Li Jie originally wanted to go to the city to take a look at the legendary Baniu pontoon bridge.

But when I came up, I found that the location of Tongzhou City at this time was slightly different from that of later generations, and there was a military town in the middle, so I couldn't see it at all.

Then he saw a force of about 10,000 men hurrying to the city.

It was only at this time that he saw the founding emperor of the Later Liang Dynasty who buried the Tang Dynasty with his own hands.

The land of one arrow is about 200 meters, which is also the limit of what a normal attack can reach.

Zhu Wen happened to step on this cordon and stopped, indicating that this person was extremely cautious.

Li Jie's eyes are very good, and it is estimated that his eyesight has reached more than 5.5, so he carefully looked this person up and down several times.

is different from the portrait of the historical book, and it is also different from the obscene image of Humpty Dumpty in the film and television drama.

Zhu Wen is probably the same age as Song Wentong, definitely not more than thirty years old, although he has a beard, he is also well-groomed, a bit like an actor named Yang Shuo, who is a tough and handsome guy.

"This thing looks so handsome!"

Seeing him, Li Jie couldn't help but think of Cao Apu.

The two have a common hobby – they are extremely infatuated with wives.

It's just that Cao Cao is already a courteous gentleman compared to him, and he only attacks his subordinates and the enemy's wives.

Zhu Wen is amazing, he only likes his daughter-in-law!

Li Jie grinned and said to himself: "No wonder I was slaughtered by my own son in the end, and I was cuckolded by my own son, that taste, tsk~"

He was ridiculing Zhu Wen's corrupt character and acting without courtesy, righteousness and shame, but Song Wentong on the side slapped the battlements and shouted,

"Old thief Zhuge Shuang!"

This voice startled him, and he saw Song Wentong baring his teeth at a white-faced general in his forties beside Zhu Wen, looking like an enemy.

"Brother Song, you are..."

He had seen the name Zhuge Shuang in the military literature a few days ago.

Tian Lingzi originally had great expectations for him, and ordered him to lead the men and horses of the northbound battalion to enter the king of Jingqin on behalf of the north, so as to alleviate the problem of insufficient troops in Gyeonggi Province.

Zhuge Shuang didn't dare to confront Deng Tianwang in Tongguan, and also went around the secret realm on the side of Tongguan into the pass, and when he was planning how to enter Chang'an, he happened to come face to face with Zhu Wen's troops.

Faced with an army of thieves several times larger than himself, he chose to surrender very simply, and went with Zhu Wen to attack Tongzhou.

Li Jie naturally looked down on him.

But it's a little strange for Song Wentong to react so much.

I saw that after Song Wentong glanced at Zhuge Shuang under the city again, he took out a piece of silk cloth painted with a portrait from his arms, which was densely covered with bright red bloody handprints.

"What is this?"

"Your Highness knows that there are 1,000 veterans of the Yicheng Army under a certain command, and they are all thirty or forty years old, and their military exploits can already be carried back to farming with the rewards issued by the imperial court, and they no longer need to perform military service. But why did they refuse to disperse and still maintain the regulation of a folding house? Do you know what their current last name is? ”

Li Jie was silent, took the silk cloth and looked at it, and found that there was a text underneath these blood-red fingerprints.

Righteous father Zuo Qianniuwei General Kang Gong undertook training, your relatives and enemies, our righteous son thousands and two people inherited, Zhuge will not die, and the righteous city will not disperse!

"Kang Chengxun has a grudge against Zhuge Shuang?"

"Destroy the enemy!"

Song Wentong looked at the silk cloth and suddenly knelt down.

"Now most of the 1,200 Yicheng veterans have been damaged in Chang'an City, and at this time in Tongzhou, only the last general is still a Yicheng soldier, and I would like to ask a general to go out of the city to kill this fang, in order to comfort the souls of Kang Lao Linggong and all of your Yicheng comrades in the sky!"

Li Jie looked at Song Wentong in front of him and was embarrassed for a while,

The reason why Li Maozhen, the king of Qi, was famous in the late Tang Dynasty and the fifth dynasty was not because he could fight, but because he was good at perceiving the overall situation and being wise.

