Knowing that Pei Gong Xuanwu Feng had set up an ambush and was caught by Ning Zebu's ambush soldiers, Zheng Fu hurriedly convened civil and military officials to discuss how to deal with it.

Strategist Cheng Sun said: "Ning Ze is so cautious, it seems that a sneak attack is impossible. In this case, it can only be defeated in front of the battle! You can discuss with Fang Ping, leave 10,000 soldiers and horses to surround Dageng County, and then the main force will merge and enter the ferry pass, and break Ningze first. ”

Zheng Fu listened to Cheng Sun's suggestion and sent someone to contact Fang Ping.

Fang Ping immediately led his troops over, joined forces with Zheng Fu, and directly stationed at the ferry pass, set up a horse rejection by the ferry river, and guarded the ferry bridge.

That night, the soldiers and horses of the Yuan and Han states were resting, and suddenly the gongs and drums sounded on the other side of the river.

A large group of soldiers and horses rushed to kill and fired lit crossbow arrows at the edge of the bridge.

Rockets filled the sky, causing the camps of the Yuan and Han states to burn.

The soldiers of both armies hurriedly extinguished the fire, while the archers counterattacked with a volley.

In the opposing camp, a general commanded in front of the formation, and some soldiers in the darkness recognized the armor and war horses, so they exclaimed: "Pei Gong voted for the enemy and led his troops to attack!"

For a time, the cries spread throughout the camp.

When Zheng Fu learned about it, he refused to believe it. He was very important to Pei Gong, and he regarded him as a confidant, how could he surrender?

So he rode out of the camp and went to the front of the battle to check.

Across the Crossing Horse River, under the dim firelight, I saw that Pei Gong was indeed commanding in the opposing army, although his face was not clear in the dark, the armor, war horses and even weapons were given to Pei Gong by himself, and the body shape was exactly the same.

Immediately furious: "Unthankful! Who will shoot this villain for me?"

The archers around him immediately aimed in the direction of "Pei Gong", and designed for a while.

Seeing the rain of arrows coming, "Pei Gong" immediately turned his horse's head and led the army to retreat quickly, and soon disappeared into the darkness.

wanted to send troops to chase and kill, Cheng Sun hurriedly persuaded: "Lord, don't chase, be careful of ambushes!"

Zheng Fu dispelled his thoughts, but he was particularly annoyed by Pei Gong's matter, and immediately summoned Pei Ji, Pei Gong's brother.

When Pei Ji saw Zheng Fu, he immediately shouted injustice: "Lord, my brother is loyal and will never take refuge in the enemy! ”

"What this official has seen with his own eyes, how can it be fake?" Zheng Fu said angrily, "I treat Pei Gong very well, but he betrayed me, how can it be reasonable!"

"Don't be angry, lord!" Pei Ji said busily, "Xia Guan dares to guarantee with his life, and my brother will not surrender to the enemy." It must be Ning Ze looking for someone to pretend to be, so that someone can see his brother's face clearly?"

When Zheng Fu heard this, he asked the other generals.

The generals looked at each other, then shook their heads one after another. In the darkness, under the dim firelight, it was still difficult to see the face of the military general on the other side of the river through the crossing bridge, especially when it was chaotic.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Fuxin said that it was really Ning Ze's plan?

Pei Ji continued: "My lord, as an envoy tomorrow, Xia Guan will personally go to the Ning Ze camp to investigate. If my brother defects to the enemy, the lower official will personally poison him to protect my Pei Ji's reputation. If the elder brother did not defect to the enemy, he also asked the lord to try to rescue him. ”

Zheng Fu thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "If Pei Gong really surrenders to the enemy, you may not be able to attack your own brother." At that time, he will join Ning Ze and betray my Hanzhou intelligence, which will cause great harm!"

"Lord, the Pei family is loyal to you, and there is no disagreement!" Pei Ji hurriedly knelt down and said.

"Yang Shen!" Zheng Fu turned to the other side.

"Yes!" a civilian officer stepped forward.

"Tomorrow, dare to go to the enemy camp as an envoy, ask Ning Ze for a prisoner, and check if Pei Gong has betrayed his official?" asked Zheng Fu.

