Zhang Liang knelt down and cried, and actually told something.

Shanhaiguan has been paying money one year ago, and the money has been paid on time.

At first, only part of it was deducted, but in the last three months, it was nothing.

So it is precisely because of this that when Zhezhemu's army passed by, Zhang Liang did not warn or resist.

Of course, this was not the only reason why Zhang Liang betrayed the Ming Dynasty. Because at that time, Zhezhemu sent someone to give Zhang Liang a million taels of silver, as well as food, wine and meat, etc.

And it was this silver that allowed Zhang Liang to support the defenders until now.

Zhang Liang said that he had no choice but to let the eight thousand soldiers from Shanhaiguan starve to death here alive.

What he said made sense, Ye Xiuwen also listened to it, but asked back: "Is this the reason for your rebellion?"

Everyone present suddenly froze. And especially Zhang Liang.

There is only one reason why Zhang Liang killed Ye Xiuwen, which is that they have betrayed the Ming Dynasty and are nominally Zhezhemu's people.

But Zhezhemu was injured and sent someone to send a message, not saying when he would come back. So Zhang Liang's identity at this time was very embarrassing.

"Ask you a question, why does the court owe you food and salary?" Ye Xiuwen asked again when he saw that everyone present had nothing to say.

At this moment, this sentence was like a life-saving straw. Zhang Liang hurriedly said, "I don't know the specifics, but the prince of the clan has an order, let us hold on first, hold on. But we can't hold on anymore. These eight thousand elite soldiers have no money, and in the end they have no food. Let us stay here, what should we use to guard? In the end, even some weapons are sold. But we dare not sell them with one piece of weapons. Selling weapons is a death sentence, alas,..."

"Prince, everything the general said is true. Please forgive me!"

At the same time, all the generals and officials knelt down.

"I can't confirm what you said, because the prince of the clan is dead."

Ye Xiuwen said again, but Zhang Liang and others didn't say anything. They were also very clear about the death of the prince of the clan. So no one testified for them at this time, but life and death were only between Ye Xiuwen's thoughts.

At this time, Ye Xiuwen said again: "Give you a chance. If you are allowed to continue to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, would you be willing?"

"ah?"

Zhang Liang was surprised at first, but then kowtowed again and said, "We are willing to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and will remain unswerving until death!"

"We are willing to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and remain loyal to our death!"

The generals agreed, while Ye Xiuwen threw down a baggage and said, "These are your money you have paid for over the years. After all, I will share it with me to kill the enemy. And if you are afraid of the enemy, then you will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes, it's the prince!"

"Prince, Qiansheng, Qiansheng, Qiansheng, Qiansheng,..."

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

The generals were forgiven for their sins and had money, so they hurriedly bowed.

Ye Xiuwen didn't say anything, just waited for the generals to share the money.

"Prince? Who are you going to take us to beat?"

With money, Ye Xiuwen is no longer the prince, that is his father. Zhang Liang bent down and talked behind Ye Xiuwen.

"Take back the Bauhinia Pavilion."

Ye Xiuwen said lightly, but at this moment, Zhang Liang hesitated and said, "Prince, the Bauhinia Pavilion is not easy to deal with. The leader of the fishman general is called An Luda, an expert in the late stage of the Lingyuan realm. Originally, I was thinking of waiting for Zhezhemu to leave and take over the Bauhinia Pavilion. The brothers also had some food to eat. But I didn't expect the fishman to occupy it. And there was a master in charge, so I didn't move. So, General, this......"

"How far a person can go is his heart.

Some people like to live a mediocre life, so they will have to do nothing in their entire lives.

You think you have seen through everything, but in fact, you are just lying to yourself." Ye Xiuwen looked at Zhang Liang with a squint look. Zhang Liang thought about it, but said incomprehensiblely: "Prince? It's not that I'm talking too much. Some things can't be done even if I think about it? At that time, I wanted to station in Zijin Pavilion. At that time, Lielong's strength was not as strong as me. But in just a few years, he made rapid progress, making me far beyond my reach."

"Yes, some people have dreams but don't work hard, and in the end they are all left to blame others.

Remember, it’s useless. No matter who you are jealous of, you can’t change this fact. Because you don’t have the efforts of others. Your laziness depends on your status.” Ye Xiuwen sneered. At this time, Zhang Liang seemed to understand a little, but finally shook his head and said, “Prince, although I think you are right, I still think that if I want to take over the Zijing Pavilion, it will be better than Lielong’s doing.”

"Okay, I will give you a chance to take down the Bauhinia Pavilion, and this Bauhinia Pavilion will belong to you. I want to see if the Ming Kingdom faces a strong enemy again, can you be happy to die for the country like a fiery dragon?

To tell you the truth, I admire Lielong very much because he fought side by side with me, and even though he knew he was defeated, he still tried his best. He broke one of his arm, exhausted his true energy, and finally died under his lava.

So after that, don’t easily say you should surpass others, because maybe you will never have this opportunity again…”

"Prince, I am guilty of my duty."

Before Ye Xiuwen finished speaking, Zhang Liang was already kneeling on the ground.

"Get up, I don't need a verbal insect here. What I need is a general who dares to fight and kill. Take your people down the mountain with me. Tonight, I will seize the Bauhinia Pavilion and drive the fishmen from the East China Sea back to the sea."

"Here!"

Zhang Liang and others obeyed the order, and the army marched at night and drove towards the foot of the mountain. However, when the eight thousand troops acted, they were silent.

Ye Xiuwen was still very satisfied with this. At least the soldiers of Shanhaiguan did not relax, and they advanced and retreated in a proper manner and were in order.

Ye Xiuwen was floating in the air, examining this well-equipped army. He thought to himself that something happened.

Because if he went to the East China Sea, if the fishman makes trouble, it would probably be Yue'er who will be the one who will be on the way.

Yue'er can't escape this because she is the leader of Bi Fang.

So when Ye Xiuwen knew that the fishman had occupied the Zijing Pavilion, he decided to eliminate this hidden danger.

Of course, An Luda is naturally not worth worrying about. Zhezhemu and those fishman masters are the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, Ye Xiuwen has been thinking about this matter, should he go to find the Immortal Island first, or to find Zhuque first.

Zhuque waved him, although he was not a stingy person, but he felt uncomfortable all over when he was stabbed in the back.

So Ye Xiuwen's purpose in going to the East China Sea was two. First, look for the immortal island to solve the problem of the blood curse. Second, find the Zhuque and explain the matter clearly!...
