Chapter 131: Lu Pheasant Shows His Talent in Danger
Pei Cheng wanted to attack the city, but he heard a child crying on the city, so he hurriedly looked at the city, only to see Wei Jun tied up his children and his wife Lu Pheasant came to the city. Suddenly, Zhang Shuo shouted loudly: "Liu Bang! Who do you see they are? Pei Gong and the soldiers looked up, only to see that Wei Bing had stretched out the small heads of his son Liu Ying and daughter Lu Yuan to the outside of the battlements of the city wall, and some people were holding knives and putting them on the children's necks to chop off their heads. When Pei Gong saw this scene, he almost fell out of the car in shock. Those Wei soldiers were all like fierce gods, and some people kicked the child's buttocks, and the child screamed in pain. Pei Gong's face suddenly turned pale, and he almost cried. Zhang Liang's reaction was extremely fast, and he hurriedly persuaded Pei Gong to stop the siege. Yingbu waved the command flag, and the sound of gold immediately sounded in the army, and the five thousand soldiers retreated like a tide.
Zhang said that when he saw that Pei Gong had stopped attacking the city, he shouted at the head of the city: "Liu Bang, listen, we Wei people are not a group of reckless barbarians, but if you push me into a hurry, I will let you witness something you never want to see!" Hahaha! Zhang said, grabbed the two children and held them in the air, and threatened: "These two little rabbit cubs, whether they are dead or alive, can you do it?" Ha ha! Pei Gong saw a pair of children suffering such a fright, and his heart was like a knife.
That night, Pei Gong remembered the scene that happened in the city during the day, and his heart ached. And they gathered together to take counsel. Zhang Liang said: "Please don't worry about Pei Gong, when I saw Wei Jiang lifting the child during the day, the Yong Tooth on the side seemed to be unbearable, I concluded that this person's conscience has not been completely extinguished, so your family will not be harmed!" Pei Gong listened to Zhang Liang's words, and remembered the bits and pieces of his previous relationship with Yongya, and he was sure that there was not much trouble between them, so he felt a little better. But then Pei Gong can only besiege the city, and dare not attack the city. Yingbu ordered the soldiers to surround the city, and asked the soldiers to shout together: "Don't let go of Yongya and Zhang Shuo, you must catch the two of them and skin them and cramp!" ”
That night, Yongya and Zhang Shuo heard the shouting, and saw that there were many soldiers and horses brought by Pei Gong, and there were cattle like Yingbu to help them, so they were really scared. Yongya said first: "It seems that Pei Gong will not give up, if we fall into his hands, I am afraid we will die a miserable death!" Zhang said: "If Liu Bang attacks the city again, we will kill his family." Yongya said: "Even if we kill his family, we will not escape death in the end, and I will also harm my family!" The two of them became more and more nervous, and they couldn't sleep all night.
The next day, they came to the city again to watch. Zhang said that when he saw that Pei Gong had a lot of men and horses, he jumped like thunder and shouted loudly that Pei Gong must withdraw the siege. But Pei Gong did not agree. The angry Zhang Shuo tied Lu Pheasant alone to the city and said, "Liu Bang! If you don't withdraw today, I'll strip her clothes!" Seeing that Wei was about to embarrass Lu Pheasant, Pei Gong was furious in his heart, so he said: "Dog, if you dare to move her, I will cut you with a thousand knives!" Zhang said: "Since you are going to cut me with a thousand knives, I will kill her first, then your son and daughter, and finally your old man, and then I will kill myself!" Let's fight to the death! When Pei Gong saw that Zhang said that he would die with his family, he was so anxious that he had no way to think of it.
