It's winter, and the wind is fierce...

The flags on the walls of the city were blown by the wind and made a dull sound. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, the defenders on the city wall were already drawing their bows and arrows, the arrows were glowing with cold light, and although the expression on their faces was nervous, their eyes were very firm, and they only waited for an order to make the soldiers and horses below look good. The other sergeants on the city wall were also hurrying to set up the cauldron at the edge of the wall, and the sergeants next to it stuffed the wood into the bottom of the pot, and then lit a fire, boiling the hot oil in the pot.

If you are not careful, hot oil will spill out of the pan. The scalded sergeant's face was distorted, but fortunately it was not particularly hot at this time, and the sergeant snorted and ran to the pot again.

However, with the sound of Jiaohe, these people stood still like stone statues.

The disbelief and disdainful gazes of the surrounding civil and military forces made Jiao He feel embarrassed, but as long as he thought that the soldiers and horses under the city wall would come up at any time and take off his head and hang it on the flagpole, Jiao He inevitably felt afraid. No one knows better than him that he no longer has any backing behind him.

In the past, no matter how incompetent he was, or how many people looked at him unpleasantly, the position of the assassin would not be shaken, because there was a Han family behind him. As long as the other party still claims to be Hanchen, it is impossible to do anything to him. Even if the entire Qingzhou has been troubled by the remnants of Taiping Dao, he can sit in the city, sit back and relax, sit and talk with the celebrities in the city, and ignore the world...

But now that Dong Zhuo is in power, even the Son of Heaven has been abolished, and he has some connections with Dong Zhuo, even if Yan Shao gets rid of him, I'm afraid that no one will say anything more...

He really wanted to be a loyal servant, but he didn't want to die...

"Lord, although Yan Shao is strong, we are not without the strength to fight!" Falling in front of Jiao He, the staff said loudly, trying to persuade him to change his mind.

The military general next to him also knelt down on one knee. "Lord, we are willing to fight to the death with Yan Shao, and the lord must not do this..."

"Lord!"

Many civil and military officers on the city wall have persuaded one after another, and the nearest few are even more fierce.

They admit that there is indeed a gap between their soldiers and horses compared with Yan Shao, but let them admit defeat like this, which they will never will.

Facing the staff who came to persuade and the city Chinese Wu, Jiao He covered his face and said helplessly. "Don't persuade anymore, tell Yan Shao, as long as he is willing to leave, I will promise him anything..."

"Lord!" The staff shouted again, full of sorrow.

He never thought that the person he was trying his best to assist would be so incompetent, and the other party could scare him like this just by putting on a position, and he didn't even understand what everything he had planned before.

The hearts of the others were also full of resentment, and there was no entanglement between Qi and Beihai, and it could be said that there was nothing to do. It wasn't until Jiao He took office that many things happened. The fact that he had a very stiff quarrel with Donglai County before, which made Tai Shici have to flee to Liaodong was because of Jiao He, and later it was for his own selfishness, and the two places competed against each other. Now that the other party is trying to show up in poverty, these Shang Si who are subordinates are fighting to the death, but he, the mastermind, has admitted it, how can this not make people indignant.

But after a long time, the military general who led it still sighed. "The last general commands..."

When the soldiers on the city wall heard the order, they were like mourning, especially when they heard the bursts of cheers and ridicule from below, and they were even more eager to fight with each other with their weapons. Angry, he also felt that it would become like this, purely because of Jiao He, but he didn't want Yan Shao to have expected things to be like this...

"I didn't expect Jiao He to really admit defeat like this, it's really unexpected..."The corners of his mouth under the helmet curled slightly, and Yan Shao remembered Lu Yan'er's analysis of him.

Jiao He was self-righteous, but he didn't think that someone would see him clearly too early. As early as the second day when Yan Shao included Lu Yan'er in the room, Lu Yan'er had already analyzed Jiao He's temperament clearly in front of him, and finally bluntly said that this person was timid and afraid, as long as he led the troops into the Qi country, the probability that the other party would bow his head and accept defeat was as high as seventy percent...

This kind of thing is profitable, as long as there is a 30% certainty, it is enough, let alone 70%...

In other words, everything was expected...

―――――――――― Dividing Line――――――――――

The soldiers and horses under the city slowly retreated, and Jiao He finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the eyes around him made him extremely embarrassed, so he had to withdraw from the city wall early and return to his mansion...

Returning to the familiar space, Jiao He finally regained his calm, but when he remembered what happened not long ago, he was still a little frightened in his heart.

"What about Zhu Xuan? What about Zhu Xuan? Jiao He asked loudly, this Zhu Xuan is the staff who has always been by his side.

In the past, he was close to Wu Zhu and stayed away from the Magi, as long as there were staff members with a little ability, they basically left him, and the rest were all flatterers, only this person did not abandon and was always by his side. This is also the reason why after he suddenly realized that after Wu Zhu was driven away, he would reuse this person.

It's just that he was in a hurry before, and he didn't pay attention to his side for a while, and then he found that the person was gone, and he suddenly felt a little strange...

Despite the extreme focus and disdain in his heart, the person next to him still said. "Lord, Zhu Xuan seems to have gone home by himself..."

As usual, these Jiao and the staff around them were afraid that they had already celebrated. Without Zhu Xuan in front, they can naturally substitute for the top position and gain Jiao He's favor. It's just that after seeing Jiao He's performance on the city wall, these people are looking at each other, and the same thoughts as Zhu Xuan rose in their hearts―――――― such a master, what is there to follow and be loyal to?"

They also saw Yan Shao's appearance clearly on the city wall before, and he could indeed be called a young hero, compared with him, Jiao He was inevitably dwarfed.

"Humph!" Don't look at Jiao He so cowardly outside, when he returned to the house, his temper changed back instantly. Hearing that Zhu Xuan didn't come back with him, he even ran home instead, and slapped the table in annoyance. "What does this guy know, the war is together, what should the people of this city do, this is for the sake of the people in the city, I have to retreat..."

The surrounding staff and civil and military are submissive, but I don't know what they think in their hearts...

When Jiao He finished getting angry, these people finally received amnesty, but after they came out of the mansion, they glanced at each other, but they looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

One of them sighed even more as he looked at the night that was getting darker. "Qingzhou seems to be about to change..."

This is still the case with their closest staff, let alone the civil and military officials below?

Since Jiao He is unreliable, he is not to blame his military generals for choosing a new master. It is said that their acceptance of Yan Shao is actually much higher than that of Jiao He, but Yan Shao is a serious Qingzhou person, so it is no wonder that the officials of the Assassin Mansion will say that the sky has changed...
