This is not the Datang I am familiar with

In the surrounding mountains on both sides of Xiaoguan, it was not peaceful, the soldiers braved the severe cold, braved the wind and snow to march forward in the night.

The mountains, the snow, and the night became the best cover for laying out an ambush.

Chen Fang took a look at the Luanshan mountain range. Fortunately, it was only October, and it was not yet the time when the weather in the north was really cold.

The snow was heavy, and the sky and the earth gradually became colder. Only the torch on Xiaoguan flickered in the cold wind, illuminating the silent night in Guanzhong.

Chapter 809 Ambush

Seeing several generals of the Northern Han Dynasty lying on the wine table, Zhao Rong wanted to have a few words with Chen Fang, but he looked at Chen Fang's wink at him.

Zhao Rong quickly shut up.

"You guys, help General Yan and others to the camp. Remember, add more charcoal to the charcoal stove. The weather is very cold, so don't freeze the generals."

"Yes!"

The tent was finally empty, and Zhao Rong quickly walked beside Chen Fang.

"My son-in-law, just now a sentry horse in Yan Baihu's army galloped all the way. It should be delivering a letter to King Pingnan."

"Well, be careful in the future, people who are drunk may not be really drunk."

"Your subordinates understand, thank you Consort Ma for reminding me, I almost missed a big deal just now."

At this moment, there was a soft noise outside the tent, and when Zhao Rong's personal soldiers rushed to the tent door, they saw a soldier standing outside the tent when they opened it.

"Go back to duty, what are you doing in the commander's camp?"

"Let her in!"

The soldier quickly gave way, the soldier entered the tent, took off his helmet, and his black hair fell down like a waterfall.

"Master knows it's me?"

"There was no life at all at first, but in the end it made some noise on purpose. Who else but you?"

Dingyu stuck out her pink tongue, and Chen Fang looked at her.

"How's it going?"

"The ambush in the mountains is ready. I checked. I found nine of the artillery positions deployed by General Qin."

"Oh, it seems to be extremely hidden, even you haven't found it all."

"Well, master, you can rest assured that as long as no one is approaching to find it deliberately, the locations of these artillery fires will not be revealed."

"Well, staring at the tent where some Yan Baihu rested at night."

Dingyu put her hair back into a dish and put her helmet back on.

"My son-in-law rests earlier, it's good that I'm here to watch over."

"No, I can't sleep because the matter is so important. The success or failure of the matter is tomorrow."

"My son-in-law, I'm going to check the defense of Guanzhong!"

"I go with you!"

Xiaoguan in the night, the light of the torch hit the face, the snow fell rustlingly, and in a blink of an eye a thin layer had already accumulated on the person's body.

Zhao Rong went to check all the checkpoints and dark posts in the pass. When he came to the place where the six Ying people were temporarily detained, Zhao Rong looked at the deep prison in the pass.

"Should the son-in-law send someone to deliver some quilts?"

"No, they are the Empress Dowager and Her Majesty's people. These severe cold and snowstorms have nothing to do with them. Find someone to beat them up tomorrow and try to inflict as many skin injuries as possible."

"this?"

"Just do what I say. We are all doing things for the Queen Mother and His Majesty. We consider the details of the overall situation to the extreme, so that the other party can relax their vigilance as much as possible."

"Then the son-in-law, do you want someone to pour some more buckets of water on the other party?"

"Yeah, that's a good suggestion, just go ahead and do it. Actually, I've always wanted to teach these guys a lesson for my son-in-law who peeked a few times during martial arts practice. I really thought my son-in-law didn't know."

"The son-in-law is mighty, but if someone is peeping, how can he hide it from the eyes of the son-in-law."

At dawn, the east gradually reveals some brilliance. The sun is completely covered by leaden gray clouds, and the sky is full of snow.

Inside the prison, Ying and a few of his subordinates were severely beaten up by the soldiers sent by Zhao Rong. According to the general's order, they caused more skin injuries, which made people feel miserable at first sight.

Ying and the others screamed, although most of them were pretending, but the feeling of the whip and the wooden stick hitting the flesh was really painful.

Experts are human too!It's not copper skin and iron bones.

After a fat beating, several buckets of ice water were poured on several people, and several soldiers left the prison.

