Chapter 85: Tense Confrontation
Lu Gong and You Heng stared at the two generals opposite, but they didn't put away their swords. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The other civil and military generals looked at each other, all of them looking nervous.
Lu Tiecheng stared at Lu Gong and the others for a moment, and then said slowly to the two generals under him: "General Niu and General Ping, put away the sword, they are all your own people." ”
The two generals listened to the order, hesitated for a while, and then slowly inserted the saber back into the scabbard, but their eyes were always staring at You Heng and the others with strong hostility.
Ling Yan saw that the two generals put away their swords, and they also hurriedly said to Lu Gong and You Heng: "The two generals should also put away their swords." ”
Only then did Lu Gong and You Heng take their swords back.
At this time, Lu Tiecheng said to Ling Yan in a deep voice: "General Yan, General Ping went to arrest He Rong on my order, you are not allowed to stop it any longer, otherwise things will not be so simple." ”
When Ping Han heard Lu Tiecheng say this, he immediately hugged his fists and went out.
Ling Yan didn't stop Ping Han again, but said to Lu Tiecheng in a very helpless tone: "General Lu...... He Rong surrendered sincerely, and asked General Lu to find out before making a decision, so as not to kill the good people by mistake. ”
"Good guys?" Lu Tiecheng smiled strangely, "Do you think he is a good person?" What do you think of Gao Ran? ”
Ling Yan didn't know why Lu Tiecheng had such a question, so he replied truthfully: "Although Gao Ran rescued Yan Liang, I feel that this person is still trustworthy and a trustworthy person. ”
Lu Tiecheng smiled coldly: "So, you just let him go?" ”
Ling Yan hurriedly explained: "I let him go, it's all because I want to use him to fool the enemy army and borrow him to trick me. ”
"Hmph, your strategy almost wiped out my entire army, why are you embarrassed to say it?" Lu Tiecheng raised his voice.
Ling Yan said dejectedly: "Yes, it's all my fault...... However, it has nothing to do with General He Rong! ”
Lu Tiecheng said coldly: "I said it, this person is a person who pretended to surrender and secretly collaborated with the enemy, you don't have to defend him anymore." ”
At this time, Lu Gong also advised: "General Lu...... General He Rong saved my life in the previous battle with Yan Liang...... Moreover, the injuries he suffered were all caused by Yan Liang, and they almost killed him...... It seems to me that he really did not collaborate with the enemy......"
"There's no place for you to speak." Lu Tiecheng still said this coldly.
Lu Gong was dumbfounded, stunned, and looked a little overwhelmed.
Kuai Liang bowed his hand to Lu Tiecheng at this time: "General Lu, in Yiliang's foolish opinion, General He Rong really surrendered. If the general kills this person, not only will the morale of the army be shaken, but it will also chill the hearts of those who intend to vote, which will be unfavorable to me. ”
"General Kuai, this defeat, the army's morale has been turbulent, and you still need to care about the problem of killing and surrendering the general's army's heart to waver?" Lu Tiecheng said coldly, "And what is really unfavorable to me is not to kill this person and make others feel cold, but to leave this dangerous person in our army!" General Kuai, if he really loses the Great Victory City in the future, how bad is this? ”
Kuai Liang stopped talking, just shook his head gently.
You Heng then asked, "General Lu, why do you think He Rong is a dangerous person?" ”
Lu Tiecheng took a slow breath: "I don't rely on anything, I just think he is a dangerous person, what?" ”
You Heng's expression tightened, and he muttered something.
Even Ling Yan didn't hear what he said, but the horn suddenly became angry again: "Hmph! General Lu's decision, do you still need to explain the reason! ”
Ling Yan was afraid that the situation would become more serious, so he hurriedly said to Niu Jiao: "The general is angry, your general didn't mean this...... I'm just afraid that there will be a misunderstanding and kill a good general by mistake. ”
Niu Jiao glanced at Ling Yan, but did not speak again.
