Chapter 187: Forced

"Zhongli!"

Among the Yuan family soldiers, Yuan Xiu covered his face with a cloth. Read

The smug smile on his face completely froze.

As planned, they ambushed Mo Di and his party.

As expected, Mo Di and his party were completely caught off guard.

Now, if he is given another quarter of an hour, he can kill Mo Di and his son.

But he never thought that Zhongli would appear in this place.

And judging from Zhong Li's posture, he was completely coming for them.

"What's going on?" Yuan Xiu was stunned.

Could it be that Yuan Li changed his mind and asked Zhongli to come and rescue Mo Di and his son.

For a moment, his head was like a paste.

Until Zhongli led the cavalry into the formation, one person was in the lead, the silver spear pierced a soldier's body, and shouted loudly, he found something wrong.

"General Mo, I am Zhongli, entrusted by the King of Yan to come to rescue the general, please follow me to break out of the siege." Zhongli shouted.

Mo Yu was overjoyed to see Zhongli.

He knew that Zhongli had secretly surrendered to the King of Yan.

Mo Di was a little confused. Zhongli was under Yuan Li's command, so how could he be here?

Without time to explain, Mo Yu pushed his father onto the horse brought by Zhongli's soldiers.

Zhongli led the soldiers to kill in the direction of Yanguan.

This time, he must have alarmed Yuan Li by leaving the city.

I'm afraid Yuan Li has sent out pursuers.

For him, this place cannot be stayed for long.

"Stop them!"

Yuan Xiu saw the Mo family father and son escape, and shouted urgently.

However, Zhongli's cavalry of more than 4,000 charged, and the ambushed Yuan family soldiers were in chaos.

Zhongli also did not want to fight, and broke through the siege and went to Yanguan.

Yuan Xiu could only stare at the Mo family father and son who were gradually dying.

"Hey!"

Seeing Zhongli and his men dying in the snow raised by the horses' hooves, he fiercely tore off the cloth on his face.

He was angry, and suddenly saw another cavalry coming from the south.

He also knew the person in front, who was also a general of the Yuan family.

"Asshole!" Yuan Xiu was so angry that he immediately ordered his soldiers to raise their spears to fight.

But the cavalry slowly stopped in front of them.

The leading general asked: "Are the father and son of the Mo family dead?"

"What's wrong with you!" Yuan Xiu did not answer, but shouted angrily.

He glanced at the battlefield and frowned, "Zhongli rebelled, and the governor ordered me to capture him."

Yuan Xiu frowned and thought to himself that this was the case. He sighed, "The father and son of the Mo family were rescued by him."

The general sighed softly when he heard this, and he said: "The governor has ordered that if the ambush fails, return to Fanyang as soon as possible."

Yuan Xiu nodded, shouted, and led his troops south.

This way.

Zhongli protected Mo Di and his son and trudged all night to Yanguan.

On the way, Mo Yu told Mo Di everything.

"General Mo, Yuan Li is so bold. If the ambush fails, he will take risks. You should be careful in Yanguan." Zhongli said.

Mo Di's face turned pale and he said angrily: "The court supported the Yuan family and ordered him to guard Yanzhou. I didn't expect that he would raise a vicious wolf. This time I must meet the emperor and wipe out the Yuan family."

Mo Yu nodded heavily. In the past, he thought that the Yuan family was just like the eight powerful families, a arrogant local force.

I didn't expect Yuan Li to do such a thing as murdering an official appointed by the court.

If it weren't for the King of Yan and Zhongli this time, they would have died tragically.

For him, the Yuan family is now his mortal enemy.

"Fortunately, there is still the King of Yan in Yanzhou, otherwise the Yuan family will eventually become a disaster." Mo Yu said.

Mo Di never chooses one side among the various forces.

But Mo Yu's words made him sigh in his heart.

If the Yuan family continues to run rampant in Yanzhou, it will be a threat to him and Yanguan.

Whether it was out of admiration for the King of Yan or loyalty to the royal family.

He felt that he should impeach the Yuan family to Emperor Zhao Heng and support the King of Yan.

