Chapter 37: Double Reeds

It turned out that Li Guangbi adopted Chen Wenzhou's suggestion and set up an ambush in Lijiagou between Majiayao and Lijiayao.

There are high mountains on both sides, and the brigade cannot cross it, only the middle road can be passed, and it is a necessary place for the Zuoyun rebels.

In order to ensure the annihilation of Xue Zhongyi's army in one fell swoop, Chen Wenzhou asked people to dig up boulders on the mountain to block the way, and then Li Guangbi personally led a thousand soldiers and horses to set up an ambush on the way of the rebels, and when the rebels passed, intercept their way back.

Li Siye led 1,000 men and horses to ambush on the northern slope of the road, and Chen Wenzhou and Li Fei Yuanli led 1,000 men and horses to ambush on the southern slope.

As soon as Xue Zhongyi's army arrived, they were blocked by boulders, and the ambushes on both sides of the hillside fired arrows at the same time, and then Li Guangbi killed from behind, forming a situation of encirclement on all sides.

At the same time, the South Road Ambush Army, under the leadership of Fugu Huaien and Guo Chen, defeated the Niuting Rank in the south of Youyu and killed more than 3,000 enemies!

Unfortunately, the rebel Niu Tingjie fled back to Mayi.

Majiayao, the temporary cantonment of the ambush army on the east road.

"Wen Zhou, you kid is really like a god!" Li Guangbi said with admiration.

Chen Wenzhou maintained his usual seriousness and modesty, "I have won the award for you, I dare not do it like a god, my name is Chen Kongming." ”

Li Guangbi and Li Siye didn't hear anything.

"We captured Xue Zhongyi alive, last night I used both soft and hard, this person also has some backbone, and he refuses to surrender anything. Will, what do you think of this person? Li Siye asked.

Li Guangbi frowned, "There is such a thing? Does he still think that the Anshi rebels can really subvert the Sheji artifact? Or is this man really faithful? ”

Chen Wenzhou said with a smile: "If he had served An Lushan with all his heart, he would not have dismounted and surrendered last night." ”

Hearing Chen Wenzhou say this, Li Guangbi and Li Siye both nodded.

Since the Anshi Rebellion, many counties in Hebei have surrendered to An Lushan, but those who are loyal to the Tang Dynasty have refused to give up resistance until they die.

Those who really refuse to surrender will not care about life and death.

"Wen Zhou, what do you think should be done?" Li Guangbi asked.

Chen Wenzhou thought for a while, "I'll meet him first," and then said to Li Siye and Li Guangbi, "Big brother, all of you, let's play a double reed." ”

"What's the acting?"

Chen Wenzhou leaned into the ears of Li Siye and Li Guangbi: This is so, this is so.

Li Siye and Li Guangbi nodded.

In the military tent where Xue Zhongyi was imprisoned.

"The surname is Xue, you can't descend!" Chen Wenzhou shouted.

Xue Zhongyi looked at the sky with both eyes, and ignored Chen Wenzhou.

I thought to myself, what kind of bird are you, hairy boy?

"Good!" Chen Wenzhou laughed angrily, "Come on! ”

The two guards clenched their fists, "Here!" ”

"Go, cut off fifty heads of the rebels who were captured alive last night!" Chen Wenzhou said expressionlessly.

"Yes!"

Xue Zhongyi heard a burst of footsteps outside, and then a miserable scream sounded.

Two guards came in with a dozen soldiers, each carrying four or five human heads, dripping with blood.

Little did he know that it had been cut from the corpses of the rebels he had annihilated last night.

The cloak was to cover the face of the dead man, so that he Xue Zhongyi would not see the flaws.

Xue Zhongyi's face turned white all of a sudden, and he looked at the slightly weak hairy boy in front of him: This is a ruthless character, and he cut fifty people in one sentence!

"Still not down?" Chen Wenzhou asked.

Xue Zhongyi didn't speak, but he wasn't as arrogant as before.

Cang Lang Lang!

Chen Wenzhou pulled out his sword!

