"Okay. Okay!" Zhang Doujian waved his hand impatiently: "Anyway, I'll leave this matter to you. If you can't handle this little thing well, don't come back to see me alive!" Prison, just watch! If you can't even do this, we will cut off the head ourselves without you doing anything." The guard captain stretched out his hand and chopped lightly on his neck: "Outside. It's windy. I've prepared some food and drinks inside. Why don't you go in first and wait a while? I'll keep an eye on you." Hearing what his subordinates said, Zhang Dujian felt that the wind on the tower was indeed quite strong. He instinctively shrank his neck and nodded, with a smile on his face: "Then I'll leave this place to you!" Under the city tower, the prisoners had been driven to the west gate by more than a hundred guards. Maybe they were hungry. Due to their stomachache for a few days, everyone had little strength and their movements were slow, but there was no fighting. There are two gates at the west gate of Xiuzhou City. The outside is an urn. The inner gate is half open, but the outer gate is tightly closed. "Why isn't the city gate outside open?" Zhong Zhe'an asked the soldiers at the city gate with some fear. . "The outer city gate? There is a war now, how can you open it casually?" The soldier replied: "If both gates are opened and the thieves attack, and you respond from the inside to the outside, wouldn't this Xiuzhou City be finished? "The inside should be the same as the outside?" Zhong Zhe'an smiled bitterly: "Master, you have eaten a few bowls of porridge in the past few days, and you are almost exhausted from walking. Are you still fighting?" "I don't care, this is the military order of the general." "The soldier replied with dignity: "The door outside will be opened after you all go in! Don't wait any longer, go in quickly!" Zhong Zhe'an smiled bitterly and held on. The wall walked toward the inside. Maybe it was because of the earthworms and bones. He felt a little more strength in his body, but the hungry feeling in his stomach became more obvious. He had just taken two steps, and a ray of sunshine The light shines on his face from outside. Zhong Zhe'an suddenly felt his eyes going dark. The soles of his feet softened and he fell to his knees on the ground. "Brother, what's wrong!" Zhong Zhe'an felt a big hand holding his ribs, and he turned around. I saw a middle-aged man looking at me with concern. He smiled bitterly: "That's funny. Just now the bright light shone on my face, and I felt dizzy and the soles of my feet went weak." "Brother, you are really hungry. You can't see the light of day if you are weak!" The middle-aged man sighed and pulled out of his arms. He carefully took out a cloth bag and opened it. Inside was a small piece of cooking cake. He brought it to Zhong Zhe'an: "Come on, brother, eat it quickly and put it on the table!" "How can that be done!" Zhong Zhe'an hurriedly said He refused, of course he knew the value of this small piece of cooking cake here, and it was obvious that the other party was starving and stayed here for emergencies. "What's wrong? We'll be leaving the city soon. How can we not get a bite to eat?" The middle-aged man smiled and said, "If you don't like it, just give it back to me when the time comes. We can make an agreement first." Now, I have to pay back ten pieces of cake!" Looking at the other party's warm smile, Zhong Zhe'an's eyes were moist. He nodded, took the cake and stuffed it into his mouth. He almost didn't feel the existence of the cake, his tongue and teeth. He instinctively chewed it up and swallowed it. After a while, Zhong Zhe'an felt some strength in his body. He stood up, cupped his fists and said, "I won't thank you for your kindness. My surname is Zhe'an. I am from Qingyuan County. How dare you Ask the eldest brother Gao for his name! " "I am also from Qingyuan County, my name is Zheng Yuanzhi!" The middle-aged man sighed: "It is really the blessing of my ancestors that I can survive this time. I will stay with my mother-in-law and children honestly after I return. I am determined not to touch this matter of beheading people again!" Zhong Zhe'an nodded in sympathy, and the two of them supported each other and walked into the urn city. At this time, there were still many prisoners who had not come in, so the two of them found a place to stay. He sat down by the wall and talked about farming in the countryside, his heart full of longing for the future life. As time went by, more and more people came in, crowding the small urn city. Zhong Zhe'an and Zheng Yuanzhi had to press closer. They looked at the inner gate impatiently. , the half-open door has not been closed yet, which means that the prisoners have not fully entered yet, and naturally the gate of the Wengcheng outside will not be opened. "Time flies so slowly, why hasn't the door been closed yet?" Zhong Zhe'an said with a wry smile. "Yes!" Zheng Yuanzhi nodded: "No one has come in yet!" "Hey, Brother Zheng, there are so many of us, but there are far fewer officers and soldiers, but why are we the ones who are familiar with each other?" Zheng Yuanzhi scratched He scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Brother, you asked the wrong person. If I knew, wouldn't he be the custodian and supervisor among the officers and soldiers?" "Yes!" Zhong Zhe'an nodded, and at this time the inner city gate finally slowly opened. When it was closed, the people in Wengcheng realized thatThere was a burst of cheers, and expectant eyes turned to the outer gate of Wengcheng. But the outer city gate did not open as they expected, and people began to chat impatiently. Suddenly, a loud horn from the top of the city interrupted everyone's conversation. People raised