Ji Tang

Chapter 1209 Master Qiao looked fiercely!
But he wasn't idle either. Now that he knew the cannibal's plan, he just had to act accordingly.There are no unique weapons or tactics in this world. As long as you know the opponent's trump card and find a way to restrain it, it's no big deal.

It goes without saying that the power of the catapult is unstoppable. No one can stop hundreds of kilograms of stone from falling on the top of the city.Therefore, direct resistance is unreliable. There is no other way except heavy casualties.

But don’t worry too much. The city wall of Ximenguan is made of earthen concrete made of volcanic ash, and the inside is entirely made of huge rocks.Although catapults are powerful, if you want to break through Guancheng, you can't even think about it without hundreds of them bombarding one point for several months.What's more, it's so accurate, tsk tsk!
But it is necessary to be on guard. In fact, the most convenient way is to destroy the enemy's catapult.But if you want to do this, you must send people out, and you have to open the city gate to go out. If the big cannibal catches the opportunity, what's the point?
After thinking for a long time, he finally thought of a way, which was to slightly raise the city wall.

As long as a person hides behind the city wall, the angle of the catapult will not hit him at all. The most likely possibility is that he will be ejected back from the wall inside.Therefore, it is necessary to lower the height of the inner city wall or even demolish the inner wall.

In this way, even if the catapult throws stones onto the city wall, there is a high probability that they will bounce directly into the pass.Even if there is gravel, you can still use a shield to block it.

However, in this case, no one can be inside the pass close to the city wall, and this will be the hardest hit area.

"Come here, please invite Duke Lu and Duke Zhai Yang to come and tell me that I have something to discuss with you!"

"promise!"

The two of them rushed to the small courtyard immediately after receiving the news. When they saw them coming in, Ji Song quickly called them over.After telling him his thoughts, both of them are veterans, and it can be seen at a glance whether they can become a couple.

"Hold on! This way we can minimize the losses. No matter how you vote, I don't care about you. As long as the city wall doesn't collapse, they still can't do anything."

Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up after hearing this, he slapped his thigh and said excitedly.

"Yes, there is no need to worry about the scattered gravel and our shield. We have plenty of shields."

Guo Xiaoke stroked his beard and thought deeply: "You said that if they mistakenly thought that we had received a heavy blow, they would use catapults to suppress us, and then send troops to attack the city."

"It's so possible!"

Cheng Yaojin jumped three feet high, patted Lao Guo on the shoulder and said with a sinister smile: "That's not all. If we pretend to be powerless and give them some hope of attacking the city, we can't resist it every time." Come on, do you think he will continue to send people to kill us?"

Ji Song smiled when he heard this, threw away the pen in his hand, and turned back to recuperate.

Grandma’s are foxes that have been around for thousands of years. With the two of them here, they are still afraid of a ball!

But Pingyang was stunned when he heard this. Has the disadvantage turned into an advantage in the blink of an eye?Are you still going to use a show of weakness to seduce the enemy to death?Is it because I am ignorant, or has the world changed?

Why does she feel like she's behind the times?

It wasn't until I watched the two yin people leaving with a mean smile that I realized that Ji Song was already gone.
Things in the world are like this, and people always come up with solutions.

As soon as the two men returned to close the door, they immediately called their men to demolish the inner wall. Everyone was puzzled, but after explanation, they all took action immediately.

The appearance of the catapult caught Ji Song off guard. Fortunately, he discovered it in time and had countermeasures in place. Otherwise, when the Great Eater was ready, the unprepared Tang Dynasty would have suffered heavy losses!
But this incident also reminded him that his enemies are not only the enemies in front of him, but also the poisonous snakes hidden behind him that are invisible in the dark. They stare at him all the time and give him a break from time to time.

Although he is not afraid, is he disgusting?

Soon, the entire Western Region, from Yumen Pass to Ximen Pass, all the governor's mansions and Changshi's mansions received orders from the general.The areas that had not been cleared before continued to be cleaned up. Even Liu Hongji got the news and strictly ordered him to completely clear out all cancers in the territory.

Liu Hongji was very puzzled when he got the news, but after the messenger said a few words in his ear, his eyes slowly turned red visibly.

"The order!"

"From today onwards, no prisoners will be taken, and those who do not surrender will be killed without mercy!"

As soon as the messenger left, Pei Renji was a little surprised and said: "What is the reason for this general's order?"

"What's the point?"

