When King Ahui of Zuo Xian met the world-famous Hun Emperor Qin II, Qin II deliberately found two or three beautiful maids to wash his feet. While doing so, he made pleasant sounds and turned a blind eye to this high-ranking Xiongnu official. Zuo Xian

The king was angry at the same time, but at the same time he was glad that with such an emperor here, the Qin Kingdom would be in the hands of the Xiongnu sooner or later.

When he entered the city just now, he found that the city was almost unguarded. Several war horses were all skinny and about to be blown down by the wind. There were no more than fifty chariots at most. The antlers of the horses were uneven. Even the flag of the Emperor of Qin was missing.

There were several holes, like a beggar wearing discarded clothes. This was too miserable. It didn't look like the defense had just been deployed, but it looked like a city that had just been conquered!

"The envoy of the Great Xiongnu is here to see the Emperor of Great Qin!" A said, just bowing slightly as a salute.

Wang Ben, Xia Houying, Meng Duo and other generals standing on both sides glared at him, it was too arrogant.

"Bold envoy of the Huns, you still don't kneel down when you see His Majesty!" Xia Houying was the first to hold back.

Ah Shui rolled his eyes and nostrils at him, and snorted coldly, "The envoy of the superior state will not kneel before the lord of the state!"

Xiahou Ying was trembling with anger: "Barbarians, barbarians, they are simply barbarians. They don't understand any etiquette. You Huns don't know how to read or write. You don't know how to kneel down when you see the master of the civilized dynasty. You are just like animals!"

Xia Houying didn't understand the Xiongnu language, so there was a doctor standing next to him, waiting for an interpreter, who explained everything to Ah Shuo.

Ah Shui was furious: "You Southern Barbarians dare to utter arrogant words when death is imminent. I will go back and tell the prince and ask him to send troops to destroy you!"

Qin Ao came up, grabbed Ah Shuo by the collar, and yelled, "I'm going to stomp on you now!"

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, let him finish what he said!" Wang Zhu stopped him hastily.

Ah Shuo was also a fierce general. He pushed Qin Ai away, smoothed his sheepskin cotton robe, and sneered: "How dare you? If I die, the Huns will be able to enter the city in less than two hours."

Wang Zhu knew at a glance that Ah Shui was a foolhardy man. He immediately waved away the maid who was washing feet and said with a smile, "Has the prince read my credentials?" Ah Shuo said contemptuously: "Yes.

Yes, our prince thinks you are respectful and will agree to your request, but there is a condition - "

"What are the conditions? Tell me quickly?"

"The prince said it would take a hundred beauties to make peace with you!"

"No problem, go back and reply to the prince. A hundred beauties are not a problem, as long as he is willing to withdraw his troops!" Wang Zhu expressed excitement.

Ah said he was a little confused. He said that there were soldiers in the city, but it didn't look like what he saw. Besides, the Emperor of Qin acted so scared, and it didn't seem like he was backed by an army of 200,000. He said that there were no soldiers and horses. During the siege of the city,

At this moment of life and death, he was still in the mood to let the beauty wash his feet. What was going on? Ah said that he couldn't understand. He wanted to go back and report the truth to the prince and let him make his own decision.

After listening to what A said, Mao Dun felt even more that the Emperor of Qin was playing tricks. First of all, Sun Tzu said in the Art of War that the enemy's envoy is the biggest spy. Wang Ben, who has experienced many battles, would not understand this truth. How could he tell the truth in the city?

Being exposed so easily in front of Ah Shuo, how could a man as greedy for life and fear of death as Qin II still be in the mood to let a beauty wash his feet when the army was approaching the city? It was more like running away in embarrassment with bare feet.

"Prince, my subordinates have agreed with Qin II to make an alliance outside the city at noon tomorrow. I think it would be better to take the opportunity to capture Qin II and send him to the royal court. That would be a great achievement."

