Hearing this, Meng Bozhao looked at Song Yan and asked, "Mr. Song, do you have any good suggestions?"
"This man is so arrogant, let's kill his prestige first, pull him down and beat him with twenty military sticks before we talk!" Song Yan said in a calm tone.
"Then do as Mr. Song said!" Meng Bozhao nodded, feeling that this arrogant guy should be shown how powerful he must be: "Come here, drag this man down and beat him with twenty army sticks!"
"How dare you, I am Zhao Yan's staff, General Zhao Guo Zuo. If you dare to touch a hair on my head, General Zhao Yan will never let you go!" Tu Xiu couldn't help being frightened when he heard that he was going to hit him with a military stick, and he quickly shouted in fear. stand up.
Two soldiers rushed in and dragged him out of the lobby. Soon, there was a shrill scream, which made Shen Du frightened. In China, the status of scholars is quite high. There is a saying: The punishment is not good enough for the scholar-bureaucrats.
Nowadays, the military stick used to beat Tu Xiu has violated the point that punishment cannot be used to punish a scholar-official. However, he was still a guilty person, so naturally he did not dare to say anything more.
"Lord Shendu City.\"
"The official is here."
"You go to appease the soldiers and civilians in the city first, and leave this place to me!"
"Yes, I am resigning."
As soon as Shen Du left, Meng Bozhao couldn't help but have a look of deep concern and concern on his face: "Master Song, how should we deal with the Zhao army next?"
"The soldiers will block it, and the water will flood the soil! Leave it to me to handle the matter of Zhao's army!" Song Yan waved his hand disapprovingly.
Hearing this, Meng Bozhao couldn't help but feel happy, but immediately his heart sank again. This Zhao army was not one or two thousand people. General Zhao Yan of the left commanded more than fifteen thousand people. Although Song Yan was very powerful, he could handle it. There are hundreds of people, but facing an army of 15,000, I am afraid that even gods will have difficulty defeating it.
"I wonder how Mr. Song plans to deal with this Zhao army!"
"Why, General Meng doesn't believe me?" Song Yan said solemnly.
"Don't dare!" Meng Bozhao said quickly.
"Don't worry, I have my own way." Song Yan smiled again. At this moment, the soldiers came in and reported that they had finished beating Tu Xiu with twenty army sticks.
"Bring him in!" Song Yan said coldly.
"yes!"
Soon, Tu Xiu, whose butt was already bloody, was dragged in by two soldiers. It seemed that the two soldiers were very cruel.
The two soldiers threw Tu Xiu to the ground and retreated.
Tu Xiu, on the other hand, gritted his teeth and stared at Song Yan and Meng Bozhao with hatred, saying in a hateful voice: "Meng Bozhao, the punishment is not good enough for a scholar-bureaucrat. You humiliate me like this. If the scholars in the world know about it, you will become the public enemy of scholars!"
Suddenly, Meng Bozhao's face suddenly changed, revealing a trace of worry.
"It seems that we haven't beaten you enough! You dare to threaten General Meng." Song Yan smiled teasingly: "Well, I'll cut off one of your fingers first! If you don't cooperate again, I'll cut off two of your fingers. I'd like to see what you have." How many fingers have I cut off
After cutting off your fingers, cut off your toes. If you still refuse to cooperate, cut off your tongue and nose! "
Song Yan said it in such an understatement, but Tu Xiu was frightened and frightened when he heard it. "Stop talking! I will tell you whatever you want to ask. I just hope you will give me a happy time!"
"Isn't it right?" Song Yan curled his lips: "General Meng, you come and ask."
Meng Bozhao nodded, looked at Tu Xiu and asked, "How many troops did Zhao Yan bring this time?"
"Twenty thousand troops!" Tu Xiu replied truthfully.
Hearing that Zhao Yan actually brought 20,000 troops, Meng Bozhao changed his expression again and continued to ask: "Where will they be stationed?"
"Eighty miles to the east!"
"When does Zhao Yan plan to attack the city?"
"In three days at most, I made an agreement with the general before I came to the border. If I don't return within the next three days, he will lead an army to attack the city!"
Later, Meng Bozhao asked Tu Xiu how many auxiliary troops Zhao Yan had brought and how many grains and grass he had brought.
"I've said everything I need to say, General Meng, please kill me!" Tu Xiu begged.
"If I give you a chance to live, would you be willing to join His Highness the Crown Prince?" Song Yan asked again. The other party dared to take two of his subordinates to Linbian alone to persuade Shen Du to surrender. This shows that this person not only has a plan, but also Have courage.
If it hadn't been for his appearance, Prince Jiang Dan and Meng Bozhao would have fallen into his hands.
His first task was to help Jiang Dan restore his country, and now Jiang Dan could be said to be a bare commander, with neither soldiers nor advisers. It was out of this consideration that Song Yan opened his mouth to recruit Tu Xiu.
Hearing Song Yan's solicitation, Tu Xiu couldn't help but his eyes lit up, but immediately dimmed again: "My whole family, young and old, are all in the Zhao Kingdom. If we surrender, my whole family, young and old, will have no chance of surviving, so you might as well kill me!"
"It's simple. I can let General Meng declare to the outside world that you have been killed. Then you can change your name and identity to be loyal to the prince. As for your family, I will help you rescue them when I have a chance! What do you think?"
"This...?" After hearing Song Yan's suggestion, Tu Xiu showed hesitation.
At this moment, Song Yan's figure flashed and came to Tu Xiu, and then placed a palm mark on his back.
The magical power of life stimulates.
In just a few seconds, Tu Xiu was shocked to find that the injury on his hip had healed.
"This... Mr. Song, what happened to my injury? How did it get better?" Tu Xiu subconsciously touched his buttocks and found that the beaten buttocks had indeed become intact. He couldn't help but stare at Song Yan in shock.
Song Yan smiled proudly: "To tell you the truth, I once worshiped an immortal as my teacher in an overseas fairy mountain. Although I am not qualified enough to learn many immortal techniques, I can still treat your minor injury easily!"
"What!"
"What!"
Meng Bozhao and Tu Xiu exclaimed at the same time.
Immediately, the doubts in Meng Bozhao's heart suddenly disappeared. No wonder Master Song was so tyrannical in force. He turned out to be the apprentice of the immortal. Seeing that Master Song actually intended to assist His Highness the Crown Prince, wouldn't there be hope for the restoration of our Qi Kingdom
After a brief moment of shock, Tu Xiu knelt down at Song Yan's feet and said in a sincere tone: "I am willing to join Mr. Song!"
"No, you should join the prince!" Song Yan said.
"Yes! I would like to join the Crown Prince!" Tu Xiu said quickly.
"Since Tu Xiu's name cannot be used, from now on you can call him Song Xiu!"
"Thank you Mr. Song for the name!" Song Xiu said with gratitude.
At this moment, Shen Du came in a hurry, his face full of panic: "Oh no, Mr. Song, General Meng, my detective horses have detected that the Zhao army is less than fifty miles away from Linbian, and they will approach the city at noon tomorrow at most!" "
"Don't panic, leave this matter to me!" Song Yan said in a deep voice.
That night, Song Yan left Linbian City and headed fifty miles east, where the Zhao army was stationed.
Fifty miles would probably take seven or eight hours for ordinary people to travel, but at Song Yan's speed, in less than forty minutes, he had appeared on a mountaintop near the army.
