Liu Tu bribed the servant of the Shen family and changed the letter to ask him to hand it over to Taishou Lu Jian.

The letter imitated Shen Shan's handwriting, and the content was to ask his family to secretly contact Xu Kuan, the guard of the city gate, and he persuaded Ning Ze outside the city to join forces with Xu Kuan to seize Hexi County.

Xu Kuan has a good relationship with Shen Shan, everyone knows it. The two grew up together since childhood, just like their own brothers.

The servants of the Shen family came to the Taishou Mansion and said that they were informants.

Lu Jian met with the Shen family's servant and asked him curiously, "I heard that you want to tell the truth?"

"Yes, Fuzun!" replied the servant of the Shen family, "My master has fornicated with foreign enemies and wants to surrender the city. For fear of being implicated, I took the initiative to tell the truth!"

"Is there a certificate?" There are rumors about Shen Shan everywhere these days, but in fact, Lu Jian already has doubts in his heart.

The servant of the Shen family hurriedly replied: "There is a letter from my master, please take a look!"

"Bring it on!"

"Yes!" the servant respectfully presented the forged letter.

Lu Jian opened the letter and saw that it was really Shen Shan's handwriting, and then looked at the content, and was furious.

The letter was written by Liu Tu to find someone to imitate Shen Shan's handwriting, and it is difficult to distinguish the real from the fake at first glance.

The rumors that have been appearing these days have laid the foundation in Lu Jian's heart, and where would he think so much when he saw this letter.

"Okay, you're Shen Shan! I treat you well, and I have the heart to promote. But you are fornicating with foreign enemies and want to unite with Xu Kuan to harm me?" Lu Jian took the case and immediately ordered, "Someone! Send someone to arrest Xu Kuan immediately!"

"Fu Zun!" The staff next to him hurriedly said, "Although there is a letter here, Xu Kuan still doesn't know about it, so he can't be convicted!"

"So what do you say?"

"Just send someone to replace Xu Kuan, so that he has no power in his hands, and it is naturally harmless!"

Lu Jian thought about it, and there was some truth.

Although Shen Shan invited Xu Kuanli to join the outside world, with the relationship between the two, Xu Kuan would definitely agree. But now that the secret letter has been intercepted, the Shen family has no way to contact Xu Kuan, so naturally there is no such thing as internal and external cooperation.

So he convened his subordinates to discuss the matter and discuss who to replace Xu Kuan.

Liu Tu immediately suggested that the captain Gao Ming be promoted to be the city gatekeeper.

Lu Jian agreed, and immediately asked Gao Ming to replace Xu Kuan.

It turned out that Liu Tu was secretly plotting, because Shen Shan refused to help him, making him hold a grudge, so he bribed the servants of the Shen family to frame him. First, if Shen Shan is forced to a dead end, he will not be able to return to the city, and naturally he will not be able to reveal the secret of his identity as the general of the gold mine garrison to Lu Jian; Shen Shan refused to help, he himself could plan step by step, and sooner or later he would win the status of the general of the gold mine garrison.

Once successful, managing the gold mine will allow him to gain great wealth, which he can then use to further buy off the officials and improve his status!

How did Lu Jian know that Liu Tu still dared to fight inwardly and seek personal gain.

The most depressed is Xu Kuan, who was inexplicably deprived of the position of city gate general, and instead assigned to Shui Cao Pengshi, who is currently useless and has no military power.

To put it bluntly, Shui Cao Pengshi is a water conservancy officer, and he is an idle job in Hexi County.

Why was he suddenly transferred, from the city gate to the history of Shui Cao Peng?

There is a world of difference between having military power and not having military power!

Questioning others in doubt, he finally got the information, saying that Shen Shan wanted to sacrifice the city to the enemy, but was discovered by Fuzun. In order to prevent Shen Shan from colluding with himself inside and outside, he ordered someone to replace the city gate general and seize the military power.

How could Shen Shan defect to the enemy? The whole family was in the city, and they were loyal to Liang Guo, and as a friend, he knew it very well. There's definitely something wrong with that!

