    Guo Jiadao: "Well, the old general is both wise and brave, and this method is simpler and more practical than my strategy. I am willing to lose."

    "Haha, don't underestimate anyone in our army. Quickness brings wisdom. Everyone is a good strategist. Just in case, you will also use countermeasures. In this case, Liu Bei will definitely believe it."

    "No! I will send people to spread rumors right now."

    On the same day, Guo Jia asked the staff of the Intelligence Department lurking in Xiangyang City to spread rumors that Huang Zhong had released Yan Yan today. In fact, Yan Yan had long wanted to surrender.  For a time, rumors spread everywhere, and soon reached Liu Bei's ears.

    "Your Majesty, it's not good. Now there is a commotion in the city. They say that the general's defeat today was intentional and that he wanted to surrender to the Chinese army" Jian Yong ran over from outside and shouted as soon as he entered the hall.

    After Liu Bei heard this, he frowned and said, "Where did you hear this?"

    "Everyone in the city knows it!"

    "This must be a rumor from the Chinese Army. They want to drive a wedge between Your Majesty and the General, and then ask Your Majesty to kill the General. This is a plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife." Yi Ji stood beside him and said hurriedly.

    "Your Majesty, the rumors are not credible. Your Majesty treats the general well, and the general will never betray your majesty." Sun Qian also hurriedly advised.

    "I think so too." Mi Zhu echoed.

    Liu Bei nodded and said: "I understand, you all go down and let Yan Yan and Huang Zhong fight again tomorrow. We will know after watching their battle."

    "No!"

    After everyone left, Liu Bei felt uncomfortable because even Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tian Yu, Zhuge Liang, and He Xia had abandoned him. Would Yan Yan really not abandon him?

    After thinking for a moment, Liu Bei called someone in and asked him to serve as a supervisor in Yan Yan's army.  And issued a secret order.

    Early the next morning, Huang Zhong led five hundred cavalry to Yan Yan's camp to challenge him again. This time.  Lin Nan, Liu Bei and others were waiting there early, looking around.

    Today Yan Yan is wearing a horse.  Wearing a chain armor, he looks particularly energetic

    "Huang Zhong, I lost to you yesterday, today I will definitely kill you, just let your horse come over!" Under the attention of everyone, the stern-faced Luma, holding a Feilian machete, shouted loudly.  Then he stood there majestically.

    Huang Zhongdao: "In this case, I won't be polite to you."

    As soon as the two people finished speaking, they rode out at the same time, and the two people immediately started fighting together, looking away with their swords, you come and I go.

    The Yan Yan of today is no longer the Yan Yan of yesterday, and Huang Zhong can relate to it the most, because Yan Yan's sword skills are particularly fierce today, and it seems that he is fighting Huang Zhong with the determination to die.  Since you are not afraid of death anymore.  Therefore, Yan Yan only uses his killing moves to make up for his deficiencies in defense with offense.

    After a quick attack, Yan Yan actually had the upper hand.  Huang Zhong was also surprised.  This Yan Yan is completely different from yesterday. The speed and angle of the sword are very sharp. It seems that he has studied his sword skills for a long time, and the changed fighting skills have forced him to be unable to use the Nine Phoenix Chaoyang Sword.

    Five rounds later, Huang Zhong suddenly shouted loudly and swung the Jiufeng Chaoyang Saber forward, slashing it in the air and falling towards Yan Yan's head.

    Yan Yan was shocked.  He hurriedly raised his sword to cover himself, but he didn't know that Huang Zhong's sword was a false move.  The knife head suddenly changed direction and actually swept over with the handle.  It happened to be where Yan Yan was defenseless.

    "boom!"

    With a muffled sound, Huang Zhong swept Yan Yan off his horse, and Yan Yan also grabbed Huang Zhong's knife handle tightly in the sudden change. Using the strength of his body's fall, he pulled hard and pulled Huang Zhong down with him.  They got off their horses and fell to the snow one after the other.

    Yan Yan looked at Huang Zhong with a keen eye. The two of them stood up from the ground with their palms almost at the same time, then raised the big swords in their hands and continued to fight.

    On Xiangyang City, Liu Bei¡¯s blood surged when he saw it, and he shouted: ¡°This is my general!¡±

    On the other side, Lin Nan showed a faint smile and said, "Huang Zhong did this on purpose. It's really hard on him."

