Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 467
Chapter 467 Crazy Wolf
Ten temples rose from the ground!
Qingluo Yuan’s arrival at the dozens of miles of plains around Dafeichuan was like a hell on earth in the Blood Pool Corpse Mountain. When the cold wind blew, Hou Junji could smell the smell of blood as he sat in the commander’s tent.
At the rear army’s supplies, there were many more torn-up sabers and transformed shovels. Many executioners had their jaws broken and their arms cramped from chopping people’s necks.
More than 50,000 lives were lost!
…
The snowstorm stopped for a moment, and more than twenty miles northwest of Dafei Chuan, a large number of carriages and horses were moving towards them.
Walking in front of him was a general flag with the words “Eldest Sun” written on it.
Changsun Huan rode on his horse and looked at the vaguely visible Dafeichuan military camp in front of him. He was already very uneasy, and his mood became even more depressed.
“Dao Sect Li is quite sensible. After I took the initiative to come back and plead guilty, he didn’t blame me. He only remembered my personal mistake once and ordered me to pay for it.” “However, I don’t think Li Daozong is a good thing. He is also one of the important figures in the military. The reason why he didn’t punish me face to face is probably because he didn’t want to cause trouble-this old fox!”
“Li Daozong is only temporarily in charge of the rear of Lanzhou on behalf of Qin Mubai. He is mainly in charge of civil affairs and logistics. All of Guanxi Army’s power is firmly in Qin Mubai’s hands, and Hou Junji, the marching Sima, is the one in charge of the military justice and punishing him-he is our Changsun Clan’s sworn enemy!”
Thinking of this, Changsun Huan’s heart became even more nervous, and he had no choice but to take a deep breath to calm his emotions.
“Dao Sect Li asked me to pay tribute to Dafei Chuan … I wonder if this trip was fierce or auspicious. Does Hou Junji really dare to take revenge on me? This guy who had just lost his luck was once my father’s loser. Now that he’s living under Qin Mubai’s roof, he shouldn’t be as arrogant as he used to be, right? It’s up to the owner to beat the dog. He wouldn’t go behind Qin Mubai’s back and secretly target me, causing his owner, Qin Mubai, to form a blood feud with my father. He shouldn’t be stupid, right? Even Dao Sect Li opened his eyes and closed them. He shouldn’t have been foolish with me at this juncture … ”
After pondering for a while, Changsun Huan finally found a little reason to comfort himself. He was even more relieved when he looked at the caravan of mules, horses, and civilian soldiers that was more than ten kilometers long behind him. “No matter what, I brought him grain and supplies under the snowstorm. He should be grateful to me for sending charcoal in the snow!”
“Hurry up and try to finish the grain delivery before nightfall, so that I can overthrow General Hou!” Zhang Sunhuan shouted loudly as his heart finally calmed down.
As the sky darkened, Hou Junji sat alone in his tent and wrote a letter. His originally somewhat skinny face was a bit cold and ferocious due to the tension.
After he finished writing, he put down his pen and carefully folded the letter before placing it in the envelope. He picked up the other two letters and gently stroked them in his hand. He sighed and said, “This is my last words!”
At this moment, Yuwen Hongtai came. He didn’t pay attention to the announcement and directly rushed into the handsome tent. How could the account collectors and pawns dare to block him?
“Hou Junji! You want to rebel?!” Yuwen Hongtai was so furious that he pointed at Hou Junji’s nose and cursed. He alerted some of the generals and surrounded the handsome tent.
“What do you mean?” Hou Junji glanced at him and said coldly.
“You asked me to bring people to the Buha River to repair the dam, so you deliberately sent me away!” Yuwen Hongtai roared angrily, “But you’re good. You took the liberty of attacking Qingluo Yuan and killing so many prisoners-what did my third brother tell you when we left? I told you to guard the village and not kill the prisoners! What is this not a rebellion?”
“I will not accept the fate of the Outer Lord. Who are you to blame me?” Hou Junji glanced at him nonchalantly and turned his face to say coldly, “You only know how to repeatedly use your third brother to suppress others. When did you do something serious?”
