Zhou Fen's eyes widened, and he looked at Kuang Liang in front of him in disbelief.

Kuang Liang held the knife in his right hand, and the sharp long knife had completely submerged into Zhou Fen's heart, even if it was Tai Yishen, he was afraid that he would not be able to return to the sky.

"You ......" Zhou Fen only had time to say such a word, and the vitality of the whole person was completely cut off.

Kuang Liang sighed and said softly, "Zhou Qing, I'm sorry. ”

Kuang Liang slowly put down Zhou Fen's corpse.

Kuang Liang pulled out his knife from Zhou Fen's heart, and then turned his head to see Hou Sheng.

Hou Sheng sat in the corner of the wall, watching all this quietly, and looked at Kuang Liang with a very calm face.

Kuang Liang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, it's not a good idea for you to venture into the city like this. ”

Hou Sheng grinned, and a few hideous expressions couldn't help but appear on his face: "Tian Jian killed my eldest son, I can't wait to see the Qi Kingdom fall immediately, even if it takes a little risk, what's the matter?" ”

Kuang Liang stretched out his hand and helped Hou Sheng to sit up.

Hou Sheng casually wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and said to Kuang Liang in a voice that was still a little leaky: "It's all arranged?" ”

Kuang Liang nodded and said, "When I knew that the king had entered the city, I had already gathered people. If all else goes unexpected, the situation should be under control by now. ”

Although the door was closed, the two of them could still hear the sound of swords intersecting and shouting killing outside the door, and it was obvious that the Qi army camp outside was not calm.

Hou Sheng listened attentively, and said to Kuang Liang: "Don't worry, I have already told the Governor of Dadu, this time I can break through Gaowan City, you will have great contributions, and the credit you should have will not be missing." ”

Kuang Liang's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said: "Thank you so much." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

What Zhou Fen, who died tragically in the room, didn't know was that in fact, as early as when Zhou Fen had not yet ascended the throne, Hou Sheng already had plans to join Zhao Guo.

And Kuang Liang, who is one of Hou Sheng's henchmen, also participated in the top secret meeting held above Hou Sheng's mansion.

After Hou Sheng lost power, the two secretly met and made a decisive decision, letting Kuang Liang put on a posture of breaking with Hou Sheng, so as to continue to stay in the Qi army and help Hou Sheng grasp military power.

Hou Sheng, who has been a prime minister for many years, knows very well that only by holding the army in his hands can he have the opportunity to make a comeback in the future.

It turned out that the victory was successful.

Kuang Liang won Zhou Fen's trust and became the deputy general of the Qi army, and has been doing this job conscientiously, completely dispelling Zhou Fen's suspicions with many minor injuries and not getting out of the line of fire.

During this time, Zhou Fen handed over most of the specific military affairs in Gaowan City to Kuang Liang to be responsible, which also gave Kuang Liang the opportunity to secretly plant his own men in various key parts.

Until today, Hou Sheng's entry into the city finally allowed Kuang Liang to find an opportunity, and Kuang Liang did not hesitate, and directly chose to launch.

There was a rush of footsteps, followed by a cry from outside the door: "General, General! ”

Hou Sheng looked at Kuang Liang, and Kuang Liang showed a smile to Hou Sheng: "It's my people." ”

Hou Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

The door was opened, and Hou Sheng and Kuang Liang walked out one after another.

Outside the gate was a courtyard where it was clear that there had been a fierce battle, and dozens of Qi soldiers fell to the ground, most of them Zhou Fen's personal guards.

Kuang Liang asked a Qi general in front of him, "Have they all succeeded?" ”

General Qi said with a smile: "Most of them have succeeded, only the armory has been discovered, but please rest assured, I have sent more people to go, and it is estimated that good news will come back soon." ”

Kuang Liang also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said, "Okay, you can go to the city with me now." ”

After a while, the people came to the city.

One after another Qi generals or officers gathered here, they were all from Kuang Liang's side, and they all carried one or several heads in their hands, needless to say, they also knew that those heads were from Zhou Fen's side.

About half an hour later, the last general of Qi came in a hurry and reported to Kuang Liang the news he most wanted to hear: "General, the armory has been taken, and all those who try to resist have been executed!"

When Kuang Liang heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long breath.

At this point, all the important areas in the entire Gaowan City are already under Kuang Liang's control.

Although there may be some diehard Zhou Fen diehards in some places who are stubbornly resisting, it has nothing to do with the overall situation at all.

Kuang Liang glanced at Hou Sheng beside him, and was still a little hesitant.

Hou Sheng saw Kuang Liang's entanglement, and said in a low voice: "General Kuang Liang, how to exchange a few wives and concubines and sons in Linzi City for the hundred-year wealth of the Kuang family, how to choose, presumably General Kuang Liang should know in his heart." ”

These words obviously moved Kuang Liang, Kuang Liang gritted his teeth, and finally gave an order: "Come on, open the city gate and raise the white flag!" ”

The city gate was opened, the flag of Qi was slowly lowered, and a white flag fluttered high in the sky above Gaowan City.

In the camp of the Zhao army outside the city, Li Mu, who was quietly watching all this, smiled and said to Zhao Kuo beside him: "General Zhao Kuo must have known by now, why did I order the siege to be suspended today, right?" ”

Zhao Kuo, who was standing beside Li Mu, had an admiring expression on his face and said, "How does the Grand Governor know that this victory will definitely succeed?" ”

"Definitely?" Li Mu smiled and said, "Where is there anything certain in this world? It's just that judging from Hu Yiwei's intelligence, Hou Sheng has always been greedy for money and power, and he is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. The fact that such a person was willing to risk his way into Gaowan City proved that he had a great grasp of what he was going to do next. Since Hou Sheng can gamble with his life to such a certainty, then why not give Hou Sheng a day? Okay, let's send 10,000 people into the city to take over the order in the city. ”

Watching the soldiers of the Zhao army march into Gaowan City in groups, Li Mu couldn't help but let out a long breath.

In fact, Li Mu knew very well in his heart that even if Gao Wancheng did not surrender now, then it would take another one to two months at most, and he would be able to defeat this city.

But now such a result is undoubtedly better for Li Mu, after all, if Gaowan City is taken one day earlier, then the soldiers of the Zhao army will be able to suffer fewer casualties.

Under this bright sunshine, Li Mu turned his head to look at the horizon in the east, and thought silently in his heart: "Next, you only need to take Linzi." ”
