For a city with only more than 20 servants, more than 80 family members, and more than 200 young and strong defenders, it would not be too easy for Li Bao and his pro-army team to sneak attack it in the middle of the night.

He and the soldiers of the pro-army team were familiar with the climbing ropes, and easily climbed the city wall, and more than 50 pro-soldiers went all the way to the direction of the city tower, and after encountering the patrol team and cutting down a few people, the others were so frightened that they dropped their weapons and collapsed to the ground.

They fought all the way to the city tower and encountered a little decent resistance, but after Li Bao and the others captured and killed the leading officials, the young men who had been recruited for those snacks dispersed in a hurry.

The city gate was opened by Li Bao's personal soldiers, and Zhao Junsheng rushed into the city with the Youzhou army, and rushed to the Taishou Mansion without hindrance.

Zhao Junsheng stopped in front of the Taishou Mansion and ordered Bai Jinguang and Fan Guiting: "Bai Jinguang will take people to take over the treasury and armory, and Fan Guiting will take people to fight the county government!" Send people to take over the four gates respectively, send one to clear the patrol team on the street, and kill the people who are armed with weapons and resist! ”

The teams were sent out one by one, and Zhao Junsheng took Li Bao and a large number of soldiers and horses to break open the gate of the Taishou Mansion and rushed into the mansion.

"Go and escort Taishou Li Fu over, you can kill those who resist, don't rush into Li Fu's family, and gather them in the backyard!" Zhao Junsheng commanded Li Bao.

"Yes!"

The soldiers and generals of Youzhou quickly controlled the Taishou Mansion, three steps and one post in the house, five steps and one sentry, the soldiers and generals all held torches, illuminating the entire Taishou Mansion brightly, and the guards were extremely strict, and the maids and servants of the family were all driven together and gathered, and Li Fu's family members were frightened one by one, one by one, wearing obscene clothes, trembling, and panicking.

Zhao Junsheng came to the lobby of the Taishou Mansion, the lobby was very clean, tidy and bright, he came to the desk and picked up the official documents stacked on it and flipped through them, and looked at them with a brush.

Soon, Taishou Li Fu was brought up, and Li Bao reported: "General, Li Taishou is here!" ”

Zhao Junsheng held the waist knife and turned to look at Li Fu.

Li Fu waved his hand: "The prisoner under the stairs has seen the general!" ”

Zhao Junsheng said: "I heard that Li Taishou did some practical things for the people during his time as an official in Jiyang County, unlike other officials who are insatiable, General Ben still appreciates it, are you willing to surrender?" ”

"I don't want to!" Li Fu spit out two words with a resolute face.

Zhao Junsheng was stunned for a moment, "Hey, you're quite simple, aren't you afraid that General Ben will cut you down with a knife?" ”

Li Fuyi was righteous: "I am a minister of the Yan Kingdom, how can I turn to the barbarians?" Whether the general wants to kill Li or not is a general's business, is there a difference between me being afraid and not being afraid? ”

Zhao Junsheng's mouth smacked: "Li Taishou really has some integrity, but I am very responsible to tell you that I am a Han, not a barbarian!" There must be a difference between you being afraid and not being afraid, if you are afraid, you will surrender to me, and I can spare you from death and let you continue to be an official; If you are not afraid, then I may really cut you with a knife, you must understand that human life is only once, once lost, what glory and wealth, what high-ranking officials, ambitions and ambitions are all in vain, in the face of life and death, there is no difference between the emperor and the beggar! ”

"Hmph, the general wants to threaten me Li Fu with death, the general miscalculated, needless to say, sooner or later he will be hit by this knife, please do it!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded and said: "Very good, since Li Taishou is not afraid of death, then General Ben will fulfill you and escort you to the outside of the city to behead you on a certain day, so that everyone in the world will know that you are martyred for the crumbling decay and decline of the Yan Kingdom!" Come on, take Li Taishou down and lock him up, serve him with good wine and meat, don't let him be a starving ghost! ”

The expression on Li Fu's face was extremely exciting, and several personal soldiers came over and escorted him away.

Zhao Junsheng walked to the backyard, and Li Fu's family and children, and even his mother were all gathered in the middle of the courtyard, surrounded by soldiers and generals who were guarding them.

The tooth master in charge of this place saw Zhao Junsheng coming over, stepped forward and hugged his fists and said, "General, Li Fu's mother, family and children are all here!" ”

Zhao Junsheng nodded, swept his eyes, walked to an old woman, hugged his fists and bowed, and said: "Zhao Junsheng, the general of Pingbei in the Lower Wei State and the assassin of Youzhou, has seen the old lady and the ladies, which has frightened you!" The two armies are facing each other and the camps are different, this is really a helpless move, and I will forgive the old lady and all the ladies! ”

Li Fu's mother saw that Zhao Junsheng and his generals were quite polite, her face was a little better, and asked, "The general is polite, I don't know what the general did with my child?" And what are you going to do with us, the old and weak, women and children? ”