When Lu Pheasant saw this scene, he reprimanded Yongya sternly, saying that he had no ability, and it was his fault for luring the wolf into the house and making a mess of things. Zhang said that he was annoyed and angry, so he ordered the sergeant to strip Lu Pheasant's clothes first and told her to talk nonsense again. Lu Pheasant saw Yongya's face ashamed on the side, and he seemed to be unbearable, so he said to him: "Yongya, although I am a woman, I am really ashamed of you big men!" You men are fighting for heaven and earth, why are you angry with us women? What kind of business is this? As a son of Fengyi, a warrior in your hometown, and a hero against Qin, you let me be humiliated in public, don't you feel ashamed? What is Pei Gong sorry for you? Not only did you give up your hometown to others, but you also let others do this to me? Where is your conscience? Are you worthy of the land that gave birth to you and raised you? Are you worthy of your parents? I used to think you were a man, but I didn't think you were a wreck! Inhuman Stuff! You're a seven-foot man for nothing! What kind of hero are you? Sister-in-law is really chilling for you! Yongya was scolded so ashamed that he was embarrassed for a while, and he was ashamed of himself.
However, Lu Pheasant said that the fall of Yongya played a positive role, and also woke up Yongya's conscience, which aroused his anger, and he suddenly had great sympathy for Lu Pheasant, and suddenly scolded Wei Jun who was about to come forward to insult Lu Pheasant and said: "Get out of here!" Whoever dares to come near her, I will slaughter her! With that, he suddenly drew his sword. When those Wei soldiers saw Yongya like this, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to make a move. Zhang Shuo was also stunned on the side, he knew very well that if Yongya turned his eyes at this time, everything would be finished, and everyone would definitely die under Liu Bang's sword, maybe even very miserably, so he risked his life, also drew his sword in his hand, pointed at Yongyan and shouted: "You capricious villain!" Do you dare to turn against you? Someone! Take this thing down for me! Without waiting for Wei Bing to step forward, Yongya also shouted at Fengyi's disciples: "Brothers, give it to me!" I saw a group of Fengyi's children rushing to the city in anger, and they raised their weapons to confront the Wei soldiers.
When the people in the city saw this scene, they were in an uproar, and they shouted together to protect Mrs. Lu and kill Wei Gou. The people of Fengyi usually know that Lu Pheasant is a beautiful, kind, dignified, and virtuous woman, everyone admires her, and knows that her beauty is famous. Let Pei Gong enter the city! Zhang said that he was overwhelmed by this sudden change, he knew very well that even if he was really stiff, he would not be able to escape, so he couldn't help but look at Lu Pheasant's face: Oh my God! The beauty in front of her is indeed a mighty and charming stunner in the world, although her anger has not been eliminated, but on her beautiful face, there has been a faint exudation of an aggressive Ling Ran righteousness, this righteousness pierced him without embarrassment. Zhang said that at this time, he felt how obscene and small he was, how could he be like this? When a man is very incompetent, he will take out his anger at other people's women and his family, and he is also a person with parents, wives, and children! He was finally moved by this arrogant and holy goddess, and he no longer dared to hurt her, so he slowly put down the sword in his hand, lowered his proud head, and his eyes seemed to be begging for mercy from Lu Pheasant.
At this time, Fengyi's children were also besieged more and more, and they would never allow the atrocities of the Wei soldiers. Just when the two sides were in control, Yingbu had already led a large group of men and horses to approach the city again, and they actually surrounded a small Fengyi, and then the angry people shouted in unison: "Capture Wei Dog alive!" Don't let go of Wei Dog! "It's getting louder. Zhang Shuo was shocked, so he had to say to Yongya: "I didn't expect you to be like this?" Are we all going to die at the hands of Liu Bang?" Yongya suddenly replied decisively: "No! I don't want to die at his hands either! I will neither harm the villagers nor betray the Wei State, you let your soldiers lay down their arms, and we will go out of the city together!" Zhang said and asked how to get out of the city. Yongya turned around and walked in front of Lu Pheasant, nodded to the ground on one knee, and saluted: "Mrs. Lu, I have my reasons for not wanting to follow Pei Gong, but I am not a capricious person!" In order to confirm this, now please ask Madame to let Pei Gong disperse the soldiers and horses, I will escort General Zhang out of the city, and none of the children in my hometown will be taken away, and I will never hurt Madame, but I must ask Madame to personally escort us out of the city! Lu Pheasant understood what Yongya meant, so he agreed to his request, so he said decisively: "Brother, good example, since you are righteous, I will not be ruthless, I will personally send you out of the city!" Zhang Shuo hurriedly repelled the Wei army. Yongya also hurriedly untied Lu Pheasant's rope.
