Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Storm of Uprising (Part II)
I called Zu Cheng and asked him to go to the opposite Qin army camp on my behalf to make an announcement, after all, both sides are here to quell the rebellion, so it is best not to cause misunderstanding. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zu Cheng came back dejected not long after, obviously suffering from a belly of guilt, he said angrily: "Son, people let us be nosy, how far we go." ”
Ge Feng and I looked at each other and smiled.
Ge Feng said: "The general of the unified army is either a madman or a fool, could it be that he wants to attack from the front?" ”
At dawn, the 2,000 troops from the city actually attacked the quarry from the front.
Ge Feng and Zu Cheng and I stood on the high hill and looked at the battle situation in the distance, but we saw that about 500 advance troops of the Qin army had advanced up to the halfway point of the mountain, but there was no reaction in the hard labor camp in the quarry.
Ge Feng said in a low voice: "I didn't expect that these prisoners could calm down!" ”
The second group of the Qin army began to march upward.
At this time, I saw that countless prisoners suddenly appeared on the wall of the quarry, they raised the stones in their hands and threw them down the mountain, and the stones were thrown down the mountain like raindrops.
I couldn't help but feel a little chilled when I looked at the bloody scene, closed my eyes and sighed: "The general is a fool!" ”
Ge Feng said: "Two thousand soldiers and horses can't afford to toss him at all, if they blindly attack again, before noon, they will be wiped out." ”
Suddenly there was a commotion behind him.
I turned to look, only to see Feng Tu breaking free from several soldiers and walking towards my side.
Zu Cheng said angrily: "Bastard, what do you want to do?" ”
When Feng Tu saw me, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and knocked me twice: "Childe, my brother is in there, you must let him live!" ”
I was slightly stunned: "Your brother? At this time, I remembered the conversation with Feng Tu in Yucheng that day. I sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to let him go, but if these prisoners continue to mess around, I'll have to trap them here." ”
Feng Tu said with tears in his eyes: "Childe, I only have this one brother, please let him go and give him a way to live." ”
I was annoyed because I couldn't think of how to break through this quarry, so I waved my hand and said: "You go down first, if they don't come down, I have no choice but to watch them starve to death and die of thirst......" Speaking of this, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I turned to Zu Cheng and said: "How do they solve the problem of drinking water?" ”
Zu Cheng sighed and said, "There is a small stream flowing into the quarry at the top of the mountain, so these prisoners will not worry about the water problem. ”
At this time, the Qin army of Xiangcheng began to launch a second assault, and I was too lazy to look at their miserable situation. Waving his hand to Ge Feng and Zu Cheng, and when he came to the side, I whispered, "Is there a way to bypass the quarry and go to the mountain above?" ”
Zu Chengdao: "Even if we go around to the top, from the mountain peaks above to the quarry are all cliffs, and even if we get there, there is no way to enter the quarry." ”
I sneered, "As long as you can go to the upper reaches of that creek, you can cut off their water source." ”
Both of them had a bright eye.
I whispered, "Put poison into the water source, what resistance do these prisoners have after drinking it?" ”
Ge Feng was overjoyed: "Why didn't I think of such a simple thing? He took the initiative to ask: "Brother, leave this matter to me, and I will lead twenty people to go around the side to the peak above the quarry, find a water source, and sprinkle more laxatives into the stream, and keep it in less than three days, so that these prisoners will not be able to get up one by one." ”
We couldn't help but laugh out loud.
After the Qin army from Xiangcheng attacked hard for a while, most of the casualties had been killed, but the stupid general still did not have any remorse, and still blindly commanded his subordinates to attack upward.
I looked at their camp from afar, couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook my head, and said to Zu Cheng: "It seems that this group of Qin troops is about to be wiped out. ”
Zu Cheng nodded sympathetically, but at this moment, he saw a sudden change in the Qin army camp, and the Qin army camp in Xiangcheng actually fought with each other, I secretly shouted that it was not good, the Qin army was obviously unwilling to die in vain, and actually killed the generals who led the army.
I shouted, "Everyone prepare!" ”
Zu Cheng said in a low voice: "Do you want to go over and have a look?" ”
I shook my head and said, "They're just infighting, they have nothing to do with us, as long as they don't attack us, let those rebels disperse on their own." ”
After the Qin army killed the generals, they really didn't have the courage to come and challenge us, and they fled in panic one by one. After they were completely dispersed, I asked Zu Cheng to lead his men to clean up the battlefield, and I picked up a lot of blades, bows and arrows, which was an extra bonus for us.