    Huang Zhong and Yan Yan were fighting on the ground. There were no horses, so they were competing on their sword skills. Huang Zhong's Jiufeng Chaoyang Sword's sword skills were extremely clever. Once he used a series of moves, he immediately launched them.  , the dancing tigers are blown by the wind, and snow is flying on the surrounding snow.

    Yan Yan did not show any weakness, and spent the whole night thinking about the moves to deal with Huang Zhong's sword skills. After seeing Huang Zhong use them, he immediately took advantage of the opportunities and prescribed the right medicine. Although it looked chaotic, it was a clever move to resolve Huang Zhong's sword skills.  Huang Zhong was also annoyed because the previous ten moves were unable to hurt Yan Yan.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??It is precisely because of this that Huang Zhong admires Yan Yan.  As the saying goes, Jiang is the hottest one, and Yan Yan is the hottest one, because so far, the only person who can figure out how to break his Nine Phoenix Chaoyang Sword is Yan Yan.

    Lin Nan was watching the battle and originally thought it would be a battle without any suspense, but Yan Yan's sudden display of power made the battle full of variables.  Because, he saw that Huang Zhong was not pretending, but was really made unable to do anything by Yan Yan.  As a result, he couldn't help but start to worry about Huang Zhong.

    However, there is still a gap, although it is not obvious.  When Huang Zhong finished dancing the first nine moves and started to dance the tenth move, something suddenly happened to Yan Yan's moves, and he was no longer able to resist Huang Zhong.  The reason is very simple, that is, Yan Yan saw the nine moves that Huang Zhong used yesterday, so he reflected the nine moves of Huang Zhong in his mind, and after thinking hard all night, he came up with the solution to neutralize the nine moves of Huang Zhong.  method.

    "However, the next move that Huang Zhong used now seemed familiar to him, but he couldn't figure it out at all. He was at a loss and was at a disadvantage again. He could only dodge and block, but could not fight back.

    Liu Bei and others watched on the city wall. Seeing that Yan Yan was at a disadvantage again, they couldn't help but feel discouraged.

    At this time, Huang Zhong's sword skills danced faster and faster. Onlookers could only see bursts of sword light and the light refracted in the sun. Wherever the blade passed, snow was flying on the ground, and the set of Nine Phoenixes  The Chaoyang Sword also made Huang Zhong dance superbly.

    Even the five hundred cavalrymen behind Huang Zhong felt the sword spirit and couldn't help but start cheering for their general, while the Han army behind Yan Yan also began to shout.  For a while.  There were bursts of shouts, and the shouts of the two armies came and went, which showed the excitement of this battle.

    "I underestimated his strength too much. If this continues, I'm afraid he will die" Yan Yan was forced to do nothing by Huang Zhong.  I thought to myself.

    Suddenly, Huang Zhong's foot slipped and he stumbled and fell to the ground. He landed on his back and fell on all fours. Even the Nine Phoenix Chaoyang Sword in his hand was thrown out.

    When Liu Bei saw this scene, he was extremely excited and immediately shouted: "We haven't done anything yet. When will we wait?"

    After Yan Yan heard this, he jumped up, raised his Feilian machete and struck Huang Zhong on the head.

    After Lin Nan saw it, he couldn't help but frowned and thought to himself: "Old General, you are gambling with your life. If that knife falls, you will really be dead"

    The officers and soldiers of the Chinese army who were watching the battle all sighed and cursed Yan Yan for taking advantage of others' danger, while Huang Zhong seemed to have fallen to his waist.  He struggled hard but couldn't get up, and the hand that took out the sword from his waist clap slowly.

    But no one noticed.  A faint smile appeared on the corner of Huang Zhong's mouth. It disappeared so quickly that no one could find any trace of it.

    Seeing that Fei Lian's machete was about to land on Huang Zhong's head, Sen Han's blade suddenly stopped, just a few centimeters above Huang Zhong's helmet, and suddenly withdrew the blade.

    "Yesterday you didn't kill me, and I won't kill you today. The two of us are even, so you can go back. Let's have a life-or-death battle tomorrow!"

    After saying this, Yan Yan stood the Feilian machete on the ground.  He took a few steps back.

    When Liu Bei saw such a scene, his lungs were about to explode.  On the battlefield, life and death mattered. He was about to kill Huang Zhong, but Yan Yan suddenly sheathed the knife.  With a gloomy face, he suddenly slapped his hand on the battlement, but the battlement was too hard and did not move at all. Instead, it made his hand hurt.  He pointed angrily at Yan Yan and cursed loudly: "Mother Xipi! What do I want from you? Kill without mercy!"

