Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Assassination of the Prince
Hearing this, Li Mingyuan gritted his teeth and asked, "Where are the people now?" Catch and die on the spot! ”
The sergeant saw Li Mingyuan's gritted teeth, and hurriedly lowered his head and said cautiously: "Those people ran away!" ”
Li Mingyuan's body shook and he almost vomited blood in anger, it was a joke that the military camp of tens of thousands of people couldn't catch a handful of assassins. He really smiled, the smile on his face was very kind, he stepped out of his seat, quickly pulled out the long knife on the guard's waist, and slashed off the head of the soldier kneeling in front of him. Blood splattered on his face Li Mingyuan didn't care at all, and stretched out his tongue to lick the blood at the corner of his mouth, looked around at the generals in the big tent and said: "Today, Li Yunqing beat the lonely king by surprise, and it is inevitable that there will be some accidents, but from this moment on, there must be no similar accidents, otherwise it will ......" Li Mingyuan did not finish his words, but just looked at the corpse of the dead sergeant on the ground.
Situ Zhi saw all this in his eyes, and he couldn't help but gasp. Something is wrong, Li Mingyuan is going crazy. If it weren't for this, he would never have hacked a sergeant to death in front of so many generals, which was somewhat of a disregard for human life.
Situ Zhi could never have imagined that Li Mingyuan was already out of control as soon as the war began, and no matter how smart he was, he couldn't figure out the reason. In fact, all this is just cause and effect, unexpected and reasonable cause and effect. Li Mingyuan has been watching the throne for a long time. More than ten years of unattainable hope has distorted his tormented heart, and after the incident, the siege of the city and the village went surprisingly smoothly, making him feel that he was one step away from the throne. At this time, Li Yunqing suddenly launched an attack on himself, and he attacked with great momentum. Not only that, but in broad daylight, he actually sent a team of people to assassinate himself in a grand manner, and his own people have not caught the other party. This series of changes made Li Mingyuan a little unacceptable, and Li Yunqing's actions made him unexpected.
Li Mingyuan's panic was exactly what Li Yunqing wanted to see, he knew that he didn't have the slightest combat experience, and he also knew that Li Mingyuan's fighting spirit was high at the moment, including the sergeants under his command who wanted to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions after the initial victory. Under such a scenario, Li Yunqing could only surprise him, shake his mind, and prepare for the follow-up battle. Once there is fear in the heart, everything seems to be much simpler.
Just when Li Mingyuan's murderous intent was flourishing, the opposite side collected troops, and he looked like he would fight again another day. Li Mingyuan gritted his teeth in the back hall, eager to devour his cousin alive. He secretly swore in his heart that if he caught Li Yunqing in the future, he would have to torture him well, and finally cut him again.
There was no word for a night, and early the next morning, the sound of fighting was heard again in the Hongzhou military camp, and another team of assassins appeared. In order to survive, the Hongzhou sergeant was very desperate this time and captured five assassins, but unfortunately the other party had committed suicide at the moment he was caught. Li Mingyuan can be said to be disheveled at the moment, and he came to assassinate him early in the morning, which really made him feel the urge to scold.
At the end of the day, Li Yunqing didn't move, and Li Mingyuan was a little confused. It was another morning, and everything was very calm, and the Assassin did not reappear. Just when Li Mingyuan thought that he was going to have another dull day, he was patrolling around the barracks when he saw a man in black rushing towards him, holding a dagger in his hand and stabbing him in the chest, but at this time, a big shield blocked Li Mingyuan's body, and the man in black wanted to run when he saw that he couldn't turn around. As soon as he turned around, he was covered in a rain of arrows, and in an instant he was pierced into a hedgehog.
Li Mingyuan was completely furious, he didn't believe that the assassins sent by Li Yunqing in his camp could play any role, but for three days in a row, there were assassins assassinating him in the open, this feeling was really not very good. After roaring wildly in the big tent for a while, Li Mingyuan gave the order to retreat. Situ Zhi cautiously said a method when Li Mingyuan was tired of roaring. Fall back. Let the other party cross the Daqing River, and then beat the dog at the gate.
