Chapter 191: Master Liang is dead
In Shuofang City, the Prime Minister's Mansion, Liang Shidu had just dressed with the help of the maid, and hurriedly walked out, and saw an orange rising at the end of the dark sky from a distance, which was the color that only a raging fire could burn, as if the entire Shuofang City was illuminated. It was a mess outside, the sound of soldiers running everywhere, noisy shouts, mixed with the sound of arrows breaking through the air, he was a general, and he could hear it. He remembered that the place where the fire rose was none other than Li Zhengbao's General's Mansion. Is this Li Zhengbao going to be opposed?! Liang Shidu's heart was shocked, and he immediately went back to the house, and before the clinker could put on the armor leaf, he heard a voice outside: "Qi Qi Prime Minister!" There are soldiers defending the city besieging the General's Mansion, and now General Li's life and death are unknown, and the General's Mansion has been burned down! General Liang now led people to surround the Prime Minister's Mansion and asked the Prime Minister to go out and explain! ”
What the?! Master Liang was taken aback, and he couldn't even wear the armor, so he pushed the maid over and opened the door, and asked the soldiers outside with a panicked look, "What did you say?!" Liang Luoren came to question his true appearance?! ”
"Yes...... Be! The soldier was taken aback by the hideous appearance of Liang Shidu, and said tremblingly: "General Liang led his troops to besiege the Prime Minister's Mansion, saying that he wanted to ask the Prime Minister why he sent people to besiege General Li, burn down General Li's mansion, and let the Prime Minister go out to explain, saying that he wanted to seek justice for General Li!" ”
"Send someone to besiege Li Zhengbao?!" Liang Shidu was suddenly furious: "When did the prime minister send people to besiege Li Zhengbao!" Where is Liang Luoren, let him ......"
Halfway through his words, Liang Shidu stopped talking.
He has realized that by now, it doesn't matter whether or not he sent people to besiege Li Zhengbao. The important thing is that Liang Luoren has surrounded his mansion, and the defenders in the city do not seem to have come to relieve the siege.
Liang Shi didn't say a word and crossed the soldier. Then he hurried into the backyard.
"Quick! What about your people? Let your people kill Liang Luoren! Without knocking on the door, Liang Shidu directly pushed open the door and yelled at the woman who was holding a cup of weak tea and holding half a piece of crisp cake in her hand: "Kill Liang Luoren." I will promise you to raise an army to attack Xiazhou, unite with the Turks to go south, and help you recapture the country! ”
"Tut-tut......" The woman didn't seem to see Liang Shidu's eagerness, and still ate the half of the crisp cake in small bites. Then he took another sip of weak tea, then smiled softly and said, "I can see the appearance of the prime minister, and the concubine is really lucky." However, now that the prime minister has come to say this to the concubine, I am afraid that it is a step too late after all! ”
"You! ......" Liang Shidu's eyes froze, and he was about to speak, but he suddenly felt a cold on his neck, so he immediately stepped back, but he still felt a burst of pain. When he reached out and touched it, he saw blood stains on his hands, and when he looked up, he saw that the woman with the mask was standing in front of him.
Liang Shidu wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't make a sound.
The severed throat kept bleeding out like a gushing spring. Everything around me, the sound of running, shouting, horses' hooves, swords...... Everything seemed to be rapidly peeling away from his surroundings, leaving only the fire that filled the night sky in front of him.
In the second year of Zhenguan, Liang Shidu, who had been in Shuofang for 12 years. Died in the midst of the rebellion of his relatives.
Liang Shidu's cousin, Liang Luoren, took over Liang Shidu's position and became the master of this Shuofang City.
For the people of Shuofang City, no matter whether the owner of Shuofang City is Liang Shidu. or Liang Luoren, it's all the same. They are just ordinary people without strength, and no matter what happens to the sky above them, their situation will not change much. Therefore, Liang Shidu's death is just a few chats after tea and dinner, and a few rumors from each other.
Sergeant in Shuofang City. It is believed that Liang Shidu sent troops to kill Li Zhengbao, causing Li Zhengbao to escape from Shuofang, and now his life and death and whereabouts are unknown. Li Zhengbao was no longer there, and Liang Shi was dead, so Liang Luoren took over Shuofang's military power as a matter of course.
Liang Luoren's purpose finally succeeded, but there was one thing that he couldn't figure out, so he couldn't be happy.
"Why, the general finally got his wish and became the master of this Shuofang, but why is he still frowning?" The woman's voice sounded, Liang Luoren raised his head, and saw the oncoming woman with a smile like a flower.