Lu Pheasant looked back at the city, and saw that all the people were quietly watching her, so he explained the meaning of Yongya to Pei Gong, and said that he would also fulfill his promise and escort them out of the city. Pei Gong also understood what Yongya meant, so he said loudly: "Yongya, you rabbit cub, Lao Tzu respects you as a man, I promise you!" But don't let me run into you again! Lu Pheasant blushed at Pei Gong's rudeness, and she was about to say not to use swear words to curse. But before the words were spoken, Pei Gong had already ordered the siege to be withdrawn.
Lu Pheasant rode alone, escorting Yongya and Zhang Shuo's soldiers and horses out of the city. Zhang said that he had just crossed the suspension bridge when he suddenly heard someone shouting from the south: "Hugh is going to kidnap my sister-in-law, Fan is coming!" "The sound was like thunder. Zhang said that he panicked and galloped away. Yongya also hurriedly said goodbye to Lu Pheasant: "Please Madame go back, I won't forget today's life-saving grace!" So saying, he hurriedly beat his horse and galloped westward. Lu Pheasant looked back and saw that Fan Xu had already led dozens of cavalry to rush from the south, so he asked loudly: "Brother-in-law, you are not guarding Xiao County, why are you here?" Fan said: "I heard that the eldest brother moved in to rescue the soldiers, and I came to help him." I saw Yongya trying to kidnap my sister-in-law just now, so I'm going to catch up with him now and cut off my head! "Then we have to catch up. Lu Pheasant hurriedly stopped it, and also told Yongya's agreement. Fan Hao said: "In this case, it's still cheaper for that kid!" If you don't catch up and chop an axe, it will be difficult to solve the hatred in my heart! Lu Pheasant resolutely stopped it. Fan Xu escorted Lu Pheasant into the city.
At this time, in the city of Fengyi, all the alleys were empty, men, women and children came out to greet Pei Gong, everywhere was looking for the father and calling the father, crying and calling the voice of the father, it turned out that the more than 300 people brought by Pei Gong were the children of Fengyi. When Pei Gong and Ying Bu and the others came to the city gate, Lu Pheasant and Fan Hao also arrived. Pei Gong was relieved to see that his wife was not harmed, so he comforted her a few words and went into the city together. Pei Gong came to the city and was very happy to see that his family was reunited. At this time, a pair of children ran to him, hugged him, and cried for their father. Pei Gong picked up the two children very lovingly, and kissed them like raindrops on their little faces. This night Fengyi was very lively, everyone ran to tell each other, walked the streets and alleys, greeted each other, and made a fuss for most of the night.
The next day, Pei Gong summoned all the fathers and elders of the city, reprimanded those who had betrayed Yongya with hatred, and ordered that every household must sacrifice wine and meat and send them to the army immediately, which was regarded as their punishment. When those children heard that the punishment was so small, they were all grateful for Pei Gong's kindness, so they hurriedly prepared gifts to send them. Then Pei Gong held a banquet in the courtyard of the Fengyi Mansion to reward Xiang Jun, and people's sorrows disappeared at this time.
