Chapter 501 The Puppet's Legs Have Their Own Thoughts
"Big brother, Kamiki, help me!"
Upon seeing Wei Shuyu leading his troops, Wang Xiu was startled.
My whole body was instantly filled with energy.
"You're finished! My older brother's here. If you don't let go, I'll drown you in a pig cage, soak you in a cesspool, and chop off your penises..."
Bang.
Seeing Wang Xiu rambling on and on, the villager slapped him across the face.
"Waaah..."
Wang Xiu pouted, his eyes brimming with tears.
"Wang Fatan, how dare you bully my little brother!"
Choi Shin-ki's eyes immediately reddened.
He grabbed a brick and charged forward.
Bang.
Wei Shuyu kicked out.
They kicked him so hard he fell flat on his face.
"What are you even talking about? Can't you see how many people on the other side are carrying weapons?" Wei Shuyu said speechlessly.
"Big brother, what are we afraid of, there are thousands of us?" Choi Shin-ki said, covering his butt in grievance.
"Get out of here."
Wei Shuyu simply picked him up and tossed him behind him.
"Wei Shuyu?"
On the other side, Du Mingfang narrowed his eyes upon seeing Wei Shuyu.
It was this little brat who caused their plans to thwart one after another.
"Exactly."
Wei Shuyu cupped his hands in greeting: "May I ask this valiant hero's honorable name?"
"Du Mingfang!"
Du Mingfang did not hide anything.
"I have long admired General Du's name."
Wei Shuyu continued, "His Majesty often mentions that Dou Jiande has a great general named Du Mingfang..."
"It's a pity I've never had the chance to see it."
"I wonder if General Du would be willing to join the Tang Dynasty?"
Du Mingfang sneered.
She really is a little fox.
In this situation, they are ignoring the Imperial Academy's army and instead trying to recruit me.
That makes sense when you think about it.
If they recruited him, the Imperial Academy army would naturally be saved.
"Stop talking nonsense."
Du Mingfang drew his blade and pointed it at his companions: "Get back now, or I'll kill them!"
"General Du, please do not act rashly."
Wei Shuyu quickly stopped him, saying, "It's just that I stole a few of your vegetables, there's no need to get so angry, is there?"
"You've already led two thousand soldiers to search the temple, and you're still pretending to be confused?" Du Mingfang said with disdain.
Wei Shuyu was stunned.
I didn't ask anything.
You confessed yourself?
"I'll let you withdraw your troops."
Wei Shuyu pondered for a moment and said, "But what happens after we retreat?"
"Where should you go from here?"
"Should we continue living a life of hiding and concealment?"
Wei Shuyu launched another psychological offensive.
Since we can't persuade Du Mingfang, let's try persuading his subordinates.
Stop talking nonsense!
Du Mingfang shouted, "If we dare to do it, we're already prepared to die."
"Yeah?"
Wei Shuyu stretched out his hand, and immediately a soldier handed him a book...
"Dujia Village".
"The village has 138 households, and in the past nine years, 520 new children have been added!"
"Are you all planning to have your relatives and children die with you?"
Swish.
Du Ming's expression changed.
When you're out in the world, the thing you fear most is having your family threatened.
“Wei Shuyu, I know you are quick-witted.”
Du Mingfang said with a stern face, "But I can tell you that we are only temporarily staying in Dujia Village and have not had any dealings with the people in the village."
"hehe……"
Wei Shuyu smiled nonchalantly: "Words can lie, but data can't!"
“Those widows in Dujia Village, none of them can have a child on their own.”
"besides……"
"Just because you're a good actor doesn't mean your subordinates are good actors too!"
Wei Shuyu looked around...
Many of Du Mingfang's men looked tense.
Wei Shuyu immediately ordered, "Uncle Chang, have all the villagers of Dujia Village arrested!"
"You dare!"
Du Mingfang was furious.
He swiftly placed the knife against Wang Xiu's neck: "Anyone who dares to make a move, I'll kill him right now!"
Waaah...
Wang Xiu cried.
With so many friends around, why put a knife to my throat?
"Alright, then I'll ask you all one more question..."
Ignoring Du Mingfang, Wei Shuyu continued to persuade him, "Where will you go from here on out?"
"Are you still thinking about avenging Dou Jiande?"
Do you think that's realistic?
"His Majesty has already won, and he is working hard to serve the people."
