Chapter 655 Li Mi's Ambush
Chapter 655 Li Mi ambushed
After laughing, Zhang Zhongjian said with some confusion, "King Chen, Fang Xuanzao is a man with a low character and has always been unstable. At the beginning, he was one of the leaders of Wagang Village, but later he secretly surrendered to Li Mi behind his back. Even Li Mi's killing of Zhai Rang was also a planner. Now he suddenly shouted to surrender to our court. Is there any fraud? We have to be careful."
"Yes, keeping such a villain is also a disaster. Your Highness simply kills him with one knife and throws him into the river to feed the fish, so he saves the effort of guessing." Lu Shishen slapped his head. He has always looked down on such villains at both ends of snakes and rats. The fall of Chen State was because there were too many unfaithful ministers in Chen State. Even his two brothers had been begging for honor back then. Not only did they surrender to Chen State, but they also persuaded his father to surrender.
As a result, his father took this as hatred and committed suicide. Since then, Lu Shishen looked down on such a rebel, and even felt extremely hostile. When Liaodong conquered Liao, many of the captives of the Liao people died under his killing prisoners.
"Fang Xuanzao could betray Zhai Rang back then, but now he is willing to betray Li Mi. Such people will definitely betray Your Highness whenever they have the chance in the future." Guo Xiaoke also had no good feelings for such a literati who was afraid of death. On weekdays, he was like a famous scholar. But once he reached the critical moment, these people were weak and afraid of death.
Chen Kefu just smiled slightly at the attitude of his subordinates. "Chen Lei, please bring Fang Xuanzao up."
Sometimes, although they clearly despise the character of those villains, they still have to use it when they should be used. Sometimes, these villains are of great use, as long as they are used well, they can even be thousands of troops.
After a while, Fang Xuanzao was taken into the cabin under the hostage of two guards and threw it on the ground.
At this time, Fang Xuanzao had no such style as a military advisor, and even had no talent for a literati. The sergeant who was interrogating just now did not think of his identity as a literati. Once he entered the sergeant, he had thirty killing sticks, which made him beat him up. Then, he did not give him any chance to breathe, and no one came to interrogate the information or something. Another burly sighed naked with a whip and hung him there, and whipped him in a daze with a headless and slapped him with the oil whip soaked in salt water.
Like a crazy snake dancing oil whip twitched on his body one after another, shattering his robe. Among the rags and whip shadows flying all over the sky, he no longer had the same spirit as before and pointed at the country. He felt his soul scattered, and the whip marks on his back were numb, itchy, spicy and painful. He fainted several times, and was awakened by cold water several times.
With the last little strength, he shouted to beg for mercy over and over again, shouting to surrender. However, the strong man who waved the whip turned a deaf ear until he blew more than ten whips and thirty whips before he stopped.
Fang Xuanzao, who woke up again, was not only cursing these strong men and Chen Kefu in his heart, but also regretted it over and over again. He almost regretted it. Why was Dou Hongxin's blood boiling as soon as he spoke when he was in Jinyong City and could not control himself. He was scrambling to come to join Dou Hongxin again and become an envoy? Fangze did not get intimate, but his life was going to be ruined here.
Just when he thought he was about to be beaten to death at the bottom of the bilge, someone who looked like an officer came in. He endured the scorching pain all over his body and said that he knew many military secrets of Wei and Yan and was willing to report them all. Only then did he finally get his attention and sent someone to report it.
He was carried by two guards and threw it in front of Chen Kefu. Fang Xuanzao sighed in his heart. He never thought that the young man who was half dead and brought to Wagang Village by the eldest daughter of the Zhai family was actually Chen Pojun. Why didn't he discover it at that time? He always claimed to be a scholar and looked down on a reckless man like Zhai Rang the most. Later, Li Mi went to Wagang and sent his beautiful military advisor to talk to him a few times, and then he turned to Li Mi's command. If he had not only cared about the beauty beside Li Mi at that time, but had a keen eye on Chen Kefu, he would have been in a high position today in the Hebei court.
Chen Kefu smiled and helped Fang Xuanzao up, "Brother Fang, you have suffered. When you were in Wagang, you and I used to drink and call you brothers, but I didn't want to meet like this today. It's really a blessing to be a mess. Brother Fang, now you and I are each their own masters, and the two countries are fighting each other, and there is nothing to do. I, Chen Kefu, today, I am a man, and I am willing to fulfill your name of loyalty. Come, after drinking this bowl of wine, my brother will personally send you on your way."
Seeing Chen Kefu really took two big bowls of wine from the guards, Fang Xuanzao's face turned pale. He was not a loyal person. He was originally a local small official in the Sui Dynasty. Because he was incompatible with the chief official, he was in anger and killed the chief official so he had no choice but to lose his luck. But he always regarded himself very well and always felt that he had the talent to calm the world, but no one had the wisdom to know others. He had killed his boss and betrayed the old leader Zhai Rang. The so-called loyalty had long had nothing to do with him. What's more, in this chaotic world, he never had to decide which one he needed to be loyal to.
