retaliate

Chapter 688 Brothers
For Huang Chunhui, the rich and powerful in Chang'an, and the world's powerful and powerful, would not even blink his old eyes once they were all dead.

He even boldly said that he wanted to use this battle to win ten years of peace, but he just wanted to kill the emperor who was no longer young and change to a wise emperor to rule the Tang Dynasty.

But for many people in Chang'an, they wished that he would die quickly.

The autumn in Chang'an is quite cool, and this kind of weather is the most suitable for enjoying, so there are more silk and bamboo sounds and singing in the pear orchard.

The emperor composed a new song yesterday, and the imperial concubine is rehearsing the dance.

A group of beauties danced with the imperial concubine, and the emperor looked at it with a smile, very comfortable.

"The autumn wind brings coolness, this is a fairyland on earth!"

The emperor praised him sincerely.

Han Shitou stood on the side, looking very comfortable.

"His Majesty."

A servant came in, "Mirror platform urgent report."

At this time, the imperial concubine began to spin, her skirt flying.Her white and tender calves were all exposed, and even a section of her thigh was faintly visible.

It's hazy and touching... The emperor watched intently, and waved his hand, "Go to the stone!"

When Han Shitou left the hall, Wang Shou had already arrived.

"What's the news?" Han Shitou asked casually.

Wang Shou's face was a little red, and he could even see sweat.He has a good cultivation base, so he won't be like this after walking a short distance, it can only show that this news makes him uneasy.

"Helian Peak's army has arrived."

Han Shitou went in, "Your Majesty."

The emperor took a deep breath, "Say!"

"Helian Peak has arrived. The army claims to be 50, but it is actually 20."

The emperor turned his head slowly, with a stern look in his eyes, "Old dog!"

Han Shitou gritted his teeth and said, "Old dog!"

The emperor clapped his hands, and the imperial concubine took the beauties to leave.

The emperor closed his eyes, "What did Huang Chunhui say?"

Han Shitou said: "Huang Chunhui told his subordinates that in this battle, we will win ten years of peace."

"He is full of confidence, but there are only 12 horses in Northern Xinjiang and 20 cavalry in Beiliao. How can we win?"

The emperor got up and "called the ministers."

Later, the monarchs and ministers gathered together.

"Beiliao's 20 troops have arrived in northern Xinjiang, and the war is imminent."

The emperor dropped the topic and began to close his eyes and meditate.

Zhang Huan said: "Your Majesty, at this moment, the reinforcements are far away from the water and it is difficult to quench their thirst. It is still the same sentence. It is time to order the surrounding counties in northern Xinjiang to send food and grass to northern Xinjiang at all costs. This kind of battle will not be determined in a day. , every extra catty of grain will increase the odds of winning."

Yang Songcheng said: "Your Majesty, I believe that all the government soldiers should be put on alert at this moment. If the troops in Northern Xinjiang are defeated, they can block them layer by layer. The most important thing is the Guanzhong. The Guanzhong is steep and there are countless male passes. You just need to be careful and you will be safe."

The emperor was silent.

Luo Cai coughed and sighed, "It's wise to think about defeat before starting a war."

This is a slap in the face.

——Why did you go early?

At the beginning, the ministers suggested to send reinforcements to northern Xinjiang, and to transport more food and grass to northern Xinjiang... Who the hell listened?
They all regard Northern Xinjiang as a different kind and let it fend for itself.

Now that they heard that Helianfeng's army had arrived in the northern border, everyone panicked, but the method they thought of was disgusting!
Yang Songcheng looked at Luo Cai, "Does Luo Shangshu have a good opinion?"

Luo Cai said: "I don't dare to take a high opinion. The old man sees that the most important thing to do at this moment is to send envoys to the northern border, bring His Majesty's Tianzi Sword, and give it to Huang Chunhui to show that His Majesty is with the army and people of Northern Xinjiang. In this way, the world is united, How can Beiliao fight against it?"

