Sui and Tang Dynasty Generals

Chapter 83: Rebellion! All the people in the city are preparing for war! Looking directly at the admirer in my heart

"what!"

"what!"

In the prison cell of Jinyang City, Song Jianfeng was stripped of his clothes, hung up and beaten until his skin was torn and flesh was exposed. He was then dragged away. After waiting for an hour, he was caught and whipped again.

While being whipped again and again, Song Jianfeng was puzzled to find that it seemed that he was the only one being beaten. Chu Bo, who was obviously in one of the many cells closer to the punishment rack, was completely fine.

Finally, when he was beaten to death, Song Jianfeng, in a trance, heard the jailer who whipped him say to another jailer that he had fainted, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Not wanting to suffer any more physical pain, Song Jianfeng pretended to faint.

However, in a trance, Song Jianfeng seemed to hear a voice, vaguely visible.

"Fortunately, Brother Chu secretly reminded me this time..."

"Brother Chu, rest assured. As long as we can weaken Wei Dao'er this time... when General Yang of Hebei takes the opportunity to recapture the northern border... the county chief..."

Song Jianfeng gasped slightly, not daring to believe what he heard. However, it was indeed at the city gate, and it was exactly the same voice as that of the captain. There was also Chu Bo's voice, although it was very small, but it seemed to be Chu Bo's voice.

Impossible! It can't be Chu Bo! It can't be Chu Bo!

Song Jianfeng couldn't believe that Chu Bo would betray Duke Wei, but for some reason, he thought that Fenwu Wei was suddenly sent to Jinyang City, and as soon as he arrived in Jinyang City, he hurriedly repaired the city defenses and dug the moat.

Soon.

The jailer came back with a bucket of water and poured it on Song Jianfeng. The biting cold made Song Jianfeng unable to hold back any more water.

The real coldness is not pouring a bucket of water all over the body, which will make the body burn. What really makes people shiver is a spoonful of water that wets a part of the body that still has body temperature.

When the jailer saw Song Jianfeng wake up, he continued to whip him without hesitation until Song Jianfeng collapsed from exhaustion and was then dragged away.

When passing by Chu Bo's cell, Song Jianfeng's face turned pale and he couldn't help but look at Chu Bo. Seeing Chu Bo tied up and gagged, Song Jianfeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although I feel unbalanced, but...

Suddenly, Song Jianfeng noticed that someone seemed to have sat on the other side of the wooden table next to the tied-up Chu Bo.

Before Song Jianfeng could think more, he was dragged away by the jailer.

After a few breaths, Chu Bo's cell was slowly opened. Fu Zihou brought Xia Jia to the cell. Looking at Chu Bo with his mouth blocked, Fu Zihou did not loosen Chu Bo's mouth, but brought a bowl of half a chicken left.

"You said, let's beat up Song Jianfeng later, and then take these and walk past his cell to make the prison complain a few times... Or we should leave these here with you, and then use drugs to make you pass out, and give Song Jianfeng a chance to walk out of the cell at night, and let him come outside your cell and see you sleeping!"

Fu Zihou came to the wooden table and sat down cross-legged, ignoring the stench around him and the dust on the ground.

"Song Jianfeng used to have a weak mouth. He said a lot under the influence of alcohol and sex! The noble families in the city have already said that Song Jianfeng is a relative of the thief Song Jingang, and your family background! Guess what, I will have someone cut off Song Jianfeng's tongue and chop off his fingers, making him a cripple, and then throw him into the river. If he survives, what will happen to your wife, father, mother, and children in the future?"

As Fu Zihou spoke, a smile appeared on his face. The look he gave Chu Bo seemed to show that he was very excited and expectant when he thought of those scenes.

"I heard that you are very filial. When your mother was seriously ill, you stayed by her side all the time. When you were a child, your father knelt in front of the children of officials from the Sui Dynasty for five days because you offended them..."

Fu Zihou told Xia Jia what he had heard, and when he saw that Chu Bo had stopped struggling and glaring at him, he asked Xia Jia to untie the rope for Chu Bo.

"You should know Song Jianfeng's character better than me. If he can't share the same hardships with me, he will have complaints in his heart. These means are enough to make him do what I want to see!"

Fu Zihou looked at Chu Bo and reminded him again, signaling Chu Bo not to struggle fearlessly anymore.

"What do you want from me?"

Chu Bo looked at Fu Zihou. As a smart man, he saw that Fu Zihou had set up so many tricks for him, so he knew that Fu Zihou wanted to win him over.

"Eat two bites of chicken, you'll have some strength. I'll need you to help me chop off Song Jianfeng's hands and feet later!"

Fu Zihou answered Chu Bo directly.

Chu Bo's face changed when he heard this, and he looked at Fu Zihou in horror. He understood very well that this way, he would have no room for maneuver.

"Aren't you afraid that I will go out and tell Duke Wei everything that happened here? Duke Wei will definitely believe me!"

Chu Bo looked at Fu Zihou and said.

Fu Zihou shook his head.

"Whether Lord Wei believes you or not, as long as Song Jianfeng is alive, the result will be the same! You are Lord Wei's adviser, not Song Jingang's relative!"

Fu Zihou sneered. Chu Bo now had only two choices. Either cut off Song Jianfeng's hands and feet, or Fu Zihou tortured Song Jianfeng beyond recognition and then let him go accidentally.