    A furious roar resounded throughout the world, especially the last four words, the shouting was even louder, and in conjunction with the movements of his hands, an arrow was seen flying from behind Yan Yan, heading towards Yan Yan quickly.  Yan's vest was shot.

    Before Huang Zhong could get up, he saw someone shooting a cold arrow from behind Yan Yan. He quickly stood up and kicked Yan Yan away. The feather arrow passed between Yan Yan and him and hit the ground directly.  Submerged in the snow.

    "Yan Yan is treasonous and collaborating with the enemy, you will kill him without mercy!" Liu Bei saw Huang Zhong taking the initiative to save Yan Yan, and thought of yesterday's rumors, and became even more convinced that Yan Yan had rebelled against him, and immediately roared.

    So, the man who was sent to Yan Yan's army yesterday by Liu Bei to supervise the army immediately asked the prepared crossbowmen to start shooting fiercely at Yan Yan.

    When Huang Zhong saw this, he turned over and threw Yan Yan to the ground. However, he was still hit by an arrow in his left arm and blood was flowing out.

    Since Liu Bei was furious, Yan Yan decided to die to apologize, but she didn't expect that Huang Zhong would save her, and Qi Qi was willing to get hurt for herself.  He was completely confused. His loyaltyRighteousness, is this all you get in exchange?

    Suddenly, he saw another cluster of arrows shooting towards Huang Zhong's back. He shouted to be careful, and at the same time hugged Huang Zhong tightly and began to roll completely on the snow. He dodged most of the arrows, but the arrows on his back  But he was still hit by two arrows.

    The two veterans cherished each other and rescued each other. Unknowingly, they formed a posthumous friendship that transcended ordinary people. As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed, and that's probably nothing more than that.

    At this time, Zhang Liao, the Huya General of the Huaxia Kingdom, had already ridden out with a group of heavily armored cavalry and stood in front of Huang Zhong and Yan Yan. They were fully armed to the teeth. At the same time, Wen Wen  Pin and Zhang Qian fought out from the left and right wings. They were also heavily armed heavy cavalry. With vigorous steps, they began to attack the Han army's camp outside Xiangyang City.

    At almost the same time, Li Dian, Le Jin, Zhu Ling, Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang, Xian Yufu, Tian Chou and other generals launched attacks on the other three gates of Xiangyang City at the same time. The catapults launched each one as big as a watermelon.  The black ball was thrown into the high air, and at the same time, there were sparks on the black ball. All those black, sparky objects were flying in the sky. When they touched the wall of Xiangyang City, they emitted  There was an earth-shattering "boom" sound, stone chips flew everywhere on the city wall, a big hole immediately appeared on the city wall, and the soldiers were blown away by the huge impact.

    For a time, the entire city wall of Xiangyang City was shaking, and the soldiers faced the huge power brought by the black fission.  They were all stunned, how could such a big thing be so powerful.

    Trembling!  Shocking!

    The soldiers of the Han army kept hearing deafening explosions.  The sound of "bang" kept ringing, and the Chinese army's siege troops had not yet rushed to the city wall.  The Han troops standing on the city wall had been blown to pieces and their flesh and blood were blurred. The soldiers guarding the city also dispersed and got off the tower one after another, not daring to get close.

    ¡°Dong dong dong¡­¡±

    A burst of rapid war drums beat completely, and countless Chinese soldiers rushed out from behind the outer ice wall that completely surrounded Xiangyang City. Everyone was in high spirits.  Extremely excited, he rushed forward carrying the ladder.

    At the same time, under the blue sky and white clouds, above Xiangyang City, things like big birds stretched out their wings and hovered in the air. Hundreds of delta wings were flying in the air by human pilots.

    "Peoplepeople who can fly" Among the people in Xiangyang City, a child pointed at the delta wing that was spiraling and descending in the sky and said in surprise.

    The Huaxia Army launched a general attack on Xiangyang City. This was planned by Lin Nan early in the morning. Let Huang Zhong and Yan Yan fight, just to attract the attention of the two armies.  This caused people to focus all their attention on Huang Zhong and Yan Yan, thus ignoring the defense of the other three city gates.

    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

    The sound of explosions continued for only a moment.  The sky above Xiangyang City was filled with gunpowder smoke, and everywhere was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder and blood.

    At the same time, the Chinese Air Force officially made its debut. Three thousand soldiers who had trained hard for five years to control the delta wing continuously circled down from the sky. Finally, they landed in Xiangyang City one after another, completing the invasion of Xiangyang.  The first process of the city.

