As soon as Zhou Nan entered the city gate, he was grabbed by the arms of the soldiers on both sides, and several people came up and tied Zhou Nan firmly with ropes. Zhou Nan didn't resist either, and said with a slight smile: "It is said that Pharmacist Guo is a hero, but he turned out to be a coward. ”

A brightly armored soldier said, "Offended." Please. As he spoke, he took the lead in the front.

Four soldiers were distributed in front and behind Zhounan, and a group of six people walked north along the street from the south gate. There are few pedestrians on the street, even if someone is passing by, it is only strange to see Zhou Nan like this.

Walked to an east-west street, and turned west. When he turned the corner, Zuo Xiaosi shrank on the side of the street and looked at Zhou Nan and a few people, Zhou Nan only had time to shake his head slightly to Zuo Xiaosi, and then flashed by.

Walking to a large mansion, there are three big characters on the red lacquer gate: Left-behind mansion. There were four armored sergeants standing at the door, and several people did not stop, and after entering the mansion, they passed through another door, and this was the hall of the mansion.

Zhou Nan looked from a distance and saw several generals sitting on the left and right in the hall, and there were two rows of soldiers standing outside the hall, all of whom were brightly dressed and armored, just like the soldier who led the way.

"General, the messenger of the letter brought it." The soldier leading the way walked into the lobby and said.

"Pass him in." A voice said.

Zhou Nan was not afraid, nor did he need to be supported by the soldiers around him, and walked straight to the lobby.

"Whoever comes by name." It was the middle-aged man sitting in the middle of the lobby who spoke, and Zhou Nan was still wondering in his heart: Is this person Pharmacist Guo? I saw that this person had a thin face and a hooked nose, and his face was full of joy and anger.

Zhou Nan asked and replied: "I am a subordinate of Yizhou Kochizhou, surnamed Zhou Mingnan, and I am a small capital of Yizhou Infantry Army, and I came to send a letter to Guo Liushou on the order of Lord Gao. I don't know what the above adult is called? ”

A military general sitting next to him shouted: "Bold! The upper seat is the general Jinwu and the Lord Guo who stayed in Zhuozhou. ”

Zhou Nanwei bowed down and said, "As the saying goes: those who don't know are not to blame. The villain doesn't know the general Huwei, so he asks General Guo to forgive him. ”

Pharmacist Guo smiled a little and said, "It's sharp-toothed." Zhou Dutou, do you know what errand your tall family wants you to do in Zhuozhou? ”

Zhou Nan replied: "The tall man sent the little one to General Guo in Zhuozhou to borrow some grain and rice here to solve the urgent need." ”

Pharmacist Guo still smiled and said, "Borrow grain? Suddenly, he slapped the table and shouted, "I think I'm here to borrow the city, right?" ”

Zhou Nan was shocked, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, and asked in deliberate surprise: "What does General Guo mean by this?" The villain does not understand. ”

"You Yizhou voted for the Southern Dynasty, do you still want to send me, Zhuozhou, to the Southern People? What is not a borrowed city? Pharmacist Guo asked with a sneer.

Zhou Nan's mind was racing at this time, Yizhou had just leveled the prison army last night, and he only helped Gao Feng to manage the city defense of Yizhou this morning, how did this Guo pharmacist know the news so quickly? Presumably, this Pharmacist Guo has just heard some news, and he doesn't know the specific things yet. It seems that his plan is about to change, anyway, his original plan was only to borrow grain to get close to Pharmacist Guo.

"General Guo said, the villain doesn't understand, if General Guo is unwilling to borrow food, he will take someone to reply to Master Gao empty-handed. If General Guo is willing to solve the danger of Yizhou, he will give grain and rice, and the villain will thank General Guo first. Zhou Nan pretended to be confused and said.

Guo Yaoshi stood up suddenly, and shouted: "You man, you are talking nonsense, drag me out and behead me." ”

Zhou Nan suddenly jumped forward a few steps, crossed the several generals sitting on both sides, and shouted loudly in front of Guo Yaoshi: "I am the head of the Yizhou infantry army at the border pass of the Southern Dynasty recently, and I am not under the control of your Zhuozhou, and I will be beheaded, but you don't want the lives of you and your brothers?" ”

The two soldiers who were escorting Zhou Nan hurriedly came up to say that Zhou Nan had come back, and Guo Yaoshi was furious and said to a personal soldier behind him: "You take this guy out and behead it!" Seeing that the pro-soldier was at a loss, Guo Yaoshi grabbed the pro-soldier's arm and shouted, "Why don't you go quickly?!" Only then did the pro-soldier come to his senses, commanded the two soldiers who were escorting Zhou Nan, took Zhou Nan out, and walked outside the mansion.

Zhang Linghui couldn't help asking: "Big brother, is it inappropriate to behead like this?" ”

Still angry, Pharmacist Guo asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhang Linghui said: "Big brother, no matter what you say, this person is from Yizhou, if Yizhou does not rebel, then this person can be regarded as a comrade; If Yizhou has rebelled, then this person is a soldier who was surrendered by the Southern Dynasty, I'm afraid that it is not okay for us to defect to the Southern Dynasty? ”

Guo Yaoshi snorted coldly and said: "The Southern Dynasty has been longing for the land of Yanyun for more than a hundred years, and it is something that he can't ask for in the Southern Dynasty if we can sacrifice the city and surrender, how can we miss a major event because of a surrendered capital?" There is no need to persuade this matter anymore, just disperse. ”

Zhen Wuchen hurriedly asked, "The people brought by this guy are still outside the city, how to deal with them?" ”

Guo Yaoshi groaned slightly, and said: "I'll send people to bring those people into the city, hehe...... " Guo Yaoshi said again: "No one is allowed to spread the news of the people coming to Yizhou today, so as not to shake the heart of the army, and then don't blame me for not being emotional!" After saying that, he ignored the people in the synagogue and went back to the inner house by himself.

Zhang Linghui, Zhen Wuchen and others had to walk out from the lobby of the left-behind mansion one by one.

"What do you say happened to Big Brother today? If you have to kill this person, what you said makes sense, second brother. Zhen Wuchen asked Zhang Linghui beside him as he walked.

Zhang Linghui smiled bitterly: "Big brother is usually the closest to you, you should ask big brother." ”

Zhen Wuchen said unhappily: "Second brother, my junior five treats the three elder brothers the same, how can you say this about me?" Isn't it for the sake of the four of us brothers? ”

Zhang Linghui hurriedly explained: "Little Wu, the second brother can't figure it out, even if you don't borrow food, you can also ask about Yizhou, why do you have to kill it?!" ”

Zhen Wuchen said to himself: "Doesn't the eldest brother want to defect to the Southern Dynasty? That's not right, did you just say that you want to find someone to refer? ”

The three of them couldn't think of the reason, and when they came out of the house and came to the street, Liu Sunchen said: "It's just a head, kill and kill, fuck it!" Second brother, I'll be the east, go to the drunken flower building tonight, don't get drunk and don't return! ”

As soon as Zhang Linghui heard "Drunken Flower Building", he immediately became interested and said: "I haven't been there for several days, and it's itchy to be told by you; Little Five, are you going? He knew that Zhen Wuchen didn't like women the most, but he still asked.

Sure enough, Zhen Wuchen shook his head and said, "What's the fun?" It's better to drink and play. ”

The three of them said goodbye, Zhang Linghui and Liu Sunchen went south, and Zhen Wuchen went west, and went their separate ways.

Zhen Wuchen walked for a while, looked back, and saw that Zhang Linghui and the others had long been gone, Zhen Wuchen turned to the north, turned into an alley, and walked briskly north.
