Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

In an instant, Zhang Taixin gave up the idea of ​​causing trouble for the man who was muttering behind him, and roared directly at the soldiers behind him. All the soldiers listened to the order and quickly followed the general into the city to rescue him.

After saying that, he raised the long whip in his hand and hit his beloved horse's butt hard under his crotch.

The war horse was hurt by the whipping, and after roaring a few times in dissatisfaction, it quickly rushed forward.

Just when Chu Mo thought he had successfully deceived the other party and that he and his party could leave the city calmly, a large group of people suddenly appeared on the street in the distance.

The person who came was none other than Qi Wang, a member of the Five Surnames headed by Cui Yingying.

Seeing this huge team, Chu Mo's face was as gloomy as ink.

Damn woman, she won't come sooner or later, but she has to wait until her plan is successful.

If he had to wait a moment and a half longer, he could just let the reinforcements enter the city, and his whereabouts would not be exposed.

When the time comes, we can take advantage of the chaos and take everyone out of the city calmly.

In such a chaotic situation, it is absolutely impossible for the other party to react in a short period of time and lead an army to pursue them.

But now, the appearance of Cui Yingying has obviously broken his plan. If the two parties come into contact, a conflict will definitely break out as soon as possible.

As long as the fighting here continues, it will definitely attract the attention of reinforcements from all parties.

By then, it would be obviously impossible for him to leave the city in troubled waters.

Glancing angrily at Cui Yingying in the distance, Chu Mo directly ordered Chu Ruowan and Lin Wan:

"The plan failed, and we are preparing to implement the second plan. Lin Wan took the wounded and escorted Empress Changsun and Li Chengqian out of the city first, rushing to the predetermined location to meet up with everyone from Duke Wei's mansion."

"Ruowan and I will lead the troops to break up the rear and see if we can take advantage of the chaos to capture Zhang Taixin's reinforcements. We will join you as soon as possible."

After hearing Chu Mo's order, the two women didn't hesitate at all, got on their horses, and started preparing with their respective arrangements according to the plan.

Soon, Zhang Taixin's reinforcements met Cui Yingying's five surnames and Qiwang people.

There was no tense situation as Chu Mo imagined, nor was there a fight to the death between the two parties as soon as they met.

What surprised him was that the moment Zhang Taixin saw Cui Yingying, he immediately licked his face, rode forward flatteringly, came to Cui Yingying, then reined in the reins and walked towards Cui Yingying respectfully. Yili said:

"Master Cui, are you alright? I wonder what the situation is like in the city now? Do you want to take your family to take refuge outside the city?"

When Cui Yingying saw the large reinforcements suddenly appearing at Mingde's gate, she was originally prepared for a battle.

But when he saw that the general in front of him did not regard himself as part of the rebel army at all, and even thought of coming up to show his courtesy, a hint of ridicule suddenly appeared on his lips.

She looked at the other person up and down, and she felt that the person in front of her looked familiar.

"I don't know what to call this general? But does he have any connection with my Cui family?"

Upon hearing Cui Yingying's inquiry, Zhang Taixin was not annoyed at all because the other party did not know his identity. Instead, he said more attentively:

"Young general Zhang Taixin previously asked to marry a young lady from the side house of the Cui family. Unfortunately, he failed to do so. It is a real regret in life."

"oh...."

Cui Yingying looked like she suddenly realized something, then she rolled her eyes, looked at the other person again and said:

"Then are you getting married now? If you can help me escort the tribe out of the city this time, then the head of the family may reconsider this matter of getting married."

Hearing that Cui Yingying was willing to marry the daughter of the Cui family, Zhang Taixin suddenly turned red with joy:

"Master Cui, the young general had a wife and two concubines before. If the daughter of the Cui family is willing to marry, then when this matter is over, I will divorce them when I return and marry the noble daughter of the house again."

Hearing what Zhang Taixin said, Cui Yingying's eyes were unabashedly filled with contempt and disgust.

But in the end he nodded and said:

"In that case, fine, I will personally investigate the matter after it is over."

After receiving the promise from the head of the Cui family, Zhang Taixin was so happy that he almost danced.

You know, when I had just qualified as the guard of Mingde Gate, I wanted to use my status as a new noble in the army to come to ask for a wife from a distant concubine of the Cui family.

It's just that the Cui family didn't look down on him as a martial artist at all, and they kicked him out without even looking at the Geng Tie and the gift list.

In desperation, he had no choice but to find another place and marry an official's legitimate daughter who had a similar status to himself.

For this reason, he was still sad and disappointed for a long time.

Lamenting his bad luck, he was unable to marry the daughter of the Cui family.

But now, the opportunity is right in front of me, and I have grasped it well.

This made him sigh again.

Could it be that God was aware of his desire to marry and gave him such a golden match, so that he could be lucky enough to show off in front of the head of the Cui family.

After sighing for a while, Zhang Taixin immediately put aside the task of entering the palace to rescue the driver and annihilating the rebels.

He directly ordered his soldiers to be divided into two teams. One team was led by himself and followed Cui Yingying personally to clear the way out of the city.

The other team, led by his lieutenant, followed behind the team, and together with the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes Alliance Army, they escorted their clansmen out of the city.

After arranging the task, Zhang Taixin happily followed Cui Yingying, hoping to please him and get the chance to marry the daughter of the Cui family.

However, before he could be happy for too long, he heard a report from the scout behind him, saying that a miscellaneous army had appeared in the rear and was quickly approaching the team here.

The other party was coming menacingly, and it was obvious that the person who came was evil.

Zhang Taixin, who was originally thinking about how to perform well in front of Cui Yingying, heard the scout's report. Without saying a word, he drew his sword and wanted to stand up and fight.

Cui Yingying, who also heard the report, saw Zhang Taixin acting like this. The corners of her eyes twitched twice and she hurriedly stopped the other party.

Just kidding, there are only two groups of rebels in the city: himself and Chu Mo.

Chu Mo's piece of shit must have abandoned him and run away long ago.

Those who caught up must not be rebels, but Li Shimin's army.

If Zhang Taixin, an idiot, was allowed to turn around and fight, and the other party knew the true identity of his party through such contact, then would Yan have a chance to survive?

Thinking of this, Cui Yingying stopped Zhang Taixin who was eager to show off and said:

"General Zhang, the bandit army is powerful. Don't put yourself in danger. General, why don't you send a team of troops to stay behind? How about you follow my master and leave the city together?"

"My people with the fifth surname and Qiwang still need more protection from the general on this journey. I don't want you to make any mistakes, general."

When Zhang Taixin heard that the head of the Cui family actually cared about him, he was so happy that he couldn't find the north. He immediately nodded like a woodpecker and directly ordered the deputy general behind him to stay behind to face the enemy. He continued to follow Cui Yingying.
