Chapter 454: The Way of Survival
Chapter 454: Ways to Survive
But it is said that Han Sui was talking to Gai Jun at the top of the city. When he suddenly heard that the other party had learned about Lu Shui's secret, he was so frightened and overworked that he fainted directly on Chang'an City, causing tens of thousands of Heshuo soldiers outside the city to burst into laughter.
Gai Junhao teased him a lot. On the other hand, the coalition forces fell into a state of panic. They were in a state of panic, and countless soldiers had strange thoughts in their minds at the same time.
Cheng Gongying's reaction was not unpleasant. Li Xiangru led Han Sui away, while he led hundreds of troops to patrol around the city.
In a short period of time, Cheng Gongying suppressed three rebellions in succession. Among them, the southeast gate of Chang'an was the most dangerous. At that time, the city's moat bridge was already in the air, and the army was already lined up beside the moat, ready, just waiting for the city moat bridge to fall.
They were about to break into Chang'an in one fell swoop. Cheng Gongying arrived at the critical moment. Without saying a word, he led his elite soldiers and massacred hundreds of rebels with extremely bloody methods. He threw their corpses under the city and shot away Heshuo's army with random arrows.
Shocking many people with ulterior motives.
Cheng Gongying temporarily stabilized the situation, but he did not relax at all. Instead, he became even more tense, so that he became suspicious. He looked at everyone like a rebel. He made several preemptive strikes and killed several generals. He was not able to make accurate judgments.
It's not accurate, maybe there are people who were wrongfully killed, but he had no choice but to do this in order to save Chang'an.
In fact, Cheng Gongying knew very well that his own situation was now over. Even if he slaughtered half of the soldiers in Chang'an, he could not stop the soldiers from changing their minds. What he was doing now was just a futile struggle. It might not take long before he would be attacked.
The backlash left him lying dead on top of the city. His only hope now was that Han Sui would wake up soon before he was killed.
Gai Jun originally thought that Han Sui had fainted and Chang'an would be destroyed today. Unexpectedly, Cheng Gongying suddenly stood up and ruined his good deeds. Even though he hated him deeply, he had to praise him for his loyalty and bravery.
Falling ill and separated from the soldiers, in such a desperate situation, he is still able to turn the tide, and his strategy, courage, and courage are fully demonstrated." At this point, Gai Jun shook his head regretfully and said that such a talent cannot be used alone. It's a pity, it's a pity...
…”
Cheng Gongying was only thirty years old, and he was so handsome that he could be called a rare talent in Xizhou. Jia Xu admired this Tongzhou native very much, saying that although Cheng Jun was a rare talent, it was a pity that he was entrusted to someone other than a human being.
.”
When Gai Jun heard this, he was very angry and said that Han Sui, an old thief, how virtuous and capable, could he share the talents of Xizhou with Gu." Gai Jun's words were somewhat self-proclaimed. In the hearts of the people of Xizhou, Gai Jun could only win three points.
And Han Sui got seven of them. This is not to say that Gai Jun was far inferior to Han Sui. Gai Jun's center of power was in Heshuo, and most of his followers were from the north. Liangzhou scholars either served Dong Zhuo's court, or they relied on Han Sui nearby.
, there is absolutely no need to go all the way to Jinyang to join Gai Jun.
Xun Yu said that if the general can kill Han Sui at this point, Xiliang will definitely surrender in the hope of the wind, and the decision will be made after a message."
Gai Jun nodded. Now that the old thief Han Sui is dead, who else in Xizhou dares to compete with him? Then he thought of Lu Shuihu, and his face suddenly darkened.
"Juqu Yuan'an, Luo Hou... Since you don't miss our feelings for nearly twenty years, how can I take care of our friendship? Then, Juqu Yuan'an, are you sure you really go against me, what kind of sacrifice will you make?"
The price? Don't blame me for being cruel, because this is your choice." Gai Jun's eyes were dark and bottomless. He had already made up his mind to kill Lu Shuihu to death.
Just like how to breed and slaughter Gehu, they completely disappeared from the world. Anyway, white-skinned and dark-eyed heterogeneous barbarians are not good. He vaguely remembered that among the five barbarians, the white slaves were the most ferocious. Since I have come to this era, I will take my place.
Be cruel to you.
Although Gai Jun stood under the city, it was a kind of encouragement to the Korean army's disloyalty. However, Cheng Gongying was tightly guarded and there might be no chance to take advantage of it. Gai Jun was not willing to stay under the city for a long time and wasted, so Gai Yin, Guan Yu and others were left behind.
He led the army, and he retreated to the rear.
More than half of the coalition camp was destroyed by fire. What was rare was that Han Sui's headquarters was not affected, which was a restaurant several feet high and luxuriously decorated. Gai Jun was very satisfied with this place and wanted to rest here temporarily. This is terrible
The civil and military personnel around him were frightened, and they scrambled to dissuade him. Although the fire in the camp was now under control, it did not mean that there was no danger. Could the fire suddenly spread and burn here? What if Gai Jun was blocked in the building?
, who can afford such consequences?
Gai Jun secretly scolded the people around for making such a fuss. Are the thousands of people around him just decorations? Or do they have no eyes, so they can't notice the fire? He immediately ignored everyone, got off his horse, and walked into the building.
Gai Jun didn't stay too long on the first floor. When he went up to the second floor, he met his wife's brother Cai Gui and Du Xi and Zhao Yan from Yingchuan. The three of them hurriedly saluted. Gai Jun raised his hand slightly to express his displeasure and looked inward.
As he walked, he asked, "Can Han Sui leave any important information?" Without skipping a word.
