Of course, Chen Fuliang's travel will no longer be like when he went to Liaodong to join the army, he will go on the road alone with a broken knife and a broken knife, and he will only bring 300 armor soldiers to protect him when he goes out and in, and he still has not forgotten the benevolence of Emperor Yang of Sui, and this time he is going to surrender to the enemy city in person, no matter how low-key Chen Fuliang is, he has to bring 3,000 elite soldiers to show off, right? And because of the advice of his cousin Li Jing, Chen Fuliang also brought the newspaper ** that had been expanded to eight schools with him, nearly 5,000 people with distinct clothes and armor, and Chen Fuliang, who was riding a white horse and wearing a white robe and a fork, walked in the middle.

Seeing such a coquettish Sui army team out of the camp to Taiyuan Dongcheng, the Taiyuan defenders were naturally nervous to the extreme, ringing the alarm bell early, the Taiyuan army officers and soldiers on duty in the east city hurriedly went to the city to prepare for the war, and the reserves in the city were immediately assembled to wait for orders, and then Taiyuan Xicheng also immediately strengthened the vigilance, but because he did not receive the Dongcheng for help, Li Jiancheng, who set the general headquarters in the west city, did not rush to cross the city to command the battle, but continued to sit in the town and wait for news.

However, Li Jiancheng soon couldn't sit still, and it didn't take long for Yin Kaishan, who was in charge of guarding the eastern city, to send someone to report to Li Jiancheng, saying that the Sui army was personally led by Chen Fuliang, and Chen Fuliang also sent people to fly white flags to the east gate of Taiyuan Dongcheng, asking Li Jiancheng to answer in Dongcheng. Hearing this report, the Taiyuan military members Wenwu and Li Shentong and other members of the Li clan who rushed to Shuaitang one after another all held their breath and looked at Li Jiancheng with some nervousness, but Li Jiancheng only thought about it for less than three seconds, and then ordered: "Let Yin Kaishan tell Chen Yingliang, just say that I have nothing to say to him, please go back, if he wants to attack the city, I will accompany him at any time." ”

The envoy of Dongcheng sang a promise with some hesitation, and was about to turn around and go back to resume his life, but Pei Lian, the chief foreign minister of the Taiyuan army over there, quickly stopped him, and then turned to Li Jiancheng and said: "Governor Zuo, the courtesy is still exchanged, the enemy commander asks to answer with you, I think there must be an important matter to negotiate with you, it is reasonable, you had better meet you." ”

"What else could he do?" Li Jiancheng said quietly: "It's just a good word to surrender, anyway, I definitely want to refuse, it's better not to waste words with him." ”

Pei Lin really didn't expect Li Jiancheng to refuse so simply, and he was a little speechless in surprise, but fortunately, another important confidant of Li Jiancheng, Wang Qi, also stood up and persuaded him: "Zuo Dudu, let's see each other, not to mention that you and Chen Yingliang used to be close friends, it's not bad to take the opportunity to test Chen Yingliang's siege tactics, and see if he will really be like what we are most worried about, and decide to irrigate the city with two waters, if he is resolute with the attitude of irrigating the city with water, we can also take precautions early, right?" ”

After hesitating for a long time to play with the brush in his hand, Li Jiancheng nodded very reluctantly and agreed to go to Dongcheng to meet Chen Fuliang. Hearing this decision, many Taiyuan military civilians and many members of the Li clan breathed a sigh of relief, and a glimmer of hope was rekindled in their hearts, and they all said in their hearts: "I hope that Chen Thief can say that Li Jiancheng is moved." ”

When he went out with a group of civil and military officials with a very reluctant expression, Li Jiancheng happened to meet the belated brothers Li Er and Li Yuanji, although Li Jiancheng deliberately ignored these two precious brothers, but Li Yuanji was very uninteresting, and asked with a split face: "Brother, I heard that Chen Yingliang personally led the army to Dongcheng, what is he going to do?" ”

