Chapter 45 Co-optation

"Bang dang", the soldiers at the head of the city couldn't help but kneel down to Wang Bingzhong, and shouted in a heart-splitting voice: "General! Open the gates! Please! I don't want to be a traitor anymore! ”

The surrounding soldiers were infected, and there was a chain reaction, they dropped their weapons one after another, knelt down towards Wang Bingzhong and shouted, "Open the city gate, we don't want to be traitors anymore!" ”

Wang Bingzhong saw the soldiers kneeling on the ground around him, his body trembled, he held back his tears, and said hoarsely to the soldiers around him, "Go!" Pass my orders! Open the gates! ”

"General! Thisβ€”" said the soldier with a slight hesitation. "Say no more! Execute the order!" Wang Bingzhong closed his eyes and said

Seeing Wang Bingzhong's resolute attitude, the soldiers didn't dare to refute, and obediently went down to pass on the order! With a cry of "Open the gates!" The gate of Penglai Pavilion slowly opened, and the surrounding soldiers saw this and immediately cheered! Even Liu Fan at the bottom couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the matter was finally over.

At this moment, Wang Bingzhong, who was at the head of the city, glanced around, forgot to glance at the sea in the distance, and suddenly pulled out his long sword and shouted, "Geng Zhongming misunderstood me!" With that, the sword slashed towards his neck.

The soldiers who were walking towards Wang Bingzhong in the distance were suddenly startled and shouted, "Don't! Checkmate! Rushing towards Wang Bingzhong, trying to snatch the long sword in his hand, but it was still a step too late, the long sword had already slashed through Wang Bingzhong's neck and brought out a puddle of blood, Wang Bingzhong's body also slowly softened to the ground, and the soldiers stepped forward to support Wang Bingzhong's body that was about to fall to the ground, and couldn't help crying, "General!" Why! Why are you so stupid?"

Wang Bingzhong was already having difficulty breathing at this time, and the blood ran down the wound on his neck. Seeing the captain of the personal soldiers who was supporting him, he said with difficulty, "Shine... Take care of me... My family! Before the last word was finished, his body had lost his strength and was so weak that it was on the side. The captain of the pro-soldier looked at Wang Bingzhong, who had lost his breath, and was already crying, "I will!" I'll definitely take care of the adults' families! After that, he couldn't help but hug Wang Bingzhong's body and cry loudly.

The soldiers who were walking towards the outside of the city, heard the sound and couldn't help but look towards the city, and saw the family holding Wang Bingzhong's corpse and crying bitterly, couldn't help but stop, slowly bowed to Wang Bingzhong, and then stood up and walked towards Liu Fan's camp without looking back.

Liu Fan, who was observing the city, witnessed this with his own eyes, and couldn't help but sigh, this Wang Bingzhong is affectionate and righteous, but unfortunately he used it in the wrong place! Then he said to Li Xiaohu beside him: "Send someone to bury him!" Find his family and tell them that they will be supported by our Breakers! Li Xiaohu, who was beside him, nodded with emotion and said, "Yes!" My lord! My subordinates will do it! ”

Half an hour later, except for Wang Bingzhong and a few of his own soldiers, the other Liaodong troops had already walked out of Penglai Pavilion one after another, and came to Liu Fan's camp to surrender to the Broken Army! Seeing this, Liu Fan said to Li Xiaohu, "I'll leave the rest to you!" I'm going to get my life back to Lord Zhu! With that, he led people and strode towards Zhu Dadian.

"My lord! Humble and fortunate not to be dishonored! More than 1,000 rebels have been surrendered to Penglai Pavilion, and our army has completely occupied Dengzhou! Liu Fan knelt on his knees and returned to his life loudly!

"Haha... Hurry up, I know Jimin can do it! Unexpectedly, in a few words, Jimin let thousands of thieves come out and surrender by themselves! He is worthy of being a person valued by His Majesty! Sure enough, it's a great talent! Zhu Dadian's face was full of red light, and he strode forward to help Liu Fan happily praise.

