Chapter Ninety-Five: Privately Release Li Peifu

The next day, Deng Yuanjue's troops launched a fierce attack on Cangwu City in four ways, and Li Peifu also sent Lin Peiyuan, Feng Fenglong and Wan Hailong to guard a city gate each, and he personally resisted Deng Yuanjue at the east gate.

The battle was fierce, and Li Peifu did not let Deng Yuanjue take advantage of the high walls of the city by virtue of the thick walls. The two armies fought fiercely until the afternoon, and Deng Wenying, who was in charge of attacking the north gate, suddenly drew out an arrow and shot it into the air.

Li Peifu secretly shouted that it was not good, it turned out that Deng Yuanjue had already sent spies into the city, Li Peifu hurriedly ordered the officers and soldiers guarding the city not to panic, the fire in the city was only done by a small group of spies, and it could not affect the overall situation.

Li Peifu's judgment was indeed not wrong, but Cangwu City at this time was no longer under his control. The herald who had just been sent out was infiltrated into the city in advance before he went down the city tower, and was killed by the master of the Heavenly Sword Gate who was hiding nearby, and Li Peifu's order could not reach the other three city gates at all.

"Report, the West Gate is lost, Xiao Che, the third prince of the Song Kingdom, came in with people to kill him, and General Wan is organizing people to fight in the streets."

"Report, the north gate was lost, Xiao Yin, the prince of the Song Kingdom, came in with someone to kill, and General Feng was killed by Deng Wenying."

After receiving the news of the loss of two city gates in a row, Li Peifu knew that the general trend had gone and Cangwu City could not hold it, so he ordered: "Let Wan Hailong and Lin Peiyuan quickly withdraw to the east gate." ”

After a stick of incense, the two rushed to the east gate. Li Peifu walked down the city tower, and the three of them joined forces, opened the east gate, and broke through in the direction of Yulin.

Deng Yuanjue asked Deng Wenying and Xiao Che to lead people to pursue, while he and Xiao Yin went into the city to pacify the people. Li Peifu and the three of them finally made a cut from Deng Yuanjue's army, and looked back at the Qin soldiers behind them, and there were less than 10,000 people left in the 50,000 army, which was very similar to Tian Yulong a month ago.

Li Peifu smiled bitterly and didn't dare to stay, fortunately, Cangwu City was only two days away from Yulin, even if he didn't rest along the way, he could resist it.

Just when Li Peifu thought he had gotten rid of the Song army, there was another shout of killing on both sides, and 20,000 Song soldiers surrounded him, Lin Peiyuan and Wan Hailong each led troops to block both sides, letting Li Peifu go first.

"Hahaha, none of you can leave today, all of you have to die." Tian Yulong rode a war horse and walked out slowly from the front.

Tian Yulong pointed at Li Peifu with a horsewhip in his hand and continued: "Li Peifu, you have made me miserable, let me lose my troops and generals, and lose Cangwu City, if I don't take you today, how can I go back and explain to Your Majesty." ”

Li Peifu was not to be outdone: "Who should I be, it turned out to be your defeated subordinate, Tian Yulong, you are really good at picking up cheap, if you have the ability to let us fight, see if you can win me once?" ”

Tian Yulong smiled: "Joke, you are still a famous general of the Qin State, do I still need to fight with you alone?" If you know each other, you can get off the horse and be captured now, and I can make you suffer less. ”

Li Peifu was furious, and coldly picked up the bow and arrow and shot it at Tian Yulong's chest, but fortunately, the soldiers around Tian Yulong were quick and held a shield to block the front.

Li Peifu's sneak attack almost succeeded, and Tian Yulong was angry and ordered the whole army to attack.

The Qin army had just gone through a day of fighting and had been on the road all night, and now how could they still have the strength to fight again, and in less than half an hour, there were less than 3,000 of these 10,000 people left.

Seeing that the whole army was about to be wiped out, Li Peifu suddenly moved in his heart and shouted: "Stop, Tian Yulong, I have something to say." ”

Tian Yulong ordered the attack to be suspended, and he was also very curious, what else did Li Peifu want to say at this time.

