Chapter 872: Capturing Xiao Mo
Although she was faintly happy in her heart, Ning Zhen still said coldly with a stiff face: "This trip is on the orders of the official, these are just what I should do, and I really don't deserve a word of thanks." ”
Zhi Zhaoyan smiled and said: "Even if he is ordered to do it, he is also the benefactor of our husband and wife." ”
After speaking, she turned her gaze to Xiao Mo, who was still trapped in the formation by the Zhenwu soldiers, and said with a sneer: "Privy Envoy Xiao, Your Excellency's reinforcements have left, it is better to admit defeat and surrender, I will definitely be treated as a guest, and there will be no slightest slack, I don't know what you think?" ”
Xiao Mo thought about it with a dark face, and suddenly let out a long sigh and threw away the weapon in his hand, obviously not ready to continue to resist stubbornly.
Zhi Zhao bowed his head slightly, and glanced at Huang Yao, who immediately understood and personally stepped forward to tie Xiao Mo tightly.
In this process, Xiao Mo did not have the slightest expression of fear on his face, but looked at Zhi Zhao with a sneer, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
At this moment, the east wants to dawn, and the mountains and rivers covered by ice and snow have gradually opened up.
After a night of hard work, Zhe Zhao did not order everyone to leave, but set up camp to rest until tomorrow and then make plans.
Zhi Weiben and Yi Zuo envoys were one of the collaborators of the enemy and the other of the Ming thieves, and they should be escorted back to Luoyang to listen to the interrogation of the imperial court, and Zhi Zhao ordered Huang Yao to put these two people in a big tent and take care of them.
As for Xiao Mo, it is a very big problem for Zhezhao.
The main reason is that at present, Daqi and Liao are still in the period of peace talks and truce, Xiao Mo, as the privy envoy of the Southern Yuan, has been negligent in entering the territory of Daqi, and has bad intentions towards Cui Wenqing, but from the perspective of the truce between the two countries, it is not a crime to death.
Perhaps the imperial court, under pressure from the Liao State, would directly release him as a condition for a truce and a strike.
When Zhi Zhao told Cui Wenqing about these troubles in his heart, Cui Wenqing couldn't help laughing: "Lady, logically speaking, we really don't have the power to deal with Xiao Mo, but we don't have the right to deal with Xiao Mo, but if you don't accept the orders of the monarch outside, don't you know how to think of a way?" ”
Zhi Zhao was stunned, and asked with a surprised smile: "Husband Jun is wise, is there any good way?" ”
Cui Wenqing smiled: "We really can't touch him, but if he is not honest after being captured, he wants to escape or assassinate his mother, and accidentally dies in the chaos, even if the official family knows, there is nothing to be done." ”
Zhi Zhao immediately understood what Cui Wenqing meant, stared at him and said in a deep voice: "Husband, this is a big crime of bullying the king!" ”
Cui Wenqing said solemnly: "Becoming a big thing is not informal, and it is the blessing of the people in my Daqi to strangle this great Liao military god, although the crime is in one person, but it is beneficial to the people." ”
Zhi Zhao suddenly smiled and nodded, "That's right." ”
"Besides, lady, as long as you don't say it, I won't say it, who knows that we deliberately let that Xiao Mo die?"
"Isn't there another Ning Zhen? She is the confidant of the official family. ”
"Hehe, if it's Ning Zhen, don't worry, that girl is indeed strong in martial arts and loyal to the official family, but she is not a person who eats the ancients, and as long as I Cui Wenqing conspires, it is not easy to hide from her."
Hearing Cui Wenqing say this, Zhi Zhao immediately made up his mind, nodded solemnly and said: "Okay, for the sake of the people of Daqi, I will be willing to risk the disapproval of the world." Please also ask the husband to be cautious and not to be seen by others. ”
Cui Wenqing smiled comfortably: "Don't worry, I can save it." ”
At this time, a military general hurriedly came to report: "Governor, Xiao Mo wants to see you." ”
Zhe Zhaoliu raised his eyebrows slightly, and sneered: "This person is only afraid that he doesn't know that he is about to die, husband, you go to rest first, let me go and listen to Xiao Mo's last words." ”
Cui Wenqing nodded, and after Zhezhao left the tent, he kicked off his shoes and climbed onto the couch, and fell on the couch to prepare to fall asleep.
However, when I was half awake and half asleep, my mind was full of the shadows of lotus leaves, and I was very uncomfortable in a daze, and I didn't know how long it took to fall asleep.
On the other end, Zhi Zhao walked lightly towards the tent where Xiao Mo was being held, and he was in a good mood along the way.
In this battle, he not only captured the traitorous envoy of Zhe Weiben and the demon Yi Zuo of the Ming Sect, but also captured Xiao Mo, the privy envoy of the Southern Court of Liao.
Zhen Weiben and Yi Zuo didn't mention it first, Xiao Mo alone was a very big victory for Zhi Zhao.
Who is Xiao Mo? That is another god of war in Da Liao after Yelu Huge, and there are few defeats in battles with the Great Qi army, even if she shows herself, she has fought against Xiao Mo several times, and no one can help anyone.
Especially when Cui Wenqing fell into the water and was critically ill and was about to die, when she returned anxiously, she was surrounded by Xiao Mo, and finally managed to fight a bloody way, but she was still seriously injured.
Now that Xiao Mo can be captured alive, whether it is for the Zhenwu Army or the imperial court, it is a great victory.
After a while, Zhi Zhao came to the outside of the tent, and Huang Yao, the commander of the Chinese army, knew the importance of this person and personally guarded it.
"The last general has seen the Grand Governor."
"No need to be polite."
Zhe Zhao waved his hand and asked with a chuckle, "How is Xiao Mo in the tent?" ”
Huang Yao also smiled and said, "This person doesn't eat, drink or sleep, he just wants to see the Metropolitan Governor in person." ”
Folding his head, without the slightest hesitation, he opened the curtain and walked in.
The tent is not large, and due to the temporary construction, the layout is extremely simple and rough.
Xiao Mo, who was dressed in black, was sitting cross-legged behind the only desk in the tent, motionless and stunned, and only when the footsteps of Zhe Zhao entered the house did he raise his head and smile lightly: "Zhe Zhao, are you here?" ”
"Yes, I'm here." Zhi Zhao strode over, sat down on his desk in an extremely chic manner, glanced at the food that had already been cold on the case, and said with a teasing smile, "Why, I can't eat after being captured?" ”
Xiao Mo sighed and said sullenly: "Speaking of which, this defeat is in your hands, right...... It should be in Cui Wenqing's hands, but it is really my Xiao Mo who carelessly underestimated the enemy. ”
Zhi Zhao lifted the copper kettle on the desk with one hand, tilted the thick ox bone tea at the mouth of the pot and shot out like a dragon, filling the two pottery cups in front of her, and after putting one cup in front of Xiao Mo, she picked up another cup in a good time, and said: "The husband hides the soldiers invisibly, let alone you, even if I don't know the authentic soldiers in advance, maybe I will fall into the trap." ”
Xiao Mo was stunned for a moment and muttered, "He said that it was called an underground battle, and I don't know how he came up with it." ”
Zhi Zhao said with a smile: "Yes, almost all the battles that are dug in the tunnels are used in siege warfare, how could I have thought that they could also be used to ambush soldiers, and in order to hide these more than 1,000 soldiers, our department has dug for a full five days, but fortunately, they are all hidden." ”
