Chapter 1372 1048. Exchange hostages
He shouted, and he turned his head to look at Yelu Zhu, saying, "Let Honghanmo release our family out of the city!"
But Yelu Zhu did not respond at all.
As an important official around Kublai Khan, he has no shortage of backbone and loyalty.
Perhaps from the moment he was defeated and captured, he had already made plans to die on the frontier.
His reaction also made Hong Hanmo, who was on the city, breathe a light sigh. If Yelu Zhuzhen ordered him to release Lu Wenhuan and the families of the generals in the army out of the city, it would be difficult for him to do so.
Hong Hanmo stared at Lu Yuwen and said, "Lu Yuwen, you want to exchange your family for Lord Zuo Cheng, and I can agree. However, to ensure the safety of Xiangyang City, I need you to enter the city. I can also guarantee that when your army withdraws from the southwest road of Beijing, I will release you out of the city immediately!"
Lu Yuwen frowned and spoke without saying a word.
If it weren't for Lu Wenhuan, there wouldn't be the current Lu Yuwen. In order to save Lu Wenhuan's family, Lu Yuwen would be willing to sacrifice his life.
What's more, Hong Hanmo just let him enter the city for quality.
He also knew something about Honghanmo. He was very cunning, but he was not very brave.
When he entered the city, Hong Hanmo probably didn't dare to do anything to himself. Because Hong Hanmo probably did not have the confidence to go to war with the Song army.
Guan Qiluo, the commander of the garrison army of Jiangling Prefecture, heard Hong Hanmo's words, but couldn't help but feel anxious. He patted Lu Yuwen and whispered: "General Lu, don't agree to him!"
He didn't have the idea of taking down Xiangyang Mansion, he was just worried about Lu Yuwen's safety.
Although the two have known each other for a short time, they are quite compatible with their temperament and are now considered good friends.
Lu Yuwen smiled bitterly, "The adoptive father treats Yuwen like a parent and child, and he has raised me so far. How can Yuwen ignore his compassionate father?"
After saying that, he looked up at Hong Hanmo and shouted, "Okay! I promise you!"
Then he turned over and dismounted, threw away the spear in his hand, and resolutely walked towards the gate of Xiangyang Prefecture.
"General Lu!"
"General Lu!"
Countless soldiers in the army shouted.
Lu Yuwen was just unmoved.
He looked back and showed an indescribable smile to the soldiers.
A creaking sound.
Under Honghanmo's order, the suspension bridge at the city end was slowly lowered.
Lu Yuwen only put on the suspension bridge, walked through the corridor, and entered the city.
As soon as he entered the city, he was tied up by the defenders in the city and then led to the top of the city, near Honghanmo.
Mrs. Lu shed tears and said, "Yu Wen, why are you doing this..."
The other people in the Lu family also had complex expressions, either guilt or gratitude.
In fact, Lu Yuwen can completely ignore their life and death. In the face of the great righteousness of the country, no one would say gossip about Lu Yuwen.
But Lu Yuwen was willing to come into the city.
"grandmother."
He just called out to Mrs. Lu, and stopped talking. He turned to look at Hong Hanmo.
Hong Hanmo also looked at him and said, "My eldest nephew is really a man! I admire him!"
Lu Yuwen was too lazy to talk to him and said coldly: "Let my adopted father and the families of all the generals in the army leave the city."
"well."
Hong Hanmo chuckled softly, waved his hand, "Let him go."
With Lu Yuwen on the top of the city, he was really not worried that the Song army and those old subordinates of Lu Wenhuan would attack the city. As Lu Yuwen, as the adopted son of Lu Wenhuan, had a high status in the army.
The defenders of Xiangyang Prefecture untied the ropes on Mrs. Lu and others.
"Yuwen..."
Mrs. Lu shouted again.
Lu Yuwen smiled a little and said, "Grandma, hurry up and go down the city! Following the army to Jiangling Mansion, Yuwen will come to find you later."
Lu Wenhuan's wife mixed with Mrs. Lu, "Mother, let's go down to the city..."
She swept over Honghanmo hatefully, which was a warning.
Only Honghanshi was not concerned about it.
The members of the Lu family came to the city wall and repeatedly looked back to Lu Yuwen.
Lu Yuwen always had a smile on his face.
When we arrived at the city, there were families of many generals in the army. We were at a loss, but when we saw the members of the Lu family coming down, we finally breathed a relaxed tone.
The soldiers who were escorting them also let them go.
Everyone walked into the corridor and headed out of the city gate.
Qiluo looked up at the city entrance with a slight anger on his face.
A general in the army rushed forward.
It was not until many families were welcomed into the army that Guan Qiluo shouted coldly: "Let Yelu Zhu enter the city!"
He really couldn't ignore Lu Yuwen's life or death.
Although in terms of status, Lu Yuwen is far from Yelu Zhu. However, Lu Yuwen was a general who joined the Song Dynasty and a meritorious minister in the Song Dynasty.
The Song Dynasty would not abandon such generals.
The soldiers let go of Yelu Zhu.
Yelu Zhuo was dressed in a tidy shirt and staggered towards the city. Even though he entered the city under such circumstances, he still maintained the majesty and dignity of his left prime minister.
After his figure disappeared into the corridor, the suspension bridge was slowly lifted up again with a creaking sound.
Hong Hanmo at the top of the city did not speak anymore.
Guan Qiliu stared at him with his eyes and said, "Honghanmo, if General Lu makes any mistakes, my Song Dynasty will surely rush to crush your bones and throw them into ashes!"
After saying that, he looked back and shouted at the army: "Retreat!"
Chapter completed!
