Xue Ne felt that today was the highlight of his life, and perhaps he would never have a more brilliant moment in this life.
Alone, under the false pretense of being a secret envoy of the Tang Dynasty, he actually captured the city of Humiliation.
If the news reaches Chang'an City, how should the emperor reward him? He even had a headache for the emperor.
Isn't it too much to give a small title? Isn't it too much to reward some gold and gems?
When Master Wang returned to Chang'an City in triumph, did he ride on horseback and enjoy the applause of thousands of people, or did he pretend to be low-key and blend in among the troops, letting others inadvertently spread his glorious deeds.
At that time, I appeared on the stage with a smile and reserved, admiring the explosive expressions of Chang'an's dandy bastards.
Thinking about it was so exciting that Xue Ne couldn't help but urinate and grinned widely, showing no trace of low-key expression at all.
When the dust settled and military power took over, An Xuanhuan finally surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and there was no turning back.
Sitting in the mansion in a daze, watching the generals carrying away the corpses one by one, An Xuanhuan had a complicated expression.
He, who was supposed to be a loyal minister, was not willing to die fighting to defend the city of Goguryeo.
If the ruler of the country had not been suspicious, if he had not sent civil servants to evade him, his choice might have been different.
"General An, good job. I will report it to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor's reward will be coming soon." Xue Ne patted An Xuanhuan on the shoulder and said meaningfully: "This step has been taken. , but you can’t go back, otherwise neither the Tang Dynasty nor Goguryeo will be able to tolerate you."
An Xuanhuan was agitated and finally came to his senses. He suddenly bowed down to Xue Ne and said, "General An Xuanhuan, I am willing to serve the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty with all my hard work. My descendants will not rebel from generation to generation. My heart is so loyal that it can be seen in the blue sky and white sun." Take a look!"
Xue Na smiled and said: "I am deeply moved by General An's words. I will also faithfully write these words of yours into the memorial."
"Next, please ask General An to restrain the generals and win people's hearts. The King of the Tang Dynasty is coming soon. Let's prepare to open the city to welcome the King."
Two hours later, smoke and dust suddenly rose up from the northwest of Humi City. Xue Ne hurriedly ordered An Xuanhuan to set up the flag of the Tang Army at the top of the city, then opened the city gate, and the garrison soldiers disarmed their armor and troops, and went out of the city to kneel down to greet the main force of the King's Division. .
A young general under Xue Ne waved a small flag and was ordered to ride alone towards the king's division.
Not long after, Hei Te Changzhi led more than a thousand forward battalion soldiers to approach the city of Hanyi on horseback. At a glance, they saw the gate of the city of Hanyi open wide, and the Goguryeo defenders knelt on the ground, each one ready for the king to take advantage of.
Then Hei Te Changzhi saw Xue Ne standing in front of the crowd with a smile.
Of course Hei Te Changzhi recognized Xue Ne. Everyone else was kneeling on the ground, but he was the only one standing at the wide open city gate. He was dressed in green clothes, with his hands behind his hands facing the wind. He looked handsome and handsome, but in fact he was showy and flamboyant.
After seeing Xue Ne, Hei Te Changzhi finally confirmed the fact that the city of humiliation had been taken. He glanced at Xue Ne from a distance, laughed and cursed "sick", and then turned his horse's head towards Qibi He with a look of joy. I went to report the news.
The main force of the Tang army entered the city, and the handover was extremely smooth.
Qibi Heli met Xue Na and An Xuanhuan in person.
Naturally, he praised Xue Ne so much that Qibi Heli changed the name of the adjective he used to praise Li Qinzai and used it on Xue Ne unchanged.
What about the Qilin'er of the Xue family, what talents are born in heaven, what achievements are in the country, etc., the poor cultural heritage is really squeezed out, and not a drop is left, so I stopped talking without saying anything.
Judging from Xue Na's contribution to the victory of the humiliating city without a single blow, Qibi Heli's praise of him is really not an exaggeration at all.