If he is allowed to go out of the city and fight with others, let Zhuge Shuang give him a "click", he is really reluctant.

Gao Silun on the side bowed and saluted,

"Your Highness, the last general is willing to go out of the city to suppress the battle for Brother Song!"

He still trusts Gao Silun's martial arts extremely much, and having him watch from the sidelines can also greatly reduce Song Wentong's danger.

"Okay, remember, stay in Qingshan without worrying about no firewood, don't be blinded by hatred temporarily, if you can't kill him this time, let's do it for the second time, the third time, there will always be a chance!"

"Your Highness!"

When the two went to order troops together, Li Jie looked at Meng Zhaotu with questioning eyes.

The old man smiled bitterly and told the matter between Kang Chengxun and Zhuge Shuang, the former military envoy of Yicheng.

Zhuge Shuang was born in Shandong Province, was expelled as a small official for accepting bribes, and became a beggar in Xuzhou.

As a result, it was just in time for Pang Xun's uprising and the occupation of Xuzhou.

So, he defected to the rebels.

Kang Chengxun's Yicheng Army happened to be one of the many jiedu envoys who encircled and suppressed Kou Xun, and it was also the most capable way.

In the battle of Liuzizhai, Pang Xun's 30,000 elite army was besieged and killed, so that he had to flee back to Xuzhou.

Back then, Pang Xun and Wang Xianzhi, Huang Chao basically had a routine, fighting while asking Tang Court for officials.

And in this battle, he completely extinguished his desire to seek office, and at the same time hated Kang Chengxun.

Zhuge Shuang had climbed to the position of a junior colonel in the rebels at this time, which was equivalent to the military power of a captain.

This person is very good at flattery, so he wants to please Pang Xun to advance.

He happened to know that Kang Chengxun's entire family lived in Zhengzhou, so he took dozens of people to sneak into the city for a long time, killing all the more than 50 members of his family, and even throwing Kang Chengxun's grandson, who was less than two years old, into a well.

It's a pity that just when he was about to rush back to ask for credit, Pang Xun had already fled to Suzhou in defeat and was finally killed, and Zhuge Shuang's sycophant slapped even the horse dead.

In the end, he was forced to have no choice but to surrender.

Because he was a very inconspicuous small school at the time, although Kang Chengxun knew that the whole family was killed by Pang Xun, he didn't know who it was, so he could only enter Beijing with remorse and be promoted, depressed.

When he learned that the enemy was Zhuge Shuang, the latter had already become a defense envoy in Ruzhou by virtue of his ability to drill the camp, and his official rank was only one order lower than him, and he was an official in the same court.

In addition, this person was extremely alert, and he didn't take a step into the customs at all, Kang Chengxun could only stare dryly, and finally died depressed.

These 1,200 people were his personal guards and close soldiers, extremely loyal to Kang Chengxun, as soon as Kang Chengxun died, he was sent by Tian Lingzi to guard the tomb in Qianling, which was seven years.

And they have only one wish, that is, to avenge their master, and even after Kang Chengxun's death, they all recognized him as their father-in-law, and they all took the surname Kang.

Li Jie listened straight, clicked his mouth,

In ancient times, although there were many people who were extremely unrighteous at both ends, there were still many loyal and righteous people.

As long as you are good to them, people will really pay you back.

At this time, the war drums sounded, and Song Wentong and Gao Silun had already led more than 2,000 allied troops out of the north gate of Tongzhou, facing Zhu Wen and Zhuge Shuang.

Zhuge Shuang is now betraying the Tang Dynasty, and it is really justified to kill him at this time.

"King Wei's crossbow is ready to meet the two generals at any time!"

The "Weiwang Crossbow" is actually the Divine Arm Crossbow.

It is said that this extremely lethal weapon has been lost, but Li Jie, as a student of archaeology, has seen drawings about its production on some fragments of the Southern Song Dynasty.

