With such bravery, it really boosted the morale of hundreds of people, shouting and charging into the battle.
Li Shimin's eyes were cold and sharp, and he didn't even blink when he saw this.
Dezhou is a large state. Its city is solid and unmatched by ordinary county towns. Its gates are tall and majestic and its passageways are vast.
But no matter how vast the passage is, what role can it play if hundreds of people are crowded into it at the same time?
Teng Zhong's people are behind and his people are in front. If the two ends are blocked, what kind of trouble can the people inside make out.
This was a one-sided massacre.
Dusk was deep, the night wind was howling, and bright red blood splashed on the walls. Broken limbs were scattered in the passage into the city. The passage into the city, which was several meters wide and tens of meters long, was densely packed with corpses. Blood flowed along the In front of the city gate, the cracks in the bluestone bricks flow to both sides of the road...
Li Shimin took a look at the already curled sword and secretly thought it was a pity.
Taking another look at the soldiers who had lost their resistance and were huddled in a pool of blood and shivering, he took out his official certificate from his arms and said loudly: "I am Li Changsheng, the governor of Dezhou appointed by His Highness King Wei." , the official who took office is here, and the school captain Teng Zhong vouched for me, and the witnesses and material evidence are all present, so your suspicions can be eliminated!"
He also said to everyone: "On that day when the emperor went to the west, except for His Highness King Wei who was entrusted with an important task and was in charge of one side, the other kings followed him to the west. In this case, how could His Highness King Ji appear here? The so-called How could King Ji, Changshi, bring someone here to intercept and kill me?!"
"It is clear that there is a thief who is deliberately impersonating and has evil intentions. He is afraid that his scheme will be exposed by me, so he has the intention to kill and silence him!"
"I also know that you were deceived by traitors, so you followed orders. If you are willing to repent sincerely, you can turn back. If not-"
He took the long spear that he used conveniently from the retinue, and swept it suddenly, bringing up a strong wind: "Today is the day you will die!"
Those who really wanted to die for King Ji had already died in this massacre. The remaining ones were either timid people or people who were speculative. They were already desperate and thought they would die. How could they think of it? Even a life can be saved.
After hearing this, they all dropped their weapons and knelt down on the ground trembling: "General Li's kindness and kindness will be unforgettable for us!"
Teng Zhong swung the double ax in his hand, and the minced meat and blood drops stuck to it splashed to the ground.
He sneered and said: "Brother is kind and wants to save their lives, but he doesn't know that the villain is cunning and can act according to the wind. At this time, he knelt on the ground and said, "Today's kindness will be unforgettable. I can't help but turn around." I want to stab my brother in the back!"
Li Shimin was astonished in his heart and glanced at Teng Zhong appreciatively. Following his words, he said loudly: "Brother Zhong, what you said is wrong! Pretending to be a member of the royal family is a major crime against the nine clans. If it is not true, There is no way out, how dare that traitor do this?!"
"He cheated and cheated all the way, and brought so many people to Texas, which shows that he is a lost dog with nowhere to go - if he is like this, let alone those who were deceived and deceived by him?"
"Stay here and listen to my orders. If you are guilty and meritorious, if your luck is better, you may not be able to marry me in the future. If you stab me in the back and cause chaos in Texas, what good will it do to them to leave? Are you a bandit here?"
After saying this, the soldiers who had secretly harbored evil intentions and thought of bowing their heads and begging for mercy for the time being before rebelling again in the future also hesitated.
Yes, King Ji himself is homeless. Otherwise, how could he still have the idea of Dezhou?
In this case, why did they follow King Ji to cause rebellion?
It was already very embarrassing when I was running around, and I don’t know what my family is doing now...
On one side is the incompetent former lord King Gongji, and on the other is Li Changsheng, who is brave and kind-hearted. It seems that there is no need to hesitate for too long about which one to embrace, right?
Don't forget, there is also King Wei behind Li Changsheng, who is the most prestigious and powerful clan in the world besides the emperor!
Wouldn't it be better to just leave King Ji's broken ship?
