Yecheng, the gate of the imperial palace opened and then quickly closed.

"Chen Mo, what do you mean by this?" Gao Gan looked at the messenger who had almost climbed back, and asked with a frown.

"General, then Chen Mofei said that we were going to surrender by fraud, and he didn't pay attention to the subordinate officials at all, and in the end, he even asked someone to beat the subordinate officials with a stick, which is really hateful!" The envoy bared his teeth and grinned, the military stick on Chen Mo's side was real, if he wanted to say that he was also a famous man in Jizhou, how could he have been insulted like this?

"Go down." Gao Gan waved his hand, and after signaling the envoy to retreat, he looked at the judge: "Mr. Zhengnan, did Chen Mo see through our strategy?" ”

"He just doesn't want me to surrender at this point." The trial is a little weak, Chen Mo's approach is a bit of a scoundrel, but they are helpless, after all, this deception has not happened before.

What can the current Jizhou Army do even if it surrenders? As long as the palace gate is opened, it is impossible for the remaining soldiers and horses in his hand to block the tiger and wolf army under Chen Mo, at this time, Chen Mo will be afraid of fraudulent surrender? This is obviously just a pretext.

But even if you understand it, what can you do?

"Everyone in the world says that Chen Moonai is the king of benevolence and righteousness, why can't I be the gentry of Yecheng alone?" Gao Gan said bitterly, if he tried the words, he understood, this Chen Mo clearly wanted to slaughter the gentry in the inner city.

Righteousness?

The judge glanced at Gao Gan and shook his head, in the competition for power, there is only a trade-off of pros and cons, when has there been true benevolence? Chen Mo not only wants Jizhou, but also continues to implement his new policy in Guanzhong after getting Jizhou, and Chen Mo's new policy is almost no different from changing the law.

Looking at the past and present, which change was not accompanied by dripping blood and white bones? War is a disaster, but for people like Chen Mo, it is not an opportunity, he is using this chaos in the world, ready to completely shake many fundamental things since the founding of the Han Dynasty, and the gentry in this world are the defenders of the old order, Chen Mo is sympathetic to the people but not to the scholars, from this battle of Yecheng, the trial can probably see what kind of scene Chen Mo will be like after he gets Jizhou.

Yecheng may just be the beginning, this way of attacking, I don't know how many people will be buried here.

Even though the judge gritted his teeth with hatred, he had to admire Chen Mo's ruthlessness and decisiveness.

"What should I do now?" Gao Gan was already a little upset, if Chen Mo directly led his troops to attack, it would be stronger than now, and he felt like he was waiting for death.

"Tomorrow will be visible." The judge sighed, it is impossible to stop it, Chen Mo is obviously determined to wash the blood of this Jizhou gentry, how can the thousands of people and horses remaining in the palace be stopped?

"Tomorrow?"

"Yes, tomorrow, the gentry in the inner city, the ones who should be killed will be almost killed, and the rest ......" The judge turned back and looked at Gao Gan: "The rest, I'm afraid I don't have the courage to stop Chen Mo anymore." ”

Gao Gan looked at the trial with some distraction: "Then what should I do?" ”

The judge didn't speak, just walked slowly outside.

How? By this time, life and death were out of their own hands.

……

In the inner city, the general's mansion of the Yuan family has been breached, and it is used as Chen Mo's temporary residence in Yecheng.

"My lord, all the servants in the house have been cleared, but the female relatives of the Yuan family will not dare to make decisions without permission." Zhang Yan accompanied Chen Mo and bowed.

"Ladies and daughters?" Chen Mo nodded, followed Zhang Yan to the back hall, and saw several bound women huddled together and shivering.

"This is my lord Changling Marquis, and you haven't seen the courtesy?" Zhang Yan glared at the group of women and shouted.

"The concubine has seen the Marquis of Changling." But when I saw a crowd of female dependents, a rather charming woman stood up, tied her hands, and said with a smooth face.

The woman is in her forties, but her body shape and appearance are very well maintained.

"Lord, this is Yuan Shao's wife, and she is also the biological mother of Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite." Chen Mo drew his sword, cut off the ropes of his hands, and said with a smile: "When I was in Luoyang, Ben Chu Gong and I were quite taken care of. ”

"In the name of the Marquis of Changling's benevolence, the concubine has heard a lot in Jizhou, and has repeatedly persuaded my son not to be the enemy of the Marquis of Changling, but it is a pity that this military event, the concubine is not good for a woman to interfere without authorization, so there is a misunderstanding today." Liu nodded frequently, and the flattering smile on his face really didn't look like what a high-ranking lady should be.

Chen Mo nodded, looked at the other ladies and said with a smile: "Good hospitality, when the battle is over, I will send my sister-in-law and Yuan Shang's mother and son to reunite in the next meeting." ”

"Thank you Marquis Changling, the concubine will definitely persuade my son to be a vassal to Marquis Changling." Liu hurriedly bowed.

"Sister-in-law doesn't have to be like this." Chen Mo smiled, and was about to leave, when he suddenly frowned, turned his head to look at one of the female dependents, pointed at the female dependent, and said, "Who is this woman?" ”

It's not that I like it, after all, except for the Liu family now, most of the other female dependents cover their faces with messy hair, but Chen Mo subconsciously swept it just now, and found that this woman's life count was extremely high, which made Chen Mo a little curious.