    As soon as the air force soldiers landed, they quickly gathered together, took off their shields from their backs and held repeating crossbows.  He began to shoot at the Han soldiers who came to resist in the city.  The soldiers still hovering in the air launched attacks on the ground from the air, hanging upside down with golden hooks.  Standing down from a high position, he used his repeating crossbow to shoot at the defenders in the city.

    How could the Han army have seen such a scene?  I originally thought they were just a group of big birds, but it wasn't until the Chinese air force soldiers approached that I realized they were humans, and that they were capable of attacking. By the time they reacted and attacked, it was already too late.

    Catapults outside the city continued to hurl catapults carefully developed by the Huaxia Kingdom at Xiangyang City. They exploded the city gates and demolished the city walls with infinite power, causing some soldiers to skip the engineering process and rush directly into the city.

    The Han army was completely caught off guard by the overwhelming Chinese army. The morale in the city was low and people were panicked. They were vulnerable to the Chinese soldiers who fought bravely to kill the enemy. In order to seek a chance to survive, everyone surrendered one after another.

    In a short time, chaos broke out in Xiangyang City. The people all returned home and stayed behind closed doors. The streets and alleys of Xiangyang City were full of shadows of soldiers. Some soldiers who were unwilling to surrender resisted and were finally invaded.  All the Chinese troops in the city were slaughtered.

    The Chinese army cooperated with the outside and quickly occupied the north gate. Then the Chinese soldiers, as dense as ants, quickly poured into the city from the north gate, divided into three, and went towards the south gate, west gate, and east gate respectively.

    Outside the city, Zhang Liao, Wenpin, and Zhang Qian led Tiefutu and swept across the battlefield with an invincible force.As soon as the iron pagoda came out, the enemy quickly broke through the first line of defense where the Han army set up camp outside the city. As soon as the defense line collapsed, the Han army collapsed in an instant, losing the soldiers commanded by the general and scurrying around.  The iron pagoda gave them a huge psychological shock.

    Liu Bei stood on the tower of the east gate, with the sound of explosions ringing in his ears. In front of him, the Tiefutu had broken through the camp outside the city, and many places in the city were occupied. He suddenly felt that this was a great irony, hahaha.  After laughing a few times, he saw that all the soldiers around him were frightened. He immediately drew out his double swords and killed two soldiers immediately. He looked at Lin Nan in the distance angrily and shouted: "Lin Zinan! I am here, come here."  Kill mehahaha"

    Lin Nan stood at the highest point and kept watching the entire battle with a telescope. He saw that the north gate, south gate, and west gate of Xiangyang City had all been decorated with Chinese army flags. All the air forces hovering in the sky had also landed, and Xiangyang City  The outer perimeter has also become dilapidated. Except for a few people emitting black smoke, everything in the city is fine.  He laughed. This is the true strength of the Chinese army. Less than half an hour after the siege, victory was declared. The only thing left was Liu Bei's Han army at the east gate. In the camp outside the city, the Han army was on the iron side.  Even with Futu's advantage, everyone surrendered.

    Lin Nan smiled.  He was in a good mood and hurriedly said: "In the city, let Li Dian and Le Jin lead the troops to attack the east gate. Block the gate of Wengcheng. Except for Liu Bei, kill everyone else without mercy. Let Zhang Liao and a group of infantry block the east gate.  At the gate of the city, stop all catapults from shooting, and then order Xian Yufu, Tian Chou, Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang, and Zhu Ling to control all confidential places in the city. Anyone who dares to touch the people will be punished by military law. "

    "No!"

    "Fengxiao, let's go see General Huang and General Yan."

    "No!"

    After speaking, Lin Nan took Guo Jia with him.  He and a few guards went down the stairs, and when they reached the flat ground, they went straight to Huang Zhong's camp.

    At this time, Hua Tuo, the originator of surgery with the army, had already treated Huang Zhong and Yan Yan's arrow wounds and bandaged them.

    When Lin Nan and Guo Jia arrived, they only saw Yan Yan lying on the couch and fell asleep, but Huang Zhong was nowhere to be found.  Lin Nan hurriedly called the soldiers guarding the camp and asked, "Where is the general?"

    "Your Majesty, the general has led his troops into battle to kill the enemy."

    "Old General Huang is a really brave general. He could not get out of the line of fire even though he was slightly injured, which is really admirable."

