Chapter 747

e scorched by the flames

The day after the black flag army lined up in the north of the city, Fu Zhengnan felt that he had never been so worried. Since he inherited the position of the head of Qingyuan City from his father, in fact, it has been going well. He experienced the demise of big business and the founding of Nanyan, which did not touch the position of the Fu family in Qingyuan City. Speaking of the most powerful person in Nanyan, he can still rank in the top 15.

He even felt that he was lucky. When the great Sui Dynasty attacked and destroyed the Shang state, he was still young and did not become the leader of the city. At that time, his father was worried all day, because they knew that Qingyuan City could not stop the booming great Sui army, but fortunately, the great Sui did not continue to go south.

Then when Nanyan was founded, Murong shame dared not offend the local dignitaries, because Qingyuan City was the gateway to the north of Nanyan. Murong shame knew better about the Fu family, and the Fu family got no less benefits than others. Just because he knew that Murong shame did not dare to pay for him, otherwise he would not brazenly intercept Murong yongduo's booty, because he knew that Murong shame could only blame one or two words at most. Without their Fu family, who will guard the north gate of Nanyan?

But this time, he found that his luck was gone.

Fang Xie asked people to bring back a five kill sentence, and then shot thousands of text messages on the wall, which made the people in the city boiling. I heard and saw that the city wall was devastated by stone throwing vehicles, and the people were even more afraid to go to the city to help defend. In the past two days, some soldiers even took the opportunity of patrolling, took off their uniforms, lost their weapons and ran away, and no one could find them.

If this goes on, the people will start making trouble soon.

If things are really so simple, it will be over to send the people of pingshangdao out. He is more willing than anyone.

But he also knew better than anyone that this was Fang Xie's separatist plan.

"Lord!"

A partisan ran in quickly and said, "go and have a look on the wall."

"What's the matter?"

Seeing that the general's face was eager, Fu Zhengnan was also tight in his heart.

"You'd better... Have a look by yourself."

Fu Zhengnan was greatly annoyed by the way the general wanted to stop talking, but he didn't have time to worry about these at this time. He immediately took people to the side of the city wall. The black flag army didn't attack these two days, but he was more worried and busy dealing with the people in the city. He didn't sleep these two days.

When he got to the wall, he took the Qianliyan handed to him by his own soldiers and looked out. Fu Zhengnan immediately shouted, "Fang Xie! You shameless man!"

About six or seven hundred steps away from the city wall, a team of about hundreds of people stopped there. There was a table at the front of the line, which looked full of wine and vegetables. Three people sat around, pushing cups and changing lamps from time to time. And Fu Zhengnan saw who was facing the city wall among the three people... His brother, Fu Zhengming.

"It's the second master!"

A soldier lowered his voice and said in surprise, "the second master is eating wine with the big general of the black flag army!"

"And general Shi!"

The sharp eyed soldier saw another man clearly.

"You see, even the second master and stark have not been executed... They are still drinking there. It seems that the black flag army is not bad to our people."

"Yes, it's said that the black flag army never keeps alive. It seems that it's also a rumor. Even the second master can eat and drink. Surely we won't be killed?"

Soon, the soldiers began to talk.

"I want to say that people are doing it on purpose. I just want us to see that as long as you surrender, you won't be guilty, and you will be delicious and entertained. In fact, another meaning is that if you resist, no one can sit down and drink wine like the second master and general Shi."

"Shh! Keep your voice down!"

"I tell you, in fact, we are just dead chess pieces. The black flag army wants the people of pingshangdao. Even if it wants Qingyuan City, do we have to kill all the people in Qingyuan City? If we do that, who dares to open the door and surrender in the big cities behind?"

"In fact, it's not us who can't surrender, but the city master..."

Someone lowered his voice and said carefully: "If we surrender, we'll still be soldiers. It's a big deal to go home and farm. I heard that the black flag army on Pingshang road is distributing the fields to the people! Every family grows their own fields, not for the rich! But if the city Lord surrenders, can we be the city Lord? The city Lord orders us to guard for fear of losing their family's things, and we just guard their family. For the sake of other people's homes Things work hard... Alas! "

"I'm also thinking. If the black flag army says it's going to kill the city, it's worth fighting for our parents and relatives. There's nothing to hesitate. But now people say that as long as they return the people of Pingshang Road, they won't kill innocent people indiscriminately. Even the city Lord won't agree. Is our life worth selling? If the city Lord doesn't agree, when the black flag army breaks the city, No one who wears armor and weapons is left. Who did this to us? "

"Stop talking! Be careful to be heard!"

"At this meeting, who doesn't think more!"

Although the voices of these discussions were not loud, they were everywhere. Not only the soldiers, but also the low-level officers. In the city, the streets were full of people and excited. If someone observed carefully, he would find that in every place with a large number of people, someone would make an excited speech and point the spear at the city master Fu Zhengnan After the emotions of the people are aroused, these people will disappear into the crowd and disappear.

suburb

Fang Xie looked back at the side of the city wall with his wine glass, then smiled and asked, "you two, sit here and drink with me. I'm afraid the city Lord will be very unhappy?"