Ge Feng successfully completed the task, and after sprinkling laxatives in the water source, he blocked the stream, which was equivalent to completely cutting off the water source of the prisoners, and two days later, the prisoners of Beiliangshan could no longer hold on, and the howling sound could be faintly heard.
Feng Tu came to me again.
I figured that the prisoners in the quarry were no longer capable of resisting, so I summoned Feng Tu.
Feng Tu kowtowed vigorously when he saw me, I motioned for him to stand up, and said in a low voice: "Feng Tu, I want people to go to the quarry to persuade me to surrender, do you dare to go?" ”
Feng Tu was asked by me, looking at me with his eyes wide open, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.
"Don't you want to save your brother?"
"I think! But can Childe guarantee that if they surrender, you will let them go? "Feng Tu obviously didn't have confidence in whether I could spare those prisoners.
I laughed and said, "When did I repent? ”
Zu Cheng on the side said coldly: "Feng Tu, do you think they still have a chance?" If you don't fall, staying in the quarry is also a dead end, if you fall, there is still a glimmer of life, where to go, you choose for yourself. ”
Feng Tu said with tears in his eyes: "Childe must remember his words, if I persuade them to surrender, Childe must let my brother live." ”
I was concerned: "Those prisoners are extremely vicious, and now they can do anything, so you have to be careful yourself." ”
Feng Tu kowtowed to me three more times before going back to prepare.
Zu Cheng said in a low voice: "Childe really plans to let those prisoners go? ”
I smiled and said: "There are still a lot of Qin troops in their hands, I can't watch them die...... after a pause and said: "If they weren't forced to be helpless, I don't think they would have done such a troublesome thing, if we captured them all, there would be only one death waiting for them." ”
Zu Cheng sighed and said, "Gongzi is right, but if we release these prisoners, I am afraid that the king will definitely investigate them after he finds out." ”
"So we have to be very clever in letting them live."
Zu Cheng didn't understand what I meant, and looked at me with curiosity.
I said in a low voice: "The Inurong people have a town in our north, and further north is Xiliangshan, I give them a way out, that is, to attack that town, flee to Xiliangshan, and chase after them, even if the king is shrewd, he can't see anything unusual." ”
Zu Cheng smiled and said, "Childe wants to use those five thousand prisoners to take down the Sifang Town of the Dog Rong people? ”
"It's up to them to want it."
Feng Tu went to the quarry to negotiate, and did not return until dusk, and with him came his brother Feng Xi, although Feng Xi was tall, but his face was yellow and thin, and the whole person was almost collapsed because of drinking the laxative-rich stream water, and I met with Feng Xi alone.
Feng Xi's eyes were full of doubt, and he could see that he was quite scheming, and he maintained a high degree of suspicion that I asked Feng Tu to persuade him to surrender.
Feng Xin went straight to the point and said: "Childe, I can't hide it, the reason why these five thousand brothers resisted was because they were led by me. The reason why I dare to come to see you is because I am responsible for these brothers. ”
I smiled and said, "What I admire most in my life is a man who values love and righteousness, it seems that Brother Feng will never run for his life alone?" ”
Feng Xian nodded heavily and said, "Our brothers, we want to live together, and we want to die together." ”
I sighed and said, "Do you know how much hard your eldest brother has endured for you?" ”
Feng Xi's eyes turned red and said: "I know, but I want to give an explanation to my brothers, if Gongzi doesn't promise to let us all go, we would rather die with those more than 200 Qin troops." ”
I whispered, "I can let you go, but you have to do me a small favor." ”
Feng Xin pursed his lips and said, "Childe, please speak." ”
"Tonight, I will give way to the west, and you will flee west with your brethren......" I paused and said, "The king will soon send a large army to quell the rebellion, if you flee to the Qin State, there is only one way to die, and to go west to Xiliang Mountain, hidden in the mountains and forests, is your only way to escape." ”
Feng Xi was silent.
I said again: "The Dog Rong people in Sifang Town often harass my territory, I have long had the intention of taking Sifang Town, this time I want you and my brothers to help me drive away the Dog Rong people in Sifang Town, I get Sifang Town, you get enough food and supplies, go to Xiliang Mountain to hide, and when the time is ripe in the future, I will find a way to give you freedom again." ”