By the end of the Tang Dynasty, the study of crossbows had been very developed, and a sweeper in the ordnance prison could be a skilled craftsman, lacking only a little inspiration.

As soon as he explained the appearance and function of his memory, a craftsman immediately improved what was wrong, and made a sample on the third day.

Although the power is still not the same as recorded in the history books, it has also greatly improved the development process of crossbow arrows.

If it weren't for the limited quantity of fine iron stored in Chang'an, only more than 1,000 pieces could be made, and I was afraid that without Li Jie personally running out to attack Tongzhou, this thing alone would be able to reverse the disadvantage of the Tang army.

The reason why it was changed to this name is firstly to fool Li Yi, and secondly, in his opinion, this crossbow is not worthy of being called a "divine arm crossbow"!

Thirty crossbows and hundreds of longbows were set up on the head of the city, and in case Song Wentong really couldn't do it, he could still cover it.

Zhu Wen led his troops to the city without squeaking, and he had realized that he was currently at the point where the two armies were caught between them.

Come here to see who took his city, and then wait for the opportunity to get it back.

However, when he saw the black-armored Tang general and thousands of soldiers standing at the head of the city, he immediately changed his mind about attacking the city.

He didn't recognize Li Jielai, and he even just knew the news that Huangchao's grain and grass camp was burned.

But if you don't have ready-made siege equipment at hand, you can't fly up the city wall with horses' hooves, right?

Moreover, when he thought that Huang Ye must have died in battle, and Huang Chao didn't know how to explain, the other party actually opened the city gate and took the initiative to attack!

"General Zhu, the big thing is not good, now we are suffering from the enemy, Huang Ye is dead, most of the grain and grass in the Chinese army camp are burned, and the Tang army has robbed Tongzhou, this Qin and Jin are connected, Zheng Congyan and Wang Chongrong will inevitably lead the army to attack the pass, I am afraid that the Yellow King's advantage will be lost!"

This is a staunch opportunist and capitulationist.

When I saw that the situation was not good, I thought not about how to redeem it, but about how to run away or surrender.

And it just so happens that Zhu Wen is also this kind of person.

In history, he constantly jumped between rebelling against the Tang Dynasty and descending to the Tang Dynasty, and finally jumped himself into the founding king, which is estimated to be something that no one thought of at the time.

Zhu Wen's eyes were rolling, and when he was pondering his way out, Song Wentong had already rushed out with a three-pointed and two-edged knife.

With a flick of his hand, he threw Huang Ye's head in front of the two of them,

"Zhuge old thief, do you dare to go out to fight a certain battle?"

Zhu Wen looked at the human head on the ground, and his temples jumped.

At the beginning, Huang Chao stuffed this brother who was nothing to him, purely to get some credit and look good, but he didn't expect to be killed.

"Rice bucket!"

And Zhuge Shuang shrank his neck and looked at Song Wentong,

I don't know!

How could he be invited to fight by name?

Although he also wears a suit of armor, which is used to save his life, in terms of martial arts, he may not even be as good as a soldier under his own command.

Therefore, he looked down at Huang Ye's head and pretended to be stupid, so he didn't hear it.

Song Wentong shouted for a long time, and when he saw that the other party was a shrunken turtle, he drew his bow and was an arrow.

Zhu Wen waved his spear and knocked the arrow away for Zhuge Shuang, although he didn't understand what the grudge was between the two, he was still a war horse,

"Zhu is here to compete with you!"

Song Wentong had no fear, waved his weapon and went up, and the two fought together.

In this fight, even Li Jie can see that Song Wentong is not an opponent at all, and being selected into the "Sixteen Fierce" of the thief army shows that Zhu Wen is very capable of fighting, and he is much higher than the other fifteen fierce.

Gao Silun was the one who pressed Song Wentong, and when he saw this situation, he waved the red gun in his hand, and the two of them fought against Zhu Wen!

The spear in Zhu Wen's hand flew up and down, and there was no sign of being suppressed in the face of the two people's flanking attack, but it was a draw.

