Chapter 505: Surprise Mutation
"Leave one leader, and kill all the others!" Sun Congdong shouted.
It was almost a one-sided massacre, and soon more than 100 Tuyuhun cavalry were wiped out under the slaughter of the Tang army, leaving only the middle-aged man led by him sitting on horseback in a daze, looking at the Tang army surrounding him with a frightened face.
"Put down your sword, or you'll be killed!" Sun Congdong raised his bloodstained halberd and pointed it at him, shouting sharply.
The middle-aged man couldn't understand Guanzhong's words, and he still sat sluggishly on horseback and didn't dare to move.
Sun Congdong was impatient, raised the halberd and stabbed, the halberd was a little sharp, and knocked the scimitar in the middle-aged man's hand away, and then the halberd was raised upward, and a stream of blood splashed, and the arm of the middle-aged man holding the knife was also cut off by the halberd.
For those who can't understand people's words, Sun Congdong will use practical actions to make him understand, which is the consistent practice of the Tang Army.
So, how important it is to master a foreign language.
After the middle-aged man had one of his arms cut off, he finally understood what Sun Congdong meant, and rolled from the horse to the ground screaming, holding his empty right arm and wailing miserably.
Sun Congdong frowned and ordered: "While he still has breath, quickly bring him to Li Xianbo, interrogate him well, hurry up, and if he delays any longer, he will die." ”
A knight leaned over on horseback, picked up the man with one hand, and galloped towards Li Qinzai.
…………
Li Qinzai was still surrounded by his troops, and he was slightly relieved to see that the Tang army had finished cutting the Tuyuhun cavalry and saved the herdsmen.
When Sun Congdong led his soldiers to slaughter the Tuyuhun cavalry, the herdsmen had successfully escaped from danger and rode their horses to Li Qinzai.
The first 50 herdsmen dismounted, stroked his chest with one hand and bowed to Li Qinzai, and said in a relatively blunt Guanzhong dialect: "Thank you for saving you, great kindness, and never forget." ”
Li Qinzai frowned, the old man's voice was a little strange, but after thinking about it, in the Tuyuhun border area in the northwest, the herdsmen of many tribes were ruled by the Turks before they returned to the Tang Dynasty, and their tribes also intermarried with the Turks, so the language was naturally different from that of the Tang Dynasty.
So Li Qinzai didn't care, and said with a smile: "It's okay if you are fine, since you are the people of the Tang Dynasty, Master Wang will definitely protect you." ”
Looking up, a soldier rushed to a middle-aged man with a missing arm, the middle-aged man had fallen into a coma, blood was spilled all the way, and the soldier carried him to Li Qinzai and threw him to the ground.
"Uncle Li Xian, the Tuyuhun cavalry has been completely annihilated, leaving this one alive......"
After a pause, the forbidden army looked at the only living mouth on the ground, and couldn't help but hesitate: "Well, Uncle Li will interrogate it quickly, I'm afraid I won't be able to ask anything later." ”
Li Qinzai looked at the middle-aged man who was dying on the ground, and sighed: "What else are you asking?" Just burn him paper. ”
Leaning down, Li Qinzai said loudly to the middle-aged man who only had one breath left: "Hey, I didn't do it just now, I went down to Huangquan Mo to falsely accuse me in front of the king of Hades, otherwise don't blame me for going down to find you." ”
The subordinates looked at him in amazement, and the old Wei next to him grinned.
Li Qinzai also smiled and explained: "It's really not my hand, why do you carry the black pot?" That's right, right? ”
Lao Wei nodded hurriedly: "That's right, Fifth Young Lang's hands have never been bloody. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man twitched violently a few times, and he was silent and dead.
Li Qinzai looked at Sun Congdong, who was hurrying over, and snorted in his nostrils.
Sun Congdong looked stunned, lowered his head and hugged his fists and said: "The last general knows his mistake, he was too heavy just now......
Li Qinzai sighed: "That's it." Anyway, everything has been seen with your own eyes, and it doesn't matter if you judge it or not. ”
Turning his head to look at the old herdsman, Li Qinzai smiled politely: "I don't know who the old man is, why did he encounter this group of killers?" ”
The old man said with a smile: "The villain is a herdsman of a small tribe near Lanzhou, who is grazing thirty miles outside Lanzhou today, and suddenly encounters this Tuyuhun cavalry, these people often rob our Datang, and they don't leave a living mouth after looting. ”
"The villain didn't dare to resist them, so he took the herdsmen to throw the cattle and sheep and fled, fortunately he met the nobles to save him, otherwise the youth of our tribe would be gone."
The tone is still very strange, Li Qinzai is used to hearing Guanzhong dialect, and it is indeed a little uncomfortable to encounter this kind of unfamiliar Chinese, and it took a long time to understand the meaning of his words.
So Li Qinzai smiled and said: "It's okay, it's good if you can survive, my husband hurry back and take a look at your cattle and sheep, don't be robbed, if necessary, I can send a team of soldiers to escort you back." ”
The old man hurriedly said: "No need, it's too tiring for the nobles, don't dare to bother anymore, the nobles save their lives, the villain can't repay them, and please allow us herdsmen to kowtow......"
Li Qinzai was about to refuse, but the old man turned around and said sternly to dozens of herdsmen: "They are all stunned, they are all stunned, they are in front of the benefactor, and they don't give a big salute to the benefactor!" ”
The herders immediately dispersed and took a few steps forward.
Seeing this, the Li family members surrounding Li Qinzai also consciously moved out of the open space in front of them, such a scene of course should highlight the glorious and righteous image of the fifth young man, and it would be inappropriate to stop in front of the herdsmen.