“What are you talking about?” Yuwen Hongtai was instantly enraged. He rushed forward to pick up Hou Junji’s clothes and roared, “Hou, you white-eyed wolf! Don’t forget who pulled you when you lost your soul and trusted you with a heavy responsibility! Now that you’ve done such a thing, are you still a human?”
“Let go!” Hou Junji was also enraged and slapped Yuwen Hongtai’s wrist. Moreover, Yuwen Hongtai’s grasp was so strong that not only did he not let go, he instead roared angrily and lifted Hou Junji to the point that he was hanging in the air and even circled around!
The generals outside the tent were instantly frightened. They rushed in together to pull Yuwen Hongtai and shouted, “General Yuwen, stop!”
“You’re backwards!”
Hou Junji was furious and was about to cut off Yuwen Hongtai’s wrist when he pulled out his saber in public. Yuwen Hongtai could only let go.
“Someone! Tie up this reckless man who ignores the military law!”
“Who dares!!” Yuwen Hongtai also pulled out his saber, his eyes glaring blood red as he shouted, “Come up one, I’ll chop one!”
The atmosphere was tense to the extreme!
The generals were frightened and hurriedly stopped the two of them. They tried to persuade them, but they finally took the sabers from their hands and separated them on both sides.
“Hou Junji, you unruly servant and thief! You ignore the imperial law and look down on no one, you unkindly white-eyed wolf!” Yuwen Hongtai, who was tightly hugged by the group, pointed at Hou Junji and stamped his feet, “If you dare to rebel, I won’t agree! Look at the long saber in grandfather’s hand, the first one to cut off your dog head and clean the door!”
“Forget about general YuWen, say less…” The general school bitterly blocked, very not easy to hold him out of the tent.
Hou Junji took a few deep breaths and his expression was really ugly. People also advised him, don’t be with YuWen HongTai general knowledge, this fellow has always been rude in addition to Young Marshal Qin who also don’t buy, this is not the first day.
“You!” Hou Junji pointed at his trusted aide and said to him, “Bring a whole group of people to tie up Yuwen Hongtai, seize his talisman and send him to Shanzhou!”
“General, this is inappropriate” The Marquis said carefully, “Although Yuwen Hongtai has offended the general, he is Young Marshal Qin’s confidant after all. You are doing this …”
“What? Even you think I’m going to rebel?” Hou Junji glared at him angrily and said, “This brute is too wild, this general can’t restrain him. It is precisely because he is a trusted aide of Guanxi Army and a great general of Young Marshal Qin that this general sent him back. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. With him here, this general’s military order is impossible to pass. Is he waiting to lose the war?”
When the generals heard Hou Junji’s words, they were all silent. The Marquis had no choice but to accept the offer and bring his men to handle matters. Very quickly, he heard Yuwen Hongtai cursing and fighting outside. This bison-like man was crushed to the ground by a group of people and was tied up tightly.
Hou Junji walked out and retreated to Yuwen Hongtai’s side, taking out the three letters.
“Yuwen Hongtai, I was going to do this because I had to.” Hou Junji whispered, “I don’t have time to argue with you anymore. I definitely won’t betray anyone. Whether you believe me or not, it’s up to you. I’ll send someone to send you back to Shanzhou. When I see Major Marshal, please forward these three letters to him.”
Yuwen Hongtai, who was struggling to curse, was suddenly stunned. He stared at Hou Junji with wide eyes, “What do you want? What exactly do you want?”
Hou Junji let out a sigh, and a smile appeared on his face. He patted Yuwen Hongtai’s big black face and said, “You will know in the future. Let’s say goodbye here. You should hurry up and get on your way!”
“Goodbye?” Yuwen Hongtai blinked his big bronze bell eyes blankly. He didn’t know when the anger in his heart had dissipated. Suddenly, he shouted, “Are you courting death?”
“I’ve already died countless times. I’m not so hopeless.” Hou Junji smiled and stood up. He turned around and walked into the handsome tent. He waved his hand and shouted, “Send General Yuwen away!”
