Ji Tang

"General, why did you come here? You are dead, you are all dead, your brothers are all dead!"

"I really don't want to, I really don't want to, but he wants to kill me, he really wants to kill me. What do you want me to do?"

"."

Ji Song ignored them and looked at Linghu Duan. When he came, he already knew the general story of the matter from Su Lie.

"The traditions of the Linghu family are really the same!" Ji Song sighed.

This is the Longxi nobles. They never care who the emperor is, let alone who they serve, but whoever wants their military power will not even die. This is something engraved in their bones.

From the Five Hu Dynasties to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, they gradually merged with the bravery and culture of the Hu and Han families from being oppressed. Since the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, they have been active in the Central Plains. The dynasty has been changing, but they have grown stronger.

The Northern Zhou Dynasty prospered because of him, but also died because of him. The former Sui Dynasty also unified the world because of him, and finally fell because of him.One of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms back then was the Linghu family.

He thought that the other party would not be willing to be annihilated, but he still did not expect that their final resistance would be so fierce, and they would even go so far as to completely overthrow the Tang Dynasty.

Don't they know the consequences of military rebellion?No, they know it, and they do it better than anyone else, but they do it anyway.

Just when Ji Song was stunned, Linghu Duan got the news that there was no army around. This calmed his uneasy heart and looked at Ji Manman with a sneer.

"Jisong, Ji Song, you are really looking for death. If the army comes, there is really nothing I can do, but you come alone? Isn't this just looking for death? As long as we capture you, the emperor will definitely throw a wrench into the trap, and then there will be no negotiations. Got the chips.”

He seemed to have a plan in mind, and he said with a cat-and-mouse expression, "I just wonder if you are that important in the emperor's heart? Will you agree to our conditions for you?"

"Do you want to know? Hahahaha!"

Looking at Linghu Duan who was completely crazy, Ji Song's eyes were full of regret.

But this look made the other party feel that he was insulted, and he said angrily: "What are you looking at? I will hang you on the flagpole then, so that the world can see how pitiful and ridiculous the Duke they worship is!"

"Shut up and don't insult the general!"

Suddenly, a roar came out, and both Linghu Duan and Ji Song turned their heads to look, only to see a soldier glaring at Linghu Duan, as if he wanted to kill him.

"Are you crazy? How long has it been now and you are still thinking about him? We are mutiny and rebellion. Do you think surrendering will give you a way to survive? Don't be naive. The best way now is to capture Ji Song and fight to Chang'an. Below the city, force the emperor to agree to our conditions."

"Don't worry, everyone. It's not just our army. Chuanzhong is our territory. There are at least tens of thousands of people heading towards Chang'an now. As long as we"

"Shut up, I don't want to hear it. I'm not rebelling, no."

"No, we really didn't want to rebel. It's really not the case."

"."

Linghu Duan looked at everyone with disdain and wanted to quit now?It was too late, it was too late when they picked up the sword and killed their former lord. '

They know His Majesty too well, and they will never tolerate betrayers in his eyes, even if they are forced.

"Do you really think the situation has been decided?"

At this time, a faint voice came from behind, and Ji Song looked at him pitifully, as if he were looking at a clown.

"Hmph, just keep your mouth strong. What else can you do at this time? Don't think about anyone coming to save you. We have people all over Guanzhong. There are at least tens of thousands of elite troops heading towards Chang'an, including the Sixteenth Guards. Our man, if you are obedient and wait until everything is over, with your intelligence, you can still consider becoming a retainer of my Linghu family."

"It's a pity that a person like you dies. With your ability to make money, my Linghu family will be able to recover soon hahahaha~"

As if he thought of something good, he burst out laughing!
"idiot!"

Ga~
Linghu Duan's laughter stopped suddenly, and he glared at Ji Song as if he wanted to eat him alive.

"Come here, take down Ji Song!"

"promise!"

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of soldiers came towards this direction. When Pei Qian wanted to stop them, they were blocked by thousands of people and could not escape at all. He could only watch them heading towards the general.

But what was puzzling was that the people in front of them seemed not to see them. Ji Song took out a ball, lit it on fire in front of everyone, and then handed it to Su Lie, who was also confused.

"Did you see it? Throw it where there are many people!"