Cai Gui replied calmly and said that the three of us had just checked it carefully, and there wasn't much useful."
Gai Jun nodded and sighed at Han Sui's caution. After such a disastrous defeat, he could still avoid chaos. There are only a few people in the world who can control this beast. Thinking of this, Gai Jun couldn't help but feel proud. Obviously, he is one of the few.
one.
Gai Jun entered the secret room where Han Sui lived and looked around. Du Xi and Zhao Yan cautiously stayed outside the door. Only Cai Gui followed in because of his special status.
Gai Jun turned around after a while, smiled and said to Cai Gui, "How happy are you that Ziyu will be able to see his father soon?"
"How can we not be happy to meet again after being apart for many years?" Cai Gui said, "My children are unfilial and stay outside, leaving my father alone in the wolf's den. Now I wish I could put on a pair of wings and fly into Chang'an, to fly to my father."
.”
Gai Jun said "Yeah". Cai Gui hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't help but feel worried in his heart, and asked brother-in-law, do you think Han Sui will suddenly become crazy and kill his father to vent his personal anger?"
"How dare he?" Gai Jun raised his eyebrows, murderous aura boiling around him.
Cai Gui couldn't bear Gai Jun's momentum and hurriedly looked away, whispering that he was at the end of his rope now and there was nothing he dared to do. People are crazy and can't do it? "
Gai Jun thought for a while, shook his head slowly, and said that your understanding of Han Sui is limited. If he only had such a little understanding, he would have died long ago and would never survive to this day." Gai Jun paused here and comforted Ziyu that there was no need.
Don't worry, my father-in-law will be safe and sound."
After all, it is related to my father's life. If I don't see him for a day, I won't be able to feel at ease. Cai Gui sighed and hoped that it would be as his brother-in-law said. "
Chang'an, Situ Mansion.
Dozens of medical officers and medical staff gathered in a quiet courtyard, communicating in small groups in low voices. Sometimes they glanced fearfully at the soldiers in the corridor. If their eyes made slight contact, they would immediately bounce away like an electric shock. Han Sui's battle situation was unfavorable and he retreated into Chang'an.
After a few words with Gai Jun, he suddenly fainted in the city. They were all summoned by Li Xiangru and came to see Han Sui's doctor.
There are dozens of people with different medical skills, and it is impossible for everyone to go in and take Han Sui's pulse. No matter how many people there are, they will not be useful. In fact, in a situation like this, only two or three people with high medical skills are needed.
Li Xiangru was obviously frightened by Han Sui's fainting and panicked. Of course, they knew this well and would never say it out loud.
After a while, the door of the room was opened, and three elegant elders with fluttering white beards walked out of the room carrying medicine boxes. Li Xiangru immediately stepped forward and asked the doctor in charge, "How is Duke Ming's condition?"
The imperial physician ordered his hand to stroke his beard and replied to Mr. Li in an unhurried manner. From Yiyu's perspective..."
As the imperial physician ordered a long speech, Li Xiangru's face gradually darkened. He was a well-known scholar in Xizhou, and he was very knowledgeable. Even now, he was confused. The anger in Li Xiangru's eyes was growing, and the person next to him saw that the situation was not good.
, hurriedly interjected and said that the imperial doctor's order meant that Mr. Han fell because of his overwork and his anger."
Li Xiangru asked if his life was in danger?"
The medical officer replied that Mr. Han is currently extremely weak. If he continues to worry about official matters, no one will dare to protect him. It is best to rest and recuperate for some time. If he does not replenish his spirit, the root of the disease will most likely remain, and he will suffer from illness in his later years."
Li Xiangru secretly breathed a sigh of relief. What he was afraid of was that Han Sui would fall ill or even die. Now that he heard about his illness, although the medical officer said it was serious, it was actually tiring. He could recover from the illness and it was not considered an illness. Li Xiangru stayed
Two medical officers were waiting in the palace, thinking that they were unprepared, so they all drove away the other officials.
Soon Yan Zhong, Guo Guo and others arrived one after another. Li Xiangru briefly talked about Han Sui's condition, and they sat quietly and waited. When the sun came up, Han Sui woke up faintly, turned his head and looked to one side, and saw everyone rushing forward.
, wanted to get up, but found that his body had no strength at all, so he reluctantly opened his mouth to reassure the ministers, and then ordered everyone to retreat, leaving Li Xiangru alone.
Li Xiangru talked about his illness, and then Cheng Gongying stayed in Chang'an. He talked about it one by one, which made Han Sui feel at ease.
Han Sui looked at the dark beams of the house and sighed. He was like a brother. He refused to listen to the loyal advice of his former brother, so he ended up here."
Li Xiangru said softly, brother, there are no less than 20,000 capable warriors in the city now, and there are more than 10,000 people in Youfufeng, totaling no less than 30,000 to 40,000 people. Even if Gaijun has a strong army, how can he easily defeat me? Now return to Liang.
It’s not too late.”
"Go back to Liang, go back to Liang..." Han Sui murmured to himself, and then said that what Xiangru said made sense, but Gai's army was heavily besieged and it was difficult to break through."
A stern look flashed in Li Xiangru's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said that this matter is easy to solve, we only need to coerce the emperor's officials and the people of Chang'an, even if he gave Gai Jun a hundred courages, he would not dare to attack me with his troops."
"..." Han Sui's expression changed with shock and he looked at Li Xiangru as if he had met this sworn brother for the first time.
Li Xiangru smiled bitterly and said: Brother, the younger brother is depressed and can only think of this way to survive."
"Alas..." Han Sui sighed, closed his eyes, and was speechless for a long time.
