Two days later, Zhao Guang and Li Yi led a team of troops back to Wei County.
It turned out that Zhuge Liang learned that Lu Kai had been kidnapped, and quickly sent Zhao Guang and Li Yi to bring people back to see if there was any way to rescue Lu Gongcao. Unexpectedly, he just returned to Wei County and found that Lu Kai was safe and sound.
However, Zhao Guang and Li Yi's trip was not in vain. When they returned, Wei County finally had enough manpower.
Lu Kai wants to go back to Jincheng to meet Jun. He has been delaying the trip for many days.
Guan Xing also wants to return to Jincheng to recuperate. After all, the climate in Nanzhong is not friendly to him, and Guan Ji is not worried about him staying here.
Moreover, after this malaria episode and the process of malaria treatment, Guan Xing probably also had a certain psychological shadow on Nanzhong.
So on the second day after Zhao Guang and Li Yi returned with their people, they directly detached a part of their troops to escort them back.
As for the southwest side of Dianchi Lake, Zhuge Liang and Li Hui's military strength increased greatly after they joined forces. They quickly captured and released Meng Huo twice, just like a cat playing with a mouse.
"Wow, brother, this Meng Huo is too thick-skinned. This is the third time, and every time he says that the next time he is caught, he will surrender as a whole family. Are barbarians just rude and don't even understand the most basic principles of trustworthiness? "
Then soon he was arrested for the third time. Zhao Guang held the official document with an indignant look on his face.
"It's better if he doesn't surrender. If he does, who will help the prime minister find those officials hiding in the mountains?"
Feng Yongcai didn't care about Meng Huo. His fate was already determined, so there was no need to care about him anymore.
What we need to care about now is to quickly inspect the farming situation in Nanzhong while we have enough people around us and some free time.
But before going out for inspection, there is one more person to deal with.
"Come on, follow me to see that Eshun."
Eshun actually woke up on the second day, could sit up on the same day, and was able to get off the ground on the third day. His life was indeed tough, and his physical fitness was also very good.
It's just that he has never said a word since he woke up and knew that he was arrested.
He drank when he was thirsty, ate when he was hungry, slept when he was sleepy, and was in a daze when he couldn't sleep. He stayed in a daze all day without knowing what he was thinking.
Eshun is a strong man, and anyone who can use the Fangtian Halberd is considered a master. An ordinary general might not be able to do this, let alone do it well.
In the later period of the Han Dynasty when talents are withering, if you can give the Han Dynasty one more powerful general, it will give you more strength.
So Feng Yong thought about trying to persuade Eshun.
Of course, Feng Yong couldn't be persuaded and he wouldn't force it, but at least he had to find a way to dispel his desire for revenge.
If it can't be eliminated, then I'm sorry. Feng Yongyong doesn't like leaving trouble.
If I can save you, I can also kill you.
At worst, if Fan A moves his hands and feet, you can die without anyone noticing.
Feng Yong took Zhao Guang and Li Yi, but not Guan Ji and Huang Ji, so as not to irritate his patient.
When I walked into the room where Eshun was recovering from his injuries, I saw him sitting on the couch in a daze. I found a place to sit far away from him and asked, "How have you been feeling these days?"
Eshun didn't even look at Feng Yong.
"I heard you say at the top of the city that day that you wanted to avenge Gao Ding? That's why you tried your best to come here to find Guan Junhou, right?"
Probably after hearing the two sensitive words "Gaoding" and "Guan Junhou", Eshun finally glanced at him, then turned away and continued to be in a daze.
"Actually, I admire you quite a lot. If you didn't have too few troops, you might have caused us a lot of trouble."
Feng Yong didn't care that Eshun was like this. He just kept talking. When he finished speaking, if Eshun still looked like this, then let him go to the underworld in a daze.
"And I thank you for not killing Lu Gongcao at that time."
Lu Kai was a hero of the Han Dynasty and had a very high prestige in Yongchang. With him, the southernmost part of the Han Dynasty could maintain stability. It would be a pity if he died.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you who I am. My name is Feng Yong, you may not have heard of my name..."
"I've heard that you are the reincarnation of the Ghost King. You have countless ghost generals and soldiers under your command. You can attract thunder and lightning. You usually drink human blood and eat human flesh. You sleep with a hundred women every night."
Unexpectedly, before Feng Yong finished introducing himself, Eshun looked over again and even spoke for the first time in these days.
Feng Yong:......
I was still thinking about how to get you to have sex, but I didn't expect you to speak directly when you heard my name. It seems that the name Ghost King is a bit powerful, right?
Feng Tubiao was very pleased with himself, and then he said "poof", no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't have it! What a shame!
"But when I see you like this today, you're not as powerful as the legend says. Normally, I could beat you ten times."
Eshun continued.
Feng Yong:......
Upon hearing this, Zhao Guang couldn't hold himself back and scolded quickly, "Shut up! If my brother hadn't insisted on saving you, who would have cared about the life and death of a barbarian like you? You would have been thrown into the valley to feed the wolves! Barbarians are barbarians, Don’t know any etiquette at all.”
"That's all misinformation, I'm not that vicious..."
Feng Yonghun waved his hand nonchalantly and stopped Zhao Guang.