When the medicine rope was about to burn out, Ji Song said "throw" and Su Lie acted like a conditioned reflex and threw it towards the place where there were many people.

"Back off!"

Then Chao, with Liu Laoer's help, immediately moved behind a big tree behind him, and when he was done, he didn't forget to pull Su Lie, who was stunned.

When Daniel saw what the owner of the house took out, he immediately trembled and without saying a word, he roared at everyone: "Quick, get down!"

They were all elites in the army. Although they were in despair at this time, the extremely high-quality people on the battlefield still obeyed orders habitually. Almost as soon as the ball was thrown into the crowd, [-]% of the people fell down.

Linghu Duan only felt his heart pounding. This was his instinct after surviving on the battlefield many times, but there was obviously no danger?When his eyes turned back to the smoking iron ball not far away, his pupils instantly expanded.
Boom~
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and the ground began to shake. Everyone was stunned and their ears could not hear anything except the buzzing.

Ji Song was also shocked and had no time to check the situation. He immediately took off his earplugs and took out more than ten identical iron balls from the secret box at the bottom of the wheelchair.

"Quickly, throw all these things out, remember, then throw them away!"

Su Lie and Liu Laoer were shaking with the things in their hands. It was so scary. They were frightened when they saw the smoke and dust dissipating.

"Why are you dazed? Light a fire and throw it away! Do you want to die?" Ji Song said angrily.

"Oh~" So, after saving his life, before Linghu Duan could react, he saw the last scene of his life again.
Boom boom~
Explosions were heard one after another. When the smoke and dust cleared, those who survived stared blankly at one large crater after another, and there was total silence.
When the smoke and dust dissipated, there were wailing all over the ground, and everyone was filled with confusion. They stared blankly at everything in front of them, unable to believe that this was actually true?

Linghu Duan has long since disappeared. How many pieces was he blown into?
And he brought more than a thousand die-hards. Although there were only more than 200 people in the world during the violent explosion at this time, many people were injured in the explosion at such a close distance, and many had their eardrums shattered. , and some even had bleeding from all their orifices.

Daniel brought Pei Qian to the head of the house. After the head of the house took out the thing, he knew what it was.At the beginning, he still remembered the shock of the family owner during the first experiment, but he didn't expect that only a few years had passed?Has this thing become what it is now?
Pei Qian and Su Lie stared blankly at the disgraced general. They never thought that the mutiny would end in this way? More than 1000 people?A dozen or so unknown gadgets blew it up and made it dizzy.

"Take your people and take control of this place immediately. Everyone is on standby and will collect them all. Anyone who refuses to follow will be killed!"

"promise!"

Time passed quickly. An hour was neither long nor short, but it was enough for the cavalry to come here from Chang'an.But now, Ji Song looked solemnly in the direction of returning to Chang'an City. Could it be that what Linghu Duan said was true?

Your Majesty, what are you doing?Don't you know that this will seriously damage Guanzhong's vitality?

"General Cavalry, the interrogation has been clear!" At this time, Su Lie and Pei Qian quickly came to Ji Song and said solemnly.

"Say!"

He still had his back to the two of them, and no one could see his expression, but they knew that the general was probably furious at this time.

"Most of these people are die-hard loyalists of the Guanlong clan, and many of them come from the depths of the Qinling Mountains. According to them, there are no less than 2000 people in the village where they are located in the Qinling Mountains, and they have already begun to go there in the late Sui Dynasty. They have been transferred to the Qinling Mountains for these years and have not come out. Apart from farming, they spend most of their time training."

"and"

Su Lie said bitterly: "General, they have planned this for a long time. They have been hiding their power for decades. Qinling, the entire Qinling depths are their people, at least tens of thousands of them. above."

"Not only that, they are everywhere in the army. Although their official positions are not large, they have unknowingly placed many people in the army over the years. This mutiny was premeditated by them."

"Among these people, there are also grassland people, Turks, Uighurs, and even Goguryeo people who have been destroyed, as well as Japanese people. They have come to Guanzhong in various ways in the past few years, and there are merchants , servants, scholars, etc., all hidden among the people."

"Just a few months ago, they were slowly gathered. Many of them had their families under control and had to rely on them. Among them were many generals."

Ji Song waved his hand, indicating not to say anything!
"General?"

