Chapter 1542

"Sir, what's wrong with you?" The guard was so scared that he quickly reached out to support Xiao Shen and asked with concern.

"It's okay, I'm fine..." Xiao Shen shook his head, stood still hard, and read the letter full of naked threatening words again, then he showed a bitter smile.

"Okay, Zhang Xiaojie, you are a thief who is old and immortal. You are talking about you... I really didn't expect that you actually gave Song people such a vicious plan to remove firewood from the bottom of the pot..."

The guard next to him and the slave looked at the master who shook his head and smiled bitterly, and spoke in a resentful way.

Sitting blankly in the room, slowly handed the handwritten letter from Zhao Sui, the magistrate of Yinzhou of Song State, to the candlelight to light it. Then, watching it turn into ash smoke in the rolling flames, Xiao Shen then let out a long breath of turbid air and stood up.

"It seems that when you stop breaking, you will suffer from chaos. This sentence is indeed true. When Zhang Xiaojie was my teacher, he once said that I was too indecisive. Unfortunately, I didn't care much. I didn't expect that today, it was because of this..."

"Let's go back to the study. I am the general manager of Hedong Road in the Great Liao Dynasty. Before surrendering to Songting, I am the final decision on this Hedong Road."

Just as everyone was talking, Xiao Shen appeared in the study again, and his eyes swept over the Hedongdao civil and military officials present.

"How have you discussed the matter of surrendering to Song Ting?"

"We all think it is better to listen to the advice of the Lord." When Xiao Amo heard this, he saw the figure of Youchuo outside the door, and he couldn't help but feel a sudden blow. He quickly bowed to Xiao Shen and expressed his allegiance to Xiao Shen.

"What do you guys think?" Xiao Shen just nodded casually at this time, and glanced at the eight civil and military officials who had not yet expressed their opinions in the study.

"The last general (lower official) would like to listen to the advice of the Lord." The three generals and a civil servant stood up and said to Xiao Shenyi.

The other four looked at each other, and one of them stood up as a representative and said to Xiao Shenyi. "Sir, we are willing to obey the orders of the Lord. However, the State of Song is unwilling to agree to our request. If we surrender, it would be better for us to stay in Northern Liao, this..."

"Well, I understand what you mean. I have carefully considered this. Since that's the case..." Xiao Shen took a deep breath.

"Come here, please ask these four adults to go out and give each of them a separate room, so that they can think about it carefully."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen Khitan warriors with helmets and armored and swords were unsheathed from the door suddenly ran into the door. Before the four people could react, they directly held all the four officials hostage and dragged them outwards.

The four of them changed their faces and they shouted in succession. "Sir, we are your confidants. Sir, we are willing to surrender, we are willing to surrender..."

Xiao Shen didn't even blink his eyelids, and the murderous warriors dragged the four people out of the study. After the screams of the four people stopped abruptly, a faint smile appeared on Xiao Shen's face.

"My dear sirs, since we want to surrender to Song Ting, what we need must be a strong-willed hero. If there are too many people like them who are indomitable and carefree, they will probably not be able to do anything. It would be better to give them a pleasure."

"It just so happens that their reputation as the loyal minister of Geng, the great Liao Dynasty, will be spared from being implicated by their relatives and family members in Liao... "

Yelu Sigu bowed to Xiao Shenyi and said with a gratitude. "Sure enough, sir, you are kind-hearted. When you are at this time, you can still consider your subordinates, which makes me admire you.

At this time, the general is worried that at that time, some unwilling traitors will be detrimental to the general, so he also asked the general to agree to let the general hand over the military power, and let the general become a guard beside the general, willing to use his life to ensure the safety of the general."

As soon as these words were spoken, the other generals lit up their eyes. They were not convinced by the local conditions and were convinced by Yelu Sigu. In this way, Xiao Shen, the chief general of Hedongdao, should not have killed him and others, so they hurriedly fell to the ground and expressed their loyalty to the indifferent Xiao Shen.

"Everyone, how can you do this? You can't let you all stay by my side. In this way, how can you arrange to surrender to Song Ting? But your words remind me of my official. Xianzhong, come in..."

"Master!" A powerful Khitan warrior with a helmet and armor, Wu Kong strode into the foot of Xiao Shen.

"I want you to transfer a battalion of troops to protect these five adults. Don't let those gangsters with ulterior motives hurt these adults."

"Master, don't worry, I will always protect the safety of these adults, and certainly will not harm these adults." Xiao Xianzhong clasped his fists heavily, gritted his teeth and said viciously.

These civil and military officials stared blankly at the Hedong Road General Manager in front of him. Lord Xiao, who was obviously afraid of wolves and tigers after coming a few days ago, was hesitant to surrender to Song Ting, suddenly became so decisive as if he had changed his mind.

It really makes people wonder if this guy is someone else wearing Xiao Shen's skin. Next, Xiao Shen signaled Xiao Xianzhong to leave the study, and then signaled the civil and military officials who swore all their loyalty to him to sit back. Then he said.

"I did not expect that Wang Yang and Wang Wushan would be so powerful. Now that Ningbian Prefecture was broken by Song Ting, the Jin Su army and the Heqing army would become dangerous, which would mean that we would cut off our return to Xijing Road."

"So at this time, it's better to surrender early than to surrender late. No matter what, even if we can't get Song Ting to win his wife and son, we can at least protect the military and civilians in the south of Hedong Road. At least it's a good thing for the people."

"Your Madam is right. If you have such a kind heart, I believe that if the people of Hedongdao know, they will definitely be grateful..."

Half an hour later, Yelu Sigu and Xiao Amo were escorted together in a four-wheeled carriage. Under the escort of more than a hundred elite cavalry and a thousand cavalrymen, they left Xiazhou that night and headed towards the Left Xiang Army's Mida Cave.

Yelu Zhongguang went to Xiangyou Army to govern the army and speed up the troops to avoid any conflicts with the Song people.

In the carriage, Yelu Sigu had a gloomy face and whispered to Xiao Amo.

"Just just now, Xiao Shen must have received another news that was very unfavorable to him. In other words, if he did not surrender to Song Ting, there would be no way out, so his attitude and behavior suddenly changed..." Xiao Amo stroked his long beard and patiently explained to Yelu Sigu.

"Is it that the incident in Ningbian Prefecture was not the main reason why Xiao Shen made up his mind?" Yelu Sigu said in disbelief.

"This is not something I can know..." Xiao Amo shook his head slowly. "As for the reason why Xiao Shen wanted to kill those four people, in fact, in addition to their weak will, there is another big reason."
