"Men, take down Su Dingfang."
Mordor gave the order. Zhou Xu and the rest quickly went forward and detained Su Dingfang. Then, Mordor looked at Fu Junheng and the rest of the guards and said, "Su Dingfang has been defeated. Those who surrender will not be killed. Those who do not surrender will be killed without mercy! "
There were still bad people blocking the roads.
Moreover, the killing had not started yet. Once it started, none of Su Dingfang's men would be able to escape. Even if Su Dingfang brought cavalry, they would not be able to escape. When Su Dingfang was captured alive, Fu Junheng sighed and said, "I surrender!"
The rest of the guards dismounted and surrendered.
Zhou Xu once again arranged for people to go forward and take everyone down.
Fu Junheng looked at Lai Ji and said, "Lai Ji, my father has taken medicine. It's already late at night. When will you give him the antidote? We can't delay it! "
Lai Ji chuckled and said, "Senior Fu, don't worry. The pill your father took is actually to relax the muscles and promote blood circulation. It's not a big deal. The reason why I gave your father the medicine is to stabilize you. As long as you and Su Dingfang make preparations, Su Dingfang will go to the Fu family. Then, Su Dingfang will not be able to escape. With Mordor around, it won't be difficult to capture Su Dingfang alive. "
Fu Junheng was a little angry when he heard this.
He was angry that he was deceived.
But he was also glad that his father's body was fine and not affected.
Su Dingfang was a little listless now. His whole body was in pain. Especially his internal organs, they felt like they were being pricked by needles. When he stood, his back was a little bent and he could not stand up straight. He looked at Lai Ji and said, "Lai Ji, you are really scheming. At the beginning, you kidnapped Senior Fu's father. In fact, you had already started to plan from that time. "
Lai Ji said, "Yes!"
Su Dingfang said again, "From the beginning to the end, you did not let Mordor appear. This means that none of us are aware of your plans. If Mordor had appeared at that time and Senior Fu had seen Mordor, then it would have been difficult for you to ambush me this time. "
Lai Ji said, "Governor Su is right. From the start, Mordor was my trump card. Even if you don't fight with Mordor when you get to the Five Star Lane, the rest of the bad guys will keep you busy. You won't be able to escape. "
"As long as Mordor gets close to you, you won't be able to escape. This is because there is a great disparity in strength between the two of you. As long as you are entangled with Mordor, you will lose without a doubt. "
"Governor Su, you will definitely lose."
After pausing for a moment, Lai Ji continued, "To be honest, His Majesty has considered that if we forcefully attack the city, we will lose countless soldiers. That's why he adopted this strategy."
Su Dingfang snorted and said no more.
If he wanted to hide this time, the only way was to remain on the city gate tower. As long as he remained on the city gate tower, he wouldn't be affected and wouldn't fall into Lai Ji's trap. However, it was too late now.
Lai Ji looked at Zhou Xu and said, "Zhou Xu, release the whistling arrow and inform the scouts outside the city. We will head to the west city soon and prepare to open the city gates to welcome His Majesty's army. "
"Yes!"
After Zhou Xu received the order, he immediately took out the whistling arrow and released it. The whistling arrow was similar to a cannon. After it was ignited, the gunpowder rose into the air. Not only was there fire, but there was also a sharp sound.
Even from afar, one could see it clearly.
Three rockets rose into the air.
This was the news that Lai Ji had agreed to with the scouts outside the city. As the news spread, Lai Ji brought Zhou Xu, Mordor, as well as Su Dingfang and Fu Junheng to the city gates. At the same time, the scouts outside the city noticed the whistling arrow and immediately returned to inform Lai Ji. The moment the news reached Du Qi's ears, Du Qi ordered the troops to move out.
The army wasn't far from the west city, so when the news came, Du Qi led the army to move out. Because it was nighttime, the army carried torches as they hurried along. Soon, they arrived outside the city and waited quietly.
Shangguan Yi and Ma Zhou were both beside Du Qi.
Shangguan Yi said, "Your Majesty, Lai Ji helped Your Majesty take down Su Dingfang without sacrificing a single soldier. Taking down the county town this time will be of great help to us in this battle. Even if the Tang dynasty sends troops, we can use Guazhou City as a defense and slowly negotiate with the Tang dynasty. "
Du Qi said, "Guazhou City is indeed important. At this point, the war is more or less half over. Next, we just have to wait for Li Shimin to lead the army. "
Shangguan Yi nodded, his face full of expectation.
The Tang dynasty's strength was indeed tyrannical.
But it was only so-so.
While Du Qi and the others waited, Lai Ji led them to the city gate. When they appeared, the army in the city immediately responded. However, when the soldiers arrived, they found that Su Dingfang and Fu Junheng had been taken down, so they were immediately at a loss.
Su Dingfang ordered the guards to stay, but with Su Dingfang around, Lai Ji ordered the guards to retreat with a few words, and the bad people under his command directly went forward to open the city gate.
The inner city and barbican gates opened at the same time, and the soldiers lined up at the gates. Burning torches dispelled the darkness, allowing Du Qi to see the situation outside the city gate.
Seeing this, Du Qi immediately ordered Xue Rengui to lead a small number of soldiers into the city. In a short time, Xue Rengui entered the city and took over the defense of the west city, while Du Qi led the army into the city.
Du Qi's army quickly took over the defense of the entire city of Guazhou. In a short time, all four city gates of Guazhou were controlled by Du Qi's people. At this time, Du Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
There was no room for mistakes in the whole process.
Once there was a mistake, the whole plan would be affected.
Du Qi went to the city gate tower and saw Su Dingfang and Fu Junheng being detained. Du Qi's expression seemed to be emotional as he said, "Brother Su, I didn't expect that when we meet again today, it would be in such a situation. It really makes one sigh."
"Come, untie Su Dingfang."
Du Qi directly ordered.
Shangguan Yi reminded, "Your Majesty, Su Dingfang is a martial artist. His martial arts are extremely powerful. Once he is untied, I'm afraid it will be disadvantageous to you and also a threat. I think it's better to detain him. "
Du Qi said, "No need!"
"Untie him!"
Du Qi ordered again.
The soldiers immediately untied Su Dingfang. After Su Dingfang's hands and feet were released, he looked at Du Qi and said, "Emperor Xia, it's indeed a pity that we meet like this today. However, I don't think it's a wise move for Emperor Xia to take over Guazhou. Guazhou belongs to the Tang dynasty. Even if Emperor Xia took it, he might not be able to defend it. Especially when Emperor Xia openly took over the territory of the Tang dynasty. When the news reaches Chang 'an, it will cause a huge shock. The court will be in an uproar and the public will be furious. His Majesty will definitely send troops. "
Du Qi smiled and said, "Brother Su, I didn't say that I have to stay in Guazhou. This time, I'm only here because Hou Junji sent people to assassinate me. The Tang dynasty should give me an explanation. "
When Su Dingfang heard this, he squinted his eyes and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
He understood Du Qi's intention. Du Qi killed his way into Guazhou to vent his anger. At the same time, Du Qi wanted to let the Tang dynasty give him some benefits. This was because Du Qi was not one to suffer losses.
After Su Dingfang understood, he said, "Emperor Xia's plan is indeed good. However, the final situation and the extent of the development may not be as good as Emperor Xia expected."
Du Qi shrugged and said with a smile, "Brother Su, you don't have to worry about these things. Now that Brother Su has lost, I only have one thing to ask. Are you willing to serve me? "
