The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 289
Wei Zheng rushed to Luoyang with more than 100 "remnants and defeated generals" at the fastest speed. Wei Zheng knew that he and these more than 100 brothers were racing against time and had to race against time.Otherwise, if Wang Shichong finds out about his surrender to Yang Yong, he and these 100 people will fall into a trap. I am afraid that we will not see Shan Xiongxin, and our 100 people will have to move their heads. Xiongxin also has to be punished.Therefore, we must see Shan Xiongxin as soon as possible, and persuade him to let him turn against Luoyang, cooperate with the inside and outside, and take Luoyang easily.

Therefore, more than 100 people like Wei Zheng traveled non-stop all the way, day and night, until they entered Luoyang City. When they saw Wang Shichong, Wang Xingben, Shan Xiongxin and others, they didn't suspect anything at all. put it down.

When people like Wei Zheng knelt down in front of Wang Shichong to plead guilty, Wang Shichong finally understood, but he still couldn't help asking: "Military Master, why are you back? What's going on? Where is my brother Wang Shiren?" ?”

Wei Zheng bowed heartbrokenly: "Infinite Heavenly Venerable. My lord, Hulao is lost, and General Wang is dead..." Wei Zheng told how Wang Shiren was so stubborn that he couldn't listen to his own advice, so he insisted on going to war, but fell into Yang Yong's plan He told the truth about the loss of Guancheng, except for the fact that he surrendered to Yang Yong, everything else was true. Therefore, Wang Shichong and the rest of the generals did not pick out any faults.

But despite this, Wang Shichong burst into tears after hearing this. After all, he was a brother of the same mother. The generals hurriedly persuaded Wang Shichong. !Wei Zheng, this king made it clear before leaving that Hulaoguan is dominated by you, and Wang Shiren has to listen to you. You clearly know that this is Yang Yong's treacherous scheme, why don't you stop it?"

Wei Zheng quickly saluted and said, "My lord, it's not that my subordinates have neglected their duties. The subordinates tried to persuade him many times to no avail, but General Wang insisted on going his own way and insisted on going out of the city to rob the grain. The subordinates really had no choice but to witness that the subordinates were guilty. "

Wang Shichong slapped the table: "It's good to know that you are guilty. You are completely making excuses for yourself to blame! Among other things, as a military adviser, you lost Guancheng, and the entire army of [-] soldiers was wiped out. This is not bad. Come on!" People, push it out and chop it!"

The knife and ax hand agreed, came over and dragged Wei Zheng outside.

Wei Zheng's heart fluttered, how about it?Pindao guessed that Wang Shichong had to blame himself for this matter.It seems that no matter how loyal Pindao is to Wang Shichong, even if he can escape with his life, he still has to lose his head in front of him. Thanks to him for taking refuge in Yang Yong, it seems that he has made the right move.Otherwise, it's not worth losing your head for such a stunned master.

At this moment, Shan Xiongxin who was beside Wang Shichong yelled "Slow!", and then came out to salute: "My lord, Hulao Pass fell, General Wang was killed, and tens of thousands of soldiers were lost. This battle has been defeated so badly." The military division cannot be blamed. However, there is a reason for the incident. The military division finally escaped with the soldiers. There is no credit but hard work. Moreover, Yang Yong's three-way army is pressing down on the situation. It is just the time for employing people. It's not good. Please think twice, the prince, and save his life."

At this time, General Wang Xingben also came to intercede.Wang Shichong thought for a while and said, "Okay, for the sake of my aunt and General Wang, I will spare your life first. You will make up for your crimes and meritorious deeds. Otherwise, I will kill you for two crimes. Let's go down!"

Wei Zheng was shocked when he heard Wang Shichong say the word "Uncle". Could it be that Wang Shichong gave his daughter to Shan Xiongxin?If that's the case, it will be bad, we can't be close, no matter how close our friendship is, Shan Xiongxin, can he listen to me and object to his father-in-law coming to join Yang Yong?Oops, this is going to be difficult.

Wei Zheng hesitated as soon as he thought about it, Wang Shichong saw that Wei Zheng was kneeling and didn't move and didn't speak, just about to get angry, Shan Xiongxin quickly interjected: "Military Master, why don't you thank the lord for not beheading?" winked.

