Chapter 395: The Rise of the Storm (thirty-seven)(1/2)
---------..
A sharp shout resounded throughout the world.
Immediately, it attracted two people on the battlefield. Everyone looked at the top of the city in surprise. When they saw what happened on the top of the city, everyone was stunned.
Dou Jiande, who was wearing a dark purple five-claw green dragon robe, was seen tilting his head to one side, while a tall man was holding his neck with his right hand.
The next moment, the man grinned, revealing his white teeth, and smiled sinisterly, and then Dou Jiande's body was thrown down from the ten-foot-high Le Shou City Wall.
He had killed people and still treated their bodies like this, which shows that there was a huge hatred between the two.
"Isn't that Yu Wenhuaji?"
When Li Shimin saw the man on the city wall, he couldn't help but be startled. He remembered that the two seemed to be in an alliance, so where did this come from?
"Ha ha…"
Yu Wenhuaji, who had killed Dou Jiande, stood on the city wall and laughed arrogantly. He glanced in Li Shimin's direction, jumped up, tapped his feet, and the man disappeared on the city wall.
"That guy killed Your Majesty, don't let him go!"
"Archers shoot him down!"
"Come on and avenge Your Majesty!"
It took several seconds for the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom to react, and each one roared to avenge Dou Jiande, but by this time Yu Wenhuaji's figure had disappeared.
"The entire army moves closer to the center, pay attention to the enemy's movements, and retreat slowly."
The unexpected situation confused everyone. After a short period of thinking, Li Shimin decisively ordered the withdrawal of troops.
Some people may think that the opponent's emperor is dead at this time. Isn't that the best time to attack?
Of course, this is true, but it depends on whether the opponent can organize an effective attack. The enemy leader is dead and the group is leaderless. If there is no one to lead it, it will be easy to break through. If someone raises his arms at this time, it will be caused by the death of Dou Jiande.
If the grief is vented on Li Tang, then the gain outweighs the loss.
At least Li Shimin felt that Yuchi Jingde could do this, so retreating now was the wisest choice.
"The army immediately assembled and assembled four small troops. Each team has 500 cavalry, 500 sword and shield soldiers, 500 spearmen, and 500 archers. Search from four directions and be sure to capture the murderer of Your Majesty.
"
When Yuchi Jingde saw that Li Shimin had withdrawn his troops, he also gathered the army and did not pursue Li Tang's army.
"The generals of all the armies will enter the city with me and discuss with the ministers the matter of appointing His Majesty's heir to the throne."
Yuchi Jingde arranged all the troops and hurried toward the city with some important leaders. However, after he entered the city, he learned that Dou Jiande's family had been killed.
In response to this, all civil and military officials looked at each other in shock.
"Now that His Majesty has been killed and there is no one to ascend the throne, what do you think, ministers?"
A civil servant stood up. He was one of the ministers Dou Jiande relied on more during his time. Liu Tiao was appointed as Zuocheng of the Xia Kingdom.
"I wonder what Liu Zuocheng has to say? We all look forward to Sir Liu's lead!"
"That's right, that's right. If Master Liu has any suggestions, tell me quickly."
Everyone urged Liu Tiao to express his thoughts.
"In this case, Liu is not talented. Let me tell you my opinion." Liu adjusted his official uniform, bowed to the top of the empty hall, and then said with a serious face: "His Majesty passed away without any heirs."
Legacy. Therefore, there are only two paths for us to choose from now."
"I waited to listen and listen!"
"First, as the emperor, when both morality and justice. Therefore, whoever feels that he is full of morality, you can lead me to wait.
The meaning in Liu Tune is to choose one person from everyone, ascend the throne as emperor.
As soon as this says, everyone is shocked!
"Master Liu's big rebellion, not the son of people!"
At the moment, there are some pedantic Confucianists who scold them at Liujia, and even those who have to roll up their sleeves and Liu Tune.
"The adults are quiet, and listen to me." Liu Tune waved to stop everyone. Perhaps because of his prestige, everyone calmed down. Li Tangjun is outside, if you do not decide earlier, do you think I can wait for my life? "
Saying a word and waiting for everyone to be speechless, few people were willing to be loyal to Dou Jiande to give up their lives, and it was enough to do it.
Therefore, when it comes to their own safety, no one continues to refute.
"Lord Liu, then I don't know what the second choice is?"
Seeing some cold fields, Cui Junsu, who stood out and asked Liu Tuanxian to mention another choice before.
