"It doesn't matter where the letter came from, the important thing is that I intercepted the letter, if I didn't really surrender, how could I risk my life to tell you such an important matter?" Wu Bandao.

Zhang Fei pondered for a moment, and felt that what Wu Ban said seemed to make sense, so he asked, "So, do you really plan to surrender to me?" ”

"Why did I come here if I didn't mean to?" Wu Bandao.

"I wonder about this, your cousin is now leading tens of thousands of troops outside the city of Luocheng, you don't want to help your cousin, but you want to betray the old master, come to submit to me, and make enemies of your cousin, such a thing, no one will believe that you really came to surrender!" Zhang Fei said.

Wu Ban said: "What General Zhang said is not wrong, these are indeed the places where you are worth doubting. But I can tell General Sù unequivocally that I have come to seek refuge in earnest, and that I have not come to be an enemy of my cousin, but to save my cousin from danger and to prevent him from being victimized by traitors. ”

Zhang Fei's brows furrowed even tighter, he couldn't quite understand what Wu Ban meant by this, but he could see from Wu Ban's eyes that this person didn't seem to be lying. So, Zhang Fei asked puzzledly: "How do you say this?" ”

Wu Ban said: "That's a long ......."

"Long story short!" Zhang Fei cut the nail on the head.

So, Wu Ban cleared his throat and concisely told the ins and outs of the matter.

When Wu Ban's voice lagged behind, Zhang Fei squinted at Fa Zheng, as if asking, "Military Division." Is what he says credible? ”

Fa Zheng met Zhang Fei's gaze. also gave Zhang Fei a very firm look. As if to say, "It should be believed." ”

Zhang Fei turned his head, looked at Wu Ban, and thought about it carefully, Wu Ban not only learned of his overall plan, but also intercepted the information sent by Xi Zuo from the city, if Wu Ban really wanted to help Wu Yi deal with himself, then as long as he had a plan, Zhang Fei's action tonight. It's bound to end in failure, so why bother risking your life to come here.

Moreover, the secret letter was obviously missing a corner, and it was very likely that it was torn up by Wu Ban, that is, Wu Ban kept a hand, and if he surrendered Wu Ban, Wu Ban would pull that person out as a gift of surrender. And such an important thing. If Wu Ban really wanted to be his enemy, there was no need to say it.

Based on these two points. Zhang Fei had already chosen to believe Wu Ban's words in his heart, and Fa Zheng on the side also gave a more affirmative answer to Wu Ban's surrender, so what else was there to worry about.

Zhang Fei took a deep breath and said to Wu Ban: "General Wu, if you really want to join me, Zhang is very honored!" ”

After Wu Ban heard Zhang Fei's words, he smiled and said, "I know, you will definitely believe me, but I didn't expect it to be so fast." I thought you would let me help you catch the spies in the city, and then choose to trust me! ”

Zhang Fei said: "General Wu is a temperamental person, if it is really as General Wu just said, then General Wu came to surrender to me, then there is nothing that cannot be explained." General Wu did not hesitate to risk his life to save his cousin, and he rushed to General Wu's affection, which is worthy of Zhang's respect. General Wu, please accept Zhang's worship! ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Fei was about to bow, but was stopped by Wu Ban, and said with a smile: "General Zhang, this can't be helped, even if you want to worship, it should be me to worship......"

Wu Ban bowed respectfully to Zhang Fei, and said eloquently: "The lord is above, please accept Wu Ban's worship!" ”

"Hahaha......" Zhang Fei happily helped Wu Ban up, and said, "Okay, well, today there is another general in our army, if General Wu goes to persuade your cousin to join my army, then Yizhou will be pacified in the near future, and at that time, General Wu will be a great hero." ”

Wu Ban said: "I don't dare to be a hero, but I don't want all the thirty-six members of our Wu family to be destroyed in the hands of a treacherous villain." General Zhang, as I said earlier, since I have come to surrender, I must bring a greeting gift, which is the name of the secret work of the collaborator in the city, and General Zhang only needs to arrest this person and interrogate him to know whether I am lying. ”

Wu Ban stretched out his palm in front of Zhang Fei, and then slowly stretched out his palm, and showed out the corner of the paper held in the palm of his hand, on which were printed with two clear words - "Pang Xi".

When Zhang Fei and Fa Zheng saw this name at the same time, they were all taken aback, even if the two of them never dreamed that the meticulous work of collaborating with the enemy would actually be Guanghan Taishou Pang Xi.

Didn't Pang Xi already surrender to Zhang Fei, and when he chose to surrender, he was very active, and he also swore that he would break with Liu Zhang, his approach made Zhang Fei, Fa Zheng, and even Yan Yan, Leng Bao and others feel very admired for Pang Xi.

However, when Wu Ban showed the names on the paper in his hand, Zhang Fei and Fa Zheng were greatly taken aback, and their mouths were almost closed in surprise.