    After saying that, Lin Nan and Guo Jia left.  He asked someone to take good care of Yan Yan, mounted his horse, and arrived at the gate of Xiangyang City.

    At this time, Liu Bei and others, who were blocked in a corner of the east gate, had no way to go and were surrounded by Chinese soldiers.  Moreover, many Han soldiers could not bear the pressure in their hearts and began to surrender in the face of hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers.

    Lin Nan came to the east gate city and saw Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao and others together.  The bandage on Huang Zhong's left arm was soaked with blood, so he hurriedly asked: "Old General, your injury"

    "Your Majesty, I'm only fifty. I'm not old. With this body, I can fight for the Emperor for another twenty years. Don't call me an old general again." Huang Zhong said, patting his chest.

    Lin Nan said: "General Huang has worked hard and achieved great results. The overall situation has been decided at this time. General Huang should go and change the dressing. Looking at your situation, it seems that the wound has burst."

    Huang Zhong insisted not to leave the battlefield, but could not withstand Lin Nan's persuasion, so he left the battlefield under the leadership of his personal followers.

    At this time, there were fewer and fewer people around Liu Bei, and most of the soldiers abandoned Liu Bei. Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, and Yi Ji surrounded Liu Bei. They were not afraid at all, but were more fearful than those soldiers.  Seems more brave.

    A true warrior should not be afraid of death. The four scribes behind Liu Bei did this. However, some soldiers who claim to be fearless cannot do this. There is still a huge gap between people.

    "Liu Xuande! Now that the situation is over, we have reached this juncture. Put down your weapons quickly and come to me to surrender. I will not make things difficult for you." Lin Nan looked at Liu Bei on the tower and shouted loudly.

    "You thief! I am the emperor of the Han Dynasty, how can I surrender a rebellious minister like you?" Liu Xuande also knew that the situation was over, but now the only thing he had was this dignity, nothing more.

    "It doesn't matter whether you surrender or not. Now that the Han Dynasty is exhausted, even if I let you go, you won't be able to make any big waves. Why don't you offer your land and surrender? I can still make you a  No need to worry about food or drink.¡±

    "Hahaha I am the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and I am the legitimate and orthodox emperor. You are all rebellious officials and traitors, and everyone can punish them! You can kill or behead them all as you please, and stop talking nonsense to me!" Liu Beining  He refuses to surrender, but there is a sense of righteousness in his bones.

    "Big Han? Big Han has died long ago,"Even if I don't come to attack you, even if I give you another hundred and eighty years, you may not be able to shake the status of my country, China.  On the contrary, this time my army went to the south of the Yangtze River to complete the great cause of unification.  If you don't surrender, I won't make it difficult for you. Let me ask the four ministers behind you if they are willing to surrender. Our country, China, is open to all rivers. As long as you surrender sincerely, there will be prospects for your development.  "

    "We would rather die than surrender!" the four ministers Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu and Yi Ji said in unison.

    Just as Lin Nan was talking to Liu Bei, more Han troops left Liu Bei. After a while, only Liu Bei, Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, and Yi Ji were left on the entire east gate, looking at Manchu  There were soldiers from the Huaxia Kingdom all over the place. I'm afraid Liu Bei had never dreamed of such a scene.

    Liu Bei thought that even if he could not get the loyalty of everyone, he would at least get half of it. However, as of today, he has only gained the loyalty of four people. It is really pitiful and pathetic.

    "Hahahaha" Liu Bei laughed loudly, holding a double sword in his hand and placing it directly on his neck, preparing to kill himself.

    "Your Majesty! I'll go first!" Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, and Yi Ji drew their swords at the same time, said in unison, and then wiped their necks.  Blood spurted out and splashed on Liu Bei's body.

    Liu Bei couldn't help but shed tears when he saw his four beloved ladies leaving him like this.  I don't know whether he was moved by the foolish loyalty of these four ministers, or whether he was saddened by his own fate.

    Just when Liu Bei wanted to wipe his neck.  Lin Nan shot an arrow, directly hitting Liu Bei's right arm, causing Liu Bei's hands holding the double swords to fall off naturally. At this time, Li Dian and Le Jin, who had already been slowly approaching Liu Bei, directly  He pushed Liu Bei to the ground, tied him up, and stuffed something in his mouth.  To prevent Liu Bei from committing suicide.

    Soon, Li Dian and Le Jin escorted Liu Bei down the tower and came to Lin Nan's side.

