First Minister of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 207 Qin Shubao vs Yuchi Jingde

...

Qin Qiong was originally the four hussars of Wagang, only known in the Central Plains, Yuchi Jingde lived in the north for a long time, frowned and thought, but he couldn't think of such a person, at this time, Yuchi Jingde heard the sound of gold and iron, Turning his head to look, he was suddenly furious.

It was seen that Yin Qiao was leading a group of troops holding horizontal knives, splitting the prison cage, several people had been rescued, Yuchi Jingde said angrily: "The thief is so courageous", he immediately abandoned Qin Qiong and went straight to Yin Qiao.

It is impossible for Qin Qiong to give up, and immediately shouted: "The victory is not decided, where are you going?" The spear stabbed at Yuchi Jingde's back. Stretching out his arm, he firmly clamped Qin Qiong's spear under his armpit.

Then he turned around and flung himself up, intending to grab the lance. This move was Yuchi Jingde's unique skill. He turned around and grabbed the lance. It was tried and tested repeatedly, but Qin Qiong was different from ordinary people after all, and his hands were not weaker than Yuchi Jingde.

Yuchi Jingde's twist failed to snatch the lance, Qin Qiong held it firmly, and shook it vigorously, Yuchi Jingde let out a muffled snort, the tip of the lance had pierced Yuchi Jingde's rib, the rib pain had to be let go, and At this time, Yin Qiao had already rescued Li Xiaoji, Tang Jian and others.

Yuchi Jingde saw that there was nothing he could do, and immediately shouted: "Quick retreat".

Xun Xiang was at the end of his battle at this time, the iron spear in his hand had lost the first five points of strength, and his shoulder was pierced by the point of Gao Chong's lance, dripping with blood, he heard Yuchi Jingde shouting, looking around, the puppet Han army suffered casualties It was so serious, and all the prisoners escaped, and they were shocked when they found the relatives, so they had to pull their horses and run away.

Coincidentally, Li Xiaoji was rushing here, and ran into Xun Xiang head-on, Xun Xiang gritted his teeth, raised his gun and stabbed, seeing that Li Xiaoji was about to die under Xiang Xun's gun, he was shocked, pulled out the horse's side knife and stabbed him. Throw it to Xunxiang.

This move was inadvertently using the horizontal knife as a trump card. Xun Xiang wanted to kill Li Xiaoji, the clan of Li Tang, before retreating. Unprepared, the horizontal knife spun and flew towards Xun Xiang's back.

Xun Xiang fell to the ground and died on the spot.

Li Xiaoji broke out in a cold sweat, and hurried to Gao Chong's side, Gao Chong stretched out his hand and pulled him onto the horse, "Is Your Majesty injured?"

"Fortunately, Youzhi saved my life, the kindness of saving my life, I will never forget it," Lee Xiaoji said with gratitude as he sat still.

Yuchi Jingde was shocked when he saw Xunxiang died, he hurriedly patted his horse and left, gathering the remnants along the way, Qin Qiong chased and killed him for several miles, but finally let Yuchi Jingde leave because of lack of horsepower.

"It's Qin Qiong's fault that the thief general Yuchi Jingde escaped." After Qin Qiong came back, he pleaded guilty with a face full of shame.

Gao Chong laughed loudly, "Brother Shubao really deserves to be a brave general. Yuchi Jingde's so-called undeserved bravery was also injured by you. The victory of this battle depends on brother Shubao holding Yuchi Jingde in check. Nothing wrong."

"Ashamed", Qin Qiong bowed his head and said, "If Yuchi Jingde hadn't been anxious about the battle, I wouldn't have gotten away with it by chance."

In this battle, the Tang army won a great victory, killing and wounding more than [-] puppet Han soldiers, beheading the enemy generals, and rescuing Yong'an King Li Xiaoji, Minister of Industry Dugu Huai'en, Minister of Internal History Tang Jian and others, which can be described as a great victory .

On the way back to the army, seeing Qin Qiong hesitate to speak, Gao Chong said bluntly: "Brother Shubao, do you have something to say? But it doesn't matter."

"May I ask that Gao Sima's move to kill the thief with a horizontal knife just now is a trump card?" Qin Qiong saw that Gao Chong was very friendly, and also expressed his doubts.

Gao Chong was stunned when he heard it, "It's the trump card, how does Brother Shu Bao know?"

Could it be that Qin Qiong is really good at using double maces? Gao Chong probably guessed in his heart.

Sure enough, under Gao Chong's suspicious eyes, Qin Qiong opened the cloth bag hanging on the horse's side, and took out a pair of four-edged gold maces.

