Chapter 295: Li Chengqian can't die
If there is a heaven in the distance, people will die, and the sound of war will be thousands of miles, the cold wind will rise, and the horse's hooves will be urgent!
Looking at a phalanx not far away, Huang Jie's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, and the Lotus Mountain was close in front of him, but he couldn't go up the mountain.
"Huang Jie, surrender, if you surrender, you will be left with a whole corpse!" Ma Zuo's eyes narrowed slightly, in his eyes, dozens of Li Chengqian were already dead, and the only thing he wasn't sure about was how they would die.
Looking at Ma Zuo's chain mail, Huang Jie shook his head sadly, "Ma Zuo, Huang doesn't understand, you have the emperor's grace, why do you do these things?" ”
"Huang Jie, do you know, it's not that the general will do whatever he wants, have you ever seen a general in Shangzhou who doesn't have a talisman and a big seal?"
"How so? You don't have the right to transfer troops, so who is the talisman in your hands? Huang Jie was a little surprised, even Li Chengqian couldn't imagine that Ma Zuo would say such a thing, Li Chengqian helped the crooked purple gold crown, thought about it and smiled, "Ma Zuo, you are really pitiful, a general, but you have to listen to Guan Lin, if you are not mistaken, the talisman should be in Guan Lin's hands, right?" ”
"Yes, Your Highness, you are a good prince, but you shouldn't listen to Qin Tingshi, if you leave Yushan County early, there will be no danger today!" Ma Zuo sighed, to be honest, he didn't want to kill Li Chengqian in his heart, but now he has no choice, Ma Zuo's gray beard fluttered in the wind, a sword was slowly raised, he shook his head and said, "Your Highness, don't blame the general, the general has no choice!" ”
Li Chengqian closed his eyes and listened to the shouts from afar, the small lotus mountain became his burial place, Li Chengqian was unwilling, the sad song was written for him Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian pulled out his sword, gently touched the cold sword body, he suddenly raised his head and laughed, "Father, my son is sorry for you!" I don't know when, the sword in Li Chengqian's hand slowly wiped towards his neck, and Huang Jie grabbed Li Chengqian's hand in a flash of light, Huang Jie knelt on the ground and persuaded, "Your Highness, please, let the last general fight it!" ”
"Your Highness, General Huang is right, let's fight once, maybe General Fang's reinforcements have arrived!" All the East Palace guards knelt down, and at this moment they were all ashamed, but the dignified East Palace guards couldn't protect their master, so they forced him to kill himself to save his reputation.
Li Chengqian stood quietly, he didn't say a word, he pointed to the Lotus Mountain and clenched his fists hard, after a long time, Li Chengqian limped and walked two steps, he leaned his neck and shouted, "Okay, you have to fight, Lone will accompany you, Ma Zuo, come on, Lone will stand here, Lone wants to see how you can match your heart!" ”
Ma Zuo trembled, looking at such a tough Li Chengqian, Ma Zuo seemed to see Li Shimin back then, how similar it was, but today he Ma Zuo was going to kill Li Shimin's son. Ma Zuo closed his eyes in pain, the hundred cavalry of the year, but now he is a rebel and thief, Ma Zuo took a breath, and finally gave an order, "Do it, don't let go of the arrows, leave the whole corpse!" ”
"No!" A thousand soldiers formed three columns, they came step by step with spears, the black boots stepped on the ground and made a rustling sound, listening to the rustling sound, Huang Jie's bloody knife rubbed the ground and slowly raised, the last battle, life and death were already far away in the sky.
Ma Zuo pressed towards Li Chengqian step by step, but before he took any further steps, his heart would tremble, he felt that he really couldn't do it, and he didn't think of the scene when Li Shimin led the hundred cavalry to charge into battle, Ma Zuo had a sense of grief coming. Mazo has only one wish now, and that is to end it quickly, no matter who dies, as long as he doesn't suffer anymore.
There was a loud bang, and I saw a group of people rushing down from the Lotus Mountain, they were dressed in special clothes, everyone was carrying a bow and crossbow, and they were holding a long Tang knife in their hands. A big flag, with a big "item" on it, the battle flag is flying, the soldiers are like dragons, as soon as he sees this group of fierce soldiers, Li Chengqian finally breathed a sigh of relief, he scolded in his heart, "Fang Jun, this bastard, finally sent someone!" ”
"Who's coming?"
"Xiang Shuo, the general of the left Wuwei and the right battalion, presumably General Ma should have heard of it!" Rampant laughter came, but Ma Zuo couldn't get angry at all, it was actually Xiang Shuo, how could he appear here, wasn't he in Chang'an City? At this time, no matter how stupid Ma Zuo was, he knew that he had fallen into other people's calculations, and even Zuo Wuwei appeared in Lotus Mountain, so what about the others? Will there be no reaction from Suzhou Daying and Hangzhou Daying?
