Quan Gaihong didn't sleep well that night.

The Tang army stopped at Sanchakou and had not advanced or retreated for more than ten days, which was a big trouble in his heart. Although he comforted himself and persisted for a few more days, when the next cold wave came, the Tang army would freeze to death if they didn't leave, but the actual situation was that the Tang people came from Lushunyun, which seemed to be preparing to spend the winter at Sanchakou.

If the Tang people cannot be repelled in the cold winter, when the flowers bloom in spring and the Tang people are invading, it will be even more difficult for Beisha City to support it.

This worry made Quan Gaihong's sleep very lightly, and there was a little noise outside, which could wake him up.

Therefore, when the sound of killing sounds spread in Beisha City, he immediately woke up: "Have the Tang army attacked?"

But no one responded outside. It was almost midnight. Even if someone was on duty outside, he couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment, so how could he dare to answer randomly?

Quan Gaihong rose up in his clothes, worried, and he kept calm on his face. He called a servant to give him armor. He put on armor here, and finally someone broke in.

"Governor, it's not good, it's not good, Luo Jiuhe has rebelled"

The person who came in was crying. Quan Gaihong was shocked when he heard this. He reached out and took off the knife hanging on the wall: "I knew that Han'er was unreliable, but why did this guy suddenly rebell? Could it be that Quan Li forced him too much and forced him to rebel?"

Thinking of Quanli, he felt aroused: "Where is Quanli, I will hand over the military power to him and call him to quell the rebellion."

"General Quan has been killed long ago. Governor, run away quickly. Luo Jiuhe has gathered the Han army and is about to come here... Governor, let's go to the east gate and escape quickly."

The North Gate was originally in the hands of Luo Jiuhe. Now that he was in trouble, the North Gate could not be left. The Tang army could not be left in the south. The only thing he could be left was the East Gate. When Quan Gaihong heard that Quan Li was dead, he immediately understood that the situation was hopeless and no one could balance Luo Jiuhe.

A servant beside him still felt lucky: "There are only eight or nine hundred Han soldiers in the city, and in a hurry, the Luojiu River can be gathered up to five or six hundred, while the Goguryeo people have thousands. As long as the governor climbs the high place and calls, he will definitely be able to correct the situation...

"How could Luo Jiuhe not have colluded with the Tang army?" Quan Gaihong shouted.

Who are there people around me? Luo Jiuhe dared to make trouble suddenly, so he naturally colluded with the Tang people. He couldn't even imagine this, and even asked himself to climb the high place... At this time, climbing the high place was clearly a gift to the wolf's mouth.

"Go, go quickly..."

He didn't care about everything in the family, and he said sternly. Thinking of Gao Yincheng's fate, he felt chilled and fell into the hands of Tangren. How could his head be kept

But he took the squad of guards out of the mansion and saw a dark sergeant in front of him. The leader had a sword and a spear in the other hand. The blades were shining with a dark red luster. I don’t know if it was stained with blood or the light of a torch reflected.

It was Luo Jiuhe who stepped forward to Quan Gaihong: "Where is the governor's intention to go?"

Quan Gaihong never thought that Luo Jiuhe was so fast that he could kill him in such a short time. But when he saw the soldiers following Luo Jiuhe, he immediately understood, and his face changed drastically: "Tang army... has entered the city."

"It's a great reminder that the governor learned that the Tang army had entered the city from the north gate an hour ago, and then followed me into the military camp. Now, except for a few people who don't know the current affairs, they have been pacified in the city." Luo Jiuhe said with his eyes narrowed.

"Luo Jiuhe, you traitor, I treat you very well. You actually betray me?"

"Quanli's confidant has been recruited, and the governor plans to deal with some of them after the end of this battle." Luo Jiuhe stared at him: "My family has served for your Quan family for three generations. If it weren't for my grandfather, how could your Quan family become the lord of Beisha City? If it weren't for my father, how could you inherit the position of governor? If it weren't for me, how could you order Jilizhou? But how did people treat me well, would you kill all my family?"

Quan Gaihong was stunned. The Luo Jiuhe family served for their family for three generations, and more than six people died in battle. If he said sorry, he would be sorry to Luo Jiuhe first.

"Stop, you traitor, just kill me to vent your anger. Don't harm the people in the city..."

"If you think about the people in the city, you should open the city to welcome the king's army as soon as possible. What are you saying hypocritical at this time?" Luo Jiuhe said: "As for yourself, just rest assured. I plead with Ye Zhanjun, and he said he would only send you back to Chang'an to settle."