"Ah! Head, what is the son-in-law doing?"

"My son-in-law does things naturally with the intention of my son-in-law. We are doing things for His Majesty the queen mother, so bear with it."

Shadow looked in the direction of the cell door and moved his eyes a few times.

"Is the son-in-law taking the opportunity to beat himself up!"

At noon, dots of white dots began to appear on the snow line outside Xiaoguan, and through the wind and snow, the sound of heavy cavalry's horseshoes stepping on the wind and snow could still be heard.

As the distance gets closer, you can see that the horseshoes of the heavy cavalrymen of the Northern Han Dynasty are covered with wind and snow, and a thin layer of snow has accumulated on the helmets of the men on horseback. From a distance, the white helmets and white armors are integrated with the snow. , like a group of white floating spirits.

The gate of Xiaoguan was wide open, and the heavy cavalry entered in a file.

"Take over the defense of Guanzhong and prepare to welcome the prince."

Zhao Rong looked at Chen Fang, and was glared at by the son-in-law, who was still looking around at this moment.

The defense of Guanzhong was taken over by this group of heavy cavalry, and the area close to King Pingnan was all controlled by soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty.

The king of Pingnan still took his own life very seriously, and he was [-] points wary of the surrendered Tang army.

"General Zhao, I have offended you, come here and disarm them."

Several soldiers from the Northern Han Dynasty came over and took off all the weapons of Zhao Rong and his soldiers, and checked their bodies to ensure that even a single iron leaf could not be carried on them.

Chen Fang was also stripped of his waist saber, and everything related to the army was removed from his body except his armor.

At this time, outside the closed door, King Pingnan shouted and embraced, and several martial arts masters guarded King Pingnan. Chen Fang took a look, but there were no masters with bows and arrows on their backs.

The archer only appeared once when he was spying on the military situation of the Northern Han Dynasty, and never appeared again. Did he disappear?

At this time, Zhao Rong had already hurried a few steps towards King Pingnan and his party.

When King Pingnan saw Zhao Rong, he followed the example of a traitor in the Three Kingdoms period, walked quickly, even ran a few steps, and supported Zhao Rong who was about to bow down.

"General Zhao is willing to submit to my big man. It is the most correct choice. The Southern Tang Dynasty is corrupt and treacherous. It is really unkind and unrighteous to assassinate my big man, His Majesty and Queen."

"Yes, my lord, Zhao Rong is in Xiaoguan, but he has admired the great Han Ming for a long time, this time we can meet..."

Chen Fang looked at the two of them, and it was really a good show. At first, Chen Fang was a little worried for Zhao Rong, but this guy can be the guard of Xiaoguan, not only able to fight, but also to deal with other things , is also within reach.

After welcoming King Pingnan to the camp of the Chinese army, Chen Fang saw that the soldiers of King Pingnan had been standing by King Pingnan's side every step of the way.

"General Zhao, I heard from General Yan that General Zhao arrested the eunuch who was sent by the Southern Tang court to deliver the decree."

"Yes, I will send someone to be locked in a prison, and I will wait for you, the prince, to come and punish him personally."

"Okay, General Zhao asked to bring those eunuchs up! This king wants to interrogate himself."

Zhao Rong hurriedly asked someone to take him away, and he asked Chen Fang to take someone to pick him up, this was the son-in-law's special confession.

After a while, the son-in-law must be present in person. Zhao Rong persuaded him, but he didn't persuade him, but he didn't force it, because he knew in his heart that the son-in-law's martial arts skills are world-class.

How did he know that the eunuchs who guard the heirs are actually no worse than the son-in-law in martial arts.

The reputation of the son-in-law is mostly false.

Chapter 810 Ambush

Chen Fang led people to escort a few eunuchs, looking at the eunuchs who were beaten all over their bodies and their clothes were torn by the whip, King Pingnan's originally vigilant face had gone. .

Chen Fang saw that the guards beside him loosened their hands from the handles of their knives. It seemed that Ying and the others did not suffer this beating in vain.

Wang Pingnan and his party looked at these eunuchs. These eunuchs were obviously just ordinary eunuchs, so they were a little worried.

"Do you want to live?"

"I beg your lord to spare us a few, we were just following orders, and never thought of obstructing the Great Han Heavenly Army!"

