Hearing Du Qi's words, Li Shimin looked up at Hou Junji not far away, with a serious look in his eyes. This time Hou Junji was under Du Qi's command, and he was never abused, beaten, or even withheld food. It's a pity that the current Hou Junji is under tremendous pressure.
It was not the first time he was captured by Du Qi, nor was it the first time he was defeated by Du Qi, it was the second time he became a prisoner.
A general who was defeated twice by the same enemy and became a prisoner was a stain that could never be washed away for a noble person like Hou Junji. So much so that Hou Junji couldn't eat or sleep every day, and he lost more than ten catties in a short period of time. He looked much thinner, and the cheekbones on both sides of his cheeks were slightly prominent.
Even Hou Junji's temples were already grizzled, making him look quite old.
Li Shimin is a nostalgic person.
Even though he was angry at Hou Junji's incompetence in his heart, he was angry at Hou Junji's lack of success and failure. But at this moment, seeing the thin and thin clothes, the anger in Li Shimin's heart gradually dissipated, and finally only a sigh was left.
Du Qi saw Li Shimin's emotional expression, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Hou Junji has been quite decadent during this time, unable to eat and sleep well. After all, he was worried that he would be a captive and would be abandoned by you. How about you?" What about Hou Junji?"
Li Shimin frowned.
Du Qi was clearly digging a hole for him, deliberately trying to embarrass him. Especially when he saw Du Qi's smile that was not a smile, Li Shimin knew in his heart that Du Qi was playing tricks. Li Shimin is not a soft-hearted person, he said: "Du Qi, I will save Hou Junji. But I did not save Hou Junji through concessions, but through this battle. In a single battle, I will defeat your army. You must know that you are so arrogant and domineering, and you will definitely lose."
Du Qi shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, don't you say something like this against your will? You have to find a reason to make yourself a righteous party, why bother? You want to start a war and say it directly. It's morally meaningless. I still As the old saying goes, if Hou Junji hadn¡¯t arranged for people to ambush me, this scene would not have happened. From the beginning to the end, I have never targeted Datang, on the contrary, Datang regards me as a thorn in his side.¡±
Li Shimin said: "Du Qi, there is actually no point in debating. You have always been the best at speaking out. But in this battle, the victory will not be based on the advantage of speaking. In the end, you have to rely on your strength to speak."
Du Qidao: "It seems that your majesty is not going to reason with me if you say you can't win. My majesty, you never thought that you bullied me like this. When I am powerful, I will counterattack Datang. Is it? I do have feelings for Datang, because that is the place where I was born and raised, and it is the place that my parents dream about."
"Moreover, it is also the root of countless people who have left Datang. And in Datang, there are too many people I care about, so I don't want to start a war with Datang, and I don't want to attack Datang."
"Even so, my patience is limited."
Du Qi said: "The Datang side has targeted me again and again, with the intention of destroying my country of Xia. You said, how can this make me feel a sense of belonging, and how can I not hate Datang?"
Li Shimin's heart felt a little touched when he heard the words, but this little touch changed the next moment. His heart became firm at once, he could not be bewitched by Du Qi, nor would he be influenced by Du Qi.
This battle is imperative.
Li Shimin took a deep breath and continued: "Du Qi, I have already said that the power of words is useless. To be honest, when your Du Qi's Xia Kingdom is really powerful, even if you don't do anything, then you are in your position. The people below will push you forward. You don¡¯t want to be an enemy of Datang, but there are countless people who want to be an enemy of Datang. People are in high positions and cannot help themselves. Many of your words are actually meaningless. That is, to deceive ignorant people."
Du Qi said: "Your Majesty, I can't guarantee too much. What I can guarantee is that as long as the Great Tang never targets me, my Xia country's soldiers will not target the Great Tang. Because all the way to the west, there are too many countries , I can expand westward all the way. Of course, His Majesty definitely doesn¡¯t believe it, so it doesn¡¯t make much sense.¡±
After a pause, Du Qi filled a glass of wine again and said, "Your Majesty, I will toast you with another glass of wine. Next, you and I will do our best to defeat each other."
Li Shimin said: "Please!"
