Lao Lai said, "Brother Xian, you have to know how to forbear, before leaving the customs, he will not do anything to us, and he will not dare to do this, after all, he has no absolute strength, and he will speak his tongue." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Isn't you giving him an excuse to go like this, he can get rid of you in a grand manner. ”
As soon as these words came out, even the crying Cai Wei stopped crying, her eyes widened, looking at everyone in disbelief, she never thought that the situation would develop to such a serious point, the person she loved the most, and the person she respected and admired the most, actually became a rival in life and death.
Xie Tong squatted on the ground helplessly, holding his head with both hands, panting heavily, as if he had no way to vent.
"Stand up", Lao Lai drank, "Xie Tong, what Zhu Wen wants to see most now is probably the painful way you look now, like a loser, the pain will only make the enemy feel more excited." ”
Xie Tong slowly stood up and sat back in his chair, he didn't want to lose Cai Wei, this wedding, he would not agree to it anyway, and the same was true for Cai Wei.
Lao Lai paused, and continued, "I estimate that after the Tongguan is defeated, the army will attack Luoyang directly, and then the autumn wind will sweep away the Yellow Nest like falling leaves, when the Yellow Nest is destroyed, it is the time to deal with you Xie Tong, there is still a lot of time waiting for us to prepare, during this time, we must be careful of everything, be careful of him, and avoid large-scale conflicts with him, do you all understand?" After Lao Lai's words, he gave people a feeling of presiding over the overall situation.
Everyone felt very reasonable, and Hong Shan added, "Also, after entering the customs, you must contact Huo Zixin immediately and ask him to be more careful to avoid being assassinated." ”
An indescribable feeling rose in everyone's hearts, the enemies they faced in the past were in the open, and there was a deep hatred, and Zhu Wen, like Song Wenyuan, turned from a friend to an enemy, which is a very sad place. They are no longer facing those enemies, but their relatives and friends, but they all have a common characteristic, that is, the enemies of the poor people.
Hong Shan walked to the depth of Cai Wei, hugged her into her arms, pressed her chest tightly against her head, and whispered, "Cai Wei is not afraid, with us, we will not let Zhu Wen and Song Wenyuan succeed." ”
Lao Lai also got up and said, "Maybe one day, we have to be enemies with Zhu's predecessors, but our purpose will not change, these enemies, Huang Chao, Meng Kai, and Song Wenyuan, must let them pay for their blood debts." This is our most fundamental goal. ”
Nightingale said, "This seems to be a very interesting thing, how can I miss my nightingale, from today onwards, regardless of the relationship with Lao Lai, this girl will also join your camp."
Xie Tong looked around and roared, "Uncle Shi, don't blame your nephew for being ruthless, if you really want to betray your master, I, Xie Tong, will definitely not show mercy." ”
Cai Wei hesitated for a long time, and said, "Xie Tong, if the master didn't betray the master!
She didn't go on.
Lao Lai said, "Cai Wei means, if you take revenge, can you let your master live?"
Cai Wei nodded, but didn't say anything.
In fact, even if she didn't say it, everyone wouldn't be stupid enough to go to Zhu Wen's trouble, Zhu Wen's martial arts were the best in the Central Plains, and no one was invincible, not to mention that there were thousands of troops under him, and the number of troops was more than three times that of them, and it was only a matter of a moment to get rid of them, and the reason why she didn't do it was because Xie Tong was too famous and didn't want to bear this infamy.
Xie Tong nodded, and said, "Then set the goal on revenge first! Kill the three of them, we will go away and fly high, go to Mobei to enjoy the extremely beautiful life on earth, without asking about the grievances and grievances of Middle Earth, as for how Uncle Shi deals with the affairs of the rivers and lakes, how to deal with the righteousness of the master, it depends on how he does it, we don't interfere with him, people are doing it, the sky is watching, and the head of the Yellow Heaven Sect will supervise him." ”
When everyone heard this, they were relieved and did not touch Zhu Wen, but chose their future life, which is a very wonderful thing. With this goal, everyone felt energized.
Lao Lai said, "It's not difficult to get rid of Meng Kai and Huang Chao, the difficulty is whether you can get rid of Song Wenyuan, this person is very smart, and he is protected by Zhu Wen, and it is really not easy to do anything to him." Unless..."
He didn't go on.
Cai Wei suddenly said, "I'll go to be the bait, as long as I trick him into the Central Plains, I can plan him."
"This is too dangerous", Xie Tong said, "Song Wenyuan is not a fuel-efficient lamp. ”
Cai Wei glanced at him and said, "I will pretend to agree to this marriage, but the premise is that the world must be unified, and the marriage will be held in Luoyang, when the time comes."
