Marry Changle in Datang

Chapter 888 Arrest!Urgent report!

None of the generals wanted the Tang army to kill each other. Hearing that the garrison of Niangziguan was willing to compromise, they naturally followed the old general Cheng's wishes, but Xue Rengui was at fault, thinking that this was Cheng Yaojin's deliberate act to exonerate Chai Rong.

This guy thought that he was the vanguard of this counter-rebellion, didn't he just gain the trust of the emperor to arrest Chai Rong for questioning?Yu Zhongjun said dissatisfied with the account.

"Isn't it inappropriate for General Cheng to say such a proposal? A sinner like Chai Rong who dared to lead an army to rebel, how can he spare his death penalty and let him go unpunished. Wouldn't it make the world laugh at the court's incompetence?"

Hearing what this guy said, Cheng Yaojin was very tired of this guy's martial arts skills, but he didn't know what to do when he hugged Empress Wu Zetian's thigh.

"What does General Xue want to do? Why don't you tell me?"

"At the end of the day, please order the soldiers and horses of our headquarters to challenge Chai Rong's army before the pass. General Cheng will lead the main force to prepare for the breakthrough. When the troops and horses of our headquarters make some progress, we can take this pass and capture Chai Rong in one go."

"If Chai Rong can't retreat, what should you do to make the two armies stalemate?"

In the Tang army camp, when Cheng Yaojin and Xue Rengui were arguing for their differences, some Tang army scouts reported that tens of thousands of unmarked elite cavalry were hidden ten miles away on the left and right wings of Niangziguan pass, and their purpose was unknown.

This is when Xue Rengui was reminded by the old general when Cheng Yaojin entered Niangziguan, he sent scouts to inquire about the military situation, and finally inquired about the situation on the left and right sides of Niangziguan.

Hearing the scout's report, Cheng Yaojin said again.

"The current situation, how should General Xue deal with it, is he really going to kill each other at the expense of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty?"

When the generals heard this, they were all dissatisfied with Xue Rengui's self-righteousness, who would want to participate in the bloody battles among his compatriots if he could negotiate to put an end to the chaos.

Seeing that the generals were silent and had no intention of fighting the Niangziguan garrison, Xue Rengui was also helpless. With the [-] vanguard troops in his hands, it is undoubtedly a dream to challenge the Niangziguan garrison. Moreover, there are still elite cavalry with unknown purposes. At the beginning of the war, it was Cheng Yaojin who led his troops to join the battle. How useful would these generals who had no fighting intentions in their hearts be able to do.

The so-called; "One general is incompetent, and the army is exhausted!"

This is how Xue Rengui looked at Cheng Yaojin at this time, secretly lamenting that the imperial court could not allow him to control the entire army, and it is useless to have the ambition to serve the imperial court.

Cheng Yaojin didn't know Xue Rengui's eagerness to make contributions, although he admired Xue Rengui for his gentleness and martial arts, but he couldn't say good or bad about this fellow's character. Let's talk about the military situation in Guanzhong, my wife. If you want to get things done with enthusiasm, you don't even know how you died.

Thinking about Qin Wenyuan sitting in the Niangziguan army now, the elite cavalry on the two wings outside Niangziguan must be the Qin family army, even if the old man led the army to attack the key point regardless of Chai Rong being an old friend, in addition to angering that bastard Qin Wenyuan, the Tang army would have a few more chances of winning. Now the situation is the best. It was Xu Tian's suggestion that the emperor compromise and remove Chai Rong from the army, so that the fighting could be calmed down.

Cheng Yaojin didn't delay any longer, so he wrote the memorial when he joined the army, stamped his own seal and reported it to the imperial court urgently.

At this time in Chang'an City, Xu Shiji strictly ordered the four gates of Chang'an City to be closed tightly, and according to the emperor's will, several messengers were sent out of the city to order Fang Yiai, Chai Lingwu, Xue Wanche, Zhi Shisili, etc. to go to Beijing to discuss matters and lay an ambush at the gate of Chang'an City. , Set up a strategy of arresting as soon as a few people arrive.