"To tell the truth, Gao Sima, my elder brother who passed on the mace method also has a trick of killing mace, which is quite similar."

After all, as if he was afraid of Gao Chong's misunderstanding, "Qin Qiong was just asking out of curiosity, without any second thoughts."

Gao Chong nodded and said bluntly: "My mace technique is also passed down in my family, passed down to my uncle Zhao Xuangong."

Qin Qiong was surprised when he heard the words, "But the former Duke of Sui and Qi?"

Gao Chong didn't know, so he just nodded.

"Then who was Lord Jian of Wuyang who was granted the title during the Kaihuang reign of the former Sui Dynasty?" Qin Qiong was a little excited.

"It's my great-grandfather", Gao Chong was even more puzzled.

Gao Chong's great-grandfather was Gao Bin, Gao Jiong's father.

Although his great-grandfather was quite famous back then, but now he has passed away for more than fifty years, and Gao Chong doesn't know him very well, let alone outsiders.

"It turns out that after being benefactor, please accept Qin Qiong's worship." After saying that, Qin Qiong wanted to bow down.

Gao Chong hastily stopped him, "This... what's going on, brother Shubao, tell me quickly."

"Ling's great-grandfather Wuyang Jiangong served as the governor of Qizhou and lived in Qizhou for several years. My family ancestor was convicted of a crime because of his words, and the whole family suffered. Set up the spirit seat of Duke Jian of Wuyang, and worship every day."

Qin Qiong said excitedly.

Gao Chong was dumbfounded when he heard that, it turns out that the two families still have such a relationship.

Qin Qiong's family is from Qizhou, and his grandfather and uncle Gao Jiong were born in Qizhou. Gao Chong knew this, but he didn't know that his great-grandfather Gao Bin lived in Qizhou for several years, and even saved Qin Shubao and his grandfather. A family's life.

The Gao family in Bohai has always used maces, and they are not famous for maces. It is presumably Qin Qiong's grandfather, in order to thank Gao Chong's great-grandfather, Gao Bin, for saving his life.

After knowing this reason, the relationship between the two became closer, because Qin Qiong was the second in the family, and one of his elder brothers died early, so Gao Chong called him the second elder brother Qin.

All the way back to the Bobi camp, only to learn that Li Shimin led the troops out of the camp. When I asked Changsun Wuji and others who were staying behind, it turned out that the scouts found a big victory in Meiliangchuan, and after Yuchi Jingde was defeated and fled to Puzhou, Li Shimin Immediately led [-] troops to pursue.

Gao Chong was shocked when he heard the words, and said bluntly: "The body of the king's daughter is so easy to take risks."

Changsun Wuji's fat face was full of helplessness, "I can't persuade you anymore."

Gao Chong immediately said: "Second brother Qin and I will lead Qingqi to Puzhou together, and we must ensure the safety of the king." Qin Qiong agreed without thinking.

Changsun Wuji hurriedly stopped him, "Your Majesty didn't order you to send troops, so don't act without permission, and there is General Qin Wutong in Puzhou leading troops to suppress bandits, Your Majesty will definitely join Qin Wutong."

Gao Chong heard the words and said bluntly: "Do I have a return?"

Changsun Wuji shook his head, Li Shimin was not there, Gao Chong hadn't handed over the military talisman to return, so this army was thrown back to Gao Chong's command.

"Your Majesty ordered me to lead the army to intercept Yuchi Jingde. Now that Yuchi Jingde has fled, I have the responsibility and right to pursue him since I haven't returned to my command. Is it reasonable?" Gao Chong continued to ask.

Changsun Wuji was startled when he heard the words, and looked at Fang Xuanling at the side, Fang Xuanling could only smile wryly, "It's really reasonable."

Gao Chong nodded when he heard the words, and said directly: "Don't worry about the auxiliary machine, uncle will definitely pay attention to safety." After speaking, he led the army away with Qin Qiong, leaving behind the blushing eldest grandson Wuji and the laughing Fang Xuan Ling et al.

King Xingben of Puzhou rebelled, and Li Shimin ordered Qin Wutong, the general manager of the army, to lead the army to conquer. After Yuchi Jingde was defeated in Meiliangchuan,

At first he didn't dare to cross the Baibi and return to Song Jingang's place in Huizhou, for fear of being intercepted by Li Shimin again at Baibi.

Secondly, for fear of Song Jingang's crime, he thought of fleeing all the way to the southwest, euphemistically calling it rescue Wang Xingben.
