Marry Changle in Datang

Thief Dao is one foot long, with a head like a fence, eyes like copper bells, a sharp mouth and a broad nose, and a beard like an iron wire under his chin. He usually wields a long sword. He was once defeated by Yuchi Jingde and fled to Xiliang. Su Baotong has a military division under his account.

The other military advisor was a monk from the "Ao Lai Kingdom", named Zen Master Feibo.

This evil monk used two sets of golden cymbals, which were also held in the air during the battle, beating people's heads like smashing melons and fruits. He acted cruelly, but he still insisted on calling himself the Living Buddha of the Western Paradise. The real Nima is not a thing.

You can see that he looks ugly, he is only four feet long, but three feet horizontally, he looks like Shi Gandang.

The two outsiders are both military advisers under Su Baotong's tent, they cooperated tacitly, hearing that the Marshal has an invitation, they hurried to the Tiger Hall of the Marshal's residence.

Entering the Tiger Hall and seeing the Marshal, the Tie Ban Taoist said first.

"I don't know why the marshal called me two?"

Su Baotong heard the words and told the two to sit down and talk. After the two sat down, Fang Yu said from the commander-in-chief.

"The two military advisers don't know something. This commander has a deep hatred with Tang. At the request of the Tubo Kingdom, he sent troops to harass Tang's territory and intend to invade the Central Plains and disturb Li Tang's country. Now, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty personally conquered our Xiliang land. In this area, with Xue Rengui as the commander, I have already captured three of my great passes, and I will soon come to Suoyang City. Today, the commander-in-chief invited two military advisers to discuss, intending to wipe out the Tang army and capture Tang Tianzi alive, and then raise troops to kill Chang'an City To take away the land of the Li family and make the Lord Wolf the king will relieve the hatred in my heart. I wonder if the two military advisers have a clever plan, and would you like to help me avenge my hatred?"

Taoist Tieban and Zen Master Fei Cymbal heard what Su Baotong said, and pondered for a while, Taoist Tieban then said.

"Marshal, don't bother about this matter. If the Tang army comes, our soldiers will come to block it, and we will cover it with water and earth. If we want to wipe out the Tang army, there is a plan available, but it is to make all the troops withdraw from Suoyang City. Yu Hanjiang Guan dispatched troops and dispatched generals to ambush outside Suoyang City, carrying out the strategy of trapping the Tang army to death, if any general of the Tang army comes out, Lao Dao and Brother Fei Bo will kill him and others for the Marshal."

Hearing what Tie Ban Taoist said, Su Baotong thought this plan was feasible, and immediately sent an order in Hutang to make the whole army withdraw from "Suoyang City" and station at "Hanjiang Pass". The Xiliang Army generals were strictly ordered not to reveal this strategy.

Not to mention the Xiliang army's plan to besiege the Tang army's strategy, but it is said that the Tang army fired artillery at "Jitianguan" and pulled out the camp. When they came outside "Suoyang City", Li Zhi saw the word "Suoyang" on the tower, and suddenly remembered Xu Tian once said that he met "Suoyang". "The words of not entering, hesitating from himself, hearing the report of the pioneer Qin Huaiyu entering the account.

"Your Majesty, I led the army under Suoyang City. I saw the towers and flags fluttering, but there were no soldiers guarding the city. Moreover, the city gate was wide open, and the suspension bridge was not raised. I thought this city belonged to Marshal Su Baotong of Xiliang. How could this be so? I thought There must be a plan in it, if you want to delay the soldiers and horses from entering the city, I hope the emperor will make a decision."

After Qin Huaiyu finished speaking, Marshal Xue Rengui laughed loudly.

"General Qin is very nervous. This commander must be Su Baotong's incompetence. Hearing the arrival of the Tang army, he broke through the three barriers easily. He was already frightened and broke his courage. He abandoned the city. Today, the holy driver personally marched. Our army is full of blessings, and it is him. There are tricks in the city, but what can I do, the generals should be careful when entering the city, but Xue wants to see what kind of tricks he can use."

