Chapter 66: Ambush and Disappearance

It seems that this son has grown up first, and there is no more recklessness before, and the old man is really happy.

But at this time, the sound of the gong of the third watch has already sounded, indicating that it is already the third watch day at this time.

Liu Renzhen was going to have his son Liu Chongji and his deputy general Sun Yu come over so that he could understand the situation in the city.

Before he could call the soldiers guarding the gate, the captain who was guarding the city gate outside walked in, and he was very happy to see that Liu Renzhen was already sober.

"Dashuai, you're awake, it's great. The brothers all said that the handsome man must be fine, and sure enough, God has eyes. ”

This lieutenant is only a very small officer, but Liu Renzhen clearly remembers his name, which is also an important reason why Liu Renzhen can convince everyone.

"Sun Ren, you don't guard the city gate well, what are you doing here? Where do you dispose of military law? ”

Liu Renzhen's eyes widened, and an aura of majesty instantly enveloped the little officer named Sun Ren.

Frightened, he was so cold that he immediately fell to his knees:

"Dashuai, I'm not leaving my post without permission, I have something very important to report to you."

Sun Ren, who was trembling, looked at Liu Renzhen, he knew that this marshal was extremely strict in governing the army and showed no mercy.

Liu Renzhen's face improved a little when he heard him say this, but his stern tone did not change much:

"The city gate is an important place, even if it is a very urgent matter, you should not strictly guard your post, and you should go and receive the punishment yourself after the incident."

Liu Renzhen, who was lying on the bed, stood up from the bed with the support of his wife:

"You get up and talk back, tell me what kind of big thing it is, if you can't say why, the old man will still punish you heavily."

Sun Ren's face improved a little when he heard this, and he also took it from the ground:

"It's such a big marshal, just now when the third watch, the major general took your talisman and asked the young general to open the city gate, the young general remembered that you said that the city gate can only be opened when you hold the talisman, so the young general came to ask the marshal, did you let the major general open the city gate?"

"And the young general saw that there seemed to be a large number of Zhou troops hiding outside the city......" Sun Ren glanced at Liu Renzhen and continued.

When Liu Renzhen heard this, he was stunned:

"Bing Fu, then I put it in the study, and I didn't give it to him, what is he going to do to open the city gate, does he want to surrender? Bring me this rebel. ”

The angry Liu Renzhen couldn't help coughing a few times, and Mrs. Xue hurriedly used her hand to smooth him out, and he eased up.

After a while, Liu Chongji walked in, accompanied by several soldiers, saying that he was accompanying him, but he was actually looking at him.

As soon as Liu Chongji came in, he saw that his father was awake and standing in front of him.

So he took two quick steps, and his voice was full of surprise:

"Father, are you awake? That's great. As he spoke, he stepped forward to support his father. Who knows that his dad doesn't buy his own account.

On the contrary, he had a serious face:

"Why do you say you have my talisman, and why do you want to open the city gate during the third watch?"

Liu Renzhen has been looking at his favorite youngest son, and he doesn't want to hear the answer he needs.

He remembered that when Shouzhou City was in the most danger, he persuaded him

"Dad, instead of us doing this trapping beast fight, we might as well surrender to Da Zhou, so that we can save our net worth and lives."

At that time, he scolded his son fiercely, his Liu family has been a general for several generations, loyal and courageous, how can he surrender like this.

But now his son actually stole his own talisman and wanted to open the city gate privately, this is not what it is to surrender the city.

Sure enough, Liu Chong's words made Liu Renzhen falter, and it was really as he guessed.

"Dad, we are already surrounded by the Zhou army, and there are no reinforcements, and you are also sick, I want to find a way to survive for the people of the city gate."

Hearing his son admit it himself, Liu Ren slammed the table angrily;

"You rebel really want to surrender to the Zhou army, my Liu family is favored by the emperor, how can you be a rebel from generation to generation?"

Saying that, Liu Renzhen couldn't help coughing, and Mrs. Xue was so frightened that she immediately went to help him smooth his breath, and Liu Renzhen just calmed his breath:

"Put this rebel in prison for me, drag him out at noon tomorrow and behead him, and show military law."

This order has been issued, everyone is stunned, this is to kill their own son, since ancient times, the tiger poison does not eat children, how could this Liu Dashuai kill his own son?

"If you don't bring this rebel to me, you won't be able to disobey if you want to." Under Liu Renzhen's protective gaze, the guards had no choice but to take him down.

"Plop"

As soon as Mrs. Xue heard that the master was going to kill her young son, she immediately knelt down:

"Master, he is our only son now, and several of his brothers have unfortunately died early, if you kill him again, our Liu family will be doomed."

Mrs. Xue couldn't cry like this, she gave birth to four children in her life, the first three children unfortunately died young, and now there is only one child like Liu Chongji, she can't help but be nervous.

Liu Renzhen looked resolute, but there seemed to be a trace of pain on his face, but others didn't notice it.

