Wang Zhengjian and the officials were anxious to feel that on the west gate tower, they saw the flags flying under the city, the colorful flags fluttering, and the neat phalanxes were placed under the city, and the soldiers did not look chaotic at all, but among these phalanxes, there were people who wanted to restore Zhao Ziliangguan to his post, and some of the banners said that they wanted to restore the previous rules and regulations, and the soldiers stood under the city and shouted neatly: "We want to eat, we want to support our families!" Kill the corrupt and pervert the law, and reinstate General Zhao! ”

It goes without saying that in fact, the Han Navy is aimed at Wang Zhengjian, and it is organized and premeditated, otherwise how could the rebellious soldiers have such a strict military formation? Wang Zhengjian saw these slogans written on the banner, and heard the soldiers shouting under the city, the overwhelming anger and murderous aura spread all over the son, so shocked that his face was colorless, if it wasn't for the fact that he himself was born in the army, he had seen a lot of scenes, he was afraid that he would make a fool of himself on the spot, and then looked at the other officials behind him, it was even more unbearable, and some were so frightened that they sat down directly on the ground, and feces and urine came out.

"It's over, looking at the formation, I'm afraid that all the 16,000 people in the Han Navy are coming! If they kill us, we will die and have no place to bury! A chubby official screamed in fright.

Fear and fear are both diseases, this disease is contagious, timid people are more likely to be infected, the behavior of fat officials makes other officials more afraid and frightened, even some of the more courageous officials began to be afraid, and the city guard soldiers who defended the city also trembled one by one, and they couldn't hold their swords and guns steadily.

Wang Zhen, the commander of the city guards, was Wang Zhengjian's nephew, and when he saw that the officials were so frightened, he immediately sneered: "Look at you group of cowards, you are scared like this before they start attacking the city, if they kill them, won't you be scared to death directly?" Afraid of what? Although the Han Navy has a large number of people and strong combat power, they are a field army, and they are not qualified to fight siege warfare! With our 3,000 city guards, they want to enter the city, and if they don't have ten days and half a month, most of them won't want to break the city if they don't die! ”

Seeing Wang Zhen's sarcasm, an official couldn't help but retort: "You yellow-mouthed boy, you know a fart!" After Zhao Ziliang's reorganization, the Han Navy is no longer the Han Navy of the past, in the past two years, in addition to practicing the method of field army formations, they have also carried out siege drills, which must be carried out once every ten days, they have complete siege equipment, elite soldiers, and the number of tactics, just with your city guards, these wine bags and rice bags can also stop them? When the fight starts, you will see, and then you will be scared! ”

Wang Zhen was not convinced, and immediately played a trick with this official, the two quarreled, and other officials involuntarily joined in, and the city tower suddenly quarreled into a pot of porridge.

Wang Zheng saw that he was upset and messed up, and there was a lot of noise next to him, and he had a headache, so he immediately became angry: "What are you arguing about? If you have the ability, let the army outside the city retreat! ”

The officials were silent for a while, Wang Zheng saw that some of the generals and colonels around him were some wine bags and rice bags that were mixed and mixed and greeted by horses, so that they could be powerful in the army, and if they really wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy, they would not be able to hide, and they could hide as far as they could, but this time, they couldn't hide if they wanted to, but they had no way, so they could only look at Wang Zhengjian, hoping that he would show his might and let the soldiers outside the city retreat.

Wang Zheng frowned, and carefully observed the Han Navy outside the city again, one by one phalanx was neatly arranged, but there was no siege equipment, the generals and colonels of each battalion and regiment met at the front of their own teams, and there was no sign of an official siege for the time being, which made him a little relieved.

Wang Zhengjian turned to the officials and said, "You don't have to be afraid, the Han Navy didn't bring siege equipment, it means that they don't plan to attack the city for the time being, I intend to send people out of the city to confront their generals and colonels, and see if I can persuade them to retreat!" ”

Someone immediately shouted: "Don't be handsome, don't open the city gate, in case these wolf cubs enter, won't the entire Beiting City be finished?" ”

The official next to him also chimed in: "Yes, yes, don't open the city gates!" ”

Wang Zheng saw that the army outside the city was too close to the city wall, and the front was full of cavalry, once the city gate was opened, as long as the cavalry in front was fast enough, they could rush to the city gate hole, as long as they held the city gate hole, the army behind could rush in continuously.

It is indeed inappropriate to open the city gate directly, Wang Zhengjian thought about it, nodded and said: "It is indeed inappropriate to open the city gate, but you can let the envoy sit under the hanging basket, I don't know who is willing to go out of the city to negotiate with the Han Navy?" ”

When all the officials heard Wang Zhengjian say this, they all lowered their heads, and some even shrank their bodies back, which made Wang Zhengjian very angry, and he said angrily: "Aren't they all very capable just now? Why are they all cowardly now? What is the use of the court raising you? ”

Some officials couldn't help but scold in their hearts, if you didn't want to mess with Zhao Ziliang, how could this kind of thing happen, and now that something happens, you will be angry with us?

