I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

He hadn't caught up with the Eastern Expedition to Goryeo before, and now he has no part in fighting the Turks. Does he have to salute first when he sees the old brothers in the army?

But the orders have already been issued, and as a soldier, he has no other choice but to obey, and if he really refuses, it will be difficult to find someone who can replace him in a short while.

Three days passed quickly, and Qin Qiong finally set off with the army.

Because the ostensible order was to switch defenses and be transferred back to the pass, so even if Qin Qiong knew it, everyone else knew it, and nine out of ten he was going to go out to fight, but some things should be seen through and not revealed.

Therefore, there was no large-scale swearing-in meeting for this departure, and everyone seemed to be transferred on a daily basis. They rode horses and brought food and grass in such a hurry to take advantage of the dawn and set off directly on the road.

The [-] cavalry is not just as simple as [-] horses. The pack horses responsible for logistics, and the spare horses are all messed up. There are nearly [-] horses running together here, let alone the passing local government. Shocked, even Qin Qiong was the first to see Datang's military appearance so neat.

You must know that these 6 people are not easy. First of all, all of them are veterans, not to mention, they were all under the hands of the richest Zhang Nuo. The equipment is naturally not comparable to that of the poor gang of Wuwei in the past. A brand new dragon The scales almost glowed in the sun.

If Qin Qiong hadn't forced everyone to put away their armor, it is estimated that these idiots would have worn their clothes all the way through regardless of the high temperature in the dog days.

But having said that, this handsome armor is really handsome. When Qin Qiong first got it, he couldn't help wearing it on his body for a long time.

Standing on the top of the small hill and watching the long team not running to the end for a long time, Qin Qiong felt extraordinarily proud, this is the military appearance of Datang, this is the cavalry under his command, so proud!

Because the whole team is too large, and there are strict rules for the army to travel, Qin Qiong strictly divides the whole team into three armies: front, middle and back.

And Cao Xing was not arranged by Qin Qiong in the former army as he guessed, but was directly placed by Qin Qiong in the commander's account of the Chinese army, and was arranged next to him. To be honest, Cao Xing didn't understand at all. , what is this for?

You must know that the burden on his shoulders is not small at all. Although there will be a battle with the Turks, it is up to him whether this battle is a famous one or a mess, but why is General Qin silent?

Chapter 656 Preparations Before Killing

Cao Xing held back for several days, and seeing that he was about to enter the Liaodong Road, Cao Xing couldn't hold back any longer, so he went to Qin Qiong's side to ask questions while he was resting.

Qin Qiong looked at the nervous Cao Xing, kicked him angrily, and then said slowly,

"Your Majesty has already sent Mr. Fang over there to discuss the issue of Feng Chan, and at the same time to seal the current Patriarch. So, you still have twelve days!"

"In addition, you have put all your hundreds of people in the former army. You have all arranged scouts. Starting tomorrow, you will arrange for them to expand the scope of investigation, so you will understand by then!"

Cao Xing suddenly realized and nodded, understood, if he still doesn't understand for this sake, he can die.

Qin Qiong's arrangement is actually very simple, it is nothing more than a deformation of the previous little arrangement of adding troops and reducing stoves.

Since it is a scout, it is natural to go out to inquire about the news, not every scout team can go out on the same day and return on the same day, especially when the coach asks to expand the scope of the scout, then sometimes go out to scout once and last for three to five days All normal.

Then it will be easy at that time. Anyway, Cao Xing does not hold any specific position in the army today, but just follows Qin Qiong. When the time comes, he will disappear for a few days without anyone knowing. Even if he finds out, Qin Qiong will say something casually. If there are other arrangements, it will be fooled. After all, he is the current coach.

Now that Cao Xing knew that the arrangement was made, he felt more at ease. He was afraid that things would go wrong. Now it seems that, alas, these big bosses have already arranged things clearly, and he himself is just doing dirty work. tool people.

For the army on the march, time is a very serious thing, if they fail to arrive on time, they will be beheaded according to the rules, which shows the strict military regulations of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, the army marched quickly in strict accordance with the pre-determined route and time. Cao Xing, who was originally in high spirits, had to rush back to Chang'an from Pyongyang after a few days of rest because he had just traveled thousands of miles from Chang'an to Pyongyang. I have to take a long way around, and the whole person is depressed.

If it weren't for his own insistence, Qin Qiong would have planned to contact His Highness and the others to change people.

It took ten days to walk steadily all the way, and at the time of No. 11 Tiantian, Cao Xing greeted Qin Qiong quietly early in the morning and rushed to the front army.

Then he changed into a suit of armor and mixed into a scout team. Only he, Qin Qiong and Qin Qiong's two cronies knew that these people were actually drawn by Cao Xing from Zhang Nuo's pro-army.

