Chapter 144: Beheading and Counterinsurgency

The first year of Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty, December 30.

Xia Hongsheng was riding on a horse, wearing leather armor.

Although he was a military officer, he was a lieutenant, but this was the first time he had put on a suit of armor. The armor made for him does not feel too wide to affect his movement even if he wears it on his body.

Behind the line of 800 soldiers, clad in armor and armed with weapons, the whole battalion was silent, even if 800 people were there, it was audible that the needles fell.

On Xia Hongsheng's side, a jujube red war horse snorted, and the hooves of the horse nailed with iron palms were scraped on the ground one by one, and it seemed that he was also infected by this solemn and solemn atmosphere, and became a little nervous.

On the jujube red horse, Duan Zhan was dressed in leaf armor, the long lance in his hand hung down obliquely, and his eyes were calm.

"Later, my brother just waits for me to triumph in the camp, and I will come when I go with these eight hundred army sons and daughters for my brother!" Duan Zan looked straight ahead, with a confident smile on his face, and he didn't seem to be completely blind to the battle that was about to come in front of him.

Xia Hongsheng nodded: "The junior brother can't see Brother Duan's heroic appearance of killing the traitor, so he warmed a glass of wine in the army, in ancient times, he beheaded Huaxiong with Yu warm wine, and now, there is also Duan Zan Wenjiu to quell the rebels!" ”

"Warm wine to kill Huaxiong?" Duan Zan was stunned, and said with a smile: "Okay! I hope that when my brother returns with the army, the wine in the bottle is still warm! ”

The two stared ahead, the towering black and cyan city walls of Chang'an City looked like a line of mountains from a distance.

A piece of smoke and dust gradually appeared in the field of vision of the two.

A flying horse, hurriedly beating horses, rushed straight into the camp, and shouted loudly: "There is a sound of shouting and killing in Chang'an City, the rebels have moved!" ”

Xia Hongsheng and Duan Zan glanced at each other, and then reined in their horses and moved out of the way.

The long lance in Duan Zhan's hand pulled out the flowers, and a cold glow suddenly appeared, and he suddenly moved forward and shouted: "Sons! The rebels are now in the city, follow me to quell the rebellion! ”

"Kill!" Eight hundred soldiers, roaring and shaking the sky.

Duan Zan took the lead and rushed out of the barracks. In an instant, they arrived at the foot of Chang'an City.

The sound of breaking the air came to him, and Duan Zan rode on his horse and leaned back suddenly. The long lance in his hand waved the momentum, only to hear a crisp sound of "ding", and a feather arrow was broken by the horse lance and fell next to the horse.

"The rebels in the city listen, a certain is the right Yu Lin Wei Guoyi Du Lieutenant Duan Zhan. If you are caught, there may be a way to live! Duan Zhan raised his horse lance and shouted.

What answered him was a few cold arrows, but Duan Zan was smart, and the eight hundred soldiers behind him were not too close to the city wall, and the arrows were already weak when they arrived in front of him, and they were beaten down.

"Since you are stubborn, let's do it!" Duan Chan shouted.

Suddenly. On the city wall, a blood flower shot out, and a bloody blood gushed out from the neck of one of the rebel leaders. The leader didn't have time to react, his mouth opened at the moment, but he couldn't make a sound after all, and he wanted to look back unwillingly, but he couldn't turn back.

Almost at the same time, several more bloody arrows shot out, and above the city gate, there were several people in official positions. All that was left was cut at the throat and fell to the ground.

"The leader of the rebels is dead, and you still won't surrender?!" Suddenly, several shouts rang out above the city gate at the same time.

Above the city gates. The rebels noticed that a few people wearing black armor and black hoods, only glasses and noses appeared on the city tower.

Only a few screams were heard, and a few people who were just about to raise their weapons were killed in an instant.

"Kill!" Suddenly there was a shout of killing under the city, and the rebels found that the city gate had been opened at some point, and Duan Zan took the lead. Armed with a long lance, he rushed into the city of Chang'an.

Behind him, there was a cloud of right-feather forest guards!

Those black-armored men moved, like afterimages, and wherever they passed, blood splattered, and the rebels fell to the ground one after another.

The city shouted to kill the heavens, the people in black armor in the city were like demon gods, and the rebels couldn't help but retreat, and there was no fighting spirit at all!

The entrance to the imperial city, the Suzaku gate.

The armoured soldiers stood opposite each other.

"Fan Xing, now that the Chang'an City Gate is under my control, the Right Guards will be here in an instant. The army of the king of Yi'an is outside the city of Chang'an, if you have some eyes, you will surrender to me today, and on other days, this general should protect you as the general of the prison gate. The eldest grandson Anye stood in front of the door and said to the other person opposite: "Otherwise, today will be your death!" ”

"In order to repay the king's kindness, the eldest husband has only one dead ear, so why be afraid?" The general known as Fan Xing stood proudly: "There is a certain person today, the eldest grandson Anye, you group of traitors don't want to step through this door!" ”

The eldest grandson Anye sneered: "Hmph, since you toast and don't eat and drink, then don't blame General Ben for not reciting the righteousness of his comrades, come and kill him!" ”

There was no response from behind.

The eldest grandson Anye was shocked, and hurriedly turned around, just as he saw a three-edged spike, which stabbed out of the mouth of the deputy general behind him in a daze, with gurgling blood gushing out of the deputy general's mouth, like a spring. Another lieutenant general is also in the same posture.

Behind the two lieutenants, there was already a corpse.

