Chapter 296: Extraordinary Means
In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures are carried out.
Qin Tian could naturally observe slowly, and then find out the undercover agent.
But they couldn't afford to delay, so they had to resort to this almost brutal iron-blooded method.
Of course, this method is risky, if Linglong is not frightened and refuses to say anything about death, then he will be startled, and unless he is extremely cautious and cautious along the way, he may suffer at any time.
However, Qin Tian was still willing to give it a try, because he felt that people were fearful, and as long as he broke his defense, everything would be much easier.
When the little girl's head was still bleeding, Linglong was already paralyzed on the ground in fright.
She has also seen murder, but she has never seen a murder like Qin Tian, almost without thinking about it, she will kill with a knife, so if Qin Tian wants to kill her, wouldn't it be easy?
Linglong is afraid, and there is no one who is not afraid of death.
Qin Tian's eyes were very cold, and his whole face was also very cold, which made people feel furious.
"Tell me who your accomplices are."
Linglong swept her eyes around, and then pointed to a person, after that person found out that he was being pointed at, he immediately panicked, and was about to flee, but just as he was about to escape, Hu Eighteen was already a big knife out of the way, cutting him in half.
Blood sprayed, someone vomited all the food they had just eaten, and the smell in the house suddenly became unpleasant.
Qin Tian glanced at Linglong: "Kill!" ”
With an order, Monmu did not hesitate and directly cut off Linglong's head.
In a short period of time, three people were killed, and many soldiers who were carrying food were shocked.
They had heard of Qin Tian before, but they didn't know that he would be so cruel in the face of enemies.
During this time, they followed Qin Tian, and they didn't find Qin Tian like this, they felt that Qin Tian was still very gentle.
But today they learned that the Qin Tian they thought before was not the real Qin Tian, the real Qin Tian could be so cold-blooded that even he was afraid.
Murderous like hemp.
Everyone had a different opinion of Qin Tian, at least in terms of attitude, they were no longer the same as before.
Qin Tian was relieved when he saw this situation, he didn't like to kill people, but many times, many things had to be achieved by killing people.
Now, for example, these undercover agents must die, because their existence is always a danger to himself, and he needs to make it impossible for these soldiers to refute his orders.
"From today onwards, we will travel day and night to Gyeongju as soon as possible, and whoever dares to be lazy or make trouble on the road, Lord Ben will not show mercy."
In the past, no one might have said anything, but now that Qin Tian said this, none of them dared to doubt it.
A man who dares to kill people easily, his words are never a joke.
"Whoa!"
It was still very hot, so Qin Tian asked people to get some dry food and water and continue to move forward.
And at this time, no one dared to complain anymore.
Qin Tian looked at these people, but his expression was still a little dignified, these days, to be honest, there was still some delay on the road, even if he traveled day and night, he didn't know if he could arrive before Li Shimin's grain and grass were eaten.
A day or two late, it may cause unnecessary trouble.
These days, you have to speed up.
---------------------------
Time is slow, the weather outside Gyeongju is unusually hot, and the noise of cicadas is endless.
In the Tang army barracks, Li Shimin stared at his eyebrows.
"How much more grain and grass are there in the army?"
"Lord Wang, it's not much, if you finish eating today, you may not have it tomorrow."
Hearing this news, Li Shimin's brows narrowed even more, there is no military rations, then they have to make a choice.
After thinking about it, Li Shimin immediately ordered: "Go and call Li Ji, Qin Shubao, and they all to this king." ”
Not long after, a group of civil ministers and military generals entered Li Shimin's camp, the camp tent was very hot, Cheng Yanjin asked while wiping his sweat: "Lord, what's the matter?" ”
Li Shimin said: "There is not much food and grass in the army, and it can only be supported for one day, and this king wants you to come and discuss the next countermeasures." ”
"What, only one day?" As soon as he heard that the grain and grass were gone, Cheng Yanjin suddenly shouted, and Li Ji glared at him: "What is it called, if you let the soldiers know, you will definitely lie, and this matter must not be publicized." ”
Cheng Yanjin pursed his lips, but he really didn't continue.
"Lord Wang, didn't Xiaotian send someone to deliver a message, saying that he had already rushed with grain and grass?" Qin Shubao still misses his righteous son very much, and he also believes in him.
Li Shimin said: "Yes, but so far, we have not heard from them, and we must hold out until they arrive." ”
Everyone looks at each other, and they naturally know this, but now the question is, how to hold on.
"Lord Wang, why don't you retreat for the time being, and when the grain and grass come, we will attack again."
This is indeed the best way, as long as you retreat, retreat to the city, you will be able to find some food, although it is not much, and it is not a problem to hold out for a few days.
But at this time, Hou Junji immediately shook his head and said: "Prince, you can't retreat, as soon as we retreat, the prince is only afraid that he will make a small move in the capital, saying that we will flee without a fight, then we are deserters, now that you are not in the capital, what if the saint is biased, the last general said, we might as well fight to attack the city, maybe we can capture Gyeongju City." ”
Hou Junji is a military general that Li Shimin trusts very much, and he studied under Li Jing and is quite proficient in the art of war.
This is also clear to others, but soon, Li Ji shook his head: "General Hou, we can indeed capture Gyeongju City, but the key is that if we attack it like this, we will suffer heavy casualties, don't forget, in addition to Tuyuhun in Gyeongju City, the party clan is also eyeing us at this time, staring at our piece of fat, as long as we fight to the death with Tuyuhun, they will soon pounce on you believe it or not?" ”
Li Ji, that is, Xu Maogong, is by no means worse than Li Jing in terms of resourcefulness, so in the face of Li Jing's apprentice, he is naturally slightly superior, Hou Junji muttered, and said: "It is not possible to retreat, and it is not possible to attack, is it just waiting?" ”
Hou Junji smiled and said: "Tomorrow the soldiers will have nothing to eat, and soon there will be a disturbance in the army, Tuyuhun and the party will take the opportunity to attack us at that time, do we still have the strength to fight them?" ”
will be discordant.
Li Shimin frowned, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of Li Ji's mouth: "Who said that we don't have a chance, didn't Qin Tian already come with grain and grass, let's just wait, he will definitely send us grain and grass on time." ”
"You can't help but believe in Qin Tian too much, I heard that the person who raised the prince is called Duanmu Liang......
Li Ji smiled lightly: "Lord Wang, what do you say?" We all listen to you. ”