Before she could finish speaking, Hong Shan smiled and said, "When the time comes, we can use Cao Gong's treasure to leave." ”
Everyone laughed, only Xie Tong frowned, he was very unhappy with this practice, using women to say things and do things, it didn't look like a man, this was something he couldn't accept, so he was depressed.
Cai Wei said faintly, "Xie Tong, haven't you always wanted to marry this girl? This time it can be said that you have met an opponent, if you can't go all out, I'm afraid the result will not be able to fulfill your wish." ”
The nightingale laughed and said, "Hey, I have something to worry about." Xie Tong, you have to work hard."
Everyone laughed for a while, sweeping away the gloom that swept across their hearts.
Lao Lai continued, "It is expected to attack Tongguan tomorrow and take the city, Zhu Wen is taking the lead with us, and it is clear that he wants to consume our troops, which is a bit too insidious."
But there is nothing anyone can do about it, the struggle between the two sides is only in secret, and no one will take the lead in breaking the rules and bringing this matter to the table. In that case, it will definitely be a group attack.
In the early morning of the next day, Zhu Wen ordered people to blow the trumpet of assembly very early, and after the army was assembled, he immediately issued an order to attack, led by Xie Tong's troops, and rushed to the head of Tongguan like a desperate rush.
Tongguan is the first pass in the world, is the throat leading to Xijing Chang'an, easy to defend and difficult to attack, how many heroes and heroes in history, because they can't get through this pass, lose the opportunity to dominate the world.
However, this time, fate did not favor Huang Chao, they left from Chang'an in a hurry, and were pursued by Xie Tong's tail, and the loss of troops was large, and they no longer had the prosperity of Chang'an.
This time, there were less than 30,000 troops guarding Tongguan, most of whom had been brought to Luoyang by Huang Chao, and some had already gone to Yangzhou to deal with Huo Zixin, who was disturbing the rear.
Although it occupies a natural danger, the gap in numbers has completely failed to stop the fierce attack of the Tang army, and the Tang army attacked for a day and a night, and finally won the first level in the world.
Xie Tong's army suffered great losses, with nearly half of the 50,000 horses and horses under him, while Huang Chao's army only waved its flag and shouted in the back, and after capturing Tongguan, he took over Tongguan in a grand manner.
After the army captured Tongguan, it marched all the way to the east, according to Zhu Wen's meaning, not to give Huang Chao any respite, and to take Luoyang in one go, beating him like a lost dog.
Zhu Wen held a brief meeting, the content of which was roughly as above, but one sentence caused Xie Tong's dissatisfaction.
Zhu Wen ordered Xie Tong to take the lead, be the vanguard of the whole army, and storm Luoyang.
When Xie Tong heard this, his heart was dripping blood, he didn't know why Uncle Shi was hostile to him for the sake of a cunning Song Wenyuan!
He said coldly, "General Zhu, when our department attacked Tongguan, it suffered heavy losses and needed to be repaired, so the task of taking the lead will be entrusted to other departments!"
Zhu Wen's face sank, and he immediately said seriously, "Xie Tong, it's not that Uncle Shi is embarrassing you, along the way, your department is the number one unit in the whole army, experienced in a hundred battles, full of experience, and is the best candidate for siege, so how about it, select 10,000 horses from Benhou's guards, use them for you, and make up for your troops."
Xie Tong still refused, Zhu Wen said, "This matter is so decided, tomorrow your department will continue to open, let's go down!"
Xie Tong and the others wanted to leave.
"Xie Tong, you stay!" Zhu Wen said, "There are some things to discuss with you." ”
Xie Tong came back to his senses, he saw a trace of resentment in Zhu Wen's eyes, his expression flashed, and Zhu Wen said faintly, "Xie Tong, there seems to be a small misunderstanding between you and me!"
Xie Tong sat down patiently and said with a smile, "Uncle Shi is too worried, Xie Tong couldn't understand Uncle Shi's whimsical and smooth layout at first, so that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm, so he would have a misunderstanding, but now that he understands, he is relieved." ”
Zhu Wen couldn't stop staring at him, and said, "Hey, Uncle Shi is old! Maybe it won't be long before you stumble, the future is the world of you young people, and now what I want is nothing more than to find a place to live in the world after the unification of the world, and the revival of the empire in the future, the great wish of the master will all depend on you to realize it." Although there are many difficulties at the moment, Uncle Shi is all thinking about you, hoping that you can take on great responsibilities, these are setbacks on the road to success, and I hope you can persevere. ”
Xie Tong was embarrassed when he heard it, what Zhu Wen said was so high-sounding, he almost believed it, but the fleeting cunning in Zhu Wen's eyes still couldn't escape Xie Tong's eyes, and the feeling of being deceived arose spontaneously, there was no doubt that Zhu Wen was lying to him, he was settling him, Xie Tong didn't understand, they were two teachers and nephews, and it was not good to join hands in the world. Why did you want to involve Song Wenyuan, could it be that Song Wenyuan would do better than him.
