Chapter 109: Undercurrents are surging

Outside Zhongmu City, several soldiers of the Qin army shouted loudly: "Listen to the people in the city, the general of our army has a saying: Wait for the city to open and surrender within one day." Otherwise, the day the city is broken will be the time when the city is slaughtered. ”

The words were repeated three times, and the defenders of Zhongmu City and the people in the city also heard it, and now it was noon, and they still had half a day and a night.

The soldiers defending the city hurriedly went to report the matter to Liu Jiang, the general who defended the city, and Liu Jiang said with a gloomy face: "You go and tell the Qin thief that unless I die, it is impossible." ”

The soldiers left, and the people in the city also heard the shouts of the Qin army, just like frightened birds, they no longer wanted to suffer this long torment, let alone become the unjust soul of the Qin army's saber tomorrow.

Three cities had already become dead cities, and they didn't want Zhongmu City to become the fourth, in which case they would also become a corpse with no one to restrain them.

When death comes, there are a few people who can really face it calmly.

Hundreds of people went to the city lord's mansion and begged Kaesong to surrender, but they became the vanguard of the Qin army.

Even if he knew that the cities south of Zhangshui had been abandoned by Zhao State, he also had the heart of repaying the country with death, and the people gathered in the city lord's mansion, and he sent people to disperse.

The people of Zhongmu City spent the day in this panic.

At night, in a wine shop in the south of Zhongmu City, in the secret room, several figures were gathering.

There was a fat man in a gray robe who was Liao Xing, the treasurer of heaven and earth, and he got up and said: "Everyone, now that the city gate is blocked, we can't get out, if we don't open the city and surrender, we will not escape the doom tomorrow." Do you have a way to live?"

One said: "Qian Yun and Liu Jiang are unwilling to surrender, we can't give them a burial, in my opinion, the only way to take the city is to mutiny." If you surrender again, everyone knows that the Killing God Army will kill people without blinking, but as long as we follow our will, we will be able to protect our lives without worry. ”

"As the lieutenant of Zhongmu County, Master Mei has military power in his hands, so he can succeed?" asked the shopkeeper.

Captain Mei sighed and replied: "Old man Qian Yun doesn't trust me at all, it's just a name." ”

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have come to discuss with them, and he would have led someone to arrest Qian Yun and force him to surrender in Kaicheng.

"In fact, you have forgotten that the hearts of the people in Zhongmu City have long been fluctuating, how many people want Kaicheng to surrender, and most of the soldiers defending the city are people from the city, do they want to see their families die tragically. ”

"I have a plan, and if you follow it, you will be able to survive tomorrow. Zhongmu Juncheng got up and said, this person was dressed in blue, polite, and elegant.

One person asked, "What is Xia Juncheng's plan?"

Xia Wenjie said: "First, the people today were expelled by Qian Yun, and they were already dissatisfied in their hearts, and they would do everything in order to survive. Now it's just a lack of leaders. Second, you are all people with status, and there are certain guests and servants in the family, and it should not be a problem to gather 3,000 people, and then take out the money, and then under the drive of money, there will be people who dare to fight and kill, led by a brave person to take the county government and control Qian Yun. Third, let people contact the generals who defend the city, launch a mutiny, control or even kill Liujiang, and control the city defense. ”

"Mr. Xia's high opinion, I admire it, how about handing over the person in charge tonight to Mr. Xia?" said the shopkeeper immediately.

The rest of the people felt very reasonable, and they all agreed: "Please also ask Mr. Xia to take charge." ”

Xia Wenjie said: "Everyone is here to survive, and Jie will no longer shirk." One, there are about 500 guards in the City Lord's Mansion, what do you think of me and Tian Dazhuang leading the servants of your lords to attack the City Lord's Mansion?"

"Yes. ”

Several nobles were very happy, which showed that Xia Wenjie would not play tricks, and he was really thinking about his own life.

