Chapter 466: Attacking Luoyang
Fengluo Mountain, the Tang Army camp.
Cheng Yanjin walked back and forth in the big tent.
"Any news?"
"General, not yet."
Cheng Yanjin became more and more anxious, and even faintly uneasy, he knew this way, so he didn't let Qin Tian go up.
Dusk is approaching, and a gust of wind is blowing, but it can't blow away the heat in everyone's hearts.
Qin Wu finally couldn't help it.
"General, lead the troops to attack Fengluo Mountain, you can't let Hou Ye have an accident."
Cheng bit Jin and frowned, and then immediately ordered: "Whole army, go to Fengluo Mountain." ”
As soon as the order was given, someone immediately went down to give the order, and after a short time, the three thousand Tang troops were ready.
"Departure ......"
Just when Cheng Yanjin was about to leave, suddenly, a spy hurriedly came to report: "Come down, come down, Hou Ye is down......
Hearing the news, Cheng Yanjin and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's the situation?"
The spy said: "Hou Ye has come down with the thieves on Fengluo Mountain, and the grain and grass that robbed us before have also been brought down, Hou Ye asked me to report the news, saying that he should send someone to pull the grain and grass quickly." ”
"Okay, okay, I know that this kid is sure, come and bring back the grain and grass."
Cheng Yanjin commanded, and suddenly called the spies over again: "Those bandits, did Qin Tian say how to deal with them?" ”
"This ...... Hou Ye didn't say it, but it seems that he is not ready to dispose of it. ”
Hearing that Qin Tian was not going to deal with those bandits, Cheng Yanjin's brows suddenly condensed, a little uneasy, when he came, Li Shimin specially instructed him that he must destroy the bandits on Fengluo Mountain and deter other thieves in the Tang Dynasty, but now Qin Tian does not deal with them, how can he explain to Li Shimin?
It's a bit tricky.
At dusk, Qin Tian finally returned to the barracks with those bandits and the previous grain and grass, the grain and grass were used for disaster relief, so relatively speaking, they carried them down from the mountain, but they wasted a lot of energy.
At this time, everyone was tired and sweating profusely, and collapsed.
Cheng Yanjin looked at these people, and the killing intent in his heart suddenly became much stronger, killing these bandits at this time, they had no ability to resist at all.
To kill or not to kill?
Cheng Yanjin walked out.
"Xiaotian, okay, have you got all the grain and grass back?"
Cheng Biting Jin needed to probe again, Qin Tian smiled, and then called Luo Huang and Luo Feng.
"Lu Guogong, thanks to the two of them who understand the righteousness and are willing to follow us to quell the rebellion, I have promised them to ensure their safety, and after returning to Beijing, Lu Guogong will also help more."
Qin Tian knew what Cheng Yanjin thought, so he explained the situation to Cheng Yanjin first, so as not to kill Cheng Yanjin in a hurry, and after Cheng Yanjin heard this, he glanced at Luo Huang and Luo Feng, the two of them, and the two of them did not have the previous arrogance at this time, and hurriedly saluted: "Meet Lu Guogong, I have offended a lot before, and I hope Haihan." ”
Cheng bit his golden eyebrows and moved slightly, Qin Tian suddenly laughed: "Lu Guogong, didn't you say that you are the ancestor of the bandits, why are you so nervous and speechless now that you see the juniors?" ”
Hearing Qin Tian's words, Cheng bit Jin and slapped him: "Who is nervous, you kid is nervous." ”
said, and said to Luo Huang and Luo Feng: "Since you have abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, then work hard, make merit, and return to the capital, and the prince will still ask for credit for you." ”
Qin Tian's words just reminded Cheng Yanjin that Cheng Yanjin was also a robber, and he should understand their difficulty, if they were not forced to do so, how could they fall into the grass?
And judging from Cheng Yanjin's reaction, he did hear it.
It's just that because they robbed the grain and grass, which led to the outbreak of the rebels, this crime is not light, I don't know how much credit it will take, so that when the two of them return to the capital, they can get back two lives.
"Lu Guogong, order someone to rest, tomorrow morning, we will rush to Luoyang City."
-----------------
Luoyang has the convenience of water conservancy, close to Chang'an City, and is a prosperous city in the Tang Dynasty so far.
It's just that at this time, everyone in Luoyang City is in danger, and even Zhang Danian, the assassin of Luoyang, doesn't know how long this Luoyang City can last.
Since the Yellow River burst, many crops in Luoyang have been flooded, and the surrounding people can be said to be displaced.
I thought that after the relief grain of the imperial court came down, it could be remedied, who would have thought that the relief grain was robbed, and Li Jiancheng's old party Li Yiyu launched a rebellion again.
The situation was much worse than he had imagined.
"When will Lu Guogong and Qin Xiaohou arrive?" Zhang Danian walked back and forth in the Assassin's Mansion, and the whole person looked very uneasy.
"My lord, I should be able to get there this afternoon."
Hearing that Cheng Yanjin and Qin Tian would be able to arrive this afternoon, Zhang Danian finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they came, there might be a way to solve the predicament of Luoyang City.
And just when Zhang Danian was hopeful, a servant suddenly ran over in a hurry: "My lord, it's not good, the rebels are attacking the city again, and this time the number of people seems to be very large, more than 10,000 people." ”
"What, the rebels are attacking the city again?" Zhang Danian's face turned pale suddenly, since Li Yiyu's rebellion, the rebels have attacked cities and towns everywhere, and now they have captured several county seats, but Li Yiyu knows very well that the defense of the county town is still too weak, and if you want to be with Li Shimin, you must capture large cities, such as Luoyang City.
captured Luoyang City, and had the strength to confront Li Shimin.
Therefore, after Li Yiyu rebelled, he once sent people to attack Luoyang City, but Zhang Danian organized more than 1,000 government soldiers to defend the city in Luoyang City, but he repelled several rebels.
However, at that time, the rebels were only about 2,000 people, and this time the rebels suddenly attacked more than 10,000 people, obviously wanting to take Luoyang City directly.
Without hesitation, Zhang Danian immediately led people to the city gate.
Summer has a tail left, and in the morning, the weather is not particularly hot, but the cicadas are still chirping.
Zhang Danian came to the city tower and looked down, only to see a group of rebels standing outside the moat, these rebels served differently, most of them were not enough to eat, and finally had no choice but to throw themselves into the arms of the rebels.
They don't look like they can fight at all, and they really don't have much experience in fighting.
It's just that after coming into contact with them a few times, Zhang Danian knows that he can't underestimate these people, because they are fighting for their lives and food.
Such people are often the most terrifying, throughout the ages, the change of dynasties, isn't it all because of the weapons that some people picked up in order to have enough to eat?