Seeing Chen Kefu's smile, it seemed to be the death talisman of the underworld. Fang Xuanzao knelt on the ground, in front of his knees, hugged Chen Kefu's thighs with both hands, crying and tears, and his voice was miserable, "King Chen, I used to be a little ignorant, I don't know that you are the true dragon emperor, but the little slut. Please let Chen go of the young man this time. Zhai Rang was not the one who killed me, but Li Mi, and Li Mi's dog thief designed to kill Zhai Dalongtou.
The second time was Li Mi forced to come down to Hedong. Xiaode always wanted to give him a chance to warn him, but he had no chance. He also asked King Chen to give Xiaode a chance. Xiaode was willing to follow King Chen to the death." While crying, Fang Xuanzao kowtowed, "By the way, Xiaode also knows many secret matters about Li Mi. Xiaode is willing to tell King Chen all of them and be prepared for him. Please spare Xiaode this time, take him as a front pawn, and serve King Chen."
When the generals in the cabin saw Fang Xuanzao's unbearable scene, they turned their heads in disdain.
Even Chen Kefu couldn't help but secretly contempt. Unexpectedly, when he was always looking down on others, he ignored the so-called scholars and masters who always looked down on others, he ignored the slightest face. In panic, he could say anything shameless. At this time, Chen Kefu would accept him as his godson and ask him to call him father, and he would immediately agree.
If he hadn't had any use, Chen Kefu kicked him away. He endured the disgust. Chen Kefu forced a smile on his face and held his hand. "If Brother Fang was determined to die, although I could only fulfill it, I always felt regretful. Now Lord Fang has finally gotten in touch with each other and is willing to make some contributions to the people of the world and the people of the dawn. This is of course the best thing. For example, the traitors such as Li Mi will be punished. Eliminate such sluts as soon as possible and restore peace to the people of Henan as soon as possible. Brother Fang has given up his personal details, and the whole world is full of justice, which makes Chen admire him."
Although Fang Xuanzao had a fever on his face, he also understood that Chen Kefu probably would not kill him anymore, and he felt a little calmer for a moment. When he thought of his performance just now, he felt ashamed and angry. He secretly felt that this was Chen Kefu's intentional act just to humiliate him. He felt hatred in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be extremely cautious on his face.
A guard took the four treasures of the study and placed them on the old case. Chen Kefu looked at Fang Xuanzao and smiled slightly.
Fang Xuanzao understood what Chen Kefu meant, so he had to go forward, pick up his pen, and write out some secret matters of Wei that he knew. He wanted to write some fake things casually, but he saw that Chen Kefu and his subordinates all smiled, but he stared at him with a faint threat in his eyes. He didn't dare to have any idea at this moment. He honestly picked some not-so-important things and wrote several large pieces of paper. Finally, he looked at Chen Kefu quietly and saw that he was still staring at him.
After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and had to write two more pieces of paper ink, but this time he wrote a lot of confidential things. After writing, he endured the pain on his back and stood aside nervously, but saw that Chen Kefu did not say a word, his face became more and more gloomy.
At this moment, my heart shook, lowered my head in fear, picked up the paper and pen and started writing again.
After five or three times, I copied all the last memory in my mind before I stopped. I stood aside with my legs fighting. I haven't seen Chen Kefu say a long time ago. Although I was frightened, I really had nothing to write about.
It took a long time to see Chen Kefu laughing, and stepped forward and slapped his skinny shoulder. He grinned in pain, but did not dare to make a sound.
"Okay, Brother Fang is a great achievement. After returning to the court with me, he will report to the Ming court and reward Brother Fang with a lot of rewards." After saying that, he ignored him and watched the content he wrote with his subordinates and generals.
After reading it, Chen Kefu was in a good mood and said loudly, "Chen Lei, get the sand table from the southern section of the Yellow River. I must study the newly obtained information carefully." The sand table quickly put up. Chen Kefu seemed to be too happy and did not ask anyone to take Fang Xuanzao down, but instead studied the deployment of the uprising and horses with his subordinates on the spot.
"Li Mi is indeed sinister. Not only did he join forces with the Li family, he wanted to poison both the king and Wang Shichong at Mengjin with Li Shimin. He also had a backup plan. 100,000 soldiers were deployed in two areas of Hulao Pass and Jindi Pass. It seemed that he had made up his mind to kill us and would never let the king and the 50,000 soldiers return to Hebei." Chen Kefu held several small flags in his hand, representing Li Mi and his own soldiers and horses, and was inserted on several areas on the south bank of the Yellow River in the sand table.
Zhang Zhongjian stared at the sand table and frowned and said, "Hulao Pass and Jindi Pass are both on the south bank of the Yellow River, and are closely next to the Yellow River. If Li Mi really set up an ambush in these two areas in advance, as long as he sank ships on the two rivers, it will be difficult for us to pass. At that time, all the ambushers on the shore will be out and abandoned the boats and fight on land. We are afraid that it will be difficult to resist."
