Chapter 165

Another day passed.

When Liu Bian personally led the army to the city, Gongsun Xu's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

Looking at Gongsun Zan's corpse, which was hung high on the big banner and almost parallel to the top of the city, Gongsun Xu's canthus was tearing apart, and two bloodshot eyes flowed out of his angry eyes. Gongsun Fan beside him couldn't help but gasp in shock. With a cold breath, he said: "You must not be confused by anger. At this critical moment, you should deal with it calmly."

Gongsun went on to build the battlements, and the nails of both hands were firmly digging at the wall, causing the nails to turn outwards and blood to flow profusely, but he seemed unaware of this, looking at the horse standing on the big banner of the Chinese army. The next Liu Bian gritted his teeth and said, "Zhu Zi'an dares to do this, so I will cut your body into thousands of pieces to relieve the hatred in my heart."

Gongsun Fan sighed helplessly when he heard the words, and wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know how to speak.

The dead body of the old man was hung high in front of his son. At this time, it was out of good intentions to persuade him, but in Gongsun Xu's ears, it must not be a good word.

As the saying goes, fathers and fathers cannot be hated together. At this time, it is not a matter of persuasion, but to find a way to avenge my eldest nephew. To take a step back, even if I can't avenge him, I have to let the other party take Gongsun Zan's death first. Put the body down.

Just as Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Xu on the top of the city were racking their brains to think of countermeasures, there was a commotion in the army formation outside the city.

The cavalry formation suddenly lined up on both sides and voluntarily gave way to a road. Just when everyone at the top of the city was confused, they saw a chariot with two big banners slowly driving out of the formation.

Two corpses were hung on the two large banners, one was Gongsun Yue's corpse, and the other was Yan Gang's corpse.

Looking at the corpses of the two, Gongsun Xu's body slowly collapsed like a ball that has suddenly deflated.

Seeing this, Gongsun Fan quickly grabbed Gongsun Xu's body from behind, and said softly, "Be careful."

Hearing the words, Gongsun Xu turned around slowly, and looked at Gongsun Fan silently. A flash of unconcealable fear and confusion suddenly flashed in his eyes, and said, "What should I do for the current plan?"

Looking at Gongsun Xu, who had lost his backbone, Gongsun Fan silently glanced at the corpses of Gongsun Zan and others in the distance, and then sighed helplessly, saying, "How can you forget the revenge of killing your father? If you really can let go of killing your father Not taking revenge, being able to endure the torment of being spurned by the world, surrendering is not a choice."

Gongsun Fan really posed a problem for Gongsun Xu. What Gongsun Fan said seemed to be a multiple-choice question, but in fact there was only one option. How could the young and vigorous Gongsun Xu choose to surrender to the enemy who killed his father instead of avenging his father? Please drop it?

In fact, this is simply a dead proposition.

Gongsun Xu is just a second-generation ancestor who grew up slowly under the protection of Gongsun Zan. He does not have the courage and patience to endure hardships, and Gongsun Fan's actions are really a bit difficult for him.

Having said that, even if Gongsun Xu has the courage to endure hardships and taste courage, Liu Bian is by no means comparable to Wu Wang Fuchai. Liu Bian grew up in adversity, and now he has long abandoned the so-called benevolence and righteousness. A pragmatist, as long as it is something that is beneficial to him, he can play the role of a benevolent and righteous gentleman without conscience, but when he finds that the existence of the other party will become a potential threat to himself, he will not hesitate to act. Don't hesitate to make the decision to cut the weeds and eradicate the roots.

Gongsun Xu silently raised his head and looked up at the sky, seeing that it was dusk, so he forced himself to stand upright, turned his back to Gongsun Fan and said: "Before my father left, he entrusted all his relatives to me, and asked me to take care of his family." Take care, if I unfortunately die in battle, how will they deal with it?"

When Gongsun Fan heard the words, he had already guessed what Gongsun Xu wanted, so he replied without hesitation: "The Gongsun family only has people who died in battle, and there are no ghosts who surrendered."