At this time, an official about forty years old stood up and said: "Commander, the lower official is willing to go out of the city to fight with the Han Navy!" ”

Everyone looked at it, isn't this Du Jianhong, the judge of Jiedu who came to office not long ago? It is said that Du Jianhong is the person of the crown prince Li Heng, the prince has been suppressed by Li Linfu in recent years, and some of his cronies have been sent to various places to watch, Du Jianhong's official position in the capital is Dali Temple Sizhi (equivalent to the chief prosecutor), is the prime minister's deputy, mainly to assist the prime minister in reporting illegal officials, and his status is very high.

After Du Yanhong arrived in Beiting, he has been very low-key, and he does not often interact with officials, and the officials still think that he is not good at interacting with people, but they did not expect that this time he would dare to go out of the city and confront the Han Navy, which made these officials drop their jaws.

Wang Zheng was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly said to Du Jianhong: "Lord Du is high-minded, this official is here to wish Lord Du success, as long as Lord Du can say that he will retire from the Han Navy, this official will definitely recommend it to the imperial court!" ”

Du Weihong's face was as usual, and he bowed his hand and said: "The marshal is polite, I believe that the requirements of the Han Navy are also clear to the marshal, I don't know what the marshal has planned, give the lower officials a bottom, and the lower officials can talk to the generals and colonels of the Han Navy."

Wang Zhengjian pondered for a moment, and said: "The military salary can be issued to them immediately, Zhao Ziliang is still a soldier and horse envoy, and this official has no right to remove him from the post of soldier and horse envoy, the reason why this official let people replace him as a naval envoy is just to reduce his pressure and burden, so that he can serve in the military and horse envoy mansion, they have already committed a big crime by killing Lu Wentong appointed by this commander, if they are obsessed, the court will definitely regard them as rebels, and their families will be implicated at that time, Ben Shuai hopes that Lord Du will explain these situations to the generals and colonels of the Han Navy, if they retreat and return to the camp, Ben Shuai can not blame the past, if they insist on going their own way, even if they break through Tingzhou City? Rebels are always rebels, and the imperial court will definitely send a large army to crusade! ”

Du Weihong pondered for a moment and asked: "According to the meaning of the marshal, can it be understood that the military salary can be paid, but Zhao Ziliang's Han Navy envoy can no longer be reinstated, and their request to restore the rules set by General Zhao has also been rejected?" ”

Wang Zheng saw that he was about to speak, and an official next to him said eagerly: "Marshal, the rules in the army set by Zhao Ziliang are very good, and those people you sent have changed their anger and touched the interests of all the soldiers, who would dare to give you their lives?" Agree to this, let them withdraw first, and then say, the army is besieging the city, and anyone's mood is very irritable, and they will attack the city regardless of the consequences, and the death of the marshal will be small, and the people of the whole city will suffer! ”

Wang Zhengjian was so angry when he heard this that he almost vomited blood, didn't you bastards instigate the old man to deal with Zhao Ziliang in the first place? Now you're the first to coax, I'll wipe it!

Wang Zheng saw Tie Qing glaring at the official who had just spoken, gritting his teeth as if he was going to eat people, but he also knew that now was not the time for infighting, 16,000 people were on the outskirts of the city, and no one could turn a blind eye.

After sighing, Wang Zhengjian said: "This matter can be discussed, but they have to withdraw first!" ”

Du Yanhong hesitated for a moment, and suggested: "Dashuai, the lower officials think that it doesn't matter what conditions they put forward now, as long as they can withdraw the army, we can agree to these conditions, and when they withdraw the army, we will deal with it slowly, you must know that it is a mutiny now, and if you don't make it, the entire Beiting will be in chaos, and at that time, the first thing the court will pursue is not the problem of the rebels, but the problem of your poor defense!" ”

Wang Zheng saw Du Jianhong's reminder and came to his senses, he was a feudal official, and he was responsible for anything that happened to the North Court, not to mention that it was a rebellion, and the board of the court would definitely hit him first.

He patted you on the head and said: "Yes, Master Du reminded you right, now is not the time to talk to them about the conditions, what conditions do they have, you just have to agree first, as long as they withdraw from the army!" ”

"Understood!" Du Weihong arched his hand.

At this time, the hanging basket has been prepared, a pulley shelf has been prepared, there is a thick hemp rope hanging on the pulley, the lower end is divided into four strands tied to the hanging basket, Du Jianhong walked into the hanging basket and grabbed the rope, the other end of the thick hemp rope was pulled by several strong soldiers, after the rope was pulled up, the hanging basket was also pulled up, a soldier twisted the pulley frame in one direction, the hanging basket was suspended outside the city wall, the soldiers slowly put down the hemp rope, the hanging basket gradually descended until it fell to the ground, Du Jianhong moved his hands and feet and strode to the moat, The drawbridge was lowered, and he walked up the drawbridge towards the Han naval formation on the opposite side.

At this time, Wang Zhengjian and the others on the city wall looked at Du Jianhong very nervously, lest the soldiers of the Han Navy on the opposite side would be unfavorable to Du Jianhong, and if the people on the opposite side did something to Du Jianhong, it would mean that there was no room for negotiation at all.
