Wang Xu continued to persuade: "I appreciate your talent, if you are willing to surrender to me, I will definitely reuse you!" ”

Li Zhi still refused directly, because he also had his own difficulties, not just because it was difficult for Wang Xu to hit a stone with an egg, but

Wang Xu did not lose heart, raised his hand to let Zhang Meng Jia Hui retreat outside the cave, and he himself sat aside and talked with Li Zhichang, he had an intuition, Li Zhi must have something in his heart, he always firmly believed that there is no general in the world who cannot be persuaded to surrender, this is the same as doing business, not that the business cannot be negotiated, but that the price is not enough.

"General Li, what do you think of Zhou Yi?"

Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "The lord of Guxi County, with 100,000 mercenaries, is much stronger than some thieves. ”

Wang Xu knew who Li Zhi was scolding, but he was not angry, and chuckled: "I'm afraid General Li is insincere, right?" ”

After a pause, Wang Xu continued: "Zhou Yi, born as a son of man to kill his father, is it unfilial, raising troops to rebel is disloyal, such disloyal and unfilial people still have the face to live in the world? ”

Li Zhi's back was cold, what Wang Xu said was reasonable, but he didn't care about any of this, in his heart, fighting is always the most important thing, and as a general, he should obey orders unconditionally.

After thinking for a moment, Li Zhi asked, "Isn't the general also rebelling against the imperial court now?" ”

Wang Xu shook his head: "This rebellion is different from rebellion, Zhou Yi killed his father and rebelled for his own power, I led all the soldiers against him in order to avenge the prince, at least I still have a righteous word!" ”

"What a word."

In this way, Li Zhi knew a little in his heart, but when Wang Xu asked whether he surrendered, he still refused.

Wang Xu didn't give up, and the two talked for a long time in the Tibetan soldier cave until it was dark.

Outside the cave, Zhang Meng became more and more upset the more he waited, looked at Jia Hui who was sitting on the ground, and admired: "Mr. Jia, your patience is really good, you have been waiting for most of the day, and you are still not impatient, Zhang Meng is ashamed." ”

"You really need to change your temperament, as the leader of an army, this is a big taboo." Jia Hui said unhurriedly.

Zhang Meng smiled: "I'm not a general, I just kill the enemy." ”

At this time, Wang Xu walked out of the cave, with a smile on his face, as if there was some happy event.

When Jia Hui saw it, he immediately got up and said, "Li Zhi has surrendered?" ”

Wang Xu nodded, but then shook his head again, this move made the two even more confused, whether they had descended or not.

Wang Xu didn't tell them, just smiled slightly, and walked towards the city.

Seeing Wang Xu walking away, Zhang Meng looked at Jia Hui and said, "Sir, what do you mean by the lord, did Li Zhi descend?" ”

Jia Hui thought for a while and said: "If it had fallen, then Li Zhi should have been released a long time ago, and now he is still tied there, which means that it has not yet fallen, but looking at the smile on the lord's face, I guess he must have a way to persuade Li Zhi to surrender, I guess, within a few days, Li Zhi will fall!" ”

Zhang Meng felt that what Jia Hui said was quite reasonable, and nodded vigorously

It's the third watch of the night, the Yuncheng Mansion.

In the backyard, Wang Xu stood in front of twenty soldiers in night clothes, these soldiers were all selected by him in the military camp, they were the most elite, their positions in the army were either captains or ten, if it was about martial arts, they were definitely not weak.

Wang Xu stood in front of everyone and said in a low voice: "You are selected by me from more than 20,000 soldiers, you are the elite of the elite, you should be proud, I am going to give you a task now, if you complete it, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold per person when you come back, and you will be promoted to lieutenant colonel." ”

"I just don't know if you have the guts."

Everyone looked at each other and was happy, a hundred taels of gold! Captain's job! For an ordinary soldier, this temptation is not insignificant, and no matter what the dangerous task, it is worth the fight.

Everyone looked resolute, hugged their fists on the ground and said: "My lord, please command, I will not give up until I die." ”

Wang Xu glanced at everyone and continued, "The task I gave you is to immediately sneak into the royal city secretly and bring Li Zhi's family to Cloud City. Reaching out and taking out a simple map and handing it to the soldier, Wang Xu said, "This is the address on Li Zhi's mansion." ”

Everyone nodded yes, although this task is a bit dangerous, but for the sake of that rich reward, they have to fight, besides, they don't have any choice, because this is a task arranged by Wang Xu personally.

"In this mission, only success is allowed, not failure, and all actions must be carried out in secret, not in the open."

"No."

He patiently continued to advise for a while, and then let everyone set off overnight.

Seeing everyone leave with his own eyes, Wang Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and now he finally had the opportunity to surrender Li Zhi.

The main purpose of Li Zhi's refusal to surrender, until now he has figured out that it is not that he dislikes himself as a thief, it is all official words, the real reason is that his family is in the royal city, if he really surrenders himself, then the Li family will all be implicated.

Now it's okay, twenty elite soldiers secretly infiltrated the royal city, as long as Li Zhi's family is brought to Cloud City, then everything will be easy, and Li Zhi will definitely be captured when the time comes.

Thinking that it would not be long before he could add a fierce general with both wisdom and bravery, Wang Xu couldn't stop laughing, especially since this fierce general was still Zhou Yi's subordinate, so that Zhou Yi's strength was greatly reduced, and his own strength soared, one prosperity and one decline, and it would be easier to defeat Zhou Yi in the future

Thirty miles away, in the Qin Shuang military camp.

At this time, all the commanders and captains gathered together, and Qin Shuang was also anxious like ants on a hot pot, walking back and forth in the big tent.

"This Wang Xu is too despicable, he even used General Li as a hostage to force us to withdraw from the army."

"General, let's just go in, then when the city is broken, we can take it in half a day."

"If you don't exterminate the thief army, the prince will definitely blame."

Qin Shuangyi slapped the desk and said loudly: "You know the quarrel every day, the general has already said, first, you can't hurt the general, second, you must quickly eradicate the thief army, if there is such a way, you might as well talk about it, as for the rest, just shut up for me." ”

Everyone sighed in unison, if there was such a method, it would have been used a long time ago, so why wait until now.

"Then General Qin, what is your good plan?"

Qin Shuang shook his head, indicating that he was helpless.

The discussion continued for a while, but in the end it was over, and this kind of meeting had to be held several times a day, but it was a great pity that none of them were useful; Cloud City is small, but it can't be easily captured.