"He wanted to see me and talk to me face to face." Li Jiancheng replied expressionlessly: "Originally, I didn't want to see it, but Uncle Pei and Mr. Shujie persuaded me to see each other, so I had to go for a trip." ”

Looking at Pei Lian, Wang Qi and the others, Li Yuanji blinked his triangular eyes, suddenly attached to Li Jiancheng's ear, and whispered: "Brother, Thief Chen must have come to surrender to you, the revenge of killing your father is not shared, you must not waver, let alone forget our father's murder hatred?" ”

Li Jiancheng was a little surprised, and glanced at the incompetent fourth brother who thought he was likely to be shaken, Li Jiancheng nodded, and said Of course I won't move on. Li Yuanji saw that Li Jiancheng agreed with his persuasion, and secretly said in his heart: "Yes, you must not waver, the more resolutely you refuse to surrender, the greater the credit I will give to His Royal Highness the King of Tang in Taiyuan City." ”

When Li Yuanji deliberately persuaded Li Jiancheng to insist on refusing to surrender, Li Er was also rolling his eyes and pondering, and quietly lent Li Yuanji his own personal soldiers and instructed: "Go back to my house immediately, bring my four-stone carved beam bow, and send it to Dongcheng City and hand it to me." Fast. ”

When Jiancheng and the others came to Taiyuan Dongcheng very quickly, the East Gate City was already under full martial law, and all the soldiers were in place with bows and crossbows and arrows, and Yin Kaishan immediately greeted him, pointing to the Sui army team outside the city and whispering to report Chen Fuliang's location, and condescendingly looking at Chen Fuliang's banner of the Tang King with teeth and claws, Li Jiancheng's mood was complicated, and he said in a low voice after a long time: "Call him over." ”

Yin Kaishan promised, then walked to the side of the arrow battlement, and loudly told the Sui army envoy under the city that Li Jiancheng had arrived, and the Sui army envoy also immediately flew back to report to Chen Fuliang, and then, surrounded by the army led by Wei Chi Jingde and Guo Feng, Chen Ci and other generals, Chen Fuliang also trotted towards the east gate. And seeing that the familiar figure of his former friend was getting closer and closer to him, Li Jiancheng, who had been deliberately keeping his face expressionless, also had his heart beating faster and faster, and said secretly: "Brother Ying Liangxian, we finally meet again, this time, can I continue to be commensurate with your brother as before?" ”

Speaking of loss in his heart, Li Jiancheng couldn't help but think of his past with Chen Fuliang in his mind, remembering the past when he and Chen Fuliang met in the restaurant, remembering that he and Chen Fuliang knew that they had mutual grudges and still fell in love with each other, remembering his surprise and envy and joy when he heard that Chen Fuliang had created all kinds of impossible miracles, and also remembering Chen Fuliang's honest treatment and kind advice to him, and even more remembering the ...... of entrusting each other on the battlefield of Tongguan after he and Chen Fuliang became enemies. Unconsciously, Li Jiancheng's eyes were already full of hot tears.

"Bow and arrow ready."

Yin Kaishan's whispered command next to him pulled Li Jiancheng back to reality from the past, almost subconsciously, Li Jiancheng immediately shouted: "Put down the bow and arrow!" Everyone, put down your bows and arrows at once! Without my order, those who release arrows without authorization will be cut immediately! ”

Hearing Li Jiancheng's roar, the archers of the Taiyuan Army, who were quietly preparing bows and arrows, looked at each other, and Yin Kaishan, who was guarding Dongcheng, was helpless, so he could only wave his hand again to let all the soldiers put down their bows and arrows. But the matter is not over, Li Jiancheng looked around the scene, and happened to see Li Erzheng sneakily hiding a bow behind him, Li Jiancheng didn't think much about it, strode forward and snatched the bow from Li Er's second-hand, held the bow with both hands, slammed his knees upward, and directly cut Li Er's love bow into two, and then threw it down the city wall with a flick of his hand, Li Er knew that Li Jiancheng was already angry and didn't dare to say anything, so he could only watch his beloved strong bow be scrapped, and scolded in his heart: "Hypocrite!" ”