Knowing that the Shen family was trapped, he wanted to go over to visit.

When I arrived at Shen's house, I discussed with the soldiers who were gathered outside and was allowed to enter the courtyard.

After entering, he found the Shen family and asked if Shen Shan had offended anyone recently.

How did the Shen family know about Liu Tu? They all shook their heads, and said with a blank face that they didn't know.

As he was talking, there was a sudden commotion outside.

Xu Kuan and the Shen family walked to the gate to check the situation, and saw Liu Tu leading troops into the mansion, with a fierce momentum.

"Liu Tu, why did you lead your troops to break into the Shen Mansion privately?" Xu Kuan stepped forward and asked.

Liu Tu sneered, waved his hand and ordered: "Xu Kuan conspired with the Shen family to cooperate with the enemy army and betray Daliang!

The Shen family was extremely flustered and shouted that they were wronged.

Xu Kuan was not stupid, and immediately guessed that this matter had nothing to do with Liu Tu.

The other party had no fear, and it was clear that he would not let go of himself and the Shen family, so he immediately drew his sword and said to the Shen family: "The traitor wants to harm us, when you get out of the encirclement, go to the mansion to distinguish right from wrong!"

Protecting the Shen family at the moment, rushed out all the way.

Liu Tu shouted: "The traitor fights to the death, and he can be killed!"

Outside the defenders fired a volley of bows and arrows.

Xu Kuanshi was alone, not to mention protecting the Shen family, but he was killed outside the gate and directly hit the hornet's nest at range.

The Shen family was also shot to death by Liu Tu's men. Reading nests

After killing Xu Kuan and the Shen family, Liu Tu ordered someone to report to Lu Jian, saying that Xu Kuan was resentful after being dismissed, so he went to the Shen family to plot a rebellion, but was bumped into by him. I wanted to be captured, but Xu Kuan and the old and young of the Shen family found out that they had failed, and they wanted to fight for their lives. In desperation, he shot him.

Lu Jian was even more furious when he learned about this, and ordered someone to parade the corpses of Xu Kuan and the old and young of the Shen family on the street, and at the same time reward Liu Tu!

The matter spread outside the city and was soon known by Shen Shan. Hearing this, he fainted on the spot.

After waking up, he was overwhelmed with grief, and said in the direction of Hexi County: "Shen is loyal and dedicated to the country. How could the villain make trouble, but he harmed my family and framed my best friend. Accusing me of defecting to the enemy and betraying the country, and I can't go back to my home. If you don't take revenge, you won't be a man!"

asked to see Ning Ze at the moment, pretended to surrender, delayed time in the name of negotiations, and informed him in 1510.

Ning Ze said with a smile: "Gu has long known that he negotiated with Your Excellency on the surface, but in fact, he secretly planned to attack the city. ”

Shen Shan was shocked: "The king's clever calculation, the foreign minister admires! The foreign minister is dedicated to the country, how can he be framed by the villain." Now that his family is ruined, his best friend has been killed, and he has no choice but to turn to the king and ask the king to be the master of the ministers!"

"Chief Shen abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and he was very happy. Ning Ze replied, "When Gu captures the city, he will avenge Chief Shen!"

"How is the king going to attack the city?" asked Shen Shan.

"Lone has ordered people to build ladders and rams, and they can be completed in a few days. When the time comes, break through the city gate and take Hexi County!"

Shen Shan immediately said to Ning Ze: "It takes a lot of time to build weapons, and the foreign ministers can make the king quickly take the city!"

"Oh, what is Chief Shen's plan?"

"Your Majesty!" replied Shen Shan, "There is a secret path leading to the local river in the corner of Xicheng in Hexi County, which was originally used for drainage, but now the water level is lowered, allowing several people to enter and exit at the same time. In the middle of the night, the king only needs to send 500 soldiers to sneak into the city through this road, and then he can seize the gate of the west city, and then the army will enter the city and succeed in a battle!"

"Really?"

