Chapter 404: Clearing the Portal
"Why did your master betray the Emperor Yang Guang of Sui?"
Shibi sat there with a calm face and stared at the young man in front of him who claimed to be a general of Yundingxing family.
The general looked at Shibi's eyes and avoided it in panic, and said nervously, "My master was originally the father-in-law of the deposed prince, and he was highly valued by the deposed prince. However, Yang Guangyin finally decided to depose the position of the deposed prince. Later, he died in vain. Since then, my master was demoted to a small official by Yang Guang. Later, my master was wronged and begged all over, and gave up half of the family's wealth, so he saved his life. Later, he spent most of his wealth to make friends with the powerful minister Yuwen Shu before he was able to reinstate his post."
"As far as Khan knows, Yun Dingxing is doing well in Sui State. Not only does he hold the position of General of the Youtun Guard, but his family is also a top-notch rich family in the capital. He can be said to be both rich and noble. Why did he betray Yang Guang? The young general's forehead was sweating. It was obvious that the Turkic Khan knew the background of his master so well. He wiped the sweat, "Because, Yang Guang of the Hunjun wanted to kill my master."
Shibi was a little surprised, "Why is this?"
"When the tyrant king learned that the Khan had gone south, he was panicked and fled quickly like a dog from a broken family. However, there were many concubines and eunuchs and maids in the carriage, and they were moving slowly. After reaching the western border, my master advised that if he continued to flee south, he would be intercepted by the Khan's army before he reached Yanmen. Therefore, he persuaded the tyrant king to stick to this pass and wait for the army from Hedong to rescue the tyrant. But the tyrant king could not hear the loyal words, but also said that
My master has ulterior motives and is ill-behaved. He also said that my master had already colluded with the Khan. In front of many ministers and generals, he not only dismissed my master's position on the spot, but also confiscated my master's property. He also blamed my master for dozens of sticks. He still couldn't afford it, and both of them were interrupted. My master was so angry that he decided to be unkind and unrighteous." Looking at the general's face full of resentment and heartbroken look, he didn't seem to be lying.
Shibi sneered, "Since your master has been dismissed and has been cut off, he is already a useless man waiting to die. What else does Khan want him?"
"Da Khan, my master said that if Dahan catches Yang Guang, I will protect my master's wealth and honor. My master is willing to respond to Dahan and help Dahan open the closing of the western border pass. And when the matter is uprising, my master will help Dahan intercept Yang Guang and promise not to let him escape."
"How did Ben Khan believe that a useless man can do this?"
"My master has always been enthusiastic and generous, and is even more so to his subordinates. Although my master has been dismissed now, several generals and schoolmen from his subordinates are willing to advance and retreat with my master." The young general was afraid that he would not believe it at all, so he took out a letter from his arms, which was a blood letter full of blood words and covered with blood handprints. "Shan, this is the blood letter that my master and all the generals have agreed to oath together.
Shibi Khan took the blood letter and read it carefully several times. Sure enough, the beginning of the above was scolding Yang Guang for being stupid. The generals swore together to kill the foolish monarch, surrender to the Turks, and seek wealth together. Below is a row of signatures and bloody handprints, and the first one is Yun Dingxing's name.
"What will your master plan to do?" "Before coming, my master said that if the Khan is willing to protect my master and the wealth of the school.
My master and the generals agreed to raise a fire as a sign at midnight tomorrow night, and open the city gate to welcome the Khan army into the pass to capture Yang Guang alive." Then, the general of the family said some specific codes of the agreement one by one.
"Tomorrow's night is too late, why not just tonight?" Shibi Khan pondered for a while.
The general of the family said in a little embarrassedly, "Khan, the officers on duty tonight are all from Duke Rong and General of the Right Guard. Tomorrow night, it will be the turn of the Zuo Tun Guard on duty, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you start a business tonight, first, the matter will be hasty and time will be too urgent. Second, the people on duty at the close of the door tonight are all from the Right Guard, and it will be difficult to get started for a while."
Shibi pondered for a while, called the Golden Wolf Knight to guard the general, left and walked to another tent to discuss with Chu Luo and others.
In a short while, all the leaders had unified the decision and agreed to accept Yun Dingxing's surrender, and wait until tomorrow night to raid the pass again. Such a decision was not what all the leaders believed in the Yun Dingxing family generals. It was mainly because of the continuous rapid march, and all the tribal cavalry were exhausted. Moreover, although the western pass they faced was just a simple pass, it would be very difficult for them to seize the pass without siege equipment.
The Turks also needed a temporary rest and cut down trees to make siege equipment. The Turks were still willing to wait for a day. After all, if they attacked the city now, the casualties they had to pay would be huge. Few leaders of each tribe were willing to choose this huge casualties before having a better plan.