"Think back to when you first joined the army..."
"Isn't it all for those two meals, just to survive?"
"Now you have food and drink, a wife and son, and a warm bed. Aren't you comfortable with this kind of life?"
Wei Shuyu's voice was not loud.
Yet every word pierced their hearts.
They did have hostages, but Wei Shuyu did too.
However, those who stay by Du Mingfang's side are all his absolute confidants, and they are not so easily swayed.
"Shut up!"
Du Mingfang shouted at them.
If Wei Shuyu continues to say this, even if he doesn't collapse now, he will eventually fall apart.
It's difficult to change someone's mind.
But once the seed is planted, it will slowly sprout.
"I'll shut up!"
Wei Shuyu stepped forward: "But please tell me, what exactly are you doing all these things in secret?"
"Do you think your current life is too comfortable, and you have to ruin your family and cause everyone to die before you're satisfied?"
Wei Shuyu pressed on, saying, "As long as you are willing to surrender, I can plead with His Majesty to forgive and forget what happened in the past!"
"Shut up!"
Du Mingfang didn't want to waste any more words, so he directly held a knife to Wang Xiu's neck and threatened, "I'll count to three, and if you don't retreat, I'll cut him down!"
“It’s really not worth it for you to do this…” Wei Shuyu continued to persuade him.
"three!"
"Let's talk about this slowly..."
"two!"
"Impulsiveness is the devil. Don't risk your brother's life for a moment of anger."
"one!"
"Du Mingfang, you need to understand your own position..."
Wei Shuyu's words were even more scathing: "They represent the top nobles of the Tang Dynasty. If you dare to kill them, you will have no way to survive in the entire world!"
Holy crap.
I never expected you to be like this, brother.
Wang Xiu's eyes widened.
"So noisy!"
Du Mingfang raised the blade, about to bring it down...
"Stop, stop, stop... You've won, I'll withdraw my troops, okay?" Wei Shuyu quickly raised his hands in surrender.
no way.
If the Imperial Academy's army were to perish, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Uncle Chang, have your men retreat three miles, leaving behind twenty skilled soldiers."
"Only twenty people?"
Chang He frowned as he spoke.
That's enough.
Wei Shuyu nodded.
"OK!"
Chang He gritted his teeth and chose to believe.
"Everyone, retreat three miles!"
Following Chang He's order, the soldiers retreated in an orderly fashion.
"Du Mingfang."
Wei Shuyu smiled and said, "You are a general under Dou Jiande, you shouldn't mind if I leave these people behind, right?"
"random!"
Du Mingfang didn't pay any attention.
We currently have seventy or eighty people, plus so many hostages.
He didn't believe Wei Shuyu could come up with anything more interesting.
"So, can we have a proper talk now?" Wei Shuyu asked.
"talk?"
Du Mingfang just gave a cold laugh.
Once I take down you leaders, this situation will collapse on its own...
After the soldiers had retreated a certain distance, Du Mingfang waved his hand and ordered, "Take them down!"
Wang sighed.
No martial ethics!
Choi Shin-ki and Fang Yi-ai slipped behind Chang He.
But then I thought the big pot was still more powerful.
He then darted behind Wei Shuyu in a flash.
"Du Mingfang, you're courting death!"
Wei Shuyu's eyes flickered.
The enemy sent dozens of people to surround them, leaving only about ten people to guard their companions.
"Oh……"
Du Mingfang sneered, "It's natural for me to die, but you'll definitely die before me!"
"superior!"
Ping-ping-pong-pong.
A battle broke out between the two sides quickly.
"Big pot, let's get him!"
"Big brother, get him!"
The two bastards kept yelling at us from behind...
Um?
Wei Shuyu turned to look at the two men: "Why didn't you leave?"
ah?
Should we leave too?
The moment the thought crossed his mind, Wei Shuyu vanished from the spot in a flash!
Holy crap!
The big pot is gone?
The two exchanged a glance, then...
Huh?
What about Chang He?
Looking around, Chang He had already engaged in combat with his opponent.
"..."
There's no one to protect us anymore.
The two of them stared wide-eyed, their legs feeling a little weak.
"Remains, are you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid!"
"Why aren't you worried about your legs shaking?"
"Aren't you shaking too?"
"My legs have their own ideas; they say they want to exercise."
"What a coincidence, my legs are the same!"