At this time, Chen Fuliang also went to the moat of Taiyuan City under the protection of Yu Chi Jingde and others, and saw that a broken bow was dropped on the city, and Yu Chi Jingde and others, who were holding a long shield in their hands and ready for Chen Fuliang at any time, were all nervous, and reminded Chen Fuliang in a low voice to beware of hidden arrows, but Chen Fuliang didn't care, and said loudly to the city with a smile: "Brother Jiancheng, if I guessed correctly, this broken bow just now must have been thrown down the city wall by you, right?" Brother is kind, little brother thank you! ”

Li Jiancheng's figure finally appeared in the city, and he said coldly and loudly: "His Royal Highness the Tang King has said it, who is Li Jiancheng, how dare he be commensurate with His Royal Highness's brothers?" I also hope that His Royal Highness will be cautious in his words and not be condescending. ”

"Brother, why are you talking like that, have you forgotten our friendship?" Asked in surprise, Chen Fuliang looked at Li Jiancheng carefully, and what made Chen Fuliang quite sad was that he hadn't seen him for less than three years, and Li Jiancheng seemed to be ten years old, his temples seemed to have gorgeous hair, and his face was obviously much thinner.

"That's already in the past, now I'm the Zuodu Governor of the Anti-Sui Righteous Army, you are His Royal Highness the Tang King of the Great Sui, or my father-killing enemy, friend or foe!" Answering loudly, Li Jiancheng was also looking at Chen Fuliang carefully, and found that Chen Fuliang was obviously stronger than before, and there was a lot more grace and luxury in his bearing, compared with the thin and humble Chen Fuliang when they first met, it was almost like a different person. And after remembering the past, Li Jiancheng couldn't help but sigh again in his heart.

Out of respect for his friend, Chen Fuliang did not play a scoundrel with a hippie smile at every turn like he did with other enemies, but changed his title as requested, and said loudly: "Okay, since my brother insists, then I will call you Li Dudu." Li Dudu, what is my intention, I think you must know very well in your heart, but I still have to ask you, things have come to this point, why are you still obsessed? Why don't you think about it for the people of Taiyuan, your subordinates and yourself? Don't you know that I not only treat those who surrender wantonly, but also treat them with kindness and merit? ”

"I know that Your Highness is here to surrender." Li Jiancheng sneered loudly, and said: "But I'm sorry, Your Highness, you will only run for nothing this time, although I, Li Jiancheng, am not a hero, but I am definitely not a person who surrenders on the knee!" Swear to live and die with Taiyuan, this is the only answer I give you! ”

"Li Dudu, why are you doing this?" Chen Fuliang persuaded again: "You have only the lonely city of Taiyuan left, your ally Liu Wuzhou has been broken by me, and another ally Dou Jiande has also been blocked by Yan Wang Luo Yi, and you can no longer come to the Taiyuan battlefield to help you, your defeat is decided, why bother to die?" Laying down your arms and surrendering Kaesong is your best choice. ”

"Your Highness said that my defeat is decided, I'm afraid it may not be?" Li Jiancheng sneered and said: "There are still 30,000 elite soldiers in Taiyuan City, and the grain and grass can be used for five years, which is enough to hold on for a long time!" And Your Highness, your interior, your rear, there are hidden dangers everywhere, how long do you dare to stay outside this Taiyuan City? ”

After that, Li Jiancheng also persuaded in turn: "Your Highness, you are a smart person, you must know what the consequences will be if you attack the city for a long time, right?" So I advise you, Your Highness, you'd better withdraw from the army as soon as possible, and don't let the innocent soldiers under your command die in vain for your own selfish interests! ”

