In the dimly lit water prison, Han Jun, who was beaten with sticks and canes, has been spending the past few days, in addition to the severe pain on his body, he was trembling when he was slightly alarmed outside, and he was still worried that Gu Zhilong, who was angry, would drag them out at any time.

He was full of remorse in his heart, hatred was naturally hatred for Han Qian for using them as bait, regret was regret for serving him well in front of the concubine, with the concubine's secret help, why did he worry about flying Huang Tengda, what did he do when he came over to fight for this false fame?

"Bang", listening to the iron gate being pushed open from the outside, Han Jun's heart trembled, and when he saw more than a dozen soldiers walking in, his face was even more ashen, looking at a military general who looked like a captain coming over and signaling the jailer to open the prison door, Han Jun seemed to have been struck by lightning.

"Lord Thorn Shi has invited three Lord Han!" The general stood in front of the cell door, and his words were polite, but the fierce color in his eyes was eager to swallow the three people in this cell alive.

Han Jun only felt stiff, he was sitting on the ground at this moment, unable to move, was this going to drag them out and divide the corpses?

"I don't know which one Master Gu decided to give us to?" Han Daochang was quite calm, his hands and feet were locked with iron, and he moved to the door of the cell with difficulty and asked.

Gu Zhilong was furious, although he did not push them out and behead them, nor did he dismantle them into eight pieces, but in the past two days, he has not suffered less.

Han Daochang limped forward, his thigh was painful, and he suspected that he had received ten canes yesterday, and his left thigh bone had been cracked.

However, since Gu Zhilong didn't kill them, Han Daochang was not worried that they would have their lives now, and even more suspected that it might be that Han Qian's unauthorized use of troops against Lang Xi had been ruthlessly frustrated at this time, and Gu Zhilong was completely torn apart with Yue Yang this time, and there was no room for turning around and no scruples, at this time, he should make a choice between Anning Palace and Chuzhou, and send out the three generations of their ancestors and grandchildren as a letter of nomination or a gift.

"The kid from the third family should have already taken Langxi City," Han Wenhuan coughed violently, he was old and frail, and he couldn't withstand corporal punishment, Gu Zhilong had no intention of killing them with a rod for the time being, so he suffered the least, at this time, he tidied up his robe a little, walked to the prison door, and asked the general, "I don't know if it was Marquis Li or the military envoy Zhang Pingzhang arrived in Xuancheng?" ”

"Hey, hey!" The general just stared at Han Wenhuan coldly and smiled, without saying a word, and signaled left and right to drag Han Wenhuan, Han Daochang, and Han Jun's ancestors and grandsons out of the prison.

Seeing that his grandfather had imagined at this time that the Chishan Army had captured Langxi City and sent someone to negotiate, Han Jun endured the severe pain of being beaten in the back, and couldn't help but resent his grandfather, thinking that Han Qian, a wolf, had a heart and lungs, and hated his father and second uncle for not saving his father when he saw his father's death, and he was so rebellious that he used his uncle and ancestor as bait to lure Gu Zhilong and Yaying out of Langxi City, even if there was a slight possibility of taking Langxi City, how could he think of their lives?

They were taken out of the water prison, turned left and right in the streets and alleys, walked for a while, and were taken to a side courtyard in the east wing of the former residence of the Xuanzhou Thorn Mansion.

Seeing that Fu Mo's father and son, who were also beaten by torture, sat on the side of the hall and waited, Han Daochang was about to ask Fu Mo if he knew how the war in Langxi had developed in the past few days, when he heard the sound of footsteps outside, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Zhang Ping and Yuan Guowei walking in under the guidance of several soldiers.

Han Daochang was stunned: Did the Chishan Army really defeat Langxi City?

Han Jun was even more stiff as if he had been struck by lightning, and the appearance of Zhang Ping and Yuan Guowei meant that the thing he feared most would not happen, but seeing Han Qian's scenery, he had a hundredfold jealousy in his heart.

How could this miscellaneous capture Langxi City?

Han Jun even wanted to see Han Qian's defeat and death at this moment.

