Chapter 337: Annihilation (10)
Xun Lin's father and the scholar would then get up and go to see Han Ju. Han Ju's face was pale, his body was extremely weak, and he couldn't even breathe; Even every few words had to be stopped to suppress the great pain.
He said: "Zhao Shuo promised Jian Ru to pass on his last words to Yushu (this matter is no longer a secret), and he had a demon dream before setting out on the expedition, dreaming that he would die in this war. Now I'm afraid it's time to put your dream into practice! ”
The two brought Han Ju's words back, and the commanders present all lowered their heads and were silent, as if Zhao Shuo was no longer alive at this time.
Di Envoy was pacing around in another tent at this time, he knew that whatever choice the Jin generals made, it must be the most unfavorable for Chidi, and he could also imagine how fierce the argument on the scene would be, and even thought that Yu Shu had been scared by the Jin army—otherwise he would not have sent himself rashly to beg for a truce.
After a few moments, the priest summoned him, handed him a fine brocade box, and told him that the Jin people's answer was inside. The envoy nodded abruptly, as if he already knew what was in the box, and turned away with the box.
Zhao Shuo was captured when he was wounded in many places and exhausted, and his guards died not a single one, and even if he had the slightest strength to commit suicide, he would not be captured.
After destroying Zhao Shuo's guards, the Chidi soldiers fought for this priceless trophy, and the soldiers attacked their comrades without a trace of emotion, as if they were fighting against the enemy; As a result, many of those who survived under the sword of the Jin people died under the sword of their own people.
Zhao Shuo was cared to Yu Shu, who finally saw the murderer of his son, and Zhao Shuo also saw the culprit who killed Bo Ji.
Both of them behaved calmly, and Zhao Shuo raised his chin at the Chidi sergeant who had grabbed him, and then said to Yushu: "Yushu, I have committed many more crimes than you know—these people have killed many of their own companions in order to fight for me. You can put the lives of those men in my account."
He was furious and had the sergeants executed without interrogation. He was willing to do so, so that he could save a large amount of money.
Yu Shu invited Zhao Shuo into the Chinese military tent, and then kept bragging about his martial arts, while Zhao Shuo listened patiently with a disdainful smile. In the end, either to test Zhao Shuo, or for other purposes, Yu Shu actually proposed a proposal for peace.
Zhao Shuo looked at the rope on his body and said, "Are you going to make peace with a prisoner of war?" You're probably lying, aren't you? You're either tying yourself up or untying me. ”
Yu Shu immediately loosened the tie for him, and arranged a banquet, and Zhao Shuo ate and drank as if no one was around. When he had eaten and drunk enough, he stood up and said, "Old thief, I will tell you what I think now." With that, he plunged his finger into the wound in his abdomen, tore it open with all his might, pulled out all his internal organs, and threw it on his face.
Zhao Shuo shouted: "Your son Jian Ru asked me to tell you: 'Don't let Zhao Shuo go!'" And the Jin people never reconcile with their enemies, and your time of death is coming! Your fate will be ten times worse than mine! ”
His madness was like that of a wild beast, and he soon died.
The sudden change made Yu Shu frightened, he couldn't stand the tragic scene and bloody breath, and only felt a hot current rush from the bottom of his stomach to his throat.
Yu Shu rushed out of the big tent, and the murderous butcher actually held on to a wooden pole and vomited. The eye injury began to hurt sharply again, and he gritted his teeth and shivered. At this moment, the messenger came back to his life, and he handed the box given to him by the Shihui and handed it to Yu Shu and said, "The Jin people say that the answer is here. ”
Yu Shu opened the brocade box, his hand shook suddenly, and the box fell to the ground, and a hideous head rolled out of it. The Jin people conveyed the same message to Chidi through different approaches: "Only seek a war, never compromise!" ”
As if mad, he drew his sword and stabbed the messenger whom he had personally appointed and who would not harm even the enemy, until he was exhausted. The Chidi all looked at him silently, no one dissuaded him, and their faces were full of disdain; All of Yushu's power and majesty collapsed at this moment.
After sending off the Chidi envoys, Xun Lin's father ordered Zhao Yingqi to temporarily lead the army, and then laid out tomorrow's battle plan; He also drew some troops from the two armies to strengthen the lower army. After the meeting was dismissed, the generals were busy with various preparations, they pacified the soldiers, dropped the reserves to replenish the troops, and asked the soldiers to step up the repair of damaged chariots and weapons, and kept running and shuttling for tomorrow's decisive battle.
At the back of Chidi's camp, Luan Shu brought the team of various characters to a high ground. He counted the number of people, including more than 2,000 Jin and Rong coalition troops, more than 1,000 liberated slaves, and some Chidi prisoners; The booty (cattle and horses, grain and grass, clothing, weapons) was very rich.
Luan Shu summoned his subordinates and Gongsun Su to discuss the next step. Gongsun Su said: "Forty miles to the east is the entrance to Fukou, through which the Chidi army and the convoy will pass. Chidi built a fortress at the mouth of the city, which contained a large amount of military rations and supplies, many slaves and miscellaneous servants, but the defenders were only 1,000 people. If we can take the fortress, we will cut off the army from the Lu Kingdom; And even if we can't hold it, we can destroy the fortifications, burn the supplies, and prevent the enemy from retreating. ”
Luan Shu took this suggestion, and he had a small squad lead the wounded soldiers and the reluctant and frail slaves and baggage back to the Jin camp through a difficult but safe curve, and then ordered the rest of the men to march immediately to the fortress with only two days' rations each.
