The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 230 Dongxue flew thousands of miles with the letter

After the great war in Chang'an, the lives of the people in the city did not change much. At first when the city was broken, it was heard that some people had been robbed of their money and their lives were injured. The military law was enforced in front of many civilians and their heads were beheaded.

In the next few days, the northwestern soldiers and civilians who entered the city did not commit any crimes, and the surrendered soldiers who were detained outside the city returned more or less and joined the Longyou Army. Depending on the situation, they should stay for a long time, and even occupy In Chang'an, city officials and rich gentry are ready to establish good relations with the generals of the Longyou Army who are in charge of the palace. However, the news we got is that many carts have been transporting money, food and fodder to the palace treasury one after another. outside the city.

The Shence Army, which surrendered and joined the army, also gradually moved from drill to departure and left Chang'an. This series of actions all show that the Northwest Army that entered is already preparing to evacuate. Some people don't believe it. He made an excuse to go outside the city, and followed the long-distance carriages for a while before he was convinced of this.

At the same time as the news spread, in the further direction, the news that Chang'an was broken and the emperor Li Ye fled Huazhou from the counties and counties along the way had just fermented.

Crossing Tongguan and flowing eastward along the Yellow River, Zhu Wen, who was sitting in a warm room in Bianzhou, embraced the beautiful woman who didn't know where he got it. The excitement of capturing Xuzhou and other places in the middle of the year has not passed yet. Come, with no joy on his face, he slapped the woman's buttocks, kicked her out, sat behind the desk, read the news back and forth several times, and dented the desk a little with a punch.

He never underestimated Geng Qing, and even once wanted to make Geng Qing his confidant and stay by his side to listen to him, but the other party ran to the barren northwest land to plan for someone he had never heard of, which made him feel angry.

"How can Zhu be inferior to a little-known adopted son of others? If you want a woman, I dare to find you all the women in the city. In addition to getting a wife, Zhu can even give you the women around you. Are you serious? Blind-"

Fortunately, although Geng Qing is a strategist with frequent tricks, it is rare to see Xie Tong by his side. In the past few years, he has tried his best to help him recuperate, destroying the dead and conquering the city. sure.

But it's a pity, it's not that caring, and now he is left elsewhere, sitting in Huazhou, preparing for the attack on Zhu Xuan and Zhu Jin next year.

"I just don't know how he will feel when he hears the news."

Zhu Wen crumpled the note into a ball and threw it into the stove. Looking out of the window, there were snowflakes falling in the gloomy sky, and the snowflakes gradually began to dance all over the sky.

Across the Yellow River, Huazhou.

In the warm study room, Xie Tong with a long beard coughed twice, rolled up his cuffs, and wrote a good word with a pen, but put down the pen and ink without much thought. Aside, the news that had just arrived was placed on the table At the corner, he pushed the door and walked out of the room, walked to the fence with his hands behind his back, looked up slightly at the heavy snow flying in the sky, the garden flowers and trees, and the gazebo were already covered with thick snow.

"It's really a pity that we can't conspire with one master. Brother Geng and Brother Qin, if they fight in the future, Xie will definitely not show mercy."

The wind blew snowflakes hanging on his beard and slightly stroked his beard. He bowed slightly towards the west direction of Chang'an. Not long after, he returned to the front yard. When news came, the counselor named Xie Tong took a look. Randomly thrown aside.

Back then, Geng Qing's defeated general, a woman named Tang Bao'er, got entangled with a group of yellow thieves and remnants wandering the Central Plains, attacking everywhere, and now he finally felt the truth.

"You and your master have suffered under Brother Geng's hands, how can you benefit from me."

The chuckling scholar got up and took down the saber hanging from the post, walked out of the front yard, and strode into the heavy snow.

In the next two days, the woman who was hiding somewhere in the mountains also heard about Chang'an and the emperor. Her youthful and handsome face had gone through all kinds of hardships, and she had a chivalrous temperament. Listening to the subordinate who reported the news, there was no expression on her face. Feeling happy and angry, he just silently looked at the weapon not far away, it was a saber that Master once used.