Xia Wenjie said again: "Second, the matter of contacting the generals defending the city is in charge of the Meijun Lieutenant, what does the Meijun Lieutenant think?"

Lieutenant Mei said with a smile: "It is most appropriate for me to go to this matter, and it will not arouse Liu Jiang's suspicion." ”

The rest of the people also nodded in agreement, Xia Wenjie's task assignment was very reasonable.

Xia Wenjie said: "Heaven and earth have a great influence in Zhongmu City, how about the people led by the shopkeeper to cooperate with our actions?"

"Well, with your plan, the plan is worry-free. And they rejoiced.

It's already two shifts, and everyone has left the secret room of the wine shop and acted separately, in order to survive, no one dares not to do their best.

City Lord's Mansion, Qian Yun has been sitting in the study for a day, the whole person's face is not good, his Qian family is deeply used by the Zhao kings of the Zhao Kingdom, all of them are in high positions, to his father's generation, although he has talent and political achievements, but the king of Zhao only pays attention to his henchmen, and does not care about outsiders at all.

Zhao Guoqun's ministers felt ridiculous, and all opposed it with silence, but Guo Kai said: "No one opposes it, but the whole country supports it, why should my king worry."

When King Zhao heard this, he was overjoyed, so he used this as a reason to issue a royal letter, and the ministers of the court and the central government had to agree. Then, under Guo Kai's plan, King Zhao abolished the original crown prince Zhao Jia and renamed Zhao Qian, the son of the advocate daughter, as the crown prince.

All the ministers of the court and the central government wrote against it, and the son of Hu Zhannu was the crown prince and the king of Zhao, how absurd it was.

King Zhao insisted on going his own way, abolished the position of prince Zhao Jia, and re-established Zhao Qian as the crown prince.

King Zhao died, the crown prince moved to succeed to the throne, King Zhao moved this person as the crown prince to like women, after the succession no one dared to do whatever he wanted.

Guo Kaiben is Zhao Wangqian's teacher or confidant, and the position of prime minister is none other than him, ranking as the top secretary, and his power is monstrous. Zhao Wangqian even agreed with Guo Kai that "Guo Kai is in charge of all the state affairs of Zhao State, and King Zhao is only in charge of women's affairs." ”

Since then, King Zhao is promiscuous, Handan women are even more deeply affected, Guo Kai in order to make King Zhao addicted to this way, but also sent people to carry a lot of money to the Huns, Donghu to buy beauties, brought back to Zhao to send to the palace, for King Zhao's entertainment. In addition, he secretly bribed people who were proficient in this way to send them to the royal palace.

King Zhao was even more satisfied with Guo Kai, and shouted: "Those who know me, Xiangguo also." ”

King Zhao's extravagance and prostitution, no one knows about the ministers of the court, no matter how he writes to King Zhao, he ignores it, and he sighs deeply when he thinks of these Qian Yun.

Zhao's current countermeasure against the Qin army is to defend the mountains and rivers and deplete the strength of the Qin state, and at the same time send people to ask for help from the other four countries. This is also the reason why the god-killing army attacked so many cities without army rescue, and relied on the defenders of other cities to rescue and deliver food, so the cities south of Zhao Guozhangshui were all scattered sand, fighting separately.

The ferocity of killing the god army, killing the nature, how could Qian Yun not know, but if he was allowed to surrender like this, his loyalty to the monarch did not allow him to do so, but if he did not surrender, the city would be broken tomorrow, and all the 100,000 people in Zhongmu City would die, and he felt guilty and thought that he was too selfish.

On this day, he has been tormented in his heart.

"Father, the child begs to see. Then a voice came from outside the door.

Hearing the voice, Qian Yun came back to his senses and said with an unhappy face: "What are you doing here?"

The person who came was Qian Yun's son Qian Xiang, he never had a good face for this son, mainly because he didn't do his job, he messed with flowers and grass, and he didn't change his life many times, and gradually he didn't care about him anymore.

