Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 265 Self-destructing the Great Wall ([-])

Staring at Gao Xianzhi kneeling 'in front of' him, Bian Lingcheng laughed again, no matter how awesome you are Gao Xianzhi, you will still kneel in front of me now, and you will be beheaded by me later like Feng Changqing.

"As the deputy commander of the Tianwu Army, Gao Xianzhi was responsible for commanding the troops to destroy the rebels, but he retreated without a fight. He lost hundreds of miles of territory in the Tang Dynasty, and embezzled the army's rations. He failed my expectations. He should be executed for the crime. Wei!"

His Majesty wants to execute himself!
Gao Xianzhi's hands were trembling, and he was more indignant and unwilling than Feng Changqing just now, but the imperial decree has come down, is he going to resist the decree?The king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die!
Gao Xianzhi gritted his teeth, and pointed at Bian Lingcheng angrily: "It must be you, the eunuch, who was talking nonsense in front of His Majesty. I retreated without fighting. This is my crime. I plead guilty. But you, Bian Lingcheng, were not the one who stole the military rations." Sincerity! How dare you plant it on me!"

As soon as Gao Xianzhi heard the imperial decree saying that he had embezzled military rations, Gao Xianzhi knew that this was Bian Lingcheng's framing and revenge, and he felt deeply unwilling and wronged.

"Generals, you have people working with Gao Xianzhi every day. Has anyone ever seen me, Gao Xianzhi, embezzling military rations? I, Gao Xianzhi, have led the army for nearly 30 years and fought countless battles. I have never treated my soldiers badly. My majestic deputy commander, You Jinwu General, Hexi Jiedu Envoy, Duke of Miyun County, Kaifu Yitong Third Division, why should I steal military rations? Tell me, I, Gao Xianzhi, have not been wronged!" Gao Xianzhi looked at the generals present, as well as King Rong Li Wan, and shouted loudly road.

"The general is wronged! We are all willing to appeal for the general!" How could the generals not know Gao Xianzhi's character, let alone Gao Xianzhi's embezzlement of military rations, but Gao Xianzhi retreated to Tongguan. , Tongguan is empty, I am afraid it has been attacked by the rebel cavalry, and the rebels have already entered Guanzhong, Chang'an City is hard to protect, and the Tang Dynasty is in danger.Gao Xianzhi retreated without a fight, not only without fault, but with great merit!

They glared at Bian Lingcheng one after another. At this moment, everyone could guess that this villain must be responsible for not only killing Feng Changqing, but also Gao Xianzhi.

"Reverse, rebellious! The emperor's order must not be disobeyed, and the king and minister must die! Gao Xianzhi, you will not be able to resist the order!" Bian Lingcheng shouted in panic.

"Gao Xianzhi dare not—resist the edict!" Gao Xianzhi gritted his teeth, no matter how much grievance he felt in his heart, since His Majesty had given him the death penalty, he had no intention of rebelling against the edict.

Gao Xianzhi walked to Feng Changqing's body.

In my memory, Feng Changqing was a witness from humble beginnings to prominent ones, and he was the one who single-handedly promoted Feng Changqing.In the past, the two cooperated to attack the enemy, and they were always seamless, and they could be called the best partners.But today, he watched Feng Changqing die in front of him, and he never thought that he would die with Feng Changqing himself.

In fact, at this moment, Gao Xianzhi's heart was completely desperate, and he was still chilling!He didn't blame the villain for deceiving Tang Xuanzong, but Tang Xuanzong's imperial decree came down without any verification at all, and he and Feng Changqing, two generals, were directly bestowed to death.

You know, they have fought for the Great Tang for decades, and they have made countless achievements. No matter what the crime is, shouldn't they be checked?
That's all, that's all!
"Your Majesty, I, Gao Xianzhi, have also gone!" Chilling and desperate, Gao Xianzhi picked up the sword that Feng Changqing had killed himself, and instantly slammed it on his neck and died.

