Sun Dezhi and several lieutenants summed it up, preparing to attack Wangwu County at night and rescue Cheng Biting Jin, everyone quietly approached the city wall, but unexpectedly heard Cheng Biting Jin's broken gong-like voice shouting at the head of the city: "Sun Dezhi, you stupid donkey, go find Xu Shiji, this guy is not your opponent!" ”

Then Cheng Yanjin shouted again: "You go quickly, don't spoil Lao Tzu's plan!" ”

In the moonlight, it was faintly visible that Cheng Yanjin was stripped naked, hanging upside down on a wooden stake, and two big men next to him were holding daggers and gesturing on him.

"General, what should I do?" A soldier asked in a whisper.

Sun Dezhi bit his lip tightly, he saw that the other party was ready, so he had to wave his hand, "Let's go down first and find General Xu!" ”

Hundreds of Sui soldiers rushed away in the dark, and several defenders at the head of the city saw that the Sui soldiers were far away, so they untied Cheng Yanjin and carried his legs and arms to the city. ”

The hall was brightly lit, Wang Junkuo sat at the small table and drank the stuffy wine silently, cup after cup, obviously he was not in a good mood, and there was a silver medal next to the wine jug, which was Cheng Yanjin's military card, which read: 'General Zuo Xiaoweiya" This is a high-ranking official from the fourth grade' Wang Junkuo knew very well that Cheng Yanjin's talent and ability were not as good as himself, but he could get the position of a sub-general, and his future was still uncertain.

Wang Junkuo had considered going to join Li Yuan when he left the Wagang Army angrily, but when he thought of being so decisive when he rejected Li Yuan, he couldn't let go of this face, and at that time Yang Yuanqing had just started the Eastern Crusade, and the situation was unclear, so he didn't want to rush to defect, but fortunately, Song Jingang treated him well and treated him well.

But although Song Jingang is good to him, this person also has a lot of weaknesses, his biggest weakness is the army, his soldiers are all from Mayi and Yanmen County, which is doomed to him not being able to last long, but Song Jingang really surrendered to Dou Jiande.

Wang Junkuo is also not optimistic about Dou Jiande, although this person is powerful, but his bandit background has never been supported by the Shandong scholars, this is Dou Jiande's fatal weakness, and there is no strict system, from his Song King Kong as the king of Hanoi can be seen from the arbitrariness of the county, can the title of the county king be sealed casually?

Maybe Dou Jiande can win for a while, but there are no rules, no system, everything is done according to his will, can such a person achieve great things in the end? Wang Junkuo has also read books, he is very suspicious of such a person, if Song Jingang surrenders to Dou Jiande, he will inevitably pass, if Dou Jiande is defeated, he has to surrender again, he doesn't want to taste the taste of a slave with three surnames.

Song Jingang can no longer surrender Yang Yuanqing, but he Wang Junkuo has nothing to do with Yang Yuanqing, he can surrender completely, Wang Junkuo is a little tempted, but it is so simple to surrender, his heart is a little unwilling, he wants to surrender Yang Yuanqing himself, not surrender his generals.

At this time, a soldier stepped forward to report: "General Qiyu, the Sui army has retreated, and it seems that it is gone."

Wang Junkuo drank a glass of wine and asked, "How is Cheng Biting Jin?" ”

"He's fine, he's just scolding the general."

"What did he call me?" Wang Junkuo asked coldly.

Shi Ping hesitated for a moment and said, "He is scolding the general for not knowing the current affairs, and he will not have a chance to be a eunuch in the future." ”

"This bastard!"

Wang Junkuo scolded in a low voice, and then ordered, "Bring him up to me." ”

After a while, Cheng Yanjin was pushed into the lobby, he wore a pair of pants, but his upper body was still naked, as soon as he entered the lobby, he shouted: "Wang Er, you are too unrighteous, we had dinner in a pot back then, I don't want you to be lenient, at least give me a piece of clothing, it's so cold now." ”

Wang Junkuo glanced at him and sneered: "You still owe me twenty yuan, and that armor should be returned to me with interest." ”

"You green locust, that armor was taken off by me from Liu Wuzhou, it is a good nickel iron armor, at least worth 100 gold, damn it, Lao Tzu is too much of a loss."