"My lord, Miao! I would like to thank you for the fulfillment of this matter! Liu Fan couldn't help but say politely

"This is also the ability of Jimin! Jimin has performed so well, I will definitely tell Your Majesty the truth! At that time, Jimin will definitely be reused by His Majesty! Zhu Dadian couldn't help but say enviously

"Huh! My lord! The lowly has asked His Majesty for orders to manage the salt works! It's just a salt envoy from Dengzhou! When the time comes, please take care of the adults! Liu Fan said embarrassedly

"Huh? Wouldn't it be a waste of great prospect to help the people! Pity! Pity! What a pity! Zhu Dadian said three times in a row, and then said, "Jimin doesn't have to be polite, when the time comes, the old man will naturally order the subordinates to take care of you!" ”

"Thank you, sir!" Liu Fan clenched his fists and said

"Hmmm! Jimin doesn't have to be polite! Jimin has just taken over thousands of rebels, and he must be in a hurry to deal with it, even if this is the case, the official will not keep you! Zhu Dadian's attitude was slightly cold, but he still said with a smile. Seeing that Liu Fan was ordered to expel the guests, it was not easy for Liu Fan to stay any longer, so he hugged his fists and left. Looking at Liu Fan's departing back, Zhu Dadian suppressed his smile, his face was cloudy and he didn't know what he was thinking!

Back to the camp, at this time, the Broken Army had returned to the garrison outside Dengzhou City, and the newly surrendered Liaodong Army and the Broken Army were camped in two places respectively, and it looked clear from a distance. It's just that the camp of the Broken Army is outside, faintly blocking the exit of the Liaodong Army. At this time, there were less than 600 people in the broken army under Liu Fan, and the wise man of the Liaodong Army who forcibly surrounded 1,000 people did not do it, Liu Fan couldn't help but nod when he saw this, it seems that Li Xiaohu is not too stupid, and he knows how to take precautions.

Stepping into the big tent of the Broken Army, Li Xiaohu immediately stepped forward to report, "Lord! It's done! These surrendered Liaodong troops have already settled down! They still have a lot of food in stock, Lord Zhu takes care of it, and other armies don't dare to rob them of what is left, but I have already sent someone to collect their weapons! Moreover, I sent a sentry into five teams to take turns to patrol to ensure that they can't make any waves! ”

Liu Fan sat on a chair and listened to Xiaohu's report while drinking tea: "Hmm! Well done! There is growth! It's not in vain that I usually teach! "I'll personally send them some pork for dinner, it's too late today and the Liaodong Army has just surrendered, so it's not appropriate to move lightly, let's talk about it early tomorrow morning, we don't want the black sheep!" When the time comes, give them an understanding!

At dinner, Liu Fan personally led people to the camp of the Liaodong Army, beat drums to gather the soldiers, and only after the people arrived, did he announce, "I came here today to tell you that I, Liu Fan, will do what I say, and I will definitely treat everyone equally and will not prejudice you!" will also fulfill his promise to take everyone to wash away the shame and be an upright person! Not much to say! It's time to eat! "Let's let people push a few carts of food. Lifting the white cloth, the smell of meat was overflowing, and the Liaodong Army saw that Bai Huahua's fat eyes were red, staring at the steaming pork, his eyes were reluctant to look away, and he kept swallowing saliva! If it weren't for Liu Fan and the straight pro-soldiers standing beside him, they would have pounced on him a long time ago!

Liu Fan looked at the Liaodong Army who was excited but did not dare to act, nodded imperceptibly, and then signaled to the pro-soldiers on the side that they could have dinner, and then the pro-soldiers shouted and everyone lined up to eat. After a while, there was a long queue in front of several large cars. Liu Fan saw that the matter was almost over, and he also picked up a bowl next to him, walked to the back of a line and stood in line to eat, and the soldiers around him saw that they were afraid that Liu Fan would have an accident, and immediately followed behind Liu Fan.

When the soldiers of the Liaodong Army saw that Liu Fan was also queuing up to eat, they all looked at him in surprise and showed doubts. After a while, it was Liu Fan's turn to line up, and the Huotou Jun who was in charge of the spoon saw that it was Liu Fan, and he didn't care, but just scooped a little more meat. Liu Fan took the rice bowl and walked to an open space and squatted to eat! While eating, he sandwiched the dishes he didn't like to eat into the familiar pro-soldier bowl next to him. The Liaodong Army, who was secretly looking at Liu Fan, couldn't help but ask towards the Huotou Army, "Do adults usually eat like this in the camp?" The Firehead replied nonchalantly, "Yes! Ever since the founding of the Broken Army, the adults have been like this almost every day in the camp, so what is there to be surprised about! The soldiers who heard it around looked at Liu Fan one after another, and when they saw him talking and laughing, it was obvious that this was not the first time that such a thing had been done, and suddenly their eyes at Liu Fan changed!
