Xue Lu began to send people to guard the gates of the cities, and later some people directly climbed down from the city walls and surrendered, and they couldn't be guarded.

He had just come to the city wall with a few cronies, and at a glance he saw a group of officers and soldiers going over the wall a hundred paces away.

", take arrows, shoot them, shoot them." Xue Lu was furious.

The retinue had no choice but to gather a team of archers and strode over to shoot arrows.

But the archers had no strength, let alone the heart, and Hihira shot two waves, but none of them hit.

The officers and soldiers in the distance jumped off the wall one after another, and then cheered and ran desperately in the direction of the rebel army.

Many officers and soldiers on the city wall looked at them with envious eyes.

Deputy General Wang Or cautiously approached Xue Lu's side at this time, and said in a low voice: "Why don't we also pretend to go out and surrender, and then take the opportunity to kill out?"

Hmm, Xue Lu's face was flushed, ashamed and angry.

But he didn't have a seizure, just stood still, his mind assessing the possibility of it.

"Report." Someone in the city suddenly came to report that on the east gate, there was a thousand households with a large number of people out of the city to surrender to the king of Han.

Hmph, Xue Lu's face turned even redder, and the whole person was about to explode.

When he retreated to Pingbawei, there were still more than 40,000 people, and it was only ten days of hard work, and it was estimated that there were no more than 30,000, and people ran out to descend every day.

On the other side, there are book arrows shooting in every day, saying that the Ming people don't fight the Ming people, everyone is their own people, and the army of Xue Lu's subordinates is disheartened, and everyone wants to surrender to the King of Han.

This Zhu Gaoxu is too bad.

Wang Or didn't say this to Xue Lu in private, but at this moment, there was a sudden commotion below.

Then someone shouted, "What are you doing? ”

"Get out of the way, we want to see Yang Wuhou."

"We want to see General Xue."

When, dang, zheng, followed by a sound of saber rattling.

Xue Lu's face was even more ugly, and he hurriedly said, "You go and see what happened." ”

Wang He ran out and came back after a while, saying that he was a few commanders, thousands of households, and wanted to see Xue Lu and persuaded Xue Lu to surrender.

Grass, Xue Lu was furious at that time, they were looking for death, and they were going to order these people to be arrested.

The king hastened to persuade him, "Don't do that, for the city is full of their people."

Xue Lu has no foundation in Guizhou, he only came to Guizhou after the Jingjing, and served as a chief military officer for three years, although there are a group of henchmen below, but there are still a large number of command levels, especially those at the thousand-level level, all of whom are from Guizhou.

Now that the morale is chaotic, if Xue Lu dares to order the killing, there will be a mutiny immediately.

Xue Lu thought about it for a while, and had no choice but to say, "Invite them over." ”

After a while, several commanders and more than a dozen thousand households came to the city.

Everyone surrounded Xue Lu in a noisy manner: "General Xue, come down, my brother can't even eat, how can he fight?" ”

"It's all their own people, the Ming people don't beat the Ming people, who is the emperor different? We're all soldiers, so we have to survive now. ”

"Lao Tzu followed the King of Han in the Jing Difficulty, and the King of Han won a hundred battles, and only by following the King of Han can he win the battle."

"That's it, let's go down."

All around the mouth, all asking to be lowered.

Xue Lu looked over quietly, and found that when someone spoke, his hands were on the handle of the knife, and he looked vigilant, obviously preventing Xue Lu from turning his face.

When he looked up again, he clearly felt that there were many soldiers gathered under the city, all looking at it, as if waiting for the outcome of their negotiations.

Special mother, Xue Lu secretly scolded, this is forcing the palace.

Xue Lu's eyes quickly turned a few times, and said with a smile: "I fought side by side with the King of Han in the Jing Trouble, we used to be good brothers, everyone is right, this big tomorrow, after all, it is their Zhu family themselves who are fighting, and it has nothing to do with us, who is the emperor is not the emperor." ”

"For now, it's important for us to survive first."

As soon as Xue Lu's words fell, a thousand households on the opposite side raised their hands happily: "The general said that it has fallen, it has fallen." ”

“。。” Xue Lu's face turned blue, when did I say that it had fallen.

"Wow." The city suddenly cheered, and then this cheer soon swept the entire Pingba Guard.

If it falls, it falls, and the brothers can fall.

Cao Niniang, Xue Lu was angry, and before he finished speaking, his subordinates were all shouting to surrender.

He hurriedly glanced at Wang Or: "Go." ”

He hurried downstairs with the king.

At this time, there was jubilation in the city, and many people ran to the gate, ready to open it.

Xue Lu and Wang may find the only one hundred remaining war horses, take dozens of henchmen, and then turn over and get on the horses.

"Get out of the city first, and then go in the direction of Guiyang." Xue Lu led people to the east gate, and found that the east gate had been opened, and the officers and soldiers inside threw away their weapons and ran out to surrender to the rebels.

There were a few low walls outside, and they didn't dare to run around casually, so they could only follow the army and slowly go out of the city, and after leaving the city, they found that the rebel army was very careful.

The officers and soldiers who went out first undressed their armor, and then in groups of five, they tied their left or right hands to a rope and sent them to other places.

Dozens of them rode out on horseback and immediately attracted the attention of the other side: "Dismount, quickly, take off your armor." ”

These are all Xue Lu's henchmen, and everyone is wearing armor, which is unusually obvious.