Hearing this, Wei Chi Jingde and Guo Feng and other generals around Chen Fuliang all sneered, Chen Fuliang couldn't help but smile, and then Chen Fuliang looked at the Taiyuan army around Li Jiancheng again, and saw that they were all silent, so he said to Li Jiancheng again: "Li Dudu, don't say anything about your big words, look at your left and right for yourself, what do they look like now?" Who has as much faith as you do? Not even a person who dares to feign such confidence, right? They are all completely desperate for the war, and if you continue to cling to it, maybe someone will come to me with your head in exchange for glory and wealth! ”

Chen Fuliang's words were naturally looking for his own scolding, and the city suddenly resounded with a reprimand and scolding against Chen Fuliang, but unfortunately most of these scoldings were weak and powerless, only Yin Kaishan, Feng Li and Xie Shufang and a few of Li Jiancheng's henchmen scolded a little more firmly, and Li Jiancheng also took the opportunity to say loudly: "His Royal Highness King Tang, don't come here again to sow discord!" Rest assured, the Pontus Governor will never give you the opportunity to steal the city from within the city as he did last time in Daxing! If you want to be in this Taiyuan City, even if you come to attack the city with real swords and guns, I want to see how many people you have to die to take my Taiyuan City! ”

Li Jiancheng had already spoken to this point, and Chen Fuliang couldn't continue to hide it, so he said loudly: "Zuo Dudu, don't use Taiyuan Jiancheng to intimidate me, Taiyuan is a city with high moats and deep moats, and this king has indeed never liked to fight tough battles, but you should know that the biggest weakness of this Taiyuan City is there!" Do you really want to force me to dig up the second water of Jinfen and release the water to irrigate the city?! ”

"It's finally time to come." Li Jiancheng sighed secretly in his heart first, and then said, "So what? I will flood you in the Bird Mouse Valley, and you will flood me with water and rip each other! What's more, when Zhibozi led the city to flood the city for three years, didn't he fail to take Taiyuan City in the end? ”

"His Royal Highness the King of Tang, release water to irrigate the city, are you ruthless?" Li Jiancheng's side finally had Yin Kaishan interject and asked loudly: "Our army flooded you in the Bird Mouse Valley, but it was only aimed at your army, and it did not hurt the innocent, you have always prided yourself on being loyal and loving the people, don't you think about the hundreds of thousands of innocent people in Taiyuan City?" ”

Chen Fuliang was most afraid of answering this question, and he was speechless for a moment, but by Chen Fuliang's side, there was a bad seed named Yuan Tiangang who was waiting for this question, and he immediately burst out laughing, "Hahahaha!" Li Jiancheng, Taiyuan thief army, your fox tail is finally exposed, right? I, Yuan Tiangang, really didn't guess wrong, you are afraid that our army will release water to irrigate the city, so you will use the innocent people in Taiyuan City who are coerced by you as a shield, so that our kind-hearted His Royal Highness the Tang King will not dare to break the embankment and release the water! ”

Including Chen Fuliang, they all looked back at Yuan Tiangang in surprise, but Yuan Tiangang, who had been holding this bad for more than four months, was full of red light, pointing at Li Jiancheng and others and yelling: "However, you are wrong! You want to use innocent people as shields, that's a big mistake! To tell you the truth, it was none other than the first person who proposed to His Royal Highness the Tang King to divert water to irrigate the city! It is my Yuan Tiangang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry of the Great Sui and Tang Dynasties! ”

"And I, Yuan Tiangang, since I dare to offer this plan to His Royal Highness King Tang, I dare to be responsible for the hundreds of thousands of innocent people in Taiyuan City!" Tiangang roared out the strongest voice in his life, "Because of the flood released by Yuan Tiangang, I can not only break through the east and west cities of Taiyuan, but also do not have to harm the innocent people in the city!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked, Li Jiancheng and Yin Kaishan and others were shocked, Li Er, Li Yuanji and Li Shentong and others were so nervous that they rushed to the side of the arrow stack to watch, Wei Chi Jingde and Guo Feng and other Sui army generals opened their mouths, Chen Fuliang was also so surprised that he couldn't believe his ears at all, and exclaimed to Yuan Tiangang: "Yuan Shangshu, are you joking?" Can you use the flood to break the city, but you don't have to hurt the innocent people in the city?! ”