"Lord Han, Lord Han, and Lord Fu have suffered." Zhang Ping and Yuan Guowei glanced at the hall, stepped forward to salute Han Wenhuan, Han Daochang, Fu Mo and others, and said.

"It's okay, it's okay. The Chishan Army really captured Langxi, but the Chuzhou Army didn't send troops to reinforce Langxi? Han Wenhuan was quite calm, but he still felt a little unbelievable that the Chishan Army could capture Langxi City, and after thinking about it, he thought that it might be that the Chuzhou Army reacted late and did not have time to act, so that the Chishan Army had a chance to take Langxi City.

Han Daochang opened his mouth and muttered for a long time, and he didn't know what to ask.

"The day before yesterday, Langxi City was captured, and the Chuzhou army was also intercepted north of Nantangzhai and failed to go south," Zhang Ping said calmly, "Elder Yuan and I entered Xuancheng yesterday to see Gu Zhilong——"

Han Daochang, Han Jun, Fu Mo father and son opened their mouths and looked at Zhang Ping, it was unbelievable that the Chishan Army could still capture Langxi City when there were elite attacks on both sides, how weak were the defenders of Langxi City, and they held it for more than a day?

Han Wenhuan's spirits lifted slightly, and he asked, "So, Gu Zhilong agreed to serve Yueyang?" ”

"Elder Han is the envoy sent by His Royal Highness, and the specific matter of recruiting has to be made up of your own person, Elder Han, and this is also what Han Zhao's envoy insists on. It's just that Gu Zhilong hesitated for a day, and then agreed that we would see Boss Han first," Zhang Ping said, and then turned Fu Mo to arch his hand, "This matter has caused the rich boss to suffer, but if we can persuade Gu Zhilong to serve Yueyang, the merits of the rich family, we will definitely show His Highness!" ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Fu Mo said coldly, he was involved in an unwarranted disaster, and his life was almost lost, but no matter how angry he was in his heart, what could he say at this time?

Seeing that Han Daochang, Han Jun and Fu Mo's father and son were scarred, they must have suffered a lot in the past few days, Zhang Ping and Yuan Guowei insisted on calling the doctor in to apply medicine to them first, and then patiently and carefully told them about the current situation.

Although the Chuzhou army continued to reinforce troops and horses in Liyang City, it was not worried that they would be determined to move south in a short period of time.

Due to the extremely fast speed at which the Chishan army captured Langxi, the Huzhou soldiers did not react at all.

After Langxi City was captured and the Chuzhou army that intended to go south was repulsed, the Huzhou soldiers not only did not dare to send additional troops to the front line of Xianshan Lake and Jiudu Mountain, but were even worried that the Chishan Army might use troops on the western front of Huzhou, and yesterday abandoned Anji City, which is located at the northeast foot of Fuyu Mountain in the south of Xianshan Lake, and shrank the more than 3,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Anji back to Changxing City in the east.

This allowed the Akayama Army's forces on the Eastern Front to be mobilized at will to reinforce the Western Front.

At present, the Chishan Army is stationed in Nantang Village with 5,000 elite soldiers and horses, and Langxi City has sufficient grain and grass, Han Qian will Guangde School teachers and students, some reserve soldiers and horses, part of the female battalion, youth battalion generals and thousands of wounded soldiers from the three battlefields, a total of nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses have moved into Langxi City in the past two days.

In addition, Han Qian also gathered 6,000 soldiers and horses with Gao Shao and Zhao Wuji, and stationed at the southern foot of Magu Mountain and Xiaomiao Peak on the north bank of the Xiadu River, less than 20 miles away from Xuancheng, and also blocked the communication channel between Xuancheng and the north.

Han Qian sent Zhang Ping and Yuan Guowei to return Zhou Yuanhe and other prisoners of war to Xuancheng, but asked Gu Zhilong to make a decision to surrender or not to surrender within ten days, and if it was overdue, it would no longer accept negotiations, and the Chishan army would consider continuing to use troops in the hinterland of Xuanzhou - even if Xuancheng would not be attacked immediately, it would be enough to make Gu Zhilong uncomfortable if he cut off the communication between Xuancheng and the counties in the south.

