After surrendering, Gao Shun could not figure out Cao Cao's thoughts.
Cao Cao once expressed that he wanted him to return, but he declined. He did not want to serve Cao Cao, but he had to surrender because he was trapped in the camp. He thought Cao Cao would kill him, but he did not do so.
Cao Cao let them live well in Cao's camp and received courtesy.
However, Cao Cao now sent himself to the rear army to meet Chen Zhou, and Gao Shun didn't quite understand why he did this.
It's not that Gao Shun never thought about leaving, leading his soldiers to break out when Cao Ying's defense was relaxed, but Cao Ying never relaxed, charging forcefully and worrying that none of the remaining soldiers trapped in the camp would survive.
If this is the case, it would be better not to surrender, but to fight to the death that night and fight to the death together.
Gao Shun is very confused now and doesn't know what to do.
"It's me!"
Chen Zhou said: "I also asked the lord to send you here. The main purpose is that I told the lord that I can let you stay and serve the lord."
This sentence is quite direct and does not hide it at all.
Gao Shun said: "I said..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Zhou interrupted: "You don't have to refuse in a hurry. I said I can make you return home. I must have my reasons. Why don't General Gao go in and take a look?"
With that said, Chen Zhou pointed to the tent where Lu Lingqi was locked up.
Gao Shun was even more puzzled, but thinking that he was like this, he didn't worry about whether Chen Zhou had set a trap for him, and went straight into the tent.
When he saw the people inside, Gao Shun was stunned for a while.
"Uncle Gao."
Lu Lingqi thought it was Chen Zhou who came in again and was about to teach Chen Zhou a lesson. When she saw Gao Shun, she was surprised and happy: "Why is Uncle Gao here too? Did my father ask you to save me? No. ! Or is it that father and Cao Cao have made peace?"
When she was captured, Gao Shun was still fighting with Lu Bu, so she doesn't know what happened next.
"I surrender!"
Gao Shun reluctantly told the matter.
"Father... only one person escaped?"
Lu Lingqi asked unconvincingly.
How could they fail so miserably?
Gao Shun nodded.
"Why can Uncle Gao come to see me?"
Lu Lingqi felt a little confused again. Since Gao Shun refused to surrender, he should have been controlled or even locked up. He could not move around Cao Ying at will.
"The young man outside said he had a way to get me to submit to Cao Sikong, so I came here out of nowhere."
Gao Shunwei explained.
Lu Lingqi gritted her teeth when she mentioned the young man outside.
Seeing that Lu Lingqi was safe and sound, Gao Shun was relieved. It would be best if everything was fine. It seemed that he could still get special treatment here.
They chatted with each other for a while, and Gao went out by the way and saw Chen Zhou still sitting outside, smiling and waiting for him to come out.
"Did you see that?"
Chen Zhou asked.
Gao Shun nodded and said, "I saw it, what next?"
Chen Zhou said: "I think you can leave a fight to the death for Lu Bu. Your relationship with Lu Lingqi is still very good. As long as you are willing to surrender, I can treat Lu Lingqi well. If there is a chance in the future, I can send her back or let her out."
Gao Shun was silent.
Lu Lingqi really liked him, but was it appropriate to let go of her obsessions and surrender?
"Since you can surrender for the soldiers trapped in the camp, why can't you surrender to the lord for them? As long as you truly surrender, they will not die. Otherwise, I don't know whether they will survive in the end."
"Besides, what's good about Lu Bu?"
"I can't keep my daughter, I can't even keep Xiapi anymore."
"On the contrary, if you look at Duke Cao, he is the one who welcomes the emperor and defeats the rebels. He is the wise master who brings peace to the world."
"If Xiapi can't be defended, Lu Bu will probably be gone. It's actually quite stupid for you to give up your own future for the sake of loyalty to Lu Bu. It's probably because of your relationship with Bingzhou."
"If you are very angry, we have killed so many of your soldiers who were trapped in the camp. How many people you have died, I can give you as many more people to help you reorganize the trapped camp, even more powerful and better equipped than you were before."
"Go back and think about it!"
Chen Zhou advised.
However, the content of his persuasion was not particularly tempting, nor was it coercion or inducement. He just helped Gao Shun analyze the pros and cons of surrendering and not surrendering.
After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and asked Xu Chu to take the person away.
Next, Gao Shun needs to consider whether he should surrender or not.
"That person outside, come in."
At this time, Lu Lingqi shouted.
Chen Zhou had no choice but to go in and see if the young lady had any orders for him.
Lu Lingqi said again: "What are you going to do with my Uncle Gao?"
"Of course I want to persuade him to surrender."
"What if you don't surrender?"
"If you don't submit, you will die. I believe Lu Bu will do the same if he captures our general."
Chen Zhou said casually.
Lu Lingqi said anxiously: "Can you... don't hurt Uncle Gao? He is very powerful and can help you do a lot of things."
Chen Zhou said amusedly: "He is Lu Bu's subordinate. As Lu Bu's daughter, you still want Gao Shun to submit to us. As a daughter, you are somewhat rebellious and unfilial!"
"Don't worry about my affairs!"
Lu Lingqi said proudly: "Anyway, you can't hurt Uncle Gao."
She just didn't want Gao Shun to be killed. It would be best if Gao Shun could leave.
"Why?"
Chen Zhou held his hands, looked at her with a smile, and said, "You seem to be my prisoner now."
"I……"
Lu Lingqi couldn't think of why.
She just thinks that Chen Zhou is super hateful. She has never seen such a hateful guy.
Seeing that she was speechless, Chen Zhou laughed loudly and stopped teasing her. He turned and left the tent and went outside to talk to Lao Dian about his life ideals. However, Lao Dian was still worried about the battle with Lu Bu.
He was still constantly adjusting and studying his playing style, preparing to fight Lu Bu again, and had no time to pay attention to Chen Zhou.
night.
"Come in, that person outside, come in!"
At this time, Lu Lingqi shouted again.
Chen Zhou rolled his eyes, thinking that it would be really troublesome to bring this young lady back, so he reluctantly went in and said, "My name is Chen Zhou."
"I don't care who you call me."
Lu Lingqi clamped her legs and said softly: "I...I want convenience!"
After saying this, her face turned as red as a ripe apple. She was so shy and charming that she had exhausted all her courage to say this in front of Chen Zhou.
I can barely hold my legs together.
In order to avoid the embarrassment of convenience, she tried not to drink water today and only ate a few pancakes, but even if she stopped drinking, she would still feel anxious.
When Chen Zhou heard this and saw her shy little expression, he immediately became happy. After searching in the tent for a while, he brought out a clay pot and threw it to her, saying, "It's up to you!"
It was impossible for him to let her go outside to avoid people running away.
"This...no...can't do it!"
Lu Lingqi was so embarrassed that she almost cried. She resisted the urge to urinate and said, "I want to go outside."
Chen Zhou said: "You can go outside, but there are patrolling soldiers everywhere. If you are accidentally seen, it has nothing to do with me. Come on, I will take you out."
Lu Lingqi: "..."
This bastard knows how to bully me!