"No, you are very cruel. I don't know how many people in Nanzhong are crying because of your cruelty. I don't know how many people have died because of your cruelty."
Eshun shook his head, "I heard that you Han people think you are a very vicious person."
"That's all misinformation, do you know it's misinformation?"
Feng Yong clicked his tongue and emphasized it again.
Eshun turned his head away from him again and said no more.
"Okay, let's get back to the topic. I came here just to ask, how can you let go of your hatred and no longer seek revenge from Guan Junhou?"
Eshun looked over with a sneer in his eyes.
"Look, Gao Ding is dead, and a dead person cannot be resurrected. You just took revenge, so what? And if I save your life now, everyone will be equal, right?"
The sarcasm in Eshun's eyes became even stronger.
"It seems that's not possible." Feng Yong shrugged, "Can you tell me why you must avenge Haute Couture?"
"King Gao is my great benefactor. If I don't repay King Gao's kindness in this life, how can I, Eshun, survive in this world?"
It seems that as long as the topic is related to haute couture, there is a high probability that he will speak.
Feng Yong continued this topic.
"Oh, that's it. But Couture is dead. If you want to repay your kindness, is this the only way you can think of?"
"It's because King Gao is dead that I must kill Guan Xing."
Eshun lowered his gaze, his voice was calm, but there was no doubt about it.
"For example, you won't hesitate to harm Haute Couture's wife and children because of this?"
"What did you say?!"
When Eshun heard Feng Yong's words, he suddenly raised his head and experienced emotional fluctuations for the first time.
"Gaoding's wife and children." Feng Yong looked at Gaoding with an innocent look, "Gaoding fought in Beishui, and his wife and children fell into the hands of the prime minister. At that time, the prime minister even used his wife and children to persuade Gaoding to surrender. It’s a pity that Gao Ding would rather die than surrender.”
"What if you can get revenge in the end? Do you think Gaoding's wife and children can still survive at that time?"
"Is it true that King Gao's wife and children are still here?"
Regardless of his injury, Eshun got off the bed and was about to come over excitedly.
Zhao Guang pulled out his sword with a clang and shouted, "Sit back, I didn't let you come over."
After hearing this, Eshun sat back obediently, but stretched his neck and asked, "Do you take what Mr. Feng said seriously?"
"Why did I lie to you? Guan Junhou has just returned to Jincheng, and he told me this himself."
"Can I meet them?"
Eshun's face showed a look of longing.
"Why?"
Seeing Eshun's appearance, Feng Tibi finally started to tremble.
Damn you for being so indifferent just now.
"You are a defeated general. To be precise, you are still a prisoner under my command. You even owe me your life. Why do you make demands on me?"
Eshun was stunned, thought for a moment, and then said seriously, "I am willing not to seek revenge from Guan Xing from now on."
Feng Yong asked funnyly, "You still didn't understand what I meant, right? You are a prisoner now. Life or death is all a matter of my words. What chance do you have to find Guan Junhou?"
Eshun's dark and ugly face turned out to be slightly red, and he said with some restraint, "I'm sorry Feng Langjun..."
Then after being silent for a while, he asked, "I wonder how I can meet King Gao's wife and children?"
"What's there to see? What if I meet them? They are the wife and children of a thief chief. Even if they are not dead, life will definitely be difficult. Even if you meet them, what can you do to help them?"
Feng Yong showed no mercy.
After hearing this, Eshun's face became angry at first, and then became sad again.
He lowered his head and his body was shaking slightly, as if he was trying hard to control his emotions.
After a while, he raised his head and looked at Feng Yong with a pleading look on his face, "Feng Langjun, Eshun is a barbarian and ignorant by nature. If there was any inadvertent collision before, I hope you can be more tolerant."
"I just ask you to give me a chance to see King Gao's wife and children. As long as I know that they are safe and sound, I will be willing to die to apologize."
He has already begun to call himself a villain. It seems that he really cares about his wife and children.
"You keep saying that you want to repay Gao Ding, but now you just want to die?"
Feng Yong asked.
Eshun let out a long sigh, closed his eyes and said nothing, looking extremely lonely.
At this time, even Zhao Guang felt a little pitiful for him.
He had seen Eshun at the foot of Weixian City and on the bank of Panjiang River. This man could be regarded as a fierce general no matter what. It's really a pity that he is begging like this now.
"I have a way. You don't have to die, but you can also make Gao Ding's wife and children live a better life. Do you want to hear it?"
E Shun opened his eyes, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and then he remembered this person's vicious reputation, and the look in his eyes quickly dimmed.
Although the gentleman in front of him looks kind, the name of the Ghost King is actually made of the flesh and blood of countless people in Nanzhong. How can he be the same generation as Yi Yu?
If I really listened to his idea, I was afraid that he would swallow me to pieces.
But when he remembered that King Gao Dawang's wife and children were still in the hands of the Han army, and he didn't know how much suffering he would have to suffer, Eshun gritted his teeth and said, "Feng Langjun only wants to come through. As long as a villain can do it, he will go through fire and water. Even if he dies, he will not be able to do it." Resign!"
"Not that serious."
Feng Yong showed a smile that he thought was pretty, but unfortunately in Eshun's eyes, it was like a ghost's smile.
"Now, I can show you a clear path, but you have to agree to a few conditions." 8)
