Chapter 25: Death or Survival
The children of the big clans in the defending army were originally side branches with some martial arts, but when they arrived in the army, they relied on their status, refused to obey discipline, and neglected to practice.
After the Liangzhou army entered the city, these people not only suffered enough, but also worried about their lives every day, and now they were forced to go to the battlefield.
At this time, seeing that Taishou led the troops back, and heard the shouts of some people in the formation, they became bold one by one, and turned against the Liangzhou army beside him.
However, the sudden change occurred, and I saw the reinforcements led by Liu Zhi into the battle, and the blade was referring to the children of these more than 300 clans.
The shouts of killing came into the city through the city wall, and the lords of each family wanted to send people to investigate, but their mansions had already been surrounded by the Liangzhou army to attack the city with a chaotic army to prevent internal and external collusion.
This situation is similar to the Yang Mansion at that time.
Thinking of this, the old man naturally gave up the idea of taking risks and stayed at home in a proper manner.
Six or seven hours passed in this battle, and at first the Liangzhou army in the city was in order, and then suddenly began to dispatch back and forth, and finally simply withdrew from the siege.
When the people of Tongcheng just reacted, they could already hear someone shouting on the street.
"Taishou entered the city, and the Liangzhou army was defeated!"
The battle began abruptly and ended abruptly. Tongcheng city under the corpses everywhere, the main general Zhou Tong dismounted and surrendered, the people saw the Taishou Liu into the city, behind the soldiers and horses did not wear an inch of armor, there is a carriage, inlaid with gold and jade, extremely gorgeous, I don't know who sits in it.
At this time, Liu Zhu, who led the army to victory, had just woken up.
"Brother Li Maoxian, who is this car for?"
Before Liu Zhi entered the city, he saw that someone had brought this carriage, but it was only an empty carriage, and there was no one among them.
As soon as Lao Zhao entered the city, he went to besiege the Taishou Mansion, and he wanted to "take" Wenliang in front of the people, so that the play could be truly finished. And Li Mao has been by Liu Zhi's side, and when he saw him asking, he replied: "I am the lord of this Tongcheng." ”
"The foolish brother dared to say a word...... You are borrowing my name to take away my Great Chu City. ”
Before Liu Zhi spoke, he was still a little worried that Li Mao would tear his face with him at this time, but seeing Li Mao's expression as usual, he said: "Brother Liu, don't be anxious, and follow me to see someone, and then we will talk separately." ”
After Li Mao finished speaking, he rode away, and Liu Zhu gritted his teeth and was about to urge the horse to follow, but suddenly heard a person next to him call "Taishou".
Liu Zhu looked at the place where the voice came from, but it was the commander of the garrison. The two have not seen each other for a few days, and their moods are different. At this time, Liu Zhu didn't say much, said goodbye to me, and chased Li Mao. The commander of the garrison followed.
A few people passed through the city and arrived in front of the Taishou Mansion, and the play for outsiders had just ended. The commander of the garrison was stopped at the door.
In the house, Li Mao went to the main hall alone, while Liangzhou Bing led Liu Zhu all the way to the library, and saw two women waiting at the door from a distance, sitting and standing, clearly a pair of master and servant.
The woman who sat looked only twenty-eight years old, but there was no innocence in her eyes that a girl of this age often has, and when she saw him, the foreign man was not half shy, but more cunning.
"Nephew, my aunt came late and taught you to suffer." Wen said.
Liu Zhu was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly looked left and right, but he didn't see the child. Seeing Wen Gu looking at him again, he asked, "Who is the little lady talking to?" ”
"Of course it's with you." ”
When Liu Zhu heard her say this, he was obviously taking advantage of himself, but he was angry in his heart but it was not easy to attack, so he only said: "Little lady, don't laugh, do you know who I am?" ”
Listening to his tone, he suddenly chuckled, although Liu Zhi felt that he was being teased by her, but seeing her smile at this time, his anger was three points less.
Wen Gu smiled: "Of course I know who you are, and even you may not know as well as me." ”
Liu Zhu thought that this little lady was too old at a young age, so he followed her and asked, "Where do you start with this?" ”
He didn't reply to him, and asked again: "Do you know Liu Xia?" ”
"I know, it's my great-grandfather's cousin's house, we met a few years ago, why do you ask this?"
This is something that I didn't expect, such a remote relative, and not in one place, Liu Shu has also seen it. However, whether to cheat or not is not the key.
"I belong to his family, and it should be your aunt."
Liu Zhu was stunned again, then waved his hand and smiled: "Impossible, how could my uncle, a rural villager, be raised like this...... No way. ”
Liu Zhu thought of some beautiful words, but the other party teased him like this, and he praised her instead, wouldn't he lose face, so he didn't say anything.
Wen Gu smiled: "If the world is full of possible things, why should Taishou and I meet here at this time." ”
Wen Gu's tone was quite harsh, and without waiting for Liu Zhi to speak, he said: "If you are too guarded to defend a city, you should protect the people thoroughly, who can think that the enemy is at present, and he will abandon the city and flee first." Is this possible? ”
"You ......" Liu Zhu would have thought that he had lived for more than forty years, and he was scolded by a young girl like this, and his face turned red.
Wen Gu changed his words, and said: "Yang Wantang is the minister of Great Chu, not to mention the oppression of Taishou, but also the internal and external enemies, this is also possible?" ”
Liu Zhu thought to himself, if it wasn't for Yang Wantang bullying me, why would I be here. But he didn't say it.
"Liu Taishou has done the impossible, and the current situation must be clear to you, if you want to live, you need to do the impossible again to resolve it."
Liu Zhu was still a little stiff-mouthed, and said forcefully: "What is my situation? ”
Wen Gu's tone softened slightly, and said, "If Taishou doesn't know, I'll come and think about it for you." Although Dachu was in chaos, a city was too guarded to escape, and the court did not ask about those reasons, and capital crimes were inevitable. And I know that Taishou's ambition is difficult to show, so I came to the rescue, Taishou can be said to be in a hurry, went out of the city to invite reinforcements, and laid down the famous Liangzhou army. Not only did he get rid of the capital crime, but I am afraid it was a great achievement. ”
Liu Zhu sneered and said, "Is Liangzhou Jun actually a little lady in charge?" You, Liang Zhoujun, beat yourself and spent so much effort to act in this play, just to pretend to be my reputation and occupy my big Chu city. Do you think I can't see it? ”
"Liu Taishou can understand it, but you understand what is the use of this, what matters now is that you have to save your life." Wen Gu was already sitting on the high platform, stood up at this time, looked down at Liu Zhu, and said: "If we are the Liangzhou army, you first abandoned the city and fled, and then swaggered into the city, Nanchu learned that the army must be raised to attack, and the Liangzhou army will definitely not protect you." In such a situation, you will have no life. But if we are the reinforcements you invited, you not only kept Tongcheng, but also won the Liangzhou army, and since then your reputation has spread far and wide, and no one in the world knows you Liu. ”
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Liu Zhi, he obviously listened to his words, so his tone eased slightly: "Liu Taishou, seek life and death, do you have to think about it carefully?" ”
