The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 749 Li Yuan's Revenge (2)

It should be said that the generals and their families of the more than 3000 rebels were lucky. The Tang army went to the city to massacre some of them before it was their turn. Another important reason was that these people were not ordinary people. Duan Zhixuan treated them differently and ordered them to be detained. Okay, I'm going to ask for an order to make a decision.

Duan Zhixuan originally thought that these people would be spared, because they were different from ordinary soldiers and common people, especially the children of Wei Zheng and Yang Yong, who had special identities. It was a kind of impulsive short-sightedness, and it would undoubtedly be of great use to keep them at this juncture, but I didn't expect Li Yuan to say such a few words.

Duan Zhixuan knew that Ling Chi's execution was a kind of torture, that is, cutting people alive with a knife, but Wei Zheng, Xiao Meiniang, and Yang Yimeng's punishment was even more terrifying. They cut off their noses, gouged out their eyes, pulled their ears, chopped off their limbs, and lit sky lanterns. That is to cut off the nose first, then dig out the eyes, then cut off the two ears, then chop off the hands and feet, and finally pour fish meat all over the body, and set it on fire from the head, burning people like burning wax. Just hearing the name makes me shudder.

But Li Yuan's words are golden words and imperial decrees, so Duan Zhixuan could only frowned and promised, "I accept the decree."

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty, I have a book to play." When Duan Zhixuan turned around and was about to leave, the right servant Pei Ji bravely came out and knelt down and kowtowed.

Li Yuan has lost his mind now. Although he has captured Daxing City as he wished and killed countless rebel soldiers and innocent people, he is not very happy at this time. He is even furious when he thinks about his daughter. The rebels killed all the people who were on the top to avenge their daughter.Therefore, he hated these senior generals of the rebel army and their families deeply, and gritted his teeth against Wei Zheng and Yang Yong's family members, so he threw out the most severe punishment since he took power.

"Aiqing, why is this chapter?" Li Yuan guessed from Pei Ji's expression and tone that he wanted to stop him, so he became lukewarm towards the celebrity around him.

Pei Ji said: "Your Majesty is wise, in my humble minister's opinion, these people cannot be killed, especially Wei Zheng, Xiao Meiniang, and Yang Yimeng. Not only can they not be sentenced to death, but they must be guarded so that their lives cannot be put in danger."

"Oh? Why is that?" Li Yuan's eyes widened, and he said in his heart, do you want to intercede for my enemy?You eat mine, drink mine, use mine, but stop me from avenging my daughter. Could it be that you are eating and crawling towards Yang Yong?

"Your Majesty, although these people should all be killed, and our army has captured Daxing City, Yang Yong's army is suppressing the situation, and a murderous battle is just around the corner. The strength of the bandit army is so strong that I don't need to say too much. Your Majesty has his own judgment." , and the princess died recently, General Ma Sanbao was also killed, and the [-] Tang troops returned in a big defeat. These greatly affected the morale of the soldiers of the three armies. If they were killed, they would be able to vent their anger for the princess, but in this way, Yang Yong's rebel army It is bound to be a battle of trapped beasts. But if we keep them and use them as bargaining chips in the negotiation, we can take the initiative and force Yang Yong to agree to our conditions, thus defeating this rebel army and completely eliminating Yang Yong. Please think twice, Your Majesty."

Pei Ji's words imply that if we don't use some means, can we beat Yang Yong?It is not yet known who will win the deer, and killing these people is tantamount to cutting off the way out.

"Your Majesty Pei's words are justified, and my ministers seconded my proposals, and my ministers also seconded my proposals. I hope Your Majesty will think twice..." Li Shentong, Liu Hongji, Yin Kaishan, Chai Shao and others also knelt down.

Li Yuan is not confused, after carefully savoring what is going on, he thought to himself, why am I so impulsive?Thanks to these people's reminders, it was almost a big mistake.So he ordered people to detain the more than 3000 people first, and specifically instructed that Wei Zheng, Xiao Meiniang, and Yang Yimeng must be detained separately and await their punishment.

Duan Zhixuan agreed and ordered people to go down and make arrangements.Li Yuan called people together to discuss how to deal with Yang Yong. Some advocated forcing Yang Yong to retreat, some advocated exchanging territory with these people, and some advocated Yang Yong surrendering the letter of surrender.Li Yuan didn't quite agree with these lofty theories.

At this time, Pei Ji saluted and said: "Your Majesty, forcing him to retreat, change territory, and ask Yang Yong to hand over the letter of surrender is all useless. Yang Yong is our confidant. This man is invincible with a sharp gun, his kung fu is strange, and he has narrowly escaped death several times. , this time he must be ruthless to put him to death..."

As he said that, Pei Ji whispered in Li Yuan's ear for a while, and finally said, "Yang Yong will definitely fall for this trick, and even if he doesn't die, he will lose his skin, and then we will take the initiative to attack. When the rebel army loses their morale, they will surely lose, Your Majesty." You can win in one battle. This way, you can avenge the princess and win the world, killing two birds with one stone."

Li Yuan was overjoyed, kept nodding his head in agreement, and then asked Pei Ji to arrange...

The line of sight temporarily returned to Yang Yong's camp.After killing Li Xiuning and Ma Sanbao and defeating the [-] Tang army, Yang Yong continued to drive to Daxing City with an army of [-].

Going forward is Shangluo City, which is the gateway of Daxing City. After passing Shangluo City, Daxing City is two or three hundred miles away.

Yang Yong has already found out that Shangluo was captured by the Tang army. To be precise, the defender of Shangluo betrayed the rebels and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty not long ago.Because it turned out that Shangluo, like Daxing City, was also Yang Yong's territory, but with the fall of Xianyang, Tongchuan and other places and the siege of Daxing City, Shangluo defender Mingzhe protected himself and led his people to defect to the enemy.

Yang Yong was not surprised by this. He has always been the winner and the loser. In the era of war, there are too many people like Shangluo defender who fall with the wind, whichever side is hard. .

Interestingly, when Yang Yong's army approached the city, the Tang army in the city neither fought nor defended the city, but still used their old methods to open the city respectfully and surrender to welcome Yang Yong's troops into the city .

It's just that this time Yang Yong can't tolerate it anymore. Yang Yong decided to severely punish this kind of double-dealing.Therefore, an order was immediately issued to behead the general in public, and then treat the thousands of Tang troops in the city differently. All soldiers who surrendered to the rebel army will be killed now; all soldiers who were originally Tang soldiers who surrendered for the first time will be treated as prisoners , The incorporation of the incorporation, the rate of payment.In this way, more than 3000 people were beheaded and more than [-] people were obtained. After reorganization, the general Zhang Ruixiang was left to guard the city, and he was given [-] elite soldiers to garrison Shangluo.

In this way, Yang Yong's men stayed in Shangluo for two days, and then an army of [-] came to Daxing City in a mighty manner.

Yang Yong's men had just left Shangluo for dozens of miles, and a scout came to report: "The report was made to the prince and learned that Daxing City was captured by the Tang army. Li Yuan sent an order to massacre the city. The life and death of military advisor Wei Zheng and others are unknown."

In a word, Yang Yong was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse, and Wumei and the rest of the soldiers were also shocked. Daxing City was their home, not only because it was the birthplace of Yang Yong's rebel army, but more importantly, many senior generals of the rebel army His family is all in the city, including Yang Yong's wife and daughter, who have now been taken down by the Tang army, and the city has been massacred. This is terrible!

Yang Yong's eyes burst into flames, and he shouted to his opponent: "Pass on the king's order, speed up the march, and recapture Daxing City!"
