Chapter 766: The Gaoguli people in the dungeon (third update, asking for diamonds)
The reason why Luo Zhang led his people to rush towards the palace was to capture the thieves first. If he could catch the Turk king, then this siege battle would not have to continue. However, Luo Zhang thought, most of the Turk kings would be captured.
He has already escaped.
But you have to go and see to know. Of course, Luo Zhang went to the palace for one more thing, and that was to help Sun Simiao rescue people. His friend was imprisoned in the palace prison, and Luo Zhang had made a promise to Sun Simiao.
Of course, it would be best to catch the Turkic King, but it doesn't matter if you can't. Anyway, Hou Junji is already ambushing him ten miles outside the north of the city.
Sun Simiao and Lao Duwu naturally followed Luo Zhang, thinking about the person they were about to rescue. Even though Sun Simiao was already seventy years old, his cheeks were still rosy and the corners of his eyes were moist.
On the side, Old Poison smiled slightly when he saw this scene and said: "It seems that our Divine Doctor Sun still has a sentimental side. This old lover is about to meet again. Isn't there a lot of feelings for him!"
Luo Zhang glanced at Sun Simiao. Although he wanted to laugh, he held back. If he laughed out loud, Sun Simiao might not be able to see anyone.
Hearing what Old Poison said, Sun Simiao gave Old Poison a hard look and said, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute!"
"Humph, you are so old. If you were willing to listen to me back then, what would happen now?" Old Poison rolled his eyes.
This sentence immediately aroused Luo Zhang's gossip. Did Grandpa Sun have any romantic affairs back then?
I can't tell that a person as old-fashioned as Grandpa Sun actually has a romantic affair. It's true that people are beyond appearances and the sea is inaccessible. Although he was very curious, Luo Zhang didn't ask much.
"If you say one more thing, I will fall out with you!" Sun Simiao spoke to the old poisonous man, but glanced at Luo Zhang. Seeing that Luo Zhang had no reaction, he glared at the old poisonous man again, obviously not wanting him to talk too much. After all,
Speaking of what happened back then was a big concern for him, and he didn't want to lose face in front of Luo Zhang.
Seeing that Sun Simiao seemed to be really angry, the old poisoner naturally stopped talking.
The army slowly advanced towards the palace. Sure enough, the situation in the palace was as Luo Zhang had guessed. After a vigorous search, the palace was already empty. There was no trace of the Turkic King, only some abandoned slaves.
According to what the slaves said, the Turkic King had already fled towards the north of the city with his own bodyguards when they first invaded the royal city. This just confirmed Luo Zhang's previous conjecture, that he did not know whether Hou Junji could defeat the Turkic King.
Stopped and captured.
However, what made Luo Zhang a little confused was that he never met the Turkic masters that Sun Simiao and the others called him. He didn't know whether they saw that the Turkic king was gone and left, or whether they followed the Turkic king.
It would be fine if he left in a careless manner, but if he followed the Turkic king, Hou Junji might not be able to stop him.
But that was not the time to think about it now. After failing to find the Turkic Queen, Luo Zhang captured several slaves and asked them to take him to the palace prison.
The palace prison is located behind the palace hall. There, the Turkic king specially built an underground prison to imprison those princes and nobles who disobeyed him, as well as members of the royal family who committed crimes.
The person Sun Simiao wanted to save was imprisoned here.
At this time, the door to the underground prison was already open, so they could walk in directly without having to open the door.
Perhaps the guards in the prison had already fled here after learning that the Tang army had invaded here.
Walking into the underground prison, Luo Zhang felt like a beggar walking into the Grand View Garden.
Compared with the underground secret room in his home, the underground prison of the Turkic King can be called luxurious. The downward corridor is surrounded by many gems, and the ground is paved with red stalls. After reaching the underground, the underground is even brightly lit with oil lamps.
, torches were hung all over the walls on both sides.
There are not many prisons here, and you can see the end at a glance, and the prisons on both sides look equally well-decorated. Compared to the dirty and messy prisons in the Tang Dynasty with only stone beds, this place is really luxurious.
The bed is a wooden bed, and it is actually covered with animal fur. I don’t know what it is, but it seems to be very warm.
When they discovered that someone had entered here, the Turks who were imprisoned in the prison looked outside the prison.
Discovering that the people who entered here were not Turks but Tang people, the detainees immediately started shouting at Luo Zhang and the others.
Luo Zhang didn't understand, but he had a translator. Under the interpretation of the translator, Luo Zhang finally understood that these Turks were actually scolding him, which was okay.
People like this are locked up, and they still think they are nobles. They really don't know what to say.
"Open the cell door and beat me hard. If you beat me to death, it's mine. If you don't, it's yours!" Luo Zhang just glanced at these people, said something to the guards behind him, and continued walking deeper.
.
He didn't care about these Turkic nobles at all. Even their king had abandoned them. It was obvious that they were undesirable masters, and they were not worth much if they were kept. On the contrary, they were a waste of food, and they were not easy to serve. It was better to die.
.
However, just as Luo Zhang was walking deeper, several figures flashed out and stood in front of Luo Zhang.
Lao Duwu and Sun Simiao immediately stopped in front of Luo Zhang and looked at the people in front of them solemnly.
When Luo Zhang saw the movements and expressions of Sun Simiao and Lao Duwu, he knew that they were probably masters or worshipers of the Turks.
But looking at their dressing, they don’t look like Turks, but more like Koguryo people. How come there are Koguryo people here and they still stay here?
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
Before Luo Zhang could speak, the people standing in front of Luo Zhang started asking questions.
Hearing their words, Luo Zhang was even more certain that these were Gaoguli people, because they had captured Gaoguli people and had heard the Gaoguli people speak.
It's one thing to hear it, but it's another thing to understand it. Only people here can understand the Turkic language, but no one can understand the Gaogouli people. Luo Zhang has no idea what these Gaogouli people are saying.
, I only spread my hands, which means I don’t understand it at all!
Seeing that the people in front of them ignored them while they were speaking, the people from Gaoguli in front of them couldn't help but get angry.
They came here to negotiate with the Turkic King to march together and annex the Tang Dynasty. Although the Turkic King failed this time, with the strength of the Turks, a failure is nothing. Wait until the next year, and they will send troops together with the Turks in Gaoguli
The Tang Dynasty will definitely make the head and tail of the Tang Dynasty unable to care about each other. When the time comes, the Tang Dynasty will be at your fingertips.