Dozens of soldiers rushed up and pulled Yuwen Hongtai up from the ground, directly lifting him up and leaving.
Yuwen Hongtai kept struggling and shouting, “Let go of me, let go of me-Hou Junji, what do you want to do?”
Very quickly, he was stuffed into a carriage and escorted away by a group of cavalry.
Jing Yuwen Hongtai’s disturbance made the already heavy atmosphere in the barracks even more tense. The crowd could vaguely feel that Hou Junji was planning something shocking.
Shortly after Yuwen Hongtai left, Hou Junji calmed down and was about to convene a military meeting to announce his decision. The army came to report that a large amount of grain had arrived from Shanzhou and was being unloaded into the warehouse.
“The heavens have really helped me! Could it be that the heavens, who have fooled someone for decades, have opened their eyes at this time?” Hou Junji was delighted and casually asked, “Who sent it?”
“It’s General Changsun. Along with him are more than 10,000 Lanzhou recruits and 20,000 commoners.”
“Which eldest grandson general?” Hou Junji was a little surprised.
The deputy general replied, “It’s General Zuo Wei Wei, the deputy general manager of the West Sea Road Army …”
Hou Junji waved his hand and interrupted the lieutenant.
“He still dares to come back?” Hou Junji smiled coldly, and the deputy general beside him felt a chill run down his spine.
“Let him see me!”
“Yes!”
Shortly after, Changsun Huan arrived at the commander’s tent. His heart beat for a while, and he bravely walked in. He forced a smile and cupped his fists and saluted, “At the end of the day, Changsun Huan greets General Hou! At the end of the day, on the orders of the King of Jiangxia, I will send General Hou 80,000 stones of grain, 30,000 sets of cold clothes, and more …”
“Shut up.” Hou Junji shouted. He looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly, “Looking at your situation, does it seem like you are still waiting for this general to glorify you?”
“General Hou, what do you mean by that?”
“Grain is the lifeline of the army. Right now, it’s freezing cold and people lack food and horses. Countless cattle, sheep, horses and horses were frozen to death!” Hou Junji’s expression was gloomy as he slapped his hand on the table. “You grain betting officer, you treat the lives of the frontline soldiers as if nothing had happened. You slowly delayed the delivery of grain for many days, yet you still dare to laugh and ask for rewards here!”
“This!” Changsun Huan immediately panicked. He missed the grain period, but the crime was no less serious than losing the battle at the frontlines. He hurriedly said, “Where did General Hou start? At the end of the day, he didn’t dare to delay his life and sent it to Da Feichuan despite all the hardships and snowstorms!”
“Go through all the hardships and brave the wind and snow?” Hou Junji sneered, “You spoiled and spoiled young master, how could you suffer like this? In the past, when Shanzhou sent grain to Dafeichuan, at most 15 days, you dragged it away for more than 30 days! Isn’t this a delay?”
“The snow is freezing the mountains. Even if I want to hurry, I can’t! Even if I don’t fear the hardships and hurry up, the mule carriage is stuck in the snow. I can’t leave quickly!” “If General Hou doesn’t believe me, you can ask the soldiers who are traveling with you, and find out if you have delayed any effort on the way!” Chang Sun Huan hurriedly argued, “General Hou, if you don’t believe me, you can ask them!”
“You still dare to argue!” Hou Junji shouted angrily and patted a few cases, “Around, take down this guilty general who forcefully shirked responsibility with me!”
“Yes!”
Within the handsome tent, all of them were confidants of Hou Junji. Upon hearing the order, he immediately rushed out and caught Changsun Huan. He first removed his saber and then tied a sharp rope tightly.
“General Hou! Why do you want to take people without asking?” Changsun Hua was both shocked and furious. He was struggling for the last time and shouted, “Jiang Xia King just handed over the grain to Mo Jiang. Mo Jiang hastily rushed to Da Fei Chuan without stopping. There was not the slightest delay along the way! Even if it was a few days late, it was still the Heavenly Duke who blocked it. How could a human be able to do anything?”
