After Qian Neng heard this, he became even more desperate. Wu Nian was trying to scare people and send him an archery letter. How can any of these big-headed soldiers not run away?
"It's over. The Nanhai Mansion is over. My head is over, too. Wang Zhongbi. Wang Zhongbi. I was killed by you."
Qian Neng finally couldn't hold it any longer. He had hoped that this guy could still fight. But now he's fine. He's at the end of his rope, so why should he hold it back?
Qian Neng stretched out his hand and pointed at Wang Zhongbi, complaining: "You want money but not your life. It's true that benevolence will be rewarded, and hammer will be hammered."
"It's a pity that I have money and want to build a career and build a career. You killed me."
"Hahaha."
Qian Neng was full of resentment, but he also let out a nervous laugh. Then, he stood up and staggered away.
On ordinary days, Wang Zhongbi would have to quarrel with Qian Neng. But at this time, he just looked up at Qian Neng, exhaled a breath, raised his head, spread his hands, spread his legs, and stared blankly at the beams and tiles.
Unexpected.
Unbelievable.
but. I just gave up my life like this, and I felt reluctant to bear it. After being stunned for a while, Wang Zhongbi had a murderous look on his face. He stood up suddenly, came to the door, and said to a soldier: "Send the order. Anyone who dares to leave the city of Ke County without permission will be killed without mercy."
"Yes." The soldier responded in fear, turned around and went down.
"The trapped beast is still fighting. You can't just sit still and wait for death." A fierce look flashed across Wang Zhongbi's face, he clenched his right fist and hit the doorpost hard.
The trees want to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop.
When the general trend is inevitable, it cannot be stopped by human power. Although Wang Zhongbi issued the order, the town of Ke County was shrouded in strangeness.
No soldier wanted to win, and not many soldiers even cared about Wang Zhongbi.
The soldiers didn't speak. They were banned. But silence is better than sound. They can communicate privately, eye to eye, and even in writing.
The day passes and the night comes. Despite Wang Zhongbi's "Kill without mercy" order, there was still a group or several soldiers who took out ropes and other tools, climbed onto the city wall, left the city, and plunged into the darkness.
This is no longer a release of water, but a massive flood that has destroyed the dam.
The floods were overwhelming.
The cause Wang Zhongbi planted finally bore fruit.
Early the next morning. Wang Zhongbi opened his eyes and saw a soldier standing in front of his bed, with a horrified expression and he hesitated to speak.
Wang Zhongbi tossed and turned last night and finally fell asleep, having a sweet dream. Now back to reality.
"Tell me. How many people escaped?" Wang Zhongbi sighed, sat up from the bed, and shook his groggy head.
"The specific number of deserters has not yet been calculated by each ministry. But after some estimates, there are no less than 2,000 deserters." The soldier replied in fear.
"Ha. Two thousand people fled in one night. Doesn't it mean that in just ten days, there will be no one in my city?" Wang Zhongbi laughed out loud while enjoying himself. But soon he said decadently: "It won't take ten days. As long as the news spreads, there will definitely be more deserters tonight. In less than three days, there will be no one in the city."
The soldiers became more and more frightened when they heard this, and finally couldn't help but asked: "General, what should we do?"
"Have eaten and drank enough. Of the thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy. In the evening we will walk from the west city gate, bring enough luggage, and take a long way back to Zhili."
The soldiers were all confidants. Wang Zhongbi did not hide anything and spoke openly.
There is not only one way from Shanhaiguan back to Guanzhong from outside the customs. You can return to Zhili by going west through the Daxinganling Mountains and then south through the Yanshan Mountains.
It’s just that the road is dangerous and the risks are high. But there is still a way, which is much better than dying in Ke County or being captured by Wu Nian.
As long as he returns to the court, even if he is defeated and loses Nanhai Mansion. He also has a way to save his own life.
Money can make all the difference. There is no problem in this world that money cannot solve.
The soldier felt certain when he heard this and nodded. immediately. Wang Zhongbi asked his soldiers to bring him wine and food, and then he went to wash himself. In addition, he secretly asked his soldiers to gather his most trusted three thousand soldiers and prepare to leave at night.
Staying in this place is really like a year. Wang Zhongbi finally waited until evening, went out, took hundreds of his own soldiers, and came to the Governor's Yamen.
"Now that things have happened, what else do you have to say?" In the study, Qian Neng raised his head and sneered at Wang Zhongbi who came in.
"I plan to leave at night. Do you want to come with me?" Wang Zhongbi came to Qian Neng and asked in a low voice.
They were as powerful as fire and water, but now they are a grasshopper on a rope. It would be beneficial and harmless to go back to the court together so that we could share the blame.
"I'm not as shameless as you. I would rather die in Liaodong than go back and live." Qian Neng said lightly, but he didn't appreciate it.
"Hmph." Wang Zhongbi put his hot face against his cold buttocks, snorted coldly, turned around and left.
"Afraid of death, greedy for money and lustful. How could the court use a person like you?" Qian Neng sneered and said.
late at night.
Inside the west gate of the city. Wang Zhongbi wore heavy armor and rode a tall horse, surrounded by three thousand fully armed soldiers.
Although these are Wang Zhongbi's most trusted elite soldiers, among whom there are a thousand personal soldiers. But the faces of the soldiers were not good-looking, and their morale was low.
Wang Zhongbi raised the golden riding whip in his hand and shouted: "Brothers, there is no more to say. As long as you can keep me going back to Guanzhong. Gold, silver, money, women, land. I, Wang Zhongbi, will never treat you badly."
Under heavy reward.
The morale of the three thousand soldiers cheered up slightly, and their faces looked better than before.
Wang Zhongbi nodded, waved his hand, and asked his soldiers to go up and open the city gate. Then he led three thousand soldiers and horses into the night.
The coaches are gone.
Ran.
The remaining soldiers originally wanted to run away. At this time, I was at a loss. They looked at each other in silence as they watched Wang Zhongbi's army plunge into the darkness.
"Da da da!!!"
Human voices and horses neighed, and the sounds of footsteps and horse hooves were chaotic. Under the banner with the word "king", Wang Zhongbi held a horse spear eight feet long in his hand and steered his horse forward. A happy look gradually appeared on his face, and the big stone in his chest fell.
The most feared thing about withdrawing troops at night is that they will start to be intercepted. The farther you go, the harder it is to intercept.
"As long as I go back to Zhili and don't talk about making a comeback, I will definitely be a rich man and take care of myself for the rest of my life." Wang Zhongbi thought to himself. My heart has flown back to Chu State, dreaming of a better life after retirement.
"Da da da!!!"
At this moment, the rapid sound of horse hooves, accompanied by the trembling of the earth, struck from the south.
"Wang Zhongbi please leave!!!"
A shout turned into a soul-stirring chain, entangled around him. Wang Zhongbi and his army were shocked. The blood on his face dissipated in an instant and was replaced by paleness.
