In the inner city palace of Shouchun, many people are ready to move, and An Qingzhong has only more than 4,000 people trapped in the inner city at the moment, facing tens of thousands of Southern Qi troops, which is tantamount to using a mantis arm as a car.

But An Qingzhong was obviously unwilling to be so restrained, and seeing that there were soldiers around him with ghosts, An Qingzhong shouted angrily: "The Lu of the Eater, the matter of the Loyal Monarch, since we are the soldiers of the Great Qin, how can we lose our sense of proportion because of a few words from Nanqi Xiaoer!" ”

Immediately, the soldiers around him were much more stable, but An Qingzhong also knew in his heart that defeat was only a matter of time, and he was only trapped in the inner city.

But An Qingzhong has his own little abacus, if he can pull Wei Ran's back before he dies, then he will not die unjustly.

Thinking of this, An Qingzhong gently stroked his beard, and then began to think about countermeasures while ordering the soldiers to strictly guard everywhere.

The partial general Cai Xingde saw his intentions, and said to An Qingzhong: "General, we can pretend to surrender, lead Wei Ran close to the city tower, and then secretly ambush the crossbowmen, find the right opportunity, and kill with one blow." ”

When An Qingzhong heard this, he didn't reply immediately, but stared at the stones in the inner city.

Cai Xingde saw that An Qingzhong had never replied, and thought that An Qingzhong did not agree with this plan, so he hurriedly said: "The general must not hesitate, there is not much grain in the inner city now, and the Qi army only needs to besiege the city for two or three days. ”

An Qingzhong slammed the wall with his fist at this time, and said: "How can I not know this reason, it's just that the opportunity is fleeting, if I can't kill Wei Ran with one blow, then all the previous efforts will be wasted, I wanted to deceive Wei Ran to the inner city, but I think he will not enter the inner city, so I give up, the general's words, it's not impossible, but there are still such good players in the army?" ”

"The last general is not talented, and he is willing to take on this heavy responsibility!" Then Cai Xingde took the initiative to ask for help.

Seeing that Cai Xingde was willing to give it a try, An Qingzhong was also overjoyed, and hurriedly patted Cai Xingde on the shoulder and said, "If General Cai succeeds, it will also benefit my Daqin." ”

Wei Ran besieged the inner city of Shouchun on all sides at this time, and did not attack in a hurry, but instead asked people to start building the city wall outside the inner city, intending to surround the inner city again.

Seeing this, Zhang Gui immediately laughed and danced, and kept saying: "Whoever is the enemy of King Qin is really unlucky." ”

Liu Renye saw Zhang Gui laughing, and his heart was even more puzzled, so he pulled Zhang Gui and asked, "Why did the general say that?" ”

Zhang Gui had already leaned back with a smile at this time, and when he saw Liu Renye asking, it took a while to stabilize his emotions and say: "Our King Qin is good at everything, but he is too petty, he will never go head-to-head if he can not fight head-on, and if he can disgust people, he will disgust people, and now An Qingzhong himself locked himself in the inner city and tried to resist, but King Qin had just asked, there is no food in the inner city, and the King of Qin is now building a city wall outside the inner city, don't you see that there is no door, obviously it is going to starve these thousands of people directly." ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Liu Renye was stunned, but even Liu Renye's wife Lei Duoer was stunned.

After all, Lei Duoer is a female streamer, and there is still the kindness of women, so she immediately pulled Liu Renye and said in her ear: "King Qin is like this, wouldn't he not give thousands of Qin troops in the city a way to live, in case they want to surrender, what should they do." ”

Zhang Gui obviously heard Lei Duoer's words and said, "Big sister, you are too worried. King Qin suffered such a big loss when he was attacked by the camp, but I am afraid that he will not accept surrender. ”

Seeing that Wei Ran was determined to starve thousands of people to death, Lei Duoer couldn't bear it, so he returned to the camp under the pretext of rectifying military affairs.

At this time, Wei Ran was in a restaurant outside the inner city, asked for some good wine and food near the window, and drank alone.

Due to the baptism of war, there is only one guest in this restaurant, Wei Ran, the boss himself does not plan to open, and he is closed, but when he sees that the person who comes is Wei Ran, he does not dare to slack off, the guy and others have been dismissed, the boss can only cook in person, and also let his daughter accompany him.

Wei Ran naturally didn't care about men and women, and didn't even look at the women, just drank and watched the soldiers start to build the wall.

This made the boss's daughter very unconvinced, although she was sixteen years old, she was also a beauty, and she couldn't look down on how many people came to ask to marry her on weekdays, and now she was so neglected.

Then she followed Wei Ran's gaze and saw that the walls were being built outside the inner city, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "If the wall is built like this, won't the Qin troops in the inner city all die inside." ”

Wei Ran didn't answer, just took a sip of wine, then put down the wine glass and ate a bite of meat.