Fu Zhengming and stark looked at each other and their faces were bitter.

……

……

In the afternoon, a group of cavalry came out of the city like a cloud. When they arrived at the bottom of the city, they stopped their horses. The man in charge opened his bowstring, shot a feather arrow, and poked it on the tower.

"Tell your city master, don't return my people in the Sui Dynasty until sunrise tomorrow. After the city is broken, don't blame my general for being ruthless!"

After the man shouted, he turned around and left. All the defenders on the wall heard it clearly. When they saw a letter tied to the feather arrow, they naturally understood that it was Fang Xie's letter to the city Lord and must be a letter to persuade him to surrender. So they are playing drums in their hearts. Will the city Lord agree?

Someone climbed up and pulled out the feather arrow. He didn't dare to read the letter and sent it to the city master's house intact.

Fu Zhengnan, who had not slept for two days, was just about to lie down and have a rest. He was woken up and put on a piece of clothes. His men said that the enemy army outside the city shot up a letter and saw that the envelope was written by the great general of the black flag Army. Fu Zhengnan picked up the letter, sat behind the desk and opened it with a gloomy face.

"Lord Fu: I heard that Lord Fu is very knowledgeable. Today, when I was drinking with your brother and general Shi outside the city, I heard your brother tell me an interesting story about Nanyan. It is said that an old turtle is common on the beach of Nanyan. The small one is like a millstone and the large one is like a boat. Unlike ordinary turtles, the shell behind the old turtle is not strong. Although it is like a castle, it will break when smashed. If you encounter any risk, you should turn your head and feet immediately He shrank into the shell and thought he could protect himself. At first, the fisherman thought that the turtle shell was very strong, so he made it solid with eggs. When he touched it, the eggs were intact and the turtle shell was broken... My brother didn't know the name of the turtle. I didn't know I was anxious. My brother immediately said that my brother was the most knowledgeable and learned, so I should know the name of the turtle. Therefore, I wrote a letter to ask Lord Fu, what's the name of the turtle of Nanyan? I don't know how long this turtle will live? I don't know how brave this turtle will be? I don't know how delicious this turtle will taste? I came to Nanyan to enjoy the landscape and historic sites. It's also a beautiful thing to catch turtles and turtles and cook soup and wine. Although I haven't seen it, I know it's delicious when I think about it. It's really rude. I hope the city Lord will give me some advice. Thank you here. "

"Fang Xie!"

After reading the letter, Fu Zhengnan's shoulders trembled. He tore the letter up like crazy. His clothes fell off, but he didn't notice at all. Angry Fu Zhengnan tore up the letter and kicked over the desk in front of him.

"I'm against you! If I don't kill you, I swear I won't be a man!"

The angry roar came out of the study, and everyone outside looked puzzled and frightened. They don't know why the city Lord is so angry.

However, the news soon spread. When the garrison on the wall changed its defense, it said that the black flag army sent a handwritten letter from Fang Xie, which should be an ultimatum. When the sun rises tomorrow, if you don't exchange the people of the great Sui Dynasty, you will attack the city.

Then the second news came out soon. It is said that the city Lord tore up Fang Xie's personal letter and roared to solve the death battle with Fang Xie!

That night, some people were incited to gather outside the city master's house and shouted for the Sui people to be released from the city. In a rage, Fu Zhengnan ordered the army to drive the people away, and many people were injured.

"The general has created an opportunity for us. If we don't make good use of it, how can we afford the arrangement of the general?"

Late at night, several people gathered in the corner to discuss: "go to the place where the people of Pingshang road gather, and let them be ready tonight. If you see a fire in the city, rush to the city gate and remove the stones blocking the city gate!"

"We went to incite the people in the city to besiege the main residence tonight and force Fu Zhengnan to release them. There will be trouble on both sides, and the garrison in the city will be restrained. At that time, the number of people in the barracks will be reduced sharply. Others sneaked in and set fire, then stole some clothes of Nanyan soldiers, put them on and spread rumors in the barracks, saying that Fu Zhengnan will kill all the Sui people tonight Will not return it to the black flag army! "

"Then there will be trouble at the city gate, and they will believe it! Then let's take advantage of the chaos and find a way to open the city gate. If we can't open it, we'll burn him in the city. Where are the defenders still thinking of guarding the city in such trouble?"

The leader lowered his voice and said, "if there is a fire in the barracks, Fu Zhengnan will take people to deal with it. I will mix with the crowd in the street and stab him with crossbows and arrows. I certainly can't kill him, but as long as he orders to search the assassin, our people encourage the people to say that Fu Zhengnan is going to kill people and kill all the people who have gathered to let him go."

Several people were stunned. They all knew that it was more or less dangerous for the team to do it.

"Group leader, you should live well. We have insisted until the general leads the troops. After the city is broken, we can go back and have a good sleep and get drunk! We agreed to go shopping together!"

"Good!"

The group leader nodded vigorously: "drink a pot of wine and go to a brothel!"

He looked at the sky, waved his hand and said, "let's do it separately. The sooner the better!"

Several people disappeared into the night and turned around and hugged before leaving: "alive!"

"Alive!"

In the night, the voice was so light, but so firm.