"How could it be him?" Zhang Fei said with some disbelieving.

Even Fa Zheng shook his head and said: "It's incredible, this result really shocked my eyes, I never thought that he would do such a thing......"

Zhang Fei said: "No matter what, arrest him first, if it is really sure that it was what he did, I will never spare him!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Fei yelled outside the hall: "Someone! ”

Peng Tuo, who had been guarding outside, immediately strode into the hall, clenched his fists and asked, "What do you command?" ”

"Immediately bring people to surround the Taishou Mansion and arrest Pang Taishou here, there must be no mistake!" Zhang Fei said.

Peng Tuo said "snort", and didn't ask why, for him, Zhang Fei's words were orders, as for the reason, he didn't want to know, just obey the order.

Peng Tuo left the hall, ordered the five hundred elites of his subordinates, and led them straight to the Taishou Mansion.

At this moment, Guanghan Taishou Pang Xi was in the study of Taishou Mansion. I saw that his face was full of gloom. Pacing in the study. He looked preoccupied and restless, as if he had encountered some danger.

It has been a whole day since Pang Xi's henchmen were sent out, and it stands to reason that he should be back at this time, but Pang Xi waited for more than two hours, and still didn't see his henchmen return. Moreover, Pang Xi had a very ominous premonition. He always felt like he was about to be out of luck.

Just when Pang Xi was still worried and afraid, there was a sudden noise outside the study, Pang Xi was shocked, so he opened the door and looked out through the crack in the door, but saw a group of fierce people rushing in from the outside, the first person was Zhang Fei's henchman Peng Tuo, and the housekeeper and family in the house couldn't stop it at all.

If you are really worried about anything, Pang Xi hurriedly closed the door, he thought to himself. Peng Tuo must have come to arrest himself this time. It must be that the matter has been revealed, what can I do?

When he was in a hurry, Pang Xi suddenly saw a back window, and he wanted to jump out of the window to escape, but as soon as he came to the window, the door was kicked open, and Peng Tuo appeared at the door of the room with a group of people.

Peng Tuo saw that Pang Xi had opened the window and wanted to run away, so he immediately jumped over with an arrow and shouted, "Where to go!" ”

He stretched out his big hand, the speed was extremely fast, like a bolt of lightning, and his five fingers directly grabbed Pang Xi, who was lying on the window and was about to jump out of the window to escape, and with a little force, he pulled Pang Xi's whole person back and fell heavily to the ground.

"Ouch......" Pang Xi screamed, and before he could react, his chest had been firmly pressed by Peng Tuo's knees, and he was about to lose his breath.

Peng Tuo's strength was not too great, but Pang Xi was old and his body was relatively weak, so he couldn't withstand Peng Tuo's toss like this, his knee was firmly pressed on Pang Xi's chest, and with a "swish" of his right hand, he pulled out the steel knife tied to his waist and put it directly on Pang Xi's neck.

Pang Xi was so pressured by Peng that he couldn't breathe, his face was flushed, and he used all his strength to say to Peng Tuo: "I'm not running, can you stop pressing me so hard, I can't breathe......"

Peng Tuo realized that his exertion was a bit too much for such a weak person, and hurriedly withdrew some of his strength, but his knees were still pressed against Pang Xi's chest.

"Ahem, cough, cough, ......"

Pang Xi took a hard breath, if it was a little later, he would definitely faint due to the lack of oxygen in his brain, but when he greedily inhaled the air, it was so violent that he choked on himself and let out a series of coughing sounds.

Peng Tuo didn't talk nonsense, and shouted directly at the soldiers who followed in: "Take him away!" ”

The soldiers pulled Pang Xi up after dividing five by two, and then followed Peng Tuo and took Pang Xi to the hall of the Zhuangyuan where Zhang Fei was.

"Get on your knees!" Peng Tuo personally took Pang Xi into the hall, yelled at Pang Xi, and then kicked Pang Xi's leg in the crook.

Pang Xi stumbled and fell to the ground, and due to Peng Tuo's excessive force and his own inertia, Pang Xi actually fell into a dog gnawing mud.

"Pang Xi! Are you guilty? Zhang Fei saw that Pang Xi was brought over, so he reprimanded loudly.

Pang Xi's mouth was full of blood, and half of his front teeth were knocked out, as soon as he raised his head, he didn't care about shouting, so he kowtowed to Zhang Fei again and again: "The lord spares his life, the lord spares his life, I won't dare next time, and please ask the lord to spare my life for the sake of my sacrifice of the city and surrender......

"You beg for mercy so much, do you know what crime you have committed?" Zhang Fei said.

Pang Xi nodded again and again and said, "I know, I know." I have foreign enemies inside and out, and I am a traitor for glory......"

