13. Refuse to negotiate
...
"Banner, the situation seems to be wrong. Why did the sheep huddled in the wall opposite us start to yell the trumpet and warning as soon as we appeared?"
The Legend of the Condor Hero Shule looked at the changes in Xuanwu Pass several miles away from the opposite side, and couldn't help but look stunned and said to Yu Wen Zhou with a suspicious look.
However, when Yuwen Zhou heard this, he was very calm and even played with a whip on the horse's back with interest, his eyes full of interesting 8.
After a long time, Yuwen Zhou said, "Han Kuang is not here, can Zhang Dingbian and Cui Liang fight right in the pass? That Zhang Dingbian took the initiative to go out of the pass to investigate the whereabouts of our army last year and killed six of me in a row. He is also a wolf-like man."
Bu Zhen, the think tank beside him, hurriedly said, "Banklory, Han Kuang has been transferred from Xuanwu Pass as promised. Although Zhang Dingbian is brave, he is not planning. I heard that he and Cui Liang have always been disagreeable. They rely on Han Kuang to get along with their relationship on weekdays.
Now that Han Kuang is not in the pass, I see that they will definitely start to suspicion from each other, so they suggest that the banner owner wait a little longer and will be able to enter the pass easily..."
"Um……"
After hearing Bu Zhen’s words, Yuwen Zhou just responded casually, and then asked the two The Legend of Condor Heroes, Shule and Sertu, who were following him: “You are the best The Legend of Condor Heroes under my embroidered red banner. Let me ask you, how do you think the banner owner should break the barrier?”
Selto said first: "Return to the banner master's words, according to the opinions of the slaves, there is no need to tell any conspiracy to those humble Zhou Gou Sheep. I, the warriors of Lu, each fight against a hundred. As long as I dare to fight, I will definitely attack the Xuanwu Pass in one go. I am willing to lead the eight hundred warriors under my command to personally detain the pass!"
Yuwen Zhou shook his head with a smile and said to Serto: "Do you know that the 800 warriors under your command are soldiers and warriors of orthodox blood embroidered red flags? How can you be transferred to die at will?
Did you see that although the soldiers of Zhou State are cowards who dare to hide in the turtle shell and dare not come out, the turtle shell is the biggest obstacle to our going south.
Do you still remember the Battle of Yuyang Pass in Far East? It was damaged by countless people but did not take it head-on. In the end, it was taken by detours to Bumblebee Ridge to instigate some Jizhou troops to attack from front and back.
The Xuanwu Pass in front of me is even more difficult to catch than Yuyang Pass. Although Han Kuang was gone and his troops were transferred more than half, if he wanted to easily take it down, the owner of the banner would not feel that it was so easy..."
Yuwen Zhou's words made Seltu's face turn blue and white. He was really ashamed. He could only press his chest and back to him with one hand and said, "Sorry, the banner owner is all slaves, not..."
"It's not your fault..." Yuwen Zhou whipped the whip and stopped Seltu's words, "After all, this time the banner owner did come to this Xuanwu Pass. If I want the Holy Emperor Tuoba Hongye to be corrected, I must let the world see our achievements.
The technique of power and conspiracy is important, but my true nature is to regard martial arts as the most respected person. He uses the arc knife in his hand and the iron cavalry under his crotch to conquer the whole world. At that time, the banner master needs your bravery to shock all the sheep in the opposite pass!
Do you have this confidence?”
"Aoah~"
As soon as Yuwen Zhou finished speaking, the Hu people in the embroidered red flags all raised their arcs and howled with tigers, guns and wolfs. Their faces were extremely arrogant and ferocious, and they glanced at Xuanwu Pass from the corner of their eyes, full of disdain and heat.
After reaching out to comfort everyone, Yuwen Zhou said to Buzhen Zhaxi: "Think tank, you should take someone to persuade Zhang Dingbian first. We Mengluo people should give enough respect to such warriors. As long as we can let us enter the pass, no matter what requests we have, we will agree first..."
Buzhen Zaxi leaned over and bowed: "I'll do it now, please wait for the banner owner."
After talking, Buzhen Zhaxi led a few Mengluo slave soldiers to Xuanwu Pass. He was confident that as long as Han Kuang was not there, the guards in Guanzhong would be able to open the gate of the city gate to welcome the Xiuhong Banner.
Looking at Buzhen Zhaxi's figure who went to persuade him to surrender, Shule muttered disdainfully: "Ababi Doron's descendants can get extremely respected by just one mouth, which is really unpleasant..."
...
While Bu Zhen and Zhaxi were taking the slaves to Xuanwu Pass to persuade him to surrender, Liu Ce on the top of the city was also watching their every move with a mirror. Huangfu Zhai on the side still wiped the bronze mirror in his hand with a mirror cloth.
After a long time, Liu Ce put down his glass and said to the guard soldiers behind him: "I ordered the octagonal crossbow to prepare. The enemy entered the range of 180 steps, and then shoot me hard!"
"Abide by the order!"
The guards answered proudly, then turned around and walked towards the crossbow controller near the octagonal crossbow.
Nie Yuanqun said to Liu Ce with concern: "Mr. Military Governor, they seem to be just here to persuade them to surrender. Do you listen to what they want to say?"
"No need..." Liu Ce flatly rejected Nie Yuanqun's proposal, "This military governor is going to cut off the last bit of luck in the defenders' guards, so that they all know that there is no way out for those who are ambitious in dealing with wolfish people, only killing!"
"Well……"
Liu Ce's cold and resolute attitude made Nie Yuanqun's face stunned. He swallowed his saliva secretly and stopped talking.
"Crack ~"
An octagonal crossbow has been pulled wide by the crossbowman. The soldiers on the side stuffed a crossbow spear over 1.8 meters thick into the crossbow trough, ready to wait for orders to sling the string to shoot...
