No wonder those Southern Expeditionary Army can worship you so much, except for you, they don't listen to other people's orders, even Your Majesty even sent a few invitations to recruit you to march, and you didn't listen to them.

We in Xiling have a word to describe people like you, Our Lady. ”

As soon as Hou Shigui finished speaking, Xiang Xu walked behind an old woman again.

The old woman was held down by the brocade guard, and her voice was already hoarse from crying, and she only opened her mouth and shouted hoarsely, but she couldn't make a sound.

Seeing that the old woman was being held down, Yuwen Hao immediately became excited.

This woman is no stranger, she is the nurse who brought him from childhood to adulthood!

When his wife was pregnant, Yu Wencheng was transferred to Beijing as an official, so Yu Wenhao grew up with his nurse since he was a child.

This nurse can be said to be the closest person to him in the world besides his mother, even closer than his father!

Seeing that Yu Wenhao was moving quite a lot, Hou Shigui raised his hand, stopped Xiang Xu's knife fall, and asked:

"General Yu Wen, if you agree to write, you will nod, and you will not fall with a knife."

After speaking, he saw Yu Wenhao sitting motionless on the sedan chair, but two lines of tears flowed from his eyes.

His face was no longer struggling, but an expression of despair and pain.

"Alas...... Why bother, it is only a matter of time before they rebel and be wiped out by His Majesty, why would General Yuwen do this for a group of dead people? ”

That's right, in Hou Shigui's opinion, Yu Wenhao is contrived!

Family members and outsiders, which is more important, as long as it is an individual, can be distinguished!

But this Yu Wenhao thinks that he values love and righteousness, and he is a good man with responsibility, and he would rather watch his family and friends die than let those rebellious soldiers die, isn't this pretentious?

Although the sage said that the public is selfless, but people live in the world, which one is selfless?

If you don't even have the selfishness to protect your family, then is it still a person? You go to cultivate immortals!

Hou Shigui saw that Yu Wenhao looked in pain, and the soldiers on the city wall had begun to release arrows under the command of Bao Ji, so he knew that time was running out and he could not delay any longer.

Then he turned his head and shouted to the Jinyi guards under the city:

"Jin Yiwei! Kill me!! ”

After Hou Shigui's order, a group of brocade guards drew their swords and killed the crowd in the square.

The first to suffer were Yu Wenhao's relatives and friends.

Since they had just been escorted by the Jinyi Guard, they were still on the periphery, and in the face of the Jinyi Guard's butcher knife, they could only hate on the spot.

Just after Jinyiwei killed a few people in a row, Hou Shigui saw Yu Wenhao nodding again and again.

After all, people are not saints, even if it is this Yu Wenhao, he is just a mortal, not an immortal.

So Hou Shigui hurriedly shouted:

"Stop! Rescue the wounded! ”

Then he walked up to Yu Wenhao and took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone for him.

Yu Wenhao glanced up at Hou Shigui, and hurriedly wrote a piece of paper:

"I can agree to your conditions, but you must ensure that my people are safe and my Southern Expeditionary Army is safe!

They fought for their country, spilled blood on the battlefield, and finally escaped back from the south, and they should not be treated like this again! ”

Looking at this piece of paper, Hou Shigui smiled disdainfully:

"Once upon a time, there was a person who did all the good deeds, repaired roads, paved bridges, and donated money for the village, and he could be said to be a great benevolent person in the village.

But later, this great good man raped a woman in the village and killed the woman's entire family.

The villagers all said that the woman's house was cultivated by the great good man, and the great good man did so many good things for the village, forget it, General Yu Wen, what do you think?

No matter how many things they have done for the dynasty before, what about now? Instead of listening to His Majesty's orders, they rebelled!

General Yuwen, you are not a Heavenly Dao, you are not an immortal, just an ordinary person.

Those soldiers have their own way of dying, and that's none of your business.

But your family, the thought of life and death of the clansmen is in your hands, I still say the same thing, soldiers, family, you can decide for yourself. ”

After speaking, seeing that Yu Wenhao's face was hesitant, and the shouting and killing outside the city wall was getting closer and closer, Hou Shigui paused, and added:

"I promise you the first thing, do my best to keep as many of your Yuwen clansmen alive as possible.

But that's just to keep them alive, and it's just to do their best.

If I can't do it, I can't do it.

General Yu Wen, still not decided? But let me help you?!! Old item!! ”

With Hou Shigui's shout, Xiang Xu raised his knife and slashed over a middle-aged man kneeling beside him.

Seeing this scene, Yu Wenhao didn't dare to delay any longer, and only nodded with tears in his eyes.

"It's my Xiling girl! Drawing a bow is also stronger than you! What are you doing hiding here on the battlements?! Get up and release the arrows! ”

With a single kick, Bao Ji kicked a soldier hiding behind the battlements to avoid the stray arrows.

But the soldier was already frightened, even if he was kicked to the ground by Bao Ji, he just shrunk like a shrimp and hid behind the battlements, and did not even dare to stand up again.

His appearance really made the people around him panic.

However, it didn't take long for them to panic before an even greater fear came.

I saw that the seven-fingered man pulled out his saber, and stabbed it in the heart of the coward, and then the blade twisted, and the cowardly died on the spot in pain:

"No fight against the enemy! That's the end of it! Old ginger, let's see which cowardly dares to face the enemy without fighting, and stab it with a knife! ”

Jiang Yong, who was following Bao Ji, answered loudly and walked towards another soldier hiding behind the battlements.

When the soldier saw this, how could he dare to hide again? He quickly got up and bent his bow and arrows outside the city.

Bao Ji poked his head out of the city and looked outside, and saw that the vanguard troops on the opposite side were carrying the ladder and were fifty steps away from the city wall, and shouted again:

"Where's the oil? Is it ?!! burned? ”

Bao Ji didn't ask, but when he asked, he saw that no one responded, so he hurriedly raised his head and looked at the place where the city wall was placed with boiling oil.

Around each boiling oil, a few people who had been improvised from near the city walls were scrambling to light fires.

Finally, I just saw the spark, but a north wind blew, and the spark was extinguished.

After such a long delay, I haven't even cooked two boiling oils!!

Bao Ji was so angry that he almost didn't order the people who came with temporary signs to be killed on the spot.

Fortunately, Hou Shigui was on the side of the city tower, and this idea only flashed in his mind, and he shouted:

"That's it! In this cold winter, push the boiling oil forward, and the cold will also kill these thieves and birds! ”

At Bao Ji's order, the people immediately gave up the fire as if relieved, and began to push the boiling oil to the edge of the city wall.

A few unlucky bastards, without armor, were shot dead by the loss shot from the city on the spot, and five were wounded.

These men were not professional men in the first place, but were temporarily taken from their homes.

As soon as they arrived at the city wall, someone couldn't help but look down curiously.

Good guys, there is a crowd of people under the city wall, how many people must be here?

Frightened, the men ignored the soldiers who were watching behind them, turned around and ran towards the stairs behind the city wall.

Outside the city wall, the Southern Expeditionary Army and the Yuwen Army were not so unimpeded.
