Chapter 48: I was careless
Lu Xiangsheng crossed the Yellow River with the second group of soldiers, and when he went ashore, the battle was already over, and he only saw more than a dozen corpses lying on the battlefield, 500 soldiers lined up in a neat array, and Cao Bianjiao with a blue nose and swollen face. As for the rebel army, it has long since fled.
"What's wrong with your face?" Lu Xiangsheng was indifferent for a moment and asked Cao Bianjiao.
Immediately, there was an inaudible giggle from the side.
Cao Bianjiao glared at Li Yanzhi fiercely, and said casually: "It's nothing, it's just that I accidentally fell off the horse......
Li Yanzhi turned his head away, and his face cramped with a smile.
It turned out that not long ago, when the rebel army was routed, Cao Bianjiao set his eyes on the thief leader Ma Daring who was holding high the banner on the side of the Qing monarch, and chased after him, wanting to kill the general and capture the flag.
The horse was bold and bold enough, and seeing that two legs could not outrun four legs, he was ruthless, and waved the flagpole to Cao Bianjiao.
Cao Bianjiao flew by, and with a backhand knife, he slashed at Ma Daring. Ma Daring's left hand crossed the chest of the knife, and at the same time that Cao Bianjiao borrowed horsepower to fly away, his right hand waved the flagpole and swept on the horse's legs, and the front legs of the war horse were swept off at once.
Cao Bianjiao was caught off guard and fell off his horse, but fortunately the sandy ground of the Yellow River beach was soft, so he did not fall to his death.
Then, Ma boldly got up from the ground and rushed towards Cao Bianjiao, and the two tore together......
Fortunately, Li Yanzhi arrived quickly, otherwise Cao Bianjiao was almost strangled to death by Ma Daring.
Thinking about Cao Bianjiao, who was known as the invincible Praetorian Guard, he was almost cleaned up by a chaotic people, and ended up with a blue nose and swollen face, Li Yanzhi felt funny, and couldn't stop laughing.
Cao Bianjiao was a little aggrieved, it's not that Lao Tzu really can't beat him, it's because I'm careless, okay? I thought it would be easy to take down the thief head, but I didn't expect him to use the flagpole to sneak attack, and he fell into a lot of meat and eight vegetables before he was entangled, otherwise the eight thief heads would not be in the eyes of Lao Tzu!
Cao Bianjiao didn't say much, silently held a flag in front of Lu Xiangsheng, and then unfolded it.
Seeing the three big characters of "Qingjun side", Lu Xiangsheng's eyebrows twisted, and they were soothed.
Qingjun has always been a slogan of rebellion, and with this banner, King Fu's rebellion is considered dead......
"Put the flag away, by the way, did you catch it alive?" Lu Xiangsheng asked.
"There's one alive." Cao Bianjiao didn't say much, waved his hand and ordered someone to bring the prisoner, it was that horse bold.
"Bastards who don't talk about martial arts, what kind of ability are you guys beating me? There's a kind of heads-up! Ma boldly scolded Cao Bianjiao.
"Believe it or not, Lao Tzu has slaughtered you now!" Cao Bianjiao was furious by the angry three corpse gods, and pulled out his knife to cut this guy.
"Old Cao is angry, angry," Li Yanzhi hurriedly hugged Cao Bianjiao's waist and persuaded, "Why are you scheming so much with a dying person?" ”
Cao Bianjiao gasped, glared at Ma boldly with hatred, and inserted the knife back into the scabbard.
Lu Xiangsheng didn't pay attention to these bullshit things, but looked at Ma Daring:
"Are you a rebel general? Did you know that rebellion is to kill the head? ”
Lu Xiangsheng was wearing a red official robe and a black gauze hat, with a dignified appearance and a righteous face, in front of him, Ma Daren was bold and did not dare to make a mistake, but said honestly:
"What rebellion? Master, you have killed so many of us, don't you frame me again? ”
Lu Xiangsheng said lightly: "Say, who asked you to lead people to attack the official's team?" ”
"Stay!" At this moment, a dark voice sounded, Lu Xiangsheng looked up, and saw Xu Xianchun walking over dressed in black.