"General Gao!" The generals yelled, not only Gao Xianzhi killed himself too fast, but also a hundred imperial guards Mo Dao Shou stood aside, they didn't have time to do anything to stop him.

Gao Xianzhi's body fell next to Feng Changqing's. The blood of the two mixed with the stone slabs in the lobby, which was extremely coquettish!
The two generals just died together.

They had nothing to say about Feng Changqing's death. After all, Feng Changqing had lost consecutive battles and lost the eastern capital of Luoyang, allowing An Lushan to become emperor in Luoyang, which had a huge impact.

But Gao Xianzhi's death was completely wronged, this is not only heartbreaking, but also chilling.

When Feng Changqing died just now, Rong Wang Li Wan cried out, and now seeing Gao Xianzhi also died unjustly in front of him, Rong Wang Li Wan didn't even come up, and passed out directly.

Rong Wang Li Wan was the sixth son of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. He was a very elegant and gentle person, and he was always favored by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty.Although he doesn't have the ability to lead troops in battle, and being a marshal this time is just a symbol, but he is loyal to Datang, and his heart of worry about Datang is real, and he is also a sad person.

As a marshal, he actually just watched Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi die in front of him one after another.Especially Gao Xianzhi, although Gao Xianzhi is the one who actually commanded the army, but Li Wan is the marshal. If there is any crime, Gao Xianzhi can't let it all be recited. Just now he should stand up and stop it. Even if he resists the order, he should protect Gao Xianzhi was right, he shouldn't just watch Gao Xianzhi die unjustly like this!
"Rong Wang!" The generals were horrified, not only Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi died one after another, even the Marshal Rong Wang passed out.

"Hahahaha!" On the contrary, Bian Lingcheng couldn't help laughing proudly.

Bian Lingcheng's smile really angered everyone!

All the generals at the scene glared at Bian Lingcheng, the murderous intent in their eyes was undisguised, as if in the next moment, everyone would swarm up and tear Bian Lingcheng apart.

"You, you——" Bian Lingcheng was so frightened that he quickly stopped laughing, his face turned pale and full of panic.

"I am the supervisor sent by His Majesty. I have His Majesty's imperial decree in my hand. Do you want to resist the decree?" Bian Lingcheng held up the imperial decree in his hand and hid behind the two imperial guards, Mo Dao Shou.

The generals were taken aback, they gritted their teeth and stared at the imperial decree in Bian Lingcheng's hand, but they didn't really rush forward and tore Bian Lingcheng apart.

Bian Lingcheng didn't dare to stay longer, and retreated in a panic with the Mo Dao Shou of the Imperial Army. He wanted to go back to Chang'an City to renew the order, and hide for a while. After His Majesty appoints a new deputy marshal, he will come to Tongguan Prison together. military.

Bian Lingcheng ran away and left Tongguan!
The generals collected the corpses of Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi, and sent people to send their corpses back to Chang'an City and hand them over to their respective families.

Sending off the corpses of Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi, the generals were also chilling and pessimistic. The morale of the entire Tongguan, from the generals down to the ordinary soldiers, was low and they could not arouse the slightest desire to fight.

The pessimistic mood was not only in Tongguan, but also spread to Chang'an City after the corpses of Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi were sent back to Chang'an City, and Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi's family members supported their bodies and wept bitterly, and spread to a wider area. It seems that the whole Tang Dynasty is shrouded in pessimism.

He killed two generals in a row before the battle, and he only listened to the villain's words without any verification.

The imperial court has been corrupted to this point. In the prosperous Kaiyuan era, the house was never closed at night, and the politics were clear.Since when did it start to decay, the emperor is still the emperor who created the prosperous age, but why did the prosperous age decay into today's chaotic world, what is the reason!

Even ordinary people began to think about it, looking for the source of the prosperity and decay. Under the undercurrent, Yang Guozhong, the Yang family, etc., were slowly pushed to the forefront.
