Tang Feng's actions angered the Dongshan Army and the Split Mountain Army. Arrows whizzed across the sky, and huge rocks were thrown at the city from time to time, making everyone panic.
Compared to the nervousness of many officials, Tang Feng, who had found a safe place to hide, was much calmer.
He signaled to his confidants, who quickly understood what Tang Feng meant and rushed out despite the risk.
These people were not deliberately seeking death. Those who rushed out with them included Su Qi'an's relatives and friends.
This was the confidence Tang Feng had to provoke the army. Qin Ziyin, Lu Xiaowan and others were held hostage and quickly pushed to the top of the city tower.
There was no need to say anything when they saw Qin Ziyin and others being coerced into being hostages on the tower.
The arrows that were shot towards the city of Sichuandu County in a steady stream became much weaker immediately. After a while, the arrows that were shot all over the sky gradually stopped attacking.
Even the enraged army forcibly stopped when it was less than forty feet away from Sichuandu County.
Each of them had strong anger on their faces, cursing Tang Feng for being despicable and shameless.
Feeling the curses under the city wall, Tang Feng was not angry at all. On the contrary, he had a proud smile on his face.
Without hesitation, he walked towards the city tower with steps. He was not worried at all that Su Qi'an would send someone to attack him at this moment.
If something happened to him, Su Qian's family and friends would be buried with him.
This was the reason why Tang Feng dared to take risks regardless of Tang Xiao's life.
If he only had Qin Ziyin and Lu Xiaowan in his hands, maybe he really planned to make a deal with Su Qi'an.
But he had in his hands not only Su Qi'an's two wives, but also a number of other relatives and friends.
If you want to exchange Tang Xiao for so many people, this is a very losing deal.
It was impossible for Tang Feng to do this, even if it meant sacrificing Tang Xiao.
The Su Qi'an of today is far from the one who fled in embarrassment three years ago.
Not only did he control the Dongshan Army, but he also controlled Jiaozhou. This time, the number of troops dispatched reached 60,000 in one breath.
This scale and strength should not be underestimated. If he had just started, Tang Feng might have thought about trying to make friends with such people.
But the feud between the two sides has long been forged. What Tang Feng can do now is to get rid of Su Qi'an at all costs.
Such a person is no longer the scholar who did not have any power and only relied on a little talent to succeed.
He is a prince, holds a heavy army, and is recognized by His Majesty as a member of the royal family.
Such people, if not killed, would already be a scourge now.
Getting rid of Su Qi'an is what Tang Feng must do immediately.
It's just that he underestimated Su Qi'an after all. The good opportunity just now saved Su Qi'an's life.
But with Qin Ziyin and Lu Xiaowan as trump cards, he has the ability to check and balance Su Qi'an.
The effect of pushing these people out was obvious. Even though Su Qi'an's army was angry and full of anger, in order to ensure the safety of Su Qi'an's relatives and friends, they could only stop the attack. .
This feeling of handling Su Qi'an made Tang Feng feel quite happy.
If you have something that the opponent is afraid of, no matter how strong your opponent is, you have to think twice.
Tang Feng's pride was undisguised, and he even said some mocking words about Su Qi'an.
Taking this opportunity, he wanted to anger Su Qian.
Su Qian's face was gloomy, but he had been restrained from beginning to end and was not swayed by the emotions that came to his mind.
But the people behind him couldn't help but say, "Sir, this man named Tang is so despicable and shameless. I don't believe it. He is so cruel and ignores his own son."
"Sir, give Tang Xiao to me. Don't Tang Feng want to play? We will play with him and let Tang Feng see if his son can remain indifferent when his son is being abused."
"That's right, sir, give the order!"
All the generals spoke in agreement. In their eyes,
, since you can't touch Tang Feng, then touch Tang Xiao.
Faced with the abuse of his own son, he didn't believe that Tang Feng could laugh.
Everyone was filled with indignation, but Su Qian didn't say anything. He turned his eyes and looked at Tang Xiao beside him.
At this time, Tang Xiao was sitting on the ground. Instead of being calm at first, his face was full of despair, his eyes were distracted, and his mouth was muttering softly.
"How is it possible, how is it possible that father would kill me regardless of my life? This is not true, it must be a lie! I am very important in father's heart..."
Obviously, Tang Feng's behavior when he ordered the attack just now not only scared Tang Xiao, but also gave him a big blow.
As the old saying goes, a tiger cannot eat its own children, but Tang Feng is an exception. In order to achieve his own goals, he would sacrifice his own son. This kind of person is really ruthless, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a madman.
If he really followed the thoughts of the soldiers behind him and tortured Tang Xiao in front of Tang Feng, he would definitely not get Tang Feng to compromise. Instead, he would get even more crazy revenge.
When dealing with people like Tang Feng, we must not use common sense to solve the problem.
Su Qi'an suppressed the anger that welled up in her heart, looked up at Tang Feng on the tower, and said coldly.
"Tang Feng, people like you are indeed despicable and insidious. I don't have time to go around in circles with you. Tell me what you want!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Dongshan Hou, even now, you are still so arrogant. Those who don't know think that Honshu has been defeated in this battle."