"Madame, why are you doing this? Jian'er violated the law of the country this time, how do you let the old man let him go, even if the old man wants to let him go, the national law of our dynasty will not allow him. ”

Mrs. Xue is also from a famous family, and she also knows that the national law cannot be abolished, and she knows what kind of person her husband is, and she is no longer alone.

By the time everyone knew about it, no one dared to persuade Liu Renzhen, everyone knew what kind of person Liu Renzhen was.

The prison army made Zhou Tinggou and Liu Renzhen make friends, and his personal relationship with Liu Renzhen was also good, so he ran to the middle gate and cried to rescue Liu Chongji.

But Liu Renzhen ignored this, in fact, Liu Renzhen is also very sad now that he is going to behead his son with his own hands, can he not be in pain?

In desperation, Zhou Tinggou sent someone to ask Mrs. Xue for help, hoping that Mrs. Xue could beg Liu Renzhen again

But this time, Mrs. Xue refused: "It's not that I don't love Chongji, but military law can't be favoritism, and honor can't be lost." If he is forgiven, then the Liu family will become an unfaithful family, and his father and I will have the faces to meet the soldiers! ”

At noon the next day, Liu Chongji was escorted to the execution ground and beheaded, and at the same time the whole city was told to let people know the fate of the surrender of the collaborators.

"What, Liu Renzhen killed his son?" Zhao Xu heard the report from the people below and stood up suddenly.

"Yes, my lord, we didn't wait for Liu Chongji's signal to open the door last night, so we didn't dare to act rashly, so we had to let everyone withdraw first. Today, I heard that Liu Chongji knew that his son wanted to surrender, and our Great Zhou arrested his son and beheaded him. ”

Liu Hongqing, who was in charge of inquiring about intelligence, said honestly.

"Tiger poison doesn't eat children, I didn't expect this Liu Renzhen to kill his son alive, such a person can't deal with it. Ordered the army to continue the siege, they could not hold out for a few months. ”

Liu Hongqing went down according to Zhao Xu's instructions, and Zhao Xu sat there alone and didn't know what he was thinking.

In Shouzhou City, Liu Renzhen was already unconscious at this time, and since he saw his son beheaded, he was also sad and angry.

After all, it was his own son, he was killed by his own order, and his blood was connected, how could he not be sad. ‘

So Liu Renzhen, who had just woken up for less than a day, vomited out a mouthful of blood again and fell unconscious.

According to the doctor, this time it was a rush to attack the heart, and it was difficult to wake up this time, and even if he woke up, it would not last long.

I don't know why the news of Liu Renzhen's serious illness came out, and the city fell into a panic, and the Shouzhou group of dragons was leaderless.

At this time, Adjutant General Sun Yu immediately summoned all the officers to discuss countermeasures, and his so-called consultative countermeasures were nothing more than surrender.

According to Sun Yu, even if we are obscure, if we surrender to the Great Zhou, Emperor Chai Rong will follow the story of the daughter buying bones and reuse us.

Everyone is also preparing to surrender the city and seek a good future for themselves.

The accident of buying horse bones is a story told to him by Guo Kui, a strategist of King Yan Zhao: it is about a monarch who likes Maxima, so he asks his subordinates to write a lot of money to buy Maxima.

But when the man came back with the gold and bought a pair of horse bones, the king was furious. The man under his command explained.

Since the monarch is willing to buy even the bones of Maxima with a lot of money, let alone Maxima? If others heard about it, Maxima would naturally come by then.

Sure enough, someone came to Maxima later, which was used as a metaphor for the desire for talents.

After figuring out this, everyone agreed to go out of the city and surrender, and now Liu Renzhen is unconscious, and Sun Yu has the final say.

Just when Zhao Xu was preparing how to further capture Shouzhou, Sun Yu opened the city and surrendered, and this time the Zhou army quickly entered the city.

Zhao Xu immediately sent someone to report to Chai Rong, and at the same time told Chai Rong some of Liu Renzhen's deeds.

"What an important minister, Liu Renzhen deserves to be a famous veteran, the Qinghuai Army is a loyal and righteous army, and Liu Renzhen is a festival envoy to show recognition."

Chai Rong immediately ordered to canonize Liu Renzhen, but it didn't take long for Liu Renzhen to die of illness, and Chai Rong posthumously named him the king of Pengpengcheng County.

It has been more than half a month since he occupied Shouzhou, and Zhao Xu also had a new appointment, and Chai Rong asked him to help Zhao Kuangyin capture the Purple Mountain.

Since the follow-up reinforcements of the Great Zhou had not yet arrived, Zhao Xu only set off with a few escorts, and even Liu Hongqing and Dong Xuanye were left in Shouzhou.

Zhao Xu was on the Huai River by boat and several guards at this time, preparing to take Yangzhou first, and then go straight to the Purple Mountain.

Just as they were passing through a field of reeds, suddenly there were many soldiers around, and their costumes were those of the Tang Army.

Before Zhao Xu and the others could react, the Tang army fired ten thousand arrows, Zhao Xu was hit by several arrows, and one was planted in the river, and none of the people on the boat were spared.
