Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

Regarding Qiao Rui's words, Lei Bo did not refute, but admitted: "Indeed, Mr. Yuan is kind to Lei, and Lei also knows, so that day, when Xianghou's troops broke through the city, Lei also tried his best to resist. , until the end of the day, for the sake of many brothers not to lose their lives in vain, then surrender."

Qiao Rui sneered and said, "The general trend is over, hehe, I think you already have your own heart!"

Lei Bo shook his head and said: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. That day, Leimou surrendered just to save his life, and the reputation of Xianghou's benevolence and righteousness is well known in the world. He can serve Xianghou. Leimou feels that he will not be wronged, but"

Lei Bo suddenly raised his voice, and said: "However, after being under the command of the Marquis of Xiang, Lei did not know that there are no worthless soldiers under the prestigious name. After seeing the soldiers and horses of the Marquis of Xiang, only then did he know what it means to be strict in military discipline, and what it means to treat the common people well." No crime, what is true love for the people like a son!"

"Yuan Shijun used troops, Jingzhou and Yangzhou, the homes of countless people in the two places were destroyed, and Xianghou raised troops, but he was rebuilding their homes for the people. Yuanshijun, you are too different from Xianghou!"

At this time, Yuan Shu's figure was shaking a little. He is a member of the Yuan family, and his status is so noble. It's nothing more than aggrieved by being blocked in the city by Li Yi today. His former subordinates dared to point at his nose to make fun of him. If it wasn't for the recent Having suffered too many blows, his nerves have become extraordinarily strong, otherwise Yuan Shu would probably vomit blood from anger again.

It's just that Yuan Shu could bear it, but his subordinates couldn't bear it, pointing at Lei Bo and scolding one by one, each one was worse than the other, but Lei Bo was still unmoved, and instead said with his head held high: " Ladies and gentlemen, for the sake of our colleagues, Lei Mou advises you to abandon the dark and turn to the light as soon as possible, not only for the sake of life and death, but also for the sake of morality in your heart. Even if it is death, it is a worthy death, and there will be no regrets in death!"

After finishing speaking, Lei Bo turned around and knelt down to Li Yi, saying: "After today, Lei Bo is willing to take Xianghou as the master, go through fire and water for Xianghou, and die without hesitation. !"

Lei Bo's voice was very loud, and everyone could hear it clearly no matter whether they were on the top of the wall or the people behind Li Yi.

The people behind Li Yi were just fine, but the people on the top of the city were angry and helpless. After all, Lei Bo really compared Yuan Shu with Li Yi in such a way.

Moreover, they scolded and scolded, but they had to guess in their hearts how many people around them would have doubts about Yuan Shu because of Lei Bo's words, and then had the intention of getting close to Li Yi.

"General Lei, please rise."

Li Yi stepped forward to help Lei Bo up, and praised: "General Lei understands the righteousness, and I am very relieved. In the future, if I have meritorious service, I will definitely ask for credit for the general. I will never be stingy. It is not vain to be named a marquis in the future." , Moreover, not only General Lei, but other Yangzhou soldiers, as long as they are willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, Li is willing to treat him like a humerus, Xu Er waits for a bright future!"

"Thank you my lord!"

Lei Bo bowed to Li Yi, then slowly backed away, back behind Li Yi's personal guards, and Li Yi turned his head to look in the direction of the tower. Obviously, what he said was not only to Lei Bo, but also It was told to Yuan Shu's people on the top of the city.

Yuan Shu and the others also knew Li Yi's intentions, and were annoyed. Ji Ling was about to speak back, but Yan Xiang shouted first: "Li Yi, you invited my lord to meet here today, but you are talking about him from left to right. The general's nonsense is intended to disturb the morale of our army, isn't it afraid of damaging your reputation as Marquis Li Xiang with such a villain's actions?"

Li Yi spread his hands, and said: "Bie Yan, what you said is wrong. When Li saw Yuan Shijun, he bowed his hands to pay tribute, but Yuan Shijun ignored Li, and General Ji Ling humiliated me. My subordinates can't see it, and come out to say a few fair words, why is it just talking about it?"

Yan Xiang's expression froze. It seemed that Li Yi had just spoken just now, but Ji Ling led him to the conversation.

Seeing this, the people behind Li Yi burst out laughing, making Yan Xiang's face flush even more, but Yan Xiang was not Li Yi's goal, so he quickly waved his hands behind him to signal them to be quiet, then looked at Yuan Shu and said: "Yuan Shijun, the reason Li made an appointment today is actually for one of Yuan Shijun's subordinates."