After Li Mingyuan retreated, Li Yunqing crossed the Daqing River without hesitation, and his generals naturally advised him to be careful of the other party's ambush before crossing the river, but Li Yunqing only said that he had his own plans. The crossing of the river by 100,000 troops is naturally not a matter of one or two days, and Li Yunqing, as the emperor, naturally cannot be the first to cross the river, nor can he be the last to cross the river. Therefore, in the past two days, he has nothing else to do except review the important recitals sent by Beijing, and the recitals sent by the emperor in the army are naturally the most important, and the number is naturally very small.
After handling the two pieces of the book at hand, Li Yunqing held a book of soldiers in his hand and looked at it carefully, the so-called book of war was a book of war written by a person named Yue Song. This Yue Song was a military wizard 3,000 years ago, and he compiled his experience into a book of war, which was regarded by the generals as the best choice for marching and fighting for 3,000 years. I picked up the tea bowl at hand and brought it to my mouth, but found that it was empty. He knocked on the tea bowl with the lid and said, "Come on, add tea." ”
Feeling a bowl of new tea in front of him, Li Yunqing took a sip of it, stared at the book of soldiers, and said, "Is it that these two days have been too leisurely, and you have become more and more lazy, or do you feel that you are old and can't do it anymore?" ”
"It's only been a few days since we were apart, and you think I'm old?" A gentle voice like heaven came into Li Yunqing's ears.
Li Yunqing raised his head violently when he heard this, and his heart was shocked again. The peerless face that I thought would only appear in my dreams from now on actually appeared in front of my eyes at one time. After settling down, he smiled and asked the beautiful woman in front of him, "Why are you here?" ”
When Zhao Bingyan heard this, he naturally lay down on the seat next to Li Yunqing, gave him a white look, and said, "I'm afraid you'll die." ”
Li Yunqing smiled even brighter and pulled the beauty into her arms, Zhao Bingyan snorted but did not resist, and let Li Yunqing hold her in her arms. I only heard Li Yunqing say lightly: "For your sake, I have already let you go once, since you have thrown yourself into the net again, I will never let go again!" ”
Zhao Bingyan didn't answer when he heard this, he quietly leaned on Li Yunqing's heart and listened to his strong heartbeat, and said faintly after a long time: "You have just been on the throne for less than three years and have made such a big move, it is really a bit risky, the Son of Heaven is the supreme man in the world, the foundation of the country, with the current national strength of the Great Qian Dynasty, do you have to drive the imperial expedition in person?" ”
Li Yunqing shook his head when he heard this: "What you said is both right and wrong. Seeing Zhao Bingyan raise his head and look at himself, his eyes were full of puzzlement, and he continued: "I am not like Taizu who immediately won the world and killed Long Wei. Taizong was already an adult when he ascended the throne, and with the power of Taizu, he sat on the throne fairly steadily for twelve years. It's a pity that Taizong fell ill later, and his control over the imperial court weakened, and Li Mu and others began to emerge and were born in chaos. The people have doubts about the royal family, so I must let the people of the world see that the royal family is still strong, and the Great Qian Dynasty is still the same as the Great Qian Dynasty it used to be. And the easiest way to prove the strength of the royal family is to let the people see the strength of the emperor, and I want to use Li Mingyuan's head to consolidate my country! ”
Zhao Bingyan changed to a more comfortable position, put his head on Li Yunqing's lap, and looked at Li Yunqing helplessly: "For the emperor, the most important thing is really the country." ”
Li Yunqing lowered his head violently, and the tips of the noses of the two touched together in an instant. Zhao Bingyan's breathing was a little short, his eyes were full of panic, and the seductive daughter's unique body fragrance penetrated into Li Yunqing's nose, making his mind lose in an instant, and he quickly kissed the seductive cherry lips in front of him. Zhao Bingyan just struggled for a moment, then closed his eyes and let Li Yunqing vent his affection. After a long time, when Zhao Bingyan felt that all the strength in her body was going to be taken away, Li Yunqing let her go, looking at Zhao Bingyan with a flushed face and hazy eyes, Li Yunqing smiled playfully and said: "Jiang Shan I naturally want it, and I will not let go of the beauty." ”
