The Yue people, who were originally swaying, felt the aura of revenge permeating the city wall, and immediately felt empathy, and shouted: "Avenge the general..."

Seeing this, Xu Quan knew that this persuasion operation had completely failed, and his luck disappeared in his heart.

After a pause, he saw that the messengers around him had fallen into a frenzy, and that he was not far from the city wall.

So, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Yue people, he immediately jumped out of Dading, and then quickly ran to the edge of the city wall, intending to jump over the wall to escape.

It's just that I've only run three or four steps, and I'm only two steps away from the tooth wall.

A Vietnamese pawn reacted, with a look of immediate resentment, stabbed the spear in his hand, and stabbed into Xu Quan's waist hard, and then, on the other side, another soldier shot out and also stabbed Xu Quan in the back.

Just when the other soldiers came over and were about to vent their anger, Shu Yi immediately shouted: "Stop! ”

When the soldiers heard this, they immediately turned their heads and looked at Shu Yi hesitantly.

Looking at everyone's eyes, Shu Yi sneered: "Just kill him like this, it's too cheap for him, I was going to cook him alive, so that I can eliminate my hatred." ”

When everyone heard this, they smiled, and immediately set up Xu Quan, shouting "cooking" while throwing Xu Quan into Dingzhong again.

At this time, he was seriously injured, and he felt that the water in the ding was already very hot, and he knew that his death was coming, so he endured the pain in his back, and laughed at the people around him:

"A group of self-deceiving madmen, thinking that if they cook me, they can cook the king of Chu? I am just an insignificant inferior envoy in the Chu army, and if I kill me, I will not be able to hurt the Chu army at all.

If you cook me today, the king of Chu will avenge me tomorrow. And you, soon, will be buried for me, just the next person, can walk with everyone in the city, no loss, no loss..."

Hearing this, Shu Yi didn't care, and said to the Yue people on the city wall with the same face: "Everyone, are you afraid? ”

"Don't be afraid." Everyone answered in unison.

"Okay." Shu Yi said with a smile: "Today, I want the people of Chu to know that I am in addition to Gongzi Yu, who betrayed the country for glory, and Gongsun Hai, who was greedy for life and afraid of death and feared war and surrendered. There are not only the kings and princes who would rather die than surrender, but also the Huaibei Shou who fought to the end, as well as my Shuyi, and all the soldiers of Shandao City. ”

In the end, his voice suddenly increased, and he swore loudly: "Even if it is death, the general will fight to the death, and it is better to be broken than broken, contrary to this statement, people and gods will abandon it." ”

When the soldiers heard this, they were excited by Shu Yi, remembering the kindness of the general Wang Xing when he was in Huaibei, and remembering that the Chu people used despicable means to plot Huaibei, and suddenly couldn't help but shout angrily: "I'd rather be a broken jade than a full ······ for the tile."

Seeing that all the soldiers were mobilized, Shu Yi immediately nodded with satisfaction, and then commanded loudly: "Although the Chu people are numerous, the general has never been afraid of threats, aren't the Chu people threatening the whole family?" Instead of letting the Chu people ravage my wife and daughter and kill my people after breaking the city, it is better for me to kill the whole family myself to show my will to die.

The order was sent to the general's house, all the women in the house were beheaded, and all the men in the house were incorporated into the army. ”

When the surrounding soldiers heard this, they immediately showed admiration, and they did not hesitate to resist the siege of the Chu people.

······

Outside the city.

Xiong Huai saw that the envoy had been in for a while, but there was no movement in the city, and his heart couldn't help but sink.

Just when he was hesitating in his heart, there was a faint call in the city:

"Revenge..."

"I'd rather be a broken jade than a whole tile..."

Hearing this voice, Xiong Huai suddenly frowned, and asked hesitantly: "Rhino head, Chen Qing, I wonder if Qing and the others heard any sounds?" ”

Gongsun Yan replied with a heavy face: "King, it seems that the city is shouting, 'It is better to be a broken jade than a complete tile'. It seems that our envoys failed to persuade them to surrender, and the Vietnamese people in the city planned to die rather than surrender. ”

Chen Zhen followed: "The king, the minister also heard it." ”

Xiong Huai snorted coldly when he heard this: "Since the Yue people in the city toast and don't eat and drink, and live up to the widow's heart, then don't blame the widow for being polite."

Send an order to the Pillar Kingdom to prepare for the siege. ”

"Yui!" Gongsun Yan immediately responded.

Then, Xiong Huai said to Chen Zhen: "Chen Qing, when the envoy returns, let him come to see the widow immediately, and the widow must know the reality in the city." ”

"Yui!"

After Gongsun Yan passed the order, he looked at the sky, and then looked at the soldiers who were still preparing siege equipment in front of the battle, and then said: "King, it's too late to attack the city today, why don't you build a big camp outside the city for the time being, and wait for tomorrow morning, the equipment is ready, and immediately wave your army to attack the city." ”

Xiong Huai groaned in his heart and nodded: "Okay, according to the words of the rhino head, I will send an order to Jingyang and let him lead the army to build a military camp." ”

"Yui!"

Then, Xiong Huai saw that there was no movement on the city wall, so he no longer waited, and ordered: "Order, Wang Che returns to the camp, and all the front-line soldiers are handed over to Zhuguo." ”

"Yui."

Returning to the royal tent that had been set up in Jingyang, Xiong Huai immediately discussed with Gongsun Yan and Chen Zhen how to appease the people in the city after the city was broken.

After the discussion is due.

Seeing that the envoy still hadn't returned, Xiong Huai couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, thought about it, and said to Chen Zhen: "Chen Qing, it's been a long time since the envoy of my Chu State has entered the city, since the Yue people will undoubtedly go out of the city and surrender, then let someone send someone to summon the envoy out." ”

Chen Zhen was also hesitant at this time, it stands to reason that the Yue people shouted in the city before, which had already indicated that the persuasion had failed, and at that time, the envoy should leave the Good Dao City and return.

As a result, after such a long time, he still hasn't returned.

Could it be that the envoy had an accident in the city?

Thinking about it, he immediately responded to Xiong Huai: "Yes, king." ”

With that, Chen Zhen got up and walked out.

Not long after, Chen Zhen walked in with a heavy and pale face, and bowed to Xiong Huai: "King, the minister just sent someone to the city to ask for a messenger, and as a result, the Yue people actually sent back a bowl of meat soup. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiong Huai and Gongsun Yan in the tent were shocked at the same time.

In the middle of the ring, Xiong Huai reacted and asked in disbelief: "Chen Qing is saying that the Yue people in the city actually cooked the widow's envoy?" ”

Chen Zhen nodded, and said with a heavy face: "King, the Yue people are extremely rude, and they must teach the Yue people in the city a lesson in order to eliminate their hatred." ”

A nameless fire erupted in Xiong Huai's heart, and he said angrily: "The two countries are not at war, this is the rule since ancient times. What's more, this is the messenger of the widow, representing the face of the widow, how can he be humiliated. And the Yue people, not only humiliated the messenger, but also sentenced the messenger to cooking, where is this cooking messenger, this is clearly cooking the widow!

The more people bully the widow too much, it is tolerable, which is unbearable! ”