However, Qin Qiong's two cronies also knew that these people were arranged by His Highness. They didn't know the specific arrangement, and they didn't dare to ask. After all, they were not fools. As a veteran in the army, he naturally knows what the more he knows, the faster he dies.

According to the agreed time, after dispatching more than a dozen meticulous scouts who read as Qin Wang's personal army, Cao Xing led the team and started running wildly.

As a scout troop, two horses are necessary. After a whole day of running wildly, they finally arrived at the pre-arranged station, and the station here has already prepared spare horses, and they took the channel of Baiqisi. The manpower has long been replaced by Baiqisi, so there will be no mistakes.

After Cao Xing brought people to the post station, a man with an ordinary face and an indifferent face came out of the post station, looked at Cao Xing and nodded, without saying a word, he directly took them to the back to change clothes and horses.

Seeing his subordinates loosen their hair one by one and take off their original attire and put on a whole set of sheepish leather jackets, Cao Xing also grinned rarely.

It’s not just the horses and costumes that need to be changed, the weapons naturally can’t hold the previous standard horizontal knives, not to mention Cao Xing’s careful thinking, at least Ren Baiqisi is dedicated to this, and they will never appear Such a flaw.

Scimitars, maces, and even things like harpoons, no one dislikes anything at the moment, and quickly choose the weapons they are good at according to their own preferences. Speaking of which, these things are really the current equipment of the Turks. There is not as rich as Datang. Although most people use scimitars, there are actually quite a few people who use miscellaneous things brought from home.

Not long after, everyone tidied up, and all of them had disheveled hair and all kinds of strange ghost symbols were painted on their faces. This was drawn by Baiqisi, and it also explained that this was the god-inviting charm drawn by the Turkic shaman. I don't know how these people learned how to do it.

But at least from the outside, this group of people can't see what they used to be like before. Cao Xing and the person in charge of Baiqi Division checked again, looked at each other, nodded, turned around and got on the horse in silence.

At this time, the sky was already getting dark, so I rushed over and guessed that it was the time when the other party closed the door to eat, and the sky would also be dark by then, so it was a good time to work.

At this time, the old Confucius’s family didn’t feel that a catastrophe was imminent at all. A banquet was being held in the entire courtyard covering an area of ​​several hundred acres. A large group of people gathered in the large banquet hall. I don't know that Lord Yan is ready to accept people.

It was night, when the banquet was at its most lively. Suddenly, the people sitting at the door heard the shouts of killing coming from outside the hall, so they couldn't help but put down their glasses and listened.

But before he could figure out what happened, a servant covered in blood rushed into the hall, shouting loudly,

"Patriarch, run, the Turks are coming!"

The banquet hall suddenly became chaotic, and all the educated people who were originally high and high did not have half a bit of the attitude they emphasized that "every major event needs to be calm". They only wished that their parents would have more legs. Better run faster.

But they don't know who they are going to face. It is Qin Wang's army who can charge with Zhang Nuo in the face of ten times the enemy on the battlefield. They have seen such a large formation before. Chaos counts as wool.

The sound of the blade piercing into the bone was accompanied by screams, cries, and begging for mercy, and the whole courtyard completely became a Shura field.

Not long after, the entire courtyard fell silent. Cao Xing pulled out a booklet from his arms and began to examine the corpses one by one.

This is not a joke, don't laugh and think that the job is finished, but if a few remnants come out to make troubles, then let them not give credit to them, I'm afraid they will be killed.

Chapter 657

It has to be said that as a family that has been passed down for a long time, it really has a bit of confidence. At least Cao Xing found out that none of the top-ranked people on the roster were there.

It was obvious that he had escaped through a tunnel or a secret room.

However, Cao Xing didn't mean to be surprised at all. Instead, he took his time and walked directly towards the backyard. After walking straight to the study in the backyard, Cao Xing kicked a side shelf directly.

The shelf that was originally placed there was quietly removed, revealing a dimly lit secret room.

The sergeant who was following Cao Xing immediately gasped!

The scene in front of me was really too frightening. Slowly, a room was filled with randomly piled up gold, which shone with captivating light under the flickering candlelight.

Cao Xing kicked the guard next to him angrily, and stared at him fiercely, then he walked to the corner of the secret room carefully, without even looking at the gold on the ground, he leaned closer to the corner and walked cautiously Push the wall away.

There is another secret room behind the door, even the space is much larger than the place where the gold was placed before. I am afraid that if it were not for the detailed information given by Bai Qisi before, no one would have thought that there could be a secret room inside the secret room. , not to mention putting so much gold outside to attract attention.

