In the palace, the atmosphere was cold and silent, and the killing intent was spreading bit by bit.

"Xu Tu, Bai Ding, a certain family can't wait for you, why are you trapping me in injustice?" Zhuge Jun's eyes were as bright as cold blades, staring at the two military candidates.

"My lord, we are only waiting for the safety of adults, and we have no second thoughts!"

Xu Tu Baiding bowed his head and said sincerely.

"That's a good thing to say, but in my opinion, you have already betrayed a certain family, do you really think that just a few hundred people can persecute a certain family, come here!"

Zhuge Jun smiled coldly and raised his hand to drink.

Da Da Da !!!

The county soldiers outside heard the movement and began to pour in.

"Protect the county lord!"

Xu Tu Baiding glanced at each other, gritted his teeth, and was ruthless in his heart, and hundreds of soldiers and horses under his command held Zhuge Jun hostage in the center.

There are 3,000 county soldiers.

One thousand of them are on patrol at night, and five hundred are under the leadership of Jiang Yu, who have already left the county office.

Among the county officials, there were only 1,500 county soldiers.

And Xu Tu Baiding had 400 soldiers under his command.

They had already planned and transferred the soldiers into the courtyard early in the morning.

But there were more than 1,100 elite county soldiers guarding outside, and when they heard Zhuge Jun's shouting, all the county soldiers in the government moved all at once.

The 1,500 county soldiers have been divided into two formations, more than 400 soldiers led by Xu Tu and Bai Ding are holding Zhuge in the lobby, while the 1,100 county soldiers on the periphery surround the lobby, forming a three-layer confrontation inside and outside.

"Xu Tu, why are you holding the county lord hostage?"

The military Hou Lin Dong is a fierce general under Jiang Yu, he looked at the corpse of Xun Yu lying on the ground, and looked at Zhuge Jun who was held hostage by Xu Tu Baiding, stepped out, his tiger eyes were round, and he shouted: "Do you want to rebel!" ”

He guarded the perimeter, and when he felt the turmoil in the lobby, it was too late.

"Lin Dong, I don't want to hurt Lord County!"

Xu Tu took a deep breath, strode out, looked at Lin Dong, and shouted: "Chang'an City is now besieged, and there are no reinforcements in the imperial court, do you want me to wait for death in vain?" Now I just want to find a way to live with my brothers, as long as the county lord is willing to oppose Wei and open the city to welcome the Wu army, I am willing to forgive my sin with my life! ”

"Bastard, you still want to force the palace, it's really hateful, you'd better release the county lord now, otherwise when Captain Jiang returns, you will definitely not be spared!"

Lin Dong drank.

Zhuge Jun was alone among hundreds of soldiers, and he was not very afraid in his heart, he knew very well that Xu Tu would not hurt him, at most it was just a hijacking, and he still had this point.

He took a deep breath and looked at Xu Tu: "Xu Tu, let me ask you one thing, is the granary safe?" ”

"Safety!"

Xu Tu thought about it and said calmly.

Naturally, there is nothing wrong with the granary.

A total of six soldiers who surrendered to Cheng, two of them were responsible for holding Zhuge Jun hostage, and four of them dispatched Changle Palace, waiting for the opportunity to take the granary, as the capital of Toucheng.

"So, you deliberately killed Xun You?"

Zhuge Jun's eyes were cold: "The purpose is to force me Zhuge Jun to oppose Wei?" ”

Xun You is now dead in the county office, he has a hundred mouths and can't tell clearly, Zhang He and Cao Xiu will not trust him, and his heart is suddenly cold.

"My lord, Xu Tu is a little reckless, but he is also thinking about it!"

Bai Ding stood up, looked at the soldiers around him, and shouted: "My lord is dedicated to his own loyalty, but have you thought about the life and death of our soldiers, you look at these soldiers, who of them are willing to fight hard with the Wu army now, this battle is obviously hopeless, why do we want to die in vain, we are unwilling, why can't we surrender to Wu?" ”

"Bastard!"

When Zhuge Jun heard this, his face turned blue, and he shouted angrily: "We are Wei people, have you forgotten?" ”

"My lord, in the past ten years, we used to be Han people, then Liang people, and now we are Wei people or Wu people, does it matter?"

Xu Tu said quietly.

Chang'an City has been in turmoil since Dong Zhuo coerced his troops south, these soldiers are all young and strong in Chang'an, and they have experienced too many wars, and the Wei Dynasty has only managed Chang'an for a few years, and they have not been able to imprint their souls in their hearts at all.

When Zhuge Jun heard this, he was stunned for a moment, his eyes swept over, and he took in the faces of these soldiers, inside and outside.

They don't want to fight, they don't want to die!

At this moment, Zhuge Jun understood the mood of these soldiers.

His face suddenly hesitated.

That's right, he is loyal to Cao Wei, and he has to be worthy of Xun Yu's kindness, but he can't be selfish because of his own selfishness, let these county soldiers go to death, they are all sons and daughters who drag their families.

Facing Zhuge Jun's cold silence, the situation became a little deadlocked.

"What are you all doing?"