When Buzhen Zaxi came to two hundred steps outside Xuanwu Pass, when he saw the fortifications laid in front of the gate, his eyes couldn't help but feel straightened, and a strong sense of anxiety hit his heart.
"This, these Zhou sheep actually repaired the fortifications before closing so closely in a short time? What's the use of wrapping those lines on wooden stakes? Strange, are they planning to refuse the kindness released by the Monroe Empire..."
Suddenly, Buzhen Zhaxi felt that the negotiations and persuading surrender seemed to be as easy as before, so she began to pace and carefully began to think about how to decide the next step.
The towering Yunguan seemed to hide an inexplicable murderous intent, like a tiger's mouth, which could swallow itself in one mouth at any time.
This is what Buzhen Zhaxi thinks about the Xuanwu Pass in front of him, but this feeling has never been felt before.
"Maybe I'm thinking too much, Han Kuang is no longer there, what ability does Zhang Dingbian and others have to resist me? What's more, the old fox Zhang Jiashou has already arranged everything, there is no reason for an accident..."
Thinking of this, Buzhen Zhaxi suppressed his fear and continued to walk forward with a group of slaves.
"Swish~~"
“Ah~”
"Servant~"
Just as Buzhen Zhaxi and others stepped into the distance of 180 steps from Xuanwu Pass, a whistle of thunder and strings suddenly sounded in his ears. On the wall, a thick black crossbow spear was galloping towards him with endless anger.
Buzhen Zhaxi shouted, but when he was still in shock, he couldn't bear the fear in his heart. Fortunately, the crossbow spear flew directly over his head and nailed it to more than ten steps behind him.
This scene completely shocked Buzhen Zhaxi and the slave army around him. How dare the group of sheep in Xuanwu Pass fight back? It's no different from the sun and came out from the west. It's incredible.
"Listen to the barbarians outside the city (pass), this is the Central Plains. Get out of here without permission. Otherwise, you barbarians will not be so lucky next time! Go ahead, I promise to send your whole family to greet the mother of the earth!"
Wei Dian held a bronze trumpet and shouted loudly at the Hu people who were approaching outside the pass with a ferocious look on his face. Although they were far apart, the loud voice was still coming to Bu Zhen, Zhaxi and others' ears...
"Rebelled, rebelled, the sheep actually began to threaten the pack of wolves!"
When Buzhen Zhaxi heard Wei Dian's roar, he felt that he had suffered an unprecedented insult. He yelled in anger.
"Give me a bow~"
Seeing that Bu Zhen Zaxi had not retreated, Zhang Dingbian, who had been holding back, took action. He took a three-stone bow handed over by a sergeant, took a feather arrow and put it on the string and opened the bow round, aiming at Bu Zhen Zaxi. At the same time, his eyes narrowed slightly, feeling the wind flowing around him.
"Swish~"
The strings were tense for a moment, and the arrows appeared like stars. The huge force of the three stone bows caused a sound of air twisting, and rushed straight to Buzhen and left.
“Not good~”
"Puff~"
“Uh~”
Feeling the deadly crisis, Buzhen Zhaxi instinctively pulled a slave in front of him. At this moment, the feather arrow hit the slave soldier's shoulder directly, and he couldn't help but scream in pain.
I saw a shaking white feather arrow inserted on the shoulder armor made of leather armor. Fortunately, the distance was too far, and the wind direction and other factors made the arrow not very deep into his body, and he was lucky enough to escape his life.
"Remove, return to the banner owner~"
Buzhen Zhaxi, who had already confirmed that the situation was wrong, immediately stopped insisting on persuading Zhang Dingbian to surrender, and chose to retreat wisely.
"Drink~"
"Drink~"
"Drink~"
When the defenders at the city gate saw Buzhen Zhaxi and others who came to persuade the surrender retreated, they all burst into a fierce cheer.
How many years have they not had such excitement? Faced with the oppression and provocation of the Hu people, how could they have such a refreshing scene today? At this moment, they felt extremely excited and found a trace of glory as a soldier again.
Huangfu Zhai looked at the scene in front of him quietly, and after thinking for a long time, he said to Liu Ce: "Mr. Governor, are you angry with the Monroe?"
Liu Ce replied coldly when he heard this, "Does Mr. Huangfu think I'm doing something wrong?"
Huangfu Zhai shook his head: "No, on the contrary, the military governor's approach is very wise. Next, the last bit of luck in the defenders was cut off, and the entire pass will be shrouded in the shadow of fierce fighting. Now, this kind of crisis is needed!"
Liu Ce sneered: "When dealing with the enemy, I have never thought about the day when I shake hands with them, especially in this chaotic time, it is absolutely impossible.
Since Hu Nu dares to invade the realm, he must be aware of the blood-stained battlefield. This military governor wants to see if the legendary Monroe Iron Cavalry is really invincible!"
Huangfu Zhai nodded and said again: "I feel relieved after seeing the military governor's methods. If you have seen the military governor here, you can completely control the situation in Xuanwu Pass."
Liu Ce was stunned: "Is Mr. Huangfu leaving?"
Huangfu Zhai replied: "It will be useless to stay here anymore. It is better to go to the Governor's Office in Weiyuan City for a walk. Within ten days, I will bring you news that the Governor will be satisfied..."
Liu Ce frowned, looked at Huangfu Zhai's extremely firm expression, nodded for a long time and said, "Mr. Huangfu, go, I believe you..."
As he said that, Liu Ce handed his bloody horse to him: "This horse is produced in the Western Regions, which will help you. Please go and return quickly..."
"Um……"
Huangfu Zhai was not polite, and after responding, he led the sweaty horse and walked under the wall, and soon disappeared into everyone's eyes.
