Chapter 62

Shubao went back to the stronghold after Jianjian built Pingdinghedong Prefecture. Seeing that Jianjian and the king of Qin had led the generals to the stronghold, Shubao got off his horse and came to join the king of Qin. The king of Qin was overjoyed.Jingde released Xu Youliang and saw the King of Qin. The King of Qin ordered you to surrender. Youliang surrendered. The King of Qin asked how many more generals there were in the city. Don't underestimate the enemy." Qin Wang said: "The thieves are running out of food, and they will come to a decisive battle. First capture the black door, and then take the fat village." You Liang said: "This area is right next to the Luo River, and the water is too fast. The front village occupies the foot of the mountain. Its shape is the lowest, and you can first beg five thousand troops to bring shovels and hoes, and move to the river along the river at night to cut off the water of Luoshui, and you can drown all the soldiers of the black scorpion." Qin Wang said: "This plan is also good, you have to be optimistic. Just do it, don't let people feel it." Li Yi was sent to lead the army to meet him, and go to make the river-breaking equipment.Shiji asked the name of the bridge at the east gate of the city, and Xu Youliang said, "This is Dengyun Bridge." King Qin and Shiji rode by the side of the Malay bridge, looked along the river, and returned to the village. Shiji called Yu Wenxin and Yin Kaishan "Lead a thousand gunmen to ambush around. If the black man comes from the small road in Shandong, Qin Shubao will lead a thousand troops to lie there. When the black man arrives, he will be captured there. Call Jingde to lie on the north side of Dengyun Bridge, and wait for me and him." The king of Qin led Hei Kai over and demolished the bridge, but he reined in his troops to the north of the bridge, waving the flag as a force, making it inconvenient for Hei Kai to look north. If he went south, he would cross along the river. Although Li Yi was there, Good trick.

"The dispatch has been decided, and the two will go to lure the enemy by themselves.

But it is said that Hei Kai handed over the generals to defend the city, and he and Cheng Shiliang were the front and rear teams, Hei Kai was the front team, and Shiliang was the rear team, and they went out of the city to meet the enemy.The king of Qin lined up in a row, which was uneven.The sergeant came across the Dengyun Bridge and confronted Hei Kai.The king of Qin came out on horseback, with more than a hundred riders on both sides holding hands, pointing at Heitai and saying: "Jiande and Shichong have attracted hundreds of thousands of people, but I have captured them. Now that they are here, why don't they come down?" Seeing that King Qin's army was in disarray, he immediately sneered, saying that King Qin and Li [Shi] Ji used troops in name only.With one move of the gun, the military academies, big and small, rushed over.Qin Wang reined in his horse and retreated, and Hei Kai came behind him.After passing the Dengyun Bridge, the Jiancheng Army is on the left, and Yuan Ji and other generals are on the right.Hei Kai knew it was a trick, and when he hurried back to the army, the bridge was broken. He wanted to go north, but Jingde's army was spread across the bank, so he went south and walked along the river.The king of Qin retreated behind his back to cover up the killing, but Hei Kai was unable to support him, so he ran for his life first.The rest of the crowd were especially in love with the battle, when suddenly Li Yijue's weir was so big that it was difficult for men and horses to move, they couldn't catch up behind them, so they paused.By the time the river receded, the black door had already gone for a day.

At that time, the crown prince sent general Xingye to chase after Hei Kai. Hei Kai ran without rest until he reached Raoyang. There were only a hundred followers under him, and he was especially hungry and hungry.A group of people and horses blocked the way, and Hei Kuo said, "I'm done with you!" Seeing another group of sentinel horses rushing up, Fang recognized it as the army horse of Zhuge Dewei, the governor of Raozhou, and Hei Kuo Fang felt at ease.Dewei went on to say: "Although I know that the king's army is defeated, I dare not stay away, for fear of losing my defense." Hei Kai said: "I am very hungry in my stomach, so I can eat and drink quickly, so I can talk to you about military affairs." In Yangcheng, Hei Kai was sitting in the main hall, and after the ceremony, he secretly ordered a group of knives and axemen to stand around under the curtains, offering dishes.Before the black door had finished eating, Dewei shouted, "Why don't you do it?" Dozens of warriors crowded out from both sides, staggered to the hall, tied up the black door, and then sent them to the Tang camp.

Jiancheng was furious and ordered the warriors to beheaded in Luozhou.Hei Kai sighed and said, "I'm lucky to be howing vegetables at home, but I was mistaken by Gao Yaxian." "Hei Kai died at the age of 34, in November of the sixth year of Wude. Later generations have poems.