Wei Zheng just woke up like a dream, and quickly kowtowed to thank him.Wang Shichong ignored him, and turned away while remaining angry.

Wei Zheng stood up, glanced at Shan Xiongxin, and then withdrew.I gave a few words to the more than 100 soldiers, telling them not to act rashly and follow their own orders.

After the accounts were disbanded, Wei Zheng secretly came to see Shan Xiongxin, Shan Xiongxin welcomed Wei Zheng in very enthusiastically, someone offered tea and retreated, and the two brothers were left in the room.

Shan Xiongxin took a sip of the tea, saw Wei Zheng's sad face, smiled at Wei Zheng and said, "Brother, you have been wronged by today's incident, but don't blame the prince for getting angry, your defeat was too miserable, Hulaoguan lost you!" Now, the entire army of [-] soldiers was wiped out, and even the prince's own brothers were involved. Whoever encountered this would be angry. But it's all right now, the matter is finally over. After a few days, the prince's anger subsides, little brother Say a few more kind words in front of the prince, the eldest brother is still a military advisor, and we brothers can work together to achieve great things again."

"Wuliang Tianzun. Brother also thinks that this battle is the elder brother's fault?" Wei Zheng looked unhappy.

"Brother, you are a military adviser. Although the main responsibility is not yours, you are also jointly and severally responsible." Shan Xiongxin said half-truthfully with a smile.

Wei Zheng smiled: "Brother, his brother appointed me as a military adviser, and his brother refused to listen to me. What can I do, brother? Do I want to chop off his head for disobeying the military order? It seems that the eldest brother has to give brother Congratulations!"

Shan Xiongxin smiled and said: "Brother, let him get over the past. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong. The important thing is that our brothers are reunited again. Maybe you already know it. Thanks to the great love of the prince, my brother and I Princess Wang Rongrong has been married for a hundred years, and because of special circumstances, I didn't have time to invite you to have a big wedding, it's my brother's fault. Now I will make up for it."

As Shan Xiongxin said, he saluted Wei Zheng, and then ordered his wife Wang Rongrong to come out to meet Wei Zheng.Because Wei Zheng had something on his mind, he didn't drink the wine happily. Because Wang Shichong's daughter was in front of him, Wei Zheng wanted to say a few more words, but he didn't dare to speak.

Shan Xiongxin was unhappy seeing Wei Zheng, thinking that he had been wronged, and felt depressed, so he didn't think much about it, and the banquet ended in this half-dull, half-depressed atmosphere.For several days, Shan Xiongxin invited Wei Zheng to drink every day, and sometimes Wang Rongrong also came to accompany him, but Wei Zheng searched hard and did not come up with a perfect solution.

This matter has been reported to Wang Shichong and Wang Xingben for a long time, Wang Xingben saluted and said: "Brother, according to my younger brother's observation, Wei Zheng seems to be a little bit upset, he and Shan Xiongxin have a lifelong friendship, and Shan Xiongxin was born in the green forest, the most important thing There is no sense of loyalty. The two of them often drink together, will it be detrimental to the prince?"

Wang Shichong smiled: "Brothers are too worried. It is well known that the two of them are close friends, so it is normal for them to drink together often. Besides, although both of them are generals, they are not what they used to be. Shan Xiongxin is my son-in-law now. Even if Wei Zheng has a double heart for Brother Yu, can Shan Xiongxin turn to outsiders and oppose his father-in-law? This is impossible. Besides, isn't Rong Rong with them? , Rongrong will definitely send us a letter."

Wang Benxing said disapprovingly: "Big Brother Mingjian. What Big Brother said has a certain truth, but now is a troubled time. We are attacked on three sides, and now Luoyang is left as a lonely city. Yu Wenhua and the old treacherous and cunning, there is no profit. At this time, he will definitely not come from here Soldiers were dispatched from the Wagang battlefield to help us, so he can't control the troops. In addition, it has been so long since we sent out the letter of appeal for help, and there has been no news from Dou Jiande in Hebei. The situation is not good. At this time , we can't have any more problems internally, my lord?"

Wang Shichong thought: "Brother is right. How about it, let Shan Xiongxin lead the troops to fight tomorrow, and try his loyalty to the king."