    Lin Nan turned over and dismounted. Seeing Liu Bei's fate, he said: "You and I are brothers after all, and I can't bear to kill you. If you had followed me back then, you would have been made a marquis and prime minister. How could you have ended up like this? Today, the situation is over.  , I will let you go back. Whether you stay anonymous or find another place, I don¡¯t want to see you again. "

    Liu Bei's eyes were full of doubts.  But Zhang Liao, Wenpin, Li Dian, Yue Jin and others were all shocked after hearing this. Why did Lin Nan let Liu Bei go again?

    Everyone hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged: "Your Majesty, Liu Bei cannot be let go. Letting him go would be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain. What if"

    "That's enough! I am the emperor, and what I say is the imperial edict. No one is allowed to disobey it." Lin Nan said angrily.

    Afterwards, Lin Nan asked someone to bring Lu Ma over.  Let everyone move out of the way and loosen Liu Bei's grip a little.  Lu Ma then let Liu Bei leave.

    Lin Nan watched Liu Bei walk away and said secretly: "If I really kill Liu Bei, I'm afraid Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will never follow me in this life. Liu Bei has completely lost the foundation of his rise. Even if he is let go, he will not be able to follow me."  Just one person."

    A.D. 196, the sixth year of the Chinese Kingdom of China, it was sunny on the third day of the twelfth lunar month in winter.

    On this day, the Chinese Emperor Shenzhou personally led an army of 200,000 to capture Xiangyang, the capital of Jinghan, and the Jinghan Kingdom was destroyed.

    It was also on this day that news came that Cao Wei had captured Chengdu, the capital of the Shu-Han Kingdom seven days ago. The Shu-Han Kingdom was destroyed, and the world was divided into three. This officially ended the era of feudal feudal lords in the late Han Dynasty, and a new round of competition also started among the Three Kingdoms.  The period officially kicked off

    Changsha.

    Sun Ce and Zhou Yu stood on the tower of Changsha City, looking at the Han troops scattered all over the mountains and plains outside the city, feeling uncomfortable psychologically.

    Wu Jun went south, trying to protect the four counties of Jingnan before Zhuge Liang, but unfortunately it was a step too late. If they hadn't acted quickly, they might not even have protected Changsha.

    The storm was about to come. Just a few days ago, a battle broke out in Wuling against the Wu army. I don¡¯t know where the Wuxi barbarians appeared from. They suddenly began to besiege the prefect¡¯s mansion. The Wu army was caught off guard, and the barbarians again  Due to the overwhelming number of people, the prefect was finally forced to withdraw from Wuling and returned defeated.

    In the following days, similar situations occurred in Lingling and Guiyang. The Wu army was suddenly attacked by barbarians, suffered heavy losses, and was forced to retreat. The troops from the three counties retreated to Changsha City, while Sun Ce and Zhou Yu  The army also arrived at Changsha City, and encountered a rebellion by the barbarians in Changsha City. After joint suppression, Changsha City finally did not fall.

    However, the very next day, 80,000 Han troops and 30,000 Wuxi barbarian troops led by Zhuge Liang surrounded Changsha City, making the Wu army feel a little afraid of Zhuge Liang.

    "Gong Jin, didn't Zhuge Liang want to surrender to the Chinese army? Why did he not surrender in Jiangling and run away?"Come and compete with us for the four counties in Jingnan?  "Sun Ce looked at the Han army outside the city and said in confusion.

    Zhou Yu's arrow wound was not a problem, but it was still a bit painful for him who was injured for the first time. Moreover, the wound was left by Zhuge Liang. He saw the word Zhuge flying on the big flag outside the city.  There was a burst of anger in my heart.

    "This is Zhuge Liang's cleverness. There are many talented people in China. If he just surrenders, Lin Nan will definitely not be able to give him any high officials. If he uses the four counties of Jingnan as his entry point, it will be different.  . And he still has soldiers and horses in his hands. As long as he doesn't want to leave the four counties of Jingnan, Lin Nan can't do anything to him, and Zhuge Liang has his own agenda, but we must not do it.  Let him succeed, otherwise our dead soldiers will die in vain," Zhou Yu said angrily.

    "I understand. Gong Jin, what do you think will happen if I recruit Zhuge Liang to surrender?"

    "If Zhuge Liang is really willing to surrender, that would be the best. I am afraid that he will not surrender. Your Majesty, are you planning to recruit Zhuge Liang to surrender?" Zhou Yu asked suspiciously.

