocheng as an internal response, open the city gate and lead your army into the city to eliminate Yuwen Zhiji."

Hearing this, Dou Jiande was overjoyed and immediately instructed him: "You go back and tell Wang Bo that he sincerely takes refuge, and I will not treat him badly."

"If he helps me capture Liaocheng and capture Yuwen Zhiji, half of the property in the city will be shared with him."

......

When Wang Bo found out, he was very happy in his heart, he had come for the money, and now he could get half of the money, which was really beyond his expectations.

On this night, when he was approaching, Wang Bo led people to sneak to the east gate, killed the soldiers guarding the gate, opened the city gate, and led Dou Jiande's army into the city.

When the shouting sounded, Yuwen Zhihe was hugging his concubine, dreaming sweetly.

When the sharp knife was on his neck, the cold chill invaded his heart and spleen, and he suddenly woke up and looked straight at Liu Heimin.

"You...... You guys...... How did you get in? ”

Liu Heimin did not answer his question, but ordered the soldiers to bring him to Dou Jiande.

Seeing Dou Jiande's majestic face, Yu Wenzhi shivered in his heart, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and began to beg for mercy: "King Xia, I am willing to surrender to the Xia Dynasty, please don't kill me......"

"Hand over the jade seal." Dou Jiande interrupted him.

"Jade seal?" Yuwen Zhihe raised his head and looked at Dou Jiande with a confused expression: "What jade seal?" ”

"You're still pretending to be stupid?" Liu Heimin kicked Yuwen Zhiji: "Didn't you steal the jade seal from Luoyang and bring it out?" ”

"Ah......h

When Yu Wenzhi heard this, he shouted: "Wronged, I escaped from the fire at that time, and I went directly out of Luoyang, how can I have the kung fu to steal the jade seal?" The jade seal is not on me, you have found the wrong person. ”

Liu Heimin didn't believe it, and kicked him again: "The Yuwen family covers the sky with one hand in Luoyang, you took advantage of the chaos in Luoyang, entered the palace to steal the jade seal, usurped the throne and became the emperor, and dare to quibble?"

"I see that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, and you are willing to say yes if you want me to be executed, right?"

"No, don't be tortured." As soon as he heard the punishment, Yuwen Zhihe showed a frightened expression, he had enjoyed a lifetime of glory and wealth, how could he suffer like this?

"Why don't you say it soon?" Liu Heimin drank.

Yuwen Zhihe had a bitter face, and he was about to cry: "I really didn't take the jade seal......"

His eyes suddenly lit up: "Oh, I know, did Wang Shichong tell you that the jade seal is in my hand?"

"He's lying to you, you must not believe him, he just wants to use you to get rid of me.

"The jade seal has been in the Luoyang Imperial Palace, he now controls the little emperor, and the jade seal is in his hands."

Liu Heimin was stunned and looked at Dou Jiande.

Dou Jiande's face was ugly at this time, he came for the jade seal, and now that it was empty, he was unspeakably disappointed in his heart.

"Since the jade seal is not in his hands, kill him."

Yuwen Zhihe's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly shouted: "Don't kill me, I'll help you deal with Wang Shichong, get the jade seal, I'll ......"

A cold light flashed.

There was pain in his neck, and Yuwen Zhihe felt a warm flow out, and hurriedly raised his hand to cover his neck.

Blood flowed from between his fingers and dripped to the ground, slowly dripping ......

His body fell.

"Give me a careful search." Dou Jiande commanded.

The soldiers turned Liaocheng upside down overnight, but they couldn't find the jade seal, and from Yuwen Zhihe's wife and concubine and son, they couldn't ask the whereabouts of the jade seal, Dou Jiande was furious and ordered someone to kill all Yuwen Zhiji's relatives.

Although he failed to get the jade seal, Dou Jiande still followed his previous promise and gave half of the treasure he got to Wang Bo, and the remaining half was all distributed to the soldiers of the Xia army, and he didn't take anything for himself.

At dawn, the gate of Liaocheng suddenly opened, and tens of thousands of soldiers rushed out from inside, heading towards Li Shentong's camp.

The soldiers in charge of the patrol saw this scene and hurriedly ran towards the big tent of the Chinese army.

"Oh no, the Xia army conquered Liaocheng and killed us......"
