Chapter 55: Between Life and Death

The Tang Dynasty entered Li Gesang's Zhongjun tent, suddenly smiled slightly, glanced at the emperor of Nanzhao with some meaning, and then sat down as if nothing happened.

He came this time as a son-in-law, and he was supposed to sit on the west side of the banquet to show half of the master's intentions, but for some reason, Li Gesang asked him to sit on the south side.

The people in the south are all inhabited by high-ranking people, and most of them are highly respected.

"Your Majesty, how can you sit here today, boy?"

"Sit down, you deserve it. Wolf Zhengxuan could have been qualified for this position, but he was out on an envoy, only you covered the world, you couldn't do it, so who should sit? He repeatedly urged the Tang Dynasty to take a seat.

The Tang Dynasty was only happy with the persuasion of King Fa, Tie Ning, Prince Fuhu and others, and finally reluctantly sat in the east, which was a compromise position.

Li Gesang knew that the Tang Dynasty did not dare to transgress the courtesy, so he sat northward, which was the exclusive seat of the emperor.

The wine and food have already been listed on it, Li Gesang smiled, picked up the wine jug, and personally filled a glass to Tang Chao: "Haha, today you have come from afar to congratulate me on my birthday, I am overjoyed." Come on, I'll fill it up for you first. ”

The Tang Dynasty took the wine and thanked him, but he didn't drink it immediately.

He had already seen that Li Gesang meant to give a full round to all the guests who came to congratulate him.

Under the table where the Tang Dynasty was located, there were hundreds of seats moving together, all of them were splendid in brocade clothes and luxurious, obviously most of them were princes and nobles of Nanzhao. When encountering such a major event as Li Gesang, it is naturally celebrated by the whole country.

"I wish the emperor a healthy dragon, and the Nanzhao country will be forever." The Tang Dynasty first toasted and said a toast, and all the dignitaries also said a lot of compliments together, only to hear Li Gesang very happy.

Only extremely attentive people can see that most of Li Ge's smile is faked. However, Li Gesang's city is very deep, and he usually doesn't smile, so it looks the same as usual.

In this way, a big stone fell on the hearts of the few people who knew his secrets, such as King Xinyue. Everyone knew that the emperor had spent so much effort to deceive the Tang Dynasty into the Jiannan army, just to take his life. But everyone knows that even if the Tang Dynasty will eventually die, the one hundred and ten people who rushed to the front will definitely die, because his martial arts have been a god-like legend in Nanzhao's army.

During the banquet, he talked about some gossip, and naturally talked about Li Longji's brittle defeat and the Tang Dynasty's occupation of Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty smiled and thanked him, and the ministers of Dali toasted him.

Many people who are skilled in martial arts understand that once martial arts reach the level of transformation realm, all snipers and poisons are useless in front of them and cannot play a fatal role.

So no one doubted that Li Gesang would do something in the wine.

After the third round of wine, Li Gesang stood up, saw Tang Chao's eyes slightly scattered, smiled proudly in his heart, raised his glass and said to Tang Chao: "New Tang Emperor, come on, come on, I will toast you again?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Tang Chao was taken aback, and the wine seemed to wake up, and he stood up suddenly: "Your Majesty, why did you say this, I think that my Tang Dynasty can be mediocre, and now An Lushan has not been removed, how dare I call myself the emperor in vain, Your Majesty's words will kill the boy?" ”

As he spoke, he looked up to the sky and drank a glass of wine.

Li Gesang laughed: "Your talent is by no means mediocre, you deserve it." However, there is a saying that being smart is mistaken by being smart. That's what I'm talking about. ”

When he said this, he got a little carried away. At this time, he had already received the code that Wolf Zhengxuan was ready to kill in, and decided not to delay any longer.

"You...... You are so treacherous, it turns out that your 60th birthday is a lie! ”

The Tang Dynasty seemed to understand it suddenly, but it was obviously too late, King Xinyue lifted the table, and the bowls, plates, cups, and chopsticks on the table flew in the air, Li Gesang hurriedly took a few steps back, stretched out his hand, and the golden rainbow sword was already copied in his hand.

The rest of the Nanzhao generals were also prepared, and they took out swords and other weapons that had been hidden long ago from their clothes, and surrounded the Tang Dynasty in the heart.

There was a loud boom, and there was a sudden uproar outside the Chinese army tent, and the huge Chinese army tent was lifted by the roots, exposing the Tang Dynasty and a group of thirteen people to the dazzling sunlight of Xishu, and the Tang Dynasty was shocked, and it turned out that outside the tent, a trench four zhang long was dug out, and the ground of the trench was inlaid with a lot of big iron nails, deliberately preventing people from escaping.

Eight hundred sword and axe men armed with steel axes quickly formed a formation, encircling Tang Dynasty and others in the second layer.

If the Tang Dynasty wants to rush out, it must first pass the level of Li Gesang and King Xinyue.

Not far away, Wolf Zhengxuan held the knife of the Red Sun in his hand, commanding countless elite soldiers, according to Zhuge Kongming's will, lined up in the shape of nine palace gossip.

Under such a triple encirclement, even if the Tang Dynasty had wings, it would probably be difficult to fly.

What's more, he was still in a situation, because at this time, he suddenly hugged his stomach, his face was purple, and he tried his best to endure some pain.

Am I poisoned by Li Gesang?

Tang Chao was shocked, but then knew that something was wrong. Because this is obviously not poison, if it is poison, it will not be difficult for him at all, with his world-beating skills, even if it is poisonous, it can be forcibly suppressed.