Ling Yan looked at Lu Tiecheng and said in a pleading tone again, "General Lu, it's better to find out carefully before making a decision." ”
Lu Tiecheng suddenly smiled: "General Yan, you are no longer the main general, do you think your words are still effective?" ”
Ling Yan said helplessly: "General Lu, I know that I don't have the right to decide things now, but I don't want to mistakenly kill the generals who sincerely surrendered to us, so that no one will dare to surrender to us in the future." ”
Lu Tiecheng said coldly: "General Yan, I don't need you to teach me a lesson now, I can see at a glance who is sincere and who is pretending to surrender." ”
Ling Yan was a little speechless, secretly anxious in his heart, thinking about how to save He Rong's life. He knew that if Lu Tiecheng insisted on going his own way and had to kill He Rong, it would really not be easy to save his life.
Seeing this, Kuai Liang admonished Lu Tiecheng again: "General Lu, in good opinion, it is better to take a closer look." ”
Lu Tiecheng didn't speak, just looked at Ling Yan and the others coldly.
At this time, a shout came from outside the hall: "He Rong has brought!" ”
"Come in!" Lu Tiecheng said sharply.
As soon as the words fell, I saw Ping Han Yaowu enter the conference hall proudly, and the two soldiers behind him escorted He Rong in.
Ling Yan looked back and saw that He Rong's injuries didn't seem to have improved much, and his weak and tired face was full of horror at this time.
He Rong looked around in panic, but finally saw Ling Yan looking at him with a complicated expression, so he asked Ling Yan in a trembling voice, "General Yan...... This...... What's going on......"
Ling Yan's face was embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer, but suddenly he had an idea, and said to He Rong: "General He, it's nothing, you came to surrender to us, General Lu doesn't know if you really surrender, so I ask you to come and ask." ”
He Rong was so frightened that he hurriedly shouted, "General Yan! He Rong really came to surrender! There is no intention to deceive the general! ”
Ling Yan nodded lightly: "General He, you don't have to be afraid, I believe that you are sincere in surrendering, but General Lu is still suspicious, you still need to show your intentions again." ”
He Rong hurriedly knelt down towards Lu Tiecheng and sobbed: "General Lu! He Rong sincerely surrendered! I am willing to serve General Lu and General Yan! Don't dare to be rebellious! ”
Ling Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at Lu Tiecheng.
Lu Tiecheng looked at He Rong and snorted coldly: "He Rong, you said that you are sincere and surrendered, how can I believe you?" ”
He Rong hurriedly said: "General Lu! What I say is true! He Rong asks to go into battle! To show loyalty! ”
Lu Tiecheng said coldly: "Hmph, how dare I use you as a general?" You were originally a subordinate of Han Fu, but you defected and easily surrendered to General Yan, and you still dare to claim loyalty? ”
He Rong was stunned for a moment: "General Lu...... He Rong took it seriously...... Surrender ...... heart"
Lu Tiecheng stared at He Rong's eyes tightly: "You said that you surrendered sincerely, then let me ask you, before Yuan Shao attacked the city, you were defeated and fled, but you did not surrender Yuan Shao, the road was intercepted by General Yan, you only fought for a while, and then dismounted and surrendered, but why?" ”
He Rong didn't expect Lu Tiecheng to ask such a question, and he was stunned for a while: "This ...... This ......"
Lu Tiecheng snorted: "I don't know what to say, do I?" I said yes, right? ”
He Rong was so frightened that he hurriedly said, "General Lu! Not really! I truly surrendered! ”
Lu Tiecheng said coldly: "Your kind of strategy is simply teasing me as a child!" Suddenly, his voice became stern, and he said to Ping Han: "Escort him down and behead him immediately!" ”
"Yes!" Ping Han responded, and with a wave of his hand, the two soldiers escorted He Rong.
He Rong was so shocked that his face was full of panic, and shouted: "The general spares his life!" The general spares his life! ”
Ling Yan hurriedly said to Lu Tiecheng: "General Lu! How can you kill a military general easily! ”
Kuai Liang was also surprised: "General Lu, is it a bit hasty to give such an order?" ”
"I've already investigated! How can it be sloppy! Lu Tiecheng's voice was fierce, and he said to Ping Han, "Hold on!" Slashed! ”
"Yes!" Ping Han replied, and the two soldiers under him dragged He Rong outside.
