Chapter 25 Lu Shikui
Cheng Yue watched them get on a boat alone and leave safely. Immediately turned the horse's head, took out the token, passed through the layers of fortifications of the Yuan army, and took more than 100 men and horses dressed in Yuan army clothes, and went straight to Chenzhou.
The token is really easy to use, three days ahead, Cheng Yue passed through many states and counties, and also encountered a lot of Yuan soldiers and horses, as long as the token is raised, people and horses do not need to stop, just gallop past.
After passing through another mountain, a large camp finally appeared in front of them. Cheng Yue stepped forward and asked someone, it was Lu Shikui's back camp.
found the main owner, Cheng Yue led the men and horses through the camp and went straight to the Chinese army camp.
The token was presented, the intention was explained, and someone reported it.
After a while, someone came out to greet him, Cheng Yue ordered his men to rest and feed the horses, and he followed the people to Lu Shikui's big tent.
Cheng Yue walked into the big tent, and there were more than a dozen people inside. In the middle sat a middle-aged man with a beautiful hair.
The middle-aged man glanced up at Cheng Yue, and Cheng Yue immediately saluted and said, "Humble Wang Sancai, I came to deliver the letter on the order of Lord Ali Hague." With that, he handed over the letter.
Lu Shikui took the letter, read it carefully, and said after a moment of silence: "Lord Youcheng said in the letter that he wanted to spare Xie Fangde and his subordinate Zhang Xiaozhong, and said that this was your suggestion. Do you know what Xie Fangde's relationship is with this official? He was good friends with this official when he was in the puppet Song Dynasty before, and a few days ago he used his whole family's life in the court of the puppet Song Dynasty to protect me from raising the banner of rebellion and returning to the Yuan. If he is left alive by this official, is Lord Youcheng willing to say it for this official? ”
Cheng Yue said sincerely: "I know all these things, so I asked Lord Youcheng to repair a book, and I sent it myself." Lord Lu doesn't have to worry, Xie Fang naturally persuaded him to surrender from his humble side, and then sent them to Changzhou by his humble needle, and was sent by Prime Minister Boyan. ”
As soon as Lu Shikui heard Cheng Yue's words, his expression suddenly turned cold, and he stared at Cheng Yue and said coldly: "Persuade to surrender? What do you know as a young man? I know Xie Fang very well about this person, stubborn, crippling, ignorant of the general trend of the world, and bent on protecting the pseudo-Song Dynasty, it is impossible for such a person to surrender. I have always admired Lord Youcheng, and I can't bear to let you die. It's better to wait for me to defeat him, if I can capture him alive, I will hand it over to Prime Minister Boyan, and I will ask you to take him there, how about it? ”
Cheng Yue smiled faintly and replied calmly, "Lord Lu, please rest assured." Although the humble is young, he is not a reckless person, and the humble has his own way to make them surrender, if not, but let them ask for their life. No matter what, the humble is grateful to Lord Lu for his fulfillment. ”
Lu Shikui saw that he didn't care, and he was even more angry. Leaving the seat, he walked in front of Cheng Yue, suppressed his anger, and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Wang Sancai, this official knows that Xie Fangde is a talent that the Great Khan wants to recruit, and he also knows that you are eager to make meritorious contributions, but this matter is too dangerous, if you are hurt, I am afraid that Lord Youcheng will not be able to explain." If you must go, sign a life and death certificate, and the official will fulfill you. But you must think about it, that Xie Fangde will never surrender. ”
Cheng Yue smiled slightly and said: "My lord's concern, Wang is very emotional, but in this matter, Wang has asked Lord Youcheng to write a letter, and asked Lord Lu for approval, so there is no reason to retreat." Thank you, sir, please take the life and death certificate. ”
Lu Shikui's anger was completely gone. The generals in the tent originally thought that he didn't know how to be kind, and they were a little disdainful, but when they heard that this "Wang Sancai" was so tough, they couldn't help but admire.
Lu Shikui nodded and said, "Okay, good, the future life is terrifying." Come and take the state of life and death. Bring the wine, and the official will see you off. ”
Cheng Yue signed the life and death certificate without hesitation, took the wine handed over by Lu Shikui and drank it in one gulp, and then said with a smile: "I don't know where this Xie Fang is now, so I will persuade him to surrender." ”
Lu Shikui said: "I drove you to Yugan County, if you want to go, go quickly, I will send someone to take you over." If you can succeed, the official will also take credit for you. ”
Cheng Yue Shili withdrew, and an officer came out of it, and bowed his hand to him: "Brother Zhou Zhengzhong, a thousand households in the Han army." Brother Wang is so bold. Please follow me. ”
Cheng Yue gathered people, led by Zhou Zhengzhong, and went straight to Yugan County out of the camp.
Along the way, Cheng Yue asked Zhou Zhengzhong for news, only to know that Xie Fang was really in danger now.
Jiangdong sentenced Xie Fangde to Raozhou, but soon after Lu Shikui's troops trapped Raozhou, Raozhou was breached. Xie Fangde and Zhang Xiaozhong could only retreat to Yugan.
Fuzhou judged Zhang Rudan, recruited thousands of strong men in Yugan, and greeted them in Yugan. But Wu Liangbi has already gone to attack Yugan, and he has 20,000 horses, Wu Liangbi is famous for his good fighting, and Yugan County fell only in an instant.