In the darkness, a team of Golden Wolf Knights escorted Yun Dingxing's generals back to Xixing Pass.
Zhang Yong followed Shibi Khan's army and kept paying close attention to the Turkic movements. He just received a report from his subordinates that Shibi Khan had secretly met a Han man, which immediately aroused him suspicion. He wanted to find out, but Shibi Khan had already made the Golden Wolf Knight unable to escape the tent and had no chance.
However, Zhang Yong had been with Shibi for so long and used a lot of tricks, and had a good relationship with many people around Shibi. With indirect attacks, he still got into a lot of situations.
When Zhang Yong knew that the family of a Sui general was coming and was here to surrender on behalf of his master, Zhang Yong's suspicion became even more serious. After taking a few subordinates, Zhang Yong secretly ran to the darkness not far from the pass and waited. Sure enough, he was wrong. After the talks, the general of the family still had to go back to the pass.
In the darkness, the Golden Wolf Guard and the general said a few more words, turned around and left the only one Yun Dingxing's general standing there.
"General, should we take this man down?"
Zhang Yong shook his head, "Yes, we need to know what deal they made with Shibi.
The general had already ordered that the Turks and the court must fight one battle and consume the strength of both sides. But we must also prevent one of them from being completely defeated. If Yun Dingxing and Shibi had any conspiracy to capture Yang Guang alive, we must prevent this from happening."
The three subordinates also nodded, and everyone also understood the power of this. If Bi Zhen captured Yang Guang alive with the support of Yun Dingxing, it would have ruined the great matter of the general. Zhang Yong made a gesture to the three of them, and the four of them hugged and gently looked at the general Qianyun.
At this time, the family will be walking slowly towards one mountain wall. It is estimated that he was diving out of the mountain.
"Who!" The young general paused, but had already noticed Zhang Yong and others behind him. The young general quickly pulled out two short knives from the tui and turned around to make defensive moves.
In the dim night light, the general was wearing a black night clothes and his eyes were as lightning. Zhang Yong was shocked, but he recognized the Yun Dingxing family general. It was Li Shimin who had raided the commander Chen Kefu and others in Luoshui. When he was attacked that day, Zhang Yong was also a general next to Chen Pojun. He would never forget the memories of his former brothers finally betrayed them.
Regarding Li Shimin's betrayal of the Liaodong Army, all the Liaodong Army wanted to tear him into pieces and crush him to ashes.
At this time, the enemy was even more jealous when they met. Zhang Yong still had several scars on his body when Luoshui was attacked.
Restraining his emotions, Zhang Yong said in Turkic words, "We are sent by the Great Khan, and the Great Khan let us enter the pass with you."
Li Shimin looked at several men in black who came in secret with some suspicion, "You and I will be found out and will ruin the good things of the Khan."
"Really?" Zhang Yong said oh, and walked a few more steps forward. When he was only four or five steps away from Li Shimin, Li Shimin suddenly said in a deep voice, "Are you not a Turk?" Zhang Yong was stunned for a moment, "You know."
"Who are you?" In fact, that was just Li Shimin's fraud, but he didn't expect that he really cheated.
Zhang Yong did not doubt that he was there and whispered angrily, "I am here to collect debts on behalf of more than 100,000 brothers from Liaodong." Without saying a word, Zhang Yong took the lead in attacking, and rushed over the clouds like a hunting cat in the darkness.
Li Shimin crossed his arms and firmly blocked Zhang Yong's angry attack. At this time, Zhang Yong's three subordinates on the other side saw the boss attacking, and they all pulled out their waists and rushed over. Li Shimin held a short knife in each hand, blocking the left and right, but they were extraordinary.
"Are you Chen Pojun's person? A brother of the Liaodong Army?" "Shameless traitor, what qualifications do you have to call the Dazheng's name and what qualifications do you have to call us brothers? Today I will use your blood to pay tribute to the brothers who died in your hands." Zhang Yong took anger and made a move like a fierce move. Although Li Shimin was strong, he had only two short swords in his hand. After fighting dozens of moves, he finally couldn't resist it.
Zhang Yong saw a blank space, and a flash of lightning flashed through the darkness, stabbed into Li Shimin's belly with a loud bang. Blood splattered, and Li Shimin screamed and fell backwards. Zhang Yong wiped a touch of warm blood from the knife, slapped it on his face, and walked forward with a sneering sword, "That one just now is considered to be a repayment of what you owe me. In the battle of Luoshui, we had a total of 438 brothers who died in Luoshui. Today, I want to collect the debt you owe them for each brother. Each one has one knife, and now you are still 438 swords away!"!