"Ten days

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Want Gu Zhilong to surrender? Han Daochang asked, "Does Han Qian have any additional conditions?" ”

"Today is the third day, and Han Zhao said that Master Han and Lord Han were appointed by His Highness to surrender, and everything was discussed from the frame given by His Highness, and he had no right to interfere." Zhang Ping said.

Even if Han Daochang knew that the situation was stronger than people, he had nothing to do with his nephew who should be killed, but at this time, he couldn't help but ask angrily: "He used us as bait to lure Gu Zhilong out of Langxi, so that he could use troops against Langxi, what do we say at this time, how can Gu Zhilong believe it?" ”

"If Boss Han and Lord Han knew the righteousness in advance, in order to promote peace and surrender by fighting, they would not hesitate to use their bodies as bait to lure Gu Zhilong into being deceived, I believe that the words of Boss Han and Lord Han would still have weight at this time." There are only Fu Mo's father and son in the room, Zhang Ping patiently induced Han Daochang to say.

"This erector is stingy with feathers and reputation at this time, but his behavior of treating his uncle and ancestor as fish and meat can really hide it from the world?" No matter how good Han Daochang's temper was, at this time, the blue muscles on his forehead jumped with anger, and he almost asked in a low voice.

Han Jun was so angry that his brows jumped, he didn't expect them to be betrayed by Han Qian, not to mention that they would have to cover up the ten heinous sins for him today, and asked hatefully: "Could it be that we were murdered by Han Qian, and we can't go out to complain?" ”

Zhang Ping and Yuan Guowei glanced at each other, sat aside, ignored Han Daochang and Han Jun who were still angry for the time being, and said to Han Wenhuan: "The Chishan Army is too difficult, 300,000 old and weak women and children, the daily rations can be caught by the hands of infants and children, and dozens of people are swollen and starved to death every day. At this time, the Chishan army was Langxi Lang, and the troops were strong, so that the Chuzhou army did not dare to attack south, and the passage to the north of Xuanzhou was sealed, and Gu Zhilong only had a dead end if he did not surrender......"

"There are still more than 10,000 elites in Xuanzhou at this time, not to mention, they can continue to recruit troops and buy horses, and the Chishan Army is really going to attack, so they are not afraid of their own teeth?" Fu Mo said angrily, "I heard that the Chishan Army attacked Langxi City, and the casualties were not small!" ”

"Yes, the casualties of the Chishan Army this time are not small, but it is also a fact that the generals used their lives to kill the Chuzhou army and did not dare to go south, and it is also a fact that Gu Zhilong only dared to shrink into Xuancheng and did not dare to cross the Xiadu River," Zhang Ping arched his hand towards Fu Mo and said, "If Gu Zhilong and the Zhujia do not surrender this time, the Chishan Army will have to attack the city again at that time, and Han Zhaozhi will not strictly restrict military discipline in order to make up for the heavy casualties of the generals." Of course, when Lord Fu helped persuade Gu Zhilong, he could speak a little more ruthlessly......"

Fu Mo's face turned pale, and he was speechless by Zhang Ping.

Since ancient times, in order to reward and compensate the generals after the war, it is common for the army to plunder, and Zhang Ping hinted that Han Qian's behavior at that time may be more ruthless, is it necessary to slaughter the family gate valve in Xuanzhou?

Fu Mo thought that with Han Qian's ruthlessness, there might not be no such possibility, thinking that his rich family was currently a meritorious man in Yueyang, and it seemed that there was no need to stand in Yueyang again for the sake of momentary anger, and stand on the opposite side of the Chishan Army.

At this time, the Chishan Army is no longer the ragged and unfed rabble they saw before the war! At this time, it is the mighty Chishan Army, and it is the shining and rising Chishan Army!

Han Wenhuan pondered for a long time, sighed, and said to Zhang Ping: "At this time, if you want to say that Gu Zhilong will surrender, and if you want him to let go of his vigilance against the Chishan Army and Han Qian, it is probably impossible to persuade him to give up his military power, and Han Qian has no problem with this?" ”

"Under the framework given by His Royal Highness, how to talk to Gu Zhilong is all decided by Lord Han and Lord Han." Zhang Ping said.