Thinking of this, he said to Zhongli: "Don't worry, Captain Zhong. No one can shake me in Yanguan. What should I do next?"

"I guess Yuan Li has declared me a traitor. In this case, I will just take my loyal men to the King of Yan and serve under him from now on." Zhongli said.

Mo Yu was delighted and held Zhongli's hands, "Great, in this way, we can serve as generals under the King of Yan together."

Mo Di nodded, "Captain Zhong, you should go to Yan County now. I'm afraid Yuan Li will send troops to hunt you down."

Zhongli nodded.

Mo Yu bowed to Zhongli, "The current situation in Yanguan is unclear. I want to stay with my father for a while. I hope the captain will explain to His Highness when he arrives in Yancheng."

"Don't worry." Zhongli clasped his fists.

After saying that, he turned his horse around and led his soldiers to Yancheng.

…

Fanyang.

Yuan Li's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it. He never thought that his plan would be ruined by Zhongli.

"Did Zhongli know that his father was killed by Gaoyuan?" Guo Tu pondered.

"Is it still related? What should we do now? Mozi knows that the assassination was done by my Yuan family, so how can he give up?" Yuan Xiu said.

"That's nothing, they have no evidence." Guo Tu said.

The whole thing was just a verbal order, and the children of the Yuan family who did not participate were captured.

Compared with this, he was more worried about the Yuan family's surrender to Enke.

Thinking of this, he looked at Yuan Li, only to see Yuan Li looking at him.

At this time, they were probably thinking of the same thing.

At this time.

A servant of the Yuan Mansion came in and said, "Sir, someone outside the manor asked to see him, and he even gave me a name card."

"No!" Yuan Lizheng was annoyed, not in the mood to see guests, and waved his hand impatiently.

"It's just that the man said that after reading the name post, he will definitely meet him." The servant said.

Yuan Li glanced at the name card, took it over and looked at it, and was suddenly shocked.

"You all go out, Guo Tu stays." Yuan Li said to Yuan Xiu and others.

After everyone dispersed, Yuan Li said: "This person is said to be from Enke, and he has something to ask for."

"Beidi had an informant in Yanzhou, but later the King of Yan suffered a heavy setback and disappeared for a while. I didn't expect that there were still some remnants." Guo Tu said.

Yuan Li nodded slightly. Although it was annoying, he had to meet Enke's people.

After a while, a young man dressed as an ordinary merchant walked in.

After giving a slight salute to Yuan Li, the young man said, "I wonder if Lord Yuan successfully ambushed Mo Zhai?"

"Did you know that Mo Zhai returned to Beijing early?" Yuan Li looked surprised.

"Mo Zhai's departure from Yan Pass is not a secret. It is naturally easy to find out." The young man said.

Yuan Li looked at Guo Tu at this time. Guo Tu understood and said with a smile: "There were some mistakes, but Mo Zhai is not dead."

"In this case, it means a failure." The young man said coldly, "In this case, it will be difficult to kill Mo Zhai by alerting the enemy."

Yuan Li looked embarrassed, but did not dare to get angry.

Guo Tu said with a smile: "Please give us some more time, King Enke."

"There is no time." The young man suddenly said loudly: "I am about to go south from Beidi. How can I allow you, the Yuan family, to drag my feet and ruin my important affairs? When I came this time, King Enke told me that if the ambush on Mo Zhai failed, the Yuan family should fight with me. The Beidi army cooperates internally and externally to capture Yanguan!"

"Bastard...bastard, how dare you talk to my Zhou Mu like this." Guo Tu stammered, losing confidence in his words.

Yuan Li snorted. He had never been reprimanded like this before, "What if I don't cooperate? What can he do to me?"

At this time, he was also annoyed.

The young man looked indifferent, "It's simple. The certificate of surrender between Mr. Yuan and our king will appear in the hands of Emperor Dasong. If you are a collaborator with the enemy and the country, Master Yuan, no matter how much face you have, Emperor Dasong will not tolerate you anymore, right?" "
