As night was approaching, Zhuge Ming sat behind the general's case and looked exhausted.

This was the third day after the Wei army besieged the city. The Qi army in the city had cut off news from the outside, which made the Qi army generals and officials feel uneasy.

They are now besieged by 80,000 Wei troops, and they cannot experience the pressure if they are in it. As generals, Zhuge Ming was under great pressure.

Being besieged is annoying, but the Wei army did not attack the city for three days. This delay method greatly eliminated the spirit of the Qi soldiers.

This is something Zhuge Ming was very worried about. If he didn't even have the agility of the last battle, then what would the Qi army use to resist the powerful Wei army?

Moreover, the Wei army has not acted at all. Although there has not been any battle in the past two days, the Wei army has used various means to persuade the military and civilians in the city to surrender, which is an extreme measure.

"The people of Wei are really hateful!" Zhuge Ming said in a hatred.

He was the only one in the lobby, so Zhuge Ming couldn't find anyone to talk to, so he could only feel sulky.

In fact, in Qufu City, there are not many people worthy of conversation with Zhuge Ming.

Lubo Jimi Zhuge Ming disdained to talk to him, and another person was his partner this time, Zhou Can, the general who led another Qi army.

However, Zhuge Ming and Zhou Can cannot get along because their class or political stances are opposed.

Zhuge Ming was born into the Zhuge family in Linzi, but Zhou Can was a poor general promoted by the king. It would be strange if they could get together.

But sometimes I was afraid of anything. Just when Zhuge Ming was upset, Zhou Can walked in from the lobby.

"General Zhuge, I think something is very strange. I will discuss it with you!" Zhou Can said after entering the lobby.

Although he was very disgusted with Zhou Can in his heart, everyone is in the same trench now, so Zhuge Ming still gets along well with Zhou Can on the surface.

So Zhuge Ming stood up and pretended to greet Zhou Can and said, "What's the matter that General Zhou wants to come here in person?"

Zhou Can was a little surprised when Zhuge Ming was so eager.

Qi is not Wei, and in a strict sense, the national affairs are still controlled by the aristocratic races, so Zhou Can's white body is involuntarily facing Zhuge Ming and is short.

After the two of them were polite, Zhou Cancai talked about the serious matter: "Brother Zhuge, a captain came to report to the Beicheng I controlled just now, saying that guests came to Xu's house this afternoon, and they also went there several times!"

"The Wei army has been besieging the city these days, and there are almost no contacts between each household in the north city. Today, the Xu family has come so many times. I feel it is very suspicious!"

After hearing Zhou Can's words, Zhuge Ming had the urge to curse at that time. The mansion was just a reception for guests, so what was there to doubt?

Although he disagreed, Zhuge Ming still asked: "Xu family, that Xu family?"

Zhou Can said, "It's the Xu family in the north of the city!"

"The Xu family in the north of the city..." Zhuge Ming read it again. He had an impression of this family and knew that the Xu family was the largest family in Qufu.

These days, all major families have been closed and closed their doors, but the Xu family has the time to attract guests. I have to say that it is indeed suspicious.

What's more, the other party is a Qufu clan, so his abnormal behavior is even more acceptable.

In order to defend the city, no suspicion can be left behind. This is the principle set by Zhuge Ming for himself.

So, after Zhuge Ming thought about it three times, he said to Zhou Can: "Since it is abnormal, then arrest them all!"

"The Xu family supported Ji Yi at the beginning. Who knows whether he still cares about Wei State? We would rather kill the wrong one than let it go!"

After hearing Zhuge Ming's words, Zhou Can also agree, and even wanted to execute these people directly.

But Zhuge Ming could not agree to him doing this. After all, they are now in Qufu City, and there are nearly 100,000 people of Lu in it, and they still need to get the support of people of Lu.

The North City is controlled by Zhou Can, so of course he should also do the arrest of people.