Cheng Biting Jin is rude on the outside, but very cunning in his heart, he saw that his military card was on Wang Junkuo's table, and he guessed that Wang Junkuo was jealous of himself, but in this way, he had the opportunity to win over Wang Junkuo, in fact, when Cheng Biting Jin fell into the pit, when he heard Wang Junkuo's voice, he had an idea in his heart, and the credit for winning over a general was much greater than seizing a city, so he desperately drove Sun Dezhi away, if he hurt someone, it would be a little difficult to do.

Cheng Yanjin was very popular when he was in the Wagang Army, he drank with Wang Junke every once in a while, and he knew a little bit of what he thought in his heart, he knew that this person was actually extremely famous, and he was arrogant, he could only praise it, but not force it.

"Alright! Even if the armor pays off your debts, then for the sake of brotherhood in the past, won't you invite me to a glass of wine? ”

The soldiers on both sides were furious, and they were about to teach Cheng Yanjin a lesson, but Wang Junkuo stopped them, "Untie him and let him sit down." ”

The soldiers had to loosen the ties for Cheng Yanjin, Cheng Yanjin was secretly happy in his heart, took Wang Junkuo's green robe from the wall and put it on, sat down with a big grin, lifted the lid of the pot and poured a bowl of wine into the bowl, "I said, when did you become so delicate, you actually drank wine with a cup, and became the same as Yang Yuanqing." ”

Wang Junkuo's heart moved, so he asked him quietly: "Listening to your tone, it seems that you are very familiar with Yang Yuanqing?" ”

"Of course, in the fourth year of Renshou, I entered Beijing to participate in the martial arts, and I lived in an inn with him, he forgot to bring money at the time, it was my house money for him, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, and taught me to practice archery, at that time, there was also that single turtle head, Lao Tzu also fought with him, if Yang Yuanqing didn't pull it away in time, he almost died."

Cheng Yanjin said with great interest, and after three bowls of wine, he suddenly frowned, "I seem to have told you." ”

Wang Junkuo thought about it for a while, Cheng Biting Jin seemed to have said it to himself, but at that time he thought he was bragging, and at that time he was boasting about knowing Shan Xiongxin, but when he was called Lao Dan, now he has actually become a single turtle head, although Wang Junkuo knows that Cheng Biting Jin is flattering himself, but he is also comfortable in his heart, he hates Shan Xiongxin very much in his heart, and scolds Shan Xiongxin, which is exactly what he wants.

"I think you're exaggerating, are you really familiar with Yang Yuanqing?" Wang Junkuo asked a little suspiciously.

"Lying to you is a bastard!"

Cheng Biting Jin jumped up in a hurry, he reached out and took his silver medal, "See, Xiao Cavalry Wei Second General, Xiao Cavalry Guard's second person, the general is Xu Shiji, because he is the third leader of the Wagang Army, so he is reused, what am I talking about martial arts, I can't even walk you in five rounds, on riding and shooting, I don't even deserve to lift your shoes for you, on merit, I haven't made any achievements, do you know Ma Shao?" The flat head of the Fengzhou Army, he followed Yang Yuanqing when he was the captain, but now he is only Yang Sien's second general, just like me, why do you say that I can be an Asian general just because I have a good personal relationship with Yang Yuanqing? ”

Wang Junkuo nodded, he believed a little bit in Cheng Cheng's ability to bite gold, being a general is indeed a bit exalted to him, not to bite gold in the process is not bad, he can speak, and he is self-aware.

