Chapter 12: Tricky People

Huo Zixin said angrily, "How can you hide a little thing that happened in this city from Lord Wang, it's just that Ke Xu Cheng is shouting for fear that there will be spies among you, so he won't let you open the door, but this damn King Ye is very obedient to Ke Xu Cheng's words, tired brothers have worked hard, hurry up and go in! Lord Wang is waiting for everyone in the city!"

Xie Tong said, "Where are our troops stationed?"

Huo Zixin said, "The Hebei army is stationed thirty miles north of the city, and now Sizhou City is garrisoned by the Yanjing army of that Laoshizi, otherwise how can the eldest brother be trapped outside the city for a night, damn, these Yanjing people are all very arrogant!"

Everyone had just walked to the gate of the city, and they were stopped by the army guarding the city, and it was still the same squad leader from last night.

Huo Zixin said unhappily: "Boy, what do you mean! Isn't there anyone above you who told you? This is the left-biased general appointed by the Holy Lord, General Xie Tongxie, you are a small city gate guard who dares to commit a crime, is it not that you are ignoring military law?"

The squad leader looked like he was turning a blind eye, and said, "I have seen General Xie and Commander Huo, and I naturally don't dare to hinder the soldiers from entering the city, but the adults have orders, and many soldiers of the Hebei Army can come and go freely in this city, but this horse is not allowed to enter, so as not to disturb the people in the city, these horses might as well be handed over to the city guard for safekeeping, and please cooperate with the generals!"

Xie Tong's eyes widened, this Yanjing army is simply a scoundrel, nothing more than taking a fancy to his hundreds of high-grade military horses, and wanting to take them for himself, but he just put on a posture of relieving the king's worries, using the excuse of disturbing the people, last night's incident has already embarrassed him, and today he has made such a thing, which has touched his bottom line. He said unhappily, "This is not bothering the Yanjing army, although I have dozens of people." It's more than enough to control these horses, let's go!"

The team leader saw that Xie Tong didn't take him seriously. There was anger in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey the orders from above, and when he saw that the horses driven by these dozens of people were about to enter the city, he hurriedly shouted, "Stop me!"

Hundreds of people poured out from the city gate, directly blocking Xie Tong's party with people and horses at the gate, and there was no room to advance.

Without waiting for Xie Tong to react, Huo Zixin rushed to the front of the squad leader with a brisk step, and slapped him fiercely, directly knocking him to the ground. Huo Zixin scolded, "Damn, what are you, you dare to stop the place where this commander goes, annoying Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu wants your life, and you won't let me go!"

The team leader was directly stunned by Huo Zixin, he didn't expect this seemingly young leader to be so domineering, he just wanted to use the name of Ke Xu Cheng to scare these people, but it didn't work. Instead, he was beaten, and he didn't know what to do at the moment, he didn't dare to do anything to these generals whose ranks were much bigger than himself. Otherwise, it must be a matter of military law, and he will not be able to catch any good fruit to eat.

While he was hesitating, a cold voice came from the other side of the city gate. "Who is so bold to spread wild in Lao Tzu's city!"

The squad leader stared at it. The person who came was his top boss, the envoy of the Yanjing Festival - Ke Xu Cheng. He scrambled to his feet. At this moment, the lord has arrived, he has someone to support him, and he has a lot of courage, he knelt down in front of the horse in Kexu City, and said, "My lord, several generals of the Hebei army did not obey the orders of the lord, forcibly entered the city, and also beat our people, you see the villain's face is swollen."

Huo Zixin saw that the person who came was Ke Xu Cheng, and told Xie Tong in a low voice, "This is Hebei Jiedu Envoy Xu Cheng!"

Xie Tong looked at Ke Xu Cheng from a distance, he had heard of this person as early as in Luoyang, this person was very famous in the area outside Yanjing, stationed in Yanjing all the year round, and had a lot of dealings with the nomads outside the Saiwai, and even drove the nomads outside the Saiwai out of the Great Wall far away, this person has a hairy beard, big ears, tall and burly, giving people a feeling of fierceness and evil, but not like a festival envoy, but a bully, but his deep eyes, but show that this person is not as brave and resourceful as the appearance, but a wise and brave person.

Ke Xu Cheng also secretly looked at Xie Tong.

Xie Tong slowly walked in front of Ke Xu Cheng, hugged his fists and said, "The last general, Xie Tong, I have seen Lord Ke!"

Ke Xu Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "It turned out to be General Xie, who was newly appointed by the saint, disrespectful and disrespectful", he said disrespectful, but he didn't make any moves, he didn't even get off the horse, and continued, "It's no wonder, General Xie is a new general, I'm afraid I don't know the rules of this army very well, horses can't enter the city, and it's a taboo in the army to beat people." He turned to the squad leader and said, "Who hit you just now?"

The team leader covered his face, he had someone to support him, and he was much bolder, he pointed at Huo Zixin and said, "Is he beating me?"

Ke Xu Cheng said: "How come there is such a bad seed as you in my Yanjing army, you can only cry when you are beaten, don't you know how to fight back? If this is the case, don't mix with our army in the future, shame!"

The team leader said, "The villain's official position is humble, and he doesn't dare to commit any offenses!"

Ke Xu Cheng said, "Take down this person, scold him with forty rods, let him have a long memory, my Yanjing army is not just fighting!"

Someone had already walked towards Huo Zixin.