In the chaotic battle just now, all the loyalists of King Ji died, but the speculators who were determined to protect themselves were unscathed. At this time, after hearing what Li Shimin and Teng Zhong said, he immediately took a few steps on his knees. Weeping bitterly: "The general treats us with brotherhood, how dare we let down the general?!"
At that moment, he grabbed the ground with his head: "In front of the benefactor, the villain dare not speak nonsense. Previously, we followed the traitor to Texas, and we were not without suspicion. We never thought that those thieves would tell lies. The compilation is very complete. It is difficult for me and other ordinary people to detect the loopholes. Now that I think about it, I feel that there are many doubts..."
"Prince Ji is a member of the royal family and was born in the imperial capital. How come he sometimes speaks with a Jiannan Dao accent? It's really strange!"
Li Shimin looked surprised at first, and then slapped his thigh suddenly: "Sure enough!"
"Yes." Seeing this, the others gradually started chatting.
In an instant, King Ji in the city, who had never shown any flaws before, seemed to have turned into a sieve, with wind leaking from all directions.
"How does he have the demeanor of a royal clan member..."
"I can't even tell the rank of officials within the state and county clearly."
"The descriptions of those thieves who claim to be officials of the royal palace are quite vulgar!"
Li Shimin listened to them quietly, frowned and thought thoughtfully: "Impersonating a prince is a big crime. I'm new here. For such a big case, I'm afraid I have to report it to the governor of Dezhou." good."
When Teng Zhong heard this, he immediately said: "Brother, I don't know. After King Ji led his troops into the city, he first suspended Qian Lun from his position as governor and detained him on the grounds that the emperor ordered to arrest the Chang family members. "
"Brother Cuofei sent us here before. Later, Miss Yu and Mr. Wei came with King Wei's decree. They were afraid. Dezhou has already become the traitor's bag. …”
After hearing this, Li Shimin made a decision immediately: "In this case, we must make a quick decision without giving the thieves a chance to react!"
He looked sideways at the soldier who spoke up first: "What's your name?"
The man kowtowed and said, "The villain's name is Bai Fulu."
Li Shimin asked: "Where is King Jiji now?"
Bai Fulu said quickly: "The dove occupied the magpie's nest, and in the name of a false prince, he occupied the governor's mansion of Governor Qian."
Li Shimin asked again: "When King Ji came to Dezhou City, how many so-called royal officials did he have under his command?"
Bai Fulu said without thinking: "There are twenty-six people who claim to have official positions, and there are one hundred and thirteen attendants who have no official title!"
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and asked meaningfully: "Do those people know you?"
Bai Fulu felt his head tremble when he heard it, his thoughts changed rapidly, and he suddenly understood.
Immediately he replied respectfully: "Even if I can't call the villain by name, his face is still familiar!"
"Very good," Li Shimin tapped him with a riding crop: "I will give you eight hundred elite cavalry, plus these surviving soldiers, a total of a thousand people will come out to deal with the attack on the governor's house. The rest of the place outside is enough."
He looked at the people in front of him with deep eyes: "Take these people and kill all the royal officials you know who are scattered outside the Governor's Mansion, and surrender the rest!"
"After counting, you did your job well. From now on, you will be the commander of these thousand people..."
Bai Fulu's breathing quickened.
Li Shimin's face turned slightly cold at this moment: "However, I, the general, have said something ugly in front of you. If you dare to take the opportunity to avenge yourself and kill someone who shouldn't be killed, I will kill you." Peel off his skin and hang it on the head of Dezhou City!"
The night wind was cold and solemn, and Bai Fulu couldn't help but shiver. He temporarily cooled down his burning heart and lungs, and said honestly: "Yes, I will remember the general's orders!"
In the space, several emperors were eating melon seeds and complaining: "What kind of Zhu Bapi behavior."
Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes at them angrily, but paid a little more attention to Bai Fulu: "It is said that heroes emerge from troubled times. The ancients are sincere and I am not deceived."
Is this Bai Fulu ghost?
ghost!
