I can sign in in Datang

Chapter 248

Chapter 248

The king's flag of Gaochang Kingdom fell slowly and fell into the blood.

"Boom!" The gate of Gaochang King City was overwhelmed, and it finally broke after holding on for more than half an hour.

"The city gate is broken, go!"

Seeing the opening of the city gate, Tang Jun's morale was high, and he rushed into the city.

"Duke, you use your troops like a god. No one in the Tang Dynasty can compare to defeating the king's city in one battle." Hou Qing flattered.

Hou Junji scolded: "Shut up, there are countless talented people in Tang Dynasty, what nonsense!"

Although it was a scolding, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Back then Li Jing refused to teach him the art of war, so he begged Li Shimin many times, but in the end Li Jing was willing to teach him because of Li Shimin's face.

Even so, he still kept a hand on him. He complained to Li Shimin, and Li Jing also accused him of treason.

But his status was already lower than that of Li Jing, and Li Jing didn't participate in the Xuanwu Gate Change, so he thought he could overwhelm Li Jing.

Who would have thought that Li Jing's success in destroying the Eastern Turks would increase his momentum, and he would be honored as the god of war by the people.

Now that he also has the merit of destroying the country, after returning, he may not be able to surpass Li Jing.

Hou Qing has been with Hou Junji for many years, so of course he knows Hou Junji's character, and said with a smile: "The Duke is right, he is a little bitch!"

Hou Junji didn't continue to blame Hou Qing and said, "Let's go to the city."

Qu Wentai had changed into the clothes of ordinary people, and had just left the palace secretly when he heard that the city was broken.

"My lord, what should we do now?" the head servant asked anxiously.

"Snapped!"

Qu Wentai slapped him and said, "Do you want to kill Gu...kill me?"

"Yes, yes, a small slip of the tongue!" The head servant covered his face, with a hint of jealousy in his eyes.

Gaochang is going to be destroyed, and you are still considered a king. Since you are not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous.

Qu Wentai asked, "How about the other city gates?"

"Hui Da..." Seeing Qu Wentai's cannibalism, the head servant quickly changed his words: "Master Hui, the other city gates are also in danger, and now we can't get out at all. Why don't you find a place to hide and find a place to hide?" Run again if you have the chance."

Qu Wentai was also in a state of confusion at this time, and when he heard the words of the chief servant, he nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, yes, yes!"

……

Hou Junji walked into the palace hall, looked at a group of trembling women and children, went directly to the throne and sat down, and asked indifferently: "Which of you is Princess Gaochang?"

Seeing Hou Junji sitting on the throne, Qibi Heli's eyes flashed and he didn't speak.

A very attractive woman in the crowd came out and said: "I am Princess Gaochang. I heard that the Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette. The general will not embarrass us women and children."

Hou Junji was noncommittal and asked, "Where is King Gaochang?"

Princess Gaochang said: "I don't know where the king is."

"Oh? Come and pass on an order. If King Gaochang can't be found before dawn tomorrow, the city will be slaughtered!" Hou Junji said coldly.

Surrounding the city on all sides, he didn't believe that Qu Wentai could escape, and he must still be inside the city now.

When Tang Jun first arrived, he was not familiar with Gaochang Royal City at all.

He believed that under the fear of death, someone would confess to Qu Wentai.

Qi Bi He Li looked at Hou Junji in surprise.

Princess Gaochang turned pale, and scolded: "Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

Hou Junji ignored Princess Gaochang and looked at Hou Qing.

"Yes!" Hou Qing bowed and left the hall.

Seeing this, Princess Gaochang slumped on the ground.

Hou Qing didn't leave for long, and came back in a hurry.

Hou Junji frowned, and asked, "What happened?"

"Duke, the king of Gaochang has been captured." Hou Qing said.

Hou Junji frowned, and said in surprise, "What's going on?"

It should be too late for the news to spread at this time, how could someone catch it?

Hou Qing said: "Duke Hui, the chief servant next to King Gaochang has reported his hiding place, and General Xue has already arrested him."

Hou Junji said suspiciously, "Has it been verified?"

"Mr. Hui, General Xue has already verified that it is indeed the king of Gaochang. Do you need to bring him here?" Hou Qing asked.

