Chapter 71: Wang Jing's Conspiracy
Tuli and Jie Li, the two khans, could not find Li Haochen's traces and were afraid that they had some conspiracy, so they temporarily set up camp and then sent a visitor to investigate.
At this time, Li Haochen had already assembled a 5,000 camp under Chang'an City and the Weishui River. The number of people was counted. Only a few hundred people were injured and no deaths were killed. Li Haochen could have fulfilled his promise and made great contributions safely.
Li Haochen asked Zhang Han to lead the team to cross the river through the bridge on the Wei River, and he broke the back with Wang Jing. After three hours, the team had basically passed the Wei River. Li Haochen felt relieved. After tomorrow morning, even if he completed Li Jing's general order and delayed the Turkic army for five days, he was finally in danger.
It was dawn in two hours. Now only Li Haochen and Wang Jing were left, as well as Lu Bingting and Lu Gang and a dozen soldiers, who had not crossed the Wei River yet. What Li Haochen thought was that after dawn, several people would cross the river again. Of course, even if there was any emergency, he could evacuate quickly. The bridge above the Wei River was very narrow, and at most three people could pass side by side. That was really a good place where one man was the pass and ten thousand men could not open. In this case, even if the Turkic army arrived, he would not do anything to him.
Thinking of this, Li Haochen was very proud at this moment. At this moment, Wang Jing walked to him and said, "General, can you hold your back? I have something to talk to you alone!"
Li Haochen looked at Wang Jing with some curiosity when he heard this, and then thought that he would have made contributions to the suspicion of military strategy. Besides, the enemy should be resolved rather than to make a fortune. Li Haochen asked Lu Bingting and Lu Gang to retreat, and then marched forward with Wang Jing for dozens of meters.
Li Haochen stopped and asked, "Wang Jing, let's talk about anything here!"
Wang Jing turned his head, his face was cold, and in the darkness, he looked particularly gloomy and terrifying with the light of the torch. Li Haochen subconsciously stepped back two steps: "Wang Jing, what do you mean?"
Wang Jing suddenly laughed wildly and said, "Li Haochen, you stole my position, killed my brother, and humiliated me. What should you do if you think I should do?"
Li Haochen finally understood that Wang Jing had let him come out, but he was not kind-hearted. He believed that Wang Jing must have been prepared and there must be an ambush around him, but Li Haochen didn't want to sit and wait for death and said, "Wang Jing, do you dare to kill me? You must know that I am a general in the army. If you kill me, you may not be able to submit a job after you go back!"
After hearing his words, Wang Jing not only did not fear at all, but instead snorted coldly: "Li Haochen, you are really smart and confused for a lifetime. To be honest, I, Mr. Wang, admire the tactics used in the Turkic combat. I, Mr. Wang, admire him very much and sighed, but why are you so stupid at this moment? Do you know that these dozen soldiers are my people now. If I kill you and kill your two guards, you will say that you are fighting with the Turkic and will be defeated to death. Do you think I have any way to explain to the court?"
Li Haochen finally realized that it seemed that Wang Jing had already designed it. No wonder. When he was arranging the crossing of the river, this guy would take the initiative to ask for the rear. At that time, Li Haochen really looked at him with appreciation, but he didn't expect that he would stay to take his life.
Li Haochen knew in his heart that this disaster might not be able to escape. After experiencing the war between Xuanwu Gate and the Turkic Republic, Li Haochen was no longer the college student in the 24th century. He had already been tempered to become a truly decisive general. Li Haochen also laughed and applauded: "Deputy General Wang, you are really a good plan and a good plan. I admire you! Then stop talking nonsense, just do it!"
Wang Jing snorted coldly and said, "As you wish, do it!"
I saw that there were a few dozen people standing up suddenly. Li Haochen looked carefully and saw that they were all in night clothes. The people were holding short crossbows. The short crossbow shot out extremely fast at close range and could not avoid them at all. Li Haochen understood that the Wang Jing really did not intend to give him a way out, and he was prepared so well.
Originally, Li Haochen wanted to fight with his own force, but Wang Jing didn't give him this opportunity at all.
Wang Jing smiled sinisterly from the side and said, "Li Haochen, I know you have extraordinary force, but can you avoid this short crossbow shooting at a close range? You should accept your fate! The only thing that blames you for sitting in the position that originally belonged to me!"
As soon as Wang Jing waved his hand, he was about to order these short crossbowmen to shoot. Who knew that at this time, a sudden change occurred.
"General, don't panic! Lu Gang is here again!" As the sound fell, two short crossbowmen had already fallen into a pool of blood.
The only thing was that. After Li Haochen left, Lu Gang found that more than a dozen soldiers in the camp had disappeared. Lu Gang felt that there might be a problem, so he sneaked quietly to the place where Li Haochen and Wang Jing were talking. As Lu Gang expected, Wang Jing was going to kill Li Haochen. Lu Gang walked around behind the short crossbowman and started attacking directly.
Lu Gang's sudden attack made the formation of the short crossbowman mess up. Li Haochen took this opportunity to take two steps forward and grabbed Wang Jing's throat with one hand. Wang Jing's face instantly turned purple because he was stuck in his throat and had difficulty breathing.
Li Haochen shouted: "Let them all stop!"
Wang Jing dared not disagree at this moment, and said with difficulty: "Stop...hands, stop!" As Wang Jing finished speaking, the crossbowmen were confiscated by Lu Gang.
At this time, Wang Jing said with difficulty: "General... Army, I did what you said.... I was wrong. Please go around the Wei Shi once!" At this time, no one noticed that Wang Jing had an extra dagger in his hand. The dagger was ink black as a whole, and it was indeed not easy to be discovered in the dark night.
Li Haochen snorted coldly and said, "Do you think I can let you go?"
Wang Jing listened to Li Haochen's words, and his expression was timid just now, and he became very cold and said, "Then you go and die!" As he said that, the dagger in his hand stabbed Li Haochen.
It was too late when Li Haochen discovered something was wrong. At this critical moment, Li Haochen was knocked away by a huge force, and then he heard a "Puchi!" and a painful moan. After Li Haochen got up from the ground, he found that there was a person who was lying in the position he was just now, with a dagger inserted into his body. Li Haochen quickly took two steps forward and looked at it. It turned out that Lu Pingting and Lu Gang were coming together, but she saw that the overall situation was settled, so she did not come out. After that, she saw Wang Jing take out the dagger and rushed out and saved Li Haochen's life at a critical moment.
Li Haochen kicked Wang Jing out with anger, and quickly picked up Lu Bingting and said, "You... how could you... be here?" Li Haochen was so excited that he didn't speak very easily.
Lu Pingting looked at Li Haochen with a charming smile and said, "Haochen...brother, Pingting is...is still useful here! It's not just about making trouble!"