Among so many people, he was the first to notice Li Shimin's intention, and he took the initiative to jump out and echo him. As a follower of King Ji, he denied the authenticity of King Ji's identity and gave him King Ji’s fatal blow——
It was not Li Changsheng, the governor of Texas appointed by King Wei, who said that King Ji was fake, but someone who followed King Ji to Dezhou from outside Dezhou. King Ji's own subordinates came forward to testify that he was fake!
He seized this golden opportunity and completely saved his own life - he pointed out that King Zhengji was a fake witness of a traitor and a key figure. He was killed by Li Changsheng when he turned around, or died on the battlefield. What will the world think of you?
So after the testimony is completed, as long as he doesn't do anything stupid, Li Shimin will save him!
Because to a certain extent, Bai Fulu himself is equivalent to the evidence that King Ji is fake by others!
And he was obviously not willing to give just one piece of evidence, and took advantage of the situation to seize the second opportunity - he clearly stated the composition of the personnel under King Ji's command, and made some arrangements for the personnel of King Ji's faction. untie.
This does not necessarily mean that he is an important figure in King Ji's faction, but it at least shows that he is very smart and good at observing the camp.
He could tell who was King Ji's true confidant and who could be fought for.
It was also this intelligence that made him decisively make the right choice - completely jump on Li Changsheng's chariot!
Betrayal?
impossible.
He stabbed King Ji fatally in the back, and led his men to kill King Ji's confidants who were not in the Governor's Mansion. After doing such a thing, how could he betray him?
But it was precisely this incident that gave him another protective umbrella besides being a "false certifier of the King's identity".
He was once a person who was deceived by the false king, and even participated in the interception and killing of Li Changsheng. Such a person was still able to be reused by Li Changsheng and commanded thousands of people. The rest were "deceived" by the false king and were deceived. How could Li Changsheng be offended by those who were forced to follow him?
Bai Fulu is a horse bone that Li Shimin bought with a thousand pieces of gold. It is a symbol that he can punt a boat in his belly. How could he die? !
Ying Zheng couldn't help but said: "If he hadn't been born at this time, who would know about him in future generations?"
"Yes," Liu Che agreed with deep understanding: "Just think, Fan Kuai, if you follow Emperor Gaozu and raise an army to resist the Qin Dynasty, he is just a pig-killing butcher in Peixian County!"
Ying Zheng: "..."
Subconsciously, he touched the hilt of the sword.
You can't hide the look in your eyes that wants to kill someone with a knife!
Li Yuanda stopped eating melon seeds for a moment, then resumed his eating. He said while eating: "It's a shame this is not the Qin Dynasty..."
Zhu Yuanzhang gloated: "After I said this in the evening, I was torn apart by a car in the evening."
Liu Che was startled and took a few steps back: "You can't afford to play with this anymore... Hey!"
The space is filled with a cheerful atmosphere, while the outside is full of solemnity.
Bai Fulu took the order and led his men, and with the help of the soldiers in Dezhou City and the soldiers of the Wei King and Li Shimin factions, he purged the forces of King Ji and his family in the city. Li Shimin led his men and went to fight the assassin in person. Mansion.
The identity of King Ji is very important. He cannot fall into the hands of others, let alone flee elsewhere. This is one of them;
To control the entire Governor's Mansion and take advantage of the situation to capture the entire Texas, this is the second step!
Comparatively speaking, the second step is much more important than the first!
Li Shimin looked around at the crowd, with a solemn look and a sad tone: "The traitor is causing trouble to the country, pretending to be a relative of the emperor, poisoning Dezhou, harming our officials and people, helping the country, and avenging the governor who died in vain. Today is the day!"
Revenge for Qian’s untimely death...
Ying Zheng, who was killing pigs in the space, couldn't help but move his eyebrows.
Li Yuanda: "Ah this..."
Zhu Yuanzhang: "Ah this..."
[Prince Qian: I’m really annoyed today! 】
Chapter 127
King Ji's quick eyesight and quick hands captured Dezhou first. Was Li Shimin shocked?
Frankly speaking, it was a bit shocking.
Is Li Shimin afraid of this?