It's just that Liang Luoren's brows are a little deeper, he is not Liang Shidu, and he thinks that he will definitely not be confused by this woman and decide his behavior. She is just a tool he uses, and it must not be the other way around! Liang Luoren admonished himself in his heart, and then raised his head and said, "That night, before I went, someone was already besieging Li Zhengbao's mansion. And the people we sent to besiege were instead killed and fought by them as defenders. Unexpectedly, the personal soldiers around Li Zhengbao were so powerful, and they insisted on escorting Li Zhengbao out of the encirclement and arriving at the city gate. Li Zhengbao just reported his name and shouted, "How can you wait for my life to die here", and the soldiers guarding the city gate opened the city gate and let him go, and the prestige of this person was unmatched in the Shuofang army. It's just that if Liang Shidu really didn't besiege Li Zhengbao, then who would be the one who besieged his mansion before me? ”
"The general is saying that before you go, Li Zhengbao's mansion has been besieged?" The woman was stunned for a moment, rolled her eyes, and asked again: "When the general arrived, did you see the people besieging Li Zhengbao?" ”
"At that time, there were a lot of people in a hurry, but I didn't see it clearly, but I saw Li Zhengbao surrounded by a group of personal soldiers and was heading towards the city gate." Liang Luoren shook his head and said.
The woman bowed her head in contemplation and said no more.
At the same time, Xia Hongsheng, who was in the Xiazhou Mansion, was also bowing his head and pondering.
The team of people in front of them was clearly also going towards Li Zhengbao, because they were killing when they were chasing, and there were even sharpshooters who shot Li Zhengbao specifically. Moreover, at that time, the special combat forces here had stopped feintting to attack the General's Mansion and were protecting Li Zhengbao, they were all wearing Shuofang military uniforms, and people who did not know the inside story would definitely think that they were the pro-soldiers protecting Li Zhengbao's retreat, and would not think that they were the people besieging the General's Mansion. So in this case, those people are still chasing and killing, which shows that their purpose is not to protect Li Zhengbao, but to kill Li Zhengbao.
Later, Liang Luoren appeared with troops to rescue Li Zhengbao, which also made Xia Hongsheng feel a little surprised.
From the siege of Li Zhengbao's mansion by the special combat team to the appearance of Liang Luoren's troops, it was only a stick of incense before and after, how could Liang Luoren lead his troops to arrive so quickly?
And after Liang Luoren appeared, those pursuers stopped chasing and killing, and even took back their bows and arrows.
Just thinking about it, he suddenly heard Qi Yong's voice from outside the door: "Childe, the person who went to inquire about the news has returned." ”
"Come in!" Xia Hongsheng said yes in the room, and then the door was pushed open, and several spies walked in from the outside.
When Qi Yong closed the door, Xia Hongsheng immediately asked, "How?" What's going on in Shuofang City now? ”
"Good to teach the general to know." The spy officer in the lead said: "Liang Luoren failed to leave General Li Zhengbao, so that night he instigated Shuo Fang soldiers to surround the Prime Minister's Mansion on the grounds that Liang Shi was besieging General Li, resulting in General Li's life and death and whereabouts unknown, and Liang Shi died in the riot, and now Liang Luoren is in charge of Shuo Fang and has become the master of Shuo Fang!" ”
"Take the capital of Liang and replace it...... Xia Hongsheng muttered: "He, Liang Luoren, is so courageous, isn't he afraid that the Turks will take the opportunity to attack Shuofang in the name of this?" What's the news coming back from the Turkic side lately? ”
Another spy immediately replied: "There is no big news, but the only useful information worth noting is that the Turks froze to death a lot of cattle and sheep in the great cold." Now Jieli and Turki are attacking each other, but their attitude towards Shuofang does not seem to be relaxed, and once Shuofang changes, it seems that the Turks will still come to help. ”
Xia Hongsheng nodded and said, "There is a great drought in the Guannei, but there is still heavy snow on the Turkic grasslands, it's really ...... Go down, re-infiltrate Shuofang City, and don't use your previous identity anymore. went to Shuofang City to continue to spread rumors, this time, it was said that the Turks knew what happened in Shuofang, and knew that Liang Luoren killed Liang Shidu and replaced him, so they wanted to send troops to Shuofang. ”
"Obedience!" The spies immediately took the order and said.
Xia Hongsheng nodded and said, "Go down, by the way, call a few squad leaders of the special combat team, I have something to order." ”
Soon, the leaders of several special operations teams came to Xia Hongsheng's room.
"Now that things are almost in the Shuo side, the five and six teams stay as a contingency to deal with the situation in Shuo Fang." Xia Hongsheng went straight to the point and said to those squad leaders: "The rest of the four squads, after supplying, set off immediately and pretend to be merchants to go to the Turks, and when you get there, there will be our spies to connect with you." Your task is to pretend to be a man who is going to make a fire in his backyard and vice versa as soon as there is any movement in Jieli. If the two parties are ready to join forces to help Shuo Fang, then blame each other, in short, use all your means to secretly drag them and prevent them from freeing up their hands to take care of Shuo Fang's affairs, I will immediately write a letter to Chang'an, and send additional people to assist you, understand? ”
"Understood!" The squad leaders shouted in unison, then turned around and left Xia Hongsheng's house and went to get ready.
Shuofang City was in turmoil, and Liang Shi died. Liang Luoren is newly ascended to the throne and is facing pressure from the Turks. In this way, it is finally time to put pressure on Shuo Fang.
Xia Hongsheng took a deep breath, sat down at the table, spread out a piece of silk cloth, and took out a copy of "The Art of War" from his arms, and wrote ciphertext on the silk cloth according to the words on it. (To be continued.) )
