At this time Diao Chan ran over, knelt in front of Yu Yi, and cried: "Can you please let my mother go for my sake? I have already lost my father, and I don't want to lose my mother again."
Yu Yi looked at Zhang and Zhang Zong on the sentry tower and felt a little soft-hearted. Sikong Xuan on the sentry tower saw that Yu Yi had not given orders for a long time and advised him: "Zhang's intentions are so sinister. If you stay, you will end up in trouble." If he is in serious trouble, he must be put to death!”
Wu Chenggong, Lei Chunze, Huang Shumin, Ye Huatong and others also had the same opinion. As for the villagers of Daoxiang Village, they even demanded that Zhang be killed.
Yuyi hesitated. On the one hand, it was the pleading of his beloved woman, his wife and mother-in-law, who had taken care of him in the early stage. On the other hand, it was the anger and condemnation of the villagers, like a scale that was about to lose its balance. The direction is in Yu Yi's hand.
Mrs. Zhang looked at Yuyi and said with a smile: "Those who achieve great things should not stick to trivial matters. Will you give up your righteousness for a woman?"
Zhang Zong looked back behind him, his legs suddenly felt weak, and he cried bitterly, saying: "This is all Zhang's intention. I was forced, please let me go, I will definitely atone for my sins!"
Zhang's question was very pointed, but Zhang Zong's plea interrupted her, so Yu Yi was not in a hurry to answer.
Everyone's eyes were attracted to Zhang Zong. Mrs. Zhang was very disappointed when she saw Zhang Zong's actions and said angrily: "You and Zhang Kai are the only two people left in my Zhang family. I didn't expect that one of you could turn against you at any time for the village chief. If a person can give up his dignity in order to live, it is time for our Zhang family to decline." After saying that, he actually walked to Zhang Zong and pushed him off the sentry tower. He only saw Zhang Zong scream and fall directly from the sky. Blood splattered five steps.
Yuyi sent people to carry Zhang Zong's body away, and said to Sikong Xuan above: "No matter how we deal with it, let's control her first!"
So Sikong Xuan prepared to lead the elite women to capture the Zhang family. Although Zhang had some martial arts skills, he knew that he could not escape the fate of being captured when surrounded by everyone.
She closed her eyes and recalled: "When you first came to Daoxiang Village, I saw that you were often bullied by others, and I often encouraged you. As the master's wife, I treat you well, but for the sake of the great cause of our Zhang family, I still have to If you go against you, it’s a pity that our Zhang family’s strength has been exhausted, what a pity!”
Feeling that Sikong Xuan and the elite women were gradually shrinking and approaching, Mrs. Zhang sighed several times, and then she continued: "As the master's wife, I want to teach you one last thing, that is, to achieve great things, you must not be like a woman. Ren, for example, right now, you should order my execution without hesitation!”
Sikong Xuan was already very close to Zhang, and when he was about to catch her, he didn't expect that she would jump from the sentry tower with one step.
Zhang's teachings made Yu Yi burst into tears. Seeing Zhang's falling body, Yu Yi and Diao Chan hurried forward, but it was still too late. Zhang slowly closed her eyes, as if time had stopped at that moment. In everyone's astonishment, Zhang's body fell heavily to the ground, and she stopped breathing forever.
Yu Yi stopped and watched as Diao Chan walked to Zhang's corpse, hugging it and crying bitterly.
The rebellion in Daoxiang Village ended in this way. It was Su Daqiang from Qingshui Village, then Li Qingsheng, and now Zhang. The pain of having someone closest to you betray you is so painful.
Yu Yi wiped away his tears and asked Zou to comfort Diao Chan and handle the funeral affairs, and then led the army into Daoxiang Village.
In the hall, Huang Shumin reported the results of the battle. Our side lost more than 30 people, killed more than 1,000 of the opponent's people, and captured 2,000 people. We also captured the opponent's general, killed the opponent's adjutant, and captured food, grass, and horses. Countless.
Yu Yi asked Wu Chenggong and Lei Chunze to count the equipment, Huang Shumin and Ye Huatong to count the prisoners, and then publicly interrogated Le Jin in the hall.
Yu Yi asked people to bring Le Jin up and asked, "Why do you want to attack Daoxiang Village?"
Le Jin said: "I followed Prime Minister Cao's order and came here to attack you."
Yu Yi nodded and said: "You led Cao's army to attack my Daoxiang Village. I naturally know that you were sent by Cao Cao. What I want to ask is, how do you know that I am accumulating strength in Daoxiang Village?"
Le Jin refused to answer, so Yu Yi had to resort to some tricks. Le Jin felt pain and said: "This is the message delivered by the Zhang family in your village to the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister was afraid that you had accumulated strength in Hebei, and originally planned to lead troops to attack him personally. Later, The adviser persuaded you that your team is small and I only need five thousand soldiers and horses."
Yu Yi pointed at Le Jin and said to Sikong Xuan, "How should we deal with it?"
Sikong Xuan thought for a moment and said, "We and Cao Jun have become enemies. Just kill Le Jin and send someone over with his head."
Yu Yi said: "Now that we include the prisoners sent by the other side, we don't have enough soldiers and horses. If Le Jin is killed at this time, the Cao thieves will definitely focus on us, and then send the surrounding soldiers and horses to attack us continuously. Then we There is no way to implement our plan, so I will let Le Jin go and let him assist us."
Sikong Xuan didn't understand. He only saw Yu Yi walking up to Le Jin, personally untying him, and said: "Actually, I have a good relationship with you Prime Minister. I know that you have no choice but to attack us." After that, he sent someone. He brought some money and handed it to Le Jin, smiling and saying: "When you go back, report it in front of the prime minister and tell him that Daoxiang Village was wiped out by you and that the power here no longer exists."
Le Jin was a little confused and said: "My five thousand soldiers and horses were scattered by you. If I go back alone, how can I prove that I destroyed you?"
Yu Yi said: "This is actually very simple. I will return the 2,000 soldiers and horses we captured to you. You can arrange it for other situations. I think it is also a normal loss."
Le Jin did not expect that the other party would let him go and give him money. He felt a little grateful in his heart. He nodded, bowed and expressed his gratitude, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Yu Yi.
I originally thought that Yu Yi had regretted it, but I heard Yu Yi say: "Wait a minute!"
Not long after, Huang Shumin and Ye Huatong came over with the captured troops. Yu Yi pointed at the team and said, "You'd better take these two thousand soldiers and horses back!" After that, he led everyone and took Le Jin and the two thousand troops back. Cao Jun sent him away.
Back in the meeting hall, not only Lei Chunze but also Sikong Xuan also expressed their incomprehension. Yu Yi smiled and explained: "If we kill Le Jin, we will be completely hostile to Cao Cao. Now our road to Yunnan will be There is a large territory owned by Cao Cao. If he mobilizes his forces or even attacks us personally, then we will be in great trouble. Instead of doing this, we might as well play hard to get and let Le Jin take people back and sell him a favor. I believe Le Jin won’t talk nonsense.”
Huang Shumin continued to ask: "We managed to capture more than 2,000 people. Putting them back will reduce our own strength."
Yu Yi pulled Wu Chenggong in front of him and said with a smile: "I think it would be better for him to explain this!"