Many civilian ministers present, of course, did not say that there were no ideas, but they did not dare to say it. If it was besieged by someone, this position was not obtained, and it would be lost because of this.
"The second choice is that we choose a power to vote!"
When saying this, Liu's eyes flashed. The reason why he said two options was actually the only one. Of course, everyone did not know his thoughts.
I kept talking, and Wei Chijingde, who stared at the crowd, nodded thoughtfully.
"this…"
Everyone is a bit embarrassed, and there is no problem in voting other forces, but what do you do now? Will the forces rely on let yourself stay in today's position, and it does not rule out the other party to kill the donkey.
Therefore, everyone was silent again.
"The adults, the time is urgent, and the strong enemy is outside. If we do not take a decision earlier, by the time of Li Tang, we will break the city wall, then everything will be false."
Liu Shi saw that everyone was hesitant and compressed them psychologically.
"The adults, there is a proposal, I wonder if I can listen to something?"
At the time of silence, a slightly rude voice sounded unlike the sound of the literati. Usually Wenchen discussed that the generals would consciously do not speak. This sound is obviously a general. Look at that direction.
"It turned out to be General Wei Chi. I don't know what Gao Chi is, say it as much as possible."
"General Wei Chi Gao Cai, I waited for his ears to listen."
However, after seeing the person who spoke, the ministers took a loud patrol.
Nowadays, they have the army of more than 100,000 in Xia Guo. To solve them, they are not easy to get back.
"Master Liu's words depend on a power, and some think that this is feasible." Wei Chi Jingde first said that he agreed with Liu Tuan, and then then said: "Several major power in the world, thinking that there is a power suitable for us . ""
"Oh, I will wait for Jing Chi Chi to see General Wei Chi!"
"I don't know who deserves what Captain General Chi said."
Yuchi Jingde twirled his beard and chuckled, and his plain voice sounded like thunder in the hall. "This power is far away in the sky, but close in front of you!"
All the ministers were stunned, and then one of the more responsive ministers whispered: "Could it be Li Tang?"
"Whoa!"
Everyone glanced at Yuchi Jingde. They wanted to know whether what the minister said was true, and then received a confirmation reaction from Yuchi Jingde.
"this…"
Some ministers were astonished. They had just fought a fight earlier, and now they were going to take refuge with others. It felt strange no matter how they thought about it.
Liu Tiao's eyes on one side also lit up. His intelligent eyes swept over Yuchi Jingde's body. If no one was present, he would have wanted to rush forward and give him a loud kiss.
This proposal really suited his liking.
"Your Majesty is a wise master, but under the instigation of Li Mi, he started an unprovoked war with Li Tang, and ended up being harmed by the Yuwen family in the same alliance. Fundamentally speaking, we have no deep grudge against Li Tang."
All the ministers who said this nodded in agreement.
"Li Tang selected talents regardless of their origins and appointed them on their merits. He also issued reform policies, all in the spirit of serving the people. Isn't this the ambition of your lords?"
Serving the people of the world was an idea that once existed in everyone's mind. However, with the passage of time, some ideas have been slowly assimilated or changed. Now that Yuchi Jingde is mentioned, everyone has a feeling of awakening.
!
"All of you are talented, but when you get to Li Tang, are you afraid that you won't be able to keep your status?"
This sentence sounded to the ears, and some ministers nodded with satisfaction.
"In that case, let's discuss it and send someone to discuss it with Li Tang."
There are ministers who act resolutely and start preparations immediately.
"My lord, please wait a moment." Yuchi Jingde called to the minister, who was stunned. Wasn't it your suggestion? Are you going to regret it now?
"Ministers, please listen to what General X has to say."
"General Yuchi, tell me!"
All the ministers said respectfully that Yuchi Jingde had hundreds of thousands of Xia troops in his hands, and if he surrendered to Li Tang, he would definitely be put into good use by the other party. We should build a good relationship first.
"Although we rely on Li Tang, it can't be that simple." Yuchi Jingde stretched out two fingers and said with a serious face: "If we rely on Li Tang, then Li Tang must fulfill two conditions.
"
"Oh? I wonder what the conditions are?"
All the adults looked curious. Today, Yuchi Jingde seemed to be extremely powerful, clear-minded and well-organized. He didn't look like a military general at all.
"First, Li Tang wants to avenge His Majesty and remove Yu Wenhuaji who killed Your Majesty and His Majesty's family. Then we can truly surrender to Li Tang. If the other party disagrees or deliberately delays, then we can leave on our own.