The black sword fights with the blood and the blade is red, and he sacrifices himself to repay the master and is lonely and loyal.

Although it is common for a general to die, it seems that he has been famous for thousands of years.

The Jiancheng brothers cut off the black door and found out the land of Pinghe River, and the class teacher returned to Chang'an to meet the Tang Lord.Overjoyed.Everyone is rewarded for their merits. Since then, the army and the people have rested in peace.

However, since the King of Qin had a gap with Jiancheng and Yuanji, Luoyang is a place of great shape. He fears that there will be changes in the dynasty.The Lord of Tang followed him. On that day, King Yuanji of Qi was reprimanded by the King of Qin because of the imperial garden test. Every time he cherished the old grudges, even though he wanted to murder the King of Qin, the Lord Tang was above him and did not dare to do anything wrong.So he came to the East Palace to discuss with Prince Jiancheng, intending to seek advice from the King of Qin.Wei Zhengjin said: "Although the pacification of Hedong today is obviously the work of the King of Qin, we can make a plan early to help great things." In order to congratulate him, the king of Qin was invited to drink at night, and he was poisoned with wine; if the matter leaked, he would be killed at the banquet, and the event was decided.

Jian Jiancheng said: "The people of the world have so many claws and claws, how can they be safe when there are changes?"This seems impossible.

Zheng said: "When a major event is decided, all the teeth and claws are ministers, so why be afraid of it?" "Yuanji said: "The event is urgent. If you plan early, you will sit in peace, and if you plan later, my brothers will all be ghosts under the spring. "At that time, Wang Gui was on the side, and he also praised it strongly. Only when it is completed, there is a meaning to follow.

On that day, people were sent to the west mansion to invite the King of Qin, and the King of Qin readily agreed to come.The three of them were overjoyed to meet each other, and Jian Jian said: "Shi came to collect the thieves, borrowed my brother's strength, and never repaid my virtue.

In my spare time tonight, I prepare a special vegetable feast, invite my brother to drink together, and talk about the feeling of being rich for a while. "The king of Qin said: "It is the country's plan to collect thieves, so why preempt my affairs.One is the father, the emperor Hongfu, and the other is my brother Huwei, and the younger brother should congratulate each other. How can they be restrained when they are so disturbed? "Yuanji said: "but if the world is peaceful, what's the hindrance to our brothers being drunk all day long? "Qin Wang said:" Yes.

"So the three of them expressed their sincere feelings in detail, sat and drank separately, each holding a jug on the left and right, and the wine pourer stood on the side, and poured a jug of medicinal wine to drink with the king of Qin alone.

After several tours of the wine shop, Wei Zheng discussed with Wang Gui and said: "The matter is under control, so we can start quickly." Then he asked Zhang Da to dance his sword, and Da drew his sword and said: "There is no joy in the feast, and I wish the sword dance is a show.

When King Qin's subordinates saw Zhang Da witnessing King Qin, Ma Sanbao swung his sword and said, "There must be a right sword dance, please accompany me." "The two danced to each other. After Sanbao's eyes were built and Yuanji looked after him, Qi Zigai drew out his sword and said: "Dancing swords must have money and heart. " Then he danced in.

Someone reported to Shiji earlier, and Shiji panicked Yin Kaishan, Qin Shubao, and Yu Chigong to rush in with sharp weapons and said: "We will be a group dance to help you laugh." King Qin was shocked, and he drew the swords on his left and right sides and stood on the table. Said: "My brothers congratulate each other and drink, and there is no doubt that they are not at the Hongmen meeting. Why use swords to create chaos? Those who don't abandon the sword will also be killed!" With a knife?" He went there with all his might, and all the people came down to the hall one after another, disarming all weapons in the distance.Yuan Ji called all the officers and men to the hall, and rewarded them with wine, saying: "I deeply feel that my brother does not forget his flesh and blood, and discusses important issues together. Do you have two minds? Don't be surprised and suspicious, and enjoy your heart. If you have a different mind, your offspring will be exterminated." All the generals all Pause and say goodbye.

General batch: Jiancheng brothers pacified Hedong, this is the day when the bandits and bandits will be wiped out and Yuhai will be cleared.No matter what, Yuanji, the king of Qi, had a grievance over the Yuyuan test, and even murdered the king of Qin with the East Palace. Unexpectedly, the king and Wei could not remonstrate with death, but wanted to agree with it.The dance of drawing swords is like a meeting of Hongmen; the gathering of brothers is like facing each other.Therefore, it is said: Wang and Wei are guilty first and then meritorious.
