Li Shi Min looked at Liu Heita's corpse on the ground.
He confirmed that the corpse on the ground was Liu Heita.
Even though his face was tense, he could not hide the joy in his eyes.
Although the Handong Army had fifty thousand soldiers, to Li Shiming or the Great Tang, these fifty thousand soldiers were nothing.
Only Liu Heita was Li Shimin's biggest threat.
He had thought that Liu Heita had already fled to the Turks and that Li Shimin was having a headache over this, but he hadn't expected Luo Shixin to bring Liu Heita's corpse.
This was simply the joy of a windfall.
Li Shi Min clenched his fists tightly.
Then, he shouted,"Alright!"
Then, he rushed over and hugged Luo Shixin.
"Shixin, Shixin, you are truly my lucky general. On behalf of the people of Hebei and the people of the Great Tang, I must thank you.”
Li Shi Min was so excited that his entire body was trembling.
"Your Highness, there is no need to be so agitated. Shixin is a general of the Tang Dynasty. This is what Shixin should do.”
Li Shi Min let go of Luo Shi Xin and patted his shoulder heavily.
"Shixin, where did you catch Liu Heita?”Li Shi Min asked.
"Your Highness, long before the battle began, I was certain that Liu Heita would abandon the Handong Army and flee after seeing that the situation was hopeless. Thus, I had already set up an ambush where he would pass through, waiting for him to fall for it.”Luo Shixin said.
"Do you mean that you had already calculated this matter half a month ago?”Li Shi Min asked.
Luo Shixin nodded.
"Liu Heita is a crafty person, it's impossible for him not to leave a way out for himself. That was why I was able to kill him in one fell swoop.”Luo Shixin said.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Li Shi Min said 'good' three times in a row, but he still couldn't hide the joy in his heart.
Cheng Yaojin walked over and punched Luo Shixin's chest.
"Luo Shixin, you didn't even call your elder brother for such a great contribution. You actually enjoyed it alone.”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Although Cheng Yaojin said so, everyone knew that Cheng Yaojin had no intention of snatching credit from Luo Shixin. He was purely happy for Luo Shixin.
Although the Tang generals present were not as close to Luo Shixin as Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin, they were still happy for Luo Shixin, for the Great Tang, and for Li Shiming.
After all, Li Shi Min's biggest worry, Liu Heita, had been killed.
Although most people were happy, there was one person who was not happy at all. On the contrary, he was a little angry.
This person was Wang Junkuo, the former garrison general of Ming Shui City.
Wang Junkuo was lonely and poor since childhood. He made a living by selling horses. His character was bad and he often stole. The villagers were worried. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Wang Junkuo planned to gather soldiers and horses to steal, but his uncle did not agree. Wang Junkuo then framed his neighbor for having an affair with his aunt, killed his neighbor with his uncle, and fled the Jianghu from then on.
In the fifth year of Wude, Liu Heita claimed to be the king of Handong, and Li Quhuo surrendered to the Tang army in Mingshui. Wang Junkuo was ordered to lead the cavalry into the city and defend the city with Li Quhuo. Later, Liu Heita besieged Mingshui, and Li Shimin's three reinforcements failed. Li Shimin was worried that Wang Junkuo could not hold Mingshui, so he climbed the high slope in the south of the city and ordered Wang Junkuo to break through with flag signals. At the same time, he ordered Luo Shixin, the general manager of the march, to lead 200 soldiers into the city to hold the city on his behalf.
Originally, this was a matter that could not be blamed. However, Wang Junkuo knew that he would not be able to hold on to the city, so he actually transferred all the thousands of soldiers from the city.
That was why Luo Shixin had only 200 soldiers to face the Handong Army, which outnumbered him by a hundred times. If not for Luo Shixin's sudden transmigration and the system, he would have died in a bloody battle for eight days and eight nights, just like in history.
Now, not only did Luo Shixin defend Mingshui City, but he had also defeated the Handong Army in one fell swoop. In the end, he had even killed Liu Heita. In the battle of Mingshui, this huge credit had instantly fallen onto Luo Shixin's head.
Wang Junkuo was naturally unhappy. He thought to himself," If I, Luo Shixin, hadn't come to guard Mingshui City, the credit for the battle at Mingshui City would never have fallen to you."
The credit for the battle at Mingshui should belong to me, Wang Junkuo.
Luo Shixin, I, Wang Junkuo, have formed a feud with you.
Wang Junkuo gritted his teeth and looked at Luo Shixin, his eyes full of malice.
Luo Shixin also felt something strange. He turned his head and looked at Wang Junkuo. Wang Junkuo's heart trembled and he quickly lowered his head.
Although he lowered his head quickly, Luo Shixin could still see the malice in his eyes.
Luo Shixin's pupils shrank, and a chill rose from his body.
Although Wang Junkuo couldn't compare to Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin, Luo Shixin knew him very well.
This person was narrow-minded by nature and was a true villain.
In history, Wang Junkuo had betrayed Tang more than once.
After the incident at Xuanwu Gate, he instigated Li Yuan, King of Lujiang, to rebel and then killed him, claiming to be a hero in quelling the rebellion.
In the first year of Zhenguan, he entered the court as an official. He was arrogant and indulgent, and he violated the law. He was uneasy in his heart. He fled to Weinan, killed the post officer, and defected to the Turks.
This person was a treacherous villain from the inside out.
Immediately, Luo Shixin made a decision in his heart. He would definitely find an opportunity to get rid of such a treacherous person in the future.
It could also be considered as revenge for his predecessor, Luo Shixin, who should have been killed in a bloody battle for eight days and eight nights.
Although he couldn't kill Wang Junkuo now, Luo Shixin didn't plan to let him go. At least he had to make him suffer a little.
Luo Shixin stepped in front of Wang Junkuo.
"Shixin has often heard General Wang talk about General Wang's unrivalled martial arts. Shixin would like to ask for advice, may I?”Luo Shixin said.
Wang Junkuo's expression changed drastically.
