After laughing, Zhang Zhongjian said with some doubts, "King Chen, Fang Xuanzao has a low character and has always been uncertain. At the beginning, he was one of the leaders of Wagangzhai, but later he secretly voted for Li Mi behind Zhai Rang's back, and even Li Mi's killing of Zhai Rang was also planned by this person. Now that he suddenly shouted to surrender to my court, is there a fraud? We have to guard against it. ”

"Yes, it's a scourge to keep such villains. Your Royal Highness, just kill it with a knife and throw it into the river to feed the fish, and save that amount of guesswork. Lu Shishen patted his head and said. He has always looked down on this kind of villain at both ends of the snake and rat, and the Chen State died back then, all because there were too many disloyal ministers like the Chen State. Even his two elder brothers turned their backs on the Lord to seek glory, not only demoting Chen Guo, but also persuading their father to surrender.

As a result, my father hated this and killed himself. Since then, Lu Shishen has looked down on this kind of traitor, and even has an extreme hostility. At the beginning of the Liaodong expedition, how many Liao prisoners who surrendered died under his killing captives.

"Fang Xuanzao could betray Zhai Rang back then, and now he is willing to betray Li Mi, such a person will definitely betray His Highness when he has the opportunity in the future." Guo Xiaoke also has no good impression of this kind of literati who are afraid of death, and he is like a celebrity on weekdays. But once the critical moment comes, these people are weak and afraid of death.

Regarding the attitude of his subordinates, Chen Kefu only smiled slightly. "Chen Lei, let someone bring Fang Xuanzao up."

Sometimes, although I clearly despise the character of those villains, I still have to use it when I should use it. There are even times. These villains are still very useful, as long as they are used well, they can even be used by thousands of troops.

After a while, Fang Xuanzao was already taken into the cabin by two guards and thrown on the ground.

At this time, Fang Xuanzao had long since lost the style of the deputy military division, and he didn't even have the backbone of a literati. Just in the bilge. The interrogating sergeant did not remember his status as a scribe, and as soon as he entered the bilge, he was hit with thirty killing sticks, and he was beaten in the ass. Immediately afterward, he was not given the slightest respite. No one came to interrogate him or anything, and another shirtless burly man stepped forward with a whip, hung him there, and whipped him with the oil whip soaked in salt water.

Like a wild snake, the whip of oil was whipped on his body one after another, and his robe was torn to pieces. Among the rags and whips flying in the sky, he no longer had the same vigor as before, pointing out the country. He just felt like his soul was gone. The whip marks on his back were numb, itchy, spicy and painful. fainted several times, and was woken up by cold water several times.

Fighting with his last bit of strength, he shouted and begged for mercy over and over again, shouting and surrendering. But the strong man who wielded the whip turned a deaf ear, and did not stop until he had given a dozen more lashes, and had beaten thirty more lashes.

Fang Xuanzao, who woke up again, in addition to cursing these strong men over and over again in his heart, as well as Chen Kefu. also regretted it in his heart over and over again, and he regretted it almost regretting his intestines. Why was it that when I was in Kim Yong City, I was so enthusiastic that Dou Hongxian said it on the phone. can't be self-controlled, scrambling to come to the alliance with Dou Hongxian again, what to be a messenger. Fang Ze didn't arrive, but his life was going to be buried here.

Just when he thought he was going to be killed in this bilge, someone who looked like an officer came in. He endured the scorching pain all over his body, saying that he knew many military secrets of Wei and Yan and was willing to tell them all. finally got his attention and sent someone to report it.

was carried up by two guards and thrown in front of Chen Kefu, Fang Xuanzao sighed in his heart. He never imagined that he was half-dead at the beginning. The young man who was taken to Wagangzhai by the eldest lady of the Zhai family was actually Chen Pojun. Why didn't you find out at the time? He has always regarded himself as a scribe, and he looks down on reckless men like Zhai Rang the most. Later, Li Mi went to Wagang and sent his beautiful military advisor to talk to him a few times, and he turned to Li Mi's command. If he hadn't cared about the beauty beside Li Mi at that time, but had recognized Chen Kefu, a hero, he would have been in a high position in the Hebei Imperial Court today. …,

Chen Kefu smiled and helped Fang Xuanzao up, "Brother Fang, I have suffered." When you and I were in Wagang in the past, we used to drink together and call ourselves brothers, but we didn't want to meet like this today. Brother Fang, now you and I are our own masters, and the two countries are fighting, and there is nothing to do. I, Chen Kefu, respect my brother today as a man, and I am willing to fulfill your name of loyalty. Come, drink this bowl of wine, and my brother will personally send you on your way. ”

Seeing Chen Kefu really take over two large bowls of wine from the guards, Fang Xuanzao's face turned pale all of a sudden. He was not a loyal man, he was originally a local petty official in the Sui Dynasty, but because of discord with the chief official, he killed the chief official in anger and had no choice but to fall into the grass. But he has always thought highly of himself, and always feels that he has the talent of the world, but no one has the wisdom of people. He has killed his boss and betrayed his old boss Zhai Rang, and the so-called loyalty has nothing to do with him for a long time. What's more, in these troubled times, he never decided which one he needed to be loyal to.

