Chapter 109 The Change of Xizhou

The next day, in Langzhou City, Wuping Jiedushi Office.

Because Peng Shiyu and his sister were saved, Li Yuan sent an order to gather military generals in the conference hall.

In addition to Lin Sichang and Ebony Special Service and other personal generals sent by the previous group, dozens of major military generals under Wuping arrived. After Li Yuan waved his hand to screen all the maids in the hall and ordered his personal soldiers to close the door.

Seeing that the generals were so serious, they looked serious on their faces. They naturally understood in their hearts that a great battle was about to fight. They adjusted their sitting postures, straightened their waists and waited quietly.

After Li Yuan's nodding and approval, Luo Erhu stood up first and reported the results of the attack and the casualties between the two sides.

"Master, generals, in the battle last night, our Wuping army had 5,000 soldiers, 346 casualties, of which 262 were killed and 84 injured, 142 war horses were lost, 1,800 enemy troops were wiped out from the enemy chief, and more than 1,000 barbarian crossbows and blades and more than 600 sets of leather armor were seized..."

The generals in the hall became active in an instant. Although the number of people was obviously several times that of the enemy, it was a joyful victory.

"Congratulations to the Grand Marshal! As expected, the Grand Marshal himself took the opportunity to win such a great victory..." The generals hurriedly stood up and bowed to Li Yuan to congratulate him, with a look of pride on his face.

Li Yuan naturally had a smile on his face, but he was not very satisfied with the result of this battle.

Since the Han army was besieging Tanzhou City, the situation was urgent and the military equipment was supervised. All the cold forged armor and new weapons were dispatched to join the army first, resulting in the Wuping Army being able to continue to use the original armor, but those equipment was not far superior to the Dongxi barbarians.

Those barbarians with luxurious equipment and half of them were armoured, even if they were few and had many enemies, and they lost their fighting spirit at that time, they could still fight to kill 800 Tang troops wearing armored and holding sharp-sharp forces. The combat power was obviously beyond Li Yuan's expectations.

Correspondingly, when the generals were smiling happily, the faces of Peng Qingying, who was sitting in the left head, looked pretty, of course, he was angry, but a little bit of tolerant. After all, the Tang army killed their own tribe members. Except for the damn Tian Hongyou and others, a small number of barbarian soldiers were deceived by the Tian clan and died clearly.

When the generals became a little more intense, Li Yuan asked, "Brother Peng, what kind of changes have happened in Xizhou? Why were he and Ling Mei chased him all the way?"

Peng Qingying hurriedly stood up, bowed to Li Yuan and sighed: "Xiaoshuai, I am ashamed of you! Xizhou is already the one after another..."

As Peng Qingying said in detail with a sad and angry look on his face, the generals finally learned what had happened in this familiar land recently.

Since he vowed to the heavens with Wu Qin, Peng Qingying had reported this matter to his father, Tian Sidao, the lord of the eight states, before returning to Xizhou. Tian Sidao was ill and bedridden. He had always disobeyed his eldest son Peng Qingying's idea. He only heard Peng Qingying's small description of Li Yuan and mentioned Peng Shigao's situation in the Tang Dynasty. Tian Sidao immediately agreed to the alliance between the two places, and formally gave the position of the governor of Xizhou to Peng Qingying.

However, as the exchanges between the two places gradually became closer and even ended, there was no praise among the Dongxi barbarians, such as the Tian clan led by Peng Qingying's father-in-law Peng Shiyu.

The native barbarians have always hated the Han people very much. After that, Peng Qingying lost half of his elite soldiers in the battle of Jiashan. The new governor of Xizhou was not yet firmly established, and his proposal was naturally questioned. It was very difficult to reach the government orders. Taking advantage of Wu Qinfeng's illness, Peng Shiyu and others secretly recruited soldiers in Jinchen Seven Prefectures, as if they were ready to do nothing.

