On this day, Liu Jia and Pang Tong came to Cao Cao's room again.
When Liu Jia saw Cao Cao sitting on the bed, leaning against a pillow and holding a stack of bamboo slips, he smiled and asked, "King Wei, are you feeling better?"
Cao Cao was speechless for a long time, and after a while he said in a calm voice: "What good can a dying person do?" While speaking, he looked at the quilt in front of him.
Just as Liu Jia was about to speak, Cao Cao turned to look at Liu Jia and said, "Is Zhong Kang leading his troops here? Does the King of Shu want me to persuade him to submit to you?"
Liu Jia felt happy and said honestly: "That's true. I wonder if King Wei can help. "
Cao Cao said: "I'm afraid I can't do anything about it. I don't want to get involved in this." After saying that, he lay down and turned his back.
Liu Jia didn¡¯t expect that the situation would turn out like this, and looked at Pang Tong a little helplessly. Pang Tong made a calm gesture with his eyes, and then said to Cao Cao, who had his back turned to them: "I wonder if King Wei believes in God's will?"
Cao Cao didn¡¯t say a word.
Pang Tong continued: "As the saying goes, it is hard to disobey God's will. If you believe in God's will, does the King of Wei now think that I, the King of Shu, are the only master who can control Zhaomin?"
Hearing such rebellious language, Cao Cao suddenly opened the quilt with force and was about to turn over, but he still didn't move. Instead, he covered himself with the quilt again: "Yes, someone else, Sun Quan, has already proclaimed himself emperor, so why are they surprised when they say that?" What about? Besides, haven¡¯t you had this idea in your heart a long time ago? If Liu Jia¡¯s hundreds of thousands of troops are eliminated this time, won¡¯t we still have to follow the path of our dreams? "
At this time, Pang Tong was still saying: "We, the king of Shu, with a weak crown and more than 10,000 soldiers, have been invincible in every battle since our debut. We defeated the Nanbarbarians, burned Wulin, captured Jingzhou, and drove Zhanglu away. Now we have achieved such a huge and unimaginable victory." . Could it be that God has eyes?"
Cao Cao hummed: "I never believe in ghosts and gods."
"If you don't believe in ghosts and gods, or God's will, then it depends on the situation. The King of Wei is a smart man and should be aware of the current situation. Your hundreds of thousands of troops were wiped out by our King of Shu, so there is no big force in the Central Plains and the north to stop us from advancing. , even if there are a few unconscious people, they will fall apart in front of my powerful Shu soldiers. According to the current situation, it is just around the corner to pacify the Central Plains, except for Sun Quan who is stationed in Yangzhou. Looking at the world, there is no me now The king of Shu is the enemy of the unity of the land. The reunification of the world within a year is by no means a lie, let alone an empty talk. What does King Wei think?" Pang Tong said.
King Wei was speechless.
Pang Tong said: "Heroes follow the trend. Those who follow the trend will remain famous throughout the ages, and those who go against the trend will be ruined. The King of Wei is a sensible person, so he should know how to choose. In fact, put aside these and just talk about personal relationships. The King of Wei should also Those loyal men under your command should think about it. Continuing to resist will only lead to casualties. General Xu leads 60,000 exhausted troops to stand at the foot of the city. Not to mention the unnecessary casualties caused by the futile attack on the city, it is their own camp here. Countless soldiers freeze to death and starve to death every day in the freezing cold weather. Even an ordinary soldier knows that it will not take more than three hours for our army to go out of the city to destroy these 60,000 frightened and weak soldiers. But they are all A passionate man, I, the King of Shu, cannot bear the unnecessary deaths and injuries on both sides. Destroying tens of thousands of poor families. What do you think, King Wei?"
Cao Cao said loudly with a deep voice: "It is absolutely impossible for me to surrender to your master, the King of Shu."
Pang Tong said: "Why does the King of Wei surrender to the King of Shu?"
Not only did Cao Cao turn around and look at Pang Tong with some disbelief, but Liu Jia beside him also looked at him in confusion. However, Cao Cao quickly understood what Pang Tong meant, and his eyes became even darker.
