It's a new day, a new beginning.
Xu Yunyan and his soldiers finally inspected the defense arrangements arranged by Li Jing. After confirming that there were no problems in the local area because of all the preparations Li Jing had made in advance, he breathed a sigh of relief and could safely and securely stay in his Chinese army. Rest for a while in the tent and think about what you should do next?
The main reason is that you cannot stick to the rules and follow Li Jing's defensive methods without mobilizing the army. Sooner or later, the Turks will find out what is true and what is true. At that time, you will be in big trouble.
But while Xu Yunyan was thinking here, he also thought of the two Turkic caravans entering the interior that had not been found for several days.
After they entered the mainland, they disappeared like ghosts. What on earth was going on?
Who is playing a big game here?
While Xu Yunyan was meditating on this matter here, Turk Jieli Khan looked at the news sent back by his spy and couldn't help but clapped his hands and applauded.
"Okay, okay, the two earliest caravans have successfully entered the Tang Dynasty, and they are constantly spreading out, breaking their manpower into pieces, and rushing towards their hometowns. When they return to their hometowns, they will be able to help me. The Turks worked.
Jieli Khan looked at the remnants of the former dynasty sitting next to him and smiled proudly. And this remnant of the previous dynasty did not feel unhappy when he heard that his home country was about to tremble under the hooves of the Turks. Instead, his eyes shone with a strange light.
"Revenge, I must take revenge and make the Li Tang Dynasty pay the due price."
And while they were thinking about how they would march to the Central Plains in the future, defeat the Li and Tang dynasties and avenge their dead ancestors, Pei Ji in the imperial city watched the Xuanwumen defenders who rushed back in a hurry and stepped forward happily. .
"Okay, I didn't expect you guys to come back so quickly. All those with official positions should come out."
After Pei Ji said a word, more than half of the people came out. This shocked Pei Ji. They would be rewarded for their merit. What's more, what Pei Ji said was that those with official positions, the lowest halberd holder, were also to them. Official body.
Li Yuan once issued an order for the Ministry of War to discuss the issue of rewards for these people, and with a stroke of the Ministry of War, basically everyone was upgraded. Although their positions were not transferred, the big-headed soldiers who were not in the upper ranks were transferred to the upper ranks, and then to the upper ranks. It was a big step, but Pei Ji was surprised when he looked at more than half of the people with official status in front of him.
But what kind of identity and shrewdness is this Pei Ji? After one glance, he understood what was going on and said immediately.
"More than a thousand Xuanwumen soldiers with official status return to Xuanwumen. The rest follow me."
Pei Ji led the remaining people towards the secret place he chose, although he was worried. What was going on? However, there are elites trained by Xu Yunyan who have shown extraordinary strength in disaster relief. I believe the court will not make things difficult for them.
Before the Xuanwumen defenders, who were led by Chang He Changwei and returned with official status, reached Xuanwumen, they were blocked by a group of generals wearing helmets.
"I didn't expect to meet all the generals here. What a coincidence. What a coincidence."
Niu Jinda was the first to say something, and the other generals couldn't help but feel a little contemptuous as they saw him here with a pair of cronies, who were also holding hemp ropes, obviously trying to catch people.
"Old Niu, what are you doing here?"
Niu Jinda looked at Chai Shao who was asking questions and the soldiers behind him who had almost the same weapons and said.
"General Chai, what are you here for? That's pretty much what I'm here for."
After Niu Jinda and Chai Shao finished speaking, the other generals looked at me and I looked at you. They all looked similar, and then they laughed awkwardly.
This scene made Chang Wei and Chang He who had just returned not quite understand, but the two captains still hurried forward to greet them.
"Generals, I wonder what you are doing here? Do you need help?"
Seeing Chang Wei and Chang He here asking for instructions, these generals of the Sixteenth Guards waved their hands, "You two hurry back to Xuanwu Gate. The soldiers of Xuanwu Gate have been deployed for you. Go back and make arrangements yourself."
The words of these generals in unison made Chang Wei and Chang He a little confused.
"Generals, why is this happening? What happened?"
Just when they were wondering here, Cheng Yaojin came out.
"Why are you guys still standing here stupidly? Go back quickly and don't embarrass yourself here."
After Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, Qin Qiong, who was accompanying Cheng Yaojin, stopped him.
"Know your integrity and don't mess around."
But Cheng Yaojin listened to Qin Qiong and stopped messing around, but Xu Shiji stepped forward and kicked them twice.
"Hurry up and get out of here, don't get in the way here."
This made the two captains a little worried, but they still cautiously passed the Sixteenth Guards General and the personal guards they brought with them and walked quickly towards the Xuanwu Gate.
But they had just walked a few steps and turned around to look back. The more than a thousand soldiers with official status who had been spared by Pei Xiangguo they had brought back were not as lucky as they were. They wanted to cross these sixteen But it was impossible for General Wei and their many soldiers.
Just when Chang Wei and Chang He stood there blankly staring at the back, a general turned his head and glanced at them, it was Zhang Gongjin.
"Why haven't you left yet? What are you still doing here? Go quickly, go quickly, and stay out of the way."
As soon as Zhang Gongjin finished speaking, one of the generals in front shouted, "Young men, follow me and charge! Grab every one you can."
Following his shout, the other generals reacted instantly, and Zhang Gongjin, who was there to dissuade Chang He Changwei from leaving, was instantly surprised.
"You don't follow martial ethics, how could you do this?"
But after he finished speaking, he also arranged, "Follow me and rob people."
As these generals did this, the soldiers behind them opened the hemp ropes in their hands and tied them up to the stunned Xuanwumen official.
Soon, the more than a thousand Xuanwumen defenders were tied up tightly by these generals and their soldiers.
It's not that they don't resist, but these little pawns, who dares to confront them head-on?
"General, why is this happening?" Chang Wei and Chang He were shocked when they saw this.
"Generals, you can't do this."
"What's wrong? Pei Xiangguo robbed half of your people, and we'll rob the remaining half. Isn't this unreasonable?
As for the Xuanwu Gate, there is nothing to worry about. We have already deducted manpower from our respective armies to garrison for you, so let’s leave it at that. "
After these generals unanimously agreed on this matter, they easily divided up the Xuanwu Gate defenders who had official status.
The Xuanwu Gate defender was a little unresponsive after being tied up with hemp rope. What happened? A team was looking at his immediate superior, the Brigade Commander, who sighed.
"How do I know what's going on? But this seems to be an opportunity for us."
Chance?
Just when the brigade commander said that it was an opportunity and his subordinates didn't quite understand it here, these generals tied this man up and started arguing there again.
"Cheng Laomo, you caught more than me."
Yuchi Gong shouted, and then said, "Quick! Mr. Cheng, give me ten or eight more."
"No, who doesn't know how many people you have tied up, and why do you want me to give you ten or eight?"
Cheng Yaojin quit, and there were still a few people watching Hou Junji.
"General Hou, isn't this trained by your junior brother? He also took more than a thousand people to the North. How about you give us these soldiers captured by your subordinates? Wait until your junior brother comes back, and then I asked your junior brother if he would like some?"
When Hou Junji heard this, he shook his head hurriedly, "How can this be done? This time we are here to rob people together, and His Majesty may not make it difficult for us. If I alone ask my junior brother who wants someone, and His Majesty does not agree, I won't Did you suffer a loss?"
have to!
The generals of the Sixteenth Guards are completely merciless now. Even if some people say that I have saved you on the battlefield before, it will have no effect. They have only one target now, and that is the elite trained by Xu Yunyan.
