Turbulent Times Chapter 725: Wang’s terrifying background

Over 60,000 troops surrounded the city of Taiyuan in panic. Wang Long stood on the top of the city and said loudly: "You are also soldiers of the Sui Dynasty, but you were bewitched by the treacherous traitor Gao Ying. Now Gao Ying has been executed. You are no longer loyal, and the imperial army is pressing behind you, don’t you put down your swords and guns and surrender, are you really going to die in vain.”

All the officers and soldiers were stunned, and then looked at each other with a bit more hesitation and struggle.

At this time, the general who commanded the 65,000 troops, Gao Ying's confidant general Jing Zhiqian, said angrily: "Wang Long, you despicable villain, don't believe him, he is After trying to trick us into surrendering, then kill us easily."

Wang Long sneered: "Jing Zhiqian, you are so stupid. If you want to die, do you want to drag everyone behind you to die?"

Murderous intent appeared in Jing Zhiqian's eyes: "Wang Long! You should die! Even if you die, I will never let your treachery succeed."

Wang Long sighed quietly, and said: "That's fine, I won't be polite."

Jing Zhiqian was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what he meant by this sentence.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Long shouted helplessly and panickedly: "Let's do it!"

Jing Zhiqian was stunned again, an ominous premonition appeared in his heart, and it became more and more clear. When he was secretly thinking that the situation was not good, a Captain Guo Yi, whom he relied on as his confidant, suddenly drew his sword and struck at him. Before everyone could react, they raised their swords and slashed at Jing Zhiqian, who was close at hand.

This is a killer move, no one would have thought that this general who was usually drawn by Jing Zhiqian as his confidant would suddenly kill Jing Zhiqian!

With a slash, Jing Zhiqian's head was separated from his body, and along with the blood spraying from the neck fracture like a fountain, Jing Zhiqian's head also shot up into the sky, and finally fell to the ground quickly, rolling on the ground. Stopped after a few laps, already too dead to die.

The face of the head was facing upwards, and Jing Zhiqian's eyes were still opened to the maximum extent. Until the last moment of his life, his eyes were still full of extreme horror and disbelief, and he couldn't believe the part he trusted the most. The general will betray him and kill him.

After the head fell to the ground, Jing Zhiqian's body slowly fell from the horse. After a brief death-like silence, the generals and soldiers behind him suddenly exploded, and there was a chaotic sound of swords being unsheathed, countless The knife and gun were pointed at Captain Guo Yi who assassinated Jing Zhiqian, and when he was about to kill him on the spot, he heard Wang Long's voice from afar: "Soldiers, think about it, your family members are still in Taiyuan City. , I, Wang Long, as the suzerain of the Wang family in Taiyuan and the Duke of the court, I dare to swear here that as long as you surrender, I promise to be your guarantor, so that your majesty and the court will not pursue you after the traitor Gao Ying The crime of treason. Of course, if you are stubborn, I can guarantee that you will end up in ruins and death?" Wang Long's tone of the last sentence gradually increased.

The soldiers outside the city became more and more hesitant, and their swords and guns could no longer be held firmly.

Just at this time, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Your Majesty is right, we only have to surrender now."

I have to say that this sentence is very appropriate and timely. If it were Wang Long who said it, the soldiers might not necessarily buy it. , because Paoze's position is the same as theirs, everyone has the same idea, they just want to live.

As a result, everyone's expressions became more and more hesitant, and the swords and guns in their hands dropped unconsciously.

The Captain Guo Yi who had just assassinated Jing Zhiqian suddenly threw the knife in his hand, then knelt down on the ground with a plop, and bowed down towards Taiyuan City.

"The final general is willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright!"

Almost at the same time, more than a dozen middle and low-level generals in the crowd also came out, knelt down facing Taiyuan City, as if they had rehearsed, and said in unison: "The last general will abandon the dark and turn to the bright!"

With the leadership of these generals, finally some people knelt down with hesitation, one, two, a group, one piece, and finally most of them knelt down, only a few hundred people were left with angry and sad expressions They were Jing Zhiqian's personal soldiers, holding their swords and staring at Captain Guo Yi who was kneeling at the front with hatred.

"Your bones are soft, our bones are not soft, we want to avenge Gao Gong and General Jing!" A standing captain shouted mournfully.

Hundreds of people who were also standing raised their swords one after another, moved their feet, and ran towards the Captain Guo Yi. It was obvious that they really wanted to avenge Jing Zhiqian.

On the top of the wall, Wang Long raised his hand calmly, and shouted decisively: "Put the remnants of these traitors to death on the spot!"

The first batch of generals who pledged their allegiance immediately stood up, raised their swords, and slashed at the back of the group of remnants. , surrounded these hundreds of remnants heavily, and finally there was a burst of swords, and hundreds of people fell in a pool of blood without any suspense.

Wang Long exhaled a long breath, tried hard to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and his expression remained calm.

Wang Junlin stood next to Wang Long and witnessed the whole process. When Jing Zhiqian was beheaded by the Captain Guo Yi, even he was shocked.

"Seven clans and five surnames, a thousand-year-old family is indeed no small matter, with profound background and extremely powerful influence. I will never know how much power they still hide in the court, army, and people." Wang Junlin knew that Captain Guoyi and the The dozen or so low-ranking military officers who took the initiative to stand up behind were all members of the Wang family. The process of Wang Long conquering more than 60,000 troops outside the city of Taiyuan gave him a strong shock.

Wang Long said in a majestic and loud voice: "Very good, I, Wang Long, mean what I say, and I will ensure the safety of you and your family. Now General Bai will be the commander and lead the army to camp outside the city. If there are still rebels in the army Those who are killed on the spot!"

The General Bai he was talking about was Captain Guo Yi who killed Jing Zhiqian just now. After hearing Wang Long's words, he immediately bowed to accept his orders.

According to Wang Junlin and Wang Long's plan, the next step is to further control the more than 60,000 soldiers and horses that have just been conquered outside the city. The soldiers and horses didn't spend too much effort. I don't know how many chess pieces have been placed in the army by Wang Long these years. When Wang Long shouted, dozens of chess pieces stood up. These people took the lead, while Gao Ying, Jing Zhiqian had been executed again, and the army led by Yang Su was about to pursue. Under such circumstances, the soldiers easily made a decision to pledge their allegiance to Wang Long, hoping that Wang Long could protect their safety.
