The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 697
At four o'clock, Lu Fang passed out near Yang Yong's camp. After the patrolling sentinel found out, they bowed their swords and drew their sheaths, shouting and surrounding Lu Fang. But for a long time they saw Lu Fang lying motionless on the ground next to his horse. The war horse stood beside the master without moving, and the patrol captain ordered Lu Fang to be tied up, and after dawn he ordered someone to report to Yang Yong.

Yang Yong was taken aback when he heard that, and when the generals including Princess Yujing saw Lu Fang, Lu Fang was already awake, but he was seriously injured and his face was haggard. When he saw Yang Yong, Lu Fang knelt down with a plop, "My lord, it's too late to surrender!" , please forgive me, my lord."

Yang Yong was overjoyed and quickly helped him up. He loosened the rope and asked about the details. Lu Fang didn't speak, and tears came down. First, he asked Yang Yong to look at the wound on his buttocks. The buttocks can only be called buttocks, they are swollen high and big. There is no cure for this large area. Although the medicine is used, the wound is still shocking.

Then Lu Fang told the story, Yang Yong scolded Lei Shimeng and Lin Shihong for their cruelty, but he was grateful to them in his heart, otherwise, would he have won such a general with high martial arts skills?Lu Fang is known as Marquis Xiao Wen, in terms of martial arts, he is comparable to Luo Song, Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong and others, thousands of troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find, how can Yang Yong be unhappy to get such a general?
Yang Yong comforted Lu Fang a few words, and immediately named him a general, and then ordered the genius doctor An Daoquan to give Lu Fang a new diagnosis and treatment, apply medicine, and bandage the wound. Lu Fang was so grateful that he knelt down and thanked him.

Three days later, Lu Fang recovered almost from his injuries. He came to see Yang Yong and said: "Your Majesty, I am grateful for your shelter. I feel deeply disturbed that my subordinates have not accomplished an inch of merit. As the saying goes, you will not be rewarded for nothing. Do you want to capture Henan as soon as possible?" chapter?"

Hearing this, Yang Yong said happily, "Why don't you think about it, you dream about it, what's the general's strategy?"

Lu Fangdao: "My lord, the day after tomorrow is my best friend Zhang Dianchen's night patrol. He also sympathizes with the last general very much. He is very dissatisfied with Lin Shihong and Lei Shimeng. He also intends to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. Can't trust and take him in. His subordinates persuaded him many times in private, but he couldn't make up his mind. I will write another book at the end of tonight, and ask him to open the west city gate at three o'clock during the night patrol the day after tomorrow. Yuzhang City is at your fingertips for the lord's bravery, and Zhang Dianchen has made great contributions, and I hope the lord can take him in. Everyone has given him the nickname Yinjia Taisui, and his martial arts are not inferior to the last general. I don't know what the king means?"

Yang Yong's eyes lit up, "It's a good idea, that's great. This king has always given preferential treatment to surrendered generals and captives. How can this king reject such a great talent as General Zhang? It's not too late. Please, general, revise the book quickly." Can win a general and win a city, where can such a good thing be found?Yang Yong couldn't wait any longer.

He ordered people to prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Lu Fang and Lu Shu had someone write for him. Soon the letter was written. After drying the ink, let Yang Yong read it.

After reviewing, Yang Yong felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he nodded and finalized the draft.In order to show his sincerity, Lu Fang bit his middle finger and signed his name. Yang Yong also pressed the big stamp of King Menyi Yong on the letter, and then ordered someone to pack the letter and seal it with fire tin. Lu Fang put the letter on the shaft of the arrow, quietly turned it outside the west city, and shot it into the city with the arrow.

Since Lu Fang defected, the city of Yuzhang has been heavily guarded.Lin Shihong and Lei Shimeng immediately demanded that the chief generals of each defense zone should not remove their armor, horses and saddles, and not leave the defense zone for half a step without a will, let alone during the day. personnel.

Because the west city was Zhang Dianchen's defense area, as soon as the arrow shot into the city, it was discovered by the patrolling guards, and the letter soon reached Zhang Dianchen's hands.