Staying in this secret room were an old man, several young people, and several children. Seeing Cao Xing walking in with a knife covered in blood, all of them were pale.

After all, the old man has seen the world, sighed,

"The old man didn't expect His Majesty to be so cruel. It seems that the old man really did something wrong this time. He was blinded by money!"

A few young people and little dolls next to me cried, obviously they all knew what was coming.

Cao Xing obviously heard the old man's words, but he didn't mean to answer at all. He liked a saying of His Highness Qin Wang very much, that is, if you want to kill someone, you should kill him directly. People turned back and killed.

Cao Xing had seen this kind of thing on the battlefield before, so he never talked too much with people, and he didn't have any bullshit hobby of explaining his purpose to others, so he killed the whole secret room very cleanly. Afterwards, I checked it again with the pamphlet, and finally nodded.

Going outside, looking at the room full of gold, Cao Xing directly arranged for people,

"Call the master, take all this away, we are all Turkic people now, there is no reason to see the gold is still left, when the time comes, we will return part of it, it will all be counted as seized, our work is also a big deal It's a deal!"

Hearing Cao Xing's arrangement, the sergeant next to him was immediately delighted. Zhang Nuo's army has always had such a rule. Disturbances must be handed over, and then it will be returned and taxed. But there is one good thing, that is, after such a toss. It becomes clean money, and you can spend it however you want.

Originally, they thought they could only get some rewards this time, but they didn't expect such a reward!

Not long after, sergeants came in one after another as if they had been fished out of a pool of blood. Each of them was holding either a sack or a small box, and hurriedly put the gold into it one by one.

There are many people and strength, and it looks like a lot of gold, but in fact it didn't take long to install it.

Cao Xing went outside and blew a whistle hard, then walked outside quickly, got on his horse, and roared away with the people, leaving only a gradually burning house standing quietly in the dark night.

Not long after, a group of people rushed to the station, Cao Xing directly picked up two sacks filled with gold and threw them at the feet of the commander of Baiqisi.

"This was seized. You have also worked. You will be counted. Do you need someone to report to His Highness for you?"

The leader kicked the sack next to his feet, pulled the corner of his mouth slightly and it was a smile,

"No need, we worked our lives for His Majesty, we got money from you, all we have to do is explain to His Majesty, and you just need to talk about your own business with His Majesty!"

"Hurry up and change your clothes now. By the way, put some clothes on the corpses in the backyard. It is prepared for you. Then you will say that you intercepted and killed a small group of Turks in Wulipo!"

Cao Xing nodded, knowing that this was a follow-up lie.

After all, such a big thing happened here, even a Turkic cavalry had entered the pass, and their troops were logically not far away from here at this time, so as a scout troop, it was only natural to encounter this squad.

As for the failure to wipe out the other party, it can be explained that both sides are cavalry, or it can be said that they are just scouts who dare not chase after them. Anyway, there are reasons. In any case, they are all responsible for collecting intelligence.

As for what to do after the news is reported, that is not something that Cao Xingneng cares about.

He is just a rough guy, he just does some dirty work, how can the big boss arrange him to do it.

Everyone didn't wash up. After all, if they were still clean after the fight, it would be unreasonable.

Changing clothes, changing mounts, and carrying corpses were all done in one go. Cao Xing was not a jerk at all, and at this moment he knew the truth about the speed of soldiers, so he led his people away.

But at the post station, after Cao Xing left, the commander of Baiqisi, who had never announced his name, whistled softly, and dozens of silent men appeared in the side room.

"Choose your clothes and put them on. You should know the mission. Our current identity is Turkic people who wandered into the customs to make a fortune. This time, the mission is to go to the Turkic border to find out information. As long as this vote is completed, everyone will be relieved." , Those who should be promoted will be promoted, and those who want to change jobs can also change jobs!"

Dozens of men nodded silently, then buried their heads and began to pick out clothes from the side.

These were all replaced by Cao Xing's gang just now, one by one piled up together, the blood that was originally stained on the body was mixed together, making the blood-stained clothes even more unbearable at this time.

But these men didn't seem to notice, they skillfully selected the clothes that suit them and changed them on the spot, and the clothes they changed were also neatly put aside, these will be dealt with later.

Not long after, a group of men in the pass turned into Turkic demons like returning from hell, covered in blood, carrying the weapons that were still in the hands of Cao Xing and others, turned on their horses and took advantage of the night to quickly beat their horses towards the Turkic border. go.

People die all the time in this world, but few people know that on this night, there will be such a group of people who will completely kill a big family, and no one will know that all of this is just an arrangement.

Chapter 658

The day before the old Confucian family was sealed off by His Majesty, people were killed in the house and slaughtered, and it was the Turkic people who did it.