Li Peifu asked: "Mrs. Tian, I can be regarded as admitting it today, but I want to ask you, if I, General Lin, and General Wan break through from three directions at the same time, are you sure that you can catch us all?" ”

Although Tian Yulong didn't understand what Li Peifu meant by asking, he still replied honestly: "No, but so what, I just need to catch you alone." ”

Li Peifu smiled: "What's the use if you can only catch me alone?" Can you help you atone for your guilt and stop Emperor Song from holding you accountable for losing Cangwu City? Haha, this idea is really good, but Taiwei Tian, have you ever thought about another thing, Shi Luosheng was betrayed by you before he died, and you told me his whereabouts, aren't you afraid that Emperor Song will know about it? ”

Tian Yulong was shocked: "You fart, Shi Luosheng was killed by himself because he disobeyed the military order and acted without permission and was discovered by you, what does this have to do with me." ”

Li Peifu sneered: "You sent someone to our army, deliberately leaked Shi Luosheng's whereabouts, and then asked the person who came to tell him to commit suicide himself, so that there is no evidence to prove that this matter is related to you, but do you think that person is really dead?" When he committed suicide, he was found and rescued by General Lin in time, and then I rushed back to Yulin City with him, and now that person is in Matthew's Mansion. What do you think will happen if I tell me about your betrayal of Shi Luosheng and hand that person over to Deng Yuanjue? ”

Tian Yulong's face changed drastically: "I don't know what you're talking about, anyway, one of you wants to leave today and give me arrows." Tian Yulong asked Xu Wenzhe to send someone to the Qin army camp that day, and then Xu Wenzhe watched outside the camp until he saw the body of the person sent from the camp carried out of the camp with his own eyes. Now that Tian Yulong heard Li Peifu say that the man was not dead, although he didn't believe it in his heart, he was still a little worried that what Li Peifu said was true.

Li Peifu shouted, "Wait, Captain Tian, I want to make a deal with you." As long as you are willing to let us go, I am willing to give that person back to you. If you really want to fight, try to see if you can kill all of us. ”

After speaking, he turned his head to the soldiers behind him and said: "All the soldiers listen to the order, if any of you can escape back to Yulin City today, bring a word to Ma Taishou for me, let him avenge us, and hand over that incident and that person to Deng Yuanjue of the Song Kingdom." ”

Although Li Peifu didn't say which thing and whom, Tian Yulong knew it, which made him very embarrassed. didn't let Li Peifu go, he was really not sure that he would kill them all without missing a single person. These ordinary soldiers can be said that Li Peifu and the three of them are all experienced in battle, not to mention these ordinary soldiers under their command, even ordinary martial arts masters are not necessarily their opponents.

If one of them really escapes, he will tell the story of his betrayal of Shi Luosheng, and Xiao Daocheng will definitely not let him go, not only will he die, but dozens of people from the Tian family will all be buried together.

But if Li Peifu is let go now, he will miss this opportunity to atone his merits, and he will still be punished by Xiao Daocheng after he goes back, but the crime will not lead to death, at most he will be dismissed, as long as his power is still there, there will be hope of returning to the court one day.

Seeing Tian Yulong's hesitation, Li Peifu added another fire and said, "Taiwei Tian, even if you can really kill us all, won't Ma Taishou hand over that person?" Only by letting me go can you never suffer again. ”

Li Peifu's words finally made Tian Yulong make up his mind, he didn't dare to gamble with the lives of his whole family, especially in a family like the Tian family, it is better to dismiss the official by one person than to behead the whole family. Tian Yulong said: "Okay, I can let you live today, I hope you can keep your word, and hand over that person to me after returning to Yulin." ”

Li Peifu was overjoyed and said: "Don't worry, Tai Lieutenant, you can send someone to Yulin City to find me at any time in the past few days, and I will hand them over to you when the time comes." ”

Tian Yulong sighed and made way for Li Peifu. Li Peifu immediately rushed over with the remaining more than 2,000 people.
