Chapter 1606: A Sensation in the Capital!
? Chapter 1606
"very good!"
Wang Chong narrowed his eyes slightly, and tapped his fingers on the table twice:
"Command, let's start!"
After saying this, Wang Chong closed his fingers, stood up from behind the desk, and was the first to cross the threshold and walked out of the study.
This frontier operation, until now, has reached the end, and it is also the most important juncture.
And following Wang Chong's order, the entire capital revolved around Wang Chong, and a huge force also began to rotate. In just a short period of time, thousands of spies popped up all over the city gates, and posted bulletin boards all over the capital.
"What?! The murderer of the Hu people who slaughtered that village has been caught and taken to the capital?"
"Immediately beheaded in the east of the city for public display?"
"It's so fast, it's the soldiers and horses sent by the foreign king, but this time it's really happy!"
...
All over the city, in front of thousands of announcements, a large number of people in the capital quickly gathered. The border incidents were raging in the capital, and almost everyone knew about it.
The more people know, the more they hate those barbarians who slaughtered the village, and the more they sympathize with those innocent villagers. Especially when the mother and son arrived in the capital, everyone in the capital was moved, angry and compassionate.
However, there was still no movement from the imperial court, but no one thought that the foreign king's action was so fast.
For everyone in the capital, this is definitely unprecedented good news.
"Let's go! The old man is very old now, and his body is not strong. It is not suitable to stand for a long time, but no matter what you say today, you must see those two beasts! die!"
In the crowd, an old man with gray hair, leaning on crutches, trembling with excitement said.
He has been paying attention to the frontier incident almost every day, and now that he finally sees those murderers laying waste to him, how could he not be excited.
And among the crowd,
There were not a few people in the capital like the old man, and a group of people marched towards the place of execution mentioned in the announcement. At the same time, the same situation was happening in every corner of the capital at the same time.
"What?! The King of Foreign Lands really escorted those people to the capital, and is planning to execute them today?"
This incident shocked far more than ordinary people in the capital. At the same time, all the aristocratic families in the capital also received the news one after another, and they were all shocked.
The tragedy in the frontier was beyond the control of the Beiting Protectorate. According to rumors, only the foreign king noticed this matter and decided to intervene. An elite group of hundreds of people has been sent to the northern frontier to perform tasks.
This incident was rumored in the capital, and all the aristocratic families had heard about it, but no one knew whether it was true or not. On the contrary, some spies from aristocratic families reported that the opponent was very difficult to deal with. The dozens of people who slaughtered the village had already returned to the team, shrunk into the army of more than 10,000 people, and were ready to flee at any time.
This is basically an impossible task.
It's just that no one thought that the rumors were actually true. Not only did Wang Chong defeat the army, but he also successfully brought them to the capital.
"Go! Go and have a look!"
In an instant, all the princes, nobles, and aristocratic families sent their people to the place mentioned in the announcement.
Soon, countless people rushed from all directions, and all the aristocratic families and the people of the capital flocked to one place.
And on Xuanwu Street in the east of the city, a huge table was quickly set up in less than a cup of tea. Even more accurately, before the announcement of the list, seventy or eighty skilled craftsmen It's already built here.
All the materials were piled up in the surrounding shops in advance, and in the process of building the high platform, the steel modules that Wang Chong had used in the Western Regions were also used. Obviously, all of this was well prepared.
And when the list was announced, within a short period of time, there was a huge crowd of people here, and an unknown number of people gathered, and even the surrounding roofs were covered with people. Everyone looked at the high platform, waiting for the moment mentioned in the list.
"Why hasn't it appeared yet, people?"
"Didn't you say that the execution is here? Why didn't you see it!"
All around, the crowd was restless, waiting for that moment. The incident in the borderlands was really outrageous, and because of this, everyone was eagerly waiting for the moment when justice would be done.
"boom!"
I don't know how long it took, like a boulder fell, the crowd burst into a commotion, and countless people looked in one direction.
"Look, everyone, people are coming!"
In just a moment, the crowd suddenly boiled. To the southeast of the high platform, a group of people escorted two barbarians, wearing hoods, coming towards here.
"Beast! Kill these two beasts!"
Seeing these two people, the crowd was extremely angry, and even women and children began to curse. The leading Tang general also made a gesture when he saw this scene. The next moment, two soldiers of the Tang Dynasty pulled hard and took off the hoods on their heads.