Yuan Shu frowned slightly. Because of the siege of the city, Shouchun's news communication with the outside world was not completely blocked, but there was definitely a lot of lag. Therefore, Yuan Shu has not yet received the news of Yuzhang's fall.

Li Yi didn't intend to whet Yuan Shu's appetite, so he nodded, and Dian Wei walked out with Liu Xun, who was tied up, and pressed him beside Li Yi.

Yuan Shu had heard Li Yi say that they were his subordinates before, and he was still guessing which of his generals was captured by Li Yi in the previous battle at Yinling. Unexpectedly, the person who was escorted out by Li Yi was Liu Xun, and he was shocked. Turned pale, blurted out: "Zitai!"

This was the first time Yuan Shu spoke today, but because he was too surprised, the voice was not low, and many people heard it, and after a short moment of stupefaction, almost all of them showed panicked expressions.

Because Zitai is Liu Xun's nickname, and Liu Xun is the prefect of Yuzhang appointed by Yuan Shu, now that Liu Xun is here, doesn't it mean that Yuzhang has fallen into Li Yi's hands?

There was an uproar among the crowd on the top of the city, but Yuan Shu, Ji Ling and the others couldn't care less about it. They all stretched their necks to look at Liu Xun. Even though they knew it was impossible, they still hoped to appear here Liu Xun is a counterfeit.

Because Liu Xun heard Yuan Shu's voice, he subconsciously raised his head to look at Yuan Shu. From a distance, the two people's eyes happened to meet, and then Yuan Shu's heart suddenly became cold. He knew that Yuzhang was over.

But Liu Xun's eyes flashed with guilt, because he had already surrendered to Li Yi, which was regarded as a betrayal of Yuan Shu, but he was more unlucky, and Li Yi looked down on him.

Here I have to say something about Lei Bo. Although Lei Bo's words today were angry with Yuan Shu and disturbed Yuan Shu's army, those words were really from Lei Bo's heart.

When Lei Bo just surrendered to Li Yi, Li Yiming gave him praise and encouragement on the surface, but he didn't take Lei Bo seriously in his heart, but later he gradually realized that Lei Bo had actually had a relationship with Yuan Shu long ago. Zhao, as for the reason, it was that Lei Bo was dissatisfied with Yuan Shu's excessive taxation and the huge burden Yuan Shu brought to the people.

Perhaps, if Lei Bo was given more time, even if Li Yi did not enter Yangzhou, Lei Bo might take the initiative to leave Yuan Shu.

After surrendering to Li Yi, Lei Bo really felt Li Yi's proposition. He knew that although Li Yi was fighting, he never forgot the suffering of the people. , Lei Bo unconsciously began to change from a general who was dawdling in life to a diehard fan of Li Yi.

As for how Li Yi learned about this?

It is impossible for anyone to be stared at by a big man every day, who hesitates to speak, so Li Yi secretly investigated before deciding to kill Lei Bo, and came to such a Although he was a little speechless, he was also very pleased with the conclusion.

Since Lei Bo wanted to be Li Yi's loyal horse boy, Li Yi naturally accepted him without hesitation, and decided to make him a role model for Yuan Shu's subordinates to see, and today was Lei Bo's first show.

As for Liu Xun, he is also a role model, but he is another kind of role model

Seeing that Yuan Shu had confirmed Liu Xun's identity, Li Yilang said in a loud voice: "Emissary Yuan, a few days ago, Yuzhang was defeated by my general Zhang Liao, and Liu Xun was also captured alive. I am here today to inform you, and at the same time, I also want to discuss a small matter with Yuan Shijun."

Seeing this, Ji Ling wanted to answer on behalf of Yuan Shu, but after Yuan Shu heard the news of Yuzhang's fall, although his head was a little dazzled, the blood flow in his whole body seemed to speed up a lot, his body temperature rose, and he felt an inexplicable feeling in his body. Without waiting for Ji Ling to open his mouth, he shouted first, "What do you want to discuss!"

Li Yi pointed at Liu Xun, and asked with a smile: "I know Yuan Shijun has always cherished his subordinates, and after Liu Xun was captured, I persuaded him many times, and even promised to make him a marquis in the future, but he refused to surrender me, which made me very sad." It's helpless, let him go, of course he can't let go, but kill him, such a general, it's a pity to kill him, so Li wants to ask Mr. Yuan Shijun, is he willing to redeem Liu Xun?"

