In the early morning of the next day, Hou Dejing surrendered the city and personally came out to welcome the army into the city.

After the team was settled, Luo Taibai summoned Hou Dejing at the county office.

As a general, Hou Dejing is also quite self-aware, and when he entered the county office, he knelt down and said to the minister: "General Hou Dejing, all the 11,000 soldiers and horses in the command department will return to Yong'an, and he is willing to serve the Taishou Lord in the future." ”

"Get up." Luo Taibai sat on the main seat, staring at Hou Dejing coldly: "I heard that Zhuang Wei has been taken down by you, what about others?" ”

Hou Dejing got up and waved his hand, and someone outside the county office immediately brought Zhuang Wei, who was tied up with five flowers.

Zhuang Wei, who was full of dissatisfaction, was forced to the ground, twisting his head and still refusing to compromise.

Seeing this, Luo Taibai scolded with a cold face: "Zhuang Wei, you led the troops to commit my Yong'an, causing many people in the territory to suffer because of this, and now you have become a prisoner of the ranks, but you still have something to say?" ”

"Hmph, become a king and defeat a king, kill if you want to kill, why talk nonsense!" Zhuang Wei knelt on the ground and snorted coldly, his attitude was still as strong as ever.

Luo Taibai picked up the shocking wood and patted the case a few times: "Okay, originally I Yong'an was the time to use people, seeing that you have the ability to command the army, I still want to open the net, since you have nothing to say, then I will fulfill you, left and right, drag me down and behead!" ”

"Don't, Luo Changshi!" Hou Dejing knelt down and pleaded: "I beg Luo Changshi to raise his noble hand and let General Zhuang go, in the final analysis, he is the same as General Zhuang, this time he is just following orders, and he has never been sad for the people of Yong'an after entering Yong'an, and he also asks Luo Changshi to open up his face and spare General Zhuang's life!" ”

"Hou Dejing, you don't have to pretend to plead here, your head has a big scar, and Lao Tzu will not be a general even if he dies!" Zhuang Wei scolded angrily, without any sense of appreciation.

Hou Dejing said with a bitter face: "Why are you so hard, a manly man, with a useful body, isn't it good to gallop on the battlefield in the future?" Why do you have to die? ”

"Hmph, such an unfaithful thing as betraying the Lord and defecting to the enemy, I Zhuang can't do it!"

"You!" Hou Dejing's face turned black when he was choked by these words, but he didn't know how to refute it.

Zhuang Wei didn't talk nonsense, and took the initiative to get up and walk towards the outside of the county office, but he was willing to die.

In the hall, Luo Taibai, Lin Xiaodao and others glanced at each other, and they all had a good impression of Zhuang Wei, who would rather die than give in.

Luo Taibai glanced at Lin Xiaodao, they had already discussed it before, if Zhuang Wei was willing to compromise, of course, it would be the best, but if he would rather die than surrender, then he had to use some strategy.

Lin Xiaodao nodded in understanding, and quietly followed the guards and retreated.

Not long after, Zhuang Wei was escorted to the entrance of the vegetable market, the executioner was already in place, seeing that the knife was about to fall, Lin Xiaodao suddenly came out and shouted: "Keep people under the knife!" ”

Everyone looked confused, even Zhuang Wei, who was lying there with his neck straightened.

To tell the truth, loyalty to the Lord is faithfulness, but when it really comes to the moment when the head is about to land, I am indeed quite panicked.

Originally, this was just a matter of going down with a knife, and it was over when it passed, but now that I was being troubled like this, my heart suddenly became empty.

Zhuang Wei glared at Lin Xiaodao indignantly, it was not the first time they had contact with each other, and they were not strangers.

Lin Xiaodao rushed forward, knelt down on one knee beside Zhuang Wei, and untied him with his hands.

"What do you mean by that?" Zhuang Wei asked puzzled.