So he clapped his palms and came in from outside the lobby. Zhou Can asked the man to convey the military order.

So, after the conversation between the two, the fate of the Xu family and other major families was determined.

In fact, when Xu Wei called Xie Zhou and the other two at the beginning, he was still very secretive. Later, when he called the second wave of people, he was accidentally discovered by the soldiers of Qi.

But the Qi army knew it a little late. When they mobilized soldiers to rush to Xu Wei's mansion, the Xu family's conspiracy was over.

The final result was that Xu Wei convinced everyone and let them take a risk.

Of course, the reason why everyone was able to pass was because the Xu family won the soldiers patrolling the city, which made their success rate much higher.

When everyone left the Xu Mansion secretly, their plan had already begun to be implemented, but the Xu Mansion became the most idle one.

At this time, Xu Wei was negotiating benefits with Jian Ding, after all, he helped Jian Ding to cause this matter.

Jian Ding naturally agreed to Xu Wei's request. Anyway, he reported it, and it was not his business whether the superior could agree.

However, Jian Ding was very anxious about this matter. He just wanted to leave the Xu family as soon as possible. This place was still too dangerous for him, even though the Xu family had agreed to his request.

"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, I, Jian, will definitely present you with your merits. Your benefits are absolutely indispensable. Jian will still ask you to take care of you at that time!" Jian Ding said flatteringly, but in fact he was no longer at this time.

Xu Wei laughed and left, but still put Jian Ding under house arrest.

After letting Jian Ding go, he lost contact with Wei State. If the Wei army breaks the city, no one can prove the contribution of his Xu family, so Xu Wei must keep Jian Ding.

Xu Wei actually didn't believe Jian Ding's words. He now only prayed that the family could be preserved in the war.

But at this time, a team of soldiers had already arrived to the Xu Mansion, and they were here to arrest people!

When Zhou Can stayed at Zhuge Ming's place to discuss the war, while waiting for the Xu family to be controlled, soldiers came to report that the Xu family had really rebelled directly.

This shocked Zhuge Ming and both of them. Although they suspected that the Xu family had made ill plans before, they actually didn't believe it. Who knew that the Xu family was really rebelling.

"Okay courage!" Zhuge Ming cursed angrily.

Then he said to the soldier: "If you pass the order, the Xu family will not leave any living person. If you dare to rebel against our Qi State, you will have to pay the price!"

Zhou Can was also very angry at this time. Beicheng was the territory he controlled, so the Xu family didn't take him seriously!

Moreover, this also means that Zhou Can's villain was born below because he was unable to suppress it.

"Kill, don't leave any one!" Zhou Can also said.

The two generals issued an order at the same time and came to report the soldiers and hurriedly sent the order, but no one could save the Xu family.

The Xu family's shouts of killing quickly alarmed the mansion next to them, and then the news spread quickly.

Half an hour later, the heads of the family who were attending the meeting learned about the situation of the Xu family, and at this time Zhuge Ming also issued an order to destroy the Xu family.

The matter was exposed, and it was just when the families were panicked and afraid. But at this time, they heard that all the Xu family had been killed, so they were even more afraid.

The cruel and domineering methods of the Qi army completely forced the group of people to rebel. They were also afraid that they would be shared by the Xu family and then suffer the fate of extermination.

Therefore, several major tribes launched at the same time, and more than 2,000 Lu soldiers who still existed in the system were mobilized. Their target was the North Gate of Qufu.

When Zhuge Ming and the others were still angry at Ximen, they heard the sound of drums coming from the North Gate, which made their faces change drastically.

This is a signal that a strong enemy has invaded!

The north gate was under Zhou Can's jurisdiction. At this time, he didn't care about etiquette and stood up from his seat and rushed out of the lobby.

At this time, a messenger soldier came to meet Zhou Can on the stone steps outside the lobby.

"What's going on?" Zhou Can asked coldly. This was the second time that something happened in his jurisdiction.
