Chapter 421 Forced to quit, rush to do it, there is no tomorrow for the Cui family
"What? The evidence is conclusive. Just outside Huaili City, the bloodstains on the battlefield are not dry. Does General Hou dare not?" Li Chengdao said dissatisfied.
Hou Junji explained: "The prince misunderstood. It is really extraordinary for the Li family in Longxi. They are one of the five surnames and seven families, the most top wealthy family in the Tang Dynasty. Without His Majesty's approval, the last general dared not take action.
Your Majesty sent me here this time to deal with the matter of the failure of the Gaochang business road to the west.
Although we all know that it was made by Li, Longxi, but Your Majesty only asked me to come and mediate. If you encounter obstacles, you can only open the way. It can be seen that Your Majesty is also afraid of Li, Longxi.
Although it was a fact that the prince was attacked and I knew that they did it, the other party had no banner, and we did not have any prisoners, so the other party could not admit it.
Could the court be able to move a large army to slaughter Huaili? Those are hundreds of thousands of people!
Besides, the Li family tree in Longxi is deep, and there are children of the Li family in Longxi all over the country. If we kill each other's nest, these people will definitely cause trouble everywhere. The situation at that time is probably not something you and I can predict.
So in the end, we wouldn't dare to do it without His Majesty's nod."
After listening patiently, Li Chengdao believed in his heart that what Hou Junji said was reasonable, but he was still very angry. He almost told him that he had to swallow his anger now?
The court is really not as happy as his master Bai Fan. At that time, Wang Junkuo and Zhao Deyan killed him as soon as they say they want to kill him. Now they dare to fight alone in the family and threaten to remove the Li family from Longxi from now on. Doesn’t the master know so many concerns? It’s impossible, there must be some way to do it once and for all.
Hou Junji persuaded Li Chengdao, thinking that this trip was a waste of time. His Majesty wanted to take charge of everything himself, but he was afraid that Prince Anlu was young and powerless. Now it seems that the young man is even more powerful than his old guys, and he directly crippled the Li family in Longxi.
A group of 30,000 troops joined forces and drove towards the northern Liangzhou City. Li Chengdao still did not give up and sent someone to send a message to Chang'an. No matter what, the Longxi Li family surrounded and killed him must not be given up.
A day later, the imperial court's courier arrived, and Hou Junji was still wondering why he had a reply message just after sending someone out? Is it faster than Feiying sending a message?
After seeing the letter from the court, he was completely uneasy. He slapped the table and shouted: "Come here, come and gather the generals. I am going to pacify the Li family in Longxi to avenge the brothers."
Li Chengdao was puzzled. Why did Hou Junji not do anything before and was so timid and afraid of things? Why is he so domineering now? It seems that the Li family in Longxi has a grudge against him to kill his father?
After inquiring, I found out that it was the escort agency that broke out. Li Er sent Li Jing to the east to deal with Cui's family and sent someone to deliver a letter to Hou Junji who was traveling west, asking him to lead troops to find the Li family in Longxi.
This time, the Northern Escort Agency was slaughtered, and many old brothers sent by Hou Junji were killed or injured. Who could tolerate this? Although Hou Junji was greedy for money, he was the most protective of his shortcomings. The hundreds of brothers sent by him were almost slaughtered. Is it still the troops sent by the Li clan of Longxi? Can you do it without taking revenge?
The emperor happened to write a letter, allowing himself to lead his troops to seek justice for the retired veterans of the Tang Dynasty. With the holy order, how can I kill enough money if I don’t go to Li’s lair this time?
Before Li Chengdao could clean up his more than 10,000 people, Hou Junji and his 20,000 people rushed towards Huaili in the south.
Not to mention the outcome of the Li family in Longxi at this time, let’s talk about the eastern army, Li Jing, with his group of top generals of the Tang Dynasty and 23,000 highly combat-capable personal guards, rushed straight to the Cui family’s nest in Qinghe with great momentum.
In the Fanyang Lu clan, Cui Junchuo had already fainted from crying. If it weren't for the recurrence of the old disease, he could not travel far, at this time, and he had already returned to his family. Now he could not leave, so he could only cry while leaving him to cure his illness.