As he spoke, Li Shimin also picked up the wine bottle, raised his head and drank it down.
Du Qi threw away the wine bottle, got up and walked to Hou Junji's side, and said with a smile, "Hou Junji, have you seen His Majesty's reaction? You are an outcast now, not worth mentioning."
"Say, should I kill you?"
?There was killing intent in Du Qi's eyes.
By this time, Hou Junji was useless, because the war between the two sides was inevitable. Even if peace talks are required after a fight, it is based on the fact that one party is willing to negotiate peace and the other party is unable to parry.
Li Shimin was also walking back at this moment. He had just taken a few steps away when he heard Du Qi's words clearly, turned around and stared at Du Qi coldly, and said, "Du Erlang, if you dare to hurt Hou Junji, I and you I promise not to give up."
Du Qi turned around and said: "Your Majesty brought troops to kill me, and we are already immortal, so why should we say such cruel words? It's meaningless. Your Majesty is unwilling to retreat, and Hou Junji has only one ending, only one death!"
Li Shimin was taken aback.
The expression on his face became more dignified.
At this moment, Hou Junji shouted: "Your Majesty, I have no regrets in my death. I was defeated twice and captured twice. I have lost all the face of Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty. Now , I would rather die than embarrass Your Majesty. Please don't be sad because of my death, I am willing to die."
Hou Junji has already looked away, because he understands Li Shimin's nature, it cannot be because he is disregarding the overall situation. Hou Junji knew that he was bound to die, so he took the initiative to ask for death, and said again: "Your Majesty, please take care of my family and keep them safe."
Hearing this, Li Shimin suddenly felt a little soft-hearted in his heart at this moment, and wanted to agree to Du Qi's conditions first in exchange for Hou Junji's life, but such thoughts were fleeting, and he was suppressed in his heart. He is the emperor of the Great Tang, and the interests of the Great Tang should prevail, and it is impossible to make concessions for the sake of Hou Junji.
Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "Hou Junji, I will protect your family so that you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Hou Junji shouted.
At this moment, Hou Junji had a smile on his face. He turned to look at Du Qi and said, "Du Qi, come on, you kill me! Even if I die, why should I be afraid? If you kill me now, Your Majesty will die!" One day he will avenge me."
He is afraid of death!
He doesn't want to die!
But at this point, he has no choice.
Du Qi clicked his tongue and said: "What a scene of friendship between monarch and minister is really touching! It's a pity that such friendship between monarch and minister is mixed with too many interests. The emperor would rather sacrifice Hou Junji than make concessions for the benefit of Tang Dynasty .Hou Junji would rather die for his family. Alas, it is really touching."
"If I don't agree with this kind of thing that you love and I want, wouldn't it seem that this king is too ruthless. Your Majesty, I will help you and Hou Junji"
Du Qi turned around and walked back. He walked in front of Hou Junji and said, "Come here, kill Hou Junji."
With an order, the soldiers at Hou Junji's side moved quickly.
Swing out with one knife.
With a squeak, the blade slashed across Hou Junji's neck. After the slash, under the impact of blood, Hou Junji's neck immediately flew up, drew an arc in the air, and then fell to the ground with a plop.
The thin body fell to the ground randomly.
Li Shimin watched Hou Junji being killed, clenched his fists, then looked at Du Qi's leaving back, gritted his teeth and said: "Du Qi, today you killed my beloved general, and I will definitely pay for it with blood."
After Du Qi heard it, he paused for a while and said, "I am waiting for His Majesty's arrival."
After finishing speaking, Du Qi returned to the army without looking back.
Du Qi didn't regret killing Hou Junji at all.
In fact, at the beginning, Du Qi really had no intention of killing Hou Junji, but was just planning to fight a good offensive and defensive battle with Li Shimin in Guazhou City, and finally everyone made peace. Du Qi didn't expect that Li Shimin directly attacked the interior of the Xia Kingdom, pretending to put Du Qi to death. Under this premise, Du Qi naturally retaliated with an eye.
He Du Qi, not afraid of threats.
He, Du Qi, is not afraid of Li Shimin.
Li Shimin wants to fight, and he will accompany him to the end. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