Dozens of herdsmen were only a few steps away from Li Qinzai, and under the leadership of the old man, each kneeling down to Li Qinzai.
Li Qinzai also felt that it was inappropriate to ride on the horse, so he dismounted and stepped forward to return the salute.
This scene is really touching, the rescued person is grateful and bows, and the rescuer humbly returns the salute, even if the Tang Dynasty Emperor sees it, he will laugh heartily, and a sense of pride arises spontaneously.
However, Lao Wei, who was standing beside Li Qinzai, frowned, looked at the old man at the head, and then looked at the group of herdsmen behind him.
After three salutes, the old man raised his head, and a sharp light suddenly flashed in his cloudy eyes.
At this moment, Li Qinzai was bowing his head in return, not noticing the old man's eyes at all.
Lao Wei noticed it, and was immediately shocked, grabbed Li Qinzai's arm, then hugged him hard, rolled back on the spot, and shouted: "They are assassins, take it!" ”
The Li family was shocked, Liu Asi had unconditional trust in Lao Wei, and immediately pulled out his sword from the sheath and flew towards the old man.
At the same time, the old man and the herdsman also tore off their disguises, each took out a small dagger from his bosom, and formed a well-trained circle, and dozens of people on the periphery resisted the attack of the tribesmen, but the first three rushed out of the encirclement, brandishing daggers and stabbing at Li Qinzai.
As soon as the Li family formed an encirclement of the herdsmen, seeing that someone had rushed out of the encirclement, it was too late to turn around and change the formation to save them, Liu Asi held the horizontal knife in his backhand and threw it at one of the herdsmen.
The herdsman screamed, stabbed through his chest, and fell in a pool of blood, but after all, two herdsmen flew in front of Li Qinzai.
At the critical moment, Lao Wei did not panic, while protecting Li Qinzai to retreat, he quickly drew his knife, his body was short, the knife light swept by, and the dagger in the hand of a herdsman was knocked away.
Among the three herdsmen who broke out of the encirclement, the old man headed by him was one of them, the old face that was originally honest and vicissitudes of life was hideous and hateful at the moment, but he did not dodge in the face of Lao Wei's horizontal knife, and raised the dagger with a posture of risking his life, and stabbed it at Li Qinzai's chest.
Lao Wei just knocked away the dagger of one of the herdsmen, and when he saw the old man's dagger stabbing Li Qinzai with a quick stab, Lao Wei couldn't help but be shocked, and without hesitation, he grabbed a handful of sand on the ground and raised it fiercely towards the old man's eyes.
The sand entered the eyes, the old man's movements suddenly stopped, and at this juncture, Lao Wei's horizontal knife slashed again, the old man's back was slashed, and a long blood splattered out.
"Five young men retreat quickly!" Old Wei shouted loudly.
Li Qinzai didn't say much, turned around and ran, at this moment, what envoy, what county uncle, what identity is meaningless, save your life.
The accident happened too suddenly, almost in a flash of lightning, Sun Congdong and the soldiers of the forbidden army under his command had not yet reacted, and Li Qinzai's life was in danger.
It wasn't until Li Qinzai turned around and ran away that Sun Congdong was shocked, cursed viciously a few times, put his finger into his mouth and whistled, and a thousand soldiers of the forbidden army immediately rushed towards Li Qinzai on horseback, and at the same time surrounded the herdsmen.
The old man was blinded by the sand, but he could vaguely argue that Li Qinzai's figure was running in front of him, as if he had a hatred that was not shared with the sky, and he chased and killed Li Qinzai desperately.
Li Qinzai turned back while running, and when he saw the old man approaching step by step, Li Qinzai also grabbed a handful of sand on the ground and raised it towards the old man's face, and the old man's figure stagnated again.
Lao Wei, who was chasing closely behind, seized this opportunity, and while rolling on the spot, the horizontal knife flew by, cutting off one of the old man's legs.
The old man fell to the sand with a miserable scream, and at this moment, the forbidden army on horseback also arrived, quickly forming a human wall between Li Qinzai and the old man.
The old man's face was desperate, knowing that the assassination had failed, he unwillingly raised his head to the sky and roared a few times, raised the dagger in his hand and waited to kill himself, and was knocked away by the quick-eyed old Wei.
"Dog offal, dare to assassinate Wu Shaolang, it's not so easy to die!" Lao Wei scolded hatefully, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and looked scared for a while.
If the Zhen sect succeeded in this group of assassins just now, Lao Wei and the Li family had no other choice, so they all pulled out their knives and wiped their necks to apologize, where did they go back to see their husbands.
It's really dangerous, and I almost planted it.
On the other hand, after the Li family's subordinates surrounded the herdsmen, the herdsmen were basically killed.
Originally, the herdsmen's weapons were not in their hands, and in order to hide people's eyes, they only hid a dagger in their arms, and the Li family's subordinates were all horizontal knives.
The battle between short weapons and long weapons was not advantageous, and the Li family was full of grief and anger, and the attack became more and more ruthless, and the herdsmen were solved in three or two clicks.
Li Qinzai, who was protected by the soldiers of the forbidden army, was still in shock, looking at the old man who had his leg cut off not far away and couldn't stop wailing and rolling, and then at the group of herdsmen who had been slaughtered most of them, his mind was still buzzing.
There is no doubt that this was a well-planned assassination, including the so-called Tuyuhun cavalry who chased and killed the herdsmen, and they were all actors in this assassination.
The target of the assassination was the envoy of the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty, Li Qinzai.