Yang Songcheng smiled, "If the Tianzi Sword becomes someone else's..."

Luo Cai was angry, "Huang Chunhui is very old, and his life is not long. Just like this, you are still suspicious and slandering him. How much hatred is there? Whose ancestral grave did he dig? Whose mother did he kill? "

"All right."

The emperor stood up, "It's gone."

Luo Cai raised his head and said incredulously, "Your Majesty, what should we do in Northern Xinjiang?"

The emperor said indifferently: "There is enough grain and grass in northern Xinjiang. It has just been harvested, and it will be enough to eat in the spring of next year. The 20 troops from the Northern Liao Dynasty went south, but at least there were more than 50 people who transported the luggage. He Lianfeng can't last long."

The emperor went all the way to the Supreme Emperor.

"The weather is fine." Standing outside the hall, the emperor smiled.

In the main hall, a group of maids were dancing, the Supreme Emperor embraced from left to right, the beauty in his arms brought the wine glass to his lips from time to time, he took a sip, and the beauty next to him gave another mouthful of food.

this day!
"Aye."

The Supreme Emperor raised his head, "What are you doing here?"

The emperor bypassed the singing and dancing, stepped forward and sat down.

"He Lianfeng led an army of 20 to northern Xinjiang."

The Supreme Emperor was still watching the singing and dancing, "Are you panicking?"

"Never." The emperor said: "Half of this battle was Huang Chunhui's provocation. He wanted to consume Beiliao's thoughts before he became an official, but he couldn't hide it from me. Since he dared to provoke, he must be sure to win the battle, otherwise... the courtiers are the best. The good thing is the posthumous reputation, and the older you get, the more so. He is reluctant to bear the reputation of being provocative but defeated!"

"Do you think he will win?"

"No, victory and defeat are equal. However, He Lianfeng is planning to go south. If he doesn't go south at this moment, when Huang Chunhui leaves, Liao Jin will take over Beijiang... I don't feel at ease."

"Liao Jin's ability is not as good as Huang Chunhui's."

"That's right, that's why I acquiesced in his instigation of the war."

"You're just like that weasel, going to the Three Treasures Hall for everything... Then, why are you here?"

The emperor said: "After all, there is a [-]% chance of defeat. I am worried..."

"More than [-]%." The Supreme Emperor said quietly: "Huang Chunhui is old. When people are old, their brains will not work. Besides, you overestimated Huang Chunhui."

There was a flash of light in the emperor's eyes, "Aye's meaning..."

The Supreme Emperor drank a glass of wine and put his arms around the beauty, "Emperors will go crazy when they are old, and they will toss the world. People and ministers will go crazy when they are old, they can only rule by toss.

Huang Chunhui's life is not long. He has been in northern Xinjiang for decades. What does he want to do when he is about to die?Leave a name! "

"What does Aye mean, Huang Chunhui is taking risks?"

"Of course he is taking risks." The Supreme Emperor said lightly: "You don't know the ferocity of the Northern Liao iron cavalry. I heard your grandfather once said that 20 iron cavalry can rule the world. The 12 army in Northern Xinjiang seems to be a lot. You Do you know how old and weak there are?"

"Aren't they all elite?"

"You are good at checks and balances, and you are good at shady people, but you lack grandeur. If you calculate the money and food in northern Xinjiang and the money and food allocated by the Ministry of Households every year, you can know how many elites this money and food can support in addition to the people.

The army is a bottomless pit, the more elite it is, the more money and food it will cost.In addition to feeding the people in northern Xinjiang every year, how can the remaining money and food support 12 elites?How many old and weak are among them? "

"The 12 statement..."

"That's what Huang Chunhui said to embolden the soldiers and civilians in Northern Xinjiang. Just like Beiliao sent 20 troops this time, they will definitely boast more than double."

The emperor suddenly stood up.

"In a hurry?" The Supreme Emperor teased: "Why did you go so early? What's the use of being anxious now? The army can't fly from Chang'an to Beijiang in one day."