The news spread throughout Chang'an in an instant.

Although everyone thought it was just a joke when they heard the news, but as more and more news was collected, everyone had to believe it.

The local report explained in detail what kind of tragedy happened to the old Confucian family that night. The whole old Confucian family, old and young, did not leave any chickens or dogs behind, and the whole house was burned to pieces.

And Qin Qiong's department, who was ordered to return to Guanzhong from Pyongyang, also rushed to send the corpses of the members of the Turkic team that their scouts intercepted on the road.

The local official's Lao Zuo even bluntly stated that all the members of the old Kong family were killed by strange weapons, not the horizontal knives or other weapons commonly seen in the Tang Dynasty.

Well, with piles of evidence in front of them, everyone stopped talking in the hall. No matter how unbelievable it was, seeing the stinking corpse in front of them and the report sent by the local government, they Believe it or not.

At this time, Li Shimin's face was frosty, as if he was going to freeze to death in the hot weather. As a rare grand meeting, Li Shimin didn't mind letting people feel his peak acting skills at all.

Although all the things were arranged by him, Zhang Nuo and a few old cunts... but after all, it was just to wipe out the internal thieves, and there were other things to do.

Now it's just putting the blame on the Turks. If you want to get everyone to support the fight against the Turks, you have to work hard.

"My dear friends, I don't know if you have any other opinions on this matter!"

Li Shimin's voice was a bit hoarse, coupled with his slightly haggard and angry face, the courtiers who didn't know it thought that His Majesty was angry all night last night.

But in fact, the great actor Li Shimin took Zhang Nuo to play mahjong all night in the palace last night, and he also lost badly. A typical family loses and three wins. Zhang Nuo, Du Ruhui, and Changsun Wuji last night I almost laughed out loud.

At this time, Zhang Nuo didn't have to go to court and was still lying dead in his bedroom. As a loser, he had to come to court, even if the time was changed and he didn't have to come in the middle of the night, but after all he didn't sleep all night, it's no wonder his face was not haggard. .

As for the hoarse voice, hehe, when playing cards with Zhang Nuo, Zhang Nuo will unconsciously show no image of an egg, especially when after listening to the big cards and constantly touching unwanted cards, he would simply scold one of them. , Scolding all night, I can't even think about being hoarse.

However, this face just fits in with today's drama.

As soon as Li Shimin's question was raised, the court, where there were still many people whispering just now, suddenly became quiet.

Changsun Wuji is very energetic at this time, playing mahjong is like this, winning people is always more energetic, especially when the opponent will meet a good talent, when there is a back and forth, that kind of intellectual collision is attractive to such a smart person Not your average size.

The spiritual eldest grandson, as the left servant, must stand out at this time, after all, he is already the head of all officials in name at this time, right?

"Your Majesty, Turkic is so insane that he treats me as nothing, leading to the severance of the blood of the descendants of the saints. This matter cannot be done well. I suggest that we resolutely fight back against such wolf-minded and ambitious people like Turkic, and we must not weaken our Tang dynasty!"

Many of the usual little transparent things in the courtroom felt wrong, why didn't the eldest grandson see such a passionate person on weekdays, I feel so excited today.

In fact, Changsun Wuji is also suffering in his heart at this time and cannot tell. This morning Li Shimin took the excuse that Changsun Wuji won the most last night, and shifted the task of speaking from Du Ruhui to him. What can he do, Your Majesty It's obvious that if you lose too much, you want revenge. Could he still refute it?

Forget it, I will pay for the money I won last night, but it is really cool to think about it, the feeling of blocking the house, getting stuck in the house, and targeting the opponent is simply the best thing for a smart person like him. Liked the game too.

Li Shimin saw that Changsun Wuji lost his mind after saying such a bunch of passionate words, and even put a smile on the corner of his mouth, and immediately felt unhappy, mother, the auxiliary machine is dry wool, can you be a good fan?

Pretending not to care, he coughed twice and cleared his throat. After waking up Changsun Wuji, Li Shimin didn't need anyone else to speak, and said directly,

"The Turks have coveted my Great Tang for a long time. When I first ascended to the Great Treasure, the Turks raised 20 troops to attack the border, and finally they even attacked the city of Chang'an. I will always remember this shame in my heart!"

"Now, I didn't bother him, they are more and more unscrupulous, and dare to send people directly into the pass to slaughter the family and exterminate the whole family. This means that they don't take Datang seriously!"

"Think about it, everyone, if the Turkic thieves were able to slaughter the old Kong's family quietly today, will they be able to go to other places tomorrow to attack the families of all of you here? Will they be able to do so in a few days? Do you have to sneak into Chang'an City to trouble me?"