Li Jie finally saw what the Great War Three Lilies were.

The sound of the three horses rushing left and right, and the sound of the three weapons colliding together echoed over the battlefield, and they fought for nearly an hour.

Meng Zhaotu couldn't stand it anymore,

"Your Highness, it's been half an hour, even if the two generals are brave, but the war horses can't support it, now we have the advantage, we can't do a battle of will!"

Li Jie looked at Zhuge Shuang, who was on the opposite side, and then at Zhu Wen, who seemed to be getting more and more energetic, and asked rhetorically: "If I go to pick this pig at this time, will it damage the positive image of this king?" ”

Meng Zhaotu stuffed his hands into his sleeves, his face expressionless,

"The two armies need to be fair when they fight each other, and now the two generals are fighting against this person, and it is against justice for His Royal Highness to take advantage of the danger of others, I am only afraid of this reputation, Mencius said..."

Li Jie hurriedly waved his hand to stop, this old man was okay to recite some Confucius and Mencius in front of him, mixed with some gossip about the way of being a king and the conduct of a king, did he really take his official as a guest of the prince seriously?

The problem is that he is not a prince, he is always educated by this thing, and he is not afraid that Li Yi will cut off his head after knowing about it.

"Mingjin, collect the troops!"

Li Jie chose to compromise and already felt the Monkey King's tight spell.

As soon as Song Wentong and Gao Silun entered the city gate, they slipped off their horses, sat on the ground and gasped for breath.

Zhu Wen's martial arts were beyond the expectations of the two.

Especially Gao Silun, the original little arrogance is completely gone.

"Can't beat it, can't beat it, no wonder such an important pass of Pujin Pass is guarded by this person, I'm afraid that only His Highness or his younger brother can surrender to him!"

However, after taking a breath, he said to himself in a tone of discussion:

However, this Zhu Wen seems to be the "oleander plum gun" of Zhao Yun, the general of Shu Han, but isn't this marksmanship lost? ”

Subsequently, he didn't even get up, sat on the cold bluestone ground and discussed with Song Wentong about the strengths of each marksmanship, and held a technical seminar.

In this regard, Li Jie is extremely big.

Look at the three guys with the highest status around him at present, Meng Zhaotu hanging the book bag, these two talk about martial arts, the three of them get together, Li Jie feels that his eyes have become big and small, and they have become a "Bin" word.

Fortunately, several figures flashed in from the side of the city wall, and the "ninjas" who went to Puzhou finally brought back the replies from Zheng Congyan and Wang Chongrong.

The letter is extremely simple:

After noon, the two sides sent troops together to flank Zhu Wen's military camp stationed outside the Pujin Bridge.

"Very well, you will wait for the night's travel, go and rest quickly, and then this king will have an order for you."

"Hello!"

Song Wentong didn't accompany Gao Silun to discuss Zhu Wen's marksmanship at this time, but looked at the backs of these "ninjas" for a moment.

"The little lady named Mikami Ya in the middle is really smooth, but she has been covering her face, and she doesn't know what she looks like?"

Gao Silun "hehe" laughed,

"Brother Song has no marriage match at such an age, why don't you ask His Highness to promise this foreign woman to you as a lady?"

Song Wentong didn't answer this, got up and patted his buttocks,

"Let's talk about it when we return to the capital, in fact, we already have someone we like."

Gao Siji's curiosity was aroused, but unfortunately when it came to how he asked, Song Wentong just didn't say it, but changed the topic, scolding Zhuge Shuang for not being a man and not daring to fight with him.

At this time, Li Jie had already run back to the mansion of the former defense envoy of Tongzhou to make up for sleep.

is about to face a big battle, and he needs to face it with a twelve-point spirit, which is very important for Chang'an to relieve the siege of Chang'an!

But as soon as three o'clock in the afternoon, that is, at twelve o'clock in the afternoon, he got up and was eating yellow rice, and Song Wentong hurriedly ran in.

"Your Highness, Zhu Wen and Zhuge Shuang have run away!"

"Huh?"

Li Jie was stunned.
