109, Killing Intent [Additional ten thousand rewards for 'reader 720115']
After marching for an hour, we arrived at Tongguan again.
The guarding general's eyes widened when he saw the large number of people. He even rubbed his eyes with an unbelievable look in his eyes.
Hunting Wen flag.
Wen Yue came back alive.
Geng Shuai asserted that Wen Yue would die if he left.
"Open the city gate."
Wen Yue looked directly at the general guarding the city.
The general who defended the city said loudly: "General Wen, you have too many men and horses. If you surrender to the Northern Wei Dynasty and lead people to falsely open the city gate, you will be responsible for the death of thousands of generals."
"You fart!" Wen Chong yelled.
"My young master defeated the Tuoba Leopard and flooded 150,000 Northern Wei troops. You can actually praise this unparalleled military achievement."
"Take a good look at all the brothers. Is there any one of you who is from the Northern Wei Dynasty?"
"Open the door quickly."
The guard general did not accept this trick at all. Whether it was for safety reasons or other considerations, it was not appropriate to open the city gate to Wen Yue at this time.
Geng Lie had already told him before that if Wen Yue came back, he must block him for a while.
The general guarding the city then said: "General Wen, please set up camp first and wait for me to report to the commander. Wait until noon tomorrow, when the army has withdrawn ten miles from the city gate, and the commander will open the door for you again."
Neither the nine-foot-long city wall nor the hanging basket is safe, so there is no such thing as this.
But at this moment, Wen Yue's heart was burning with anger. If it weren't for his good self-control, he would have cursed loudly.
He still wants to settle a score with Geng Lie, will he be stopped by Tongguan City Wall?
Although his magic power is insufficient, there is still no problem in supporting him to leap up.
Wen Yue looked at the Tongguan city wall.
The mana was shaped into projectiles, and as soon as Wen Yue flicked them onto the Tongguan city wall, they melted in. This change directly made Wen Yue frown.
I didn't find it in the past, but today I used magic power to test it, and found that there was no magic power point on the Tongguan city wall.
Then something really went wrong now.
Not to mention waiting all night, the guard was going to report now. Geng Lie would definitely have made preparations earlier if there was news of his return alive.
And there is no certainty that the other party will open the city gate tomorrow.
After all, he is the vanguard officer, and Geng Lie is the commander-in-chief of the army.
If the Tongguan City Gate had been kept closed, wouldn't he be as unable to cross as the soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and could only watch Geng Lie flee back to the capital.
Tu Shanjun saw it clearly and understood Wen Yue's impatience.
Now you can either use the flying sword to fly up directly.
Furthermore, there are no strong points on the Tongguan city wall, but there are strong points on the tower above. If you wrap a spear with a cloth strip, project it up, and use it to climb up, you can take down the general on the tower with force.
Wen Yue's face was like a flat lake, neither happy nor sad, but in fact, his heart was filled with rage.
Along the way, not only did he not calm down, but he felt more and more dangerous that this battle was going on. If the three tigers hadn't fought to save him, he would have been no match for the Yuanling Sect monks even if he had crushed himself into powder and burned him.
The Yuanling Sect monk knew him and even called him by name, which meant that there must be a traitor who betrayed him.
Combined with the fact that Annenberg was besieged, it is clear who did it at a glance.
The scene was at a stalemate.
"Open the city gate."
A dagger was placed across Chu Jing's neck.
The city guard general turned his head to look at the man holding the dagger. The man was wearing a captain's armor and was staring at him calmly.
"Did you know that assassinating a superior official is a capital offense?"
"Open the city gate."
Tietou said nothing, lowered the dagger and cut the flesh and blood of Chu Jing's neck.
A chill hit the back of his head, and Chu Jing was so frightened that he almost peed his pants. Did this person not understand what he meant at all? Or was it because he wanted to kill him, so he lowered the dagger without any hesitation.
He could feel the sharpness of the weapon and the surge of blood.
He clearly knew that if he didn't follow the instructions, his head would definitely be cut off.
The coldness made him shiver uncontrollably. Just when he was about to use his own force, he found that the person behind him was holding him down motionless.
