Rebel camp.
Gaoding drank to drown his sorrows, especially when his capable general E Huan surrendered to the Han army and took advantage of the situation to lead the way, helping the Han army seize the entire territory of Yueqi County.
This was good news. Gao Ding had no time to take away his wife and children. It can be said that the household registration books of the whole family were all intercepted by the Han army.
The already stretched military rations became even worse after Liu Mang released the prisoners.
Fortunately, reinforcements from Yong Kai, Meng Huo and Zhu Bao arrived, which allowed Gaoding's army to stabilize its position.
"Your Majesty, I know you are upset!"
"Liu Mang is such a despicable villain, even Duke Cao was fooled by him!"
Yong Kai smiled at this time and said: "To be honest with you, I am the queen of Yong Chi, Shifang Marquis of Han Dynasty, and the queen of Cao Gong, the prime minister of Han Dynasty, Cao Shen. I have contacted Duke Cao!"
"As long as we go north to attack Chengdu, Duke Cao will send troops from Chang'an and go south to take Hanzhong!"
"Under attack from two sides, Liu Bei and his son will be defeated. We will avenge the king's wife and children!"
Hearing this, Gao Ding was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Yong Kai, you mean that my wife and children have been killed by Liu Mang?"
"No harm to my family! I didn't expect Liu Bei and his son to be benevolent and righteous, even my wife, children, and children would not be spared!"
"I vow to fight Liu Mang to the end!"
Seeing that Gao Ding had made up his mind, Yong Kai raised the corners of his mouth, and his treacherous plan succeeded.
He didn't care about the life and death of Gaoding's wife, children, and children. What he valued was the five thousand soldiers and horses under Gaoding.
Cao Cao promised him to become the lord of Yizhou, and only then did Yong Kai decide to rebel.
Zhibaiqian was only the source. The support of Cao Cao and Sun Quan was the reason why Yong Kai dared to rebel.
"Yong Kai!"
Meng Huo frowned at this time and said: "Gaoding's wife and children may not be killed! If we attack the Han army directly, won't we give Liu Mang a reason to kill?"
"What if it is self-defeating and fails to save people, but ends up killing people instead!"
Yong Kai looked at Meng Huo coldly. If he hadn't already had prestige among the Han and barbarian tribes, he would not have included him in his group.
Now this person is actually dictating to himself.
Although Yong Kai secretly hated Meng Huo, he did not dare to treat him badly.
After all, Meng Huo's subordinate Zhu Timan was extremely powerful in combat and was something that Yong Kai could not despise.
"Liu Mang is a cunning villain. He must have assassinated the king's wife and children long ago!"
"Otherwise, why haven't you released the news yet and threatened the king's wife and children?"
"Although General Meng's words are reasonable, we cannot believe them all! The two armies will fight tomorrow. Your Majesty can ask Liu Mang directly!"
Gao Ding listened to Yong Kai's words, and Meng Huo couldn't say anything anymore.
The Nanzhong rebels wanted to demand war, and the Han army naturally agreed.
Zhengchou couldn't catch them all at once, but the other party actually came to kill them all.
That night.
When Gao Ding was melancholy, he heard that his men were coming to report the matter. E Huan came with his wife, children and children!
This made Gao Ding so confused that he ran out of the military camp without even putting on his shoes.
Seeing that his wife and children were fine, Gao Ding cried with joy.
"Your Majesty..."
"Needless to say, I know you have no choice but to surrender to the Han army!"
"No... I am sincerely convinced and took the initiative to join the Han army."
E Huan's words made Gao Ding extremely embarrassed, "Humph! Then you came here today to scold me?"
E Huan shook his head and said earnestly: "The prince of Hanzhong has said that no harm will come to his wife and children. The Han army is a benevolent and righteous army and will never kill innocent people!"
"The Han official army is not for the purpose of oppressing the people of Nanzhong. The implementation of Zhibaiqian can allow the barbarians to get practical benefits, rather than the price set by those in power!"
"On the contrary, it was Yong Kai who deceived the king into fighting the Han army!"
Gao Ding remained silent, while his wife, children, and children all praised the Han army's benevolence and righteousness.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty has never felt sorry for us these days!"
"The Han army did nothing to the people of Yuexun County!"
"We trust the prince more than Yong Kai!"
The words of his family made Gao Ding deep in thought.
"E Huan, please leave quickly. I will consider this matter carefully!"
Although Gao Ding did not surrender, he no longer had the previous hatred towards the Han army, "Thank you Prince Wang for me!"
As soon as E Huan left, Yong Kai, Meng Huo and Zhu Bao came forward with their hind legs.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, your wife and children are safe!"
Yong Kai secretly hated him, Liu Mang must have done it on purpose.
Didn’t you say that Gao Ding’s wife, children, and children were killed?
I just sent them here tonight!
The two sides agreed to fight tomorrow. Gao Ding originally used hatred to have no room for maneuver with the Han army.
It's good now. Gao Ding's wife, children, and children are all safe and sound. How can he still think about fighting the Han army to the death?
"Yong Kai!"
Gao Ding glared at the other party, "Didn't you say before that my family has been harmed by the prince a long time ago?"
"Why are they safe now? If I listen to you and make the prince angry, won't I be harming them?"
Faced with Gao Ding's question, Yong Kai spoke eloquently and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what you said is wrong! In fact, Liu Mang is suspicious of our plan!"
"The Han people have always looked down upon the barbarians! Today they are just trying to seduce the king with small favors!"
"Otherwise, why not let us barbarians govern the place on our own? Why should we let the Han people intervene?"
Gao Ding's suspicion was still lingering. Meng Huo frowned and said, "Now that we have plotted rebellion, we have no choice but to shoot!"
"If you surrender directly, do you think Liu Mang will believe it easily?"
While Gao Ding was hesitating, Yong Kai's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
"I have a plan to capture Liu Mang and Zhuge Liang in one battle!"
Yong Kai smiled and said: "Liu Mang is sending the king's wife and children today, and we have agreed to fight tomorrow, so the Han army will definitely neglect to take precautions!"
"I want to divide the king's soldiers into two groups and attack the Han army's camp together!"
"If Liu Mang is captured, your Majesty can let him go and repay this kindness. How about that?"
Gao Ding nodded, decided to listen to Yong Chi's words, and planned to take the opportunity to sneak attack Liu Mang tonight.
After walking out of the military camp, Yong Kai secretly warned Meng Huo and Zhu Bao.
"We will send troops for a sneak attack later. We don't need to fight. We only need to shout twice!"
"Yong Kai, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean? Meng Huo, can't you see it? Gao Ding no longer wants to go to war with Liu Mang!"
Yong Kai sneered and said: "As soon as Liu Mang released his wife and children, Gao Ding went to sneak attack. What would you, Liu Mang, do when you were so angry?"
Zhu Bao smiled at this time and said: "The governor is so good at killing people with a borrowed sword!"
"Liu Mang will never forgive Gao Ding when he is furious. We can take the opportunity to gather his troops under the banner of revenge for Gao Ding!"
"This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone!"
Meng Huo's eyes were full of contempt, "You Han people always like to fight among yourself!"
"It is my duty to deal with Liu Mang. If I attack one of my own, I will never go to war!"
Meng Huo turned around and left, and Yong Kai sneered: "When I take charge of Yizhou, I will definitely kill you stupid barbarians!"
"Gaoding, Gaoding, it's hard for you to escape from my grasp!"
…
Han army camp.
Zhuge Liang gently shook his feather fan and warned the generals: "Tonight, the enemy will come to rob the camp, generals, take precautions!"