After the messengers from all walks of life sent letters to the capital, Qin Shiji took the Tianzi sword and led the forbidden army and dozens of master cavalry officers to various mansions in Chang'an City, and carried out punishments on Princess Gaoyang, Princess Baling, Li Yuanjing of Zhao Wang, Li Ke of Wu Wang, Li Daozong of Jiangxia King, In the arrest operation of Princess Jiujiang and others, all the relatives of the emperor were imprisoned in the sky prison, and the army took control of each mansion, and no one was allowed to leave the mansion to leak the news.

Li Zhi had no sleep at night for two consecutive days. He sat up in the imperial study, walking back and forth uneasy. Facing the rebellion of the emperor's relatives made the little emperor think of many past events and reflect on his own mistakes, but the more he thought about it, the more confused he became. .

Wu Zetian disdains Li Zhi's personality of worrying about gain and loss the most, thinking how can an emperor rule a country without killing and decisively, although this ambitious woman dare not openly accuse Li Zhi of the surviving blood of the emperor's relatives However, because of this incident, Li Zhi had to deal with it cruelly.

Throughout the dynasties, the struggle for imperial power has always been life and death, and a little kindness is undoubtedly self-destruction.

After receiving Cheng Yaojin's memorial from Niangziguan, Li Zhi frowned after reading it. He already knew that Qin Wenyuan was in Niangziguan and proposed the conditions for resolving the matter. Li Zhi was furious at Qin Wenyuan's rebellious proposal. After throwing it on the ground, Wu Zetian picked it up and looked at it, and said to Li Zhiyan with a gloomy face.

"Qin Wenyuan relied on his military strength to force the imperial court to make a compromise, and his intentions could be punished. The concubine thought that the emperor must not agree to such a proposal that insults the imperial court. It is better to let the army arrest Qin Wenyuan's family members while Qin Wenyuan is not in Chang'an. As a hostage, Xu Tian was forced to surrender, and he personally arrested Chai Rong and brought him to Beijing to plead guilty."

Li Zhi also had a moment of brain fever, and he was deeply impressed by Wu Zetian's proposal, and passed an order in the imperial study room, ordering Wang Fangyi, the minister of the Ministry of War, to lead Qianniuwei soldiers to arrest Qin Wenyuan's family members in the "Prince Qi's Mansion".

Wang Fangyi led the order and elatedly ordered two thousand soldiers to surround the mansion of "Prince Qi's Mansion" in the barracks, which aroused the fury of Princess Caixia, Miss Murphy and others in the mansion.

Zhou Cang was ordered by Qin Wenyuan to protect the safety of the family members in the mansion. He heard the noise of soldiers outside the "Qi Wang Mansion". .

Shi, Qin Xiaole, Xu Xiaoqian, Princess Caixia, and Miss Murphy were all wearing armor and preparing to fight against the enemy, and Lu Yueer of the Qin family spoke to Zhou Cang with a vicious face.

"In the current situation, everyone in the mansion obeys Caixia's order."

When Princess Caixia heard Lu Yueer's words, she said loudly in the mansion.

"Now in the mansion, Le'er is the son of the Qin family. Naturally, he has to take on the responsibility of protecting the family. This time, you will lead the people to deal with the Tang army, and Zhou Cang will send the Qin family's personal guards to their positions. Don't lose the prestige of the Xu family. Order Chen Laosan Inform the master of this news as soon as possible."

The Khitan princess was originally the leader of the army, and she was calm in dealing with the crisis, which made Qin Xiaole and her brother admire her.

After Zhou Cang ordered the guards in the mansion to take precautions, he ordered the gate of the mansion to be opened, protecting Qin Xiaole and standing in front of the mansion. It has already shown the Xu family's attitude.

