Editing of the ten loyal ministers and the emperors standing up

Chapter 190 Battle of Suiyang, Death of Zhang Xun! (Ten thousand a day, hey hey hey, complete the apology)

Finally return to the blissful banquet of the Tang Dynasty!

The Anshi Rebellion, the Maweipo Incident, Zhang Xun and General Nan deeply stimulated the nerves of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Longji's expression eventually changed from anger, to shock, to numbness, and finally to relief.

Yang Guozhong and Gao Lishi were silent, and Yang Yuhuan also looked at everything on the sky sadly.

Yang Yuhuan couldn't help shouting in pain:

"Saburo!"

Li Longji gave her a reassuring look, then took her hand to comfort her.

Prince Li Heng and Chen Xuanli were both dumbfounded and did not dare to look directly at the angry Yang Guozhong.

Yang Guozhong was also furious!

He died in the mutiny.

Yang Guozhong jumped to his feet and cursed:

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince and Chen Xuanli have rebelled. They must be imprisoned in the sky prison..."

Before Yang Guozhong finished speaking, he felt a pain in his forehead, and he suddenly realized that a black shadow was hitting him.

Yang Guozhong watched all this blankly, and suddenly realized that it was His Majesty the Emperor Li Longji who did the trick. He hit himself hard with a wine glass.

Prince Li Heng and Chen Xuanli were stunned for a moment, and finally knelt down in panic to plead guilty. Both of them looked sadly waiting for Li Longji's fate.

Li Longji, on the other hand, only felt tired. He glanced at Yang Yuhuan next to him with distress, and then looked at the civil and military officials.

"Prime Minister, there is no need to say more. I am old, and this curtain is a warning to me. I have done something wrong after all.

Even if we wake up now, I'm afraid it's too late. There will definitely be a civil strife in Datang. Fortunately, we are prepared, and fortunately we still have a chance to start over.

An Lushan must be destroyed, but the Tang Dynasty cannot be destroyed in the hands of me, Li Sanlang.

The prince is not wrong, and General Chen is not wrong either. I wish I could punish myself now. Everything is wrong with me. "

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

"What's wrong with you? It's all the fault of that traitor An Lushan!"

……

Hearing His Majesty the Emperor's words of self-reproach, the nobles and ministers bowed down one after another, and all tried to persuade Li Longji.

Gao Lishi was watching quietly from the side, and Mu Ran discovered in horror:

Li Longji seemed to have aged ten years at this moment, no longer living up to the high-spirited Li Sanlang back then.

Li Longji sighed, and then said,

"Well, it's my fault after all. My dear friends, please stop forcing me and give me a decent exit.

After all, there is no room for sand in my eyes. After handling the Shi Siming Rebellion in Anlu Mountain, I will immediately retire from the throne of emperor.

As for military affairs, Ge Shuhan, Feng Changqing, Gao Xianzhi, Guo Ziyi of Shuobei Army, and Zhang Xun of Zhenyuan County are jointly responsible for countering the rebellion!

I will issue an edict to them to immediately lead troops and recruit elites to put down the turmoil. "

Finally, Li Zilongji held on with his last breath and said:

"Heng'er, if this is over, you will ascend the throne of the emperor, and I will return to Luoyang to be the supreme emperor.

Everything will be entrusted to you. You must be a good emperor of the Tang Dynasty and don't follow your father's example. "

"No... My father is in his prime, and it's hard for a child to bear such a heavy trust."

Prince Li Heng quickly refused, but Li Longji focused his gaze on the sky and said calmly:

"God will not stop me from the Tang Dynasty. I hereby warn you that God's will cannot be violated. I, Li Longji, have made enough achievements in this life, so please let me exit with dignity!

If you are filial enough, you should stop disobeying me. "

Li Longji's words were so serious that Li Heng did not dare to answer any more and could only nod in agreement.

All the officials were shocked and discussed a lot!

Li Taibai looked at all this drunkenly, sighed slightly, and then drank another glass of wine.

……

With the last hope, Nan Jiyun came to Ningling,

"Mr. Zhang treats me well. Now that Suiyang is in trouble, how can I sit back and ignore it?"

As a former subordinate of Zhang Xun, Ningling guard Lian Tan heard that Suiyang was in trouble and immediately ordered three thousand soldiers and horses!

He and Nan Jiyun returned to help, but after breaking through the siege and entering the city again, only a thousand people were left in the reinforcements.

Zhang Xun and Nan Jiyun could both choose to leave, but they ultimately chose to stay. Suiyang would be doomed, but these heroes were destined to be immortal in this city forever!

The call for help failed, and the officers and soldiers in the city were extremely tired and hungry, and became increasingly weak. At this time, all the grass roots, tree bark, snakes, insects, rats, and ants were eaten, and the war horses were also killed to satisfy their hunger.

Finally, Zhang Xun made a shocking decision - he killed his concubine and distributed it to all the soldiers!