Zhang Fei said: "It seems that you are like Spiegel in your heart. You sue me, why did you do this? Is there something I can't do with you? ”

Pang Xi shook his head vigorously and said, "No, no, there is no place for the lord to be against me, it is because I can't live with the lord." As soon as I heard that Liu Zhang sent 50,000 troops to attack the city, the vanguard was Wu Yi, and Zhang Ren was responsible for leading the army, these two people were powerful figures in the Sichuan army, and the strength was also several times that of our army, plus the lord let go of more than 10,000 troops, I was afraid for a while, afraid that the city was breached, and I would be implicated, so I made this decision, I wanted to clear up my relationship first, so as not to be killed as a thief when the time comes......"

Zhang Fei heard Pang Xi's reason for saying that it was really ridiculous, Pang Xi was two-faced and three-stabbed, and he could be regarded as a master when he saw the ability of the wind to steer the rudder.

Fortunately, Pang Xi's letter was intercepted by Wu Ban, and Wu Ban chose to come and surrender, avoiding the defeat that Zhang Fei would face, otherwise, the consequences were really unimaginable.

"Pang Taishou, you ...... You disappointed the lord too much, the lord still had high hopes for you, but I didn't expect you to ...... You're ...... Alas! Fa Zheng stopped talking halfway through, probably disappointed with what Pang Xi had done.

"Thanks to Leng Bao and strongly recommended you, I didn't expect you to be so greedy for life and afraid of death...... Zhang Fei shook his head helplessly and said, "Fortunately, I found it in time, so that you haven't made any big mistakes, otherwise, I will definitely not spare you." Now that you're in a pinch, you shouldn't have done something like this. You're too guarded, it's okay not to be. ”

"Lord, I shouldn't be too guarded, but I just ask the lord to spare me from death, even if I am a cow and a horse in the future, I am grateful." Pang Xi said.

Zhang Fei was really disappointed in Pang Xi, seeing Pang Xi, who was now kneeling in front of him and greedy for life and afraid of death, was completely different from what he had seen before, it seemed that he was really blind.

"Now that the war is coming, if I kill you, it will definitely cause a panic, I won't kill you first, I will lock you up first, and you yourself will think about it in prison, whether what you are doing is right or not. When the war is over, I will send you down again! Zhang Fei said.

Pang Xi hurriedly bowed: "Thank you for the grace of the lord not to kill, thank you for the lord's ......"

Zhang Fei hurriedly interrupted Pang Xi's words and said, "I didn't say that I wouldn't kill you, I just said that I won't kill you for the time being." ”

After Pang Xi heard this, his psychological face suddenly became cold for most of the time, and the whole person was paralyzed on the ground, and he didn't know what to say.

"Pengtuo!" Zhang Fei glanced at Peng Tuo, who was behind Pang Xi.

"The last general!" Peng Tuodao.

Zhang Fei instructed: "Take Pang Xi down and lock him in a cell, no one can visit him without my order." ”

"Whoa!"

Peng Tuo walked to Pang Xi's side and said with a smile: "Let's go, Pang Taishou!" ”

Pang Xi didn't move, as if he hadn't heard Peng Tuo's words, indifferent.

Seeing this, Peng Tuo directly lifted Pang Xi up, and carried Pang Xi out of the hall like a chicken.

In the hall, calm was restored once again.

At this time, Zhang Fei walked in front of Wu Ban and bowed respectfully: "Thanks to you this time, otherwise, I don't know what kind of moth will be made......

Wu Ban said: "The lord doesn't have to be so polite, as long as the lord promises me not to hurt my cousin." ”

"This is nature. General Wu is also a general, I have the heart to surrender him, but unfortunately there has been no way, I don't know if you can go for me to persuade General Wu to surrender? Zhang Fei said.

Wu Ban shook his head and said, "If you want to persuade my cousin to surrender, it is simply impossible, if you can persuade him to surrender, he would have been persuaded by me a long time ago, why should I come here?" ”

"What then?" Zhang Fei said.

"Don't worry about it, lord. If you want my cousin to submit to the lord, as long as the lord can convince my cousin. Wu Bandao.

Zhang Fei immediately bowed his hand and said: "Please also ask General Wu to guide the maze......"

Wu Ban said: "Actually, there is no other way, but to capture my cousin, and if I go to persuade him with good words, maybe I can make my cousin change his mind." ”

Zhang Fei said: "Tonight is just an opportunity, I will go and gather the army, carry out a sneak attack in the evening, kill Wu Yi by surprise, and strive to capture Wu Yi in a battle!" When the time comes, General Lao Wu will personally come forward to persuade General Wu Yi to submit to my command. ”

Wu Ban said: "If the lord can really arrest my cousin, I will naturally spare no effort to persuade my cousin to surrender." ”

Zhang Fei's heart was full of hope, and then said to Fa Zheng: "Military advisor, inform the whole army that in a battle tonight, Wu Yi must be captured." (To be continued......)