Zhao Junsheng said: "I heard that Li Taishou is quite an official and a talent, and I wanted him to be demoted, but he refused, so I had to lock him up." As for how to deal with the old lady, ladies and young ladies of the son, it depends on Li Taishou's attitude, if Li Taishou is willing to lower me, I will naturally treat the old lady as my own biological mother, if Li Taishou is really unwilling to surrender, he can only fulfill his integrity! Li Taishou and I have no selfish grudges and hatred, and each is its own master, naturally can not hurt his family, after Li Taishou died, the old lady, the ladies and the young lady can be acquitted, but can no longer live in the Taishou Mansion, the gold and silver here are soft and valuable, you can take them all away, and there will be no difficulty in the next! Please stay here for the time being within three days, and you will be free to visit Li Taishou, and after three days, everything depends on Li Taishou's decision! I've bothered you late at night, so I'm sorry for the next and I'm retiring! ”

After Zhao Junsheng left, Li Fu's second lady said to the old woman: "Mother, this Zhao envoy is polite and courteous, distinguishes between public and private, and is not implicated, not like those barbarian generals of Xianbei people, he looks very good at talking, even if the husband surrenders him, it is not bad!" ”

The old woman scolded, "What do you know? My son is a minister of the Yan country, how can one party surrender to another country if he is too guarded? Won't it make the world laugh when it spreads? How will I behave in the future? How do I behave in my Li family? ”

The third lady said, "My mother, why are you so old and stubborn? If you don't surrender, you will have to be killed, and when the time comes, everyone will die, and the common people will admire one or two at most, what good can it be? That's your own son, is fate or reputation important? ”

Li Fu's eldest son said: "Yes, grandma, Feng Hong is cruel and unkind, he can kill all his more than 100 own nephews, such a cruel king is unique in ancient times, he is still so cruel to his relatives, how good can he be to other ministers?" My father's allegiance to such a monarch is not worth it! ”

The second prince shook his fan and said: "It is indeed inappropriate to let my father surrender to Wei, but if you don't surrender to Wei, only surrender to Zhao Yuanjun, there is no problem, today from Zhao Zhijun's words and deeds, he should be a benevolent, courteous, righteous person, treat the enemy and his family with a forgiving heart, this is the style that only the ancient sages have!" Grandma, my father has always listened to you, why don't you go and talk to your father? ”

The eldest lady immediately said: "Mother, I think the second child is right, although Zhao Yuanjun has promised not to implicate us old and weak women and children, but if there is no husband, how can we live as a family?" He is the husband of our sisters, the father of the children, your son, and he can't die! ”

The old woman stomped her feet on crutches: "Don't make any noise, let's talk about it tomorrow, let's go back and rest!" ”

After dawn, Yao Zhao, the general of the Yan army besieging Luming Mountain, received the news that Pinggang City was attacked and broken by the Wei army last night.

Yao Zhao's first reaction was that it was over, the retreat was cut off, and the Wei army that captured Pinggang City would be killed after they had eaten and drunk, and then Hua Mulan on the mountain would lead the troops to rush down, and his thousands of men and horses would definitely be defeated.

Yao Zhao immediately threw down the dishes and chopsticks and ordered: "The whole army assembles and retreats!" ”

The thousands of men and horses of the Yan army didn't know what was going on, and many of them were gathered by the sound of horns before they finished breakfast, and left quickly under the command of Yao Zhao.

After running for a while, Huang Fuyan saw that he was taking the wrong way, and immediately caught up with Yao Zhao and asked, "General, why did you change your course?" Aren't you going back to Yangwu City? ”

"To return to Yangwu City, we have to pass through Pinggang, how about we be killed by the Wei army in Pinggang City in the past? Or take the path to Shimengou, we have a bloody encounter here in Mulan, and we have to find a way to get some interest back from Hedoluo, otherwise how to explain to the imperial court? ”

Huangfu Yan immediately patted his ass: "The general is smart!" ”

When Zhao Junsheng rushed to Luming Mountain with his men and horses, Hua Mulan was coming down from the mountain with the remaining soldiers of the right wing.

"Brother Junsheng, several groups of messengers we sent out for help have been intercepted and killed, how did you know that we were trapped here?" Mulan asked with a smile, she looked very tired and haggard, and the pressure on her shoulders was too great these days.

Zhao Junsheng took her hand and said, "I left Lao Lu nearby before I led the troops away, just to prevent you from bringing me the news in time if something happens!" Why did you last so long? ”

Hua Mulan leaned on Zhao Junsheng is body, "Because I know that you will definitely bring troops to save me, I have always believed it!" When you lead the troops to defeat Fancheng but can't wait for the messenger I sent, you will definitely worry about whether something is wrong, you will send someone over, I just didn't expect you to send Lao Lu to my side all the time! Brother Junsheng, thank you! ”

"Silly girl!"

Hua Mulan fell asleep leaning on Zhao Junsheng, and slept from morning until dark before waking up.

"Awake?" Zhao Junsheng asked with a smile, "I guess you should be waking up soon, so I asked Li Bao to call someone to prepare the meal, and we will go back to Pinggang after eating!" ”

Hua Mulan got up from Zhao Junsheng's arms, "Brother Junsheng······ You've been sitting like this all day? ”

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "I'm afraid of waking you up, I'm fine, I've been practicing, my legs are not numb, and my waist is not sore."
