Dingbei.
Fu Tianyan felt like sitting on pins and needles.
Before Wei Wenzhong went to Jing'an Guard, he asked Fu Tianyan to stay and take charge of Dingbei.
However, Fu Tianyan did not wait for Wei Wenzhong to return with the bodies of Yun Zheng and others, but instead received the news that Dugu Ce and Shen Luoyan had led the two frontline guards to besiege Wei Wenzhong in Tianhu Lake.
Now, Dingbei only has 15,000 troops.
It is almost unrealistic to rescue Wei Wenzhong.
Moreover, he did not dare to rescue Wei Wenzhong.
Let’s not talk about whether we can win or not.
For example, the fact that Dugu Ce personally led a large army to besiege Wei Wenzhong was very strange.
Dugu Ce and Yun Zheng didn't have much in common.
...
...
Logically speaking, Dugu Ce had no reason to help Yun Zheng rebel.
In addition, the troops of the two frontier guards were all controlled by Yun Zheng and his men. Even though Yun Zheng had won so many battles, the generals of the two frontier guards would not collectively submit to Yun Zheng!
There must be something unknown in this!
He cannot rescue Wei Wenzhong rashly now, as he might get himself into trouble.
Even the 15,000-strong army from Dingbei was involved.
It’s best not to act rashly before the situation becomes clear!
Just as Fu Tianyan was thinking, the guards outside the door came to report: "General, General Li who is guarding the city sent someone to report that King Jingbei and the deputy commander came to the outside of the city. General Li asked whether to let them in."
"What?"
Fu Tianyan stood up suddenly, "How many people are here?"
"Just over a hundred riders!"
Konoe replied.
Just a hundred riders?
Fu Tianyan frowned.
They came to Dingbei with more than a hundred cavalrymen?
Aren’t they afraid that we will send people to arrest them?
Fu Tianyan pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Tell General Li to let them into the city! And surround them, I will be there soon!"
Dingbei has at least 15,000 troops!
Are you still afraid of the hundred or so riders they have?
After the guards left, Fu Tianyan began to think again.
Are Yun Zheng and the others here to recruit me?
If so, they have made a wrong calculation!
While Fu Tianyan was quietly thinking about the purpose of Yun Zheng and his companions coming to Dingbei, Yun Zheng and his companions had already been surrounded by Li Quan and his men.
"presumptuous!"
Dugu Ce shouted angrily, "Li Quan, what do you want to do?"
As the deputy commander of the Northern Army, Dugu Ce naturally has some prestige.
Faced with Dugu Ce's angry shout, Li Quan and his soldiers suddenly felt weak.
After calming down, Li Quan said, "General Dugu, I am also following orders! Please wait for a moment, Your Majesty and General Dugu, General Fu will be here soon!"
Dugu Ce's face turned cold and he wanted to say something else but was stopped by Yun Zheng.
"Okay, let's not embarrass him."
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled at Dugu Ce, then turned to look at Li Quan, "Go, bring a stool for me and General Dugu to sit on. Oh, and get a charcoal fire! It's very cold in this weather."
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, Li Quan couldn't help but look upset.
And bring them a stool?
Do you need to make charcoal fire?
Do you want to serve them good food and wine again?
Should we surround them or receive them?
"What are you still standing there for?"
Yun Zheng glared at Li Quan unhappily, "Do you still want me to treat you?"
Li Quan paused slightly and hesitated for a moment, but finally asked someone to do as Yun Zheng asked.
No matter what, Yun Zheng is still a prince.
Moreover, they only brought such a small number of people to Dingbei. Even a fool could know that they were not here to rebel.
As long as Yun Zheng doesn't rebel, would he dare to kill Yun Zheng?
Soon, the soldiers brought stools and braziers.
Yun Zheng sat down leisurely, then took out his water bag and opened it.
Under Dugu Ce's puzzled gaze, Yun Zheng poured a small sip of alcohol into his mouth.
“Ahem…”
After drinking just a little, Yun Zheng choked and started coughing.
"Damn, this stuff smells good, but it tastes terrible."
Yun Zheng muttered to himself and handed the water bag to Dugu Ce, "General Dugu, would you like some?"
“Don’t, don’t!”
Dugu Ce waved his hands repeatedly, "I can't stand this thing."
"It's okay." Yun Zheng laughed, "It's okay to drink a little, it will keep you warm."
Dugu Ce looked at Yun Zheng suspiciously, thought for a moment, and then took the water bag and took a small sip.
“Ahem…”
The next moment, Dugu Ce was choked and started coughing.
Looking at Dugu Ce's appearance, Yun Zheng couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"General Li, do you want to try it?"
Yun Zheng looked up at Li Quan again.
Li Quan quickly shook his head, "I won't need that."
Yun Zheng raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Why, are you afraid that I will poison this?"
“No, no…”
Li Quan shook his head repeatedly, "The prince and General Dugu have both drunk it, it's definitely not poisonous."
"Isn't this the end?"
Yun Zheng took the water bag and handed it to Li Quan, "Take a sip! I really want to know if it's only people like me and General Dugu who can't handle this wine."
"this……"
Li Quan was hesitant.
"Hurry up!"
Yun Zheng glared at Li Quan, "I dare to drink, and you dare not? You are not like a man at all!"
Li Quan had no choice but to take the wine bag.
"You can only drink a small sip of this, don't drink more!"
Yun Zheng reminded Li Quan again.
Li Quan nodded and tried to pour himself a small sip.
As a result, he was naturally just like Yun Zheng and the others. He was choked and coughed continuously, and he opened his mouth hard to breathe in the cold air.
"Well! It seems that you can't do it either."
Yun Zheng shrugged and immediately looked at the soldiers surrounding them. "It's boring to stand here anyway. Who else wants to try? Anyone who can bear a small bite will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver!"
One hundred taels of silver?
Listening to Yun Zheng's words, many people were moved.
At present, Yun Zheng and the other three have all drunk this wine, and it is definitely not poisonous.
But is this wine really that great?
Can't you handle just a small bite?
Is this true or false?
It is said that curiosity kills the cat.
The more they thought about it, the more curious they became.
Even if you can't get a hundred taels of silver, it's good to try this wine!
"My Lord, I want to try!"
Finally, a brave soldier stood up.
"Sure! No problem! Anyone can try!"
Yun Zheng laughed, "But, I have to say this beforehand. You can only try a small sip! If anyone dares to drink more, I will tear the thing he uses to drink from me!"
"Uh-huh!"
The soldiers nodded repeatedly and looked at Li Quan eagerly.
Li Quan felt bitter in his heart and had to hand over the water bag.
He drank it himself!
Could he not let these people try?
If he wanted to stop these soldiers, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among them.
At that time, Yun Zheng would just wave his hand and someone would probably help him catch himself.
Looking at Li Quan's helpless look, Dugu Ce couldn't help but look at Yun Zheng with admiration.
What a good trick!
Just by drinking this little bit of alcohol, he was able to build a closer relationship with these soldiers.
Originally these people were surrounding them!
Now, not only is there no tense atmosphere at all, but it seems like he is just making a bet with these soldiers for fun?
That’s awesome!