The civil official immediately surrendered his hand: "The lower official is willing to go!"

"Okay!" Zheng Fu nodded and looked at Pei Ji, "After all, it was your own brother who fell into the enemy camp, so you stayed in the camp and waited for news! If Ning Ze planned a plan, this official would definitely try to rescue him." If Pei Gong betrays this official......"

"This is absolutely impossible!" Pei Ji raised his head and replied in the affirmative.

Zheng Fu waved his hand to let him stand down for the time being, and at the same time ordered him to be imprisoned left and right.

Because the soldiers and horses of Ning Ze came once, the soldiers and horses of the Yuan and Han states strengthened their patrols and did not dare to relax.

When it was almost ugly, the soldiers and horses of the two states fell into a deep sleep, and the patrol soldiers noticed that someone on the opposite bank was trying to sneak in from the side of the river, and hurriedly stepped forward to surround it.

The other party had just come ashore and found that the soldiers and horses of Hanzhou were surrounded, so he hurriedly turned around and transferred back to Hanoi, dived into the water and disappeared.

The patrol soldiers fired at the river, but the opponent was so good at the water that he could not hurt him in the slightest.

However, someone found an oil-paper package on the shore, which contained a letter with four big characters written on the cover: "My brother respects Qi".

Immediately sent it to the camp and handed it over to Zheng Fu.

Zheng Fu woke up in his sleep, and after hearing about this, he hurriedly opened the letter to check it.

It was found that the letter was written by Pei Gong and was to be handed over to his younger brother Pei Ji.

The letter said that he was ordered to ambush Xuanwu Peak, but was caught by Ning Ze. Ning Ze treated him with great courtesy and promised to reuse the people of the Pei family. Because he was worried about his younger brother, he sent his subordinates to secretly deliver a letter, telling him to quickly pack up and secretly leave the Hanzhou military camp. Before leaving, let Pei Ji send his henchmen to Pisces Ridge to burn down the granary as a battle exploit for Princess Yuanxi.

Zheng Fu was furious after reading the letter, the location of the Shuangyuling granary was only known to a few of his most trusted generals, and it was completely secret to others, even if most of the civil and military forces around him were not clear.

He was well aware of the importance of military rations, so he would never let anyone else know the location except his henchmen.

Pei Gong did not take refuge in Ning Ze, how did the other party know where the grain depot was?

was a little suspicious of Pei Ji before, and maybe Pei Gong did not betray. But now he is completely determined, and Pei Gong wants his younger brother to flee overnight, and even burns down the grain depot.

At that moment, he was furious, and shouted loudly: "Come on!! and capture Pei Ji and his subordinates with me." ”

Soon, Pei Ji and his subordinates were forcibly arrested in their sleep, calling out that they were wronged.

The civil and military officials were all awakened, and Zheng Fu gathered up and displayed the letter: "The Pei brothers betrayed and wanted to burn our army's grain depot, which is really hateful!"

The left and right civil and military were all indignant.

Zheng Fu was furious, and ordered Pei Ji and his men to be beheaded, and sent a letter to the Ningze military camp with the head of the envoy.

In the letters, he reprimanded Pei Gong for voting for the enemy, being ungrateful, and full of swearing.

The next day, the messenger sent the letter and Pei Ji's head, and when Ning Ze saw this, he first asked people to watch the messenger, and secretly imitated Zheng Fu's handwriting to write another letter.

Most of the letters have not been changed, and the swear words have been retained, but the content has become Zheng Fu scolding Pei Gong for being incompetent, resulting in heavy losses to the soldiers and horses of Hanzhou, and the crime is unforgivable. His younger brother Pei Ji led the troops to escape and was captured, and his head was beheaded according to the military order. scolded the Pei family for being incompetent, and lost to a yellow-haired child, what's the use of keeping it?

Replace the letter, put it next to the head, and order someone to summon Pei Gong.

After a short time, Pei Gong was brought up.

Zheng Fu's envoy saw that he was tied up with all kinds of flowers, and said in his heart that Pei Gong didn't take refuge in Ning Ze, how could he be tied up, and he was closely guarded?