Even though Yuan Shudang was about to speak, Yang Hong on the side reminded him in a low voice: "My lord, Li Yifei is a kind person, and Liu Xun is probably not like that. In short, my subordinates are worried that there may be fraud!"

Although Yang Hong's words were vague, Yuan Shu still understood what he meant. Yang Hong felt that Liu Xun was not the kind of person who would treat death as home. If Li Yi really tempted him, would Liu Xun not surrender?

Yuan Shu suddenly had hesitation in his heart. After all, Li Yi cheated him out of experience. This is obviously the rhythm of trying to trick him again.

Seeing that Yuan Shu didn't reply, Li Yi sighed and said, "General Liu, it seems that Yuan Shijun doesn't want you to live, that's all, if that's the case, I'll send you on your way, come on, do it!"

Following Li Yi's order, Dian Wei pulled out a long knife and shook it in the air. Liu Xun was so frightened that his whole body went limp, and he was about to fall to the ground, but immediately a guard stepped forward and held him down. Can't move at all.

Dian Wei chuckled, and put the long knife on Liu Xun's neck, it was cool, coupled with Liu Xun's constant trembling, the blade cut the skin on the back of Liu Xun's neck very quickly , It frightened him to the point of tearing apart his liver and gallbladder.

"Leave people under the knife!"

When Yuan Shu saw this on the top of the city, he didn't care whether Li Yi dug a hole for him. After all, his general was about to be cut off. If he just watched like this, the team's support would be dispersed. Not good, I can only shout loudly: "Li Yi, how can you spare Zitai's life!"

Li Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this. He knew that Yuan Shu had bitten the hook. He immediately clapped his hands and praised: "As expected, you are worthy of Yuan Shijun, and you really are straightforward. Then Li is not a stingy person. As long as Yuan Shujun takes out [-] shi in exchange for grain." , Li is willing to pay a gift to General Liu Xun and serve him wine, and then send him into the city with drums and gongs, how about that, given Yuan Shijun's generosity, he will definitely agree?"

On the top of the city, Yuan Shu gasped several times. There was indeed a hole in this matter, and it was still a big hole.

However, Yuan Shu still underestimated Li Yi's black belly, and saw Li Yi quietly gestured to Dian Wei, Dian Wei understood, leaned over to Liu Xun's ear and said: "Hey, if you want to live, speak loudly now!" If you beg for mercy from your envoy Yuan, you must shout louder and more miserable, or Yuan Shu will be soft-hearted, or you will be able to make my lord satisfied, so you can survive, you know?"

After Dian Wei finished speaking, he cut Liu Xun's neck again with a knife. The pain made Liu Xun's eyes pop. At this moment, Dian Wei took the rag out of Liu Xun's mouth, and immediately, Up and down the city, tens of thousands of people inside and outside, all heard Liu Xun's heart-piercing wail: "My lord, save me!"

Chapter 528 Sending You the Jade Seal of the Kingdom

"My lord, save me"

Hearing Liu Xun's howling like a slaughtered pig, Yuan Shu didn't have the slightest pity for this old subordinate at the moment. On the contrary, all his emotions finally converged into one thought, why don't you die!

Of course, Yuan Shu was very kind to his subordinates, but that kind of kindness was in the final analysis a means of Yuan Shu's subordinates. No matter how close they were, no matter how polite and virtuous they were, they could not change the essence of the relationship between master and servant. relation to this fact.

This is not to say that Yuan Shu is cold-blooded. For example, when Zhang Xun resolutely decided to be the queen, Ji Ling, regardless of his injuries, stayed to block Zhang Liao with the determination to die, so as to buy time for Yuan Shu to escape. At that time, Yuan Shu was so moved that he burst into tears I can't help myself, there is no pretense at all, it's all from the bottom of my heart.

But today's situation is a completely different matter. It's fine for Liu Xun to lose the city and land, but as a general, he must at least be tough and show some backbone. Behaving so greedy for life and fearing death, showing all kinds of ugliness, disgusting Yuan Shu is already a trivial matter, the bigger problem is to shake the morale of the army!

Just imagine, a dignified general is so cowardly, how can Yuan Shu make the ordinary soldiers under his command spare their lives?

If Liu Xun could curse Li Yi loudly, and say that he would still be a good man 18 years later, and let the soldiers on the top of the city see his blood, Yuan Shu might actually exchange him with food, but he was so cowardly. The appearance of the bag made Yuan Shu feel as if he had eaten a mouthful of dog feces, put it in his mouth, and spit it out, how could he save him?

"My lord, save me!"