Seeing Chen Kefu's smile, but it seemed to be a talisman of the underworld, Fang Xuanzao knelt on the ground, kneeled in front of him, hugged Chen Kefu's thigh with both hands, crying tears and snot, and his voice was miserable, "King Chen, the little one used to have eyes and didn't know Mount Tai, I didn't know that you were the real dragon emperor, and you were a small one." I also asked King Chen to let go of the little one this time, Zhai Rang really didn't kill me, it was Li Mi, and it was Li Mi's dog thief who designed to kill Zhai Dalong's head. This time, Li Mi was forced to come down to Hedong, and the little one had always wanted to take the opportunity to warn His Highness, but he had no chance. also asked King Chen to give the little one a chance, and the little one was willing to follow King Chen to the death. While crying, Fang Xuanzao kowtowed, "By the way, the little one still knows many confidential things about Li Mi, and the little one is willing to tell King Chen all of them, and take precautions as soon as possible." I also asked King Chen to spare this time, accept him as a pawn, and serve King Chen. ”

Seeing Fang Xuanzao's unbearable scene, the generals in the cabin all turned their heads in disdain.

Even Chen Kefu couldn't help but secretly despise it. Unexpectedly, the so-called scribes and masters who usually look down on others were not even concerned about the slightest face when they were critical, and in a panic, they said anything shameless. It is estimated that at this time, Chen Kefu will accept him as his godson and let him call him father, and he will immediately accept it.

If he hadn't been useful, Chen Kefu would have kicked him away earlier. Holding back the nausea, Chen Kefu forced a smile on his face, and took his hand up, "If Brother Fang is bent on death, although this king can only be fulfilled, he always regrets it in his heart." Now that Master Fang has finally communicated, he is willing to make some contributions to the common people of the world and the people of Dawn, of course, this matter is very good. Such as Li Mina and other rebellious ministers and thieves, everyone in the world will be punished. Eradicate such small snacks as soon as possible, and restore peace to the people of Henan as soon as possible. Brother Fang gave up his personal subtleties, and the righteousness of the whole world made Chen admire. ”

Although Fang Xuanzao's face was feverish when he heard this, he also understood that Chen Kefu probably wouldn't kill him, and his heart was a little calmer for a while. When I thought of my performance just now, I felt ashamed and angry. secretly felt that this was all done by Chen Kefu on purpose, just to humiliate him. At the moment, there was hatred in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be extremely cautious on his face.

A guard took the four treasures of the study and placed them on top of the old case. Chen Kefu glanced at Fang Xuanzao and smiled slightly.

Fang Xuanzao understood what Chen Kefu meant, so he had to step forward, pick up the pen, and write down some of the secrets of the Wei State that he knew. I wanted to write something fake casually, but it can be seen that Chen Kefu and his subordinate generals all had a smile on their faces, but they seemed to be staring at themselves with a faint threat in their eyes, and they didn't dare to have this idea at the moment. Honestly picked out some things that were not too important and wrote a few large pieces of paper, and at the end, he quietly glanced at Chen Kefu and saw that he was still staring at himself.

After a little hesitation, he gritted his teeth, and had to write two more pieces of paper in ink, but this time he wrote a lot of confidential things. After writing, he endured the pain in his back and stood aside nervously, but when he saw Chen Kefu not saying a word, his face became more and more gloomy. …,

At that moment, my heart trembled, I lowered my head in fright, picked up the pen and paper and wrote again.

This is done five times three times, until the last bit of memory in my mind is copied out before I stop. Standing aside with trembling legs, he didn't see Chen Ke repeat his words for a long time, although he was frightened in his heart, he really had nothing to write about.

After a long time, I saw Chen Kefu laughing, stepped forward and slapped him on the shoulder, grinning in pain, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

"Okay, Brother Fang is a great achievement, and when he returns to the court with this king, he will play the Ming court and reward Brother Fang." After speaking, he ignored him anymore, and took the content he wrote to watch it with his subordinate generals.

After reading it, Chen Kefu was in a good mood and said loudly, "Chen Lei, immediately take the sand table in the southern section of the Yellow River, and this king has to study this newly obtained information." The sand table was quickly put up, Chen Kefu seemed to be overjoyed, and he didn't ask someone to bring Fang Xuanzao down, but studied the deployment of troops and horses with his subordinate generals on the spot.

"Li Mi, this kid is really ruthless, not only joined forces with the Li family, but also wanted to use Li Shimin's hand to poison both this king and Wang Shichong in Mengjin. Moreover, there is a backhand, 100,000 soldiers and horses are deployed in two ways in the area of Tiger Prison Pass and Jindi Pass, it seems that they have made up their minds to put us to death, and they will never let this king and these 50,000 soldiers return to Hebei. Chen Kefu held several small flags in his hands, representing Li Mi and his own soldiers and horses, and inserted them in several places on the south bank of the Yellow River in the sand table.

Zhang Zhongjian stared at the sand table, frowned and said, "Tiger Prison Pass and Jindi Pass are both on the south bank of the Yellow River, and they are close to the Yellow River. If Li Mi really set up an ambush in these two areas in advance, then as long as he sinks ships on the two rivers and blocks the rivers, then it will be difficult for us to pass, and then the ambush troops on his shore will be exhausted, and we will abandon the boat and fight on land, and we will be outnumbered, but we are afraid that it will be difficult to resist. ”