Gongsun Xu nodded silently, and said: "It's getting late today, when tomorrow dawns, I will lead my army to fight to the death with Zhuzi."

"good."

Gongsun Fan nodded approvingly.

It has to be said that most of the people from the Gongsun family have a donkey temper that would rather bend than bend. However, in addition to the Gongsun family, there are other family members with other surnames in the city. They are not as tough as the Gongsun family. With the news of the soldiers approaching the city, their minds immediately became alive.

That night.

After some deliberation, everyone finally selected a representative from the aristocratic family, and asked him to secretly go to the North Gate of Juyang to meet the Chengmen Xiaowei Wangmen who had a good relationship with the aristocratic family.

Wangmen's qualifications are mediocre, his abilities are mediocre, and he is a typical example of being incapable of being successful in military affairs, but he has a heart that does not want to be under others for a long time. Whenever he is drunk, he will complain a few times, bluntly saying that Gongsun Zan can't know people and do things well. , I was one of the first people to follow Gongsun Zan, but he only served as a captain of the city gate.

It was precisely because of Wangmen's greed that everyone wanted to find a breakthrough from him.

The person chosen as the representative of the family was named Tian, ​​with a single Chinese character in his name. This person came from the same clan as Tian Kai, but he had nothing to do with Tian Yu.

Tian Hua approached the north gate slowly in the dark, when he was more than fifty steps away from the north gate, he was picked out by the secret sentinel placed by Wangmen at the north gate.

Two soldiers came to Wangmen with Tian Hua's skirts on, and said, "General, this man is sneaking around at night, and he seems to be suspected of doing something wrong."

Wang Men took the torch from someone else and took a photo on Tian Hua's face. When he saw that it was Tian Hua, he immediately laughed and threw the torch aside, and waved at the two soldiers who were guarding Tian Hua. He waved his hand and said, "He is one of our own, and I asked him to come."

Seeing this, the two quickly let go of Tian Hua, and bowed to him to apologize.

Tian Hua used the darkness of the night to conceal the shock on his face, waved to the two of them, and said, "It's okay, it's okay."

Tian Hua didn't care about what he said, but what Wang Men said just now was in his mind.

Tian Hua frowned and thought: "Why did Wangmen take the initiative to help him out of the siege, is it possible?"

Tian Hua thought about it, and suddenly felt happy, and said to himself: "It turns out that the Wang family has objected a long time ago, it seems that I came at the right time."

Wang Men took a deep look at Tian Hua who was lowering his head in deep thought, smiled slightly, took his arm, and walked slowly towards the top of the city.

The two came to a place where no one was around, Wang Men glanced at Tian Hua with a smile, and immediately asked straight to the point: "Are you risking your life to come to see me tonight, are you trying to persuade a certain Kaicheng to surrender?"

Tian Hua was startled when he heard the words, and then he looked at Wangmen silently, squinted his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Are you going to die?"

Wangmen smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said: "It is better to live than to die. This sentence sounds rough, but it is a wise saying."

The two played a charade casually, and finally got straight to the point from Wangmen, saying: "Tell me, after surrendering, what benefits can I get as your savior?"

Tian Hua frowned when he heard the words, and said coldly: "Forgive me for speaking bluntly, you are saving yourself."

Wangmen smiled indifferently, and said: "A certain big bastard, who still has a bit of martial arts, although he doesn't have the ability to kill generals and capture flags, but he is more than enough to escape with his life. He is no better than you, and he doesn't need to bring his family with him. Let me tell you, each of you has a big family, once the family is overthrown, how will you face the underground ancestors in the future?"

Tian Hua saw that Wangmen was such a rascal, so he shook his head helplessly, and said: "I can make the decision. After the whole city surrenders, I can recommend you to be the county magistrate of Juyang together with the other big families. I don't know what you think?"

"good."

Hearing this, Wangmen finally nodded in satisfaction.