Maodun thought to himself, I'm afraid it won't be that easy.

But he said: "This is a good idea. Go and make preparations. Find five hundred warriors with superb riding skills to prepare a horse trap and catch the Emperor of Qin at the right time."

A said out and then back: "According to the situation in the city, if our army launches a surprise attack tonight, we will definitely win a complete victory. Don't let the Dog Emperor take the opportunity to escape."

Mao Dun shook his head: "This matter is not simple. Let's wait until the alliance meeting tomorrow to take action."

There are many suspicions here in Maodun. Wang Zhu's place is really busy, busy sending the people in the city out of the city overnight. This arduous task is carried out by the injured Meng Duo and Yang Duanhe, and the other generals take the opportunity to rebuild the dilapidated city defense.

After organizing it, you can imagine what kind of crazy behavior Moton will do tomorrow when he finds out that he has been deceived.

By daybreak, most of the people had left the city, but this was not enough. If they had not gone two hundred miles before noon, they still could not escape the pursuit of the Huns' cavalry.

Of course, Wang Zhu would not foolishly go out of the city to make an alliance with Mao Dun. As long as the people were safe, he would immediately flee. The problem was that Wang Zhu was more worried about Shusun Tong, and Mao Dun would eat him alive in his rage.

At noon, the spies came back to report that because the people carried too many pots and pans with them and supported the elderly and the young along the way, the march was very slow. So far, they had only traveled more than a hundred miles, and they were still some distance away from Beidi County.

.

The generals suddenly became nervous, and they all looked at Wang Zhu eagerly, waiting for his instructions!

Wang Zhu looked at everyone's confused eyes and said categorically: "It is the bounden duty of a soldier to protect the safety of people's property. We must cover the people's breakout no matter what... Isn't Mao Dun afraid that we have an ambush? Let's use our plan to scare him away, Li

Shiqi, Wang Ling, you two each lead a thousand men and horses to ambush in the east of the city, and set up false flags and drag tree branches to the west of the city. When the Xiongnu army arrives, I will provoke Maodun at the top of the city and lure him to attack the city. You two are handsome.

The army shouted to fight out and scare Maodun away!"

Wang Ben had a bitter look on his face: "This method is good, but it is too dangerous. If you don't fall into the plan, it will be all over. It is not a pity that the general and others will die. What should I do if your majesty makes any mistakes?"

Wang Zhu pretended to calm down and stabilize the morale of the army: "Don't worry, Mao Dun is very suspicious, he will not attack the city easily. I suddenly regretted it, he must think that there is a conspiracy here, and it will be more convenient to withdraw the troops."

When the generals saw that Wang Zhu's idea was useless, they stopped insisting. Li Shiqi and Xia Houying immediately led their troops to ambush. Wang Zhu, Wang Ben and others went to the tower to prepare archers, kerosene and rolling stones to deal with Mao Dun.

At noon, Mao Dun's army arrived. Mao Dun also wanted to take the opportunity to capture Wang Zhu alive. When he came to the city, he saw that there was no one there, and he felt something was wrong. Flags were flying on the top of the city, generals were gathered, and the soldiers were brightly armored and their weapons were bright.

, his eyes were shining, he was young and strong, and he was definitely not as decadent as King Zuo Xian said. Mao Dun ordered people to go to the city to shout!

"Where is the Emperor of Qin? The Prince of the Huns has something to say!"

Wang Zhu stood at the top of the city wearing a dirty and blood-stained camouflage uniform. He glanced at the cold-looking Mao Dun and couldn't help but feel a chill surge up from the soles of his feet, pass through his spine and go up to the top of his head. He felt that Mao Dun's whole body was moving towards him.

It exuded a deadly air.

"I am the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. I will go back and tell your princes that if we want to negotiate, the Great Chan Yu Touman will come in person and send a prince who is not worthy of me. I will not see him." ++The Huns envoy was dumbfounded.