A woman's life count generally relies on men, the more noble a man's status is, most of his women's lives are not low, Chen Mo's side, except for Cai Yan and Diao Chan themselves, whose lives are extremely high, both Yun Si and Juan'er began to climb after becoming Chen Mo's concubine.

"This is Xianyi's wife, the family affair set by the first husband, and it is also the woman's life, just getting started, Xianyi was sent to guard Youzhou, this Youzhou is bitterly cold, I will keep her by my side, and after Xianyi comes back, I will give the gift of husband and wife." Liu hurriedly cupped the woman's face and said: "Marquis Changling, look, this woman has had a teacher since she was a child, and her life is extremely expensive, unspeakably expensive, and her life is thin, so why don't you leave her to serve by the Marquis of Changling?" ”

"Mother?" The woman looked at her mother-in-law in shock, this is what a mother-in-law can say?

"It's a good look." Chen Mo looked at the woman's face and asked with a smile, "What's your name?" ”

The woman bowed her head and didn't answer, and Liu hurriedly said: "This girl is the young daughter of the Zhen family in Zhongshan, and her name is Zhen Mi." ”

Then he patted Zhen Mi and said: "You and Xianyi have not yet had sex, they can't be married, the Marquis of Changling is a hero in the world, and being able to serve him by his side is a good thing that ordinary women can't ask for!" Don't thank you Marquis Changling! ”

"Slowly~" Don't say Zhen Mi, Liu's words, Chen Mo and the surrounding generals were stunned, what did Yuan Shao marry?

"I don't have that intention, just wait for a good rest and send you back after the war." Chen Mo waved his hand and left straight away with Dian Wei.

Zhang Yan was about to leave, but was pulled by Liu: "I don't know what this general is called?" ”

"Black Mountain Army, have you ever heard of it?" Zhang Yan glanced at Liu coldly, not wanting to deal with this woman.

"Black Mountain thief ......" Liu subconsciously blurted out, as soon as the words came out, he felt inappropriate, and quickly changed his words: "It turned out to be a righteous man above the Black Mountain, I don't know how my daughter-in-law Changling Marquis is going to arrange it?" ”

"Didn't the lord already say it?" Zhang Yan frowned and said: "You are waiting for a good life to rest in peace, and after the war, you will naturally let you and others reunite with your family." ”

"The general doesn't know, although my daughter-in-law married into my Yuan family, but because Yuan Xi left in a hurry, she didn't have a round house, so she is still complete at the moment, please send her to the Changling Marquis room on my behalf." Liu hurriedly said.

"You woman, don't you understand what the lord is saying?" Zhang Yan was a little impatient.

"The general is also a man, there are so many people on the side, with the reputation of the Marquis of Changling, he likes it in his heart, and he will definitely not admit it, this man in the world, which is not like this, the ancient emperor Chan Rang, there are still three words not to accept, the general only needs to send this woman to it, I am also at ease." Liu smiled and quietly stuffed a night pearl into Zhang Yan's hand.

"Mother, how can this be? The Marquis of Changling is very human, how can he be like this? Zhen Mi said bitterly.

"Listen to me, with you alone, you can protect my entire Yuan clan, and besides, you and Xianyi are not in the same room, how can you count?" Liu looked at Zhen Mi with a serious face.

Zhang Yan looked at the night pearl in her hand, then looked at Liu, and then looked at Zhen Mi, she did have a world-class appearance, if she really followed Yuan Xi, Zhang Yan felt sorry for her, maybe it was really as this woman said, the lord was really moved, but it was inconvenient to say more?

"Well, you come with me." Zhang Yan put away the night pearl and looked at Zhen Midao.

Zhen Mi's heart was miserable, how could she say that the status of the daughter-in-law of the Yuan family is there, and after Yuan Xi left, she served the Liu family in Yecheng, but now she was sent out like goods, how can it be accepted?

"Go quickly, don't let the Marquis of Changling wait for a long time." Liu gave her a push.

"Please hurry up, Madame, the last general still has military affairs to deal with, and it is inconvenient to stay here for a long time!" Zhang Yan frowned, didn't help, just urged.

Zhen Mi sighed faintly, bowed silently, and left behind Zhang Yan.

Looking at the back of the group leaving, Liu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, looked left and right and smiled: "In this way, I will have no worries for the time being." ”

If it weren't for the fact that he was too old with Chen Mo, Chen Mo might not have looked down on him, and in the face of such a young hero, the Liu family couldn't help but want to recommend himself.

"Gao Ran has already arrived?" Chen Mo naturally didn't know that such a big scene would happen after leaving, after leaving the back hall, he went straight to the meeting hall of the General's Mansion, where Xun You was already waiting for him, and after hearing that Gao Ran had arrived outside Yecheng and fought with Cui Geng and others, Chen Mo was also a little surprised, this Gao Lan's speed was not slow, if he was two days late, I am afraid that he would already be in the back of the enemy at this moment.

"Yes, as soon as Gao Ran comes, Yuan Shang's army and Cao Cao are probably not far away, and the lord needs to solve the war in the city as soon as possible to avoid being implicated." Xun Yu bowed.

"Order Cui Geng, Bao Geng, and Shi Geng to build more sentry posts on the main roads outside the city, and send more scouts to listen to the enemy's movements." Chen Mo nodded, if the two joined forces, it would not be easy to solve.

"喏~"