"Kill them! Kill them!"
In an instant, like some kind of signal, the angry crowd cursed one after another. Countless vegetable leaves, eggs, and even stones swarmed from all directions, hitting Hurugan and Ashid hard. But when the two passed through the dense crowd, the angry crowd even passed through the barriers, grabbing, cursing, and kicking the two of them.
For a little food, he actually killed more than 400 people, and even set fire to them after death, destroying the corpses and obliterating the traces. Such a person, it is not a pity to die!
The crowd was so angry, and there were so many people rushing over to fight the two, that the soldiers sent by Wang Chong to escort the two had to do their best to protect the two, lest the two be in the audience before the execution Died at the hands of all.
"It's not me! You're mistaken, the murderer wasn't me at all!"
Hulu Gan looked at the densely packed Datang people around him, his face was pale and full of fear.
Along the way, time and time again, every time soldiers and horses intercepted him, he thought he could be saved and returned to the prairie alive. However, after so many days, not only was no one able to rescue the two, but the distance The capital of Datang is getting closer and closer.
In Hulugan's cognition, he never thought that he would leave the prairie, be escorted to the capital of the Tang Dynasty in such a way, and appear in this foreign country.
The initial courage has been completely defeated. Looking at the dense crowd all around, who wished to eat him alive, Hulu Gan only felt a kind of fear from the depths of his soul.
The scene in front of him was something he never thought of at the beginning of that operation.
It's just that he can't speak Tang language at all, and no one can understand the Turkic language he speaks.
"Useless thing, you are a Turkic warrior, not a beggar, stand up straight even if you die!"
Ashide on the side shouted sharply, his expression was contemptuous, if he had a knife in his hand, Hurugan might have been hacked to death by him.
Because of this bastard, at least 6,000 people in the vanguard of the Black Wolf Army were buried forever on the grassland, and even they themselves were dragged down by him. If he had known that he would cause such a big trouble, he might have killed him on the prairie long ago.
"Let go of me! I am a general of Western Turks, you have no reason to kill me! If you kill me, you will cause huge trouble, and even trigger a war between the two countries!"
Ashide yelled loudly, even though he was thrown on the face by eggs and vegetable leaves, he didn't frown.
As a vanguard general, he is completely different from people like Hulu Gan.
Although Ashide said this in Turkic, Cheng Sanyuan in front of him understood it.
"Hmph, do you still feel innocent? When you shielded Hurugan and his cavalry and enjoyed the food he looted from that village, you were already doomed. Not to mention, Hurugan Lu Gan is still your subordinate. If more than 400 people were killed in that village, Hulu Gan should bear the main responsibility, and you, the commander, can’t get rid of the responsibility! There are all kinds of subordinates as there are commanders. Yan, blindly conniving, even encouraging, how could such a thing happen? How could we Tang people die in vain?"
Cheng Sanyuan sneered, but these words were spoken in Turkic.
Ast's expression was suffocated, and he couldn't say a word for a while.
good! When he first found out about this, he was indeed conniving, even encouraging, and the rations looted by Hurugan were sent down by him to reward the army.
From this point of view, he really cannot be said to be innocent!
"take away!"
Cheng Sanyuan looked at the complex and volatile Asterisk, knowing that he had understood, Cheng Sanyuan didn't say much, and gave the order to escort the two of them to the high platform.
boom!
The already boiling crowd reached a peak when the two climbed onto the platform. The crowd cursed loudly, filled with righteous indignation. If eyes could kill, these two people would have been cut to pieces.
...
At the same time, in the direction of the west of the city, Li Junxian turned into a flying rainbow and was galloping towards the city at an astonishing speed.
And when he was galloping, hooting pigeons flew down quickly, and at the same time, Confucian masters from all over the city also converged towards Li Junxian.
"Young Master! Not good! The people of the foreign land king are posting notices everywhere in the city, and they are going to execute the two barbarians immediately!"
"My lord, the foreign king has left the mansion and is heading to the place of execution!"
"My lord, Hulugan and Ashid have already appeared, and most of the people in the city have gathered around!"
Information came one after another, from the posting of the announcement to the construction of the high platform, including Wang Chong's leaving the mansion, back and forth, it was only a matter of time. It was obvious that Wang Chong had already calculated everything and arranged everything properly.
Even Li Junxian had to admit that in this round, he had already lost a bit.