their heads and looked up the city tower, only to see a military attache standing under the banner, it was Zhang Doujian. "Open the city gate! Why haven't you opened the city gate yet!" I don't know which person shouted. The voice was not loud at first, but soon more people made the same shout, and more than a thousand people shouted. The shouts merged into one, forming an invisible shock wave. The guards on the tower looked towards Zhang Dujian with some fear. A cruel smile appeared on Zhang Doujian's face. He waved his hand and ordered: "Archers come forward, those below are rebels, don't leave any of them behind!" The Manichaeans in Wengcheng looked at them in shock. Rows of archers appeared on the city plate, and the arrows in their hands reflected the cold light in the sun. Now everything is clear. It was a trap from the beginning, a trap that would kill everyone. "Gou Guan, you have betrayed your trust and will be punished by God!" "As soon as Leader Fang's army arrives, you will be cut into pieces, Dog Guan!" All kinds of vicious curses spewed out from the mouths of these desperate people, almost at the same time, like raindrops. Arrows also shot down from the city wall, penetrating each body and taking away the life from the living flesh. "Get down!" Before Zhong Zhe'an fully realized what was going on, he was thrown to the ground by Zheng Yuanzhi who was standing beside him. He was immediately pressed under him, and his voice came to his ears: "Don't move around. Go down, if you can get out alive, I will leave my wife and children to you. My home is at the entrance of Luoshan Village, Qingyuan County, and there is a big locust tree in front of my house¡ª¡ª" Just as he said this, Zheng Yuanzhi's voice suddenly stopped. , Zhong Zhe'an was horrified to see a painful expression on the other person's face, and then he felt some warm and moist liquid on his skin. "Brother Zheng, what's wrong with you?" Zhong Zhe'an stretched out his hand in panic to determine what happened. But Zheng Yuanzhi stopped him and said with difficulty: "Don't be like this, I can't do it anymore. Remember what I just said, my home is in Luoshan Village, Qingyuan County, the door -" At this point, Zheng Yuanzhi's head hung down feebly. , the sound also stopped suddenly, Zhong Zhe'an could clearly see two crossbow arrows stuck in the opponent's vest! In the camp outside the south gate, Zhou Ping was discussing matters with his generals, when suddenly there was a burst of crying and cursing from outside. "She'er, go see what's going on!" Zhou Ping frowned and threw the bamboo stick in his hand on the map. Although he couldn't hear the specific content of the voice clearly due to the distance, The deep-seated hatred contained in it still made him feel upset. "Here!" Luo Sheer, who served as the bodyguard, responded and ran out quickly. After a while, he reported back: "Tell the general, they are the captured Manichaeans!" "Manichaeans?" Zhou Ping couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart when he heard this, and he couldn't help but recall the conversation in Zhizhou Mansion yesterday. "Exactly, Supervisor Zhang lured these thieves into Wengcheng, and then fired thousands of arrows -" Luo Sheer said with excitement, and it seemed that she quite admired Supervisor Zhang's trick. "That's enough!" A shout interrupted Luo Sheer's narration. The young man looked at Zhou Ping's face at a loss and wondered where he had said the wrong thing. Li Bao on the side saw this and hurriedly came out to smooth things over and said to Luo Sheer: "She'er, you go down first. The prisoner will ask you to come in again!" "Yes!" Luo Sheer hurriedly responded and retreated. Zhou Ping sighed: "That's all, I just think it's unlucky to kill prisoners. These people are also the imperial princes, but they are just deceived by monsters!" "Zhou Supervisor, what you said is a bit wrong!" Chang Zongtian was the one who spoke. The actual dispatcher in this small reinforcements was Zhou Ping's deputy general, but his military experience was unparalleled. Zhou Ping respected his opinions very much, so the two of them cooperated very happily from the time the army was dispatched to the present, and they talked a lot less. Scruples. "Compared to other brothers, we have been eating military food for a few more years, so I will say a few rude words here. As the saying goes, 'Compassion does not control soldiers, and righteousness does not control wealth!' Since we have done this knife-edge licking In this business of blood, those coaxing things with big turbans have to be thrown aside, and you have to kill them when they need to be killed. In my opinion, Wang Ziwu is right to kill. Not only should he kill, but he should also build those corpses into a temple to scare those morons. The courage of the nuns, we will have to deal with tens of thousands of people next! Who knows when the reinforcements will arrive!" After hearing what Chang Zongtian said, everyone except Zhou Ping nodded slightly, as if it was a matter of course, " Prison, where are you going?" Under everyone's surprised gazes, Zhou Ping stood up and walked out of the tent.?The generals looked at each other in disbelief. Breathing the cold and humid air outside the tent, Zhou Ping gradually calmed down. He once again felt the huge difference in the inner worlds between himself and the others. Maybe he can kill bandit leaders like Song Jiang without any guilt, because in a sense, Song Jiang, like himself, is an opportunist who wants to climb up through the coming troubled times. Since he participated in this It¡¯s a dangerous game, so you have to accept the logic of the game¡ªfailure means death. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
