Seeing how confident Lu Feng was, Fan Yufei had no choice but to go ahead and make arrangements with hesitation.
The Pegasus Pass is being deployed intensively here, and the enemies outside the pass have already received the news that Lu Feng has arrived at Pegasus Pass.
In the big tent, Zuo Manduo laughed heartily after hearing the report from his spies.
"Why is the general laughing?" his subordinate asked.
"I laugh that Daxia has run out of energy. It's time for us to settle in the Central Plains."
After hearing Zuo Manduo's words, the subordinate said: "General, according to the news that the general learned, although this Lu Feng is young, he has been entrusted by the imperial court with the important task of conquering the martial arts world."
"Although the martial arts world has not yet been completely conquered, this person has defeated a branch of an organization that has been planning in Daxia for many years. His strength and mentality cannot be underestimated."
Zuo Manduo took a big sip of wine and wiped the wine stains from his mouth with the back of his hand.
"Why didn't you listen to the news from Detective Quan? Now that Daxia actually wants him to give up on the martial arts affairs, it means that Daxia has no talents available. This is one of them."
"Secondly, Daxia has just weathered the natural disaster, and the treasury is empty. Not only is there a shortage of troops, but even food and grass are a problem. I think the Pegasus Pass in front of us will soon collapse because of the lack of food and grass. , which is why I just provoke people in Guanxia these days instead of attacking by force."
"When the soldiers inside Pegasus Pass are unable to defend, that's when we break through it in one fell swoop. By then, when the army enters the pass, there will be nothing left in Daxia that can stop my sons."
"The capture of the capital city of Daxia is just around the corner. By then, even the Empress of Daxia will be captured alive. I've heard people say that the Empress of Daxia looks like a beauty, like a goblin."
After saying that, Zuo Manduo laughed lewdly.
That night, Zuo Manduo was just about to take a rest when a hurried-looking guard ran in from outside the tent.
"Report to the general, a lantern flickering on and off appeared on the top of the Pegasus Pass city wall."
Zuo Manduo heard this and walked out quickly.
Under the guidance of the guards, Zuo Manduo saw a lantern flickering on and off at Pegasus Pass in the darkness in the distance.
After maintaining this rhythm for a while, the lantern disappeared completely.
Zuo Manduo was puzzled and quickly called his generals to discuss it.
But no one could guess what the owner of the lantern wanted to do.
The next day, although there was an inexplicable lantern last night, nothing happened during the day.
Zuo Manduo continued to yell at people outside Pegasus Pass, still using the provocation method.
But just like before, no one in Pegasus Pass came out to respond.
Just when Zuo Manduo thought that today was going to be as ordinary as usual, some of his subordinates came into the big account to report the situation.
"General, that Fan Yufei appeared at the top of the city, acting a little strange."
Zuo Manduo heard about it and took people out of the tent to watch.
At Pegasus Gate, Fan Yufei was seen walking back and forth alone at the top of the city, glancing at the situation on Zuo Manduo's side from time to time, looking very anxious.
"What is this guy doing?"
Just when Zuo Man was confused, he noticed Fan Yufei's eyes on him.
Not only that, Fan Yufei looked happy when he saw Zuo Manduo.
He looked around and found that no one was paying attention to him, so he reached out and threw something out of the gate, and then left.
Zuo Manduo saw all this.
"Go and find an opportunity to take back what he threw away and take a look at it."
Perhaps there was no food in the pass, and the soldiers on the wall were listless and did not notice the small movements outside the pass.
His men quickly got back the things Fan Yufei had thrown away from Xiaguan.
It was a wad of paper.
Zuo Manduo unfolded the paper and saw a line of words on it.
wrote:
"Please see me tonight at midnight."
Zuo Manduo read it and thought for a moment, "What does this guy want to do?"
"General, be careful of fraud."
Zuo Man laughed at them and said: "Hahaha, is there a lie? Just fly the horse to block the current manpower. If we have a head-on confrontation, I, the general, only need to send a small team to annihilate them all."
"I think this new court official did something to make Fan Yufei do this."
"What do you think, General?"
Zuo Manduo threw the paper into the brazier and said: "This Lu Feng has been given an important job by the Great Xia court at a young age. If he really thinks he is a genius, we cannot possibly not know about it."
"Don't be frightened by the fact that he served as the inspector of Daxia. I think he can become a high official at a young age. There are only two situations."
"First, he is a good talker and can please the Emperor of Great Xia with his words. Second, he got to this position through bribery."
"I have seen many people like him, who are eager to show off their talents and seek quick success. Fan Yufei must have been disgusted by this person when he did what he did today. He also knew that the imperial court could no longer count on him. He wanted to Leave yourself a way out."
After hearing this, his subordinates reminded him: "But general, this Lu Feng has made great achievements during his tenure as an inspector. He doesn't look like a mediocre person."
"You're stupid. Merits can be faked. What's more, Daxia is like this now. Who will dig deeper into the authenticity of his merits?"
"I have heard, General, that when Daxia was suppressing bandits, some officers and soldiers killed good people and took credit for their merits in order to get rewards."
Hearing what Zuo Manduo said, his subordinates also agreed very much.
At night, Zuo Manduo sat in the big tent waiting for the arrival of midnight.
The hour has come.
There was a commotion at the gate of the camp outside the tent. After a while, his men came in with Fan Yufei and several Daxia soldiers tied up.
"General, we have been brought here."
Zuo Manduo was very satisfied with his explanation during the day. In addition, Fan Yufei came on time as written on the paper, so he believed Fan Yufei 90% in his heart.
When he saw Fan Yufei being tied up, he quickly scolded his subordinates in a hypocritical manner, "What's going on? How can you be so rude to General Fan."
After saying that, Zuo Manduo personally stepped forward to untie Fan Yufei.
"Thank you, General Zuo." Fan Yufei said gratefully.
"General Fan, you don't have to be polite. Although you and I are in different camps, we are both soldiers, and we still need the dignity we deserve. Please sit down."
Zuo Man asked Fan Yufei to take a seat, and asked his subordinates to untie the soldiers who had followed Fan Yufei.
Fan Yufei sighed deeply, "General Zuo is both wise and brave. He should know why I am here tonight."
Zuo Manduo smiled and said, "General, I hope General Fan will say it himself."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Yufei directly stated his purpose.
"I want to dedicate Pegasus Pass to General Zuo. I just ask that a few of us join you."
Although Zuo Manduo had expected it, he was still ecstatic in his heart.
He suppressed the joy in his heart and said, "Why?"
