"This old man … who this old man is isn't important. What is important is that this old man has intercepted an urgent report. This matter concerns the life and death of His Highness King Wei and the several hundred thousand people of Taiyuan City. General, please quickly open the gates and do not delay this important military mission!"
Outside the western gate of Taiyuan City, the burly man dressed in coarse brown robes looked up at the captain of the Bing Province Barracks and loudly shouted.
"This matter concerns the life and death of His Highness King Wei and the several hundred thousand people of Taiyuan City? Heh! What bold words! "
The captain had originally believed that this old man had important information to report, but after hearing the old man's words, he snorted derisively.
Taiyuan City was the largest city in the north of the Great Tang. Its walls were tall and thick, and the city had tens of thousands of elite soldiers. Most importantly, Taiyuan City was not on the border and was surrounded by other provinces and counties. If Taiyuan City encountered an emergency, the soldiers of the other provinces and counties would rush to the rescue. In these circumstances, the captain truly did not believe that anyone could threaten the lives of the several hundred thousand people of Taiyuan City!
"You should go back! In consideration of your age, this general will not lower himself to your level! If you continue to shout and pester endlessly, don't blame this general for having you arrested and charged with the crime of colluding with the enemy! "
The lieutenant on the city gate tower had a cold expression as he pointed at the old man below the city and shouted.
"Colluding with the enemy? When did this old man collude with the enemy? Let this old man into the city and take this old man to see His Highness King Wei. At that time, His Highness will judge whether or not this old man has colluded with the enemy! "
Being accused of colluding with the enemy for no reason, the old man was instantly enraged. However, he also understood what was the most important thing at this time, so he resisted the urge to scold and shouted at the lieutenant.
"Hmph! Is His Highness someone you can see just because you want to? Don't make so much noise. Do you believe that this general won't have you arrested? "
The captain coldly said.
Although his words were somewhat impolite, there was actually nothing wrong with them. Not to mention that the situation in the city was urgent, even if it was during normal times, he couldn't just casually bring someone to see Li Tai just because they said that they had important matters to discuss, right? If the other party wanted to harm Li Tai, he wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility!
Therefore, he only wanted to scare the old man and drive him away. He didn't want to cause any more trouble!
The old man was not afraid at all. He raised his head and rebuked angrily, "I do have urgent information to report to King Wei. If you don't believe me, then arrest me. If I delay the military mission, will His Highness spare you? How can the hundreds of thousands of people in Taiyuan City spare you? "
Seeing that the old man wasn't scared away by him and instead refused to give up, he was a little angry and said, "Fine! Good! Men, arrest this man and bring him to the Provincial Governor's Office for him to deal with! "
"Lieutenant, this …"
The soldier beside the commandant of the city gate tower was somewhat hesitant. After all, if the old man really had important information and they captured him, then they would be in deep trouble!
"What? Are you not going to listen to me? This was a military order! Take him down! "
The commandant glared at him, and the soldier didn't dare to say anything else. He quickly cupped his fists and said, "Understood!"
Not long after, the city gate opened and four or five soldiers came out and came to the old man. The old man glared at them and a fierce aura spread out. Everyone couldn't help but be surprised. They didn't expect this old man to be a martial artist!