"Since you don't want to surrender, then keeping you is just a waste of our army's grain and grass, and Lao Tzu will send you on your way!"

As soon as Chen Wenzhou's two sword eyebrows were raised, he was about to use a knife to cut people!

Xue Zhongyi's heart trembled: It seems that this bastard really wants to attack Lao Tzu!

"Wen Zhou, what are you going to do!"

Xue Zhongyi heard that someone was coming, and it was Li Siye who persuaded him to surrender last night.

Xue Zhongyi saw that Li Siye was coming, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and his face regained his composure.

Li Siye hugged Chen Wenzhou and didn't let him do it.

"Humph! The general of the defeated army still dares to speak out, General Li Hugh wants to pull me, see if I end up with his dog's life! Chen Wenzhou struggled to cut Xue Zhongyi.

Li Siye didn't hold it for a while, and Chen Wenzhou slashed at Xue Zhongyi with a knife!

Xue Zhongyi hurriedly dodged a knife.

Chen Wenzhou and Li Siye almost laughed, just this thing that is greedy for life and afraid of death, dare to say that they are loyal and upright?

Li Siye hurriedly snatched Chen Wenzhou's knife, "What are you doing!" ”

"I'm going to slaughter this traitor!"

"Nonsense!" At this moment, Li Guangbi came in.

"Will, what will he keep for such a thief?" Chen Wenzhou said angrily with a disbelievable face.

Li Guangbi shouted: "What do you know! ”

Then he said to Xue Zhongyi: "General Xue would rather die than give in, he is a loyal person, I can't bear to kill such a strong man." ”

When Xue Zhongyi heard this, he returned to his previous arrogant appearance, a disdainful sneer hung on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at death as if he were at home.

If it weren't for him flashing that knife, Chen Wenzhou would definitely believe that this Xue Zhongyi was not a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death.

"General Xue, I have a few words I want to say to you," Li Guangbi said.

Xue Zhongyi snorted coldly: "Don't say anything about persuasion, it's just a waste of words." ”

Li Guangbi shook his head, "I know that persuading the general to surrender is useless, but I just want to say a few words from the heart of the general." ”

After a pause, Li Guangbi said: "I have always heard that An Lushan has a violent personality, and it is said that he beats and scolds his close ministers at every turn. The general has suffered a defeat, if you return to An Lushan, what will he do with you? ”

Xue Zhongyi's face was cloudy, and he knew An Lushan's temper best.

Yan Zhuang is An Lushan's number one henchman, and he is often whipped by An Lushan, and the eunuch Li Zhu'er has been castrated by An Lushan since he was twelve years old to serve An Lushan, and he was almost beaten to death several times.

He is a small military envoy, and he is not a descendant, and he must not be skinned and cramped when he returns after losing the battle?

Li Guangbi continued: "I admire the general as a tough guy. Think about your own family, how brave and good the white-robed general Xue Rengui was, and made a lot of contributions to my Tang Dynasty, forgive me for talking too much, the general can't make a mistake about himself. ”

"Tell him more, if I go down with this knife, he can go to meet the white-robed general Xue Rengui!" Chen Wenzhou wanted to cut people again, but thanks to Li Siye's quick eyes, he stopped him.

Xue Zhongyi was already shaken, he felt that Li Siye and Li Guangbi were not terrible, but that thin guy was a ruthless man, and he would drag a knife to kill people at every turn.

Li Guangbi said again: "I have already played to the imperial court, saying that the general was deceived by traitors and lost his footing for a while. As long as the general puts things right, follows us to make meritorious contributions, and redeems the merits, it is not difficult to pay homage to the prime minister! Moreover, I plan to nominate the general to the imperial court as the envoy of the Hedong Festival, and I estimate that I will reply in a few days. ”

Xue Zhongyi has been completely shaken under coercion and temptation, and what white-robed general cares about him.

It's just that if he doesn't surrender, that Chen Wenzhou probably won't let himself go, and if he surrenders, he will become the envoy of Hedong Jiedu.

It's just that he can't wipe his face and lacks a step.