Xie Tong's eyes widened, this guest Xu Cheng made it clear that he would not give him face, and wanted to give him a dismount, he shouted, "Slow, dare to ask Lord Ke, there is no such rule in my Tang Army that horses are not allowed to enter the city, this city guard makes it difficult for my Hebei army, and the following offenders are committed everywhere, according to the last general, it should be this city guard who should be punished! How can your lord protect his subordinates like this."

Ke Xu Cheng's face sank, and said, "Xie Tong, you are so bold, you actually spoke against General Ben, at present, Sizhou City is decided by General Ben, and you are not allowed to enter the city so as not to disturb the people in the city, you are so ridiculous as a general, come and take them all!"

The Yanjing army rushed up in a swren, surrounding Xie Tong and the others.

"Stop!" Wang Daoxun led a pair of men and horses from the city. Wang Daoxun took the lead and galloped directly in front of Kexu City.

Wang Daoxun said, "Lord Ke, why are you surrounding our army!"

Ke Xu Cheng sneered, "The good soldiers brought by Lord Wang not only have no military law, but also commit crimes, today the old man will teach you a lesson to these hairy boys who don't know the severity!"

Wang Daoxun said angrily, "The old man's soldiers naturally don't need to teach the guest a lesson, the old man is free to measure!"

Ke Xu Cheng said: "Hey, Lord Wang, this is a short protection, Your Excellency's subordinates General Xie and Commander Huo disobeyed the military order, can they be allowed to go unpunished! Others are afraid of you Wang Daoxun, the old man has not seen it in his eyes, and today the old man will overtake it, come and take it all!"

Xie Tong and the others took out their swords one after another, and said, "You dare!"

The Yanjing army relied on the large number of people, and also took out their swords, pointing at Xie Tong and the others, the two sides were tense, and the action was imminent!

Wang Daoxun said, "It's really a joke, Lord Ke said so many high-sounding words, it's just that he took a fancy to these hundreds of horses."

Ke Xu Cheng saw that Wang Daoxun broke his thoughts, but he threw his face and said, "Lord Wang laughed, how could I make such a fuss, but these generals did commit crimes, if you don't teach them a lesson, how to make this general stand up in front of all the generals." ”

The situation was suddenly deadlocked, the two of them held each other, no one backed down, but they didn't dare to make the first move, after all, the two of them were equal, and they were both generals, so they didn't dare to openly order their subordinates to fight.

Suddenly, a pair of men and horses poured out of the city again, led by a young son, shouting, "Two generals, please stop, the prince has an order, order the two generals to carry the sergeants above the commander to the prince's mansion as soon as possible."

Wang Daoxun glanced at Ke Xu Cheng and said, "Master Ke, let's go! It's a pity that your wishful thinking can't work." ”

Ke Xu Cheng snorted coldly and said, "It's okay, go and judge in front of the Dao prince, let's go!"

Xie Tong told Duan Yuanjing to "Be optimistic about the horses, don't let people cheat you!" After that, he followed Wang Daoxun to King Ye's mansion.

The headquarters of King Ye Li Zhaofeng was placed in a large family in Sizhou City, and the decoration of this large family was very elegant, no wonder King Ye chose to live here, but I don't know where this big family was arranged.

Li Zhaofeng, the king of Ye, met everyone in the living room, and Wang Daoxun took the lead in the hall, knelt down and said, "I've seen the prince!"

Xie Tong and the others knelt down with Wang Daoxun.

Li Zhaofeng smiled and said, "Everyone's flat."

Xie Tong stood up and flashed aside. He secretly glanced at Li Zhaofeng, Li Zhaofeng's appearance is quite similar to Li Zhaorun, the king of Huai, but he is slightly thinner than Li Zhaorun, and his cheekbones are slightly higher, but it gives people the feeling that he is very mediocre, his eyes are gloomy, obviously he is addicted to wine, Xie Tong is very puzzled, why let such a mediocre prince command the entire army, is there no one in the Tang Empire except Li Zheng who can take on the important task?

Li Zhaofeng looked around and said with a smile: "I'm afraid this young general is Xie Tong!"

Xie Tong hurriedly knelt down again and said, "Xie Tong has seen the prince!"

King Ye examined Xie Tong again, his eyes showed disdain, but he still smiled all over his face, and said, "If it is really a hero who is a young man, no wonder the Imperial Brotherhood has entrusted him with a heavy responsibility!"

Xie Tong took in King Ye's expression, and he hurriedly said, "Thank you for the praise, Xie Tong is ashamed!"

King Ye said again, "This king believes in the vision of the imperial brother, and he will definitely not be wrong, so he will be even!!" He turned his gaze to Wang Daoxun and the others, and said unhappily, "I don't know why the two generals used their knives and guns at the city gate?"

Wang Daoxun was about to speak, but was preempted by Ke Xu Cheng, Ke Xu Cheng said, "Qi Yu Wang, Xie Tong and others ignored the provisions of the military law and forcibly brought hundreds of horses into the city, and the last general sent people to lobby to stop it, but General Xie beat the soldiers of the last general, and even committed the following crimes, insulting the last general with words, therefore, there was a dispute at the city gate, and Lord Wang was even more short-guarded, and asked the prince to be the last general?" He directly preemptively recounted the matter, and he looked at Wang Daoxun proudly, obviously to get these horses. (To be continued.) )