"If you want to survive, then tell the king about the current situation in the Southern Tang Dynasty."

Ying hurriedly climbed a few steps forward on his knees, and reported the events of the Great Tang Dynasty to King Pingnan truthfully.

Anyway, he will be a prisoner for a while, so what if he knows.The beating he suffered must be recovered from King Pingnan.

King Pingnan listened, finally let go of his last sliver of vigilance, the news he got from other sources matched what the eunuch said.

The other party didn't lie, which proved that the other party had long since ignored Nantang in order to survive.

Seeing that King Pingnan had completely relaxed his vigilance, Chen Fang's body suddenly moved over there. This movement was extremely fast, relying on the collision of his body, he slammed into the closest guard of King Pingnan.

There was a bang in the tent, and then King Pingnan saw several eunuchs who had been beaten horribly on the ground suddenly jump up, and just when his guards were about to draw their swords, they had already captured several of his guards.

The personal guards that I had carefully selected were caught off guard at this moment, and were subdued by these eunuchs in an instant.

On Chen Fang's side, just as the guard he hit stabilized his figure, Ying slashed his neck with a knife, and then Ying held the handle of his knife with his hand, and drew it back, and the blade swept across An arc, with a cold light already appearing on the blade, slashed across the opponent's throat.

When Chen Fang stabilized his body that had been shaken by the impact, he saw that the Pingnan Wang Jinwei he hit had a line of blood from his throat to his jaw, and he had fallen backwards.

Ying held the handle of the knife with his backhand, and handed the long, narrow and heavy ring-shouldered knife to Chen Fang. Chen Fang took it, and walked towards King Pingnan who had lost all his guards.

"Who are you? Come, come, help me."

"King Pingnan, I advise you to stop yelling, should they rush in or my sword?"

"who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you know where you are right now."

Chen Fang bent Pingnan Wang's kick into a bow and retreated several meters before stopping.

When King Pingnan raised his painful and ugly face, a straight knife had already been brought to his neck.

"How should these people be dealt with?"

"killed!"

The heads of several Pingnan King guards who were subdued with knives in the tent rolled down and turned into several headless corpses. The strong sweet smell of blood spilled on the ground filled the entire tent.

There was already the sound of shaking armor and weapons outside, and in the sound of footsteps, an unknown number of people pressed towards this tent.

"King Pingnan told them to retreat, otherwise there will be one more head here."

"If you kill me, you won't live."

"My life is worthless, but yours is, isn't it? You choose whether to live or die."

"Back down, back down, all back down!"

"smart people!"

The back of Chen Fang's saber patted King Pingnan's cheek a few times, then got up, and handed the Ring Shoudao to Ying.

"Zhao Rong, let people take away the weapons of the people outside, and no matter what method is used, let King Pingnan speak within an hour and confess who was stabbed by the Emperor and Empress."

"Yes!"

Chen Fang didn't reveal his identity, so Ying naturally wouldn't. He just held King Pingnan with one hand. Outside, Zhao Rong had commanded the Guanzhong sergeant to disarm the heavy cavalry that entered Guanzhong to protect King Pingnan.

With King Pingnan in Ying's hands, he is not afraid of what will happen to these people.

To capture a thief, first capture the king. As long as the king is captured, other pawns are not to worry about.

"Zhao Rong, I advise you to let the lord go, kneel down obediently and apologize, maybe the lord is merciful, and he can spare your life. Outside of Xiaoguan, there are my 30 troops and more than 2000 cannons at this time, enough Squeeze the entire Xiao Pass."

Zhao Rong didn't answer, kicked the opponent to the ground and struggled for a long time, unable to get up.

"Destroy Xiaoguan, then King Pingnan will also be buried with Xiaoguan."

There Ying had already carried King Pingnan to torture him, this was Ying's forte, and Chen Fang himself was not proficient in such things, so naturally he handed it over to Ying.

These eunuchs who guard the heirs are more vicious and vicious than the Ministry of Punishments and Dali Temple.

Chen Fang just listened to the howling and screaming in the camp not far away, and finally felt better.

Capturing King Pingnan was only the first step. To prevent King Pingnan from revealing the truth about the assassination of the Empress Han, there were still 30 Northern Han troops outside. These people were not so easy to deal with.