After savoring it carefully, Wei Ran said a sentence: "With this strategy, our army can reduce its losses, although the attack on the inner city can be broken, but our Qi army will definitely lose a lot of losses, trapped beasts are still fighting, under the outbreak of people's will to survive, combat effectiveness is not to be underestimated." ”

But then the woman's words made Wei Ran stand on the spot.

"The father of the King of Qin, Qin Dingnan, loves the people like a son, loves soldiers like a brother, so he is quite popular in Huainan and Huaibei. When he was stationed in Huainan, the little girl was still young, but she always heard her father mention that Wei Hou Ye was a masterpiece in the world. At that time, after Wei Houye conquered Shouchun, he captured more than 30,000 soldiers of the Southern Qi Dynasty, and later released all of them, and everyone was puzzled. Wei Houye just said that the dispute between the two cities is to recruit troops on the spot, today it is occupied by Qin, and tomorrow it will be occupied by Qi, and even the people themselves can't tell whether they are Qin or Qi, how can we tell the difference? Killing and killing, and in the end it was his own blood compatriots who died. ”

When Wei Ran heard this, his heart was also greatly touched, and at this time, he was looking at the woman in front of him.

Seeing that although this woman was beautiful, there was a heroic spirit between her eyebrows, so she was quite curious: "I see that your family is well-off, but it is not the same as the ladies I imagined." ”

Then Wei Ran motioned for the woman to sit down, and the woman sat down and said: "The two Huai have been in turmoil for many years, and when the Southern Qi army evacuated Shouchun, they looted in Shouchun, and I was hiding under the bed and shivering, and I was very afraid, and then I began to read and learn martial arts, not asking to protect the family and defend the country, but to be able to keep the family peaceful." ”

"Haha! Really a strange woman too. Wei Ran immediately called the boss and said: "The young daughter is quite smart and insightful, and this king likes it quite much." ”

As soon as these words came out, the boss was quite embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, he thought that Wei Ran had a crush on his daughter, and it was naturally a good thing to be able to have a relationship with King Qin according to reason, but he was such a precious daughter, so he naturally couldn't bear to let her be a concubine, and he knew his daughter's temperament himself.

So the boss wiped his sweat and said: "It is the blessing of the little girl to be able to win the love of King Qin, but the little girl is free and stubborn, I am afraid that she will not be able to stand the rules and regulations in the palace." ”

Wei Ran couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and then looked at the boss who kept sweating on his forehead, and couldn't help laughing: "It's this king's mistake, this king's intention is to accept your daughter as a righteous sister." ”

When the boss heard this, he was overjoyed and wanted to kneel down to thank him.

But he was stopped by the boss's daughter and said, "There are many women in the world, why did King Qin choose me alone?"

Wei Ran sighed and said: "Although there are many women in the world, not every one of them can meet them. ”

Wei Ran immediately took another sip of wine: "If you don't want to, this king won't force you." ”

The woman didn't refuse directly, but gently poured a glass of wine for King Qin: "Actually, the little woman is not unwilling, but she just thinks that King Qin is too hasty like this, and since the little woman has won the favor of King Qin and has the blessing of her identity, she must also do something for the palace, right?" ”

Seeing such a transparent woman, Wei Ran couldn't help laughing at himself.

Then Zhengse said: "The son of Xiao Yi, the king of Xiang, Xiao Zifang, is only sixteen this year, and he has not yet married a wife." Now that the Xiao family is scarce, I see that you have outstanding appearance and intend to protect you as a matchmaker. I wonder if you would like to? ”

As soon as these words came out, the woman didn't feel anything, but the boss knelt down directly, not daring to shout.

Wei Ran didn't pay attention to him, just looked at the woman.

"The little woman Li Qin has thanked the King of Qin for her love here, if the son of the King of Xiang is indeed a personal masterpiece, it is not impossible."

Hearing this, Wei Ran breathed a sigh of relief, now that Xiao Yi has entered the dynasty and become Dazai, he is already on the same level as Wei Ran in terms of official position, but Xiao Yi is quite respectful to Wei Ran on weekdays, like a subordinate, in order to avoid everyone's criticism, Wei Ran still feels that he needs to use the in-law relationship to tie the two sides to the chariot.

His daughter Wei Hongxiang has already made a baby kiss with the prince Xiao Ye, and now if she can marry Xiao Yi, then the two sides will work together to create brilliance again.

In fact, Xiao Ju's original intention was to let Zhang Zemao take over Dazai, but all the ministers were unwilling, Xiao Ju also took into account his physical condition, so he chose Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi is a relative of the emperor, and now he has made great contributions to quelling the rebellion, so that he can not only be rewarded, but also pacified the world.

