Soldiers are the courage of generals, and generals are the soul of soldiers!
Qin Huaidao smiled when he saw this scene. Generals dare to fight for merit and soldiers dare to sacrifice their lives. With such an army in hand, why should we be afraid of the Turks? Looking at the captain who stayed behind, the other party looked envious and couldn't help but smile: "What's your name?"
"
"Return to the general, Chen Erhu."
"What a good name. Is he the second oldest child in the family?"
"yes!"
"Let's go, this general will take you to perform meritorious service."
"Ah? But..." Although Chen Erhu wanted to make a contribution, he was also worried about the danger. However, seeing Qin Huaidao riding forward, he followed up and led his men to follow.
According to the establishment of the Tang army, there were ten groups in a team, that is, fifty people. How dare such a small number of people take the credit in the battle? Chen Erhu, the leader of the team, was very worried. After catching up, he quickly shouted: "General, you can't be... dangerous!"
"Follow me. I'm not afraid of you, the general. Are you afraid?" Qin Huaidao said with a smile.
"That can't be done. Whoever is afraid is a coward." Chen Erhu suddenly became unhappy. To be selected into the Yulin Guards, in addition to having strong fighting ability, he must also have extraordinary courage and courage.
The group of horses galloped and soon arrived near the North Gate. Qin Huaidao stopped and looked at the quiet North Gate without saying a word. His eyes gradually fell on the wall of the North Gate. There was no one in sight. Apparently all the troops were transferred to other places to participate in the battle.
, Chen Erhu came over, half a horse behind, not daring to stand side by side, clasped his fists and asked: "General, are we here?"
"Wait for someone." Qin Huaidao said casually.
Chen Erhu was even more confused, but seeing that Qin Huaidao had no intention of saying anything, he wisely kept his mouth shut and didn't ask.
Not long after, the city gate suddenly opened, and countless Turks rushed out, discarding their helmets and armor. Many of them even lost their weapons. It was as if there was a deadly god of death chasing them behind them. They went straight to the north. Some people saw them not far away.
Qin Huaidao and others not only did not dare to go up to fight, they also thought they were coming to rob and kill them, so they were so frightened that they beat their horses and rushed forward.
"Come out, the general has a good chance of winning. Shall we charge forward and kill him?" Chen Erhu was eager to try, his eyes were shining, and his hand couldn't help but tighten the handle of the knife.
"You are really a tough guy. You don't even understand the principle of not chasing after a poor enemy? They are running for their lives. Anyone who dares to stop them from running for their lives at this time will risk their lives. Let them go. When the energy of running for their lives is exhausted, it should be
When they get to the river, there are people taking care of them." Qin Huaidao said with a smile.
Chen Erhu chuckled: "The general is right, I have never gone to school and do not understand the art of war. Anyway, it is right to listen to the general. The general is invincible, and everyone in the Yulin army is convinced. In order to participate in this battle,
We have competed, and only the winner will be allowed to come over."
"Is there such a thing?" Qin Huaidao looked at the other party in surprise.
Chen Erhu said with determination: "I don't dare to lie to the general. Everyone in the Yulin army knows that as long as they follow the general to fight, they will get a lot of silver rewards and earn a lot of military merit. They are all vying to participate. What if there are too many people?
General Yuchi asked everyone to compete, and only the winner will come."
"Thank you brothers for your trust." Qin Huaidao was somewhat moved and bowed to everyone.
The soldiers did not dare to show off, so they quickly returned the favor.
As he was talking, a large number of Turkic troops rushed out and headed north. Soon, a group of servants rushed out guarding a three-carriage. The servants were dressed in Tang Dynasty. Qin Huaidao's eyes turned cold and he said with murderous intent: "I was really guessed.
,Chen Erhu, have you seen the carriage?"
"I saw it."
"The servant is from the Tang Dynasty, and the carriage must also be from the Tang Dynasty. Governor Li said that someone was acting as an inside agent, which caused the city to be attacked by the Turks. This group of people followed the Turks to escape. They must be an inside agent with a guilty conscience. They rushed up and killed the servant. The people in the car were
Try to keep people alive as much as possible."
"You bastard, I hate these traitors the most." Chen Erhu said as he picked up the repeating crossbow and shouted to the people around him: "Brothers, the general has given us a chance to make meritorious deeds. We can't act like this and embarrass the general. Follow me.
Rush up, kill all the servants, and capture the people in the carriage alive."
"kill!"
The soldiers roared loudly and rushed forward on their horses.
The servants only numbered a hundred or so, but they were all scum in front of the well-trained Yulin army. Qin Huaidao did not move. When he saw everyone rushing up and knocking down most of them with a single shot, the servants were so frightened that they knelt down to surrender, begged for mercy, and laughed.
Soon, Chen Erhu led his men to kill all the servants and drove the carriages over. There were three carriages, one filled with gold and silver jewelry, another with a mother and daughter, and another with a father and son. They were all captured.