The Praetorian Guard soldiers raised their knives to prevent him from approaching, and Xu Xianchun didn't speak, but took out a gold medal from his arms and held it high.
The Royal Gold Medal! The corners of Lu Xiangsheng's eyes twitched, and he said lightly: "Let him come." ”
"Lord Lu, you've really spent a lot of time on this journey." After Xu Xianchun saluted Lu Xiangsheng, he smiled.
Lu Xiangsheng said calmly: "How to march, this official has his own law, so there is no need for Xu Commander to bother." ”
Xu Xianchun smiled slightly, and didn't care about Lu Xiangsheng's indifferent attitude, but there were few civil officials who had a good impression of the factory guards, not to mention that he used to be a eunuch general.
"Your Majesty has a decree, and Jinyiwei is responsible for reviewing King Fu's rebellion, Lord Lu, this person should be handed over to me." Xu Xian said with a pure smile without smiling.
Lu Xiangsheng was silent for a moment and nodded.
Xu Xianchun beckoned, and several of his subordinates came over, dragging the horse boldly and leaving.
"You bastards, where are you going to take Lao Tzu?" Ma Daring scolded angrily, and a brocade guard slammed his fist on the stomach, blocking the curse words in his mouth.
"Keep marching!" Lu Xiangsheng glanced at Xu Xianchun and the others, and passed the order.
Seven days later, the army arrived outside Luoyang, but the gates of Luoyang were closed.
"King Fu is plotting rebellion, Lord Yushi Lu of the capital and the Praetorian Guards are ordered to crusade, and quickly open the city gate!" Cao Bianjiao came out of the crowd and shouted at the city.
There was a commotion at the head of the city, and a moment later, a man in a scarlet official robe appeared at the head of the city.
"Tang Bin, the prefect of Luoyang, Lord Lu is polite."
"Lu Xiangsheng, the emperor of the left capital, was ordered to pacify the Fu King and rebelled, and the Tang Mansion opened the city." Lu Xiangsheng rode to the front of the formation and said to the head of the city.
"Lord Lu, King Fu has always been duty, and the lower officials have never heard that he is going to rebel, is it a misunderstanding?" Tang Bin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a smile:
"Otherwise, although Lord Lu enters the city, your subordinates will stay outside the city for the time being, and when Lord Ma comes to Luoyang, let's try the case of King Fu together?"
The military discipline of the army in this era was generally poor, and as magistrates, most of them were reluctant to have troops cross the border, let alone enter the city.
Lu Xiangsheng didn't say much, and waved his hand to unfurl the flag.
"The evidence of King Fu's rebellion is conclusive, if Tang Fuzun does not open the city, he will be an accomplice!"
Looking at the flag embroidered with the three big characters of "Qingjun Side", Tang Bin's face changed greatly, what these three words meant, he naturally knew in his heart.
"Kaejo, open the gates!" Tang Bin hurriedly ordered, then lifted the front of his official robe and quickly ran down the stairs to the city.
"Misunderstanding, Master Lu, misunderstanding, it's not that the lower officials don't want to open the city, and they have nothing to do with King Fu."
Respectfully greeted in front of the city gate, Tang Bin said with a smile on his face.
"Tang Fuzun doesn't need to explain, this official understands." Lu Xiangsheng smiled slightly, "However, this official is only responsible for quelling the rebellion, and someone else is responsible for hearing the case." ”
Tang Bin's mood was just relaxed, and he became nervous again:
"Who is in charge? But according to the envoy Madame? ”
I have been the prefect of Luoyang for two years, and I can't avoid dealing with Fuwangfu on weekdays, how can I say that I don't have anything to do with it? Tang Bin was afraid that he would lose his future because of a little bit of involvement.
"Xiaguan Jinyiwei commanded Xu Xianchun, and he was ordered to try the case of King Fu's rebellion!" Xu Xianchun, who had a gloomy face, walked out and said to Tang Bin with a smile.
