Erma immediately panicked.
He was very nervous inside.
He didn't want to die.
Thinking quickly, Erma said, "I surrender. I'm willing to surrender. Don't kill me."
Du Qi's lips curled into a cold smile. "You're willing to surrender?"
"Yes, yes, I surrender!"
Erma said hurriedly.
However, Erma still looked down on Du Qi and believed that Du Qi was no match for Nicholas Tu. After all, Nicholas Tu was the governor of Songyang County and was very powerful.
Du Qi was just an outsider.
Therefore, when Erma surrendered, he only wanted to save his own life first and think about other things later.
Du Qi didn't believe Erma's words either.
Du Qi said, "Erma, since you've surrendered, what about Nicholas Tu? Tell me, where is Nicholas Tu's food stockpiled? Now, his army was marching straight into Fushan County. Without food, he's going in alone. "
Erma said, "There's no food. It's all long-distance supply."
Du Qi said, "Do you really think I'm stupid enough to believe you? You should know that there's a county between Fushan County and Pandu County, and it's not Nicholas Tu's territory. Under such circumstances, he's going in alone without food. The consequences will be unimaginable if his food supply route is cut off. "
"Besides, even if he can intimidate the county magistrate of Yongye County, he's still a nobody. The problem is, what if the county magistrate of Yongye County has a screw loose and wants to attack Nicholas Tu's food supply route? "
"So, Nicholas Tu must have brought food."
"There's no doubt about that. It's impossible that he doesn't have a place to store food."
Du Qi's eyes were sharp. "Erma, tell me honestly, and I'll immediately send people to attack. As long as we win this battle, I'll believe that you're willing to submit. If you fail in this battle, then you can die. "
Whoosh!
Erma's expression changed drastically.
He wanted to deceive Du Qi. As long as he submitted to Du Qi, he would be able to keep his life. Later on, when Nicholas Tu conquered Fushan County, he would return to Nicholas Tu's side.
However, Du Qi did not give him the chance.
Most importantly, Du Qi's vision was extremely accurate. He could tell at a glance that there must be some in the granary.
What to do?
Erma took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Du Qi, I'll be honest with you. We really don't have a granary! When Nicholas Butcher went to war, he never brought food with him. He would travel long distances and then directly attack. This was to cut off the path of retreat and boost the morale of the army. Only then can we unleash the combat power of the army and achieve victory. "
Du Qi said, "Nicholas Butcher wanted to cut off the retreat and attack, so why did he retreat today?"
Erma froze.
In this matter, Du Qi immediately saw through the trick.
Du Qi waved his hand and said, "Forget it. If you don't want to surrender, then forget it. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you surrender or not. Your existence won't affect the development of this battle. "
"Men, take him away and behead him. I can't be bothered to use him later."
"Kill him and intimidate Nicholas Butcher."
"After we kill him, hang his corpse on the city gate tower. Once Nicholas Butcher sees it, he'll naturally be afraid. This is killing the chicken to scare the monkey. "
Du Qi said, "Take him away."
The soldiers entered, picked up Erma, and began to walk out.
Erma didn't struggle in the beginning, but when he was dragged all the way to the door, he truly began to panic, and he was unable to control his emotions any longer. Fear welled up in his heart as he yelled, "I surrender, Du Qi! I really do surrender! I know the location of Nicholas Butcher's granary. I'm willing to cooperate. I'm willing to cooperate. "
Du Qi raised his hand to stop the soldier, who immediately stopped him.
Erma broke free from the soldier's grasp and ran back. He fell to his knees and shouted, "I surrender. I'm willing to surrender. Don't kill me. I don't want to die. I'll cooperate and tell you the location of the granary. "
Du Qi said, "Erma, remember what I just said. If the location of the granary is wrong and my army fails to destroy Nicholas Butcher's granary, you'll still die. "
"It can't be wrong, it can't be wrong."
Erma hurriedly shook his head and said, "I remember it very clearly. Nicholas Butcher's granary is in the Yellow Wind Ridge, fifteen miles southeast of Fushan County. It's an open area with no water or trees. It's very difficult to attack with water or fire. There are about a thousand soldiers stationed in the granary, and the leader is one of Nicholas Butcher's generals. "
Du Qi said, "Are you done?"
"Yes!"
Erma replied confidently.
He said solemnly, "You must be careful after you go there. This army is extremely elite. The leader is also one of Nicholas Butcher's most elite generals. His strength is extraordinary. "
Du Qi chuckled. "Nicholas Butcher's generals? Nicholas Butcher's subordinates are a bunch of chickens and dogs, not worth mentioning. There's no such thing as generals. But my men won't be careless either. "
"Men, summon Mordor!"
Du Qi immediately gave the order.
After the soldier passed on the order, Mordor soon arrived. He stood still and said, "Young Master."
Du Qi said, "Immediately mobilize eight hundred cavalrymen and get ready. After dark, rush to the Yellow Wind Ridge fifteen miles southeast of Fushan County. Nicholas Butcher's granary is stationed there. Once you arrive, light the hay on fire and ignite the outside of the granary. This will force the enemy to fight a decisive battle. Then, kill your way into the granary and burn it down. "
"Yes!"
Mordor immediately replied.
To him, going out to fight was a good thing.
Although Mordor was Du Qi's personal guard, he was actually quite eager to learn. Not only was he good at martial arts, but Mordor had also led troops into battle and commanded troops over the years. He had no problem commanding troops and could use them as if they were his own arms.
After hearing Du Qi's orders, Erma knew that the Yellow Wind Ridge was finished.
Once the hay was thrown over, the fire would spread and become difficult to control. Under such circumstances, although the Yellow Wind Ridge had elites stationed there, they might not be able to hold it.
But Erma couldn't care less about this now.
He had sold out the granary and could no longer turn back. He could only work for Du Qi.
Erma said, "Young Master Du, I've said everything I need to say. This matter is absolutely true. Young Master Wang, can you spare me? Don't worry, I'll work hard for you. "
Du Qi said, "As long as Mordor wins tonight, your safety is guaranteed. Tonight, your life and death will be decided. I hope you're telling the truth. "
Erma said, "Everything I said is true."
Du Qi didn't say anything else to Erma. He waved his hand and the soldier took Erma away.