Cheng Biting Jin's small eyes narrowed, he saw that Wang Junkuo was a little tempted, so he went around in a circle and said: "I might as well divulge a secret to you, in fact, we are two armies going south, Luo Shixin led 10,000 cavalry to go Baicheng has entered Hanoi County, cutting off your retreat, I heard Xu Shiji say that Yang Yuanqing has taken a fancy to Song Jingang's army, and he wants to collect all of them to replenish his troops, so none of you can escape, all of them have to be taken prisoner, hey!" Lao Wang, why bother? ”

Wang Junkuo's heart was shocked, and his forehead was sweating, Yang Yuanqing had already taken Bai Cheng to cut off their back road, he believed that this was true, this kind of tactic Cheng Jin could not be selfish

Wang Junkuo bowed his head and was silent, he was extremely contradictory in his heart, Cheng Biting Jin saw that the soup cake was almost cooked, and there was still the last scoop of water, he persuaded again: "The emperor Lao'er has died in Jiangdu, Yang Yuanqing has established the acting king Yang Yu, in fact, we all know that Yang Yuanqing will ascend the throne as an emperor in the future, and if you want to win a lot of money, you have to bet early, I am a little hairy monkey is not worthy of accepting your surrender, to be honest, Xu Shiji is not worthy, you are originally from Hedong, if you are willing to surrender Yang Yuanqing, I Cheng Biting Jin will lead you to see him, and you can't get the general, There must be no problem with the general, but I want to tell you, don't think about the king of Hanoi, this is the real court, not the grass platform team like Dou Jiande, and only Yang Yuanqing can be crowned king, there is still hope for us to be a prince in the future, how about it, are you willing to go to Taiyuan with your younger brother, and go home with your ancestors! ”

Wang Junkuo was finally moved, he glanced at several pro-soldiers, and the pro-soldiers all nodded to him, expressing their approval of his surrender to Yang Yuanqing, Wang Junkuo resolutely made up his mind, "Okay!" I'll go with you to see Yang Yuanqing. ”

Cheng bit Jin Daxi, and hurriedly said: "If you want to be high-sealed, you have to show sincerity, it's not good to meet empty-handed." ”

"I know, I will hand over Jiyuan County to you."

Wang Junkuo finally agreed to surrender to Yang Yuanqing under the persuasion of Cheng Biting Jin's tongue like a lotus, and Cheng Biting Jin immediately ordered someone to find the Sui general Sun Dezhi and handed over Wangwu County to him, and he took Wang Junkuo to Jiyuan County, and the next afternoon, Cheng Biting Jin entered Xu Shiji's camp.

"Lao Xu, I'm back with a great achievement!" Cheng Yanjin shouted loudly before he reached the big tent.

Xu Shiji had just received information from Sun Dezhi, saying that Cheng Biting Jin was carelessly captured, and he was worried in his heart, but when he heard that Cheng Biting Jin was back, he was immediately surprised and delighted, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Aren't you captured? Why are you back, you're fine! Xu Shiji asked repeatedly.

Cheng Yanjin grinned, "How can something happen to me?" Sun Dezhi, that idiot, doesn't understand my strategy, I already knew that the other party was planning to arrest me, so I planned to let them go into the city, you see, I persuaded Wang Junkuo, he is willing to surrender to us, and Jiyuan County does not need you to fight. ”

Xu Shiji was overjoyed, he didn't want to expose Cheng Biting Jin's boasting, it didn't matter how he was caught, the important thing was to persuade Wang Junkuo to surrender, which was a great achievement.

He gave a thumbs up, "Good job, this great work is yours, I will definitely give you a credit." ”

Cheng Yanjin pulled Xu Shiji aside and whispered: "Wang Junkuo's condition is to surrender to the governor, I will take him to Taiyuan, you write a letter!" Talk about the importance of seizing Jiyuan County this time, and give Wang Junkuo a little face. ”

Xu Shiji nodded, "There is no problem with this, when did he say to surrender?" ”

Cheng Yanjin glanced back at Jiyuan County, and saw the city gate open from a distance, and a team of soldiers walked out with white flags, and said with a smile: "See, isn't this coming?" ”

Wang Junkuo is Wang Junke in the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and he is also a favorite character of Lao Gao.