The head of the Li clan of Longxi was also quite depressed. There was no bad news from Longxi in his family, but the escort agency did not let him go. The children of the Li clan of Longxi who lived in various trajectories in the north were killed 80% of the other officials. Needless to think that just like the Cui clan of Qinghe, they were all Green Forest killers.
The Lu family of Fanyang didn't say much when they saw this situation. Although the Lu family of Fanyang did not take action this time, the escort agency's hornet nest was stabbed together by three families. It was hard to say that they would come to the door one day, so they could only defend strictly, try to shrink their power, and transfer their children who were alone outside.
It was from this period that the battle between the three families to destroy Bai began to fall into a disadvantage.
"Report, the head of the family, it's not good. The scout came to report. The court sent 20,000 troops to Cui, Qinghe. It seems that that would not be a good thing."
"What? What's going on? Who's the lead?" Lu Chengguang exclaimed.
"Looking at that banner, the leader is Li Jing of Wei, but this army and horse flag is very diverse. The scout said that every general has a banner, just like all the generals of the Tang Dynasty have been dispatched, but this matter is obviously absurd, and his subordinates have already scolded him."
"Well, send a scout to inquire again.
The person who comes, please invite the head of the Cui family and the head of the Li family to come."
I heard that the army went to Qinghe, how could Cui Junchuo sit still? He dragged his sick body and insisted on leaving. As the head of the family, he would die on the way home even if he died.
The head of the Li family in Longxi looked at Cui Junchuo's old-fashioned back, and a trace of sadness flashed in his heart. Perhaps the end of this battle to destroy Bai is unpredictable, why did he have a bad premonition in his heart?
The Cui clan in Qinghe is now the leader of the tribe is not here. The person in charge is Cui Junchuo's younger brother Cui Junsu. It turns out that Cui Junsu served in the court, but Bai Fan once robbed half of the business by the Cui family by economic wars, so his reputation plummeted. Cui Junsu was also excluded from the court and finally returned home to assist his brother in handling matters.
Although the two have not had a good agreement over the years, fortunately, Cui Junchuo has gradually learned to endure. Except for dealing with Bai Fan, the Cui family is still very united at other times.
Outside Qinghe City, Cui Junsu led 20,000 family guards to stop the army that was about to enter the city.
"Li Jing, why did you lead the army to the Cui family in Qinghe? Could it be that you want to fight with us?"
Before Li Jing could answer, the black-faced Yuchi Gong was already driving his horse out with his two whips.
"Old man died, kill me a hundred old brothers, I want you to pay your blood debts and blood!
"Jingde is back!" Li Jing shouted.
Cui Junsu was also confused. He didn't say a word and rushed directly? Do the Cui family have a grudge against Yuchi Gong? Kill your hundred brothers? What's going on?
"Protect the elder, shoot the crossbowman." The escort of Cui shouted.
Yuchi Gong was forcibly forced back by more than a thousand crossbowmen, and he turned around and rushed back unwillingly.
Li Jing drove forward and shouted, "Where is the head of Cui family Cui Junchuo? He ordered Cui family 5,000 troops to slaughter more than 10,000 retired veterans from the Tang Dynasty in the north. I came to seek justice for the innocent veterans who suffered in the Tang Dynasty under the order of Your Majesty."
Seeing Li Jing so sternly, Cui Junsu was a little confused. He slaughtered 10,000 retired veterans in the Tang Dynasty? Isn’t this a grudge against the entire military? My brother wouldn’t be so confused!
"Duke of Wei, my brother is not at home at the moment. I have sent someone to invite him. As for the Cui family's slaughter of veterans in the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible. Please wait a moment. Brother will rush back tomorrow. We will investigate clearly and will definitely give the court an explanation. What do you think?" Cui Junsu said loudly.
"Tomorrow? I'm afraid there will be no tomorrow for Cui. The witness has been brought by himself!" Li Jing waved his hand and was pushed out from behind by a hundred people capturing the death row prisoners. This was sent by Zhang Liang, a man from Luoyang on the way.
