Chapter 720: Yuwen Wuji
"The Yuwen family's army is attacking?"
When Su Peng heard the news, he was slightly shocked in his heart.
Su Peng speculated on the Yuwen family's strategy, although he knew that the Yuwen family wanted to take back Liaocheng, but after discussing it with Li Mu and others, they all thought that it was unlikely that the Yuwen family would really send troops to attack Liaocheng.
The attack on Liaocheng is to officially launch the Liangzhou army where Su Peng is located, maybe the demon army of Yuncheng will be added, the Yuwen family does not have this strength, but it is possible for the other party to release the plague.
But the result was a bit beyond expectations, and the Yuwen family finally chose to raise troops.
Su Peng frowned, constantly speculating about the intentions of the Yuwen family.
"Report ......!"
At this time, another messenger rode in on a fast horse, and soon, the messenger rode his horse to Su Peng, then turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee in front of Su Peng, and said: "The latest military situation reported by General Zhu Lie, the three armies of the Yuwen family that attacked from Xuancheng, Peicheng, and Tianshui County each stopped forty miles away from General Zhu Lie's headquarters, and it seems that they are all encamped. ”
"Encamped?"
Su Peng listened, and his brows furrowed again.
When he heard about the emergency military situation just now, he thought that the Yuwen family couldn't hold it back and wanted to raid Liaocheng with lightning, but listening to the current information, those people from the Yuwen family actually camped forty miles away from Zhu Lie's department, which made Su Peng a little surprised.
If the Yuwen family really wanted to use force, it would be good to call directly, why would they act like this now, it is completely unreasonable.
"Probe!"
Su Peng said to the messenger.
The messenger was ordered to retreat, and at this time. A few more horses came from outside the city.
Su Peng looked at the knight on the horse, but it was Sun Yiyu, who led a few people into the city. I'm coming in my own direction.
Sun Yiyu quickly rode his horse to Su Peng's side, he jumped off the horse, and said to Su Peng: "Su Peng, do you know the news that the Yuwen family's army is stationed not far from Liaocheng?" ”
When Su Peng heard this, he was a little surprised, and said to Sun Yiyu: "I also just got the military information, and Brother Sun has just arrived." How do you feel like the news is faster than I know? ”
"I'm a different source of information...... Shi Weixin of Dakong Temple, sent a letter to me, and I learned about the Yuwen family. In his letter, he mentioned a matter that he asked me to come to you for consultation. Sun Yiyu said as he spoke, and he took out a letter from his arms. gave it to Su Peng.
"Shi Weixin's letter to me?" Su Peng heard this. Somewhat surprised, he looked at the envelope in Sun Yiyu's hand and said to Sun Yiyu: "How does Shi Weixin know the movements of the Yuwen family?" This letter wasn't sent by someone from the Yuwen family, right? Have you ever checked that you haven't soaked in poison or anything? ”
"Don't worry, this letter is for me to pass on to you, and it says that I will read it first, and if you want to poison me, you will poison me first. I checked the whole letter and there were no problems. ”
Sun Yiyu said. He handed the letter forward again.
Su Peng took the letter with some suspicion, opened it and read it.
After reading it. Su Peng's face showed a look of surprise again.
"The Yuwen family wants to come and negotiate with me to talk about the ownership of Liaocheng?"
Su Peng looked at it, raised his head and said to Sun Yiyu.
"Well, that's what it means...... Today they are going to send troops, but they will not use force, and they also mentioned in the letter, probably using military oppression as a bargaining chip, and at the same time deterring you and protecting the safety of those they come to negotiate. ”
Sun Yiyu nodded and said to Su Peng.
Su Peng listened, looked at the letter again, and only looked up after a while and said: "This matter can be discussed, looking at the meaning of this letter, the Yuwen family doesn't seem to want to use force head-on, but wants to solve the problem of Liaocheng in other ways...... If I can avoid fighting, that's the best, and I'm not intolerant of people, they can come if they want, as long as they don't do anything out of the ordinary, I guarantee their safety. ”
"That's the best...... Personally, I don't want you to use swords, so according to what was said in the letter, Su Peng, you can send a person to the army garrison in the direction of Peicheng of the Yuwen family, and bring the people of the Yuwen family to Liaocheng to negotiate here. ”
Su Peng nodded, he looked back, and saw that Li Mu was still helping to boil medicine nearby, he thought about it and shouted in Li Mu's direction: "Brother Li!" ”
Hearing this, Li Mu put down the matter in his hand, walked over quickly, and said to Su Peng: "Lord Sacrificial Wine, what's the matter?" ”
"Take a look at this." Su Peng handed Shi Weixin's letter to Li Mu to read.
Li Mu looked at it again, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"The Yuwen family doesn't want to make a big move, they want to negotiate peace? I think what I wrote in the letter is quite sincere. Li Mu took the letter and said to Su Peng: "This letter, written quite sincerely, did not say anything about the vain, nor was it a provocation, but just talked about the big sword soldiers, for the Yuwen family, for you, for the wine lord, and for the people of Yuzhou, Liangzhou, it is not a good thing, so I want to solve it in another way, I think this letter still has some truth." ”
Su Peng nodded and said, "I feel the same way...... The letter said that the Yuwen family and Shi Weixin of the Dakong Temple were ready to come to Liaocheng to negotiate with us, and as long as someone informed, their people would come...... Brother Li, do you dare to go to Yuwen's house and invite them? ”
"What's not to dare to do." When Li Mu heard this, he laughed and said, "Now that our strength is stronger than the Yuwen family, if they dare to touch me, they will beat him, I will go to the Yuwen family and find their people!" ”
"I'm tired of Brother Li!" Su Peng nodded and said to Li Mu, as he spoke, he found a table for distributing medicine for the treatment of the plague, asked the soldiers below to find a pen and paper, quickly wrote a letter, and handed it to Li Mu, Li Mu took the letter, said goodbye to Su Peng, rode a fast horse, and went in the direction of Peicheng.