"Ye joined the army?"

Quan Gaihong widened his eyes. When did Luo Jiuhe see Ye Chang? Could it be that Ye Chang had already entered the city with the army?

"Ye is here." He was surprised and heard someone say something, and then a young general came from the army behind Luo Jiuhe.

Under the fire, the young general seemed heroic and had a bright look. Quan Gaihong looked at him and could hardly believe that such a young boy was Ye Chang.

"You... how are you going?" As Ye Chang stared at him, he was frightened and didn't know how to deal with it. He spoke out and showed timidity.

"Yi'er's crime should be clear about the punishment and the official canon, and the people who dare to follow the example of "Yi Chang said sternly: "Your accomplice, Gao Yincheng, dies, how can you live?"

Quan Gaihong's knees became weak and he almost sat down. He originally thought that he could be calm under any circumstances, but he never thought that Ye Chang would be almost jealous of his courage.

"However, General Luo pleads for you in his old love, you are just a pig dog. If you use your life to exchange for General Luo's service, Ye has taken a big advantage." Ye Chang said again: "So, I will spare you the death penalty and send it to Chang'an and offer you a prisoner."

This arrangement allowed Quan Gaihong to stand firm and survive. Although he would lose his power forever, he finally left his life.

He could feel that Ye Chang really wanted to kill him. If it weren't for Luo Jiuhe, his life would have been gone. When he looked at Luo Jiuhe again, his expression was a little complicated. Although he still hated him, he could not scold him.

"Let your minion put down his weapons, I don't want to kill more." Ye Chang shouted again.

Quan Gaihong looked back and saw that there were only more than ten followers, and each of them looked like a ground. Without even waiting for his order, someone threw his weapons on the ground. He sighed: "Stop, let's follow Ye's order to join the army... I only hope that Ye's joining the army will restrain the soldiers and do not kill innocent people. The Goguryeo people in this city are innocent and their guilt is all in Quan. Please ask Ye to join the army to do not make things difficult for them..."

"From then on, they are the people of the Tang Dynasty. Under Ye's rule, how could I make things difficult for them?" Ye Chang smiled: "Tie them up and send them back to his mansion... All weapons and armor were found in the mansion, but gold, silver and wealth should not be taken without permission. Those who take advantage of the military law are not allowed to be abused by women. Those who are abused by the mistress will be killed without mercy."

He connected the two orders and the soldiers responded and took action one after another.

Beisha City is a small city, not large in size, and it took no time to settle down again. Although many people were still worried and unable to fall asleep, there was nothing for Ye Chang. In addition to the necessary troops to patrol the city, including the Lushun army entering the city from the south gate, all entered the military camp and began to rest.

"I'm finally busy... I'm tired. I haven't slept much since the day before yesterday." Ye Chang stretched his waist long and smiled at Luo Jiuhe: "General Luo, you have a place to stay at home, so I'll go to your house to disturb you. I wonder if you welcome this uninvited guest."

Luo Jiuhe was stunned when he heard this, and then said, "I'm afraid there will be changes tonight, so I want to stay in the camp...

"Then I'll go to your camp to rest." Ye Chang said without any resistance: "Please lead the way for General Luo."

Luo Jiuhe knew in his heart that this was Ye Chang's way of appeasement of the surrendered army, but even so, he was still looking at Ye Chang's courage and ability. The newly attached army had unstable morale, so Ye Chang dared to stay in it, and it was not possible to have absolute confidence in himself.

After inviting Ye Chang into the camp, Luo Jiuhe was still a little uneasy. If one or two uninformed people in the army mingled in and assassinated Ye Chang, the next day the city would turn into a sea of ​​corpses and blood, and would never have shed much blood like tonight. Therefore, he quietly summoned his trusted officer and whispered: "Ye Zhanjun stayed in my camp. You will lead a team each, rotate once every hour to protect the camp tent of the military. If a mouse mingled in, you should all come to see me."

A confidant officer laughed when he heard this order: "Congratulations to the general."

Another man wondered, "What are the happy events?"

"The general served the Quan family for three generations, and the Quan family was still suspicious and guarded. Ye Zongjun had just arrived overnight and regarded the general as if he was a loyal brother. The general was not allowed to use it in the hands of Quan, but he would definitely be very useful under the tent of Ye Zongjun. Ye Zongjun was young and could be such a high official. First, he was talented, and secondly, he would not have few support from the court. With his credit, the general would definitely be able to show his great fortune."

