After hearing Hou Sheng's words, Zhou Fen's expression moved slightly, and after thinking for a while, he still spoke before Hou Sheng was dragged out of the room.

"Wait, bring him back first."

So Hou Sheng returned to his position.

Zhou Fen stared at Hou Sheng and said in a deep voice: "Then Li Mu is really so kind and allows me to return to Linzi with the army?" ”

Although reason told Zhou Fen that the possibility of such a thing was very small, Zhou Fen still decided to give it a try.

On the one hand, it is to comply with Qi Wangjian's orders, and on the other hand, in the current situation that Linzi is surrounded, the strategic significance of Gaowan City has disappeared, and if you can gather troops to hold Linzi, it is also a good choice.

Therefore, Zhou Fen is willing to temporarily stay for the sake of this possibility.

Hou Sheng straightened up, glanced at the rope on his body, and said with a smile: "I've been tied for so long, my hands are a little numb, and I don't want to talk too much." ”

Zhou Fen snorted and said, "General Kuang Liang, untie him." ”

Hou Sheng, who had regained his physical freedom, moved his limbs and sighed very satisfied: "I think I have never been tied up for such a long time since I was born, and sure enough, the free air is so sweet." ”

Zhou Fen interrupted Hou Sheng's chatter: "Let's get down to business." ”

Hou Sheng glanced at Zhou Fen with some unfinished eyes, and then said: "The Governor of Dadu said that as long as Gaowan City is handed over, you can take 100,000 people to leave this place and go to Linzi, and he will order someone to let go of the east side of the city and let you leave ......."

"It's just gibberish!" Zhou Fen took the case and shouted: "100,000 people? He Li Mu really dares to think about it! ”

You must know that there are 200,000 defenders in Gaowan City now, and if you count the residents in the city, the number will be even more, but now Li Mu is only willing to let Zhou Fen take away 100,000 people, doesn't this mean that the remaining 100,000 people will be pocketed by Li Mu effortlessly?

Where in the world is there such a good thing?

Zhou Fen snorted heavily, and said to Kuang Liang: "General Kuang Liang, I'm tired of General Ru's ......"

"Bang!" Hou Sheng slapped the table heavily and shouted at Zhou Fen: "Zhou Fen, can't you still see the current situation clearly?" You should know what the consequences of going out of the city and fighting with the Zhao army in the field, if you really go out of the city, then these 200,000 people will not even be able to return to Linzi! Now that 100,000 people are able to go back, what are you not satisfied with? Or is it that you are planning to disobey the order of the King of Qi and prepare not to return to the division to rescue Linzi? ”

Zhou Fen glanced at Hou Sheng coldly, and said: "Whether I go back to the division to rescue Linzi, this is not to worry about you, anyway, you can't see that day." ”

Hou Sheng sneered: "Hmph, Zhou Fen, Zhou Fen, don't think that I don't know what you're thinking." You just think that I am just a general, but you are a great loyal minister who can live and die with the country, right? I will tell you today that you are completely wrong in thinking like this! ”

"I don't believe you haven't assessed the current situation of the war, and with your current situation, defeat is a matter of time. It will be easy for you to die when the time comes, but have you ever thought that at that time, the 200,000 Great Qi soldiers and civilians in this city will die because of your decision? ”

Zhou Fen was silent, but his slightly trembling fingers had obviously betrayed his heart.

Hou Sheng continued: "You don't think it's good for me to surrender, right? But I surrendered, and the 20,000 soldiers who followed me at least did not have to face death, at least I saved their lives, and their fathers, elders, wives and children could wait for their safe return. Come back safely, Zhou Qing! Do you know how many men in this era have never returned since they stepped out of their homes to join the army? ”

Zhou Fen finally couldn't help it, and retorted coldly: "This war was not provoked by me and Daqi, it was the people of Zhao who chose to lead the first prisoner, and we have no choice!" ”

"Nope." Hou Sheng shook his head and said very seriously: "You have a choice, of course you have a choice." As long as Zhao unifies the world, then there will be no more mutual conquest between the people of China, and there will be no more wars in the world! ”

"Peace, Zhou Qing! How many years has it been since there has been peace in the country of Qi? Have you not seen the misery of the families where your father and brother died? Behind these 200,000 soldiers, there are 200,000 families! Compared with these lives and the survival of these families, does it really matter who will be the ruler of this land? ”

Hou Sheng took a deep breath and said to Zhou Fen in front of him very seriously: "So, for the sake of the people of Daqi, for the future of Daqi, please Zhou Qing - surrender!" Stop making senseless resistance, stop paying senseless sacrifices, there's no point in doing it anymore! ”

There was silence in the room.

In a moment, Zhou Fen's facial muscles suddenly trembled slightly, and a smile slowly appeared.

For some reason, Hou Sheng looked at Zhou Fen's smile, and a chill suddenly surged in his heart.

"Yes, very good. Houqing, Houqing, what you said, I think it was Li Mu who taught you, right? If it were someone else, maybe I would have been impressed by you, but—"

The corners of Zhou Fen's mouth curled up in an arc very obviously, and he looked at Hou Sheng in front of him with an extremely mocking expression: "Hou Sheng, you, the corpse vegetarian meal, have never cared about the people of Daqi, and only know that the lucky villain who welcomes the king is qualified to talk so much in front of me, and say so unashamedly for the sake of the people of Daqi?" ”

Hou Sheng's face changed.

Zhou Fen suddenly stood up and grabbed Hou Sheng's collar, his figure was taller than Hou Sheng, so he lifted Hou Sheng up all of a sudden.

"Houqing, what I want to tell you is that your acting skills are really very bad."

Hou Sheng's face became even more ugly, and a strange light suddenly flashed from his eyes.

"Zhou Qing, it's not me who said you, if you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light now, then it should be ......."

Zhou Fen slapped Hou Sheng's face hard, interrupting Hou Sheng's words.

Two teeth mixed with blood flew out of his mouth with Hou Sheng's scream, and Hou Sheng covered his face and staggered back, hitting the wall before stopping.

Zhou Fen looked at Hou Sheng with a sneer, and said coldly: "Enough Hou Sheng, you, a traitor scum who has no king, no father, no home and no country, I will not listen to any of your nonsense anymore, today is your death!" ”

Hou Sheng raised his head, laughed miserably, opened his bloody mouth and said, "You really don't surrender? ”

Zhou Fen laughed and said, "I should live and die with Gao Wancheng and Daqi!" Thou ......"

A sharp knife pierced through Zhou Fen's chest and back, causing all his next words to come to an abrupt halt.