He was in anesthetics. Only anesthetic can trick his senses and render him incapacitated.

But Tang Chao still drew his sword, a Xuantie heavy sword weighing sixty-six catties.

"Formation!" In the face of such a dangerous situation, he still calmly gave the order.

In the blink of an eye, the thirteen servants took out their weapons from their clothes and belts, as well as thirteen shields as light as cicada's wings.

This surprised Li Gesang a little, he didn't expect that there were such skilled craftsmen among the Tang Dynasty who could make such a light shield. But then he sneered, only thirteen people, in front of his own army, he only killed thirteen more ants, seeing that he was in full control of the situation, he laughed, and pointed at Tang Chao with the sword in his hand: "Boy! Do you now know you were wrong? If you see it, this is the end of betraying me! ”

Li Gesang's face was dark and blue, revealing ruthlessness. This is very different from the previous him, no one could have imagined that Li Gesang would have such an angry appearance.

"Your Majesty! The Tang Dynasty has the grace to save your life, this is a well-known thing. Moreover, I occupied Chang'an and defeated Li Longji, without using a single soldier of Nanzhao to help you quell the Wolf Zhengxuan Rebellion, and even sent the Nanzhao army to the army for 20 years without worrying about the food they had eaten. It is precisely in this way that His Majesty can have sufficient supplies to send troops to the Central Plains. forced Li Longji in this dangerous place. I am a dignified Han man, I formed my own army to fight the country of my Tang Dynasty, how can I call it a betrayal? ”

Li Gesang sneered: "You married my two princesses, and became the successor prince of my Nanzhao, not my minister, you don't listen to my orders, and try to fight with me, this is a big disrespect, and you are innocent." Everyone, don't listen to his quibbles, listen well, whoever killed the Tang Dynasty, rewarded 10,000 taels of gold, sealed the marquis of 10,000 households, and killed me! ”

"Your Majesty, wait a minute, it's not too late for the boy to say a few words and then kill!"

At this time, Zhuan Xin, Xin Baijiang, and Ban Lin suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

When Li Gesang saw it, he smiled, and smiled very happily: "Since Zhuan Aiqing has something to say, then let Tang Dynasty live a little longer." ”

No one could have imagined that the most trusted Zhuanxin, Xin Baijiang, Ban Lin and others around the Tang Dynasty actually secretly took refuge in Li Gesang.

When everyone looked at the Tang Dynasty, they had a look of shame on their faces. Among them, the expression of the letter was very sad, and he bowed deeply to the Tang Dynasty: "General! I don't have the shame to see you. But if you are forced to do so, you have to offend! ”

Xin Baijiang and Ban Lin also gave salutes together, and their faces were full of shame.

"Haha, Tang Dynasty. That's what happened to you who betrayed me. Even the most trusted subordinates around you betrayed you in the end, what else do you have to say, if you know each other, it is better to cut yourself? If you commit suicide, how about I leave your whole body in front of my daughter and bury you as a prince after death? ”

Tang Dynasty gritted his teeth, and scolded Li Gesang for being despicable and shameless, first using his birthday to trick himself into coming to Jiannan, and then plotting against his subordinates, and even ambushing him with three times, and also taking anesthetics in the wine, which really used the conspiracy and poisonous tricks to the top. Now, I actually asked such a damn sentence.

"Li Gesang, you have done absolutely bad things, you must not die well! I...... I really regret that I didn't have long eyes back then, I knew this, I should really help Wolf Zhengxuan. Although he is ambitious, he is above board, not as vicious as you! No wonder, no wonder Xie Xiaoyi is willing to commit suicide for Sheva's father, just to see your despicable true face. ”

"Kill me, kill!" Li Gesang was annoyed and angry, and roared wildly. Xie Xiaoyi is the biggest pain in his life, so he naturally doesn't want anyone to mention it.

In the eyes of the Tang Dynasty, there was a look, a heroic and helpless look.

Not to mention that he is now under anesthesia in his body, and his strength is less than fifty percent of his usual strength. Even if there is no Chinese anesthetic, there is no hope of life under such a strong surrounding.

What the Tang Dynasty was deeply afraid of was not the interception of Li Gesang and the monks of Tianlong Temple, nor the hundreds of well-trained sword and axe hands, but Wolf Zhengxuan and his divine arrows and his elite soldiers.

This is a real elite army, with the ability of Zhang Qiu and Qiong, he was still defeated under his men, not to mention that the Tang Dynasty now has no soldiers and no generals. Thirteen people are just a pontoon boat in the sea.

"Ah, I'll fight with you!" Rondo roared, and the copper hammer swung and danced in front of him into a yellow curtain of light, killing the two monks of the Tenryu Temple who attacked first!

At this time, although Rondo broke an arm, it was just right to use the trick of the copper hammer, and this move was really amazing.

His Holiness was taken aback. Almost all his attention was on Tang Dynasty's body, but he didn't expect that Tang Dynasty still had such a fierce general, waving the rosary around his neck at the moment, and his steps were messy, resisting Rondo.

The other twelve retinues of the Tang Dynasty were all brothers who followed him from birth to death, and they had been tested for a long time, although they were at an absolute disadvantage, but they were not chaotic at all, and they protected the Tang Dynasty in a group of two people back to back at the core.

They all knew that the Tang Dynasty had been poisoned by anesthetics, but they also all knew that the Tang Dynasty had excellent medical skills, and the mere anesthetics only temporarily made him lose his combat effectiveness.

That's faith! This is the confidence that the Tang Dynasty passed on to his subordinates on the basis of countless victories!