When the messenger came back and spoke to Mao Dun, Mao Dun immediately cursed: "I've been fooled!"

King Zuo Xian said regretfully: "If you had listened to me earlier -"

Mao Dun looked at him like he was looking at his father's enemy. He was so frightened that he trembled and did not dare to say any more.

"Come here, bring Shusun Tong up to me!"

Shusun Tong was in the team at the moment, and Mao Dun got a car specially for him to treat him as a distinguished guest.

Unexpectedly, the Huns turned against each other much faster than the Qin people. Shusun Tong, who was still warm in the carriage, suddenly heard a burst of shouting. Four or five Huns soldiers rushed in from outside, pulling, dragging, and kicking them.

and pulled him down.

Shusun Tong was once again thrown in front of Moton's horse like a chicken. He pretended to be nothing and shouted: "I am the prince's distinguished guest. How dare you be so rude? Prince, prince, you can't do it."

You have to make the decision for me!" Shusun Tong cried so miserably that his whole family was dead, as if he had been really wronged.

Maodun's riding whip hit him like raindrops: "You bastard, you dare to lie to me. This letter of surrender is fake. This is your delaying strategy."

Shusun Tong understood in his heart, but he pretended to be confused and said suddenly: "Prince, what do you mean? Are you trying to burn down the bridge? At worst, I will lose my gold and beauty, so why hit me?"

"You still dare to quibble. The emperor of Qin is not willing to make a covenant. You are clearly deceiving me." The corners of his mouth twitched in anger and his beard trembled.

"Impossible!" Shusun Tong raised his head in surprise: "Prince, can you please stop joking with me?"

"Who are you kidding? You are a spy of the Qin Dynasty!" King Zuo Xian also took a riding whip and slapped his head and face. He beat Shusun Tong until he was rolling on the ground howling miserably, and he was still arguing: "

Impossible, there must be some misunderstanding here, Prince, there must be a misunderstanding here!"

"You damn spy -" King Zuo Xian became more and more confused as he fought. He pulled out his scimitar with a clang and was about to chop it down. Wang Zhu saw it clearly from the tower, as if he was anxious about something. Suddenly an idea struck him.

He shouted: "Good fight, good fight, Shusun Tong, you are a thief, how dare you betray me and ruin my good deeds. I want to kill your whole family, come here, take Shusun Tong's wife, children, mother-in-law and mother-in-law."

Bring all the aunts and uncles to me!"

Although Wang Ben understood Wang Zhu's intention, he was still in a dilemma: "Your Majesty, are you going to kill someone? Where are Shusun Tong's family members in Xianyang?"

Wang Zhu was sweating on his forehead: "Of course I know. You can't be killed even here! Go to the prison and bring some prisoners to gagged them and take them to the city wall. Go quickly."

"As ordered——" Wang Ben led his men on horseback and went straight to the prison.

After the severe punishment laws implemented by the Qin State, a big and thorny problem arose, that is, the prisons were not enough. There were too many prisoners, and even ten times more prisons were not enough.

If you say something wrong on the street, you will be arrested and sentenced. If you are absent from the corvee, you will be sentenced. If you pay a penny less when paying taxes, you will be sentenced. Even if the crops fail due to laziness, you will be sentenced. There are also various types of punishments, including beheading,

There are many ways to cut off the legs, cut off the nose, gouge out the eyes, split the body, and cut off the waist.

When Wang Ben arrived at the prison, he didn't waste any time at all. He selected seventeen or eight good-looking death row inmates, including men, women, old and young, all covered in blood, slovenly and in a state of wretchedness, and packed them all onto the tower.

King Zuo Xian was beating Shusun Tong with a whip while cursing: "Stop playing tricks, I will never believe you devil Qin people anymore, liars cursed by Changshengtian." He was glared at by Mao Dun just now, and he still felt a little bit in his heart.

Fire.

