Emperor Xuanhe saw that there was no hope of breaking through, so he simply jumped off his horse, faced the south, sat cross-legged, and waited to be bound. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After a while, the Khitan soldiers rushed up, and a soldier was about to come forward to strip Emperor Xuanhe's armor.

A soldier from Nanchu jumped out from the side and split the Khitan soldier in half with a knife, so frightened that Emperor Xuanhe had already lost his soul. He thought that the other party was going to compete with that person and kidnap him, but he saw that the man had a fierce face, carrying a bloody big knife, and ran away with a rolling belt.

"Your Majesty, don't panic. The villain is a military marquis stationed in Wuyue Huiji, and this time he was conscripted to fight in the north. Now there are Khitan soldiers everywhere, and the villain leads the emperor to break out. The man put down the terrifying machete and bowed to Emperor Xuanhe, and he believed it.

"Great, strong man, as long as I can escape, I will definitely give you an official and a knight, and make you a general. By the way, I don't know your name yet. Emperor Xuanhe was overjoyed and finally found some hope of survival.

"The villain's name is Du Shangwu, and he was originally a person from Jingzhou City, and I was fortunate enough to see the dragon's face when the emperor ascended the throne before, when the whole city was paraded, so I recognized the emperor."

"Okay, good, God help me. Strong, take the widow out of here quickly. ”

Du Shangwu didn't say a word, picked up the big knife in one hand, supported Emperor Xuanhe with the other, and slowly fought his way out of the bloody road surrounded by thousands of Khitan soldiers.

But after all, Du Shangwu was not the god of war Zhao Zilong, and after barely killing dozens of Khitan soldiers, he was already exhausted, and even the blades were rolled up. Seeing that the Khitan soldiers were going forward one after another, the encirclement became smaller and smaller, and finally Emperor Xuanhe and Du Shangwu were surrounded in a circle.

At this time, the Khitan Emperor had arrived on a high-headed war horse, he glanced at the Xuanhe Emperor who was hiding behind Du Shangwu and was trembling, and knew that he was not an ordinary person, and said loudly in a stiff Southern Chu dialect: "The one in the back is the dignified Southern Chu Emperor Xiong Jie?" The Khitan Emperor Yelu Hongye particularly emphasized the word dignified, and his tone was full of contempt. looked at Emperor Xuanhe, who was still there and couldn't stop trembling, which made the Khitan soldiers around laugh.

"Who are you, dare to call our emperor by his name, if you dare to take half a step forward, I will definitely kill you." As a flesh-and-blood soldier, Du Shangwu is still iron-clad in the end.

"Okay, what a man, the emperor will tell you. I am the Khitan Emperor Yelu Hongye, and as you can see, your Southern Chu Emperor is a weak and incompetent faint monarch. I see that your strength alone has directly injured me so many elite soldiers in Khitan, and you are a general. I won't hurt you, I'll promote you to be my sword-bearer, if you want. By the way, Zhuangshi, what's your name? "Yelu Hongye was a man of foresight, and he guessed that Du Shangwu, who had a resolute character, would not give in to him, and would definitely refuse. And he seems to be suspicious, he is not suspicious, and he is allowed to be a guard with a knife, which makes the soldiers below even more impressed by his open-mindedness and magnanimity.

Du Shangwu was also surprised, this Khitan Emperor did have the domineering that an emperor should have, compared to the Xuanhe Emperor he protected, it was a world of difference. But no matter how much the hero cherishes the hero, the hero still has national boundaries.

"I Dushang Wuxing does not change my name or surname, Wu Yue will be a small military marquis, no matter who you are, I am a person from Southern Chu in life, and a ghost in Southern Chu in death, I only recognize our emperor of Southern Chu as the imperial power. If you dare to hurt the emperor today, unless you step over my corpse. "Dushanwu has already raised his machete, ready to make a last-ditch effort.