Just thinking that Pei Gong also saw the envoy, he immediately showed a happy expression, thinking that Zheng Fu had sent someone to beg for a prisoner.

But don't dare to open your mouth to avoid bad things.

Ning Ze saw Pei Gong's expression in his eyes, and said quietly: "Zheng Yuanjun sent a messenger to send a package and a letter. Dare to ask the messenger, but these two objects on the table?"

And the messenger said in his heart, Aren't you talking nonsense?

He was invited down just now, and he didn't know what Ning Ze had done. Glancing at the fire paint on the envelope, he immediately nodded and replied: "Exactly! The lord ordered me to send these two things and give them to General Pei!"

Ning Ze turned to Pei Gong: "Untie General Pei!"

Left and right immediately went over and loosened the rope for Pei Gong.

Pei Gong moved his hands and feet, saw that the package was very strange, looked like a head, turned to the messenger and asked with his eyes, are you sure you have taken it wrong?

The envoy glanced at Pei Gong and did not react.

"General Pei!" Ning Ze made a gesture of invitation, and his subordinates immediately sent the package and envelope over.

Pei Gong opened the package curiously, but saw that it was his brother's head inside, and he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, his brain was buzzing and he almost fainted, and pointed to Ning Ze tremblingly: "Why is my brother's head here?"

"General Pei, this is an item sent by Zheng Yuanjun, and it has nothing to do with this army!" Ning Ze said.

Pei Gong hurriedly turned to the messenger and shouted, "Who killed my brother?"

The envoy looked at Pei Gong suspiciously, and said in his heart that he was practicing or what? Obviously betraying the lord, he still has the face to ask this?

Seeing that the envoy didn't speak, Pei Gong's emotional game was difficult to control, so he rushed over to question.

Ning Ze asked Wang Wei to stop him and said to him: "There is a book written by Zheng Yuanjun himself. ”

Pei Gong finally regained a trace of his senses, first stepped forward and squatted down, tremblingly picked up Pei Ji's head, then picked up the letter and tore it open, and put it in front of his eyes to take a closer look.

Sure enough, it was Zheng Fu's handwriting, and when he finished reading the content, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he roared angrily: "Zheng Fu Pifu!!"

In a fit of rage, he snatched the accessories of the soldier next to him and pounced on Zheng Fu's envoy.

Zheng Fu's envoy was shocked, and hurriedly retreated and shouted at Ning Ze: "The two armies will not fight and will not be killed!"

Ning Ze didn't hear it, and the envoy was beheaded by Pei Gong with a sword and died on the spot.

Killing the messenger, Pei Gong picked up his younger brother's head and cried bitterly. kept scolding Zheng Fu in his mouth, shouting that he was incompatible with it!

Ning Ze saw that his loyalty to Zheng Fu instantly zeroed, and the forces to which he belonged also became in the opposition, and knew that the discord was successful.

When Pei Gong calmed down, he stepped forward and sighed: "It was the division of this army that killed the brother...... of the general!

Hearing this, Pei Gong was even more sad: "Zheng Fu killed my own brother, this revenge is not shared! I take Zheng Fu as the master, Zheng Fu regards me as an enemy, and Pei Mou does not know anyone!"

"General Pei!" Ning Ze said softly on the side, "Why don't you join our army and personally lead the army to take revenge?"

Pei Gong turned around abruptly and bowed: "As long as I let Zheng Fu with my hand, I am willing to drive for Ning Zhonglang!"

"Hurry up, please get up!" Ning Ze stretched out his hand to support Pei Gong and ordered to go down, "Come! Put away the head, wait to defeat Zheng Fu to retrieve the body, and bury him!"

"Xie Ning Zhonglang!" Pei Gong personally wrapped his head, trembling and saluting, probably feeling angry, he turned around and picked up his sword and came to the front of the messenger's body, slashing nearly a hundred times in a row.

Ning Ze reminded Wang Wei and the others with his eyes that all the things that were separated were rotten in the stomach, and no one was allowed to leak secrets.