"In front of His Highness, how dare your subordinates say half a lie?" Yuan Tiangang's face was shining proudly, and he said with a wild smile: "In fact, this method is also very simple, first release the flood and the Taiyuan city wall, and then keep the water volume to prevent the flood from entering the city, then after two months and January, we will dig the dams to release water, then the rammed earth city wall soaked by the flood will collapse by itself!" Our army no longer needs to use any siege weapons, they can directly enter the city and seize the city! ”

"Really?!" Chen Fuliang asked in ecstasy, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?!" ”

"Of course it's true, if you soak first and then dry up, the earthen wall will inevitably collapse!" Yuan Tiangang replied proudly, and said with a smile: "Your Highness forgives me, the reason why Your Excellency deliberately concealed it before is for two reasons, one is to give Your Highness a surprise to you, and the second is to give the Taiyuan thief army a surprise, so that they no longer dare to expect our army to be afraid that the people will suffer innocently, and they will not dare to release water to irrigate the city!" ”

Chen Fuliang laughed loudly, and loudly admitted that Yuan Tiangang had indeed surprised and rejoiced at the surprise he had given him, but Li Jiancheng and Zhu Wenwu of the Taiyuan Army on the city wall were all pale—because they had all seen Yuan Dashen's ability in this regard. Then, Yuan Tiangang pointed to Li Jiancheng and the others in the city and shouted: "Li Jiancheng, if you are smart, you should open the city and surrender quickly, otherwise, as soon as the flood of our army comes, I will see how you are still dying and struggling!" ”

Chen Fuliang, who had no scruples in his heart, also turned his head to look at Li Jiancheng, and said loudly: "Brother Jiancheng, do you hear it?" Little brother, I really don't have to worry about hurting the innocent this time, if you continue to be obsessed, little brother, I will build a dam to store water when I go back, and break your Taiyuan city! ”

His face was pale, but Li Jiancheng still replied loudly word by word: "Although let the horse come, the foolish brother will accompany him to the end!" ”

"That's what I knew you would." Chen Fuliang sighed, and then said loudly: "Okay, since you must resist stubbornly, brother, I will no longer be reluctant, and I will not be reluctant, or the same sentence, after the city is broken, brother, you don't have to worry about the safety of your family, I will only treat my sister-in-law and them well." Let's go! ”

After that, Chen Fuliang pulled out his horse and rushed back to discuss with Yuan Tiangang how to attack Taiyuan by water, but after walking two steps, Chen Fuliang remembered one more thing, and hurriedly turned back to look at the city, and sure enough, he found his rival Li Er, who was a little pale next to the arrow battlement, and couldn't help but smile coldly, and said secretly: "This time, I see how you still run!" ”

Li Er, who also had good eyesight in both eyes, also saw the hideous smile on Chen Fuliang's face, and his face became even paler, Li Er couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "Why is he smiling so hideously at me?" Is he warning me that this is already my last chance? ”

At this time, Li Yuanji next to him also attached to Li Er's ear, and said in a low voice with a little trembling: "Second brother, His Royal Highness King Tang sneered at me, as if to warn me, if I don't do it again, his previous promise will not be fulfilled, you say, are we taking advantage of the time to hurry up and ......, that?" ”

Li Shuliang, Li Daozong, Li Fengci and other members of the Li clan also looked at each other with pale faces, and after exchanging a few glances with each other, the members of the Li family focused their eyes on Li Shentong's face again, Li Shentong understood the meaning of a group of relatives, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