"The foreign minister doesn't dare to say anything!" Shen Shan gritted his teeth and said, "I just want to let the foreign minister cut the villain Liu Tu and avenge his best friends and family after breaking through the city!"

"Lone promises you!" With this kind of good thing, you can take Hexi County faster, of course Ning Ze will not refuse.

As for whether Shen Shan deceived himself or not, he could clearly see his attributes with the system, and since the camp had changed, there was nothing to worry about.

That night, Ning Ze allocated 500 floating troops and asked Shen Shan to lead the way to Xicheng.

Sure enough, a drainage channel was found in a remote corner of the West City.

Generally, urban drainage channels will not be built in this way, and this peculiar construction method in Hexi County is quite rare. Probably the local water conservancy officials tried to save trouble.

In fact, Shen Shan also proposed to Lu Jian on this matter, asking to demolish this drainage channel, block the exit, and build a new one.

Lu Jian didn't care, thinking that no one could enter the city through the drainage channel, and it was completely unfounded. In addition, it is quite expensive to dismantle this drainage channel and build a new one, and the money of the official treasury is relatively tight, so there is no need to spend it here.

Who would have thought that now it would become a secret passage for Shen Shan to enter the city with the Futu Army.

Ning Ze and Hua Erniang led the army to hide near Xicheng, waiting for news.

Shen Shan took 500 Futu troops, walked in through a few people through the secret passage, and it took a lot of time to finally enter the city.

The defenders of Hexi County could never have imagined that the Ning Ze army would enter the city in this way.

When Shen Shan led the Futu army to the Xicheng City Gate, the defenders did not react at all, and they could not resist the invulnerable Futu army.

The 500 Futu army easily conquered the gate of the West City, quickly opened it, and lit the torch and shook it according to the agreed signal.

Ning Ze saw the signal and immediately ordered Hua Erniang to follow him and lead the army to directly rush to the city gate.

Shen Shan, as an internal response, let Ning Ze's army enter the city through the west gate.

Before the other three city gate defenders could react, they divided their forces and attacked.

The defenders of Hexi County were taken by surprise, and the new city gate general Gao Ming was killed in the attack, and his life was whimpered.

Ning Ze's army quickly occupied the four city gates to block the possibility of the enemy's retreat, and then Shen Shan led the way and quickly attacked Taishou Mansion.

When Lu Jian learned that the Chinese army had invaded the city, he put on armor in a panic and summoned generals to meet the attack.

As a result, before he went out, he was besieged by Ning Zejun's Taishou Mansion.

The two armies engaged in a battle and fell into a fight.

Since the enemy had already entered the city, the morale of the defenders of Hexi County fell to the bottom, and they were quite frightened. Ning Zejun took advantage of the effect of the First Emperor's tactics to multiply his attributes, forming a stark contrast.

Compared with the two, where is the opponent of the defenders of Hexi County?

After some fighting, Ning Zejun had an overwhelming advantage.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, Liu Tu wanted to survive, and took advantage of Lu Jian's inattention to behead him from behind, holding his head and shouting surrender.

When the other officials next to him saw this, they laid down their weapons one after another. The main generals are all dead, the defenders are not opponents, and there are very few who really want to sacrifice their lives for the country.

The officials surrendered, and the defenders naturally had no intention of fighting again, and they all laid down their arms.

Liu Tu took the lead, carried Lu Jian's head, and brought the officials in the city to Ning Ze to beg for surrender.

Seeing Liu Tu, Shen Shan's eyes were red behind him, and he hurriedly said to Ning Ze: "Great King! This person is for his own selfish desires, and he will do everything! Today, he falsely accused the lower officials, betrayed Lu Jian, and will betray the king tomorrow!"

Liu Tu looked up and saw Shen Shan, and was immediately shocked: "You...... Why are you here?"

Ning Ze waved his hand, and the soldiers under his command quickly stepped forward to restrain Liu Tu. He turned to Shen Shan and patted him on the shoulder: "Such a villain will not be left alone." I promised you before, do it yourself!"

"Thank you, King!" The enemy was very red when they met, and Shen Shan drew his sword and walked towards Liu Tu.