After saying this, Xue Rengui asked for an order to send his troops into the city, the generals saw that the emperor was still hesitant, not knowing why the emperor was worried, Cheng Yaojin flashed aside, and said again.

"Your Majesty, I waited to fight all the way, even three passes in Kexiliang, without any effort. The enemy general in Suoyang City was obviously frightened by the strength of our army, and he must have abandoned the city because he did not dare to fight our army. It's not that the old official is bragging. If Su Baotong heard that the old official was here, he must have been frightened. How could there be any tricks? He was clearly afraid of us and had already fled for his life. The old official respectfully invites the emperor. The army entered the city."

Hearing what Cheng Yaojin said, Xue Rengui added fuel and jealousy to the side.

"What Cheng Lao Qiansui said is right. Su Bao and other Xiliang soldiers are dogs and sheep. Why should we be afraid? When the Heavenly Soldiers of the Tang Dynasty come here, they will run away when they hear the news, and they are like rats! We wait for the army! Enter the city, and then march in to take the imperial city of Xiliang, the emperor's blessings will be equal to the sky, Xiliang should be destroyed."

All the generals agreed with what the marshal said, and they all asked for orders to send the army into the city.

Seeing the requests of many generals, Li Zhi finally made up his mind and ordered Xue Rengui to order the army to march into the city.

Just when the Tang army marched into the "Suoyang City", in the "Chang'an" city of the Tang Dynasty, Xu Tian had a whim, and he knew the cause and fate by pinching his fingers. It's a secret, no one can change it, he couldn't help but sighed.

"Heavenly secrets cannot be violated! The emperor and generals of the Tang Dynasty should have this calamity."

After the Tang army entered the city, Xue Rengui ordered the generals to search around the city to prevent the Xiliang army's treacherous schemes from succeeding, and then asked people to check the grain and grass in the city, but found that the grain and grass were available for several years. However, he led his troops to retreat in a hurry, so he ordered the soldiers to plant the flags of the Tang Dynasty on the towers, to carry out the administration of peace for the people, and sent envoys to report to the emperor, please feel free to enter the city.

Li Zhi heard that the city was under the control of the Tang army, and ordered Cheng Yaojin to escort the grain and grass first, and then led the Yulin guards to follow.

After entering the city, Li Zhi sat down in the official office of Xiliang, and after all the generals had paid homage, he ordered Xue Rengui to send 30 troops to set up camp, close the ten gates, and after a short rest, he ordered Xue Rengui to gather all the generals in the official office to discuss the march. The "Hanjiang Pass" matter.

Outside "Suoyang City", Su Baotong's scout Fan'er inquired that 30 troops of the Tang Army had entered the city, so he hurriedly reported to the marshal.

Su Baotong got the report, so he sent an order outside "Suoyang City", and the Xiliang army ambushed on all sides to besiege the city.

Dozens of trumpets and cannons sounded, but all over the mountains and plains, the Xiliang army rushed out, blocked the ten gates of "Suoyang City", set up camp together, banners fluttered everywhere, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.

Soldiers of the Tang army guarding on the tower of "Suoyang City" saw the Xiliang army fighting in such a battle, so they hurriedly reported to the government office.

"Report to the emperor, it's not good! Outside the city, there are countless Xiliang troops surrounding the city gate, making it airtight."

When Li Zhi heard the news, he was frightened out of his wits, and all the civil servants were dripping with cold sweat when they heard the news.

After a while, Li Zhi calmed down and said regretfully.

"I regret not listening to Qi Wang Xu Tian's reminder. Now that I and 30 Tang troops are besieged, what should I do!"

Xue Rengui heard the words of the Holy Majesty, but he said it in fear.

"Your Majesty, let me follow the ministers to the city tower to see if the Xiliang army is in good shape, and if it turns out to be beneficial, then I will make a decision at that time."

Li Zhi heard the words and said: "It makes sense!"