Wang Fangyi shouted loudly to Qin Xiaole from his horseback.

"Wang was ordered to arrest the family of the traitor Qin Wenyuan. Wait, do you think you are resisting the order?"

Qin Xiaole pointed the improved halberd in his hand at Wang Fangyi and said contemptuously.

"The imperial court wants to persecute Zhongliang, but if the Xu family resists the order, what can you do?"

Wang Fangyi was furious when he heard the words, and ordered the whole army to prepare to attack on horseback, but the commander of Qianniuwei reported it.

"Wait a minute, General Wang. The Qin family's personal guards all use weapons that can kill people instantly. If our soldiers attack the Qin family forcefully, there must be a lot of casualties. Can the general bear the consequences?"

The general's heartfelt words made Wang Fangyi furious, considering that he couldn't turn his back on the general who led the soldiers at this time, he actually suppressed the anger in his heart and said.

"Then according to the general's words, how should we deal with the current situation?"

"The final general thinks that the current situation can only be encircled rather than attacked, so that people will report to the emperor Xu's family to resist the order. When the emperor has another order, I will follow the order."

"Okay! Let someone report to the emperor according to your suggestion. You wait and maintain the siege, and you will meet the Qin family kid in a certain family."

After Wang Fangyi ordered people to report to the palace, he shouted loudly to everyone in the Qin residence with the spear in his hand.

"Does Kid Qin have the guts to fight a certain family for hundreds of rounds?"

Qin Xiaole laughed loudly when he heard this.

"Why not, the young master will meet you, old dog first."

The Qianniu guards drove away the crowd who had already gathered in front of the "Qi Prince's Mansion" to make room for the two to fight.

Zhou Cang was afraid that Qin Xiaole would make a mistake, so he asked Princess Caixia to take the place of the young master, but he heard Princess Caixia say solemnly.

"General Zhou doesn't need to be like this. Le'er is the young master of the Qin family. His father is not in the mansion. It is time to train him to stand alone. The general just needs to do a good job for Le'er so that his life will not be in danger when he loses the enemy." .”

Zhou Cang was ordered to retreat, and ordered the snipers in the personal guards to snipe and kill the enemy generals when they saw the young master was in danger.

This kid Qin Xiaole was so arrogant, he was a little disdainful of his aunt and others' perfect strategy to protect him, and said to Zhou Cang.

"Uncle Zhou didn't get the boy's instructions, so Hugh ordered someone to shoot him coldly, and the Xu family lost their momentum."

After saying that, Qin Xiaole had already pulled up his horse and stepped forward, but he saw a young general in black iron armor and a purple gold crown on his head in the open space in front of the "Qi Wang's Mansion".

"Come on! Let's see how the young master will kill you."

Such arrogance attracted the applause and applause from the soldiers and civilians onlookers, Princess Caixia and others felt relieved to see it.

Thinking secretly; "A tiger father has no dogs!"

Provoked by Xu Xiaole, Wang Fangyi yelled loudly from his horseback, raised the three-pointed spear in his hand, slapped the horse and charged straight at the opponent.

Seeing that the opponent was approaching fiercely, Qin Xiaole smashed the halberd in his hand at the stabbing spear, following the incoming momentum to provoke the spear to stab straight, when the two horses staggered, Qin Xiaole used the crossbow on his arm to shoot Wang Fangyi.

Wang Fangyi had an omen in his heart, and he saw the opportunity, so he lay down on his horseback.

After the horse galloped past, Wang Fangyi didn't hear the sound of the bowstring, but saw Qin Xiaole laughing "haha" immediately, knowing that he was plotted by this kid, he couldn't help but blushed, and slapped the horse again.

"An old thing that doesn't know how to live or die?"

Qin Xiaole was talking to himself, while pulling out the spear with the halberd, the trajectory of the spear point was false and real, not knowing whether it was a false move or a lore.

Wang Fangyi quickly changed his spear and danced a barrier in front of him to block Xu Xiaole's attack, and the two horses also kicked each other.