Lin Xiaodao sighed faintly and said: "General Zhuang is brave and loyal, he is a man, as early as the battle of Hemen, Lin had the intention to make friends with General Zhuang, but you and I are our masters, destined to be incompatible, now General Zhuang has fallen into such a situation, Lin is also unbearable, while there is still a chance now, you should run for your life." ”

"This ......" Zhuang Wei was a little confused: "Since it wasn't Luo Changshi who ordered me to be released, how could General Lin dare to act like this, isn't he afraid that Luo Changshi will blame?" ”

"Leave that alone." Lin Xiaodao picked up Zhuang Wei and said with an indifferent face: "If Luo Changshi really wants to blame, it's a big deal to return my head to him." ”

"How's that going to work!"

"Don't say so much, you should leave quickly, if you don't leave, it will be too late!"

The two of them gave in here, and Zhuang Wei hesitated for a while.

In fact, he is not stupid, Lin Xiaodao is not related to him, and he will not risk his life to save him at all.

The traces of this solicitation are also too obvious.

It's just that he is like this, he eats soft and not hard, Lin Xiaodao is willing to protect him with his life, whether it is true or false, if he just leaves, he will definitely have an uneasy conscience in the future.

"It's okay, Zhuang will go back with General Lin." Zhuang Wei glanced at the guillotine, sighed, and finally couldn't muster up the courage to die again.

……

With the defeat of Jing Ce in Yong'an, the two generals under his command Zhuang Wei and Hou Dejing surrendered one after another, and this battle came to a complete end.

But the battle is over, and the relevant rumors are boiling in the outside world, especially when a famous person died in this battle, and the topic is even higher.

However, the attitudes of various forces towards Jing Ce Nian's death are completely different.

Some people are sneering, some are angry at their misfortunes, and some are accusing and invective.

Of course, more people have noticed Chen Ziqian, who has risen rapidly in the past six months.

The evaluation of a dead person is obviously meaningless, but it is different for the living Chen Ziqian, who is a young man who defeated Jing Ce Nian.

With such a young man's control over a county and such a proud record, if this is allowed to develop, it will inevitably be a big hidden danger to all princes in the future.

At the height of the princes' level, most of the superiors are still quite far-sighted, even if they are as reckless as the king, they attach great importance to Chen Ziqian, which shows how popular Chen Ziqian is now.

The imperial court did not intend to let go of this matter, and even issued an obituary to spread the word to the world, smearing Chen Ziqian, which invisibly gave the tired imperial court a wave of existence, so that the world could see that the imperial court was still there, and without Fang Shi's party, Da Yan was still the same Da Yan, and it was not a problem to resist hundreds of thousands of rebels outside the imperial city.

The imperial court got a correct name, but Chen Ziqian's name was nailed to the position of a chaotic minister and thief, and he was subjected to all kinds of accusations and abuse.

What betrayal of the court, disloyalty and injustice, occupation of Yong'an, self-styled and rebellious, even the father who has been dead for more than half a year has been dug up to say something, and the name of the chaotic minister and thief is not running.

But no matter how the outside world spreads and scolds, Chen Ziqian still acts like a nobody in the Yongan County Mansion, and continues to deploy important military and political affairs.

Affected by Jing Ce Nian and those stragglers, the economy of all counties in the territory has been hit by a huge blow, and the loss of people's support is also extremely serious.

After all, it is a position of Taishou that is not rightly won by the name, and it is impossible for everyone to return to the heart of the county's millions of people.

Coupled with the recent rumors, in such a sensitive situation, once the war breaks out again, Yong'an is afraid that it will not be far from collapse.

Ordinary people can't afford to withstand the ravages of repeated wars, and Chen Ziqian must make some achievements to stabilize the people's hearts.

Fortunately, at present, the history of Tongzhou has not returned, and Wang Zibo and Chu Taiyuan in Ningzhou are too busy to take care of this side, let alone Huaihua, and now Chen Ziqian should snicker if he doesn't take the initiative to trouble them.

Yong'an can be peaceful for a while, taking this opportunity, Chen Ziqian decided to consolidate the domestic defense, and strive to defend Yong'an into an iron bucket before the foreign enemy attacked!
