Three against one!
Chen Gong and his two bodyguards versus Li Mu.
Just as Chen Gong was distracted, the sound of a machine suddenly rang out.
With two screams, Chen Gong's two bodyguards fell to the ground.
"Now, it's a one-on-one."
Li Mu casually removed the quiver hidden in his sleeve.
Sleeve arrows, effective killing radius of 30 meters.
It can be used in hand-to-hand combat in the army, and can also be used by rangers and escorts for self-defense.
Although there was a sense of derogatory meaning in stabbing someone in the back.
However, this was a chaotic world, and survival was the only standard.
Han Hao had once told Chen Gong that all strategists had dirty hearts.
A counselor like Li Mu was a real heart!
Without any warning, the sleeve arrows killed two of Chen Gong's guards.
Fast, accurate, and ruthless!
Chen Gong did not react at all.
If Li Mu had aimed at Chen Gong, Chen Gong would be dead by now!
"Bastard!"
Chen Gong was furious. This was the first time he felt so close to death.
Chen Gong, who had always thought highly of himself, was often proud of his eloquence.
After persuading Zhang Miao to rebel against Cao, Chen Gong had managed to instigate the rebellion of most of the counties in Yanzhou within a month.
But now, his eloquence was useless in front of Li Mu.
Outside the courtyard, the shouting and killing gradually weakened.
Without a commander, Chen Gong's personal guards were no match for Han Hao!
The air was filled with the thick smell of blood.
Not long after.
Han Hao pushed open the courtyard door and reported to Li Mu,""Sir, I didn't fail you! One hundred and twenty rebel soldiers were killed, thirty were captured, and sixteen Puyang officials and their servants who responded to the rebellion were captured and killed!”
Hearing Han Hao's report, Chen Gong's face suddenly turned pale. He staggered a few steps and almost fainted.
He was defeated!
It was still a complete defeat!
"Chen Gongtai, just now you asked me to state my conditions. Now, what do you think I should state?”Li Mu waved his folding fan elegantly. He didn't change his mood at all when he heard Han Hao's report, as if he had already expected the result.
Chen Gong's heart turned ashen as he tried his best to maintain his last shred of dignity.""If you want to kill me or cut me up, do as you please. Chen Gong swears to the death that he will not surrender!”
"Facing death unflinchingly, what a spirit!" "Killing you is as easy as crushing a bug," praised Li Mu lightly.”
"But unfortunately, I have no interest in crushing insects.”
"You can leave. There are still fifty of your personal guards at the city gate. They are enough to ensure that you won't die from the robbery.”
" Li Mu!" Chen Gong's eyes widened." If you want to kill me, just kill me. Why do you have to humiliate me?!"”
"Humiliate you? Are you worthy?" Li Mu smiled contemptuously.
"Li Mu, you're too arrogant!" Chen Gong was furious. Today, I, Chen Gong, fell into your trap. I admit defeat!”
"But if you dare to let me go, aren't you afraid that I will lead my troops to attack Pu Yang?”
"Pu Yang, you can't hold on!"
Li Mu laughed." Chen Gongtai, there's no need to provoke me. If you want to get information, why go through so much trouble?"”
"You think that I can't defend Pu Yang, but do you know how many spies I have planted in Pu Yang all these years?”
"Do you know how many private soldiers I have trained, how much armor I have hidden, and how much food I have stockpiled?”
"You don't know anything. You don't even understand why Jin Wen immediately defected to me the moment he saw me.”
"Puyang, a battleground for the militarists."
"You know, but don't you think I know?”
"If you're not convinced, feel free to bring your troops over. But next time, I won't mind crushing an insect that doesn't know how to advance or retreat.”
Contempt!
Condescending contempt!
Chen Gong was so angry that his nails dug into his palms. The pain kept him rational.
As long as the green hills were there, there was no need to worry about not having firewood to burn.
"Li Mu, you will pay the price for your arrogance today.”Chen Gong gritted his teeth.
Li Mu waved his hand as if he had lost interest in Chen Gong."General Han, escort Chen Gongtai out of the city!”
Chen Gong snorted coldly, threw his sword aside, and turned around.
Today's humiliation would be returned tenfold in the future!
Seeing Li Mu release Chen Gong out of the city, Jin Wen couldn't help but ask,""Magistrate, why not imprison Chen Gong to intimidate Zhang Miao and Lu Bu? I don't understand!"
"Who's easier to deal with, Magistrate Jin, Chen Gong, or Lu Bu?" Li Mu chuckled.”
Jin Wen pondered for a moment. Lu Bu is a brave man. Naturally, Lu Bu is easier to deal with."
"Very good!" Li Mu gently tapped Jin Wen with his folding fan and encouraged,""When Lu Bu attacks, go out of the city to fight him and kill him to intimidate the enemy.”
Kill Lu Bu?
If I can kill Lu Bu, why should I be a county magistrate?
Jin Wen cried." Magistrate, I'm a civil official. Puyang City doesn't have enough soldiers.”
"You also know that you are a civil official, but Puyang does not have enough soldiers?”Li Mu snorted." Although Chen Gong is resourceful, he's not a general who fights and kills. His reflexes are too poor." My slight attack is his limit.”
"Capturing Chen Gong is as easy as flipping my hand."
"But Lu Bu is different. He comes from Bing Province and is famous for his battles. Even if Lu Bu falls into a trap like today, he can still kill me.”
"But Lu Bu is still a guest general!"
"Lu Bu is a guest general and has ambitions. He won't listen to Chen Gong."”
"Similarly, Chen Gong will not really acknowledge Lu Bu as his master and allow him to turn the tables.”
"So, the county magistrate is deliberately insulting Chen Gong with words, angering Chen Gong's heart so that he can't calmly plan!”
"At that time, there will be a chance to drive a wedge between Lu Bu and Chen Gong!”
Li Mu was not stingy with his praise." County Magistrate Jin, the Lord has set his sights on the world. Yanzhou is not the only place."”
"Do your job well. With your intelligence, it's not impossible for you to become a Prefecture Overseer in the future.”
Jin Wen was overjoyed. He humbly said," I dare not ask for anything. I'm only willing to obey the orders of the county magistrate!"”
"It's good that you understand!" After knocking Jin Wen down, Li Mu ordered,""Inform the wealthy Tian Ci to come to the Clear Spring Villa tomorrow morning.”