At this time, the figure of the county soldier's chief general, Chang'an Captain Jiang Yan suddenly appeared at the gate, he strode in, his tiger eyes were sharp, and he swept over: "Wu Jun hasn't entered yet, what's the matter, are you waiting for a fight by yourself, is it in the nest?" ”

He has always been strict in governing the army, and the rewards and punishments are clear, never favoritism, and there is no arrears of military ranks, so the majesty in the hearts of the soldiers is quite heavy, and one by one the county soldiers saw his figure appear, and immediately instinctively put away the weapons in their hands.

Zhuge Jun looked at Jiang Yu's figure, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart at this time.

Without Jiang Yan, he really couldn't suppress this group of arrogant soldiers.

"Captain!"

The soldiers swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, watched Jiang Yan walk in with cautious eyes, and hurriedly saluted.

"Put away all your weapons for me!"

After Jiang Yan walked in, he directly pulled out the long sword on his waist, pointed his sword in the air, and shouted: "We are all brothers in the same rice pot, is it possible that we still want to fight against life and death, who wants to fight, fight with me, stepped on my corpse, whatever you want!" ”

"The last general will not dare!"

Lin Dong hurriedly asked his soldiers to put away their weapons.

"Xu Tu, Bai Ding, do you want to kill the county lord?" Jiang Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw that Xu Tu Baiding was still holding Zhuge Jun hostage to the generals, and suddenly a touch of coldness burst out.

"The last general will never dare!"

The two of them were swept by this gaze, their hearts trembled, and they hurriedly asked all the soldiers to put away their weapons and bow their heads.

"Stand down!"

"Yes!"

All the soldiers immediately took a few steps back, but no one dared to send their troops and horses out without authorization.

Jiang Yan strode up and looked at Zhuge Jun with concern: "My lord, are you hurt?" ”

"I'm fine, it's just ......"

Zhuge Jun looked at Xun You's corpse on the ground, and said with a wry smile: "It's just that we're afraid that a big disaster is coming!" ”

"Dead, who killed it?"

"It's the last general!" Xu Tu was apprehensive for a moment, but still stood up.

"Awesome!"

Jiang Yan glanced at him, smiled coldly, and said no more.

He walked up and walked in front of Zhuge Jun, and suddenly knelt down on one knee, and then arched the sharp long sword in his hand respectfully with both hands: "My lord, my subordinates have a please!" ”

"Zhong Yi, what are you doing here?"

Zhuge Jun squinted slightly.

"My lord, now that Xun Yu is dead, it is difficult to recover the water, instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to take the lead, now we are all unavoidable, Zhang He and Cao Xiu not only will not believe you anymore, they will not let you go, I belong, I beg you, open the city to Wu!"

Jiang Yan said word by word.

"What if I don't want to?"

When Zhuge Jun heard this, there was a tremor in his heart, he took a step forward, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at Jiang Yu who was kneeling on the ground: "What should you do?" ”

"My subordinates will never dare to offend my lord, I can only watch my lord kill himself, then please use this sword to cut off my head, I am willing to go to Huangquan to explore the way for my lord!"

Jiang Yan said in a deep voice.

"You're pushing me too!"

Zhuge Jun trembled a little, gritted his teeth, his eyes were on fire, and he said coldly.

"The subordinates are loyal to the adults, but now the situation in Chang'an, we have no hope, I just hope that the adults can survive this battle, I hope that all the sons and daughters under my command will survive this battle, if the adults insist on sending them to death, I have nothing to say!"

Jiang Yan raised the sword in his hand high to show his determination: "Please think twice!" ”

"Please think twice!"

"Please think twice!"

The surrounding county soldiers suddenly knelt down on one knee and asked one by one.

Zhuge Jun faced this momentum, his breath was a little suffocated, and he took a few steps back before he stood firm, his face was gloomy and uncertain, his fists were clenched very closely, and between the dilemma, he suddenly had a glimmer of aura.

He suddenly looked up to the sky and shouted: "Zhuge Kongming, give it out!" ”

"Third brother, we haven't seen each other for many years, are we okay?"

Zhuge Liang was dressed in a Confucian robe, his demeanor was extraordinary, and he appeared at the door leisurely.

"Zhuge Kongming, you are really my good brother, if you shoot me with a clear sword, I will never say anything, but use such a trick to force me to be loyal and righteous, how can you bear it?"

Zhuge Jun's eyes were on fire, staring at this person deadly.

At this point, if he still doesn't know what's going on, he is not worthy of being a member of the Zhuge family.

Zhuge Liang racked his brains in order to force him back.

The first step is to use rumors to divide the trust between him and Zhang He.

The second step is to surrender his subordinates, kill Xun You, and cut him off.

The third step is to persuade Jiang Yu to raise troops to force him to surrender.

One plan after another, interlocking and seamless, it did not cost a single soldier to force him to have no way out.

"Third brother, I calculated you because of our masters!"

Zhuge Liang said lightly: "But now the choice is still in your hands, you can also choose loyalty, and then let them die one by one, kill themselves and leave a name in history!" ”

"You ......"

When Zhuge Jun heard this, his eyes immediately turned red, but his eyes looked at the faces kneeling on the ground, with hope, but he couldn't speak.

He is not afraid of death.

But all the people here are not afraid of death?

"Zhuge Kongming, you won!"

Zhuge Jun's heart struggled for a long, long time, and in the end, there was only this dejected sentence.

Tens of millions of people are unwilling and helpless.

He has never been able to let these county soldiers accompany him to kill himself.

So...... He fell! (To be continued.) )