"Shusun Tong, you betrayed the Qin Dynasty, and the Huns will not tolerate you. This is your retribution. Look, your whole family is here, and someone is here to prepare for execution!"

The soldiers in charge of escorting pushed the condemned prisoners to the ground and pulled out their swords with loud clangs! The group of condemned prisoners had not yet reached the day of execution. When they saw the swords coming out of their sheaths behind them, they were so frightened that they screamed and burst into tears.

His mouth was gagged, and his hands were tied tightly with ropes and he couldn't move.

Wang Zhu scolded sternly: "Struggling is nothing. If you die early or later, you will not be dead. Now that you have made a contribution to the country, I will not treat your family badly. Someone is here to prepare for execution."

Shusun Tong, who was at the bottom of the city, suddenly jumped up like a carp and rolled and crawled towards the bottom of the city.

Mao Dun picked up his bow and arrow and prepared to shoot him to death.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, no, please let my family go. I deserve to die. I am a wolf and a dog-hearted person. Please have mercy, Your Majesty. Your Majesty -" He knelt on the ground and kowtowed, bleeding.

The play was well performed, Wang Zhu admired in his heart, this old guy is much better than Hua Zai!!

"It's too late to regret now!" Wang Zhu said through gritted teeth. "Cut it down!"

"Mother!" A human head rolled down from the top of the city. Shusun Tong didn't even notice the man or woman clearly, so he howled loudly, crying so hard that the river changed color.

"Son, father, aunt, cousin—Hunjun, I and you are at odds with each other, Hunjun, I will kill you—"

Heads rolled down one by one from the three-foot-high blue-grey city wall, and the blood in their chests immediately left a bloody streak on the city tower.

"Hunjun - my whole family -" Shusun Tong couldn't breathe due to excessive grief, his eyes turned white and he fainted.

On the top of the city, Qin Diao, Qin She bent his bow and shot arrows at Shusun Tong. Some of the arrows hit his arms, thighs, and some were only inches away from his head and heart.

Mao Dun didn't know that the two brothers were expert archers, so he was convinced of the big show in front of him. He ordered King Zuo Xian.

"Quickly, rescue sir!"

Shusun Tong pretended to faint. After being hit by an arrow, he jumped up from the ground in pain. He thought to himself, there is no need to act so realistically. Bang, he was hit by an arrow in the ribs and fainted immediately. This time he really fainted.

King Zuo Xian sent his troops to rescue Shusun Tong, who had been wailing under his whip just now.

When they picked up Shusun Tong and headed back, arrows suddenly rained down from the top of the city, blocking out the sky and the sun. Several of the Huns' cavalry fell off their horses immediately.

There was a gunshot at the top of the city, and horseshoes were raining in the east and west of the city. The sky was covered with dust. It seemed that a large number of ambush troops were coming. Wang Zhu was at the top of the city, laughing loudly: "Modun, you have been fooled. This will make you unable to come."

Go back, Baishan Mountain has been taken over by me, you can't go back to the Huns."

"Catch Mao Dun alive, capture Mao Dun alive!" Wang Zhu raised his arms and shouted.

Some soldiers of the Qin army thought there was really an ambush, and happily followed the emperor and shouted: "Capture Moton alive, capture Moton alive!" Didn't they know that their emperor's heart seemed to be filled with seventeen or eight little mice beating gongs and drums, and he was in chaos.

When Mao Dun saw two groups of ambush troops coming out, the Qin army's morale was high. He also heard that Meng Tian had occupied Baishan Mountain. He was shocked and said: "There is no ambush, retreat quickly!" The barge horses retreated back.

The drums were beating loudly on top of the city, the shouts were loud, and the whole battlefield was full of killing intent!

The Hun cavalry came and went like the wind without any hindrance. Before the two ambushes could reach them, they had already disappeared without a trace.

In fact, the two groups of ambush soldiers didn't dare to kill them, and they were all defeated as soon as they showed up.