Wei Ran then said to Li Qin: "In this case, when this matter is over, I will repair a book, and you and your father will go to Jiankang together, and I will let my mother take care of you." ”

After saying this, Wei Ran summoned his guards and ordered: "Inform General Zhang that the city wall does not need to be repaired anymore, get out of the way, and let them escape by themselves." ”

Wei Ran then thought of something, and shouted to the guards who were about to leave: "The soldiers who were captured before, if their hometown is Huainan and Huaibei, they will be put back to their hometowns, and if they are outside the Guan, they will be taken care of, and the prisoners will be treated like this in the future, and the two Qins will be notified to come and replace them." ”

At this time, in the inner city, An Qingzhong saw that Wei Ran built the city wall without leaving a gate, so he said in despair: "Wei Ran is trying to trap us." ”

Suddenly learned that Wei Ran had destroyed all the city walls that had been built, and An Qingzhong was even more puzzled in his heart.

At this time, Wei Ran had already ridden his horse to the vicinity of the inner city and shouted to the city: "I can let you open the north gate and let you return north on your own, but you must leave your armor and weapons, and this king will give you three days' rations." ”

Hearing this, the hearts of the Northern Qin soldiers were suddenly turbulent, and many people looked at An Qingzhong with begging eyes, An Qingzhong didn't know what kind of medicine Wei Ran was selling in the gourd, and he was afraid that Wei Ran was using it to deceive him out, so he didn't dare to reply.

On the contrary, Cai Xingde said at this time: "General, Wei Ran is cunning with soldiers, this must be deceitful, when we lay down our weapons and are unarmed, will we not be slaughtered at will." ”

When An Qingzhong heard this, he was also wavering.

Wei Ran saw that there was no reaction in the city, so he said again: "Whether it is Qin or I, everyone is Han. This king wanted to trap you in the inner city, but when he thought of this, the scene would be desolate, and the king couldn't bear it, so he let you wait for a way to live, and you should not make a mistake yourself, otherwise this king will besiege the city for three days, and you will also be a dead end. ”

At this time, the Qin troops in the inner city had already laid down their weapons one after another, and the more daring ones had already thrown their weapons out of the inner city and outside the city.

Wei Ran saw that some weapons had already begun to be thrown out, so he stepped up and said: "Putting down the weapon is equivalent to surrendering, since ancient times, the killing and surrender is unknown, this king is now in his prime, and he doesn't want to die young!" ”

Hearing Wei Ran's almost ridiculous words, even the soldiers of Nanqi couldn't help laughing.

An Qingzhong also felt that Wei Ran was justified at this time, so he planned to go out of the city to surrender, Cai Xingde grabbed An Qingzhong at this time and said: "The general is a great opportunity, the last general has a sleeve arrow in his hand, and when he goes out of the city for a while, the last general will wait for the opportunity to sneak attack Wei Ran, and he will be successful." ”

An Qingzhong grabbed Cai Xingde and said: "If you hurt Wei Ran at this time, will the four thousand soldiers and you and me still be able to walk out of Shouchun alive?" Not to mention the fact that there are thousands of brothers who have been captured outside. ”

When Cai Xingde heard this, he stopped talking, but he still had his own little Jiujiu in his heart.

An Qingzhong then ascended the inner city tower, and the Southern Qi soldiers pointed their bows and arrows at An Qingzhong, who unloaded the swords and armor and then discarded them outside the inner city.

Seeing this, Wei Ran slowly came to the inner city not far away, and said: "This king will not break his promise, and when you go out of the inner city, you can go to the quartermaster at the north gate to receive three days' rations, and then go out of the city by yourself." But only to the north, not to the south! ”

After hearing this, An Qingzhong sighed, and planned to walk down the city tower.

At this time, Cai Xingde suddenly rushed up to the city tower, raised his sleeve arrow, and was about to shoot at Wei Ran.

Seeing this, An Qingzhong shouted: "Cai Xingde, don't make a mistake!" ”

Then he was going to stop Cai Xingde, Cai Xingde was already preparing to launch a sleeve arrow at this time, but was suddenly pulled by An Qingzhong, Cai Xingde didn't have time to react, and the sleeve arrow was launched, directly through An Qingzhong's throat.

At this time, there was a riot in the inner city of Shouchun, Cai Xingde looked at An Qingzhong, who was staring at him, and was about to release arrows at Wei Ran again, but at this time, Wei Ran had already shot arrows with a bow, and an arrow killed Cai Xingde.

The soldiers of the Northern Qin Dynasty all looked at each other and lost their opinions.

Wei Ran drank at this time: "An Qingzhong's corpse is left, this king will personally bury it, and divide the corpse of the dog thief who put the dark arrow, the Northern Qin soldiers don't need to worry, what this king said before will not change!" ”

At this time, the Northern Qin soldiers walked out of the inner city tremblingly, and Wei Ran also kept his promise, but Liu Renye and the others were afraid of another farce like Cai Xingde, so they asked Zhang Gui to forcibly take Wei Ran away from the scene.

Wei Ran was also annoyed when he returned to the mansion, he was very big for a while, if it wasn't for An Qingzhong who was indeed a loyal person, I am afraid that he would have been plotted.

The more Wei Ran thought about it, the more angry he became, and he called the guards and said, "Hurry up, throw the body of that dog thief out and feed the dog!" ”
