Five days later, outside Jiangling City, Nanyuan, the execution ground.
Dozens of bloody heads have been impaled on the wooden stakes, each with a ferocious look, full of unwillingness and anger. They are the generals of the Yongzhou Army who were showing off their power a few days ago. The head is as big as
Dou, one eye has been beaten into a bloody hole, and the two stab wounds are as deep as the bone. Isn't it the powerful and violent Yang Quanqi's brother, Yongzhou fierce general Yang Guang?
And Yang Quanqi was not much better than his brother. He was now tied up and his hair was disheveled. His whole body was covered in blood. He had at least thirty scars, which were tightly wrapped in gauze and were still oozing blood.
This tough man was thrown to the ground and it was a luxury to even sit up. His eyes were staring at his brother's head, filled with tears.
Huan Xuan, whose armor was stained with blood, sat cross-legged in front of Yang Quanqi. In front of him, tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers and horses with bright helmets cheered in unison. The leaders were Huangfu Fu and Wu Fuzhi.
Generals, Huan Zhen and Hu Fan were guarding behind Huan Zhen. Guo Quan, He Danzhi, Feng Gai and other senior generals stood aside, looking at Yang Quanqi with half disdain and half emotion.
Huan Xuan held a steamed bun in his hand and placed it in front of Yang Quanqi, with a sarcastic smile on his face: "Old Yang, you must be hungry. When you stormed my camp these days, the whole army was chanting
With these two words, now that the battle is over and the winner has been decided, I will fulfill your last wish and let you go on your journey as a dead ghost, which can be regarded as living up to our friendship and alliance."
Yang Quanqi burst out laughing: "Huan Xuan, you have won, don't you know that a scholar can be killed but not humiliated? In this battle, you used shady conspiracy methods. I won't accept it, and I won't accept it even to death!"
"
There was a murmur in Huan Xuan's mouth, and he sighed: "Old Yang, you are over forty years old, why are you still acting like a baby, a general and commander who controls the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, what else do you want to say?
Conspiracy means? Don’t you know how to be deceitful as a soldier? As long as you can win, you are aboveboard. Who cares about your methods? You have fought so many battles, used so many tricks, and deceived so many people.
Even this time, didn't you lie to your men until the last minute and risk your life for the steamed buns that you could never get? If you had surrendered earlier, at least not all of your men would have died in the battle. See you down there.
When it comes to them, they will definitely hate you."
Yang Quanqi gritted his teeth and said: "Our Yang family, the Yang family, is a loyal and loyal family. All our troops are all righteous. Even if they die generously, they will die in a worthy way. There is no such thing as a despicable villain like you.
Will use these, these shady methods!"
Huan Xuan smiled and shook his head: "You are obviously a warlord leader who separatizes a state, but you still want to talk about loyalty. If you are really loyal, you should lead your subordinates and die on the battlefield to rescue Luoyang, not for your own sake.
You have selfish interests and want to compete with me for Jingzhou! Competing with Huan Xuan for Jingzhou, do you have the strength?"
Following Huan Xuan's wanton laughter, all the soldiers in the audience shouted in unison: "Jingzhou, Jingzhou, the Huan family is in the world, Jingzhou is in Jingzhou, the Huan family is in the world!"
Yang Quanqi closed his eyes helplessly and murmured: "Huan Xuan, this is the end of the matter. I have nothing else to ask for. I have one last wish, which I hope you can satisfy."
Huan Xuan smiled and said: "Are you asking me to let your wife and children go? Lao Yang, we came out together, so don't be naive. If you don't cut the grass and root out the roots, do you still want to keep it to avenge me in the future?"
Yang Quanqi shook his head: "My wife and I have a deep love for each other. She knows that if I die in battle, she will die for her love. You don't need to worry about it. As for my son, he will die with me this time. You don't need to do anything. My brothers
, Si Ping, respect them diligently. If you successfully evacuate from the battlefield, you will have good fortune in the future. I can't control them anymore. What I want to ask you is not this."
Huan Xuan nodded with satisfaction: "As long as I don't kill your whole family and leave you some incense or something, it's easy to say. I know that your Hongnong Yang family values family ties the most. Just for this, I will definitely send your whole family on their way.
, I will not let you be alone on the road to Huangquan. As for the other things you ask of me, you can tell me now and deal with you as soon as possible. I still want to enter Jiangling City. I have been away for almost a year. It’s weird."
Yang Quanqi gritted his teeth: "The result I am in today is all because of Yin Zhongkan. This time I fought alone, but he escaped. Such a shameless villain, even if I become a ghost, I will not let him go.
For you, if you want to stabilize Jingzhou, you can't keep him anymore. If you want to go to Beijing to seize the world in the future, you can also use Yin Zhongkan's head to demonstrate to the high-ranking families in Jiankang and let them know your
sharp!"
Huan Xuan laughed: "So this is what you asked for. How much you hate Yin Zhongkan. Also, if it were me, I would definitely hate him to death, even more than I hate him. Okay, this of yours
I agreed to your request. Don’t you want to have another bite of steamed buns before we go on the road?”
Yang Quanqi closed his eyes: "A scholar can be killed but not humiliated!"
Huan Xuan turned around and waved his hand. An executioner was about to step forward with a bloody knife. Hu Fan frowned, stepped forward and pushed the executioner away, saying in a deep voice: "Don't be rude.
!”
Huan Xuan didn't look back and said coldly: "General Hu, let me remind you that this man is treasonous with Hu and causing trouble in Jingzhou. He deserves to die. Even the imperial court has issued a decree asking us to punish thieves. Don't do it because we had the same relationship with him."
The affection of the general, just thinking about favoritism and breaking the national law, otherwise, I will not be able to protect your head!"
Hu Fan said solemnly: "Although this man's crime cannot be punished, after all, he was once a general of the country and made great military exploits. To kill General Yang with an ordinary sword and axe-handed sword to kill those unknown soldiers is too humiliating to him."
, the last general is incompetent, please order me to personally enforce the law!"
Huan Xuan waved his hand: "Hurry up, I have to go back to Jiangling to deal with a lot of things."
Hu Fan walked to Yang Quanqi's side, squatted down, picked up the steamed bun on the ground, handed it to Yang Quanqi's mouth, and whispered: "Old Yang, Hu will personally send you on your way. Take a bite and treat it like a broken man."
It’s time to eat for the first time. At least you won’t be hungry on the way to Huangquan. When you get there, you can continue to kill enemies!”
Yang Quanqi's eyes were sparkling with tears. He opened his eyes and took a bite of the steamed bun. He heard Hu Fan loudly say: "The traitor Yang Quanqi, listen up. Duke Huan has sent Lu Zongzhi and Tao Yuanming's troops to pursue Yin Zhongkan. He can't escape."
Yes, they will definitely die. As for your brothers, they have already fled into the mountains and forests, joined the barbarians, and will never come out in this life. Don’t expect them to follow you, and go on your way with peace of mind!"
As he spoke, he pulled out the big knife and raised it high. He heard Yang Quanqi swallow the steamed bun in his mouth and laugh to the sky: "The steamed bun is so delicious, Huan Xuan, I'm waiting for you below!"
The sword flashed and blood splattered everywhere. As Hu Fan and more than ten thousand soldiers present silently paid Yang Quanqi the last military salute, Huan Xuan jumped off his horse and waved forward: "Send Yang Quanqi's head to
Jiankang is victorious, let’s go back to Jiangling!”