Chen Erhu got off the carriage and stood up obediently. He was so frightened that his two legs trembled and his face turned pale.
Qin Huaidao came to the middle-aged man and saw that he was wearing Tang Dynasty official uniform and was still a fifth-rank man. He shouted and asked: "Tell me your identity and official position."
The other party was so frightened that he knelt down and quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Sir, please spare my life. There is money in the car. I'll give it to you. Please let us live. I beg you."
"Ask me for the last time, identity? Official position? Otherwise, I will kill you without mercy." Qin Huaidao asked, hating traitors the most.
The other party was so frightened that he quickly said: "I am the scribe of Jinwei Governor's Mansion and Wang Tongfu."
"Wang Tongfu, Wang family from Taiyuan?"
"Yes! Please show your respect and let my family of four go." Wang Tongfu begged for mercy.
"Look up, do you recognize me?" Qin Huaidao asked coldly. He is actually a remnant of the Wang family in Taiyuan. His name is Wang Tongfu. Isn't he the same generation as Wang Tongbiao?
The other party raised his head and glanced at Qin Huaidao carefully. He didn't recognize him. He quickly lowered his head and said, "Sir, please forgive me. I don't know you."
"Wang Tongfu, you opened the city gate on behalf of the Turks and plunged the Jinwei Governor's Mansion into fire and water. Do you know your crime?" Qin Huaidao deceitfully said with murderous intent.
The other party did not know that Qin Huaidao was cheating, and thought he had been exposed. He kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Sir, the gold, silver and jewels in the carriage are worth one hundred thousand guan. You picked them up. No one knows. I just ask you to give me a way out."
"Treasures are trophies. You should not deceive this general. As for your life and death, you acted as an insider and killed countless people in the city. You deserve death. Your life belongs to the suffering people in the city. Someone - take them with you."
This general is entering the city." Qin Huaidao shouted, his eyes were cold and stern, traitors must be severely punished.
"Follow the order!" Chen Erhuhong roared.
"No--"
Wang Tongfu was anxious. He knew his own affairs. If he really entered the city, he would definitely die. He quickly said: "Sir, please have mercy. I have a secret to tell you. I will atone for my sins. I just ask you to spare me a chance and give my family a way to survive."
Sir, have mercy."
"Let's talk about it." Qin Huaidao, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped, his eyes were as cold as lightning, he locked eyes with the other party, and threatened: "Don't hesitate, and don't try to bargain. You only have one chance, tell me quickly."
"Yes, yes..." Wang Tongfu nodded repeatedly and took out a letter from his arms.
Chen Erhu stepped forward to take it and handed it to Qin Huaidao.
Qin Huaidao took out the letter from it and opened it. His pupils shrank suddenly, and his heart was filled with turmoil. The letter was not signed, but there was a trefoil pattern. This was the first time Qin Huaidao saw this pattern, but Qin Qiong remembered it more than once.
Mention, this is the private logo of Prince Yin Li Jiancheng.
In other words, this is a letter written by Li Jiancheng to Wang Tongfu. It does not contain much content. It starts with friendly talk and polite words, and then changes the topic and asks Wang Tongfu to act as an internal agent to assist the Turkic army in taking over the Jinwei Governor's Mansion. After that, he agrees to help.
The Wang family in Taiyuan was rehabilitated and Wang Tongfu was granted the title of Grand Governor of the Jinwei Governor's Mansion.
I thought it was just a guess, but I didn't expect that Turk was actually related to Prince Yin.
By colluding with foreign enemies to invade, he is seeking death!
A surge of anger rushed to the top of his head. Qin Huaidao read the letter carefully and asked, "Is this letter true?"
"I don't dare to deceive you, sir. It's absolutely true." Wang Tongfu said quickly.
"Why did that person write a letter instead of dictating it?" Qin Huaidao asked, there is no reason to leave any clue about such a confidential matter, and Li Jiancheng is not a fool?
Wang Tongfu quickly replied: "Maybe he was afraid that I would not agree, so he wrote a letter to be on the safe side."
"You mean he deliberately left you with clues so that you could do things with peace of mind?"
"That's right." Wang Tongfu said quickly.
Qin Huaidao thought about it carefully and it was really possible. Who would dare to collude with the Turks without any evidence? It was different if he had a letter. He could blackmail Li Jiancheng and not be afraid of his repentance. Anyway, the Jinwei Governor's Mansion was in danger and the city could be destroyed at any time, so it was better to give it a try.
And Li Jiancheng was forced to open the city gate for some reason. In order to get Wang Tongfu to agree, the only way was to take the initiative to provide excuses to appease Wang Tongfu.
As thoughts flashed through his mind, Qin Huaidao asked: "Is there anything else I'm hiding? Tell me quickly."
