Chapter 424: Longxi Li's robbery
Just when Li Jing's Eastern Route Army won a complete victory, Hou Junji from the west also led his team to Huaili, the old nest of the Li family in Longxi.
Among the Li clans in Longxi, they had just experienced two major battles, and they could be said to have suffered two defeats. Once, they were fired by Bai Snake in Meiren Mountain and all 30,000 people were burned to ashes. The second time was outside Huaili City yesterday, when Li Chengdao and Bai Snake joined forces inside and outside. The 30,000 Li clan army was wiped out and the remaining 1,000 remaining soldiers fled back.
The eldest elder of the Li family had long been slumped on the ground and cried bitterly. The clan leader was not here, and before leaving, he handed over the full power to himself. Now, he did not care about the opposition of the clan and mobilized 60,000 troops to fight at one time. He thought it was a victory for all directions, but who knew that it was a ruin of the Li family's 60,000 sons and ladies for nothing, and added a great enemy to the family - Prince Anlu.
One day, he calmed down the emotions of the clan and the aftermath of the deceased. The next day, the Great Elder summoned all the elders of the Li family to discuss the losses of the Li family and the consequences he had to bear in this incident.
But as soon as the meeting began, the butler of Li was rushing into the clan.
"Great Elder, it's not good!
The army, the army has entered Huaili City!"
What???
The elders of the Li family exclaimed and stood up. The war was over yesterday. It would be fine if they offended Prince Anlu Li Chengdao. After all, the Li family has a deep roots and has their own way to escape. Why did the army of revenge come one day after another?
"It's too much to deceive others. Li Chengdao's son is just trying to destroy my Li family without hesitation!
The visitor sounded the horn of the Li family war. Everyone in the Huaili Li family was soldiers, all of whom participated in the war, vowing to kill the enemy and save the incense of the Li family." The elder said angrily.
The other elders were still denying the Great Elder, but now at the critical moment of life and death, they agreed that the Great Elder would take power, and they all turned around and prepared to go into battle.
Speaking of which, the ancestor of the Li clan of Longxi was a general, and the flying general Li Guang also gave birth to the horn of the battle was passed down by Li Guang at that time. It is said that it was seized from the Khan of the Huns. It was a symbol of honor that was later passed down from generation to generation and has been written into the clan rules.
When Li was in a great disaster, the horn was blown away by the whole nation to join the war.
When the sound of horns in the city sounded, the Li clans, who were still immersed in grief, listened one after another, and many young people didn't know what the sound was.
Only the elderly men stood up and shouted: "Li's horn, the horn sounded, and the whole people were soldiers. The Li family was in great disaster. Hurry up, wear armor and swords, go out to meet the enemy."
When Hou Junji, who had been coming all the way, rushed to Huaili City, there was no guard at the door, and there were funeral supplies on the top of the city. It was obvious that the people of the Li family were still busy holding funerals for the tribe members who died yesterday.
With a long sword, Hou Junji shouted: "Brothers, follow me to the Longxi tribe and avenge the dead old brothers."
He galloped all the way into the city, and many pedestrians walking in the city were so shocked that they were scared. Where did the army from come from dare to enter Huaili City of the Li family in Longxi?
No one stopped him, Hou Junji was like entering a state of no one, and he killed him directly outside the Li family mansion.
At this time, I heard a long and rapid sound of horns. Then I saw the Li family gate open and a group of elders wearing clothes came out. The largest of these people was the eldest elder who was 60 years old, and the youngest elder who was also 40 years old.
Of course, there are a large group of Li family guards behind him.
"Who is coming? How dare you lead troops into my Li family's ancestral land?" said the great elder majestic.
Hou Junji smiled coldly: "Hou Junji, the army of the Tang Dynasty! So what about the Li family's ancestral land? Even if it is a dragon pond and a tiger's den today, I will kill a river of blood!"
What???
"Hou Junji? My Li family has no grudge against you, so why can't we get along with us? Is it for the sake of Prince Anlu? This is a misunderstanding. The Li family protects Prince Anlu, but it is not that you will come and strangle the troops!" The elder asked in confusion.
"snort!
