Li Cheng was shocked. He didn't expect that his family members were sent away but were caught back by Shao Bu.
When he saw Butler Liu hiding timidly behind Shao Bu, he understood everything.
"Butler Liu, my Li family has treated you well, why did you betray me!" Li Cheng pointed angrily at Butler Liu on the city wall and couldn't help but scream, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He didn't expect that Butler Liu was so cunning. He pretended to be loyal to him and even had tears in his eyes when he left. How could he do such a heartless thing?
Unexpectedly, Butler Liu said with tears in his eyes: "Young Master, I'm sorry for you. It's all because of my useless son. He reported the matter to the government, and I just found out about it, wuwuwu..." He didn't call Li Cheng General, but called him Young Master as he did before.
It turned out that Li Cheng had wronged the housekeeper Liu, who was actually quite loyal and fled out of the city with Li Cheng's family.
Butler Liu also had a son who fled with him. But his son was a prodigal son, well-versed in all kinds of extravagant things. In the past, he relied on his father's position as the butler of the Li Mansion to do many bad things in Quanzhou City, such as eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.
He knew that if he left Quanzhou City, he would no longer be able to rely on the Li family's support. He would be a homeless dog from now on, and you still can't be so arrogant and domineering.
So he made up his mind, jumped out of the car and fled back to Quanzhou City, no matter how hard the housekeeper Liu begged.
This was a hurry to capture Quanzhou City, and he was also without support. So he simply made up his mind and went to the Marshal's Mansion to report Li Cheng's rebellion.
Shaobu was initially skeptical. He understood that Li Cheng's decision to send his family away was understandable, given the war. However, given Li Cheng's soft-hearted nature, he simply didn't believe he would rebel. So, while he dispatched troops to pursue Li Cheng's family, he also brought dozens of his personal soldiers to Li Cheng's camp to spy on him.
An anxious rabbit will not bite, and unexpectedly, Li Cheng really rebelled. So Shao Bu hurried back to his house to gather troops, but Li Cheng still rushed out of the city with his subordinates. At this time, the people he sent out also brought Li Cheng's family back.
"Li Cheng, you betrayed my Mongolian Kingdom. Today I will make you pay the price!" The thousand-man commander Shaobu pointed at Li Cheng's family members around him with a grim smile.
Li Cheng was so frightened that his soul flew out of his body. "Shao Bu is the captain of a thousand men. One person is responsible for everything. It's all you who forced me to rebel. It has nothing to do with my family. Please release my family. I beg you."
This plea only increased the other party's arrogance. Shao Bu waved his hand, and a Mongolian executioner raised his knife and killed Li Cheng's third wife with a single blow.
This third lady is Li Cheng’s latest concubine. She is the youngest, most beautiful and the one Li Cheng likes the most among his three wives.
The woman was hacked to death by Shao Bu in the blink of an eye. Li Cheng was furious: "Shao Bu, I will never tolerate you!"
"Hahaha..." Shaobu on the city wall said smugly, "Li Cheng, I just want you to know the consequences of betraying the Mongol Empire! Go!"
The executioner raised his sword again and cut Li Cheng's mother into two pieces.
"Ah!~" Although Li Cheng betrayed his country and became a lackey of the Mongol Empire, he was still filial to his mother.
The ancients attached great importance to filial piety. Although his old mother scolded Li Cheng for surrendering to the enemy, Li Cheng still devoted himself to his mother.
How could Li Cheng not be angry when Shaobu killed his mother in front of him?
Shaobu on the city wall laughed loudly. He did this to warn the people in the city and see who would dare to surrender to the enemy and betray the country in the future.
Confucius and his men from the Second Blue Wolf Regiment were also filled with righteous indignation. These beasts actually attacked women and children.
"Shoot!" Confucius commanded his Iron Wolf Army archers.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..." Feather arrows flew everywhere.
But Shaobu was hiding in a blind corner of the city wall, and it was difficult for crossbow arrows to hit him. Moreover, Shaobu was surrounded by a row of soldiers holding shields, who were specifically used to block the enemy archers, so the crossbow arrows outside the city could not hurt them at all.
"Hahaha..., Li Cheng, this is your son, right?" Shao Bu grabbed a boy and held him in the air.
"Dad, save me! It's me, Dad!" The boy was his eldest son, and Li Cheng's eyes popped out of his head just by looking at him.
"Don't hurt my son!" Li Cheng's original wife suddenly stood up and rushed towards Shaobu. A personal soldier next to her stabbed with a knife, piercing the woman's chest.
"Mom! Dad!" the boy cried loudly.
"Li Cheng, kneel down. As long as you kneel down, I might spare your son's life." Shaobu grinned.
Li Cheng no longer had any self-respect left. He knelt down outside the city and said, "Shao Bu, please let my child go. He is innocent. I beg you!" He cried.
He has two sons and a daughter. His eldest son is only five or six years old and has just learned to walk, and his daughter is still breastfeeding.
The eldest son was born to Li Cheng's first wife, and the son and daughter were born to his second wife.
The second wife knelt on the ground, trembling, holding her two children. Shao Bu rushed over and grabbed the children.
The second wife was also like crazy: "Let go of my child, let go of my child!"
The Mongolian soldiers next to him pulled his second wife away. Shaobu grabbed Li Cheng's eldest son with his left hand, and grabbed the lapels of Li Cheng's son and daughter with his right hand and raised his hands high: "Okay, since you are willing to kneel down. Then I, Shaobu, will do what I say. I will let your children go, and you take it." He swung his hands and threw Li Cheng's three children under the city wall.
"My child!" Li Cheng rushed forward, and the personal soldiers beside him pulled him tightly, raising a cloud of dust on the ground.
They were over 200 meters away from the city wall, and no matter how fast they ran, they couldn't catch the child. If they rushed over, they would become sitting ducks for the Mongolian soldiers on the wall.
The three children fell down from the city wall and died without a sound.
Mrs. Li Cheng's second wife rushed over like a madman, and was strangled to death by Shao Bu.
"Shao Bu! I'm going to kill you! Kill you!" Li Cheng fell to the ground, chewing on the yellow soil in his mouth, and scratching the ground with his hands, leaving bloody marks.
Everyone in Kong Fuzi's Second Blue Wolf Regiment was filled with righteous indignation, and the miscellaneous troops under Li Cheng were also filled with anger, but with only these two thousand people, they could not capture Quanzhou City.
Although Shaobu had only a thousand men, if you add the transport team and logistics personnel in the city, you can make up 3,000 to 4,000 men. Moreover, they had the city walls to defend, and Kong Fuzi was lightly armed and had no siege weapons. It was impossible for him to take the city with Li Cheng's limited force.
"Hahaha, hahaha..." Shao Bu's evil and sinister laughter echoed throughout the city wall.
"Young Master, I'm sorry to you and to my master!" Butler Liu jumped up and jumped down from the city wall.
Steward Liu's son huddled in a corner of the city wall, trembling with fear.