The emperor's face was slightly cold, "If the Great Tang declines, I'm afraid Aye's life will be difficult."

"Is this trying to threaten me?" The Supreme Emperor laughed and slapped the ground with a smile, "Ouch! Ouch! The decline of the Tang Dynasty, the decline of the Tang Dynasty, whose fault is it? You shameless bastard, a dog that can even be snatched by your daughter-in-law thing.

When I was in power, I was diligent in political affairs.

When it comes to you, you will be singing and dancing in the pear garden all day, staring at those women all day...

Why!I am a little curious, there are countless young and beautiful women in the palace, why are you interested in those women? "

There was more gloom in the emperor's eyes, and the Supreme Emperor smiled and said: "I have been waiting for you to do it, the sooner the better. Kill me, and you will be the only one in the world. Hey!"

The Supreme Emperor sighed, "All the beautiful women in the world are up to you to favor, the delicacies in the world are up to you to enjoy, and the rare treasures in the world are up to you to enjoy. But you like to hide behind the scenes and hide people. This is not what the emperor did, but more Like a powerful minister.

You are willing to degenerate like this, what can my husband say?My biggest regret in this life is..."

The emperor had already reached the door.

The Supreme Emperor looked at his back with indifferent eyes, "Why did I sleep with your mother that night?"

The emperor stopped and sneered, "If it wasn't for me, my father was just a prince back then. How could my father have the chance to enter the East Palace if he respected the emperor? Even if he was in the East Palace, without my assistance, my father would have been abolished long ago..."

He strode out, and several servants appeared outside the hall, looking at the Supreme Emperor indifferently.

The Supreme Emperor sat there, holding the waists of the two beauties with both hands, suddenly pinched the beauties on the right, and said angrily, "Why don't you send wine?"

The palace maid trembled, but she didn't dare to cry out, she brought the wine glass to the Supreme Emperor's lips.

He took a sip, then spit it out suddenly, "You are fooling me with bad wine, come on!"

The servant serving on the side stepped forward, "The Supreme Emperor."

The Supreme Emperor pushed the maid on the right hand out, "Stand dead!"

"The Supreme Emperor, please forgive me!"

"Forgive me!"

"Old dog, your father and son will die a terrible death!" Thinking that she would die, the maid gave up struggling and was dragged out.She tried her best to raise her head and screamed at the Supreme Emperor, "I will watch you father and son from the ground, gods above, I curse you father and son to die! Not to die! Not to die!"

The Supreme Emperor didn't care about a slave's curse at all, just treated it as a fart.

He sat there in a daze.After an unknown amount of time, he looked up at the void.

"Brother, tell me, how is the emperor doing? You are worthless! You were imprisoned by your own son. Hey! You were also imprisoned back then... Could it be retribution?"

Brother, that is to honor the emperor.

The people in the hall trembled.

When the emperor came out of here, he immediately ordered, "Order all places to be on alert, all the passes in the central pass are strictly on alert, and more inquiries will be made."

"Yes."

The emperor said: "It's all right to call a group of ministers. It's good for those idiots to keep each other in check. Such a big event will only delay the progress. Let people reward Huang Chunhui's family."

"Yes."

"The reward is a reward, so that the people in Jingtai are optimistic about Huang Chunhui's family. If Pei Jiu transferred his family out, if it happens again, Wang Shou will commit suicide, and there is no need to report to me!"

Back then, Pei Jiu led the guards to cut off most of the faces of Li Bi and his son in front of the imperial city.Afterwards, Li Mi and his son wanted to vent their anger on Pei Jiu's family, but they had long since disappeared.

"Yes."

The emperor returned to his pear orchard, and the imperial concubine came to serve him in person.

"The war is about to start." The emperor sat down.

"Brother said it earlier."

The imperial concubine is carefree.

Let the emperor feel relieved.

"That's right." The imperial concubine remembered something, "It was said earlier that King Yue had sent a letter."

"Oh!"

The emperor read King Yue's letter and said playfully, "He said that the army from the southern border can rush to the northern border."