Let you be a clear understanding. The Li family in Longxi actually joined the Cui family in Qinghe and sent 10,000 troops to massacre our retired old army in the north. The evidence for this matter is conclusive. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty criticized that the Tang army headquarters wanted to seek justice for the old army brothers.
The words are finished, die!"
"What?" The elder seemed to have not reacted for a while.
But Hou Junji ignored it. With a command, 20,000 people behind him began to charge forward. More than two thousand guards immediately rushed out of the Li mansion, firmly protecting the elders of the Li family.
But how could this little person stop Hou Junji in anger?
Hou Junji, who had red eyes, killed him fiercely and rushed to the front of Elder Li. If the terrain was not wide enough, the two thousand guards of Li would not be enough for Hou Junji to kill him in one stick of incense.
When the great elder came to his senses, Hou Junji had already arrived.
"General Hou! Slow down!
Do you really want to stay with me, Li, and never stop?
Do you want to die together today?" the Great Elder said sternly.
Hou Junji sneered, "Yes, I just stay alive! As for the death together? You old guys are not worthy!"
"Do you really think the 20,000 people you brought can massacre Li's family?
The Li family is also a family immediately. Everyone participates in the war in critical moments. If you refuse to let go, all your 20,000 troops will stay here today.
If you don’t believe it, you can look back and you are surrounded.”
He stopped fighting and looked back as he spoke. Sure enough, the Li mansion was surrounded by people holding various weapons, and it seemed that they could do a few skills.
"General Hou must have had some misunderstandings here. The Li clan members have always been in Anlongxi. Although they have practiced martial arts, they have never harmed anyone, let alone slaughtering the old army of the Tang Dynasty. Li clan dare not do this." The elder persuaded him that if he could not fight, he would not fight. Li clan had already died 60,000 elite soldiers. The remaining 30,000 young and strong men were the last breath of vitality with tens of thousands of people.
Hou Junji frowned, but unexpectedly, he was careless and rushed into the enemy's lair and was surrounded. Only a family like the Li family that passed on their families through martial arts could do it.
"Hmph! Li's good method.
Don't ask me any misunderstandings. Your Li clan leader brought 5,000 troops to the Lu clan alliance in Fanyang. At this time, our Tang army knew about it, but he did not expect that he would join forces with the 5,000 Cui clan members of the Qinghe clan to slaughter the Tang Dynasty escort agency. Although this line was created by Bai Fan, the people used were retired veterans recommended by us generals, and they wanted to find a place for the old brothers to settle down and retire.
But I didn’t expect that in less than three years, more than 10,000 were slaughtered brutally. Do you think your Li family in Longxi should die?"
What???
"Hou Jun Jixiu is going to slander people. How could our Li family leader do this?" someone shouted.
Hou Junji threw out the volume of the imperial edict and said furiously: "Your Majesty's imperial edict is here. Your hundred dead men were arrested on the spot and confessed. You will definitely not escape this crime. I will not give me an explanation today. Even if the jade and stone are burned, I, Hou Junji, will kill you happily."
The elder of Li clan was very clear about the situation and knew that the imperial edict could not be adulterated. It was very likely that this was true. He pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know about this matter. Since it was the crime committed by my Li clan leader, I, Li clan, will not shelter the murderer. General Hou, don't worry, Li clan must give an explanation to the innocent, and let us recall the clan leader and ask everything.
Now there are people here who are unaware of it. What is the point of General Hou even if he slaughtered? Everyone is innocent, and the real murderer is not here."
Hou Junji also knew that it might not be possible today, and there were many enemies!
Just as he wanted to nod and agree, a sound of horse hooves came from the city, followed by a shout: "Kill! Kill all the thieves in the Li family in Longxi, rush, General Hou has already entered his nest!"
...
When Hou Junji heard this voice, he knew that Li Chengdao must have been chasing him with 10,000 subordinates. Why did he come here at this time? And he saw that he was storming into the city like this? This young man, there are so many people, and you only have 30,000 more. Wouldn’t you die? Did you deliberately cheat me, Lao Hou?
"What?
There is an ambush? Hou Junji, you are so cruel!
How dare you play with the inside and outside?" The eldest elder of Li almost vomited blood, covered his chest, pointed at Hou Junji and cursed. Unexpectedly, he was plotted by this famous general of the Tang Dynasty. It seems that the Li family in Longxi is really over today.