"Don't kill us, I can promise you to cut the land and pay compensation. Including if you want this strong man to be your guard with a sword, I will grant it, but I ask you to spare my life. ”

Emperor Xuanhe's words were so spineless, which caused the Khitan soldiers, including Yelu Hongye, to laugh, and it was with such a mediocre and weak king that Nanchu declined so quickly. Du Shangwu originally thought that the emperor he protected would at least show the calmness and calmness of the emperor at the last moment, but he didn't think that he would be so compromised, so he could only sigh silently.

At this time, the Khitan soldiers were shrinking the encirclement step by step, Emperor Xuanhe was trembling with fright, and Du Shangwu was also ready to sacrifice his life for righteousness.

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves galloping not far away came, "Report to the Emperor, General Lei has sent an urgent secret protection, and the Emperor needs to start quickly." ”

Yelu Hongye had been waiting for General Lei's reply for a long time, because his side had already wiped out the entire army of Southern Chu, but King Wu Yue did not respond to him according to the two-sided attack agreed in advance, which made him very angry. When he opened the letter of Lei Biao forged by Lu Xiaoyu, he was even more angry.

Lu Xiaoyu's letter clearly stated the arrogance and rudeness of King Wu Yue and his refusal to submit to the Khitan. And according to the accurate information he obtained, they also secretly contacted Western Xia and wanted to attack the Khitan together.

Lu Xiaoyu proposed to negotiate peace with Emperor Xuanhe of Southern Chu, and directly borrowed the hand of Emperor Xuanhe to cut off the power of King Wuyue, and watched them compete with each other, and the Khitan sat on the idea of reaping the benefits of the fisherman, Yelu Hongye recognized it very much. Lu Xiaoyu's sentence, the Western Xia is secretly communicating with the King of Wuyue, and the power of the Western Xia is expanding, so we must first target the Western Xia, so that Yelu Hongye is even more hostile to the Western Xia. However, after reading Lu Xiaoyu's letter with very clear logic, he was still a little suspicious, Lei Biao has never had so many flowers, why is the perspective so clear this time. Fortunately, Lu Xiaoyu guessed that Yelu Hongye might suspect fraud, and specially said that he helped him find a capable person comparable to Jiang Ziya in Nanchu, and it was his strategy that he offered, so he was a little relieved.

After reading the letter, Yelu Hongye looked at the confrontation between Emperor Xuanhe and Du Shangwu, and decided to use this opportunity to buy Du Shangwu's loyalty. "The emperor was moved by this Du Zhuangshi's loyal and patriotic behavior, and I decided to make peace with the Emperor of Southern Chu, Du Zhuangshi, look at this, are you willing to serve me."

As soon as Yelu Hongye said this, the Khitan soldiers were shocked, the emperor actually wanted to make peace with the emperor of Southern Chu for a small military marquis, which was how much weight was given to this person, and the soldiers surrendered to Du Shangwu with strange eyes, some envious, some worshipped, some hateful, and more jealous. I have to say that Yelu Hongye played this trick profoundly, not only found the steps to negotiate peace with the Southern Chu Emperor, but also bribed Du Shangwu, so that more Khitan soldiers killed the enemy more heroically, because they saw that even the enemy generals who were loyal to the Lord could be appreciated, not to mention that they were soldiers who served the Khitan.

Du Shangwu was indeed a little flattered at this time, he turned his head to look at Emperor Xuanhe, also looked at him, and said: "Since the Khitan Emperor values you so much, you can follow him, and I can also talk to him and return to Southern Chu." Looking at Emperor Xuanhe's pitiful eyes.

Du Shangwu gritted his teeth, got up and hugged his fists to the Khitan Emperor and said: "If you can make peace with Nan Chu, I am willing to serve you loyally in the future, and I have no two hearts." In fact, Du Shangwu still wanted to return to Nanchu in his heart, but in his opinion, he thought that he would only be willing to make peace if he followed Yelu Hongye, so he had to temporarily agree to Yelu Hongye's conditions.