Xue Lu looked at it, didn't say a word, and said sharply: "Go." ”

Driving, dozens of horses ran out frantically.

They thought they would be fine after passing those walls.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he ran up about fifty steps, there was a boom, and there was a loud bang on the ground.

Then, bang, bang, several explosions in succession.

It turned out that the ground was full of kicking horses, and the people who blew them up turned on their backs, screaming again and again.

After Xue Lu rushed through this minefield, he turned his head and saw that there were only twelve horsemen left with him.

He was angry and scared, and continued to run out without stopping.

Suddenly, a war horse in front of him made a mournful roar, and then there was a boom, and the war horse fell to the ground fiercely.

Then it's like a chain reaction, plopping and plopping, and the horses are brought down one by one.

Only then did Xue Lu discover that a pit suddenly appeared on the ground, this pit was not big, but it was not small, and after the hooves of the war horse stepped into it, he immediately fell.

plopped, Xue Lu and his horse landed heavily, and his eyes were full of gold stars, and his mind was in chaos.

In a daze, he didn't know how long it took for him to feel himself being picked up.

After a while, he finally regained his senses a little, and when he looked closely, he saw a familiar big face with a smile on his face.

"Peace?" Xue Lu finally knew who Guizhou's opponent was, and he stared at Ping An with an incredulous expression.

"Horn" stepped forward safely with a big mouth, and Xue Lu almost fainted to death after beating.

"Grandpa Ping's name is called, dog thing, called Pingye, hahaha." Ping An laughed wildly.

On July 7, the Pingba Guard, which had been held out for more than ten days, finally could not stand it, and a large number of officers and soldiers secretly came out to surrender, and Xue Lu was also captured alive.

At this point, Sheng Yong was able to occupy the entire territory of Guizhou, and received 60,000 troops from the official army, and the number of troops reached 140,000 at once.

——

Guilin, Guangxi.

Early in the morning, a teahouse on the street was already overcrowded, and the locals who liked to drink morning tea occupied the location of the teahouse in the morning.

"Horn" followed the heavy pat of the storyteller on the second floor: "Last time, it was said that the king of Xuan was mediocre, and torture was the way, he made a wine pool, used a cannon to cool, dug a gan, and imprisoned a basket, which caused the opposition of the people of the world and even his children, and Yin Shang destroyed the country." ”

"However, everything is unpredictable, the cycle of cause and effect, who knew that thousands of years later, another demon came to Daming."

"On April 17 (May 2) of the twentieth year of Emperor Yuan Shun (1360), Ying Tianfu suddenly thundered and lightning, and a vision fell from the sky, and Guaga landed a baby-——.

The storyteller took a sip of the cup, moistened his throat, and continued: "When this son was young, his eyes were red and his face was hideous, and when he was a baby, he showed a cruel heart, and his parents did not like it, and when he was seven years old, he named him." ”

This is not a storyteller's nonsense, when Zhu Di was just born, because he was busy with the war, Zhu Yuanzhang never had time to name him, and when he was seven years old, he was named Zhu Di.

Ordinary people usually hear about this kind of royal secret, but now when they hear it, they are really interested.

Think about it, why did you Zhu Di choose a name when he was seven years old, this must be something that his parents don't like.

"When he was six years old, because the dogs of the people in the street barked at him twice, he immediately ordered the dogs to be caught, skinned and cramped, and tortured and killed."

"When he was seven years old, he was found peeking at the maid taking a bath, and in a fit of rage, he slashed and killed the maid's family."

"When he was eight years old, he was beaten to death with a rod because he was scolded by Mr. Teach for not being able to retort and falsely accuse him of stealing family property."

Every time the storyteller told an allusion, the people around him booed, and some people in the crowd scolded from time to time: "This son is so vicious at such a young age." ”

"King II, from the heart of the ghost, in order to seek the throne, in the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, this son and his brother went out to play together, called it unprepared, pretended to be not small, pushed the elder brother into the river, his brother because of the infection of the cold, soon died."

The people listened with righteous indignation, and some quietly bowed their heads: "Who is the one who died, and who is the one who died?" ”

"Zhu Biao, shhh, don't say it."

"Sure enough, he killed him." Someone in the crowd said in a trembling voice.

"But everything is not according to his wishes." The storyteller then exclaimed, "The position of the shopkeeper did not reach him in the end. ”

"King II was so angry that he raised an army in spite of the opposition of the people and his family."

"Let's think about it, if this kind of person becomes the shopkeeper, isn't it the same as before, digging into the heart of Bigan, the meat of the cool ministers?"

"Yes." There was a chorus all around.

At this time, the storyteller began to talk about a series of vicious and vicious incidents such as the Yan army's massacre of the city in the Jingjing, and the people listening to it below burst out loud from time to time.

He was talking happily, suddenly.

"The official is here." There was an exclamation from downstairs.

But strange to say, neither the storyteller nor the listener upstairs reacted.

After a while, a team of officials appeared at the door of the teahouse, and someone pointed at it and said sharply: "What are you talking about, don't discuss the affairs of the court?" ”

"Gao Zhutou, no, no, we're listening to King Wu's war."

"When it comes to the absurdity of the king of the Emperor, if you want to dig into the heart of Bigan, do you want to come up and listen to it?"

Gao Zhutou's face did not change, and he shook his head and said: "What's so good about this, people like King Su will not die sooner or later, hmph, you all pay attention to me." With that, he turned around and waved his hand, and walked away, leading people away.