"At least a master of bone forging?"
"When does an ordinary captain need to have his bones forged?"
Without any time to think, Chu Jing hurriedly shouted: "Open the city gate."
The city gate opened immediately.
Wen Yue led his troops directly into the city.
…
Geng Lie shook his head and listened to the oiran playing and singing a piece of music called "Please enter the urn".
The dance pavilion and singing stage, with graceful dancing girls, are a feast for the eyes.
For Geng Lie, the capital was too oppressive, and he always suppressed himself. He had to be cautious and flattery. Every official he met was a second- or third-rank official. He was an official in the same dynasty and could not offend him.
rise.
There are also some third and fourth grade powerful people who he cannot afford to offend either.
The princes and nobles, the generals are noble.
so what?
Now that he has finally escaped from prison, he is in great power, with 60,000 soldiers and horses guarding Tongguan. This is His Majesty's trust in him. As for Liang Du, the nobles who usually cannot afford to offend are now obliged to work under him.
The taste of power is bone-crushing and ecstasy.
It's a pity that he can't stay too long. He has sacrificed 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers and horses, and tricked An Nanbo and Wen Yue to death. The court does not know the specific situation, but it will not let him stay any longer. Your Majesty hopes that Tong
The gatekeeper will be a calm official.
"Hahaha." Geng Lie laughed.
Now that Wen Yue and An Nanbo are dead, he has found a way out again, even if the Tongguan commander is not on duty.
"Master, something happened."
The master hurriedly walked in, looking anxious and panicked.
"What's the matter?"
Seeing the master's appearance, Geng Lie waved his hand to indicate that the dancers and oirans could leave.
After everyone retreated, the master said: "Wen Yue is back alive."
Geng Lie immediately fell to the ground and turned pale with horror: "Impossible, that person said that it is absolutely impossible for Wen Yue to come back alive."
"How could he come back?"
Geng Lie hugged his head and stood up suddenly, his crown and hat falling off.
"But he's back." Master Yu looked solemn.
Geng Lie discussed everything with him, and of course he knew the tricks in this matter. No one thought that the plan that was supposed to be foolproof actually failed in the end, and Wen Yue did not die.
After the initial panic, Geng Lie has now calmed down a lot: "Inform Chu Jing and tell him not to open the city gate for life or death. He must stop Geng Lie."
"We have to go. We can only survive if we return to Liangdu." Geng Lie was ready to pack up Xinruan. He had to escape back to Liangdu to have a chance of survival. He stayed in Tongguan and faced the kind of people who even the big shots couldn't kill. In his heart,
There is no sense of security at all.
This is indeed a way. No matter how angry Wen Yue is, would he dare to kill a third-rank official in the imperial court under the nose of Emperor Liang?
This is tantamount to dying together.
As long as you think about your own future, you won't act like this.
However, it is better to rely on others than to rely on oneself. Master Yu lowered his voice and said: "Sir, Wen Yue must have gone through a bloody battle. We might as well do nothing and mobilize the army to annihilate him under Tongguan City."
Geng Lie's eyes were gloomy, as if he was thinking about which of the two methods was better.
"Bang."
He kicked open the door and quickly walked up to the dancing pavilion.
Before Geng Lie could react, a small group of soldiers had already surrounded him here.
The leader is none other than Wen Yue.
Wen Yue looked ferocious, gritted his teeth and said, "Fortunately, you haven't run away yet."
Geng Lie angrily scolded: "Wen Yue, what do you want to do with your troops? Do you want to rebel? Do you know that if you commit any of the following offenses, I will kill you?"
Wen Yue waved.
Tietou, with a cold expression on his face, led a group of brothers forward and directly dragged Master Yu away.
Master Yu looked horrified and shouted: "Master, save me, master."
"Inverted!"
"Here comes someone."
"Here comes someone."
"According to my general's order, Wen Yue rebelled and intended to rebel, and immediately entangled the army."
"Who can kill Wen Yue and get promoted to five levels in a row?"
Geng Lie yelled like a madman.
But everyone in the pavilion looked at him with indifferent expressions, unmoved at all.
