Suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes: "When I first raised troops in Hebei, I saw that Kong Juji was a bloody man, heroic by nature, and he was also very kind to his brothers, and he would charge forward in every battle, but he was a hero worthy of service. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"It's common for a man to like fast horses and beauties, but ...... However, how can you attack your own loved ones? If you say one more thing, I'm also dirty with my mouth. The old Brother Kong...... When it's dead. ”

Lu Benzhong nodded and said in a low voice: "General Liu Fu is right, how can a dignified Yan Zhao boy take refuge in such a beast." As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to perch, and I don't know what the general plans to do in the future? ”

Liu Fu muttered, "I don't know, I don't know." ”

Lu Benzhong's eyes rolled and said, "General Liu Fu, the old man has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. ”

Liu Fu: "Master Lu, please speak." ”

Lu Benzhong: "About General Liu Fu doesn't know, just yesterday the old man had persuaded Kong Yanzhou to let him accept the imperial court's recruitment, since everyone will return to the Great Song Dynasty in the future, it is better to rely on the city gate to descend Wang Daosi." Anyway, Wang Shen is also the defense envoy of Huangzhou in the imperial court, and he can be regarded as taking the right path if he surrenders. ”

As he spoke, he roughly repeated what he said to Kong Yanzhou yesterday.

"Descend to the king, think ......," Liu Fu groaned.

Lu Benzhong: "What, the general is unwilling?" ”

Liu Fu: "Wang Daosi is a hero, so it is naturally good to surrender him." But...... After all, I have served under Kong Yanzhou for many years, and this kind of betrayal of the master cannot be done below. Although it is said that Kong Yanzhou is now a beast. ”

As he spoke, he shook his head firmly.

Lu Ben Center was annoyed: This surnamed Liu is really not happy, how can he be more pedantic than the old man?

He continued: "General Liu Fu, as far as the old man knows, there are five or six hundred soldiers under your command, all of whom are the children of the army when they raised troops in Hebei before. Even if Wang Shen can't break the city for a while, once Kong Yanzhou is recruited, you will have to serve under him. How could General Liu and his heroes be willing to be restrained by such a villain again? ”

"No, it can't be like this!" Liu Fu was still shaking his head, and he grabbed his hair with his hands in pain: "I don't want to care about anything, I don't want to care about anything." ”

Lu Benzhong's mind moved again: "General Liu Fu's thoughts are also understood, but when the judgment continues, he will suffer from it!" Since you don't want to care about anything, you can withdraw your men to the camp. The old man and Wang Shen have been together for a long time, and a certain person is also a court official, Wang Daosi is also very respectful to the old man, and the old man guarantees the net worth of you and your brothers at that time. As for the future, it will not leave you without an end. As for the other soldiers of the Kong family's army, they are willing to follow you and accept themselves, if they are unwilling, the old man can't control so much. ”

Liu Fu was still silent, and Lu Benzhong said urgently: "General Liu Fu, you also know the current situation, there are no reinforcements outside, and the food and grass in the city are cut off, is it possible that you want to watch all the Hebei men die with Kong Yanzhou, a beast?" In this way, what face will you have to meet Jiangdong's father in the future, you can't be too selfish! ”

Liu Fu suddenly woke up, and he sighed: "Yes, I came from the south of Hebei to have 10,000 soldiers under my command, most of whom were children of relatives. There are only a few hundred left, and this time we must not let them all die in this inexplicable place. Otherwise, if the hometown father asks me for someone, how should I reply. Master Lu, there is chaos in my heart, and it is all up to you to decide. ”

Lu Benzhong: "General Liu Fu, where are your children?" ”

Liu Fu replied: "They are all scattered in the four gates of Qichun, and the north gate is the most, with about 300 soldiers, and they can't be gathered for a while." Moreover, they are all gathered, and the movement is too big. ”

Lu Benzhong: "Let's go to the north gate first to withdraw all the troops to the barracks, and as for other places, just send someone to inform you." I don't have to wait for anything, just stay in the barracks. As for whether Kong Yanzhou can keep Qi Chun, it doesn't matter what I'm waiting for. He held it, Wang Shen withdrew the army, let's talk to the surnamed Kong, everyone is good to gather and disperse, so many soldiers and horses are in hand, are you afraid that Kong Yanzhou will use it? If Kong Yanzhou can't hold it, after the city is broken, I will go to Wang Shen to say a word, and then ask him to give me a gift and wait for me to leave the city. ”

Liu Fu didn't speak again, only took a deep look.

Soon, the two of them went up to the north gate wall.

After two months of bloody fighting, the soldiers in the city were all in tattered clothes and armor, and their faces were depressed.

Since the Sizhou army adopted a posture of encircling Qi Chun but not fighting, the soldiers have also relaxed a lot. There is no sun today, but the sky is full of dark clouds, and the whole city is like a steamer. Everyone couldn't stand the heat, so they all went up to the city wall to welcome the cool breeze blowing in the whirring, and the people and horses gathered.

Opposite the north gate is a large open space, and there is an official road outside the city, which is the traffic artery connecting Qizhou to Huaixi. It's just that in the past, because of the water, Wang Shen was afraid that once the water rose, the troops would be divided in the east of the river. Therefore, only a small number of men and horses were put here, and a long fortress and a ditch and a deer fence were built to besiege it.