Qian Xiang came in, and after a salute, he said, "Dare to ask my father what is my father's decision now that the army of the Qin State is besieging the city?"

Qian Yun said coldly: "The old man has his own opinions on this matter, so why worry about it." ”

Qian Xiang said: "Father doesn't think about the 100,000 people in Zhongmu City?"

Qian Yun's eyes were cold, and he said, "What does it matter to me whether they live or die?"

Qian Xiang said: "Since my father is ready to repay the country with death, why did he send my eldest brother out of Zhongmu City before the army besieged the city." ”

"Rebel, what do you mean by this?" Qian Yun said angrily.

"Father, you can dislike me, but I'm also your son, and you never care about my life and death. However, I don't care, do you know why I'm here today?", Qian Xiang said with a smile.

The smile on his face became a little crazy, and the hatred and killing intent in his eyes were undisguised.

"I know, I was born to a concubine, so you don't like me, I admit all this, blame me for my bad life. But you gave my poor mother to be played with, and you know that I was outside the door that night, and her screams, begging for mercy, still echo in my head. ”

"My mother has been waiting for you down here for eighteen years, why don't you let the child make this decision for his father?"

After speaking, the dagger hidden in his sleeve was revealed, with a cruel smile on his face, and he pressed towards Qian Yun step by step.

Qian Yun was shocked, retreated, and shouted, "Rebel, what do you want to do?

Qian Xiang said: "No need to call, you know what? Now you are the enemy of the whole city." ”

"Oh, by the way, you may not know it yet, your favorite son, my good big brother, is your old man and the son of that slut, hahaha, laugh at me, you have raised your son for twenty-five years for others, before you die, you are very excited to know the news. ”

Qian Yun's steps back paused, his face was full of disbelief, and said, "Impossible, you are slandering the material." ”

"Slander, don't you already have doubts in your heart? just don't want to admit it, don't you?"

Qian Yun was stunned, Qian Xiang stabbed a dagger into his chest, and said viciously: "I will not leave a future in my life, and from now on you will cut off your children and grandchildren." ”

After speaking, he pulled out the dagger and cut off his life with a knife, and Qian Yun saw it and didn't blink an eye.

"Hahahahaha

Only the bleak laughter of Qian Lane echoed in the study.

The development of things is often unexpected, when Xia Wenjie brought people to the City Lord's Mansion, all the guards at the door were poisoned, and when he entered the City Lord's Mansion, he saw that it was full of corpses, all of which were poisoned, which was very strange.

When he came to the study and saw the killed Qian Yun, as well as Qian Xiang who was bleeding too much and was unconscious, Xia Wenjie thought about it for a while, and still asked Qian Xiang to be sent for treatment.

He turned and walked out of the mansion, and headed for the south gate with three thousand men.

Liu Jiang was directly killed by his soldiers mutiny, his actions have long made the soldiers dissatisfied, he wants to die, and the soldiers don't want to die, so his end has been doomed from the time he refused to open the city and surrender.

The morning sun rose in the east, and the golden light sprinkled onto the earth, shining on the soldiers of the Qin army outside Zhongmu City, bringing some warmth to this somewhat cool morning.

The soldiers were lined up neatly, the siege was already ready, Bai Yifei stood on top of the cloud car, looked at the closed city gate, and said secretly: "Did you fail last night?"

With a serious face, he was just about to give the order to attack the city, but the city gate creaked open a gap, and then gradually opened to both sides, and the drawbridge was slowly lowered.

Seeing this, Bai Yifei smiled, and ordered: "Yan Jia ordered you to bring 5,000 people into the city, take over the city, act carefully, and beware of the other party's fraud." ”

Yan Jia bowed down and said, "The last general will take the order." ”

After speaking, he led 5,000 soldiers into the city, and in less than half an hour, the whole city was taken over by the Killing God Army, and Bai Yifei led the army into the city.