Originally, Qibi Heli thought that the Tang army would have to fight hard after the troops came to humiliate the city. Conquering the city always required huge sacrifices. However, Xue Ne took the humiliating city alone and saved the lives of many Guanzhong children. , this credit is indeed not small.
Xue Ne was praised by Qibi Heli and felt that his feet had left the ground and seemed to be floating.
His feet lifted off the ground and floated out of Qibi Heli's handsome tent. When he came out, he met his biological father Xue Rengui.
As if from muscle memory, Xue Ne's legs suddenly became weak and he subconsciously blurted out: "I didn't do it!"
Xue Rengui originally had a smile on his face, but when he heard the words, he hummed, his smile suddenly faded, and as if from muscle memory, he subconsciously slapped him in the face.
With a snap, both father and son were stunned.
Xue Ne held the back of his head in grievance, while Xue Rengui stared blankly at his palms...
It was his own father who came to his senses faster. Xue Rengui gritted his teeth and cursed: "You look like a loser, and you get angry just by looking at him. Tell me honestly, how did you capture the city of Humiliation?"
Xue Ne said without changing his expression: "The child sneaked into the city and met the guard An Xuanhuan. Without saying a word, he drew his sword and fought with An Xuanhuan for three hundred rounds..."
Snapped!
Xue Rengui was so angry that he slapped him again without saying a word: "It's just you, three hundred rounds? Tell the truth!"
Xue Ne sighed and said: "Well, I bought the city of Humiliation with money. The price is quite fair and it is worth the money..."
Without thinking, Xue Rengui slapped him again.
This time Xue Ne was happy.
Not hit.
Xue Rengui gritted his teeth and said, "You traitor, can you talk nonsense in front of me after you have achieved a small amount of merit?"
Xue Ne finally became serious and looked directly at Xue Rengui bravely: "My son Xu Shoujiang An Xuanhuan paid a lot of money. An Xuanhuan was originally dissatisfied with the suspicion of the Goguryeo ruler, and he was greedy for profit, so he readily agreed to dedicate the city. In a nutshell , this city was indeed bought by a child with money, where did I go wrong?"
Xue Rengui was startled, thought for a long time, and found that there seemed to be nothing wrong.
The city can actually be bought with money, who are you talking to?
In front of the rebellious son, the majesty of the biological father cannot be lost.
Xue Rengui said with a straight face: "Don't think that just because you have achieved meritorious service, you can be arrogant. You are still far from it. I, the general of the Xue family, hope that you will work harder and achieve serious military exploits with every sword on the battlefield."
After saying that, Xue Rengui took a deep look at Xue Ne, turned around and left.
Xue Ne was really aggrieved this time. He suddenly stopped Xue Rengui with a sigh of relief.
"Dad, do you think my son's victory over Huiyi City this time is still a matter of speculation and luck?" Xue Ne's voice was trembling.
Xue Rengui turned his back to him and was silent for a long time. He sighed, turned around and looked at him, and finally showed a long-lost smile.
"It doesn't matter whether you rely on a sharp tongue or a bloody fight. To defeat the city is to defeat the city. Ne'er, you... did a good job this time. I am very happy as a father and I am proud of you."
Hearing this compliment that he had not heard for many years, Xue Ne finally had red eyes and wanted to cry, but he didn't want to show his fragile side in front of his biological father. He bit his lip and forced a smile towards Xue Rengui.
It turns out that I am really not that useless.
I am also a very good child.
The knot that had accumulated in my heart for many years was finally resolved at this moment.
…………
On the way from Wugu City to Huiyi City.
Liu Xing, the leader of the troops, was leading the troops on the road quickly. Li Ji, whose leg injury had not healed, was carried on a soft bag, and the troops walked quickly along the rugged mountain road.
The road was a little bumpy, and Li Ji felt a little uncomfortable at his age, but he gritted his teeth and remained silent. In times of crisis, the tribesmen really couldn't take Li Ji's comfort into account. Everyone knew very well that they were Run for your life.