Afterwards, Xue Rengui, Cheng Yaojin and other generals went up to the tower to watch, but they saw that the Xiliang army had surrounded the "Suoyang City" heavily, full of murderous aura, with fierce guns and knives everywhere.

Seeing the formation of the Xiliang army, Li Zhi's heart suddenly turned cold, and all the officials were panicked and at a loss.

Just when the emperor and all his ministers were stupefied in the tower, they suddenly heard three cannons below the city, and immediately saw the head of the Xiliang army barracks below the city move, and at the same time heard the cheers of the Xiliang army.

"The handsome man is here!"

Along with the cheers, I saw Su Baotong leading a gallant gallop galloping down the city tower, came to the bottom of the city, looked up at the Tang army on the tower, but saw the emperor of Tang Dynasty sitting under the dragon and phoenix banner, and couldn't help shouting in hatred.

"Is Tang Emperor Li Zhi on the top of the tower? I think my grandfather has contributed to the Tang Dynasty, but he died of injustice. For a while, my father Su Feng fled to Xiliang and gave birth to my brother and sister. Grandfather took revenge, but unexpectedly, the sky net was restored, and it was not leaked. You have fallen into my empty city plan today. If you want to escape from the sky, quickly tie the Luo family here, and everything will be over. Su can let you go back. , otherwise, you will never think about getting out of your body."

Su Baotong screamed angrily, making Li Zhi's hair stand on end, but Xue Rengui and Qin Huaiyu came out and said.

"The emperor don't listen to this guy's nonsense, and go back to the government office to rest, and wait for the ministers to send troops outside the city to capture this guy and behead him for public display."

Hearing this, Li Zhi explained that Xue Rengui and others would come up with a way to defeat the enemy as soon as possible, and then led the civil servants to return to the government office.

When the emperor left, Xue Rengui said to the generals.

"Since the start of the war, I haven't had any confrontation with the enemy general yet. When I leave the city, I will meet with you. You are like guarding the city tower. Don't let the Xiliang army take advantage of the loophole."

Xue Rengui finished speaking, but Qin Huaiyu flashed out beside him and said.

"The marshal is the chief general of an army. He has a body of ten thousand gold. Don't take risks. And when the last general goes out of the city first, he will encounter thieves and generals."

Seeing that Qin Huaiyu insisted on going to battle, Xue Rengui called Yuchi Baolin and Baoqing brothers and said: "You two will join the battle with General Qin."

The three of them got the order, each dressed neatly, and ordered the soldiers to fire the cannons to open the city.

The golden drum on "Suoyang City" sounded, the city gate opened, Qin Huaiyu rushed out on horseback, in front of the two armies, a general from Xiliang rode forward with a horizontal sword, with an arrogant look on his face, he was not arrogant.

This Xiliang general's attire is extremely exquisite. You can see that he is wearing a phoenix-wing helmet with red tassels planted all over the sky. He is wearing a bronze armor, lined with a green silk robe, embroidered with gold dragon and phoenix waist, with a carved bow on the left and a Langya arrow on the right. , Sitting down, the oolong horse stomped on the ground, making a sound like thunder.

This guy saw Qin Huaiyu coming forward, holding a big knife in his right hand, and caressing the three long beards under his chin with his left hand, he said with disdain.

"Wu Na barbarian, who dared to go out of the city to fight, must have some reputation, so he can pass his name to let a certain family listen."

Hearing this, Qin Huaiyu got on his horse and said loudly, "A certain family's hereditary protector is Qin Huaiyu, the vanguard under Marshal Xue!"

General Xiliang laughed "haha" when he heard this, and said, "It turns out that he is the son of Qin Qiong. Your family is famous in the Tang Dynasty, but it's a pity that he committed himself to the defeat of Xue Manzi, and let a certain family take your life with a sword."

After finishing speaking, General Xiliang brandished a big saber in his hand, followed Qin Huaiyu's direction and chopped it down.