Wu Qinfeng learned about the strangeness very slowly, so he hurriedly sent a letter to strengthen the city defense of Xizhou to deal with emergencies at any time. However, Peng Qingying finally expected that the root of disaster had long been planted under his territory.

A few days later, my eldest sister Peng Shichou and I were hunting in the city. It was too late to wait before we returned to the mansion. The entire small governor's mansion was covered with corpses from the door of the mansion to the front yard, and my eyes were full of blood. The former leader of the Eight Prefectures Tian Sidao had been killed by the poison, his face was pale and purple, and he had already become cold and stiff.

After that, Wu Qinfeng was frightened to find that eight brothers Peng Shizuo, Peng Shiqi and Peng Shihuang were all dead, and Peng Qingying's wife, Tian Siyang, who was pregnant with eight-legged children, and Peng Yuntao, also knew where to go.

Just when Peng Qingying was in a state of chaos and was desperate, he thought that Peng Shiyu had already led his troops to retreat to his city of Xizhou. At this time, he suddenly retreated to his mansion, and even brought the chiefs of various tribes in Dongxi and small generals in front of him.

Before a touching cry passed, Peng Shiyu detoured over the grieving governor of Xizhou, ordered the murderer who murdered the great master in public, and even asked to inspect Peng Qingying's own room.

Wu Qinfeng was the master of Xizhou. Such polite and barbaric behavior was different from committing. Wu Qinfeng, who was in extreme grief, naturally refuted it, but I was shocked to find that one of the people present praised it, and the soldiers in Xizhou City knew why they had not arrived. There were only a few guards beside me, so I had to endure it and stalemate it.

Very slowly, Wu Qinfeng's subordinate found several bottles of snake venom from Peng Qingying's room, and the doctor was in trouble and asked to check it in public. Peng Shiyu shouted that the evidence was confirmed, and finally found that his son-in-law Peng Qingying committed the heinous crime of killing his father and killing his brother, and demanded that his position as governor of Xizhou be stripped of his position and severe punishment after the entire clan was confronted.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was upset. Peng Qingying instantly understood that it was the careful layout that Peng Shiyu had prepared for seizing power, but he never thought that as an in-law, he would be so sinister and cruel.

Just as he wanted to argue, he saw Peng Shiyu taking out the so-called Wu Qinfeng's last order. The following was clearly written that he ordered his seven sons Peng Shigao to inherit his ancestral property, and there was no Tian Sidao's small seal as evidence. That became the first straw that overwhelmed Wu Qinfeng.

Everything that seemed absurd and weak was now reasonable in the eyes of everyone. How did Peng Qingying get the position of governor of Xizhou? Maxia also became the focus of doubt. After all, Tian Sidao had been infected in bed one after another, and he had been observing it for a long time.

It was just the chiefs of various tribes. The small number of military generals present followed Tian Sidao to fight in the east and west, so they all demanded severe punishment for the rebellious son Peng Qingying indignation. How could Wu Qinfeng sit and wait for death? Seeing Wu Qinfeng's order to take action, he drew his sword and started fighting...

Fortunately, the loyal Qin brothers in Xizhou City were not yet loyal, and they heard the news that they led the staff to come to rescue him. Before paying a huge price, Peng Qingying was able to escape with her eldest sister Peng Shichou.

There were dangers all the way, and Wu Qinfeng always thought that Xizhou City was clearly guarding the city, how did Peng Shiyu retreat to the city, why was the strict guards of the governor's mansion so broken? Why were the soldiers who were guarding the city moved? It was not until the appearance of Tian Hongyou last night that Peng Qingying finally realized it.

My "good brother" and brother-in-law, Hiroyuki Shimatsuki, has the dual responsibilities of guarding the city and guarding the mansion. Although I am Peng Shiyu's adopted son, Wu Qinfeng always ridiculously regards him as a close friend. If Hiroyuki appeared last night, I'm afraid he would understand until he died...