Hearing what he said, everyone said yes and said joy to Luo Jiuhe. Luo Jiuhe laughed: "If I get a great use, wouldn't it mean that you also have to make great use of everyone and be happy together?"

The next day, Ye Chang lies high until almost Si. This is a rare occasion. During this period, he worked hard and wanted to completely eliminate the hidden dangers of Beisha City, so he was very tired. Now that the task is done, it is inevitable to relax. After waking up, he saw a red light outside, put on his clothes and came out of the tent, and found a red sun hanging in the sky, and the sky had completely cleared. He felt even more relaxed. After exercising his hands and feet, he saw Luo Jiuhe coming over with a food box himself.

"Have you used food in the army? Have you used it yourself?" Ye Chang asked.

"After eating it, Beiyi opened the granary in Beisha City without authorization and slaughtered some cattle and sheep."

"I just said yesterday that this aftermath is all up to you, what can you say without authorization?" Ye Chang waved his hand: "I'm hungry, let me taste the skills of your chef in the army."

After placing the bowls and chopsticks, Ye Chang thought of another question: "General Luo, how many meals are you in your army?"

“Two meals.”

“Two meals…”

Ye Chang pondered for a while and started eating. After eating, he said, "On my side, let alone the guards, even the militia, there are three meals a day. Only when you are full can you have the strength to train your exercises. Only when you are willing to work hard to train your exercises can you eat three meals..."

He looked at Luo Jiuhe while saying that, Luo Jiuhe was confused, and he didn't know what Ye Chang meant. Ye Chang laughed again: "Let's do this, General Luo might as well send an order to find twenty strong men in your army. I will find twenty strong men in our army. How about everyone fighting?

"ah?"

"We soldiers have to be more masculine in school party." Ye Chang had a temporary idea and was not prepared, so he started to be a little rough. Gradually, he thought about it carefully and said, "Let's do this, not just twenty strong men..."

He initially proposed twenty strong men to make the two armies play a tug-of-war competition. The ancient name of tug-of-war originated from the State of Chu and was very popular at this time, and even had a 1,000-person competition organized by the official. However, thinking that he could not achieve his goal by relying solely on tug-of-war, Ye Chang prepared several more projects at the moment.

"The two sides each have the same number of people, with three major events: tug of war, running and football. The people in Xucheng come to watch together, which is considered to be a joy to the people. What do you think?"

Luo Jiuhe lowered his head and felt a little confused: Ye Chang made this matter easy, but he was a little difficult to make a decision. He would strive to win, but he was afraid of offending Ye Chang's subordinates and take the initiative to seek defeat, which would hurt Ye Chang's interest.

Ye Chang saw his expression and knew his plan, and said again: "General Luo, although you have good military management and I have been famous for a long time, some people under my tent have never been convinced. I want to recommend you to the court, but if you can't convince them, you will make me embarrassed... You must do your best, not only to make you famous, but also to teach me a lesson for those arrogant people, so that they can know that there are people outside of them and there are mountains outside of them."

After hearing Ye Chang say this, Luo Jiuhe would not refuse and immediately agreed. Both sides set the time for the trial to be held after lunch, and they went to gather people.

Originally, people were in panic last night, including the Han and Fan soldiers in Guiyi, but now they heard that they were going to have a party, and the two sides sent people to compete, and the people's hearts suddenly became stable: Since Ye Zhanjun was interested in doing this, I think it would not be too harsh to treat the soldiers and civilians in the city.

After discovering that the order was passed down, no matter the tension and worries on the faces of the military and civilians, they disappeared, replaced by joy and longing. Luo Jiuhe suddenly realized and realized Ye Chang's intention. He originally wanted to use this school competition to appease the hearts of the military and civilians in the city.

Since that's the case, he can't let this school competition mess up.

However, he did not know that appeaseing the hearts of the soldiers and civilians in Beisha City was only one of Ye Chang's goals. Ye Chang's real purpose was the 1,500 Han and Fan soldiers in Beisha City.

Originally, there were only 2,000 soldiers in Beisha City, including 500 Han troops. This time, the army was expanded, and the Han troops expanded to 900, while the foreign soldiers had more than 2,000. However, most of the foreign soldiers were destroyed at the hands of Gao Yincheng, either captured or killed. How to solve these soldiers is a problem that Ye Chang needs to consider. With his material resources, it is absolutely impossible to raise so many soldiers, and the only way is to adapt.