Pang Tong said: "I, the King of Shu, just hope that there will be no more melees within the Han Dynasty. The King of Wei is a hero and a hero. He must be able to take it up and let it go. It was natural for the King of Wei to send troops when the city of Wei Mi was not broken, but now It is even better to let go. The world is filled with virtuous people. King Chenliu and Liu Xie were made king by the Han thief Dong Zhuo. However, for many years, many countries fell apart and wars continued, making it impossible to leave the palace. Although there were various reasons, Liu Xie was unable to change The current situation is a fact. Now that the people in Shu are happy and prosperous, the people are rich and the army is strong, and the King of Shu is the true descendant of the royal family, it is an inevitable fact that tens of millions of people support my Lord in the Nine Five-Year Plan. Pang wants to persuade the King of Wei What I want is to continue to be loyal to the Han Dynasty, support Mingjun, and create a powerful new Han Dynasty under the leadership of our Lord. The world is still the Liu family's world, but the people are lucky and the country is lucky."
Liu Jia quickly expressed his position: "Jia sincerely asks King Wei to help."
Cao Cao sighed and said: "The Han Dynasty, that's all. This is your Liu family's family matter. Let me leave the city."
 Liu Jia was stunned. Pang Tong quickly said: "The king of Wei is in good health"
Cao Cao stood up and said, "It's good to take a breath."
Liu Jia quickly said to the outside world: "Prepare the car!"
Outside the city, Xu Chu was about to attack the city when he suddenly found that the suspension bridge was slowly being lowered. Then the city gate opened to both sides.
Cao Bing quickly stopped advancing, tens of thousands of eyes staring at the city gate. Xu Chu shouted loudly: "Array!"
But I saw a large carriage slowly leaving the city, pulled by four strong horses. The gate of the city was quiet except for a soldier driving the car, who was shouting softly. Behind the carriage is a general on horseback but without weapons, and there is no one behind him.
As soon as the car was about to leave the city, Cao's soldiers were surprised and asked each other, wondering what the other party was doing.
Suddenly a soldier said: "General Cao Hong!"
In fact, when the soldier exclaimed, Xu Chu had already seen clearly who the general riding behind the car was. But Xu Chu didn't speak or move. He vaguely knew something in his heart.
The carriage crossed the suspension bridge and headed directly towards Xu Chu's location. Xu Chu still didn't move, but Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren had already rushed to Xu Chu's side on horseback. They looked at the carriage together without looking at Cao Hong behind the carriage.
The car stopped slowly in front of the three generals, the car curtain was slowly opened, and an old voice floated out of the car: "General Xu¡ª¡ª"
"King Wei!" Xu Chu was shocked, quickly rolled off his saddle and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren hurriedly dismounted and knelt on the ground, shouting: "King Wei!"
The other soldiers spread out like a gust of wind, with the carriage as the center, and gradually knelt down. Shouts of "King Wei!" came one after another, and the emotional ones burst into tears.
Cao Cao stretched out his bandaged head from the car window and said in a louder voice: "General Xu, please get up, everyone, please get up!"
Xu Chu cried loudly: "King Wei, the last general deserves death. Damn it! Damn it!" As he said this, he kowtowed, his head banging on the ice, and tears welled up from his eyes.
The other generals also kept saying that they deserved to die.
Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said: "It's not the general's fault, it's my incompetence. Get up, get up, it's my incompetence, it's my incompetence." As he spoke, tears flowed out involuntarily.
There was a burst of crying outside the city.
"King Wei, shall we fight in?" Xu Chu raised his head and asked with red eyes.
Cao Cao shook his head slightly, looking at the gray sky in the distance, and seemed to be talking to himself: "Maybe it's really God's will -"
"King Wei, we still have hundreds of thousands of troops and the land of Jiuzhou. We can definitely fight with them again. It's not certain who will win!" Xia Houyuan raised his head and said loudly.
At this time, Cao Cao whispered to the driver in front: "Go back to the city!"