He Rong struggled and shouted desperately: "General Lu! He Rong sincerely surrendered! There is no bullying of the general! I am willing to make meritorious deeds! Don't kill me! ”
Seeing that Lu Tiecheng was indifferent, He Rong cried at Ling Yan again: "General Yan! Say it to General Lu! I really surrendered! ”
Ling Yan was anxious and said loudly to Lu Tiecheng: "General Lu! If General He Rong is killed, I am afraid that no one will dare to surrender in the future! I can guarantee that General He Rong will never surrender to the enemy! ”
Kuai Liang also pleaded: "General Lu, think twice!" ”
Lu Tiecheng didn't say a word, and watched coldly as He Rong cried and was escorted out.
Lu Gong looked at Ling Yan and was anxious to know what to do: "General Yan, this ......"
Ling Yan watched He Rong being taken out of the hall, he was anxious, and said to Lu Tiecheng urgently: "General Lu! I guarantee with my life that General He Rong is absolutely single-minded towards General Ling and General Lu! Look......"
"That's it!" Lu Tiecheng waved his hand impatiently and interrupted Ling Yan's words, "Don't say it again, I won't wronged people!" If there is nothing else to do, everyone will disperse! With that, he got up and walked back.
Ling Yan hurriedly ran towards Lu Tiecheng, but when he passed the horns, the horns suddenly pulled out the sword on his waist and said to Ling Yan sharply: "What do you want!" ”
Ling Yan hurriedly said: "General Niu, I just want to find General Lu and intercede for General He Rong!" ”
"No way!" Niu Jiao pulled out his sword, pointed the tip of the sword directly at Ling Yan, and said sharply, "General Lu needs to rest now, no one is seen!" ”
Lu Gong and You Heng hurriedly stepped forward and came to Ling Yan's side. Lu Gong also drew his sword at once, blocking in front of Ling Yan, while You Heng said sharply to Niu Jiao: "What are you!" Dare to stop General Yan! ”
Niu Jiao was furious: "I am General Lu's personal guard!" If you want to be rude to General Lu, you have to pass my level first! ”
You Heng smiled coldly: "Hmph, what kind of personal guard, it's just a general, and you dare to say anything!" ”
Niu Horn said angrily to You Heng: "Do you want to test whether my sword is sharp or not? ”
Ling Yan hurriedly said to Youheng: "General You, don't be angry. After speaking, he looked at Niu Jiao again: "General Niu, I don't mean anything else, I just want to see General Lu and persuade him not to kill General He Rong." ”
"No," Niujiao said categorically, "General Lu is going to rest, and no one is missing!" ”
You Heng said angrily: "Hmph! General Lu himself didn't say that he didn't see anyone, so why did you stop him? ”
Niu Jiao said coldly: "I know General Lu's temperament, if I don't see it, I don't see it!" ”
"You ......" You Heng scolded again.
Ling Yan saw that You Heng was about to get angry again, so he hurriedly persuaded: "General You, forget it." ”
At this time, Sun Shao stepped forward and said to Ling Yan: "General Ling, since you can't see General Lu at this time, let's go back for the time being, and talk about it later." ”
You Heng said loudly: "How can you talk about it later? General He Rong is about to be beheaded, if he doesn't immediately persuade General Lu to withdraw his order, I'm afraid that General He Rong will die blindly! ”
Ling Yan thought for a while, but said to Youheng: "General You, what General Sun said is reasonable, even if we can see General Lu now, he won't listen to us, why don't we go back first." ”
"General Yan, but General He......" You Heng was about to say more, but when he saw Ling Yan winking at him, he stopped talking.
Ling Yan hugged his fist towards the horns: "General Niu, I offended just now, since I can't see General Lu, then I will retreat first." ”
Niu Jiao ignored Ling Yan, snorted and turned straight away.
"Uh...... General Yan, don't be too sad. He Rong is a general, but we don't know what his heart is, so General Lu made this decision for the sake of safety. Sun Shao persuaded Ling Yandao.
Ling Yan nodded: "Hmm...... General Sun is reasonable, this person has also wounded me and been captured by me, so he may not really surrender, and he will be beheaded. After speaking, he looked at Gong Lu, "General Lu, you are injured, go back to your room and rest." ”
