Chapter 326: Pan Cheng surrendered
Qianhu suddenly laughed: "It seems that this red scarf thief is not as unbreakable as rumored!" ”
In the face of such sarcasm, Qian Ermian did not change his color, and responded gently: "The soldiers in the city are already at the bottom of the rations, and the people are panicking, plus that Li Tieniu, who doesn't know the height of the sky, actually went out of the city to fight without authorization, and ended up seriously injured and died. Pan Qianhu just told a few words of truth, but he was beaten for such a reason, how could this breath be swallowed in his stomach like this? Pan Qianhu said, as long as you can let him personally kill Liu Futong, the thief, you want his head afterwards, and he is willing to give it! ”
Qianhu sneered: "That's a nice word, how do I know if you will fully cooperate with me, just with a city defense map that I don't know if it's true or not?" ”
Qian Er said without thinking: "If the adults are not at ease, they will be held hostage here, and if Pan Qianhu can't fulfill his promise and make a repentance, you can take my head out of anger!" ”
Qianhu squinted and asked: "I can understand Pan Cheng's feelings about wanting to kill Liu Futong, but you and Liu Futong are innocent, I don't know what benefits Pan Cheng gave you to make you willing to risk your life?" ”
Qian Er laughed when he heard this, "I also did the history of the county government before joining the Red Turban Army, and I know that I can't do anything wrong with a big man like you, a villain doesn't seek to be rich and rich, as long as the outcome of this matter is beneficial to you, then you will definitely not treat me badly." ”
"He's a smart man!" Qianhu's attitude finally changed, and the last trace of defense in his heart was also relaxed: "Then in your opinion, when is the safest time for our army to attack the city?" ”
Treating the thousands of households who have already taken the bait, Qian Er's play is becoming more and more free: "Naturally, the sooner the better!" ”
Qianhu said with some confusion: "The sooner the better?" The city of Runing is already running out of food, what do I have to hurry? ”
Qian Er said meaningfully: "Because of this, shouldn't you have done it earlier?" Otherwise, if it takes a few days, Liu Futong will most likely surrender in Kaicheng...... When the time comes, you won't be able to get the first credit for breaking the city. ”
Qianhu narrowed his eyes when he heard this, Qian Er's words obviously spoke to his heart, he is now the celebrity in front of Gong Buban, if he can really get the credit for breaking the city, then he may even touch a trace of the military rank of the chief manager and even ten thousand households.
"I heard that person just said that Pan Qianhu in your mouth has now been reduced to a hundred households, even if he wants to stand on my side, how many people can listen to his orders?"
Qian Er smiled, "My lord, don't you know, although this Liu Futong is the nominal commander of the Red Turban Army, in fact, most of the departments are formed independently by thousands of households. In the case of the dead Li Qianhu, there are only more than 3,000 people in command, but the veterans of the Red Turban Army like Pan Qianhu can reach tens of thousands at most. Even if he is now reduced to 100 households by Liu Futong, his prestige is still there, and there are many that he dare not guarantee that there are still 3,000 soldiers loyal to him. ”
"Tens of thousands of people...... Yuan Bing Qianhu gasped and muttered: "These guys have a lot of ability to coax the people. ”
Qian Er smiled slightly, did not answer, leaving enough time for Qianhu to consider.
Qianhu thought for a long time before he spoke again: "The siege of the city is very important, I can't call the shots alone, you go down first and rest for the night, and I will give you an answer tomorrow." ”
Qian Er knew that it was not appropriate to continue urging, so he bowed down and followed the shadow guard outside the account to rest.
After he left, Qianhu's face was immediately covered with a layer of doubt, and he looked at Mu Chong, who had already gained his trust, and said, "Mu Qi, do you think this matter is feasible?" ”
"Based on what the two of them said, combined with the situation we have already mastered, it is not difficult to see that the red turban thief in Runing City has indeed returned to the sky, regardless of this Pan Cheng, the little one thinks that Liu Futong is indeed likely to go out of the city and surrender."
Qianhu nodded: "This Liu Futong's name has spread to the capital, as long as I can catch this thief, I am afraid that even today's saints will look down on me, and no matter what, I can't allow this credit to fall on others!" ”
Mu Chong followed his tone and asked, "Then my lord, ......what are your doubts?"
Qianhu sighed and said: "Although I was promoted to the leader of this outpost camp, Qianhu, but after all, it is just a small role, although I have the right to lead the outpost camp, but I don't have the right to directly lead the troops to attack......"
Mu Chong immediately understood what he meant, if Qianhu wanted to attack, he could only ask Gong Buban again, but he was worried that this credit that was enough to leave a name in history would eventually be robbed by the general.
"Adults are confused!" Mu Yuanran, who had figured out Qianhu's thoughts, changed his gentle tone and sighed with a cold face.
Qianhu frowned and asked, "How do you say this?" ”
Mu Chong said solemnly: "Although the villain was born in the countryside and does not understand the government, I also heard that the marshal of Henan who suppressed the rebellion this time is the younger brother of the real virtuous and virtuous!" You don't want to think about it, my lord, how can anyone send his own brother to fight a losing battle? ”
"You mean ......"
Mu Chong said eagerly: "Don't you understand? Although there are many of these red turban thieves, they don't even have weapons to take advantage of, they are just a group of rabble! In other words, this time the imperial court went south to Henan, and I was afraid that the final result would be the same if someone was sent as a marshal! The generalissimo in the rear is like this, so is General Gong Buban, and even you, everyone is here to grab the credit! ”
Qianhu felt that what Mu Chong said was reasonable: "You go on to ......"
Mu Chong paused and began to continue to attack his heart: "So, no matter how this Liu Futong is defeated, as long as this disaster is settled, then in the end, when the meritorious deeds are rewarded, the credit of this blade thief will fall on the heads of Marshal Yexian and General Gong Buban!" If you still want to take this credit for yourself at this time, then you are against these big people in the court! ”
After Mu Chong finished speaking, Qianhu was already covered with cold sweat, and secretly said that he was really blinded by this skill, just enjoying the credit of repelling the sneak attack of thieves has already caused many people to be dissatisfied, if he really played too important a role in this siege battle, it will only really lead to death in the future!
Qianhu took a few deep breaths, and looked at Mu Chong's eyes full of gratitude: "Mu Qi, Mu Qi!" You are really my benefactor, if it weren't for your reminder, I'm afraid that my life would almost be broken! ”
Mu Chong said with a smile: "Don't torture the villain, don't be a villain...... But then again, you can't grab the credit for capturing the thief's head, but isn't the credit for offering advice close at hand? ”
