Chapter 11: Triumphant Return
Just two hours after Li Gui and Zhang Fan'an commanded 300,000 troops and attacked southward, Princess Yicheng finally set foot on the land of the motherland again after a lapse of twenty years. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the city is in tatters, the yellow sand and dust in the sky are far inferior to the green grass, blue sky and white clouds, and the vast and beautiful scenery on the Xiongnu grassland.
Although the Spikes in Mayi City all looked hostile, as if they would rush up at any time and stab them a few times, they didn't look welcome at all.
Albeit...... Albeit...... Albeit...... ,...... , Da Sui has a thousand kinds of bad, ten thousand kinds of shortcomings.
However, Princess Yicheng stood alone in the carriage, looking out the window at the motherland that she was haunted by, and she cried, crying with great pain and joy.
Compared with Princess Yicheng, Li Daozong, who walked alone at the front of the queue, seemed much more bland.
At this time, Li Daozong's face had neither the slightest sadness, nor the slightest joy, no pride in returning victorious, nor anger because he had been punished, nothing, his expression at this time was completely like a windless lake, and there was nothing else except calm.
"Salute-!" Suddenly, Guo Zihe, who was leading a bunch of generals to stand at the gate of the city and greet Li Daozong's triumph, roared with great excitement.
With his order, on the city wall and on both sides of the avenue, hundreds of thousands of Dasui warriors, at the same time, looked at Li Daozong with great reverence, neatly and proudly, and gave a serious military salute to his deputy commander.
After seeing this scene, Li Daozong couldn't control his emotions anymore, and the two lines of tears flowed silently and involuntarily.
Seeing this, Guo Zihe quickly held back his tears, took a deep breath, smiled and walked over to Li Daozong.
"Daozong, thank you for your hard work! Let's go home!" After finishing speaking, Guo Zihe personally led the horse for Li Daozong, happy and proud, and walked towards the city with his head held high.
"Big ...... , handsome, make ...... , not to be used. After Li Daozong said this in a choked voice, he wanted to turn over and dismount.
However, Guo Zihe quickly turned around, insisted on stopping his movements, and then said to him very solemnly: "Make! How can you not do it? This is what you deserve! Be obedient, give me a good seat." You are a hero!" After speaking, Guo Zihe smiled at him very sincerely, and then led the horse and continued to walk forward with his head held high.
In this way, Li Daozong was greeted by the people of the city, accepted the glory he deserved along the way, and slowly walked into the palace in the city.
In addition to Princess Yicheng, Yang Zhengdao, and the 1,000 retinues of the two of them, the other millions of Hun slaves and the Sui people dressed as fierce slaves, in order to prevent them from being beaten to death by the people in Mayi City, they did not arrange for them to enter Mayi City.
Anyway, they all brought tents and enough food, so they were temporarily on the Gobi Desert and settled down temporarily.
Not only that, even Princess Yicheng and Yang Zhengdao, they were only arranged in the post house by the officials of the Great Sui, and they were not allowed to enter the palace at all.
As soon as he walked into the main hall, as soon as he saw the young marshal who was headed by the hall, Li Daozong was stunned for a moment.
"Rice dumplings, you did a good job. On behalf of Li Tang's hundreds of millions of people, I would like to thank you for your achievements!" Li Shimin stepped forward with a smile, bent down solemnly, and made a big salute to Li Daozong.
Seeing that their own marshals were like this, the other Li Tang generals had no choice but to reluctantly and sparsely make do with Li Daozong.
Li Daozong was at all at a loss at all, he didn't understand the current situation at all, and he didn't know what kind of attitude to face Li Tang's people.
So, he quickly turned his head to look at Guo Zihe, and asked the other party with his eyes how he was going to deal with it.
Sooner or later, Guo Zihe sighed distressedly, and then slowly said to Li Daozong: "Daozong, sit down first." After speaking, he pulled Li Daozong, one of the three main seats in the hall.
Guo Zihe sat on the original seat of Li Gui by himself, arranged Li Daozong in his own seat, and vacated the original position of Zhang Fan'an.
The generals of the Sui army didn't say anything about this, but Li Tang's generals saw that Li Daozong, a little fat man, was sitting in a seat, and their own marshal could only stand below, they immediately became angry and annoyed, and loudly protested against such an unfair arrangement.
Guo Zihe is just very good to his own people, and he is quite ruthless to the enemy.
"Hehehe...... It's not fair, isn't it? Well, respected General Li Tang. What do you think...... , how to do it, is it fair?" Guo Zihe sneered gloomily and asked coldly to Li Tang's generals.
Regarding Li Gui, Zhang Fan'an, and Guo Zihe, Li Shimin has already seen the personalities and styles of these three people, and they are clear and clear.
He saw that Guo Zihe had already moved his murderous intent, so he hurriedly rushed to speak before those reckless Li Tang generals who were full of muscles spoke.
"King Yongle doesn't have to be angry, he has the same insight as these people. After all, we are just a group of prisoners under the ranks, so how dare we have more extravagant hopes? Who dares to open our mouths at will, and the military law will deal with them!" Li Shimin turned his head, glared fiercely at the generals behind him, and shouted extremely sternly.
After hearing his words, Li Daozong was instantly shocked, his eyes widened, and he shook the armrest of the chair extremely hard.
Then, after he smiled reluctantly, he asked Guo Zihe extremely worriedly, "Dashuai, is this...... , which one is the trouble?"
Guo Zihe didn't answer Li Daozong's question immediately, he thought about it in his heart for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Daozong, I'm sorry." Before King Liang left, he specially ordered me to take back your military power. You...... Hand it over. ”
Surrendering the military power was originally expected by Li Daozong, although he was a little reluctant, he immediately took out the military talisman from his arms and handed it to Guo Zihe.
When his subordinates took the talisman and left the main hall, Guo Zihe looked at Li Daozong with a serious expression, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Daozong, Li Tang has seen through the real general trend, lord...... , they have been arrested!"
After hearing this, the pores on Li Daozong's body completely exploded in an instant, and he jumped up from the chair with a rub, and asked with extreme anxiety.
Li ...... He, he, where is he, where ......is he?" After reluctantly asking, Li Daozong was extremely frightened, waiting for Guo Zihe's answer.
Together with Zhang Fan'an, he led 300,000 soldiers and horses, and he was already ...... , go south to extinguish the tang. As soon as Guo Zihe's words fell, Li Daozong popped, spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell on the top of the hall on the spot.
The reason why he wanted to surrender Dasui was just to buy a few years for Li Tang, try to avoid both sides, and he had to fight to the death.
However, in the end, all his hopes have been dashed, for this heavy blow, how can Li Daozong, the uncrowned king who is loyal to Li Tang, be able to withstand it?
As soon as Li Daozong fell, Li Tang also lost his last savior.
The entire hall was completely in chaos.