Su Peng and Sun Yiyu were in the city lord's mansion that had been cleaned up in Liaocheng, waiting for the people of the Yuwen family to come.
More than three hours later, Li Mu rushed back from the Yuwen family's station, and at the same time, there were seven other people who came back.
Among the seven people, four were sturdy and seemed to be master bodyguards, while the other two, one was a white-bearded old man with a strong body, and the other was a young man with a thin body, who was only about eighteen or nineteen years old.
The last remaining person is Shi Weixin of the Great Empty Temple.
These seven people, after entering Liaocheng, went straight to the mansion of the lord of Liaocheng, and they were the people who came to negotiate with the Yuwen family.
Soon, Su Peng saw these seven people in the City Lord's Mansion.
"This is the Liangzhou Chiqi Dao Great Sacrifice Wine, Su Peng." Li Mu introduced the seven people to Su Peng and said.
The people of the Yuwen family, the four sturdy masters are bodyguard-like figures, and they don't speak, the people who make their real decisions seem to be headed by the sturdy white-bearded old man, I saw this sturdy white-bearded old man take a step forward and said to Su Peng: "I heard that the sacrificial wine lord is young and promising, and it is better to meet when I see it today, and it is better to meet him, and it is really a hero out of a young man...... The old man Yuwen was injured, and he took his nephew Yuwen Wuji, and he saw the sacrificial wine lord! ”
"Well said." Su Peng saw that the other party said politely, and he was not arrogant, and replied to him with a courtesy that matched his identity.
After returning the salute, Su Peng stared at the thin and thin young man beside Yuwen Injury, and said, "You are Yuwen Wuji?" I've been looking up to it for a long time. ”
Yuwen was a little surprised when he heard this, and said to Su Peng: "The little nephew Yuwen Wuji has always been in poor health, he has been studying in the clan, and he has never stepped out of Yuzhou, where did the priest hear my nephew's name?" ”
"Hehe......" Su Peng smiled slightly when he heard this, and said to Yuwen: "I entered Liaocheng, and inadvertently found a secret grid in the city lord's mansion, which hid a few letters written to Yuwen Wuji, the former city lord of Liaocheng, and it mentioned Ling nephew, which has three strategies to get rid of me Su Peng and occupy Liangzhou, I think that the best policy is made by Ling nephew Yuwen Wuji, after reading it, I unconsciously feel cold and sweaty on my back, and I can treat millions of people in Liangzhou as dogs, and occupy Liangzhou with the law of plague, which is really a good calculation, I dare not remember my nephew's name. ”
When Yuwen heard this, his body was shocked.
What Su Peng said, Yuwen also knew that this was also an extremely confidential matter in Yuwen's family, because the stakes were so important that it would not be leaked, but at this time, Su Peng knew about it.
Su Peng's words were conclusive, and Yu Wensheng also subconsciously thought that there was really such a letter in Su Peng's hand.
Yuwen couldn't help but look at Yuwen Wuji beside him, as if he wanted to see how the thin and thin young man beside him was reacting.
Beside him, Yuwen Wuji, who was extremely thin, listened to Su Peng's words, and in those seemingly calm eyes, a light suddenly burst out that made people unable to look at it directly.
This young man, who was so thin and weak that he seemed to be able to see the blood vessels below directly through his pale skin, stared at Su Peng, and said, "I didn't expect this...... Mr. Su, you actually noticed me...... Mr. Su, I have been following you for a long time, the newly rising figures on the rivers and lakes, I have browsed the information one by one, Mr. Su, you are like a strange peak, suddenly rising, I have always admired you very much, today can be mentioned by Mr. Su, Yuwen Wuji, it is really an honor. ”
"Where, I can't afford it, I'm afraid that you will be inspired again one day and come up with something good against me." When Su Peng heard this, a sneer appeared on his face, and he said to Yuwen Wuji.
Su Peng's words made Shi Weixin, who came with Yuwen Wuji, frown slightly.
He didn't quite believe what Sun Yiyu said, the Yuwen family's release of the plague, and he had always suspected Sun Yiyu's intelligence source, but now listening to Su Peng say this, he had already guessed that Sun Yiyu's intelligence came from Su Peng.
Shi Weixin's face was expressionless, but he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, blaming Sun Yiyu for concealing the source of information.
He looked at Su Peng and said to Su Peng: "Su Peng, people from the Yuwen family came today with sincerity, please don't deliberately target them, it's better to sit down and talk about things." ”
Su Peng listened, and didn't continue to question Yuwen Wuji, just nodded and said, "I'm also very sincere, come on, let's talk about business." With a wave of his hand, he asked a few people to walk over there to negotiate.
Su Peng mentioned Yuwen Wuji's matter, not because he didn't want peace talks to spoil the atmosphere, but out of other considerations...... (To be continued......)
