Setting fire means not giving the other party much time to think about it.
It is difficult for people to remain calm and rational when facing life and death.
The fire is getting fiercer and fiercer. Once it reaches the third floor, it will be difficult for the gods to save it. Of course, with the strength of the masked man in black, he can jump down, but he is surrounded by people below, and even crossbows are watching him. Even if he jumps down, he will die.
How to break such a deadlock?
The middle-aged man was anxious. Who would want to die if he could live? The higher he was, the less he wanted to die. He quickly shouted: "What can I do for you? How can I guarantee that you won't kill me?"
At this time, he could still maintain his sanity, and the other party was also a person. Qin Huaidao asked Soga Ezo next to him, and after learning that it was the current emperor Shuming, he shouted loudly: "Soga Ezo has a letter in his hand. Come with me and get the letter."
Then escort me away, and promise not to kill you. If I kill you, the Japanese will surely pursue you crazily, and I won’t survive, and I won’t be able to offend you.”
The other party hesitated.
Qin Huaidao continued to attack his heart: "Do you want to wait for reinforcements? Just a reminder, the fire will burn you to death before the reinforcements arrive. If I kill everyone in your royal family, no one can legally inherit the throne of the emperor. By then, your subordinates can
Don’t you have any other thoughts? I’m afraid you are busy fighting for the position of emperor and no one will avenge you or even thank me.”
To kill, to kill one's heart.
A few words hit the other side's weakness, the royal family was all wiped out, no one succeeded the emperor, the Japanese country fell apart again, and all the forces were busy fighting for power, who cared about themselves?
Qin Huaidao saw that the other party was wavering and continued to attack the heart: "When the time comes, all parties will be busy fighting for power and preserving their strength. Who will use their strength to avenge you? I will be able to retreat. It's almost time. Presumably your reinforcements will also be there."
It’s almost here, make your choice.”
The succession of heart-wrenching words made Emperor Shuming shaken, and he blocked the lives of his entire clan for what purpose? A posthumous name?
If everyone is dead, what’s the use of a posthumous name?
Human nature is selfish, and a dead Taoist friend will not die a poor Taoist.
Emperor Shuming's selfishness and desire to survive took over, and he made a decision in his heart. He saw that the fire had reached the stairwell of the third floor. Thinking of being burned alive by the fire and turning into coke, he trembled all over, panicked, and said quickly: "
OK, I promise you."
Qin Huaidao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Jump down."
Soon, a masked man in black jumped down with Emperor Shuming in his arms. When Qin Huaidao saw other masked men in black preparing to jump, murderous intent broke out in his heart, and shouted: "Except the Emperor, shoot everyone else, start!"
"Boohoo!"
One after another, the crossbow bolts flew away. Just as the masked men in black jumped down, they all became living targets and were shot to the ground. Those who were lucky enough to escape were also shot by the continuous crossbow bolts. No one was spared.
.
The masked man in black quickly retracted and hid before he could jump.
Emperor Shuming's face changed drastically when he saw this scene, and shouted: "What are you going to do?"
"Your guards are making people uneasy. Don't worry if you kill them." Qin Huaidao shouted and glanced at a team member. The other party nodded knowingly and led his men to rush forward and drag Emperor Shuming over.
Emperor Shuming looked at Qin Huaidao, then looked at Su Worulu, and said with a livid face: "Aren't you on a mission to the Tang Dynasty? Why are you here?"
Seeing that the other party was speaking in Tang dialect, Suga Ruishu could only reply in Tang dialect: "Your Majesty, I met them on the road, was defeated, and became a prisoner. I am indebted to the Emperor's favor."
The words were polite, but the behavior was not respectful at all, and there was even disdain in his eyes.
At this time, Luo Ying and Yuchi Baolin escorted a large number of people over, including men, women, old and young. Yuchi Baolin glanced at Emperor Shuming, cupped his fists and said, "All members of the royal family have been captured."
"Report——"
A soldier covered in blood hurriedly ran over and shouted from a distance: "Sir, there is a reinforcement army coming from outside. There are 2,000 people. They are blocked by our army, but the offensive is very fierce."
"People from Wolf Camp will go over to help, while Hu Camp will stay." Qin Huaidao said coldly.
Luo Ying agreed and rushed to support with the Wolf Camp.
"Self-search." Qin Huaidao looked at Emperor Shuming.
Someone immediately went up to search him. After confirming that there was no murder weapon, Qin Huaidao continued: "Brothers, it's not easy to come here. You can't go back empty-handed, right? The Japanese country must also learn the hospitality of our Tang people and bring out the best things to entertain people from far away.
Friends who are here, tell me, where is the treasure house?"
"Why, do you want to keep it for yourself?" Qin Huaidao asked coldly. Seeing that the other party remained silent, he pretended to be impatient and shouted: "Come here, chop off the heads of his children first, and kill them one by one until they agree."