Zhang Dianchen's life is not so easy now, he never dreamed that Lu Fang would defect to the enemy, and after he got the letter, he hurriedly asked Lei Shimeng to plead guilty, because Lei Shimeng thought that Lu Fang was collaborating with the enemy and wanted to kill Lu Fang, it was he who pleaded for mercy Guarantee, now that Lu Fang has defected to the enemy, Lei Shimeng will pursue it, and Zhang Dianchen will be punished with death.

Lei Shimeng pulled him up and comforted him: "What is the general's fault? He is you, you are you, and Lu Fang's defection to the enemy has nothing to do with you. It's true that you know people, face, and heart. As long as you don't defect to the enemy, this king will definitely I won't take my anger out on you."

When Zhang Dianchen heard something in Lei Shimeng's words, he quickly knelt down again, vowed to express his loyalty, and expressed his willingness to go out of the city to take Lu Fang's head to prove his innocence, but Lei Shimeng politely refused.

From that day on, Zhang Dianchen felt that there were many eyes and ears of Lei Shimeng and Lin Shihong around him. Zhang Dianchen knew that he was suspicious of himself, and he was not angry. Who made himself and Lu Fang have the closest relationship and close contacts? , the body is not afraid of evil shadows, they can doubt as much as they like, as long as they are loyal.

Therefore, Zhang Dianchen pretended not to know that he should patrol the camp and be on duty, meticulous and conscientious.

Now that he has seen the letter written by Lu Fang to himself, don't ask if it is to persuade him to surrender. Zhang Dianchen was furious, yelling and cursing that he didn't even open the letter. He was about to tear the letter to pieces when someone outside the tent shouted : "My lord is here!"

Zhang Dianchen was startled, fearing that the explanation would not be clear, the description became darker and darker, so he hurriedly put the letter under the pillow, and planned to go out of the tent to meet him, when Lei Shimeng came in with someone.

"My subordinates see the prince." Zhang Dianchen hurriedly bowed to salute.

Lei Shimeng didn't speak, so Zhang Dianchen didn't dare to straighten up, so he could only bow down and wait for the prince's instructions.

Lei Shimeng circled around him twice, staring at Zhang Dianchen with both eyes, which made Zhang Dianchen's heart tremble.

"General Zhang, what are you doing?"

"Ah... Back to the prince, no, why not, the subordinate just came back from the camp tour..." Zhang Dianchen was straightforward, and he never lied to cover up, but now he hesitated a bit when he was nervous.

Lei Shimeng sent out the rest of the idlers and asked, "I heard that Lu Fang sent you a letter into the city, is there such a thing?"

Zhang Dianchen's head buzzed, and he quickly knelt down, "My lord, there is a letter, but my subordinates didn't even dare to read a single word. I was just about to destroy it when my lord arrived. Please make a note of me, my lord. Put the letter under the pillow." If you don’t believe me, the prince can verify it.”

Lei Shimeng laughed suddenly, laughing so much that Zhang Dianchen felt terrified, "This letter is not easy to come by, my king has been waiting for him for three days, how can I destroy it?"

"Ah? This..." Zhang Dianchen was even more confused, and was about to kneel again. Lei Shimeng stopped him, "Why are you nervous? It's time to tell you the truth..." Said, Lei Shimeng whispered in Zhang Dianchen's ear Whispered for a while.

Only then did Zhang Dianchen suddenly realize, and secretly said, Lu Fang is a good boy, your acting is really good, after this matter is over, after Yang Yong is captured and killed, I will ask you to settle the score when celebrating the victory, but I am quite confused.

Seeing Zhang Dianchen in a daze, Lei Shimeng explained: "General Zhang, only four people know about this matter at present, your majesty and this king, and the Minister of the Ministry of War, Mr. Dong, because it is he who made the plan, and this plan is of great importance, so It has been concealed until now, I hope General Zhang will not mind."

"I dare not scare my subordinates to death."

Lei Shi patted Zhang Dianchen on the shoulder and said: "Well, then reply to him quickly according to the content of the letter. How should I say you should know, and you must strictly keep the secret. This time, Yang Yong will definitely be able to escape. , you Zhang Dianchen is also a great hero."

"This subordinate dare not claim credit. As long as Yang Yong can be captured and killed, this subordinate will not hesitate to die. This subordinate will do it now." Zhang Dianchen said, and took out the letter from under the pillow...
