Turbulent Times Chapter 1177: Terrible guess
Yu Wenhuaji finally ran away. Wang Junlin was worried that there would be an ambush, so he didn't dare to chase far away, so he returned with his men, joined Luo Shixin who was waiting where he was, and rested there.
"My lord, our army killed 443 people and injured 341 people." Luo Shixin came to report, with murderous intent on his face.
"How many corpses did the enemy leave behind?" Wang Junlin's expression had returned to calm, but his eyes were cold and frightening.
"Report to my lord, the enemy left behind 3,453 corpses." Luo Shixin replied quickly, with even more murderous intent.
"Take the time to treat our people, and cut off the heads of these more than 3,000 enemies, let all our people hang on the horses, and take them to Luoyang together. After arriving in Luoyang, we will take revenge." Jun Lin said lightly.

At the same time, in front of the south gate of Luoyang City, a grand welcome and prisoner offering ceremony had already been held. All the officials from the three provinces and six ministries came. At a glance, more than half of the people who were able to go to court at the court meeting came, and even in the attic next to the city gate, Yu Wenshu, Su Wei, Dugu Changsu, Yu Shiji, Pei Shiju, etc. The important ministers are also resting inside, and all kinds of cumbersome and exaggerated arrangements have been made inside and outside the city.
At this time, under the **** of two hundred cavalry, the guard of honor of the crown prince Yang Hao also came to the east gate from the direction of the imperial city in the city. In the attic like spring. Everyone in the attic on the second floor watched Yang Hao enter the attic, and hurriedly got up and greeted him.
Yang Wei waved his hands carelessly and said, "You are fair."
Then while sitting down, he said: "Father really is, I don't know if Wang Junlin can still come, but insisting on letting me come too, it is simply delaying my learning the art of governing the country."
Everyone frowned slightly, Yu Shiji and Pei Shiju looked worried, thinking that if such a prince became the emperor, it would really make people feel insecure!
Dugu Changsu snorted softly in anger, Yang Wei didn't dare to offend this uncle, and pretended not to hear, the expressions of the two old foxes Yu Wenshu and Su Wei didn't change at all, but what was going on in their hearts I don't know if I think about it.

Wang Junlin watched Luo Shixin leading the people beheading their heads silently, turning the corpses into headless corpses. His face was calm, but his mind was full of thoughts.
Although he expected that his enemies in Luoyang City would definitely regard his return to the capital as the last chance to kill him, he did not expect the other party to be so unscrupulous.
And I still overestimated Yang Guang's control over the court and the army... I always thought that even if my enemy wanted to assassinate him, it would be impossible to dispatch troops near the capital.
10,000 people were ambushed less than forty miles away from the capital, even if they were broken up into pieces at night and delivered in batches, they were hidden in a hidden place. But 10,000 people, 10,000 war horses, and 10,000 cavalry need a lot of food and grass these days. The government soldiers responsible for the safety of the four fields in Kyoto didn't realize it at all?
This is naturally impossible, but with the joint efforts of Empress Xiao, Crown Prince Yang Wei, Yu Wenshu and Yang Su, it is not difficult to make the soldiers of the capital Siye remain indifferent or pretend to be deaf and dumb.
But the thing that chills Wang Junlin the most is why the other party can calculate the time of his return to the capital so accurately. You must know that if they want to kill him, these troops will never dare to lie in ambush near the capital for too long. Unless they can accurately know the time when they pass by here.
What's even more frightening is that even though it's close to the capital, Wang Junlin asked himself that he didn't relax his vigilance. For a long time, according to Wang Junlin's instructions, Xu Jingzong and Shen Guang had been watching every move of his enemies. The spies of the Wei Mansion did not find anything abnormal...
Countless questions flooded Wang Junlin's mind, especially the questions and guesses arising from a certain aspect made him feel cold all over.

"My lord, do we still have to go to Luoyang City?" Zhang Tiangang looked stern and resolute, and whispered in Wang Junlin's ear. He had been with Wang Junlin for a long time, and Wang Junlin did not hide many things from him. . So he always spoke directly in front of Wang Junlin, and now he continued to say in a deep voice: "According to the regulations, Luo Shixin and the others will definitely not be able to enter the city.
Leading these four hundred people into Luoyang City with the Lord, if the emperor wants to kill the Lord, or let some people kill the Lord, if the enemy sends out troops again, it will be difficult to escape. "
Wang Junlin was silent, and took a look at the collection of more than four hundred corpses of his subordinates. Luo Shixin and others who were brought by his subordinates knew that although the possibility Zhang Tiangang said was unlikely, it was not impossible.
It is absolutely impossible for Shen Guang to have a problem, but Xu Jingzong... If there is a problem, it is not impossible to keep Shen Guang in the dark with his mind.
And if something really went wrong with Xu Jingzong, then this prisoner offering ceremony is likely to be a trap. Although I have prepared a lot of backhands, anything is possible. Sometimes no matter how powerful a person is, he will die It was only an instant thing, and even if he could escape, Luo Shixin, Zhang Tiangang and others might not be spared.
Wang Junlin's face was changing, and at this moment, a rush of horseshoes sounded like a shower from outside the valley, and the horse neighed. In the blink of an eye, a group of about 200 cavalrymen drove into the valley. These cavalrymen were well-armoured, with swords and guns at their sides, full of iron and blood. They were the most elite hundred-fighting cavalry of the Sui Dynasty.
Many people at Wang Junlin's side looked condensed. At this time, a group of elite cavalry from the Sui Dynasty came. They had just experienced an army ambush, and no one would believe it.
But Wang Junlin immediately saw the general leading the team at a distance where others could not see the faces of these cavalry clearly.
The leading man was a handsome young man in his early twenties, with a sword on his waist and a pair of silver hammers straddling his back, but his expression was a bit puzzled and austere. Accident.
When he saw the corpses all over the mountains and valleys, the young general's awe-inspiring expression was filled with infinite shock and hidden anger in addition to being puzzled.
The general raised his right fist and shouted loudly: "Be alert."
The two hundred cavalrymen behind him immediately became vigilant, watching everything in the valley.
The man drove into the valley with a gloomy expression, and when he saw Wang Junlin sitting beside the carriage, he was taken aback, jumped off the horse, strode forward, and said with surprise, "Brother Wang, long time no see."