"Follow the order." Yuchi Baolin shouted in cooperation.
When Emperor Shu Ming saw that he was really going to take action, and the one who was pushed out first was his youngest son, who was also his favorite son, he immediately panicked and hurriedly told Yuchi Baolin that the treasure house was not there until Qin Huaidao signaled Yuchi Baolin to take people to check it.
Of course, you can't go back empty-handed when you come here. The key is to loot the royal treasury, which can delay the development of the Japanese country. When you turn around and behead Emperor Shuming, the Japanese country will inevitably be in internal chaos and civil war will break out again.
How could we not do this kind of thing to cause chaos and bring down the Japanese state?
Soon, the group came to the door, and sure enough, there was a large army attacking fiercely, but they were blocked by the Wolf Camp with repeated crossbows, earth mines and explosive packs. With the city wall blocking the way, the outside attack was in vain.
Qin Huaidao led his people up the city wall and took a look at the attacking troops. They were well equipped and should be elites. There were also teams hurriedly coming with torches in the distance. The formation was very long, which showed that there were quite a few people. Some of them were lucky to have taken the troops.
I defeated Emperor Shuming, and it would have failed if it was any later.
You have to prepare enough mines and explosives, otherwise it will be difficult.
"What troops are attacking? Tell them to stop?" Qin Huaidao looked at Emperor Shuming with a cold face.
Emperor Shuming's face turned ugly, he hesitated to speak, and looked at Sowa Rulu.
Su Wo Rulu's face became ugly and he looked at Qin Huaidao.
Qin Huaidao realized that there was a problem with this team and asked impatiently: "Speak!"
Emperor Shumei explained with a grimace: "Outside is the Soga family guard, which is under Soga Ezo's personal command and is not subject to the control of this emperor. In my opinion, this is Prime Minister Soga preparing to seize power?"
After saying that, Emperor Shuming looked at Sowa Rulu with deep meaning.
Suga Rulu was embarrassed and didn't know what to say, but Qin Huaidao understood. This was when Suga Eni learned that someone was attacking the palace, and took the opportunity to come over in the name of King Qin to make a profit. He took advantage of the situation to control the royal family, seize the power of Japan, and fight
Even if you lose, you are still loyal and can win the hearts of the people and the support of all parties.
No matter you win or lose the battle, you will win in the end. It is indeed not easy to become the Prime Minister of Japan.
Qin Huaidao secretly cursed the old fox and looked at Su Worulu: "Let them stop."
"This...my order is useless." Suwa Rulu explained awkwardly.
Suddenly, a burst of laughter came from not far away, and then a person shouted: "Attack quickly, I am Brother Shanbei, come in quickly and save me."
These words were not complicated. Qin Huaidao learned my language for two or three months and understood it. He turned around and looked up. When he recognized Brother Shanbei, his face turned cold and he shouted: "Come here, bring Brother Shanbei here.
"
The person in charge of custody pushed Brother Shanbei over. Brother Shanbei glanced at Su Worulu and snorted disdainfully: "Baga, you have disgraced the family, I am ashamed of you!"
"Weren't you also captured?" Suga Rulu retorted dissatisfiedly.
"And you, if you have disgraced the dignity of the Japanese nation, you will die in the fire." Brother Yamabei looked at Emperor Shuming.
Emperor Shuming's face turned gloomy instantly. He fell into Qin Huaidao's hands and had nothing to say. After all, he was a defeated general. What qualifications do you, a minister, have to commit the crime and insult the emperor? What came to mind, he said coldly: "Some people say that the prime minister relies on power.
I have a disobedient heart. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that it is indeed the case. Even you dare to do it. How can it be unreasonable? As long as I am not, I will fight with you and my family until death."
These words were spoken in Japanese. Qin Huaidao couldn't understand, and he didn't bother to care about the grievances between them. He grabbed Brother Shanbei and stood in front of him as a human shield. He quickly came to the wall and shouted: "Translate!"
The translator came forward quickly, his face full of nervousness.
"Let the people outside stop fighting, otherwise I will kill this bastard now." Qin Huaidao shouted.
The translator reacted and shouted loudly.
The attack gradually stopped, but Brother Shanbei was yelling something. Qin Huaidao couldn't understand, so he looked at the translator, who quickly explained: "Sir, he asked the people outside to continue attacking, don't care about his life or death, and said...
… He also said that if you don’t dare to kill him, you will use him as a hostage to retreat, and we can’t survive without a hostage.”
"He's a sensible person... Ask outside and let Soga Ezo come out and answer." Qin Huaidao said disdainfully, knowing a little more about Brother Shanbei. Although this guy is also afraid of death, he is ruthless and cunning enough.
It's really not good to kill such a good hostage now, but that doesn't mean you can't kill him later.