"I am useless alone. There are more than 100,000 soldiers outside the city. Even if I become your accomplice, I cannot change the outcome!"

Chu Bo was breathing heavily and looking at Fu Zihou with shock and fear, wanting Fu Zihou to accept the reality.

However, under Chu Bo's angry eyes and under the gaze of Xia Jia, Fu Zihou remained silent for a few breaths.

"What if one day I want to fight my way out?"

Fu Zihou looked at Chu Bo. "Impossible! Even if you mobilized all the men in East City, you would not be able to defeat the army outside the city!"

When Chu Bo heard Fu Zihou's words, he felt like he was looking at a madman, but for some reason, looking at Fu Zihou's young face, looking at Fu Zihou's eyes, and thinking about Fu Zihou's actions during this period of time.

Chu Bo inexplicably felt a palpitation in his heart, and goose bumps appeared at this moment.

"One day there will be an opportunity! You are a smart man, and when that day comes, you will definitely find it!"

Fu Zihou looked at Chu Bo. Now the rebel army was just outside the city. As Wei Daoer's strategist, Chu Bo would be of no use at the moment, whether he was used to threaten the rebels or to kill them to vent his anger.

But if he can be released as an insider, it will definitely play an unexpected role in deciding the outcome.

Fu Zihou valued Chu Bo's intelligence and his ability to judge the situation.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have spent so much time and effort, even going so far as to find someone with a voice similar to Chu Bo's.

"Don't worry! If the city is breached, no matter if it's me or you, we can kill Song Jianfeng. If I lose, I still hope you can say something nice to save your life!"

Fu Zihou slowly stood up, told Chu Bo the last concern in his mind, and put Chu Bo at ease.

"How about eating while walking?"

Fu Zihou looked at Chu Bo and suggested with a smile.

Chu Bo breathed rapidly as he looked at Fu Zihou in front of him. Recently, everyone had laughed at this young man as a rat lieutenant, but he never looked down on this young man. Unexpectedly, he still underestimated this young man's boldness and means.

After a few breaths, Chu Bo, under the gazes of Fu Zihou and Xia Jia, picked up half of the chicken in the bowl with one hand, put it in his mouth and ate while standing up.

Song Jianfeng was lying in the cell, feeling pain all over his body. Hearing the noise, he turned his head and looked at Fu Zihou and Xia Jia with fear in his eyes, and at Chu Bo who walked in with a gloomy face, eating meat and holding a sword.

After a while.

Under the gazes of Fu Zihou and Xia Jia, Chu Bo made up his mind and raised the sword in his hand.

A huge howl sounded in the cell.

........................

In East City.

Under the call for conscription, and with the help of propaganda from the nobles and respected elders in East City, all the people knew that the group of thieves outside the city had committed all kinds of atrocities, including rape and looting. Wherever they passed, the people were slaughtered, the women were killed, and the children were used as food.

At the city gate, all males, from the age of sixty to eleven or twelve, were registered.

The young men were given weapons and armor, the old men were then responsible for making arrows in the city and repairing the city defense equipment during war. The children who were able to bear the responsibilities of carrying things into the city roads to provide supplies for the soldiers defending the city during war.

All houses and people's tools had to be registered, and under the publicity, all the people volunteered to do their part to defend the city.

These scenes not only ignited the blood of the soldiers defending the city, making them no longer fearful when they thought of the nearly 100,000 rebel troops outside the city, but also made the people from the aristocratic families who were originally threatened, those elders from the aristocratic families, inexplicably gain confidence, and thus changed from being forced to promote the event to promoting it with all their might.

“I really can’t go back!”

Standing on the top of the city wall, looking at the distant plain outside the city, which was filled with densely packed rebels, and looking at the towering siege weapons, Cui Wenjin's face was truly filled with despair.

Thinking of his brother, father, mother and sister, Cui Wenjin couldn't believe what would happen if they couldn't find him.

Sigh.

Cui Wenjin could never have imagined that after secretly coming to Jinyang, he would be trapped in Jinyang and unable to leave!

for a long time.

When Cui Wenjin came to his senses, he looked at both sides of the city wall and saw busy soldiers everywhere, busy setting up high platforms. Countless soldiers were talking, and from their faces, one could not tell that they were afraid of the large number of rebels on the plain behind them.

Looking at the very young children and women carrying arrows, Cui Wenjin had only been in Jinyang for a few days, but comparing their previous appearance and looking at the current appearance, if she had not seen it with her own eyes, she would not have dared to imagine that there would be such a big change.

Cui Wenjin knew that all this happened because of that young man.

Looking at the people in the city, whether children, women, or the elderly, and looking at the busy soldiers, they were all ready to fight the rebels without fear.

Thinking that all of them were like this because of a young man, thinking that all of them believed in that young man.

As my mind recalls, I think of the young man's appearance.

Cui Wenjin's heart couldn't help but beat rapidly, just like when she was in Qinghe County, the young man was ordered to save Qinghe County. Looking at the scenes before her, in her eyes, the young hero was nothing more than this.

Until this moment.

Cui Wenjin could finally face the questions her brother asked her in Ji County.

Yes!
She was attracted by this young man!

In her eyes, this young man named Fu Zihou is a hero!
A rare hero in the world!