    Sun Ce said: "Zhuge Liang is extremely talented, and he is indeed a talent. Moreover, he holds so many soldiers and horses, and the Han Dynasty is in danger. I can also satisfy him what the Huaxia Kingdom can give him. I can even give him more than he can give.  I don¡¯t believe in the even better conditions in China, and I can¡¯t surrender him.¡±

    "What if Zhuge Liang wants to surrender to China?" Zhou Yu asked.

    "Be polite first and then fight. Then don't blame me for being rude. I will go out to fight in person and kill Zhuge Liang. Let him see how powerful I am. Force him to surrender." When Sun Ce said this, there was a cold light in his eyes.

    "Then I'm willing to negotiate with Zhuge Liang!" Zhou Yu said, cupping his fists.

    "No! I will go there in person. This will make it more solemn."

    After saying this, Sun Ce turned around and went downstairs and asked someone to prepare his horse. He was fully clothed and left Changsha City with more than a hundred horsemen. When he was about to arrive at the Han army camp, he sent someone to shout that he wanted to see Zhuge Liang.

    Zhuge Liang was currently in the camp planning how to attack the city.  Surrounded by Sha Mo Ke, Fu Tong, Liao Li, Liu Yan, Xu Jing, Liu Min, Fu Shiren, Fei Guan, Zhang Nan, Feng Xi and other civil and military officials, suddenly came into a small school and said that Sun Ce, the emperor of Wu State, invited Zhuge Liang to join the army.  Narrative.

    "Prime Minister, what tricks is the dog emperor of Wu doing? Is he asking you to reminisce about the past at this time? The prime minister has never met the dog emperor, so how can he reminisce about the past?" Shamoko said immediately.

    The generals also echoed. These people are all Zhuge Jin's old subordinates. They have known Zhuge Liang since they were in Jingnan. However, they have never been reused by Liu Bei in the Han Dynasty. It can only be said that Liu Bei does not have the ability to recognize people.  Especially Liao Li, who once slandered Liu Bei and was thrown into prison by Liu Bei and demoted to a commoner.  Not allowed to be employed for life.  There is also Liu Yan, who has followed Liu Bei for a long time.  When Liu Bei was in Xuzhou, he followed Liu Bei.  However, Liu Bei never regarded him as a talent, but only treated him as a fellow sect member, and would never ask him for advice at any time.  Liu Yan simply didn't care so much. He was free and had no worries about food and drink, and gradually developed laziness.

    Xu Jing is a bit special. He and Xu Shao are brothers, but their relationship has been at odds since childhood. Although Xu Jing is also under Liu Bei's account, he has never met Liu Bei because of Xu Shao's presence.

    Others, such as Fei Guan, Fu Shiren, Liu Min, Feng Xi, Zhang Nan, etc., were all unsuccessful people. They used to be Liu Biao's subordinates. Later, after Liu Bei took over Jingzhou, he thought he could make some achievements, but everything turned out to be nothing.  It's bullshit. I have been in Jingzhou for five years, but I haven't even moved. I am still in the same position.

    It is true to say that Jingzhou is a place of outstanding people and spiritual places. When wars were everywhere, Jingzhou was relatively stable, so it naturally became a place of refuge.  However, with so many talents, only one Bole can discover them.  Ever since Zhuge Liang found out that he had defected to Liu Bei by accident two years ago, he had already made plans. He visited Jingzhou privately and talked with civil and military officials at all levels. With his charisma, he became close friends with them and gradually established his own destiny.  Network base.

    Therefore, as soon as he was re-employed by Liu Bei and gained power, he immediately promoted his connections to officials and nobles, and also mobilized them all under Zhuge Jin's account, letting his brother take charge of them.  It must be said that Zhuge Liang's approach was very popular, so much so that the 100,000 troops in Jiangling City were willing to obey the orders of Brother Zhuge.

    When Zhuge Liang heard that Sun Ce wanted to see him, he chuckled and said, "Don't panic, I have my own plan. Moke, you come with me, and the others will stick to the camp."

    "Prime Minister, Sun Ce is known as the little overlord and has superior military strength. Isn't it too dangerous for the Prime Minister to only take General Sha alone?" Fu Tong said hurriedly.

    "Humph"?You look down on me, Lao Sha, right?  What a little overlord, even if Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, comes, I'm not afraid!  I, Laosha, can kill his mother with this caltrop bone!  "Shamoko said angrily.

    "General Sha, that's not what I meant, but I'm worried about the Prime Minister" Fu Tong explained hurriedly.