Liu Hongji said with red eyes: "That's what I'm saying. Damn it, I've finally seen it clearly. Compared with them, what I did before was nothing!"

Then Pei Renji briefly explained what happened at Ximen Pass, and now Pei Renji's eyes turned red.After saying that, he picked up the knife and went out, and then heard screams outside.
In the Beiting Protector's Mansion, Qiao Shiwang is visiting an old friend today. He was an acquaintance when he was in Chang'an. News came from the day before yesterday that he was visiting today.

Qiao Shiwang didn't think much about it. After all, he was here, how could he not see him?
Although he lost his military power during this period, he was still enjoying his leisure time.He knew what he had done before. This time the general only surrendered his military power, which was already in His Majesty's favor.Otherwise, according to that person's temperament, he would most likely be transferred back to Chang'an.

"Daduhu, people are coming!"

Qiao Shiwang raised his eyes and saw an extremely handsome young man appearing in front of him.Even though it wasn't the first time I saw this face that deserved a beating, I still couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

Some people are born to rely on their appearance to make a living, and this is the one in front of me.

"I've seen the Great Protector!"

The visitor was smiling and talking happily. If they didn't know that he was a real man, some people would believe him if he said he was a beautiful woman disguised as a man!
"My dear brother, I am exempt from the gift!"

Even if you feel unhappy, you still have to have the respect you deserve.If you don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, who would let people put high branches on their heads?
That's right, this person's surname is Zhang, and his given name is Xinzhi. As for his identity, it's okay not to mention it!
People who can often come and go, or even live in the princess's mansion, what other identity can they have besides the faces raised by those lawless things?
After three rounds of drinking, Qiao Shiwang really didn't want to go around in circles with the other party, so he asked directly: "Why did Xin Zhizhi come to Beiting? Are you tired of staying in Chang'an and want to come to the Western Regions to have fun?"

They are all popular people in Chang'an, Zhang Zhixin didn't take it seriously, he just smiled bitterly and said: "You think my little brother wants to come, isn't there nothing we can do about it!"

Then he mentioned the purpose of coming west this time, but Qiao Shiwang remained silent.Now all he wanted to do was scold his mother, and he even wanted to kill this bastard directly.

Looking for trouble for Ji Song?Darling, are you asking about who has the final say in the Western Region now, and you want to cause trouble for that person?Even if he was deprived of military power now, he wouldn't even dare to fart.

Because I dare not!
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Ji Song is now the king of the Western Regions. He has hundreds of thousands of elite border troops of the Tang Dynasty. Are you sure you can provoke such a person?Besides, they are fighting for your Li family now. Even if you are a bastard, you can wait until the enemy is beaten back.

He can now imagine that if word of this gets out, the entire Western Region will be fried!

No, I absolutely can't get involved in this matter. Even if I don't do it as the Protector of the Beiting Protectorate, I can't get involved even if I go back to Chang'an and lie down.Regardless of whether it succeeds or fails, anyone involved in this matter will definitely not end well.

His Majesty may not kill him, but what about Ji?Don't think that because the Ji family is separated, it means that the Ji family is weak.He has been in the Western Regions for so many years, and under his rule, there are no less than ten families related to the Ji family.And these are all directly related, and those who are related will definitely scare people to death. "My dear brother, I am afraid this will be wrong for my brother."

"Protector, someone from Chang Shi's Mansion is here!"

Just when he was about to refuse, the bodyguard suddenly came to the yard and said.

Qiao Shiwang suddenly thumped, and regardless of Zhang Xinzhi's ugly expression, he quickly said: "Please!"

When the personal guards left, even a fool Qiao Shiwang knew that this matter was not simple.As soon as this letter arrived, Chang Shi's Mansion arrived immediately. If he hadn't known the news about Zhang Xinzhi in advance, he would have cut off his head and played it as a ball!

Looking back at Zhang Xinzhi, he muttered: "I don't know anything about Brother Zhang's purpose of coming to the Western Regions, and you didn't say anything. I believe you understand what I mean?"

Then he stared into the other person's eyes and said, "What do you think?"

Zhang Xinzhi's face changed drastically, and he wanted to say something, but he only heard a sonorous sound and a flash of white light.

"You are so cruel."

Holding his neck, blood spurted out. Zhang Xin died without knowing why.

Looking at Zhang Xinzhi who was dead on the ground, Qiao Shiwang's expression changed several times, and then he acted as if nothing had happened.
-
Xu Jingzong was a little proud. This man should still be a good person.No, people didn't take him seriously at all at first, but now he has become a long history of the Western Region.Although it is only temporary, the rights are real.

