Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 279 Song Jingang Wants to Run Away
Wei Dingbang looked around and found a mysterious man wearing a silver unicorn pattern appearing beside him.Around the man in the silver mask, dozens of people wearing black outfits and holding crossbows were staring at him.

He hunted geese all day long, but unexpectedly he was still pecked by geese at the end.Wei Dingbang was originally a soldier of the Yingyang Mansion in the early years of Daye. He belonged to the Yue cavalry.Once he was drunk, missed the fighter plane, and was whipped by the Shangguan.According to Wei Dingbang's crime, it is actually a capital crime, but he was only whipped, which already has an element of human affection.But Wei Dingbang was very unconvinced, and afterwards poured medicine into his Shangguan's meal to vent his anger. After the incident was revealed, Wei Dingbang had no choice but to take three or five good brothers and escaped from Yingyang Mansion.With no livelihood, Wei Dingbang opened a mountain and set up a cabinet, making a living by beating sap sticks, robbing and looting money, until he was subdued by Wei Daoer.

Ordinarily Wei Dingbang was under the nose of Tang Jun at this time, so he would not be so careless at all.In fact, he was not careless. In front of the hidden cave where he camped temporarily, three sentry posts were placed inside and outside, but now he still followed the other party's way. Obviously the other party was more proficient in this way.

Looking at the gleaming crossbow arrows, Wei Dingbang didn't dare to move. If he dared to make any changes, he would definitely die on the spot.

"Dare to ask what your intention is?" Wei Dingbang was also a person who came here in a big storm, but he was very calm when encountering this situation.On the surface, he is calm and expressionless, but in his heart he is speculating on the origin and identity of this mysterious person.

The man in the silver mask said hoarsely, "General Wei Dingbang with three eyes, I want to ask you, do you want to die or live!"

Wei Dingbang breathed a sigh of relief, since the other party said so, he must not have intended to kill him: "How about wanting to die, and what about wanting to live?"

The silver-faced man said: "It must be very simple, three or four hundred remnants of Liu Wuzhou, if you think about it, you can get Tang Jun to exchange a lot of rewards, but my son walked to Weize Pass, thirty miles away, and within half an hour, you Even the prisoners of the Tang Army, none of them can escape!"

"We have no enmity in the past, and we have no grievances in recent days. If we only take the life of a certain family, I will not waste Zhou Zhang like this!" Wei Dingbang said lightly: "If you have any requirements, you may as well say it clearly!"

The silver-faced man said coldly: "I want you to help me kill someone!"

Wei Dingbang said: "Who will kill?"

The silver-faced man said: "Martial Arts Marquis Chen Ying!"

Wei Dingbang sighed and said: "This step is too difficult for others. If I have the ability to kill Chen Ying, why did I fall into such a situation today? You should cut off my head with a knife."

What Wei Dingbang said is true. Although he is not Yu Chigong's direct descendant, he participated in the confrontation between Yu Chigong and Chen Ying. His personal guard of hundreds of spears, thousands of horses and horses, where can't they get out?

However, Chen Ying had less than [-] cavalry under his command, but he almost wiped out Yu Chigong's army.This seemed to be such a big gap that Wei Dingbang didn't have the slightest intention of confronting Chen Ying.

The man in the silver mask smiled and said, "You're pretty self-aware. With your scraps, it's not easy to kill Chen Ying. Half a month later, Chen Ying was returned to Chang'an, and there were only a few hundred people left before his departure." Guard, they will pass through the Rattle Sparrow Valley, you should know what to do, right?"

"If it's an ambush, there is still hope of success!" Wei Dingbang said with a smile: "As long as you prepare dry firewood and kerosene, and block the two ends, Chen Ying will be hard to fly."

The man in the silver mask chattered with a smile: "Very smart, I like dealing with smart people the most!"

"The emperor is willing to starve his soldiers to death, so he won't miss his brother Baishi?" Wei Dingbang said: "Killing the founding army of the Tang Dynasty is not a small crime. ?”

"Ten thousand strings!"

"not enough!"

"Add a thousand stones of grain!"

"It's still not enough!"

"Don't be too greedy!" The silver-masked man said coldly, "Although Chen Ying's life is expensive, ten thousand guan is already a lot."

"This money can be earned with life, but it needs to be spent with life!" Wei Dingbang said: "With Chen Yingzhi's ability, it's really not easy to ambush him!"

"what do you want?"

"Ten thousand coins, one thousand shi of grain, and five hundred horses!" Wei Dingbang said: "After the matter is completed, our brothers must run outside the customs to survive!"

"Don't you ask why we tried every means to assassinate Chen Ying?" the man in the silver mask asked.

"Some things have to be done, otherwise I won't be able to pass this test." Wei Dingbang sighed softly, recalling all his experiences, he sighed: "Since it is unbearable to live, you might as well be heroic in doing things, just take me as an example , There are people in my heart, if anyone hurts them, I will do everything possible to take their lives, so why die? Chen Ying is invincible, invincible, killing thousands of people, countless have blood feuds with him, you want to kill him , is there anything that can confuse me?"

The man in the silver mask clapped his hands lightly, and after a while, several soldiers in black clothes carried two large boxes and entered the cave.Looking at the four majestic black-clothed warriors struggling, the weight of these two boxes should be quite heavy.

Two large black boxes were placed heavily on the ground, and there was a "dong dong" echo in the hidden cave. Wei Dingbang turned his head, but saw the box was opened, and a bright silver light pierced his eyes.

