Chapter 1746
"They rejected our conditions and asked us to surrender within a quarter of an hour, otherwise they would attack the village." Wang Liang said with a wry smile.
When Wang Hu heard this, his face turned pale and he fell into the seat behind him.
I regretted that I did not flee to Wan County like the Yuan father and son, but now it was too late to leave. I was besieged by bandits outside, so it was difficult for the few soldiers in the village to escape.
"General, what should we do next?" Wang Liang looked at Wang Hu and waited for the other party to make an idea.
Wang Hu said with an ugly face: "Aren't they afraid of killing the death?"
Wang Liang did not answer.
He had already said this when he met the leader of the thief outside the village. In the current situation, the other party was really not afraid of them.
In the entire village, except for the dozens of personal soldiers they brought, there was only a young and powerful soldier of fifty or sixty people temporarily formed from the village.
The only ones who are truly capable are the personal soldiers of the Wang family. As for the young and strong team, it is of little use except to raise a single head.
Looking at the village's bandits, there are hundreds of cavalry, thousands of infantry, and four cannons.
Even if they want to abandon the village and flee.
"Mr. Wang, otherwise we should surrender. We can't defeat the thieves outside the village." The hundred households guarding the room looked at Wang Hu in anticipation.
The personal soldiers brought by Wang Hu were the most powerful soldiers in the village. The whole village was not an opponent. Whether he could surrender to the bandits now is no longer the final say.
"General, surrender is also a way, and if we fight, it will be difficult for us to win. Even if we want to escape, we will not have much chance to face the hundreds of thieves." Wang Liang also persuaded him.
At this time, he really couldn't see any chance besides surrender.
"Do you all want to seek survival from the thieves?" Wang Hu looked at the two people in front of him with cold eyes.
The hundred-householder smiled bitterly and said, "If there were other choices, my subordinates would never surrender. But now the outside of the village has been surrounded by bandits. Even for the sake of the people in the village, I would like to ask the general to give them a way out."
"Forget it!" Wang Hu's body softened, lost his last bit of energy, and said slowly, "Since you all decided to surrender, then surrender!"
boom!
At this moment, a sound of cannons came from the entrance of the village, followed by another sound of a house collapse.
A personal soldier from the Wang family ran in from outside the house and said anxiously: "General, the bandits have attacked."
"Surrender!" Wang Hu said weakly.
"ah!"
The personal soldier thought he had heard it wrong and couldn't help asking.
"I said I would surrender and surrender immediately." Wang Hu roared hysterically.
"Yes." The personal soldier agreed and hurriedly ran out to convey the news of his surrender.
It didn't take long, and the sound of cannons stopped.
There was a burst of rapid horse hooves and footsteps outside the Baihuyuan.
"General, the leader of the bandits is here." Wang Liang used the window to see a team of soldiers walking into the gate of Baihu's house. The leader was the leader of the bandits he had met outside the village before.
Wang Hu turned his head and looked out the window, but he didn't move.
But the hundred households in the room hurried outside to greet them.
"Wang Hu!" As soon as the visitor entered the room, he saw Wang Hu slumped in his seat.
Because he had seen Wang Liang besides him, the other person left stood aside, so the only person sitting in the seat was Wang Hu, the commander of Zhenwu Guard.
"I am Wang Hu." Wang Hu sat down from the seat and said, "I really didn't expect that I would fall into your hands. If I had known today, I would have agreed to your Wang Shizheng."
After hearing this, Zhou Shuiqing laughed contemptuously and said, "Now you are a defeated general, and there is no regret in the world to give you medicine. Come and take him away."
Two soldiers walked up from behind and stepped forward to set up Wang Hu.
Wang Liang and another Wang Hu's personal soldiers dared not stop them, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads to look.
"I don't need you, I can leave myself." Wang Hu tried hard to break free from the two combat soldiers.
The two soldiers from Zhou Shuiqing Dynasty waved their hands.
The two soldiers let go of Wang Hu's arms.
Wang Hu looked at Zhou Shuiqing in front of him and said, "The success and defeat of the enemy. Since I am defeated, I admit it. However, don't you want to know the whereabouts of the Yuan father and son?"
"Don't worry, they can't escape." Zhou Shuiqing said in a faint tone.
The Yuan family and his son were asked to escape from his nose, which made him feel angry, but he believed that unless the Yuan family and his son fled Shanxi, he would be caught sooner or later.
Wang Hu said, "They went to Dong County, not only their father and son, but also the second son of Yuan's family is in Dong County. It would be better to catch you faster. Yuan Chaoju is an old fox. If it is too late, he will run away with his two sons before you attack Dong County."
"Since Commander Yuan and General Yuan have other plans, the subordinates will not be kept. Wang Liang, go prepare dry food and a batch of war horses, and don't delay Commander Yuan's major affairs." Wang Hu did not try to keep him anymore, and directly arranged for his own people to prepare things.
Wang Liang took the order and retreated from the room.
Yuan Chong, who was sitting opposite him, curled his lips.
Seeing that Wang Hu was not even willing to act, he still didn't understand that he wanted to drive them away.
Fortunately, they didn't plan to stay in this Qianhu Institution before they came. After the bandits took Daizhou City, Wang Hu and the garrisons here would definitely become the targets of the bandits' attacks.
"It's a good news, Wang Zheng." Yuan Chaoju hugged his fists with gratitude.
Seeing that Yuan Chaoju gave in front of him for the first time, Wang Hu said proudly: "Commander Yuan doesn't have to leave in such a hurry. It's better to stay next night and let the officials hold a banquet for entertaining them. It's not too late to leave."
"Daizhou City fell into the hands of the bandits, so I was in no mood to stay for dinner. At this time, I wanted to leave immediately to gather troops and take back Daizhou City from the bandits." Yuan Chaoju put on a gesture of being a public servant.
Wang Hu just asked casually, and never thought that he would really have a banquet to entertain the father and son of the Yuan family. He said with the flow: "Since Commander Yuan is anxious to leave and gather troops, it is difficult for the subordinates to stop him. After the Daizhou City is regained, the subordinates will hold a banquet to entertain Commander Yuan."
"I will definitely disturb you when the time comes." Yuan Chaoju smiled and nodded.
Wang Hu had already planned to abandon the thousand households and escape, so he had prepared the war horses and dry food. Wang Liang came out and ordered them, and soon everything was ready.
"General, everything is ready. The dry food is enough for thirty people to eat for three days, and twenty-seven horses have been prepared." Wang Liang came to the room to report.
As he said that, he turned sideways and made a gesture of inviting him behind him.
