08 Hostages

"I'm sorry, General Wu, each for his own master, wronged you don't have other small actions, otherwise don't blame me for not recognizing the swords in my hands."

Hou Yu, who covered his face with a black cloth, first led someone to tie up Wu Sangui and Hong Chengchou, and then had time to start talking to Wu Sangui.

Constrained by the capture of the two lords in the camp, Wu Sangui and Hong Chengchou, Xia Guoxiang and the others outside the camp had no other way than to make powerless threats, and even had to meet the various demands put forward by Hou Yu and them in the camp.

Xia Guoxiang and they didn't think about a strong attack, but they tried to avoid the blades of the soldiers in Hou Yu twice before, and they put Wu Sangui at the front to avoid the blades of the soldiers, so that everyone was not only a mouse, but they were cut to death by this group of strongmen, and they inadvertently showed that they didn't care about the life and death of the two hostages themselves and Wu Sangui, and finally forced Xia Guoxiang and others to give up the method of attacking.

"Which side did you send here, I, Wu, asked myself if I didn't have such a big face, and I would let people concentrate on assassination!"

After Wu Sangui experienced the initial panic, he quickly calmed down, and people who had worked the battlefield of life and death for too long were relatively indifferent to life and death.

Wu Sangui was concerned about what the other party belonged to at this time, and he asked himself what he had done in the officialdom over the years, although he had some enemies and opponents, but he had not yet reached the point where he would be assassinated!

"General Wu doesn't need to guess, who are we you are afraid you will never think of, why waste all this brainpower? It's better for the general to think about how to impress us to let you go, this is the right reason, isn't it? ”

Hou Yu did not leave Wu Sangui's left and right for a moment, and the sixteen soldiers of the special operations battalion who came in together and lurked outside the camp, with Wu Sangui's military tent as a wing, were in a stalemate with Wu Jun's henchmen outside the tent.

The tent, which was originally intact, had been torn apart by the Wu soldiers outside the tent at this time, and under the leakage of light everywhere, not only allowed the soldiers outside the tent to vaguely see the situation in the tent, but also allowed Hou Yu to see their faces outside the tent.

The masked man was reluctant to reveal his tone, but this was Wu Sangui's most helpless thing, such as today's chaos, countless group leaders jumped out, and even Wu Sangui himself couldn't guess who sent the other party.

But at least Wu Sangui can be sure of one thing, that is, this group of people originally wanted to assassinate themselves directly, but the sudden extra Hong Chengchou made the other party hesitate and gave him the only chance to resist and save himself, which made the situation what it is today.

"Listen to the people outside, if you still think about your general's head on his neck, quickly make way for us, and prepare thirty good horses, two carriages, and a few days' dry rations!!"

There are two trump cards in their hands, so that Hou Yu and they have nothing to fear, as long as they pay attention to precautions when they take action, and use these two trump cards as shields, the other party really has nothing to do.

“……”

The Wu army outside the tent was silent, it was obvious that the person in charge had gone out to discuss, and after a while, Xia Guoxiang, who was outside the tent, appeared at the door of the tent with his hands raised and appeared at the door of the tent in civilian clothes as a representative, and began to bargain with Hou Yu and them as friendly as possible: "As long as you are willing to let go of my general, no matter what the hero wants, we can promise you: money, beauty or high-ranking officials are no problem!" ”

"Hehehe, if it's just for these things, does General Xia think our brother will appear here? Don't delay, if we can't get out of this tent gate before dawn, we'll have to die!" ”

Hou Yu didn't know that Xia Guoxiang came to discuss, but he was just paralyzing himself, and then he seized the time to investigate their composition, and dispatched troops to prepare for an ambush.

"It's easy to say, the request you made before, the official has already sent someone to prepare, presumably someone will send it after half a ring."

"It's just that how can the hero guarantee that after you escape, you will be able to spare the life of my general?"

This is actually the problem that Xia Guoxiang and his subordinates are most worried about, but there is no way to solve it until now.

The other party came in in the middle of the night and caught their own general, if they said that they had no bad intentions, even ordinary people did not believe it, but now that the meat is on the chopping board Xia Guoxiang, they have no spare strength but have no stage to show, for the sake of the general's comfort, they have to give in.

"Otherwise, heroes, how about you release my general first and exchange me as a hostage?"

"I'm sorry, the brothers don't believe you General Xia, it's really that the brothers are desperate for their lives and don't dare to take this risk, why don't you exchange the general for the boss next to us?"

Hou Yu will definitely not let go of Wu Sangui, and Wu Sangui, who originally knew that he was afraid that he would be in a catastrophe, was blindfolded again, and he couldn't give a hint, forcing Xia Guoxiang led by Wu Jun to be in a dilemma and depressed.

As for Hou Yu's proposal to exchange him for Lord Hong Chengchou, Xia Guoxiang didn't even think about it, although Hong Chengchou's status is much higher than Wu Sangui, but Xia Guoxiang has always cared more about Wu Sangui, if it weren't for Wu Sangui who cared about Hong Chengchou, it is impossible to say that Hong Chengchou would have become a wreckage in the fall of the Beijing division at this time.

Among the hundreds of henchmen of the Wu army, who could dominate the power after Wu Sangui was captured, except for Xia Guoxiang, several other confidant generals were almost hot.

"Since General Xia is not interested in our proposal, then please don't delay the time, hurry up and prepare what our brother needs!"

Hou Yu intentionally or unintentionally slashed the dagger across Wu Sangui's neck, invisibly increasing the pressure on Xia Guoxiang and them.

In this way, they were at a stalemate with each other, and in the end they could only give in to Wu Sangui's loyal subordinates, who sent the horses and carriages they needed to Hou Yu to the camp, and finally watched Hou Yu transport Wu Sangui and Hong Chengchou into the carriage, and several people got into the carriage one by one, while the remaining few soldiers of the special operations battalion rode horses and swaggered in front.

"You have injured the life of my general, otherwise I, the Wu family, will swear to hunt down and kill you and others, and I will not die!!"

Until the end, Xia Guoxiang, who did not find a chance to rescue Wu Sangui, could only watch Wu Sangui and them be taken out of the camp, and then disappeared into the vast night.

Not long after, the sound of horses' hooves in the Wu army's camp was loud, and Wu Sangui's henchmen and generals personally guarded the whole army, quickly chasing in the direction of Hou Yu and them, and also disappeared into the night.

And the team that was incorporated along the way, led by another general, followed the climate on foot, and it seemed that they were going to chase Hou Yu and them to the ground.