"This is high-quality official silver. 50 taels are an ingot. There are two boxes, each with sixty pieces, a total of 6000 taels!" The silver masked man said: "This is just a deposit. After the matter is completed, someone will send over the other half." !"

……

In Huizhou City, Song Jingang looked at the soldiers of the Tang Army outside the city, and the soldiers of the Tang Army had entered the border again.Following Fan Junzhang's defeat in Shenchi, he was captured alive by Yu Guni, a general under Chen Ying's command. Outside Weize Pass, Yu Chigong and Xun Xiang surrendered to the Tang army.In fact, Yuchi Gong and Xun Xiang did not want Chen Ying to surrender.

Because Princess Pingyang is at Weize Pass, any fool knows where to go.Song Jingang didn't expect the situation to take a turn for the worse. He never expected that Liu Wuzhou would have [-] elite soldiers, and the danger of Yanmen Pass would prevent Chen Ying from staying at Yanmen Pass, let alone half a year, even three months. , will definitely retreat, but it is good now, with Chen Ying taking Yanmen Pass, Lou Fan Pass, and soldiers encircling Taiyuan, Liu Wuzhou is at the end of his rope.

Song Jingang was very dissatisfied with Liu Wuzhou.

Let alone [-] elite soldiers defending Yanmen Pass without lack of armor, even if [-] pigs were put in Yanmen Pass, Chen Ying would not be able to break through the pass in just one day.

I don't know what Liu Wuzhou was thinking, he couldn't even guard Yanmen Pass, but he actually wanted to guard Taiyuan, this is too naive.

At this time, the Tang army increased its troops more and more.

In fact, with Chen Ying's successive victories at Feng, Sheng, Shuo, and Yanmen Pass, and the Turks fleeing far away, Li Yuan is already confident to clean up Hedong. The only thing that is different from the history is this Battle of Hedong, not Li Yuan Shimin led, but Li Jiancheng.

"Report!" The messenger sentry cavalry dragged their long-mouthed horses and galloped over from the side. "Eighteen miles to the west, there are a large number of Tang army cavalry. The number is unknown. It will take half an hour to approach Huizhou at most..."

"Get out, my lord." Song Jingang's brother, lieutenant Zhang Tiehu suggested to Song Jingang with difficulty.

At this time, the Tang army had surpassed the Tianxing army in terms of strength.Although the news of Liu Wuzhou's defeat was blocked by Song Jingang.But this news will never be hidden for too long.Once the soldiers and horses in the city learn that Liu Wuzhou's army has defeated Yanmen Pass and Shuozhou is lost, the morale of the entire army may be lost, and they will be slaughtered at that time.

"Where can we retreat? Taiyuan is already in jeopardy. Even if we retreat to Taiyuan, the difference is that we will die sooner or later!" Song Jingang yelled at Zhang Tiehu.

He knew that there was not much time left for him to make a decision. Either he would resolutely send troops to intercept the Tang army's reinforcements, or he would resolutely retreat, or wait for the Tang army to cooperate in one place.Fighting against the city, they do not occupy any advantage at all.

They didn't know how many reinforcements the Tang army had coming from the west, or who led them, and they didn't know how many troops were needed to intercept it to be effective.The number of troops is second to none. The key point is that even if you win this battle, it will not benefit the overall situation at all.

Strategic passivity is the deadliest thing.

"Go east and seek refuge with Dou Jiande!" Zhang Tiehu said: "We still have nearly [-] soldiers and horses. Even if we go to Dou Jiande's side, Dou Jiande will not treat the King badly!"

Song Jingang said, "But Song Jia?"

Song Jia is the son of Song Jingang, who is less than one year old now.

"Jia'er can't keep it anymore!" Zhang Tiehu gritted his teeth and said, "Taiyuan has become a desperate place now. Even if the king leads the army to Taiyuan, what can change? Why does a man have no wife? Marry again if the wife is gone, and the son will be reborn if the son is gone. , what are you afraid of!"

Song Jingang's heart was moved, yes, why does a man have to worry about not having a wife?

In this era, whoever has soldiers and generals is the grass head king.But now that the Tang army is powerful, he has no chance to compete for the world, but once he joins Dou Jiande, it is still unknown who will win the battle in Hebei.

Although Song Jingang knew that he had lost his wife and children, his heart was bleeding from pain.But as a hero, he still has the courage to stop when he is ready.

Song Jingang said: "At midnight today, I will retreat eastward from the east city gate. Tiehu, after you stay behind, I will give you three thousand soldiers and horses to launch a feint attack to the south of the city at night. As long as you persist for half an hour, you will immediately withdraw to the city. At dawn After that, wait for an opportunity to retreat."

However, at this time, there were bursts of cheers in the Tang army formation outside the city.

"The Great Tang is mighty, the Great Tang is victorious!"

"The Great Tang is mighty, the Great Tang is victorious!"

It turned out that Chen Ying broke Yanmen Pass and rescued Pingyang Princess Li Xiuning before Yu Chigong broke through Weize Pass. This news made Li Jiancheng heave a sigh of relief.

Li Jiancheng took the good news and informed the three armies.At the same time, he said to Wei Zheng, "Now Huizhou can be taken care of slowly!"

"I'm afraid Song Jingang won't give us this time to take it easy!" Wei Zheng and Xu Shiji said almost at the same time.

Li Jiancheng was very surprised.

Wei Zheng explained: "Liu Wuzhou was defeated, Song Jingang will never stick to Huizhou!"

Xu Shiji nodded and said, "Escape is Song Jingang's only way out.