Seeing the two of them going up to the city, an officer stepped forward to salute: "I've seen Master Lu and General Liu Fu, but I don't know what the two of you have ordered here?" ”

Without waiting for Liu Fu to speak, Lu Benzhong asked: "General Gu, which way is the Sizhou Army on the other side, and who is the leading general?" ”

The officer surnamed Gu said: "If you go back to the Lu Division, outside is Wang Shen's Xuanfeng Army, and the leading general is Lu Can, the deputy envoy for the defense of Huangzhou, and there are 2,000 soldiers. As he spoke, he said: "Master Lu rest assured, the Xuanfeng Army is not considered elite in the Sizhou Army, although there are many people and horses, we can rely on the city wall, and we can still resist it." It is...... It's ......"

Hearing that it was Lu Can's selection of the vanguard, Lu Ben was slightly disappointed. Originally, he wanted to persuade Liu Fu to open the city gate and surrender to Wang Shen, but Liu Fu refused to live or die. Then, he could only retreat and persuade him to withdraw all the troops directly under him. In this way, the entire Qichun City will inevitably be empty of troops and loopholes on all sides, Wang Shen will naturally seize this rare opportunity to start attacking the city and capture Kong Yanzhou in one fell swoop.

Even if Qi Chun can't be taken for a while, Liu Fu's sudden withdrawal of troops will inevitably arouse Kong Yanzhou's vigilance, and there will be a big civil strife at that time.

No matter what the result is, this Qichun City is finished.

However, the key to this matter is the cooperation of the Sizhou army, and Wang Shen's actions must be fast, so as not to give Kong Yanzhou a chance to come back to his senses and rectify the order.

Lu Benzhong stayed in Huangzhou for a long time, and he knew the character of the major generals of the Sizhou Army well. Lu Can is upright and strong, but there is a little bit of a bad thing, he thinks he wants to be safe in doing things, and he is easily unwilling to make a decision. As soon as the troops here at the north gate are withdrawn, the city's air defense is weak, and I don't know if Lu Ziyu will seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

It would be nice if the leading generals outside were Yue Yun and Hu Yantong, and the old man didn't have such troubles.

Lu Benzhong asked, "What is it?" ”

The officer surnamed Gu said: "It's just that the weather is too hot, there is a shortage of water in the army, and the soldiers only have a small bowl of well water full of mud and sand every day. ”

Hearing him say this, Liu Fu found that all the soldiers had shells on their lips, and when they heard this water word, everyone was eager to do it.

Liu Fu felt sad in his heart and asked, "Gu Fugui, how many years have you been with me?" ”

Gu Fugui said: "General Liu Fu, you have forgotten that when you were a soldier in your hometown, I was still farming in the field." I heard that in the army, you can drink wine and eat meat in large bowls, and I will look for you with a hoe, and it has been many years. ”

Liu Fu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and sighed: "Yes, it's been many years, and we're still fellow villagers, so I'm really sorry for making you starving." Let's go, gather the soldiers and go back to the camp, and I will have two pots of plum soup boiled for the brothers. ”

"That's a good feeling, but, General Liu, the city defense here?" Gu Fugui hesitated.

Liu Fu smiled bitterly: "Don't worry about it, let Kong Yanzhou worry about it himself." ”

Before Gu Fugui could say more, the other soldiers jumped up happily and said in unison: "I'll wait for death, let's go and go back to the barracks to drink soup." ”

In an instant, hundreds of people poured under the city walls.

Lu Benzhong grabbed the two soldiers and said, "A few of you go to the other three city gates and call all the soldiers of your department back to the camp, and General Liu Fu will be rewarded." ”

The two soldiers nodded again and again: "It's all their own brothers, how can you forget them, let's go." ”

Seeing that the soldiers under Liu Fu's command were scattered, an officer led by Kong Yanzhou was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward: "General Liu Fu, you have transferred so many men and horses, how can you hold it if the Sizhou army comes to fight later?" Does the Lord know about this? ”

Liu Fu said lightly: "Seeing the hard work of his soldiers, I want to reward everyone, that is a certain little heart, I am out of my own pocket, and I don't need to tell others." ”

"But, but...... Don't go, don't go. ”

Gu Fugui saw that he was rude to his own general, and immediately annoyed, and scolded: "We are all dying of thirst, drink mud soup these days, the military master, you don't use the military master to oppress people." If you want to make us die, you can bring some wine and meat. ”

"Yes, yes, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers?" The other soldiers were in an uproar.

Someone else scolded: "What army master is not a military master, if there is food to eat, we will recognize you as the master." If you don't give food and clothing, who will recognize you. When a soldier eats food, eats food and becomes a soldier, there is no food or drink, we might as well farm in our hometown, what do we endure here? ”

Speaking of annoyance, someone suddenly lifted a stick and smashed it down, knocking the person unconscious to the ground.

No one stopped them, and the soldiers dispersed in an instant.

Hearing that there was plum soup to drink, not only Liu Fu's troops, but also the soldiers and conscripted people from other parts of the city also mixed in with them, wanting to get a piece of the pie.

The huge north gate city wall, suddenly there is not a single figure in sight.

Seeing this situation, Lu Benzhong knew that the city was broken in the present dynasty. I was greatly relieved in my heart, and I was proud again: Okay, I can finally leave the hell on earth in Qichun...... Straight mother thief, the old beast surnamed Kong insulted me too much, and today I will take your head to eliminate the hatred in my heart. It's just that I don't know if that Lu Can can seize this fighter......

Just thinking about it, Liu Fu shouted: "Master Lu, let's go!" ”

"Just come, General Liu Fu, you wait for the old man."