However, this "food" was limited after all. In order to continue to resist, Zhang Xun had no choice but to order that the people in the city be used as the last "ration".

From August to October, the Suiyang defenders used this cruel method of "cannibalism" to

Maintaining an unimaginable survival, more than a thousand of Suiyang's defenders died one after another, and in the end only 400 were left. The rebel soldiers hid in the chassis under the ladder. The people behind pushed the chassis to avoid arrows.

The war drums at the top of the city sounded, and the defenders moved in an orderly manner under the command of the officers.

Gusts of wind and waves blew by, and the air smelled of sweat and blood.

Countless noises arose.

"Come on! Attack the city!"

The rebel commander shouted, and the fierce-looking rebels rushed out from inside, using their hands and feet to quickly climb the ladder.

On the ninth day of October, when the rebels launched another attack, Zhang Xun and his soldiers were already exhausted.

Zhang Xun kowtowed to the west and said:

"The defense of the isolated city has been exhausted and cannot be saved. I cannot serve the country to Your Majesty while I am alive. After my death, I will definitely turn into a ghost to kill the thieves.

Suiyang was finally captured, all remaining defenders in the city were killed, and Zhang Xun was captured.

Above the sky, the ferocious-looking Yin Ziqi came to Zhang Xun.

At this time, Zhang Xun was in a very embarrassed state, with a haggard face and no expression at all. He was like a mummy, drifting in the wind, with a candle that could be extinguished at any time...

"Zhang Xun, I thought you had three heads and six arms, but now it seems that you are nothing more than that!"

Zhang Xun no longer had the strength to speak, or even to lift his arms, otherwise he would have committed suicide to serve the country.

"I heard that your Excellency screamed every time he fought, his canthus was torn and blood flowed, and his teeth were shattered. He was so tough. Hahahaha! Now you have become a prisoner of my subordinates. How do you feel about it?"

Zhang Xun ignored him, and Yin Ziqi was secretly angry, but he couldn't bear to do it in public.

After thinking for a moment, Yin Ziqi had a mocking look on his face, and finally remembered An Qingxu's instructions and said,

"Nowadays, in the imperial court, treacherous people are in power, and the public is worried about the country and the people. At this time, we are doing our best to fight against the thieves. This is really our great fortune!

Zhang Xun, why don’t you surrender quickly! "

Finally, Zhang Xun, who clearly had no strength at all, said weakly,

"You are a shameless thief. How could I associate with such despicable people as I have been blessed by God?"

"No need to say more, if you want to kill or behead me, please do as you wish!"

Yin Ziqi's expression darkened and he whispered in Zhang Xun's ear:

"As long as Duke Zhang is willing to surrender, his life will be saved and he will still have glory and wealth!"

"Stop talking to me anymore!"

"Are you really going to die for Li Longji?"

Zhang Xun lowered his head and said nothing.

"That man is stupid and immoral. There is no point in being loyal to such an emperor!"

There was a hint of hatred in Yin Ziqi's tone, "What's the use of being loyal to him!"

Zhang Xun finally looked behind him melancholy and said,

"Zhang Xun did it for the Tang Dynasty and all the people of the world. I'm afraid Zhang Xun's sins will never be cleansed!

There is no need to say anything about the wild dog. If you want to kill or cut into pieces, please do as you please. "

"Okay, okay, I want to see if your words are tough or if my sword is sharp!"

Yin Ziqi was so angry that he drew his sword and was about to stab it into Zhang Xun's mouth. Everyone looked at this scene in horror.

Before execution, Yin Ziqi pried open his teeth and found that only three teeth remained.

Zhang Xun cursed and said, "I died for your father. You are a pig and a dog. How can you survive for a long time by seeking refuge with the traitors?"

Yin Ziqi admired his integrity and wanted to release him.

The lieutenant general said: "He is a man of integrity, how can he be willing to be used by me? Moreover, he has won the military's heart and cannot be kept."

Yin Ziqi then used a knife to force Zhang Xun to surrender, but Zhang Xun refused to yield.

Yin Ziqi again forced Nan Jiyun to surrender, but Nan Jiyun did not respond.

Zhang Xun shouted: "Nan Ba, this man is dead. You cannot surrender to the unjust people!"

Nan Jiyun smiled and said: "A man has his own things to do and things he doesn't do. You know me, how dare I not die!"

Unwilling to surrender, Zhang Xun was killed together with thirty-six others including Yao Menyan and Lei Wanchun. He died at the age of forty-nine.

A thick voice came from above the sky:

[It is a fool to do something without knowing what cannot be done;

Knowing that something cannot be done but not doing it is a wise man;

Knowing that something cannot be done but doing it is a sage. 】

Zhang Xun died, regretfully with his eternal infamy.

　Today’s fifth update is about paying off the debt. Thank you brothers for your understanding. Hehehe, I will definitely pay attention next time.