The imperial concubine didn't dare to interfere, so she flattered her, "I think she is loyal."

"Loyal? My sons are not easy-going lamps."

The emperor ordered: "I haven't seen the second child for a long time, go to someone and call him here."

Han Shitou went out to order, and the emperor continued to order, "The tax harvested this year should be shipped to Chang'an as soon as possible, the sooner the better."

"Yes!"

"In addition, the people in the northern border of Jingtai should keep an eye on Huang Chunhui and others. If they lose the battle, report it quickly."

"Yes."

The person who went to find King Wei came back.

"Your Majesty, the king is gone."

"Ok!"

The emperor was furious.

"Where did that traitor go?"

"The woman is still there. She said that King Wei went to visit friends in the north and left a long time ago."

"Visiting friends from the north?"

……

"drive!"

Amidst the colorful fallen leaves, Yiqi is galloping.

Autumn is chilling in northern Xinjiang, but it's okay now, it's not yet gray, as if all the vitality in the world has withered.

The war is about to start, and there are almost no pedestrians to be seen along the way except for the convoy transporting luggage.

But there are more checkpoints.

More than ten sergeants stopped in the middle of the road, "Stop!"

The knight wearing a bamboo hat reined in the reins, and the horse neighed.

"Where? Where are you going?"

More than ten sergeants saw the huge knife on the man's waist, and surrounded him vigilantly.

"This is the guide." The man handed over the guide.

The sergeant took it, "Li Er, from Chenzhou, northern Xinjiang, is this going home?"

"Yes. I went to Chang'an to do business, and when I heard that the war was about to start, I hurried home."

The sergeant looked at Lu Yin, "Is there anyone else at home in northern Xinjiang?"

The man shook his head and nodded again, "Yes."

"Who?"

"brother!"

The sergeants went through his luggage carefully and could find nothing wrong.

But there were a few pieces of gold and silver in the luggage.

The old soldier who led the team chuckled, "I'm afraid the origin of this gold and silver is unknown?" He smiled ambiguously.

This is blackmail!
His eyes suddenly narrowed, "Enemy attack!"

More than a hundred Northern Liao cavalry found this place, laughing wildly, holding their long swords high and shouting.

"Combine!"

The old soldier yelled at the man, "Why don't you go quickly?"

The man put away his burden and asked, "Have you killed this far yet?"

"Go!" The old soldier drew his sword and mounted his horse, "Ma Wu went back to report, other brothers, today, follow the old man and die for the country!"

Ma Wu scolded: "Why did you go?"

"Your mother is only one of your sons. If you die in battle, who will die for them? Get lost!" the old soldier yelled.

Ma Wu scolded: "Yeah, I can kill the enemy!"

The old pawn patted his horse's ass with the back of his knife neatly, and the horse ran away neighing.

"Hey! Why haven't you left yet?" The old pawn couldn't help being angry when he saw the man riding his horse over. "This is a fight. Those who have never experienced it will be sent to death."

"They are here."

The enemy army is coming.

The old soldier gritted his teeth, "Brothers!"

Everyone raises their knives.

There are more than a hundred Liao troops, but there are only a dozen of them.

Ten times the gap, but no one flinched.

"Follow the old man..." The old soldier shouted: "For the sake of the northern border, kill the enemy!"

The news that the Northern Liao Dynasty was about to march south had already spread throughout northern Xinjiang, and everyone was looking forward to reinforcements, money and food from Chang'an.

But wait and wait, all they waited for was the supervising army.

Money and food, no.

Reinforcements, no.

The Northern Xinjiang Army knew from top to bottom that they had become a lone army.

But for the sake of their homeland, they still dare to draw their swords in the face of powerful enemies.

Da da da!
A rider passed them from the side.

It was the traveler.

The old pawn growled, "You're looking for death! Come back! Come back!"

Da da da!
The horse rushed up happily.

Choke!

The giant knife was unsheathed.

Ahead, bloody.
