Chapter 1008: Don't Come Unharmed
"General, don't come unharmed." Pei Zilie strode up to the north gate.
Only Chen Yu and more than a hundred guards were left by Xiao Maha's side, and the rest of the soldiers were dispersed by Xiao Maha.
When the east and west gates were opened at the same time by Ren Zhong and the Lu family brothers, Xiao Maha already knew what the people in the city were thinking. It stands to reason that the main generals in these two directions have such a big movement in their brains, it is impossible for Xiao Maha not to receive any news, and even they can cross the city to reach an agreement, but this is the case, Xiao Maha was really kept in the dark, and it was not until the Shu Han army entered the city that he knew that the general trend had gone.
What does this mean?
It shows that even the soldiers under Xiao Maha's own command have changed their minds, so even if they noticed some changes, they simply deceived Xiao Maha, and even directly reached an agreement with Ren Zhong or the Lu family brothers.
Thinking about this joint, Xiao Maha knew that there was no need to gather troops to continue to resist, and this military heart was obviously no longer in his hands.
But perhaps what makes me happy is that at least Chen Yu still has these guards of his own, and they still follow him.
Looking at the high-spirited Pei Zilie, Xiao Maha sighed secretly, how much like himself who was Le Ma Jiangling at the beginning!
It's a pity that now that I have changed positions, I have become the losing side.
There is nothing to talk about with Pei Zilie, a guy who is a junior from any point of view, Xiao Maha said lightly: "Jiangling City is yours." β
After speaking, Xiao Maha took out his sword and wiped it directly towards his neck, but Chen Yu, who had obviously been prepared for a long time, stepped forward directly and hugged Xiao Maha, and the rest of the guards were also anxious to pull Xiao Maha's wrist away.
"General, it's come to this, what's the trouble!" Chen Yu, a seven-foot man, has red eyes, and his own general is the most qualified person in the entire Southern Chen Imperial Court to occupy a place under Li Xinchen, but in order to prove his loyalty, he has fulfilled his duty as a courtier, and even better than those so-called imperial relatives.
After all, as a royal family member, Chen Huiji, the assassin of Jingzhou, abandoned Yingzhou and left, and Chen Shujian, the king of Changsha, was forced by Li Xinchen's soldiers to give up and lose most of Xiangzhou City. Xiao Maha has been able to do his best to get to this point.
"Let go of me!" Xiao Maha struggled to want Chen Yu and them to let go, "Gaozu and the first emperor are both kind to me, how can I abandon them!" β
"The general has fought thousands of miles to recover Jiangling, and today he is defending this place to contain the front of my army for nearly a month," Pei Zilie stepped forward slowly, reached out to hold Xiao Maha's hand, and broke his fingers holding the hilt of the sword little by little, "Father-in-law, you have done enough, why don't you spend the rest of your life to see where the tide of the world will roll." β
Looking at Pei Zilie's sincere expression, Xiao Maha's slightly trembling body gradually calmed down, he sighed deeply and threw away the saber casually. And Chen Yu and the others next to him bowed down and retreated. Pei Zilie said in a low voice: "Qing'er is already pregnant, and my father-in-law doesn't want to see her, doesn't he want to see the child when the time comes?" β
This sentence seemed to hit the softest place in Xiao Maha's heart.
Yes, I always think about being loyal to this country, but when does this country remember his loyalty? It's been almost two months since the Jingzhou War, but have the reinforcements from Jiangnan ever come and go?
This big battle broke out very suddenly, so the soldiers and horses under the command of Pei Zilie and Li Xinchen, who had just started to attack, were not very large, but the follow-up troops who rushed from Shuzhong and Hanzhong to support were endless.
But the soldiers and horses here in Jingzhou are fighting a little less!
When did the imperial court have less suspicion of him, and before the war began, I don't know how many people were saying that Li Xinchen was coming, and he Xiao Maha was definitely the first to surrender.
Looking around, looking at those guards who had lost their fighting spirit, Xiao Maha could only sigh deeply. In any case, these robed brothers followed him to fight in all directions, and he could not bury the lives of so many people because of the thoughts of one person.
What's more, what Pei Zilie said just now also made Xiao Maha very uncomfortable.
After fighting for so long, family has really become a strange and distant term, but at this time, when I think about it, there is an indescribable warmth.
"In the first battle of Jiangling, countless soldiers died, and a certain person knew that he was guilty, but he begged to have a prison and lived his life." Xiao Maha said lightly, "You Uncle Yu and themΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· There's no mistake in you, and then it's up to you. β
Chen Yu and the others' eyes turned red again. And Pei Zilie was also stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that Xiao Maha was ordering himself as his father-in-law.
This shows that Xiao Maha has really let go.
"What did my father-in-law say," Pei Zilie couldn't help laughing, "If I really dare to lock you up, Xiao Boqing will have to rebel in the south, and I'm afraid I won't even be able to enter the house when I go home." You can rest assured that His Royal Highness has already arranged it, please go back to Shu to recuperate first, and then we will do it to the north, so please go out! β
Xiao Maha was a little stunned: "To the northΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Now Jiangnan has not been cleaned up, and when will it be to the north? β
"Soon." Pei Zilie said with a smile, looked up at the outside of the city, and continued to the north, not far from Ji Nancheng, where he once became famous with Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian, "When we first entered Jiangling, we didn't expect that there would be today. β
Xiao Maha was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what to say.
Yes, the first time I entered Gangneung, it seems that it was already a long time ago.
This time, it goes so fast.
ββββββββββββββ-
"Fourth brother, don't come unharmed." Standing at the foot of the steps, Chen Shuying, the king of Yuzhang, bowed his hand in a deep voice.
He was wearing filial piety clothes, with an indelible look of pathos on his face, in contrast, Chen Shujian only tied a black belt on his sleeves and a white cloth on his head, and did not wear linen and filial piety, of course, this is also because he rushed all the way back from Yuzhang County, almost non-stop, where can he take care of these cumbersome decorations.
"Third brother." Chen Shujian also hurriedly returned the salute, he didn't expect that it was the third brother who came to greet him.
Chen Shuying, the king of Yuzhang, is a well-known king of generosity and benevolence, but it is precisely because of his generosity and benevolence that he has not fought or grabbed, so he has not had any merits, and now he has only received a Southern Yuzhou (now Dangtu) assassin history, and there are not many generals under him, which is regarded as guarding the west gate of Jiankang Mansion.
After all, everyone knows that there is almost no danger to defend from Nanyu Prefecture to Jiankang Mansion, and if the enemy kills Nanyu Prefecture, it will be only one step away from the national break. Therefore, letting Chen Shuying, the king of Yuzhang, go to sit in Southern Yuzhou is just a formality and maintaining order on behalf of Southern Chen.