Cheng Yue asked, "Is there a place near Yugan County called Tuanhuping?" ”
"Yes, it is between Yugan and Huashan (this Huashan is not Bihua Mountain), it is a low-lying place. How does Brother Wang know? ”
"I heard that it's a great place for fishing, haha." Cheng Yue replied casually
Zhou Zhengzhong saw that Cheng Yue was still thinking about fishing at this time, and the more he admired it in his heart, he must say that this person is courageous, although he is only a deputy thousand households, but his achievements in the future must be limitless.
Cheng Yue decided in his heart. Originally, Xie Fangde and Zhang Xiaozhong should have been caught up by the Yuan army in Tuanhuping, and all 5,000 people were killed, and Xie Fang had to flee. It seems that there is still time to undo it.
The crowd walked forward for several hours, and in the evening, they arrived at the camp of Wuliangbi outside Yugan County.
Although Wu Liangbi commanded the army, he later served as an imperial envoy, and like Lu Shikui, he belonged to a figure with both civil and military skills.
Zhou Zhengzhong took Cheng Yue without informing, and directly entered Wu Liangbi's military tent.
Wu Liangbi is reading, and the day after tomorrow he will attack Yu Gan, and it is his habit to read books before the war. Seeing Zhou Zhengzhong bring people in, he was stunned for a moment, put down the book and said with a smile: "What's the matter, Lord Lu is not worried about me, so he sent someone to help in the war?" ”
Zhou Zhengzhong and Cheng Yue gave a salute, and Zhou Zhengzhong smiled: "The adults are laughing at us Lord Lu again, if you don't fight well, we Lord Lu can't do anything." Ha ha. My lord, this deputy Wang Qianhu was sent by Lord Ali Hague to recruit Xie Fangde, Lord Lu ordered me to send people here, please watch the rest. ”
"Ali Hague?" Wu Liangbi looked at Cheng Yue in surprise, and asked with a puzzled face: "Why does Lord Youcheng want to recruit this Xie Fang?" Did anyone recommend him in front of the Great Khan? ”
Cheng Yue said: "Lord Hui, there is a person named Hao Jing next to the Great Khan, this person once mentioned to the Great Khan the literary figures of the Southern Song Dynasty, this Xie Fangde has been highlighted, and Lord Ali Hague has also heard of it. We adults think, when the Southern Song Dynasty is defeated, we must always win the hearts of the people, if this Xie Fangde can be submitted, wouldn't it be comparable to tens of thousands of heroes? Therefore they sent humiliation to persuade him to surrender. ”
Wu Liangbi thought for a while and said, "I see it difficult. This Xie Fangde would have come down a long time ago, and he had persuaded him many times, but each time he returned in vain. This person can only kill, not fall. You're just afraid of running away in vain. However, the foresight of Lord Youcheng is admirable. ”
Cheng Yue really admires Xie Fangde, this old man's stinky and hard temper is well known. So he smiled and said, "Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven." Several adults have been troubled by me, and the life and death certificate has also been signed, and I ask the adults to let me give it a try. You can't just go back. ”
Wu Liangbi also smiled, looked at Cheng Yue and said, "Okay, if you want to make this contribution, I can't stop you." The life and death certificates have been signed, what a boldness. Take a break tonight, it's the New Year, and I have a lot of delicious food here. I'll let you go and see tomorrow, this city can't be called. ”
"Thank you, sir." Cheng Yue bowed and withdrew.
Zhou Zhengzhong is also a bold person, and took Cheng Yue to find an officer he knew in the army, and got together to roast and eat meat.
Cheng Yue and everyone had a good meal of Yuan Jun's barbecue, and while eating, they remembered the seasonings they brought, which was unpleasant. But he always takes advantage of the Yuan army, so he doesn't feel sorry for so much meat that is not delicious enough.
Everyone never dreamed that they would sit down with Yuan Jun to eat, and they were inevitably a little nervous. But as soon as they saw Cheng Yue asking for this and that with a smile on his face, they couldn't help but feel ashamed and admired, and reminded each other not to drink and make mistakes, but they weren't too afraid.
Zhou Zhengzhong had the intention of making friends with Cheng Yue, and Cheng Yue also had a very happy conversation with him, and agreed that if the surrender was successful, Cheng Yue would ask Lu Shikui to send Zhou Zhengzhong and Cheng Yue to Changzhou to meet Boyan.
The next morning, Cheng Yue single-handedly went to Yugan City to call the city. Zhou Zhengzhong originally wanted to follow, but he always felt that it was too dangerous and didn't dare to mention it. What he didn't know was that Cheng Yue couldn't take him there.
Cheng Yue arrived not far from the city, and a few arrows had been shot down from the city.
Cheng Yue pushed away the arrow and continued to walk forward.
The Song army in the city didn't know what Cheng Yue was going to do, and when he saw that he was only riding alone, he hesitated for a moment and let him over.
Cheng Yue took out Wen Tianxiang's warrant from his arms, wrapped it in a stone, and threw it on. Laughing while throwing it, this thing is really a magic weapon. But fortunately, I was in time, otherwise if I was on the battlefield, no one would look at it.
Cheng Yue was waiting for someone to ask, but a basket like the last time in Tanzhou had already hung down.
Cheng Yue sighed and sat in helplessly.
This time, the basket rose extremely fast, Cheng Yue almost really thought that he was taking the elevator, plus the county seat was low, and before Cheng Yue could react, he had already arrived at the head of the city.
Next to him, Song Jun held a knife and gun against Cheng Yue, and in the middle was a big man in an official uniform with a broad face.