Qin Huaiyu blocked the knife in the enemy's hand with a garrison of the long spear in his hand, and said loudly: "Wait a minute, this general's gun will not kill the unknown general, you dog thief, you can report your name at this time, otherwise, go to the Hall of Yama Not even a name."

General Xiliang heard the words, he was very annoyed, and said sharply.

"If you want to know my name, listen carefully. Hugh was so frightened that he fell off his horse. A certain family belongs to the king of Xiliang, and he was granted the title of Tianguan Grand Marshal Su Baotong. If you wait for the monarch and his ministers to know it well, surrender quickly. Silk Road, otherwise, they will all be buried in Suoyang City."

Hearing that this official is Su Baotong, Marshal of Xiliang, Qin Huaiyu said again.

"It turns out that you are a traitor. Your grandfather and uncle were all favored by the heavens, but you were disloyal and rebellious, and you will be shot by this general."

After Qin Huaiyu said this, he swung the spear in his hand, and fought with Su Bao in front of the two armies. You can see the spear in his hand shuttled, and the spear never left Su Baotong's throat, chest, and abdomen. human life.

Su Baotong used the big knife to perform exquisite moves, slashing, cutting, or sweeping, the blades shone like butterflies fluttering, and in the sound of rattling, they blocked the tip of the nearby spear. Turning the knife, he attacked Qin Huaiyu back and forth, the knife with the sound of the wind danced out layers of light curtains, as cruel as the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves, wishing to split people in two.

The two fought for dozens of rounds, and Su Baotong saw that he could not win for a long time on horseback, and thought to himself: "When I feign defeat, I will secretly use a flying knife to kill this barbarian."

Su Baotong wanted to do it, he swayed his sword, led his horse and ran away, his posture was about to leave the battlefield.

Qin Huaiyu saw that this fellow was leading the horse galloping, so he would not let him go, he patted the horse with his gun and chased after him, thinking of the rumor that this fellow was good at using flying knives to hurt people, so he pressed him for no chance to release the flying knives and shouted loudly.

"Su Baotong, I think you are also a dignified man. We will fight with our strength, and stop using villains to act and use hidden weapons to hurt people. You stop and fight with this general for hundreds of rounds to decide the outcome."

Su Dingtong, who was running in front, heard the words, took up the reins of the horses, held the sword in his hand, and said loudly to Qin Huaiyu.

"I am the Marshal of Xiliang, you know my sword skills, I know your spear moves, heroes meet heroes, dragons meet tigers, this commander can see the weapon on your back, I don't know what it is, and I can see it straight Tou, the sun is shining brightly, allowing you to use such a weapon, how can you not make a certain family show its unique skills."

Qin Huaiyu said angrily when he heard what this guy said.

"Hu Er sophistry, the two maces on the back of this general are my father's weapons. They are called Kunlun naked maces. They fought to conquer the Tang Dynasty, killed eighteen princes, and fought in all directions. Mostly these two golden maces made great achievements. This mace It weighs 120 catties, and it is outsourced with six catties of red gold. You know it well? Why don’t you surrender? Are you sure you’re going to die.”

Su Baotong was cunning, and upon hearing the words, he said: "So that's how it is. My way is an evil method. Your two maces shine. We are very curious. Can you borrow them to have a look?"

Qin Huaiyu treated people with sincerity, and said, "Su Baotong, if you want to see my double mace, I will lend you a chance to see it."

After speaking, Qin Huaiyu took off the double maces from his back and handed them to Su Baotong on horseback. Su Baotong took the two maces, watched them carefully, and repeatedly praised: "Good maces! It really deserves its reputation."

The guy liked it more and more, and even said it to Qin Huaiyu.

"Qin Huaiyu, give me this mace!"

After saying that, Su Baotong put away his maces, flattered his horse and left, so angry that Qin Huaiyu cursed: "What a dishonest bastard, give me back my maces."

While speaking, Qin Huaiyu chased after Su Baotong, vowing to kill him and get back the double mace. (end of this chapter)
