Chapter 665: Shou Chun's Old Acquaintance Became a Prisoner of War
Liu Muzhi looked at Liu Yu in surprise: "Who did you see?" Acquaintances? ”
Liu Yu's eyes fell on the man who walked in the front, with a dark face and a resolute expression, and said: "This leader is called Yanzhi, he is from Pengcheng, when I was in Shouchun City, this person brought a group of villagers, and he didn't want to be the people of Qin, just like them, he went all the way south to Shouchun City, and I was also because I took Liu Tingyun to Shouchun City to marry, and later the Qin army killed, I was in Shouchun to defend the city, this to Yanzhi joined the army defending the city as a people, and helped me a lot, when Shouchun City fell, I escaped alone, I don't know their whereabouts, but I didn't expect that as a prisoner of war of the Qin army here, it was publicly auctioned on this stage! No, this is absolutely not good, how can our soldiers and civilians of the Great Jin Dynasty be prisoners of the Qin State? ”
Before Liu Yu's words were finished, he saw two thirteen or fourteen-year-old teenagers who were also pushed onto the stage, and he took a few steps back to stop the soldiers who were scolding and pushing the two teenagers, and several companions around him immediately surrounded and protected the two teenagers.
Liu Yu was even more surprised at this time, his mouth opened wide, and the two teenagers looked at Liu Yu from a distance, so anxious that they almost cried, and shouted: "Master, Master, save us!" ”
Liu Yu didn't say a word and walked out, these two teenagers were none other than the two apprentices he had taken in Shouchun City, Zhu Lingshi and Zhu Chaoshi. At that time, Shouchun City fell, and he was almost captured in Shouchun City, but with the help of Murong Lan, he escaped from the Zhu family's tunnel by relying on the Zhu brothers.
Liu Yu didn't say a word, walked on the stage, Wang Mi's face changed, and several soldiers on the side stepped forward and stopped Liu Yu, Wang Mi hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "Master Liu, this is the auction conference, you buyers can't come to the stage, this is the decree of the imperial court, please abide by it." ”
Liu Yu shook his head, pointed at Yan Zhi and the others and said, "Secretary Wang, is there any misunderstanding, these people are all soldiers and civilians of our Great Jin, why would they be auctioned as prisoners of the Qin army?" ”
A trace of confusion flashed on Wang Mi's face, he looked at the thin book in his hand, turned to Yanzhi and asked, "Are you called Yanzhi?" ”
Zhi Yanzhi hurriedly said loudly: "I am to Yanzhi, Pengcheng people, I am a citizen of the Great Jin, when Shouchun City was guarded, I and other people who went south from Pengcheng joined the team to defend the city in Shouchun City, and at that time we were led by Liu Yu and Liu Zhu (Zhi Yanzhi did not know that Liu Yu had been promoted to the military lord), if the adults did not believe it, they could also ask General Xu Yuanxi, and he could also testify for us. ”
Speaking of this, one of the brothers Zhu Lingshi and Zhu Chaoshi was pulled over, pointed at these two, and said loudly to the audience: "Everyone, please see, these two children are the sons of General Zhu Zhu of our Shouchun City, and they are also the apprentices of Liu Yu and Liu Xuan, after they broke through by relying on the tunnel to protect Liu Xuan, they couldn't let go of the safety of our brothers in the city, and sneaked back to the city to find us, but they were discovered by the Qin army and trapped in the Qin camp like us. ”
Liu Yu then understood why the Zhu brothers were also here, he looked at the Zhu Lingshi brothers, the two original sons and sisters, who were unkempt at this time, their faces were full of tiredness, dark and thin, and they seemed to have suffered from the hardships they had never suffered in their lives, Liu Yu looked sad for a while, and hurriedly said: "Good apprentice, you have suffered." ”
Zhu Lingshi's eyes were shining with tears, but he couldn't hold back his tears, he even barely squeezed out a smile: "It's okay, Master, if we can hold on, we know that Master will definitely come to save us!" ”
Wang Mi's brows furrowed, and said: "Master Liu, although these people are your old acquaintances, after all, they were captured on the battlefield, and many of the Qin prisoners of war auctioned here are the people of the Great Jin Dynasty who were coerced by them, some are prisoners of war, and some are ordinary people. ”
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly, and he looked at Wang Mi: "Secretary Wang, everything in this world has to talk about a reason, I don't know other people's affairs, but this to Yanzhi, as well as his brother, and my two apprentices, I am clear, to the brother is unwilling to serve the Qin State, risking death to go south, but also to help us defend the city, this is the righteous man of the Great Jin, because of the betrayal of the traitor, the city fell into the hands of the enemy, we won a big victory in the water, isn't it just to defeat the Qin army and save our people of the Great Jin, why do you want to auction them as slaves instead?" ”
"And the brothers of the Zhu family, they are the sons of my dignified General Dajin, you know this situation here, and you still put them up for auction as prisoners of war, aren't you afraid that General Zhu will come back to you and fight hard?"
Xie Xuan's voice sounded calmly: "Secretary Wang, there seems to be some misunderstanding in this matter, but it's no wonder, hundreds of thousands of Qin army prisoners of war, it is inevitable that some mistakes will be made, since Lord Liu said so, I suggest that you might as well let these people withdraw from the auction first, and wait for the truth to be found out afterwards, and then make a decision." ”
Wang Mi gritted his teeth and looked back at Yan Zhi: "How were you captured by the Qin army, and how were you captured by my Great Jin later?" Also, the Zhu brothers are only thirteen or fourteen-year-old children, how could they be mixed in with these adult prisoners of war and auctioned? ”
A voice sounded coldly from the shed in the rear: "Because these people are fierce and aggressive, on the battlefield, when they were captured, they were wearing the clothes of Qin soldiers, and they fought in formation in the baggage camp of the Qin army. As for the two teenagers, they were holding slingshots at the time, but they didn't miss a shot, and even the eyes of two of my guards blinded one of them. ”
Everyone looked at the source of the voice, and saw a thirty-seven or eighteen-year-old, handsome, and well-maintained son of a family, slowly lifting the curtain and coming out, his figure was heroic and upright, elegant and more capable of military temperament, isn't it Xie An's own son, the commander of the left army in the Battle of Weishui, Xie Yan?
Xie Xuan also stood up and walked out of the pergola, Xie Yan walked step by step without hurrying, these two cousins in the family, the main and deputy marshal of the battle formation, came together, their expressions were a little unnatural, Xie Xuan said indifferently: "Yu Du (Xie Yan's character), when did you come?" I didn't say hello either. ”