Hou Junji shook his head and said, "Since it's confirmed, there's nothing to see."

"Pass down the order, there is no military regulation today, and it will stop tomorrow morning." Hou Junji said.

"Yes!" Hou Qing replied.

Hou Junji looked at Qibi Heli, and said with a smile: "Qibi Heli, there are so many beauties here, you can choose a few too."

"This..." Qibi Heli was a little embarrassed.

Anyway, these women belong to King Gochang.

If they return to Chang'an, it is understandable that Li Shimin will reward them.

But if you make your own claims in private, if you are known, you will be in trouble.

Hou Junji had a murderous look in his eyes, and said with a smile, "Could it be that Qibi Heli doesn't like it?"

Qibi He Li quickly said: "I like it, I like it. Thank you, Chief Manager."

Li Shimin knew that if he chose, he would be punished at most. If he didn't choose, he might not even be able to return to Chang'an.

Hou Junji laughed, and said, "If you like it, choose a few more."

Qi Bi He Li didn't choose carefully, but picked two at random, and left the hall with them.

Hou Junji sized up Princess Gaochang presumptuously.

Sensing Hou Junji's gaze, Princess Gaochang took a trembling step back and said, "You...what do you want to do?"

Hou Junji ignored Concubine Gaochang, and said to the guards outside the palace: "Take everyone out except Concubine Wang."

"Yes!"

The soldiers rushed in like wolves and tigers, and took all the women and children out.Finally, the door of the main hall was closed.

Half an hour later, Hou Junji pushed open the door of the main hall and walked out.

"Duke!" Hou Qing sneaked a glance into the hall, saw Princess Gaochang lying on the ground with disheveled clothes, and there were many bloodstains on the ground, so she quickly looked away.

Hou Junji lifted his clothes, and said: "Princess Gaochang is unwilling to be a perisher, she has already committed suicide, let's bury her!"

"Yes!"

……

"General, something serious happened." Cheng Chumo hurriedly ran to Lin Xuan's tent, not even caring about etiquette.

Lin Xuan asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"General, after Hou Junji enters the city..." Cheng Chumo's face was livid, and he seemed to have some scruples after speaking.

Lin Xuan stood up in shock and said, "Did he order the massacre of the city?"

It shouldn't be, Hou Junji did not massacre the city in history.

Even if it is to cover up, it is impossible for future generations not to know.

Li Shimin couldn't cover up the change in Xuanwumen, so why did Hou Junji cover it up?

Cheng Chumo shook his head quickly and said, "No."

"Then tell me, what happened?" Lin Xuan asked.

Cheng Chumo said: "He ordered a night of carnival."

Isn't this just plundering?

Lin Xuan was so shocked by the news that he couldn't recover for a long time.

What is the difference between this and the little devils of later generations?

In history, such things as looting and massacring cities have happened many times.

But it usually only appears when the world is in chaos.

Cheng Chumo said, "General, what should we do now?"

How to do?

How do I know what to do.

Hou Junji dared to issue this order, so he never thought of hiding it. It was useless for him to threaten him with this matter.

Could it be possible to send troops to stop it?

Ten thousand versus twenty thousand, it doesn't matter whether they fight or not, if there is a civil strife in the Tang army, they may all have to explain it here.

Lin Xuan shook his head sadly: "I can't do anything about it."

He also wanted to stop it, but there was no way.

"But if this matter gets out, it will have a great impact on Datang's reputation." Cheng Chumo said with some concern.

Lin Xuan looked at Cheng Chumo in surprise, and for a long time Cheng Chumo was worried about the impact of military looting on Datang.

Essentially, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this matter, no wonder Hou Junji dared to issue this order.

He has the merits of destroying Gaochang, Li Shimin will not punish him for this incident at all, at most it will be a small punishment and a big punishment.

No wonder he has nothing to fear.

"General, why do you look at me like this?" Cheng Chumo asked strangely.

Lin Xuan shook his head, and said, "Just pretend you don't know about this matter, and pass down the order that you are not allowed to discuss this matter in private."

"Should we collect evidence and go back and sue him?" Cheng Chumo suggested.

Lin Xuan shook his head and said, "No need, we can't hide this matter at all. Someone will impeach him, so we don't need to worry about it."
