In a barracks at Yumen Pass, a captain who had just finished his patrol and was about to take a rest sneaked out of his tent after seeing everyone go to sleep. He looked around and saw no one was around, so he walked towards Yumen Pass. .
Along the way, he kept avoiding the patrolling team. He was so familiar with the road that the patrolling team couldn't find any trace of him.
After spending some time, the captain finally came to the Jade Gate. After carefully looking around and finding no trace of anyone, he took out the long bow on his back and nocked a long arrow tied with a piece of cloth. On top of the long bow.
Just when the captain was about to shoot the arrow, a cold snort came from not far away, and then, torches lit up all around, illuminating the surroundings of the captain like daylight.
The captain's face suddenly turned pale, and the arrow in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
Before he could pick up the arrow, a person rushed out from behind him and kicked him, knocking the captain to the ground.
At this time, several people walked out of the crowd. The leader was naturally Luo Zhang, followed closely by Zhang Hongyu, Cheng Yaojin and others.
Looking at the captain lying on the ground with a frightened expression, Zhang Hongyu was stunned for a moment, and then her face darkened.
"Zhang Qing, why are you doing this?" Zhang Hongyu said in a deep voice through gritted teeth.
The person lying on the ground was none other than his nephew, Zhang Qing. Zhang Hongyu never imagined that his nephew would be a traitor.
When Luo Zhang realized that there was a traitor at Yumen Pass, he lost sleep and told Zhang Hongyu the news.
Originally, Zhang Hongyu sneered at Luo Zhang's baseless suspicion. In his opinion, his brother would not betray him.
Luo Zhang did not explain, but said that someone would definitely go to the city wall to shoot arrows in the next two days.
Luo Zhang meant to let the patrolman relax and let the man think that he would succeed and lure him out.
Sure enough, Luo Zhang's plan succeeded, and not long after this, the traitor was caught.
This was also shocking to Zhang Hongyu, and what was even more shocking was that this person was actually his nephew.
"Why should I do this? Don't you know?"
"I don't want to die here. I still have a bright future. I don't want to accompany you, a lunatic, guarding a Yumen Pass with no reinforcements or attention!"
"Tubo has already said that as long as I dedicate Yumen Pass, I will be named a general, and will be rewarded with thousands of gold coins, and countless beauties will be sent to my bed!"
"Besides waiting for death, what else can I do with you? Do you really believe what this guy says? Just him? Thirty thousand people can resist the Tibetan army of 300,000? Artillery? That's what he says. It’s so miraculous that it’s just a lump of iron! Can it kill so many Tubo people?”
"you!!!"
"Shu Zi!!!"
Zhang Hongyu blushed when she heard her nephew's words. She was angry.
"Master Luo, this is my nephew. I am not saying this to plead for mercy. I am begging you to behead him. Such a traitor will not be spared death!!! So many of our brothers died in the battle at Yumen Pass. I didn't expect him to show up." Such a scum is still my nephew, so shameful, so shameful!!!" Zhang Hongyu gritted his teeth and stared at Zhang Qingdao.
"Embarrassed? Am I embarrassing you now? I just want to keep the incense of my Zhang family. If I die, there will be nothing. Uncle, don't believe this kid's words. Kill him now and dedicate it to Tubo." Mr. Ludongzan, he will definitely give you a high official and a generous salary!!!" Zhang Qing persuaded Zhang Hongyu.
Zhang Hongyu wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Luo Zhang: "Master Zhang, since your nephew said that artillery is a useless thing of scrap metal and cannot defeat the Tubo people, then I will temporarily spare his life and let him Let him see the power of the artillery, see how I defeated the Tubo people, and then I will kill him and see what else he has to say, what do you think?"
Zhang Hongyu took a deep breath, nodded and said: "It is up to you, sir. This is a very thoughtful move, let this kid know what it means to be an upright person and be an honest man in the next life!!!"