"Master, you old man is waiting, this apprentice will definitely avenge you! Even though he is already powerful now, I am not afraid, there are 2000 people around Bao'er"

However, in the afternoon, [-] soldiers and horses from Huazhou came out of the city in the snow, rushing towards the mountain with surging footsteps and soldiers' fronts at the fastest speed.

Fight fiercely, break out of the siege, and when the mountain was closed, they fought fiercely. Tang Baoer then turned westward with the remaining 1000 or [-] people and rushed into the boundary of the river.

In the same heavy snow day, the north was already covered with whiteness. It took more than half a month for the news from Chang'an to arrive here. A Youzhou had already fallen into his hands, and Shi Jingsi placed Li Kuangwei's head in front of the long case.

"That Geng Qing didn't know what to do. When he went back, he arrested his family. I heard that he has more than 20 wives, which is enough for each of us." Everyone inside laughed.

"That day, I didn't use any violence, and I didn't tear my face face to face, so there was still room for maneuver. Besides, my son Cunxiao and him are righteous brothers. They are called Geng Qing's mother, and they are also called mothers. We can't ignore this kind of affection."

Li Ke said as he looked at the bloody head on the ground.

"Just... worried, he heard the news."

Yunzhou.

The hot blood was sprinkled on the snow, dyed a crystal color, and then the iron hooves stepped on it made deep hoof prints, and the fiery red horse galloped on the snow, splashing into the snowflakes in the air, King Yu roared and slashed angrily, He knocked the oncoming Tuyuhun people into the air, under the terrifying force, his body was broken into two in the upside-down flight, and he dragged his internal organs and fell to the snowy ground.

"Crash into it—" Li Cunxiao, who was on the galloping horse, with his cloak fluttering and swinging his spear horizontally, roared like thunder.

The Flying Tiger Riders behind formed an formation, and launched a frenzied charge in the snow. In front, more Tuyuhun people rushed over. In the forest with their swords and guns raised, countless galloping war horses splashed into the snow and crashed into them. Face-to-face massacre.

This is the seventh time that Helianduo, the Tuyuhun governor, has confronted Li Cunxiao, who is known as the Flying Tiger General. During the sixth time, the guards around him were basically dead and injured. That time, the opponent even threw off his own cavalry and charged alone. Entered his army, and directly killed him in front of his big banner. If it wasn't for the personal guards, they were all warriors in the tribe, and their necks and heads might have been cut off by the opponent.

For Chang'an in the south, he had a longing for Chang'an, staring at the huge pressure in the tribe, and wanted to take advantage of the heavy snow in the north to launch a sneak attack, but when the first battle started, the tribe soldiers under him had no intention of fighting. Breaking apart, after resisting for a while, he had no choice but to give up continuing to fight, to restrain Li Keyong's idea of ​​attacking Youzhou.

In the tide-like retreat and casualties, Helianduo fled desperately with the few remaining personal guards. Not long after, he also heard the news that Chang'an was breached, and Emperor Li Ye, who was given to revitalize the Tang Dynasty, fled to Huazhou. information.

The last thought of the once prosperous Tang Dynasty was finally extinguished.

Similarly, Li Cunxiao, who cleaned up the battlefield and led his troops back to the camp to keep warm, finally heard the news from Taiyuan. He asked his personal guards to bring drinks and drank heartily, but there was one question that kept lingering on his mind. My heart is agitated.

'Brother, why did you go to Longzhou?Didn't he work with his adoptive father in Taiyuan?"

Also in a bad mood and confused, there was Li Ye, the emperor who was sitting in Huazhou far to the south, looking at the letter delivered in his hand and the messenger standing in the hall.

"What does he think of my son of heaven?!"

"Using Chang'an to do business with me, a traitor is a traitor, I don't recognize—"

Squeezing the anger and aggrievedness in his heart at this moment, Li Ye threw the letter in his hand with a 'wow', and a few pages of paper fluttered down. He shouted hysterically and called the guards, "Send the thieves here!" Messenger, let me drag it out and chop it up!!"

Then, the cracking sound of cups and cups splashed in the room.

The sound came out of the window, and in the courtyard, snowflakes were still falling all over the sky.