"Quickly prepare for war. We have no reinforcements."

Su Lie was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, his face changed drastically and he said: "You mean it's impossible, absolutely impossible. Our Tang Dynasty is as prosperous as the sun, and we can suppress the eight wastelands in order to join the sea. How is it possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. When someone deliberately indulges, everything is explained. A good arm, such a big spirit. He has used his whole life as a chess piece and the world as a chess game. He has been laying out the plan for decades. Only now is he starting to close the net and surrender. Everyone was convinced.”

Pei Qian was still a little confused, but Su Lie's face turned pale. He looked at the general in disbelief, what if... what if this was true?Then it’s self-evident who that person is!
But why would he do this?Why!

"You go and tell the soldiers that the opportunity to atone for their sins has come. As long as they survive the turmoil in Guanzhong, I promise them that the previous matters will be wiped out, and we will find a good place for them."

"Go and explore the surrounding area quickly. Don't get entangled with the other party. If you encounter an enemy, report it immediately!"

"In addition, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time. The closest place to here is Gongcheng, which is the most important weapons manufacturing city in the Tang Dynasty. It has countless military strategists and a large army stationed there. We will move there immediately."

Su Lie was stunned. Shouldn't he return to Chang'an immediately at this time?

As if she knew what he was thinking, Ji Song said: "I can't go back for the time being. If my guess is correct, Chang'an will be surrounded by now."

"then we"

"Ignore him. Since he has the ability to endure it for decades, how can he not be prepared? Are there things in Chang'an and Guanzhong that he doesn't know about?" Ji Song sneered.

"This is a military order, execute it quickly!"

"promise!"
-
On the Chang'an city wall, Li Chengqian watched all this with an expressionless face. He never thought that a sudden mutiny would turn into what it is now?

There are tens of thousands of troops outside the city, and there are nearly ten thousand cavalry going to Anu to put on armor. Baqiao has been captured. If the army of the Sixteenth Guards cannot break through the Baqiao defense line in a short time, Chang'an will be really in danger.

You must know that although the Sixteenth Guards are the guard force of Chang'an, not all the Sixteenth Guards are in Chang'an. Now, there are less than 2 guards in Chang'an. Among them are the Jinwu Guards and other royal guards.

And now, all the noble soldiers have been recruited, but even so, it is only a drop in the bucket.

After taking a final look at the mighty army under the city, he returned to the palace without looking back and went directly to the Tai Chi Hall.

At this time, in the Taiji Hall, Changsun Wuji, Xie Lian and others were already here, as were Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji, Yuchi Gong, Liu Hongji, and Gao Kan.

However, Cheng Yaojin clenched his fists but kept a calm expression on his face. Li Ji narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was concentrating with his eyes closed. Liu Hongji was like a quail and did not dare to raise his head. Only Yuchi Gong looked at the emperor angrily.

Changsun Wuji seemed to be fine, while Xie Lian and others were on pins and needles.

Surprisingly, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were also there, but nothing could be seen on their faces.

Li Chengqian's footsteps sounded in the hall. He was like a volcano about to erupt. He couldn't figure out why.Why should it be so violent when it is obvious that the danger can be nipped in the cradle?

Even if this battle is won, half of Guanzhong is still over. Father, what exactly do you want to do?
Li Shimin ignored Li Chengqian's anger. In his eyes, anger was the most useless thing.Whenever I want to be angry, I will force myself to calm down. This seems to be an innate ability.

"How is it outside the city?"

Li Shimin seemed to be talking about an insignificant thing and didn't care about the war he was about to face!
"Tens of thousands of troops have gathered outside the city. Baqiao has been captured. The soldiers of the Sixteenth Guards are temporarily unable to break through the defense line. And judging from the smoke everywhere, most of Guanzhong is probably..."

Li Chengqian didn't say any more, but everyone looked solemnly at the leader of the Tang Dynasty, who seemed to have everything under control.

"Okay, they are finally out. I have been waiting for decades for this day. Do you really think I don't know what they are doing?" Amid everyone's incredulous looks, Li Shimin actually started to get excited.

He danced and talked about the forbearance he had endured over the years and his arrangements, but as he talked, he couldn't go on.After all, no matter how good the story is, it needs good support from Guanzhong, right? (End of chapter)