“Heavenly Duke obstructs?” Hou Junji smiled coldly and walked over to Changsun Huan with his hands cut off. His eyes were filled with killing intent as he looked at Changsun Huan and whispered, “In that case, the heavens want to kill you!”
“What, what!” “Hou Junji, take revenge on me!!!” Zhang Sunhuan’s face immediately turned pale.
“The Tang army has strict rules. Those who delay grain delivery for less than three days will receive thirty staff. Those who delay for more than three days will be fined half a year for fifty staff demotion. Those who delay for more than ten days will receive one hundred staff demotions. Those who delay for more than half a month will be executed!” After Hou Junji finished speaking, the corners of his mouth slightly moved upwards, and he said coldly, “Military orders are like a mountain, and the law does not tolerate emotions. Speaking of which, it is reasonable for Hou Junji to kill you–someone, push it out, kill!!”
Left and right guards didn’t say a word and dragged Changsun Huan out after flipping him over.
“Hou Junji!! You bastard! You take revenge on me and kill innocents!” Changsun Huan struggled desperately and scolded loudly. Suddenly, his pants were wet, and he had a fecal aura.
“Coward!-Shut up his stinky mouth. Staff a hundred first, then lean your head!” Hou Junji shouted.
Very quickly, the sound of a heavy slap came from outside the tent. The executioners were all confidants of Hou Junji, and they had no good impression of Changsun Huan. In less than a dozen years, this well-fed young master’s skin and flesh had been torn apart, and he was breathing heavily with less air intake.
“Wake up with a cold breath and continue fighting!”
Hou Junji personally imprisoned him, so he had no choice but to obey his orders.
Changsun Huan, come and go, come and go. In the end, the saber slashed down and the human head tumbled down.
Hou Junji’s eyes glowed with a wolf light when he mentioned the head of Changsun Huanxue Didi. He snorted and said to himself, “Old thief Changsun, killing a coward son like a pig or dog is considered to be your fortune. In the next life, someone from the Marquis will find you to settle the score with!”
“Send me the order. Everyone gather. I was about to announce the order!”
Very quickly, the size of the entire army will assist, should be gathered in the ZhongJun marshal tent. Everyone already knew that Hou Junji had slaughtered the prisoners, drove Yuwen Hongtai away, and killed Changsun Huan. Everyone guessed that he had done something so heartless and reckless that he must have put himself to death and wanted to do something shocking.
“This general has ordered all the soldiers of Da Feichuan to kill their way to the plateau and take the cities of Luo!” Hou Junji threw down his words, causing the entire tent to be in a daze.
“General Hou, this is impossible! Our army is short of grain, and now it is snowing heavily to seal the mountains, so it is really unfavorable for our army to fight. Also, didn’t General Hou say that the Garqin Mausoleum will definitely return? Why don’t we set up an ambush in an important place, so that we can make up for our mistakes?”
“Shut up!” Hou Junji shouted, “This general is giving the order, not discussing with you! If you dare not accept the order, the military will punish you severely!”
Everyone was speechless, holding back their words and not daring to say anything. Changsun Huan’s bloody head was still on the side.
Hou Junji coldly swept his gaze over the crowd and said, “If you let Galqin Mausoleum harm the Central Plains, I will be punished for it. If you want to ambush Galqin Mausoleum, the Imperial Court has already sent people to take our lives before he returns!” If you want to save your life, you can kill me on the plateau and capture that abandoned sect and praise me! ”
Although the crowd felt that this was reasonable, they all felt that Hou Junji’s actions were too crazy. How could these tens of thousands of troops destroy a country? As long as he stepped onto the plateau, he would be alone. Whether or not this battle could be fought, even if they were frozen to death or starved to death on the plateau, it was still possible.
Hou Junji was still hesitant. He reached out and pulled Changsun Huan’s head over and placed it on the table. “It was someone who wanted to force you. At this moment, we have already boarded the same boat. We have no retreat and no choice. We have to move forward. Whoever dares to hesitate and miss the big event on this boat will be the end of it!”
“General, listen to the command!” People helplessly, had to heart a horizontal led promise.
“Alright!–Pass on the order, gather all the troops and clear up, and advance towards the northwest!!”