Look at the halberd against the spear, and the horse against the horse.

"Ding Ding Dang Dang" weapons intertwined, colliding with fleeting sparks.

"Tap Tat Tat" the two horses moved, stirring up smoke and dust all over the ground.

The two fought in the open space for more than [-] rounds, regardless of the outcome.

Although Qin Xiaole's moves were exquisite, he was unable to win for a long time due to lack of combat experience. On the other hand, Wang Fangyi, although a little exhausted at this time, could always find Qin Xiaole's shortcomings in the battle and counterattack, which made Qin Xiaole often feel flustered.

As the fighting time got longer, Qin Xiaole began to realize that fighting with people was not as simple as when he practiced the long halberd. Relying on the perverted body he had cultivated from "building the foundation" since he was a child, he tirelessly acted like a young boy who participated in hunting for the first time. The tiger, from being clumsy, gradually knows how to make the prey be defeated by him.

You see, this kid took advantage of Wang Fangyi's panting, smoothing the breath between his chest and abdomen, making his marksmanship a little slow, and suddenly opened and closed the halberd to launch a fierce attack, not giving Wang Fangyi a chance to breathe again.

Just when Wang Fangyi was busy dealing with this kid's violent attack and felt that he couldn't gather his strength, Qin Xiaole changed the weapon in his hand again, and shouted loudly like spring thunder.

"kill!"

With the thunderous sound, the halberd in Qin Xiaole's hand hit Wang Fangyi's chest, smashing Wang Fangyi's chest armor to pieces.

Wang Fangyi fell off the horse like a scarecrow, and lay on the ground like a dead dog, with his mouth open and coughing up blood continuously, he could only exhale but not inhale, Qin Xiao was willing to take advantage of this to kill this guy, suddenly Princess Caixia shouted loudly.

"Leave his dog's life!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaole steered her horse back to Princess Caixia, Miss Murphy, sister Qin Xiaoqian, and veteran Zhou Cang. Turning her horse's head around, she was still standing majestically at the gate of the house.

General Qianniuwei hurriedly ordered the soldiers to carry Wang Fangyi back to the front line, even if he was sent back to the barracks for treatment.

After the general dealt with the matter, he reined in his horse and walked in front of Qin Xiaole and the other standing mansion gates while the people onlookers clamored and cheered for the heroes of the Qin family and said.

"Young general is mighty, some of them are under the old Duke Cheng's command. They have no intention of being an enemy of the King of Qi. They just came here on orders. If there is any offense, I hope you will forgive me."

This guy has followed Cheng Yaojin for a long time, knowing Qi Wang Qin Wenyuan's bloody nature, so he doesn't want to offend the Qin family, saying this is a foreshadowing, it is the emperor's will to fight against the Qin family, so that he can treat the Qin family in the future Explain something.

Qin Xiaole said with a smile.

"General, you are polite. Although the Qin family has no intention of being an enemy of the imperial court, they will not allow anyone to bully them. Please, general, restrain the soldiers. We will not violate the river."

Princess Caixia answered the words next to Qin Xiaole, speaking domineeringly in an unquestionable tone.

"This general restrains the soldiers of the headquarters, so as not to provoke the princess to kill, and let him do it himself."

After saying this, Princess Caixia ordered Qin Xiaole to enter the mansion and close the door, and ordered Zhou Cang to lead the guards to guard the mansion and kill any Tang Jun who dared to break into the mansion.

……

In the Taiji Hall of the Imperial Palace, after Qin Shiji reported the arrest of the rebellious relatives of the emperor, Xu Jingzong was ordered by Zhongshu to report Cheng Yaojin's urgent military report from Niangziguan.

As for Qin Wenyuan's conditions for peacefully resolving the Niangziguan mutiny, Li Zhi had already learned about it in Cheng Yaojin's secret memorial.

After Xu Jingzong reported the military situation, he continued.