Several people in black armor and black hoods were standing there, and a piercing chill flashed in the eyes that emerged from under the black hood, which made the eldest grandson Anye suddenly feel a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart, and couldn't help shouting: "Someone! Come! Kill ......"

In the next moment, the eldest grandson Anye found that he couldn't make a sound.

Because of a hand, he had already choked his throat. A sharp pain came from his throat, as if even his neck was about to be pinched off, making the eldest grandson Anye struggle desperately, but the hands were still tightly clamping his neck and not moving.

"Eldest grandson Anye, do you think that you colluded with Li Xiaochang and Liu Deyu to plot rebellion, will Your Majesty not know? Your Majesty today is just watching a farce. Fan Xing also gave the eldest grandson Anye a cold-blooded one, turned around suddenly, and shouted: "The eldest grandson Anye has already bowed his head, and the rebels are stopped, or they may not be killed!" ”

The rebels on the right guard saw that their general was under the control of others, and they did not dare to get started.

In the Right Guard, the shouts of killing gradually faded away, and hundreds of people rushed towards the imperial city.

Seeing that the imperial city was already in front of him, a big knife in Yuan Hongshan's hand suddenly became more energetic, and with a loud roar, Le Ma took the lead in rushing over.

"Enter the imperial city and wait for the arrival of the king of Nghe An!" Liu Deyu shouted, and rushed with Yuan Hongshan to beat the horse, slashing and killing all the way.

It's close! The Imperial City is close at hand, and the Suzaku Gate can already be seen...... No, why is the Suzaku Gate so tight?!

Could it be that the eldest grandson Anye ......

Liu Deyu raised his hand violently, and the rebels of the Right Guard stopped.

"General Liu, don't come unharmed?" On the tower of the city gate, a figure appeared.

"Fan Xing!" Liu Deyu's eyes tightened, and his heart was not good-why haven't King Yi'an's people entered the city yet?!

Fan Xing, the general of the left prison gate, laughed, hooked his hand to the side, and the soldier escorted a person over, trapped with five flowers, not the eldest grandson Anye, who else could it be!

"General Liu, you must have come to find General Changsun, right?" Fan Xing raised his finger and pointed at the eldest grandson Anye, whose face was like ashes, and said with a smile: "That's not good, the eldest grandson Anye actually wanted to open the Vermilion Bird Gate privately, this is a big crime of rebellion, General Liu, what, you are also here to knock on this Vermilion Bird Gate?" ”

"Uncle! ......" Motohiro-seon was frightened.

Liu Deyu's eyes sank: "Definitely! General Ben learned that the eldest grandson Anye wanted to do wrong, so he came to help General Fan! ”

"Hahahaha......" Fan Xing laughed: "General Liu's words, let's go and tell General Cheng!" ”

Liu Deyu was stunned for a moment, and then he heard a piece of iron hooves behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Cheng Biting Jin taking the lead, and the cavalry behind him was like a cloud.

"Wowha, the old man deliberately asked them to let you out of the camp, but I didn't expect you to call Lao Cheng a few times to watch the trick, but you turned your mouth? It's so fucking boring! Cheng Jin's cavalry instantly came to the face, a long-handled giant axe was under the head, and he saw that Yuan Hongshan raised his knife to block it, only to hear a miserable scream, and even the war horse under his crotch couldn't help but bend his front hooves and fell to the ground! I saw Cheng biting Jin with a sharp tip in front of the axe, picking Yuan Hongshan to the back, and laughed: "Sons! Tied up! ”

Liu Deyu was frightened, Queen Cang retreated, seeing that his soldiers had been killed by the attacking cavalry in one look, he couldn't help but panic, and shouted loudly: "King Yi'an's army is outside the city, you can't stop it!" ”

"Li Xiaochang?" Cheng Yanjin laughed: "Your Majesty has already known about the rebellion, and you still expect to see Li Xiaochang's rescuers?" Let me tell you, now the five states of Long, Shi, Jing, Xi, and Long have risen up to surround them, and the rebels in Lizhou are already turtles in the urn. Li Xiaochang, haha, I'm afraid that now I have been taken down by the old lieutenant Chi and Brother Shubao! Liu Deyu, don't you want to be caught? ”

Liu Deyu's face suddenly turned to ashes, he thought that he had a careful plan, but he had already been fully aware of everything, like a monkey, the people around him were watching his jokes, but he didn't know it.

"Defeat is defeated...... Liu Deyu suddenly pulled out the horizontal knife on his waist, and was about to wipe it off his neck, but when he heard a sudden "dang", a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, hitting the horizontal knife in his hand, and suddenly the tiger's mouth was numb, and the horizontal knife in his hand fell to the ground.

The next moment, I only felt a soreness on my waist, and my body suddenly became uncontrollable and fell softly. Immediately after that, a few black-armored people came and tied themselves up.

Cheng Yanjin saw another burst of laughter, pointed at those black-armored people, and praised: "Datang Blade, it really deserves its reputation!" ”

On the outskirts of Chang'an City, in the right Yulin guard camp, Xia Hongsheng listened to the shouting and killing sound in the distance gradually disappearing, smiled, raised his hand and touched the wine bottle on the coal stove, it was still cold.

Pick up the wine bottle and raise a glass in the direction of Chang'an City, and drink it all by yourself. Although alcohol is not allowed in the army, no one will say anything if you celebrate a little, right?

Putting down the wine bottle, Xia Hongsheng filled it with a glass of hot wine. (To be continued.) )
