Chapter 253: (Kept in the Dark)

"Bastard..."Fan Wenhui threw the bamboo slips to the ground, Gong Cao immediately picked them up and put them away, Fan Wenhui scolded: "He Zhang Bu has thousands of troops since the Xinmang period, and there are tens of thousands of horses when he was named a marquis, plus the army in his county, there are no less than 100,000 people, and now he is sitting firmly in Langya, which is really hateful." ”

Gong Cao then said: "Although the helplessness was expressed in his words, it is not difficult to guarantee that Zhang Bu has surrendered to the king of Changyang, such people, you can know in the new reckless period, and there is no fuss about it now." ”

"Hmph, at that time, I took refuge in Liu Yong, and finally betrayed others, now I think about it, this kind of shameless person, I really can't be with it, and immediately send a fast horse to Jinan to report the news..." ”

"No..."

Outside Qingzhou City, the sound of people and horses, Cheng Wenzhe rode a horse and stood in front of the army, behind him was the general of Yishui, after receiving Cheng Wenzhe's instructions, one of the generals rode to a place more than ten zhang away from Qingzhou City, and shouted to the city tower: "Where is General Fan Wenhui Fan, the county guard of Qingzhou County?" ”

Fan Wenhui because he learned the news that Cheng Wenzhe's army was going to attack the city, he had already come to the side of the city tower, and when he heard the shouting from the city tower, he immediately went to the city and saw people in the distance, so he replied: "This general is Fan Wenhui, the guard of Qingzhou County." ”

The general then said: "General Fan, the king of my family wants to talk to General Fan in person, and I also ask General Fan not to release an arrow and injure the king of my family." ”

Fan Wenhui didn't want to fight, he was also angry with Zhang Bu before, and he hurt his face, hearing this, it was estimated that there was still room for maneuver, so he said: "That's natural, if the king of Changyang is willing to withdraw his troops and return to the county, the general will naturally explain to the emperor." ”

After a while, Cheng Wenzhe went to the city accompanied by several generals, and the distance was outside the range of bows and arrows in the city, which was also for safety, but the disadvantage was that he could only speak at the top of his voice: "Fan Wenhui, do you know that you are rebelling against the lone army?" ”

"Hahaha, the king is joking, the emperor's edict is in front, Fan Changyang King Cheng Wenzhe did not get the edict, and he led troops out of the fiefdom without permission, which is regarded as a rebellion, and now the king has both, even if the general accidentally kills the king here, the emperor will not blame."

"Fan Wenhui, do you know that when the city is broken, it is the time when you wait for the thief to die, aren't you afraid of the nine clans?" Cheng Wenzhe continued.

Fan Wenhui was a little confused, how did he become a rebel, I think it is estimated that it is because he resisted Cheng Wenzhe's army, so he is regarded as a thief: "Cheng Wenzhe, don't say more, there are only two ways in front of you, one is that you bring the troops back by yourself, and you are not to blame for the past, and the other is that you attack the city, and you will defend the city, if Jinan reinforcements arrive, then you will have no way to retreat from the king of Changyang." ”

"King, this Fan Wenhui is not in oil and salt, and he is Fan Wencheng's eldest brother, I think the two of them are in a group, and they are still the people of King Dongping, rather than wasting their tongues with it, it is better to do it as soon as possible, so as to avoid endless troubles." The lieutenant general next to him bowed his head and said to Cheng Wenzhe.

Cheng Wenzhe frowned and looked at Fan Wenhui on the city tower, according to his understanding, Fan Wenhui is not so backbone, there must be some reason, he thought he was still saying a few words, so he said: "Fan Wenhui, do you know that your brother Fan Wencheng cooperated with Dongping Wang Chengqing to rebel, and when he was alone in Laiyang, he was killed by his father's edict, and he thought that you were a famous general, not a gang of Chengqing, so I advise you not to act arbitrarily, open the city and surrender, and be alone in the past, if you can enter the king of Beijing with Gu, you will definitely be promoted as the Marquis of Qingzhou in front of your father, hereditary replacement." ”

"This..."Fan Wenhui couldn't even believe that he understood Cheng Wenzhe's words, so he asked: "Nonsense, King Dongping is in Cangzhou, Hebei, how can he rebel, this is not an excuse for King Changyang." ”

"This guy seems to be kept in the dark..."Cheng Wenzhe said to the generals behind him with a smile after hearing this, then turned his head to look at Fan Wenhui and said: "Fan Wenhui, a few days ago, the envoy from Jinan passed through Qingzhou County, do you know?" ”

Fan Wenhui immediately sent someone to inquire, and after a while, his subordinate Gong Cao personally climbed the city tower and said in Fan Wenhui's ear: "My lord, a few days ago, an envoy from Jinan did pass through the county and changed horses in our county. ”

"Is it true?" Fan Wenhui said silently in his heart.

"My lord, the envoy of Jinan is indeed going to Changyang on the order of the emperor." Gong Cao then added.

"Fan Wenhui, Lone has his father's edict, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to watch it, Lone can save you from death." Cheng Wenzhe said loudly.

Then the city gate slowly opened, a person rode from a general to take the edict, turned around and went back to proclaim, when Fan Wenhui opened the edict and read it carefully, he was shocked, and then carefully checked the seal, which determined that Changyang King Cheng Wenzhe was really on the edict of Cheng Gongwu to go to King Qin of Jinan.

"King Changyang, this official has to be carefully interrogated because of his duties, if there is anything that offends the king, please don't blame the king..."

Cheng Wenzhe smiled, he didn't care about these at all, as long as he could successfully win Qingzhou County, in addition to the increase in troops, he could also get support from Qingzhou County, if he made a promise, the reward he got was not ordinarily small.

"The last general, Fan Wenhui, and the king of the martial arts..."Fan Wenhui said and saluted Cheng Wenzhe, who had just entered the city.

This is an opportunity for him to perform, he didn't want to be hostile to Cheng Wenzhe, if Zhang Bu was willing to send troops to support before, he might not believe this, but now there are no reinforcements, and it is a bit far-fetched to resist Cheng Wenzhe only by relying on the height of the Qingzhou city wall.

"Master Fan, this is your business, it's just that your younger brother Fan Wencheng took refuge in Cheng Qingzhi and coordinated the rebellion, and Lone got an order from his father to kill him in Laiyang, so Lone will not hold you accountable for this matter."

Cheng Wenzhe is not scaring Fan Wenhui, and Fan Wenhui knows these consequences in his heart, Fan Wencheng is his younger brother, if he rebels, it will be a big crime of the nine clans, and he will have to shed his skin if he doesn't have an accident, not to mention that now Cheng Wenzhe does not hold him jointly and severally responsible, so he is also secretly glad in his heart: "Even if it is the younger brother of the last general, rebellion is a heinous crime, thank you for your kindness." ”

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, you immediately gather all the troops in Qingzhou County, including the preparation army, pack up the grain and grass, we will leave for Jinan tomorrow, my father can't wait, I don't know if Cheng Xizhao insists on living."

"No..."

Cheng Wenzhe looked proud, he didn't even know that he had fallen into Shangguan Yin Feng's carefully designed plan, just waiting for him to take the bait.