After a while, the official hall in Fengyi was full of celebratory people, Pei Gong was overjoyed, first raised a glass to Yingbu and others, and then said to Zhang Liang: "This time I can borrow soldiers and horses and recover Fengyi, it is all the credit of Mr., please drink this bottle and express your gratitude." Zhang Liang drank it all. Ying said: "Mr. Zifang can be regarded as the earliest anti-Qin hero in Shandong in Bolangsha, and I also respect Mr. Zhang Liang said: "The Qin State is very brutal, they build a lot of construction and enslave the people, who doesn't hate it?" In the early years of the British general in Xianyang, he also raised his arms and shouted, and led hundreds of strong men to rebel, you are the hero! Yingbu said: "With Mr. Xiang's talent, he should serve under General Xiang, and the future will be immeasurable?" When Pei Gong heard this, he was very unhappy. Zhang Liang sighed with emotion: "I am an outlaw, if it is not King Zhang Chu who is the first to attack, I will not get out of Xiapi, let alone fight with the Qin army." Five generations of my ancestors have been auxiliary ministers of King Han, so I am bent on restoring Kingdom X, and when Pei Gong settles down a little, I will leave him to complete my mission of restoring Han! Yingbu said, "I see! ”
Pei Gong thought for a moment, then left his seat and walked to Yingbu to toast: "The general has worked hard all the way, and you have helped me recover Fengyi, I am really grateful." If I can get a hero like the general, it will be easy to destroy Zhang Han! Ying said: "General Liu, Xiang Liang is after Xiang Yan, he is extremely famous, and now he is calling on the people to oppose Qin, why don't Pei Gong defect to General Xiang, so that you can also establish a meritorious career!" Seeing that Yingbu persuaded everyone to go to Xiang Liang, Fan Hao stood up and said, "As long as you fight with the Qin army, it's good!" I heard that the general came out of Xianyang to kill the general, and his prestige shocked the world. Presumably, the military's martial arts are also unparalleled, right? I want to compare swordsmanship with the general to help today's Yaxing, I don't know what the general wants? Yingbu 'chuckled' in his heart, and felt that Fan Xu was provoking him, so he smiled and said: "What's so difficult about this, I'm willing to accompany you!" So he drew his sword in his hand.
Zhang Liang saw that the two rough people said that the contest had already begun, so he hurriedly got up and stopped: "The people of Fengyi have just been held hostage by the Wei army, and they are in shock, if you dance here today, you will definitely scare them." I heard that Pei Gong likes to sing and dance, and everyone is reunited after a long absence, why don't you invite Pei Gong to present a song and dance to everyone tonight, this must be better than dancing weapons! Pei Gong understood and knew that the ovary was relieving the siege, so he immediately stepped forward and inserted Fan Xu's sword into the scabbard, and said, "I'm worried that someone is going to attack Xiao County, so you set off immediately and go to Xiao County to guard." If you lose Xiao County again, I'm going to cut off your head! Fan Xu reluctantly agreed, and then turned and walked out of the hall. He looked back at the table full of delicious food and wine, and felt a sense of loss, blaming himself for being too reckless and missing the opportunity to eat and drink. When Pei Gong saw that Fan Xu was gone, he said to Ying: "Fan Xu is a rough person and can't sing, how can he be happy?" British general, please watch me sing and dance at the same time, how about it? So he put his sword back in its sheath and sat down in its place. Pei Gong then raised the bottle and danced, and sang with confidence:
The sun and the moon repeatedly come out of Fusang, and heaven and earth alternate with each other's lights.
Who rules the wine? Who is building the golden platform?
What is the husband's desire to be born? Expand the territory and make a meritorious name.
Ande is dragging the sword of the sky, and the sound of offering Kai is shaking!
The singing is impassioned and inspiring. Yingbu and the others were impressed by Pei Gong's talent, and everyone only cared about drinking and singing. After Pei Gong finished singing, he drank a few more large cups, gently covering up the embarrassing situation just now. Zhang Liang thought to himself: Pei Gong is not only old and serious, but also smart, he can resolve emergencies seamlessly, and he is really a wise master. The next day, Yingbu and the others wanted to return to Liucheng to resume their lives. Pei Gong said to Yingbu, General Pu and others: "You go back, thank General Xiang for me first, and when I settle down here, I will definitely go to thank General Xiang in person." Yingbu and the others agreed to go back to the city.
