Chapter 136: The Truth
When Zhao Gu and Li Danran walked into Yeluhong's courtyard, the panic in his heart was infinitely magnified. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
There is no other reason, as a man who is determined to recapture Shuozhou City, he naturally has some understanding of Zhao Gu, the supreme governor of Shuozhou City, since the moment he saw Zhao Gu, when he thought of his situation of being surrounded by people, where could Yeluhong not guess Zhao Gu's identity.
The moment he saw Zhao Gu, Yeluhong couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration in his heart.
He asked himself that the plan to set the fire had been considered very carefully, but he didn't want to be seen through by Zhao Gu.
"Are you Zhao Gu?" Yeluhong looked at Zhao Gu and asked.
Zhao Gu nodded, and Yeluhong said as if talking to himself: "Huang San betrayed me? ”
"Yes."
Yeluhong smiled bitterly: "I knew that the guy under his hand was deliberately released by you, right, he didn't know your plan in advance?" ”
"Yes, until now he still doesn't know much, I just asked him to pretend to escape from the city, and after being caught by your people, he confessed to the garrison general's mansion to hide grain, and he didn't know anything else." Zhao Gu said.
"I know that's the case, that guy is also Han, you Han people are the most afraid of death, if he knows that your ultimate goal is me, and he will definitely show his feet if he plays in front of me." Yeluhong said with a frustrated face.
"It seems that you know the Han people very well." Zhao Gu said.
Suddenly, as if his face had regained life, Yeluhon stood up from his chair.
"One more thing, can you tell me? So I'm blind to death. ”
Zhao Gu and Li glanced at each other indifferently, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
"You want to ask, why did your subordinates dare to take such a big risk before the fire was fired, but they had already determined that there was food in it?" Zhao Gu said with a smile.
"Yes."
Zhao Gu nodded at Li Danran, and Li Danran then said: "In fact, your subordinates are really careful, they broke several cloth bags containing grain in a row, and those bags did contain grain, as for the other bags...... but it is not food. ”
"Fish-eyed bastard!" Yeluhong sighed heavily, and then glared at Li Si fiercely, Li Si immediately broke out in white sweat and quickly lowered his head.
In fact, at that time, Li Si and his subordinates did break many cloth bags to check whether they contained grain, and probably broke more than ten bags, but found that they were full of grain, so they were relieved.
But in those dozen houses, only the dozen or so cloth bags contained grain, and the others were mostly thatch, masonry, etc.
In other words, there was not a single grain of grain in the other pockets except for the dozen or so pockets they had checked.
Even Li Danran couldn't understand this, he just did what Zhao Gu ordered, but he couldn't figure it out, why did Li Si and the others just walk into the room with food? How could it be that the pocket with food just happened to be opened?
When this plan was formulated at that time, Li Danran also raised concerns, but Zhao Gu just smiled and said nothing.
After understanding the cause and effect, Yeluhong's head quickly shrugged down, looking like he was at your disposal.
Zhao Gu asked the soldiers to tie him up, and at the same time, Yeluhong's subordinates were kidnapped, and as for the traitors scattered in Shuozhou City, they had already been targeted, and they were soon caught.
Back in the small courtyard, Zhao Gu asked Yeluhong to be locked up, and instead of interrogating him immediately, he was left to dry up overnight, and only the next morning did he have people bring him up.
After a night in prison, Yeluhon had become a non-human being, his hair was knotted, his beard was unkempt, and his body exuded a foul smell.
His spirit also became very sluggish, and like a patient who had been sick for several years, his eyes were dull.
Zhao Gu wanted this effect, since he captured Yeluhong, he didn't eat another grain or drink a sip of water, and Zhao Gu specially ordered to find a dirty, smelly and sunless place to lock him up, in order to torture this Liao nobleman.
Judging from Yeluhong's appearance, Zhao Gu's strategy was very successful, and he had been successfully made languishing by Zhao Gu, and at this time, it was when he was the weakest and most defenseless.
Looking at Yeluhong, Zhao Gu said: "Yeluhong, you asked me a lot of questions yesterday, isn't it time for you to answer me a few questions today?" ”
Yeluhong slowly raised his head, looked at Zhao Gu and said, "You don't want to learn any news about the Liao State from me, I will not betray my country." ”
Zhao Gu smiled: "Yeluhong, it's not that I look down on you, just because you are a small viscount, and there are only people in the fief who are in a big place, presumably life in the territory of the Liao State is not particularly easy, how many secrets of the Liao Kingdom can you know?" Do you think I'm going to ask you these things? ”
Yeluhong's face turned red, as Zhao Gu said, although he is a royal bloodline, but he has been separated from the current emperor of Liao for several generations, and his blood relationship is thin, so although everyone has given him enough face on the surface, the real power has never been given to him, and even the fief is far away from the Liao country, which shows that he is not favored by the emperor and ministers of Liao.
"And what do you want to know?" Yeluhun was puzzled.
Zhao Gu showed a kind smile: "I'm a person, I don't like military affairs, but I'm very interested in some interesting anecdotes, I heard that your Empress Dowager Xiao and Han Derang have a good relationship, and they almost sleep in the same bed, I don't know if this matter is true or false?" You are a nobleman of the Liao Kingdom, you should have heard some of these things, right? ”
"How did you know this!" Jeluhon screamed.
As soon as the words came out, he immediately regretted it, didn't his question mean that he had admitted what Zhao Gu said.
Looking at Zhao Gu again, the smile on his face had disappeared without a trace, and he turned to a murderous face.
"This person is no longer useful, pull it out and behead it to show the public. In addition, many people are still worried that there is not enough food and grass in Shuozhou City, so we can explain everything to them. ”
Li nodded indifferently, and then asked people to press Yeluhong out.
After a while, the people of Shuozhou City were gathered by Li Danran, and in front of everyone, Li Danran asked Yeluhong's head to be cut off and hung on a conspicuous platform.
Subsequently, Li said indifferently: "Ladies and gentlemen, this person is the Viscount of Liao, a member of the royal family, named Yeluhong, someone said that there was no food in Shuozhou City, which caused a lot of panic, and this was all this person's strategy. ”
"Last night, he sent someone to secretly infiltrate the garrison general's mansion, wanting to burn the grain stock in Shuozhou City, but he was caught by our Zhao Senjun design."
"I am now on the order of Zhao to join the army, behead him to show the public, and I will be strict with you, not only is there no shortage of food in Shuozhou City, but also there is enough food and grass, and the Great Song Dynasty will continue to send food in the future, so don't worry."