"It's not good, hurry, shoot Li Chengqian to death, otherwise it's over!" A panicked sound, and then a government soldier immediately took a bow and arrow and aimed at Li Chengqian, from taking the bow to leaving the string is an instantaneous thing, Li Chengqian would not have thought of such a change, Huang Jie wanted to run over to block the arrow for Li Chengqian, but he was too far away from Li Chengqian, Huang Jie's heart was about to jump out, he shouted, "Your Highness, lie down quickly, quickly!" ”
It's a pity that Huang Jie's shout was too late, the arrow came to the wind, and it flashed a faint blue light, Huang Jie knew that this arrow must have been smeared with poison, it's over, everything is over, is it inevitable that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will die after all? No one would have thought that the change would happen so quickly, the sound of the wolf's tooth arrow entering the flesh came, but it was not Li Chengqian who fell, no one thought that Ma Zuo would block this arrow for Li Chengqian, Ma Zuo's body slowly softened, he lay on the ground and kept coughing up blood in his mouth, and his white beard had already been dyed red by blood. His body was in pain, and death was slowly approaching, but Ma Zuo showed a smile that he hadn't seen for a long time, "Your Highness, forgive the last general, please tell Your Majesty that Ma Zuo didn't embarrass the hundred horses!" ”
"General Ma Lao rest assured, Cheng Qian must tell his father that every hundred horsemen are loyal men!" Ma Zuo went, he closed his eyes forever, and no one saw Li Chengqian turn his head. Li Chengqian felt that he was really cowardly, and he actually shed tears, for a person who wanted to kill him, Li Chengqian didn't know how to evaluate Ma Zuo, Ma Zuo is not tired of living like this, maybe death is his best destination!
With the Zuowuwei Special Battalion brought by Xiang Shuo, the 1,000 soldiers did not resist for long at all, and then died and surrendered, when all the rebels were resolved, Xiang Shuo walked up to Li Chengqian and saluted respectfully and said, "Your Highness forgives your sins, the end will be late, and you will be frightened!" ”
"General Xiang is exempt, what are you guilty of, by the way, what about Fang Jun?"
"His Royal Highness Xie cares, the young general is safe and sound now, and the last general also listened to the general of the young general, and he didn't dare to delay, and he didn't think it was a step too late to come all the way from Bishan!" Xiang Shuo really didn't dare to think about it, if it was one step too late, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really died in front of Lotus Mountain, what would be the situation, not to mention the rest, at least the young general would be killed by the ginseng of the court.
"Bishan?" As soon as he heard that he was coming from Bishan, the unhappiness in Li Chengqian's heart disappeared without a trace, no wonder he hadn't seen reinforcements arrive for a long time, this Bishan was at least three days away from Yushan County, and this Shuo was already desperate to come at this time.
When Xiang Shuo's Zuo Wuwei returned to Yanzidang, the situation here was basically settled, it turned out that not long after Li Chengqian's withdrawal, Deng Chaoyang's Suzhou camp rushed to Yanzidang, although at least half of the government soldiers in the Suzhou camp were passively responding, but this change still won a little time for the later reinforcements. Hangzhou battalion, perhaps this is the most combat-effective army in the south of the Yangtze River, because the controller of the Hangzhou battalion is Xue Wanche, the general of the right guard who once shocked the Tang Dynasty.
Xue Wanche was dressed in silver chain mail, his face was slender, and his sharp eyes were like goshawks, seeing Xue Wanche Guan Lin's face was like a dead father, he roared angrily, "Xue Wanche, you are a traitor seeking glory!" ”
"Guan Lin, what kind of person is Xue, do you need to tell you, Xue is too lazy to bother with a villain like you!" Xue Wanche's expression was angry, what he hated most in his life was that others said that he was a traitor to seek glory, when did he Xue Wanche do anything like a traitor to seek glory.
"Xue Wanche, what are you not a traitor seeking glory, your master has only been dead for a few years, and you have a shy face to slap Li Shimin, saying that it is light for you to betray the lord and seek glory!" Lai Yuanhua and Xue Wanche are also acquaintances, since seeing Xue Wanche, Lai Yuanhua is like finding an old acquaintance.
"Lai Yuanhua, take care of yourself, you didn't have good eyes to follow Dou Jiande back then, but now your vision is still so bad, who is not good, you have to follow this group of villains who hide their heads and tails!" Xue Wanche is not a dry eater, Lai Yuanhua can belittle him, why can't he be sarcastic about this Lai Yuanhua, obviously a capable person, but he has a poor vision to death.
"Deng Chaoyang, the old man didn't expect that the dog he raised back then would dare to bite the owner!" Wen Yan said with great mockery, and Deng Chaoyang didn't even dare to say a word, because he was indeed a dog, and he didn't dare to glare at Wen Yan when he was sure that the defeat of Jiangnan officialdom was decided.
In the direction of Lotus Mountain, a team of people and horses walked firmly, and after seeing the person who took the lead, Guan Lin took two steps back in fear, and he pointed to the man's heart and trembled, "Li Chengqian, you are not dead!" ”
"Yes, Guan Lin, this prince is not dead, are you disappointed?" Li Chengqian said with great relief, he had never been so comfortable, and seeing the enemy's dead father's face, Li Chengqian was very refreshed.
"Attend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Xue Wanche took the lead, Zhao Chong followed, and a group of generals knelt down respectfully, this time not only the generals, but even the Yangzhou officials who ignored Li Chengqian just now also knelt down.
"Excuse me, get up!" Xue Wanche, Zhao Chong and the others all stood up, but there was still a group of people kneeling on the ground, including the government soldiers from Yangzhou and the officials from Suyang Prefecture, all of them were trembling, and even fainted directly. Li Chengqian is alive, and they are the ones who die, so they don't dare to get up.
Li Chengqian sighed, these officials, they knew it now, why bother in the first place?