    "Don't worry. Sun Ce is here to recruit us and will not have any ill intentions towards us. Besides, with Mo Ke here, Sun Ce will not succeed so easily if he wants to commit murder." Zhuge Liang said.

    So, Zhuge Liang took Samoko out of the camp and arrived at the gate of the camp. From a distance, he saw Sun Ce standing majestically on the ground in the middle, and the followers behind him did not carry weapons.

    Zhuge Liang came forward with Shamoke. After two meetings, Shamoke stared at Sun Ce with eager eyes, but Sun Ce had a kind face. When he saw Zhuge Liang coming, he said: "Prime Minister Zhuge, see you.  It¡¯s so difficult.¡±

    "Haha, actually, it should be said that it is difficult for me to meet your majesty. I wonder what you can learn from your majesty's invitation today?" Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

    "I don't dare to accept advice, but I just want to reminisce about old times with Prime Minister Zhuge." Sun Ce was still kind and looked at Shamoko eagerly, as if he didn't see him.

    Samoko doesn¡¯t care. Although he is not afraid of Sun Ce, the opponent is still outnumbered and he is the only one. If Sun Ce suddenly attacks and assassinates Zhuge Liang, he should protect him.

    Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Your Majesty and I just met for the first time today, so how can we talk about the past?"

    "That's wrong. Soochow and Jinghan are neighboring countries. They have been side by side for several years. They have fought with each other, and both countries have suffered casualties. Over the years, we are all neighbors, so naturally we are old acquaintances." Sun Ce said.

    Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Haha, your Majesty is not here just to reminisce about old times, right?"

    "Prime Minister Zhuge is also a smart man, and I won't beat around the bush anymore. Now that the Han Dynasty is over, Xiangyang City may have been captured by the Huaxia Kingdom while we are talking. But Prime Minister Zhuge is stubbornly resisting here, struggling to fight for Jingnan.  The four counties just want to use the four counties in Jingnan to gain a foothold and then surrender to the Huaxia Kingdom, right?" Sun Ce asked.

    Zhuge Liang didn¡¯t deny it, but he didn¡¯t admit it either. He just smiled kindly.

    "Actually, you and I both know that China is full of talented people and has strong soldiers and horses. Even if the prime minister goes away, he may not be able to use it. On the contrary, Soochow has great potential for development. As long as you are willing to submit to our country of Wu, I will  I can let you and Gong Jin stand side by side and command half of Wu's troops. I can also make you the king and guard the border for me to prevent foreign enemies. I heard that Prime Minister Zhuge is not yet married and I have countless beauties in the south of the Yangtze River.  I want to personally select a spouse for Prime Minister Zhuge. I wonder what Prime Minister Zhuge wants?"

    "This matter is of great importance. I need to think about it carefully, because my brother has surrendered to the Huaxia Kingdom. If I surrender to the Wu Kingdom, I am afraid that the Huaxia Kingdom will threaten my brother and my family. I appreciate your Majesty's kindness.  , but I need some time to think about it.¡±

    After hearing this, Sun Ce looked a little happy and asked: "How many days does Prime Minister Zhuge need to think about it?"

    "Three days, three days is enough. At this time three days later, I will personally give an answer to Your Majesty."

    Sun Ce suddenly stretched out his palm, and Shamoko hurriedly stood in front of Zhuge Liang, looked at Sun Ce with eager eyes, and shouted: "What are you going to do?"

    "I don't want to do anything, I just want to high-five the Prime Minister and pledge an oath." Sun Ce was surprised to see Shamoko's reaction so quickly.

    Samoko stretched out his palm and said, "I'm afraid you're cheating, just give me a high-five."

    Sun Ce was not surprised. Seeing Zhuge Liang nodded, he smiled and said, "That's fine."

    ¡°Bah bang bang!¡±

    After three rings, Sun Ce turned around and walked away, saying as he walked: "Prime Minister Zhuge, remember to give me an answer in three days."

    "sure."

    After Sun Ce returned from outside the city, Zhou Yu hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, what did Zhuge Kongming say?"

    "I explained the situation to him and threw out the chips. I saw his face relaxed and slightly happy. I must have been moved. However, he said that his family was all in Gangneung. If he surrendered to our country at this time,  I'm afraid that my family will suffer, so I need to think of a foolproof plan and think about it." Sun Ce walked into the hall of the prefect's mansion, and the servants poured a glass of wine and he drank it.  (To be continued)