He never thought of it that way.
Xie Tong nodded and said, "What Uncle Shi said is reasonable, Xie Tong made Uncle Shi smile." ”
Seeing that he had no objection, Zhu Wen continued, "Regarding the matter of Cai Wei, I think you have also heard about it, and I intend to marry him to Song Wenyuan, you won't have an opinion! I heard that there is something to do between the two of you!"
This question, Xie Tong is extremely keen, everyone knows about him and Cai Wei, but Zhu Wen pretended not to know, and brought it to the table to ask him, which is very strange.
Thousands of years flashed in Xie Tong's mind, he immediately sorted out his clue, Zhu Wen was testing him, testing his state of mind, if Xie Tong agreed, then Zhu Wen could guess that Xie Tong had insight into his conspiracy.
Thinking of this, Xie Tong smiled and said, "Is Uncle Shi joking?" Although Cai Wei is not married, his relationship with Xie Tong is well known. ”
Xie Tong thought that saying this would make Zhu Wen give up this idea, but Zhu Wen was unhappy and said, "Xie Tong, didn't your master tell you, is the man's ambition in all directions? Although Cai Wei is a good woman, you can't be bound by her, you should be determined to be in the world, revitalize the master, and shouldn't lose your ideals for the love of your children, do you understand?"
He paused, and continued, "Don't underestimate Song Wenyuan, he is the representative of the Sichuan and Shu Song valves, and he is also a model of the nobility of the world, before reunification, it is unwise to tear his face with him, we still have many things to rely on him, therefore, for this marriage, you must unconditionally agree and cooperate with me."
Xie Tong's eyes flickered, and there was a feeling of disgust in his heart, Zhu Wen actually said such an ugly thing so high-soundingly, which once again lowered Xie Tong's impression of him, perhaps, from this moment on, he really broke with Zhu Wen! There is no possibility of reconciliation between the two.
He lowered his head bitterly, his eyes were full of helplessness, at this moment, he decided to act in a scene, play it to Zhu Wen, play it to Song Wenyuan thousands of miles away, and from now on, lay out the murder of Song Wenyuan.
Xie Tong said, "Uncle Shi, this is a bit difficult for strong people, you understand emotional matters better than anyone else, and it is more profound, how can you tell me to give up Cai Wei." ”
Zhu Wen patted him on the shoulder and said, "There are many good women in the world, why should a good man stick to this, wait for the revitalization of the master, you are the first person in the Yellow Heaven Sect through the ages, and you are more favored than General Tiangong." ”
Xie Tong was speechless for a long time, and after a long time, he said, "The disciple has a request, which is also the meaning of Cai Wei, please ask Uncle Shi for permission!"
Zhu Wen hesitated slightly, and said, "Say it, as long as it's not against the general righteousness!"
The word righteousness was so disgusting to spit out of his mouth, Xie Tong forcibly said, "It's okay for Cai Wei to marry Song Wenyuan, but it must be the most magnificent wedding held in Luoyang, the eastern capital, after the unification."
Zhu Wen agreed without thinking, and the two broke up unhappily.
The next day, the army marched east again and marched to Luoyang.
The big rout often starts from a little bit, and the moment Huang Chao withdraws from Chang'an, he is destined to become a loser in the struggle for world domination.
The defense line arranged by the Qi army in advance often collapsed at the first touch, and the Qi soldiers had no intention of fighting, and many Tang troops had already disarmed and surrendered before they rushed to the front of the battle.
In less than a month, the Tang army had captured all the strongholds on the east, west and north periphery of Luoyang, leaving only one retreat route in the east.
Xie Tong's army is in the north, and Zhu Wen is in the south, like an iron tong, fiercely clamping Huang Chao, he has already gone, and the current situation is much the same as Chang'an.
However, Xie Tong's part has suffered a large loss, since he came out of Tongguan, almost all the big and small battles are handled by him alone, although Zhu Wen promised to give him soldiers and horses, but only 10,000 people, can not make up for the loss at all.
The only news to be thankful for is that Tang Xizong has returned to Chang'an and continues to live his emperor-like life, and Song Wenyuan also led 30,000 horses from Sichuan and Shu to come to reward the soldiers. (To be continued.) )
