Chapter 311: Fake Surrender
Xun Huo was directly frightened by this shout and fell to his knees, but he was still confused in his heart, and couldn't help asking:
"Lord of the City, the sachet was given to me by Liang Xue, I have never opened it myself, I don't know what is written on it!"
"Humph! See for yourself! With that, the city lord threw the sachet directly in front of him!
At this time, Xun Huo's two arms were released by the soldiers, and Xun Huo hurriedly opened the sachet without spices, and saw that it was written in very small font:
"Attack at the south gate tonight, the public can act according to the plan, if it happens, then the position of the city lord of Qilin belongs to your Excellency!"
Seeing this, Xun Huo's face turned pale suddenly!
Isn't this asking for his life? He was willing to surrender at the time, why did this group send him back instead?
He was still confused, but now he figured it out, this is to borrow a knife to kill someone!
And if they don't discover the secret in the bag...... That person may not look down on his surrender at all, but want to use him to take down this city!
This ploy almost left him with no other way, and was completely arranged by others. And there are hardly any flaws, because there is a corresponding plan to be executed at each step......
Whether it is being killed by a borrowed knife, or whether he is the person who helped Huoyi City, the difficulty of the enemy's siege this time will undoubtedly decrease......
Looking at Xun Huo, who was kneeling on the ground without saying a word, the city lord snorted coldly and said:
"The lord treats you well, but I didn't expect you to take refuge in the enemy. It's okay if you really take refuge in Liu Pei, but you still want to take refuge in a family force that has just been established? Hum! Come on, drag Xun Huo down and behead me for me! ”
Hearing the word "chop", Xun Huo suddenly came back to his senses from his distraction, and then realized that his life was about to be gone.
However, without waiting for him to beg for mercy, Gongsun Xu, who had been targeting him just now, suddenly jumped out to intercede for him?
"Wait!" Gongsun Xu stretched out his hand to stop the two soldiers, and then knelt down on one knee in front of the city lord, hugged his fists and said, "The city lord is angry!" Although there are human and material evidence now, this may not be Xun Huo's original intention. After all, he was taken prisoner at the time, and maybe he was forced. ”
Hearing this, the city lord snorted coldly: "Persecuted? Can a person who is forced to do such a thing? If he is really loyal to his lord, he should rather die than give in! ”
"The city lord is angry...... Gongsun Xu continued to convince him, "Now that the lord is presiding over the decisive battle on the front line, our strength in the rear is weak. It is not advisable to weaken our own strength at this time. ”
"Besides...... Xun Huo was taken down by me as soon as he entered the city, maybe he was going to tell us the news, so that we could have a plan? ”
"Will it be calculated?" Hearing this, the city lord's face softened slightly, then he looked at Xun Huo and asked in a cold voice, "Xun Ziyuan, is that so?" ”
Xun Huo looked at Gongsun Xu, and Gongsun Xu was also looking at him at the moment. After seeing him blink his left eye suddenly, he quickly reacted and bowed his head and said: .
"Lord Huicheng, General Gongsun is right. I was forcibly taken away, and I never thought of surrendering to the other party. ”
"I wanted to die to make my ambitions, but I suddenly heard that they had thoughts about Qilin City, so I thought that instead of dying so uselessly, it would be better to do something for our lord and this Qilin City...... That's why I pretended to agree to cooperate with the other party! ”