I have been to this mansion several times a year before, but without exception, it was the most inconspicuous and even disliked group of people.Today is different from the past.

Just when he was thinking about how to handle the other party later and venting his anger, he suddenly heard chaos ahead.

"Oops, someone is trying to assassinate the Protector, please come quickly!"

"There is an assassin, please follow me and kill him!"

"."

The sounds of clashing weapons, shouts of killing, and commotions came and went.

Xu Jingzong suddenly thought of something and said with a very ugly face: "Let's go and have a look!"

He didn't care about the obstruction of his own bodyguards.

The courtyard was in a mess.I saw a very handsome young man holding a sharp sword, lying on the ground in a daze.The body had already been chopped and bloody.

Qiao Shiwang's hair was disheveled, and his face looked ugly amidst the protection of everyone.And there were many wounds on his body, and he looked like he was fighting fiercely, which made Xu Jingzong twitch involuntarily.

When he saw the person coming, Qiao Shiwang, who was in shock, ran over as if he saw a savior. In just a few steps, he almost fell down several times. This was enough.

"Xu Changshi, you came at the perfect time. Someone actually assassinated this Protector. You must make the decision for this Protector!"

Xu Jingzong ignored him and came to the body. Even if he saw this honor, he had to feel pity.Of course he knew who this person was, and he also knew what he was doing in the Western Region.

He hadn't taken it seriously before, but when the news about Ximen Pass came, he knew that these people had to deal with it.Originally, he didn't want to deal with these people, they were really disgusting.

Regardless of whether it is me or the people behind me, anyone who is pursuing something will avoid those people, and I am no exception.But it's different now, the other party is anxious.

Liu Hongji led his army to kill everyone in the Western Regions. Anyone related to those people was killed one by one. He also collected some prisoners before, but now, no chickens or dogs are left!
Chambers of commerce, caravans, and stations related to those people are all targets of severe crackdowns.If there is the slightest movement, kill!

He knew that these people had completely angered the general this time.It should be said that I saw His Majesty's face and gave those people a warning.But this time I am ready to completely break up.

Dare you give the big man-eating catapult the blueprint at this time?What do they think?Don’t you have any brains in doing things?
Do you really think that your identity will be fine?too naive!
"Da Duhu is such a good trick!"

Qiao Shiwang looked confused, as if he didn't understand Xu Jingzong's words at all.Seeing him like this, he suddenly laughed for some reason.

"let's go!"

Qiao Shiwang was too decisive. He had reason to believe that he immediately made up his mind to kill this person after learning that he was coming.Unexpectedly, there was also a play in which a man went to the Protectorate's Mansion to assassinate the Protector?It's a shame he figured it out!

Until Xu Jingzong could no longer be seen, Qiao Shiwang left everyone behind and sat on the stone bench to meditate.He didn't even look at Zhang Xinzhi on the ground.If it weren't for the person behind him, what qualifications would he have to call himself a brother?

"Here's the order, from now on, this governor will be behind closed doors to thank guests, and no one will be seen, no matter who they are!"

"promise!"

He didn't know if he could hide this incident, but one thing he knew clearly was that he would never have any contact with those people in the future.

When Zhang Xinzhi revealed the so-called plan to deal with Ji, he knew that whoever had anything to do with this matter would die.It's too bold and too brainless.Who is Ji Song?Only these ignorant and fearless people have the courage to deal with that person.

Xu Jingzong walked out of the Protectorate's Mansion and ordered the people behind him: "Send a letter to the general immediately, and send someone to keep an eye on this place. Even if a fly comes, you must know whether it is a male or a female!"

"promise!"
-
Counties in the Western Region are embarking on large-scale construction in full swing. Although they were led by people from the academy in the past, the name was not justified. In addition, many places have intersections with people from Chang'an. Even if they want to make a difference, they can't do anything. .

But things are different now. Hundreds of counties have been established in the Western Region at once, and the cancer has been eliminated. This is the time for them to flex their muscles.

Build bridges and roads, build cities, and open up fields.

Without the constraints of the Protectorate and interference from the outside world, the land of the Western Region is undergoing astonishing changes at a speed visible to the naked eye.Acres and acres of fertile farmland have been opened up, and roads are quickly looking into the distance.Cities rose from the ground, and the population gathered and developed astonishingly.Everything tells the world that the Western Region is not a barbaric land.