"What I want to do is very simple. Let your army retreat thirty miles and make a truce between the two sides. I want to keep your family and friends safe. I want to give you a chance to kill yourself on the spot. I will guarantee the safety of your family and friends."
"Tang Feng, you are seeking death!"
"Believe it or not, let me show you that your son died in front of you!"
Before Su Qian could speak, Su Yong behind him said angrily.
At the same time, a group of archers behind him had already aimed at Tang Feng on the tower, and could shoot Tang Feng at any time.
Tang Feng didn't care at all about the anger of Su Yong and others. He looked at Su Qi'an and said coldly.
"Marquis Dongshan, it is normal to exchange one life for another, but this state has shown great kindness to you by exchanging your life for the lives of these dozen people. Don't push yourself too far."
"As for Honshu's son, yes, this should be your greatest support and the one that Honshu fears the most."
"But when it comes to big things, our state can still distinguish between right and wrong. If you don't dare to take action, our state will follow your wishes and do it yourself."
"Tang Feng, you are really a lunatic!" Su Qi'an said coldly.
Tang Feng smiled and said nothing, waiting for Su Qi'an to make a choice.
Each of Tang Feng's two conditions seemed very poisonous. The former allowed Su Qi'an's army to retreat while both sides rested and recuperated.
In fact, it was to buy time for Guangyang and Yongan counties on the two wings.
Originally, the battle between the two wings mainly focused on the core city of Sichuandu.
If the fighting in the core Sichuandu County stops, as the two wings, the winner will be determined, or the two sides will be in a stalemate and choose to withdraw their troops.
Once the troops are withdrawn, it means that this war in Xizhou, which has been the upper hand since the beginning, will quickly turn into a disadvantage.
Give Tang Feng more time to deploy his troops and generals. Then it will be at least twice as difficult to attack Sichuandu County.
In marching and fighting, the emphasis is on making a strong effort at one go, then weakening again, and finally exhausting yourself in three attempts.
After they occupied Manghuang County, they rested for many days. Everyone was holding a breath in their hearts. Now that this breath has not been vented, it will definitely affect their morale.
If it only affects morale, forget it. After all, their backbone Su Qian is still there.
Su Qi'an's personal charm alone was enough to revive the fallen morale.
But Tang Feng's second condition was the most unacceptable to them.
Letting Su Qian commit suicide on the spot would not damage morale, but would cause a large number of soldiers in the army to collapse.
In their hearts, Su Qi'an is not just a commander-in-chief, but a spiritual belief.
Once Su Qian really
If you commit suicide, most of the Jiaozhou soldiers will be useless.
This is what they find most unacceptable and extremely angry.
Su Qi'an turned around, calmed the excited people a little, then turned around and looked at Tang Fengdao.
"Tang Feng, of the two conditions you set, I can accept the former, but I reject the latter. You want me to commit suicide. You are not qualified yet!"
"Hahaha, Honshu knew that Marquis Dongshan would say this, so it looks like we won't have to talk about it anymore."
"Since Marquis Dongshan is so stubborn, I won't force myself to do anything to others. Let's forget about committing suicide."
After Tang Feng said this, he gestured with his eyes. The man in black standing behind Qin Ziyin, Lu Xiaowan and others stepped forward and raised the sword in his hand.
"Since Dongshan Hou is so tough-minded, this state must also show its strength. Let's pick one of these people. I think I will choose County Magistrate Zhou Qi. Only in this way can he be worthy of Dongshan Hou's tough talk."
"Tang Feng, how dare you!" Su Qian was startled and said angrily.
Tang Feng turned a blind eye to Su Qi'an's angry rebuke. The man in black standing behind Zhou Qi raised his sword high and slashed it down hard.
Tang Feng sneered on his face, not even looking at Zhou Qi who was about to die. His eyes were fixed on Su Qi'an who was angry but could do nothing.
For being able to tolerate Su Qi'an for so long, Tang Feng has given Su Qi'an a lot of face.
This time, Su Qi'an would not bow down unless he killed the chicken to scare the monkeys, and Zhou Qi was the first one Tang Feng operated on.
If Su Qi'an remains stubborn and continues to speak harshly, Tang Feng will let Su Qi'an see his relatives and friends die tragically in front of him one by one.
Just when Tang Feng was looking forward to it, Su Qi'an was powerless and wanted him to surrender and beg for mercy. Suddenly, a cry of surprise sounded from behind him.
"Sir, be careful!"
Tang Feng turned around and saw a flash of sword heading towards him.
Tang Feng reacted in time and turned his body quickly, but the sword light was very fast. The moment Tang Feng avoided it, it still struck his left arm.
Immediately, blood spattered, Tang Feng wailed, covering his injured left arm, and retreated continuously.
Fortunately, several men in black appeared beside him in time and quickly protected Tang Feng.
"Li Quan, are you crazy? You dare to assassinate Zhou Mu!"
An angry shout rang out from several people in black. Tang Feng looked up. The person who attacked him was none other than one of the men in black who was planning to take Zhou Qi's life.
