As Xiliang warrior Wang Huan was killed by Yang Li, and Wang Wende was captured alive by Lu Li, the battle ended with the Shu army's victory!
Just as Fan Kuai, Liu Bang, Hu Li, Lu Li, and Leng Bao were organizing their soldiers to clean up the battlefield, they saw General Yang Li standing alone in the center of the battlefield. The mahogany sword with a goat's horn was flying up and down, and the sword dance was as graceful as a giant, attracting frequent glances from everyone present.
"Ding! It was detected that Great Immortal Yang Li had a deep understanding in the battle with Wang Huan. The bottleneck of martial arts was broken through. The basic force value was permanently increased by 1 point. The current basic force value of Immortal Yang Li was increased to 103."
The Great Immortal of Yangli has been settling down to a basic force value of 102 for a long time. Now that the opportunity comes, the force value has been permanently improved.
"It is indeed our Shu army's good fortune that General Yang Li's strength can be further improved!"
"Report! Our army just clashed with the Xiliang army. General Lu Li captured alive a powerful enemy soldier on the battlefield. He is now at your disposal, my lord."
Liu Bang was full of praise for Yang Li. It happened that the Shu soldiers came forward to report the results of the battle. After Liu Bang learned that General Lu Li had captured the Xiliang warrior Wang Wende, he smiled happily and was about to go to persuade Wang Wende to surrender.
After military advisor Chen Ping heard the news that Liu Bang was going to persuade Wang Wende, the brave general of Xiliang, to surrender, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, a little gaffe! The reason why Chen Ping was like this was mainly because he didn't think Liu Bang could successfully recruit Xiliang warrior Wang Wende into his army.
Why do you think so? There are three reasons:
First, Wang Wende is a native of Xiliang, and his reputation in Xiliang is quite high. If he chooses to surrender to the Shu army to save his life, he will definitely be spurned by his hometown and colleagues in the future. For an arrogant general, it would be more uncomfortable than killing him and taking his life!
Secondly, Wang Mang and Dong Zhuo had the kindness to know and support Wang Wende. Even if Wang Wende died, he would not choose to betray his lord.
Thirdly, Wang Wende is now over forty years old, has two sons and one daughter, his beloved wife is pregnant, and the whole family has settled in Wuwei County, Xiliang. If he chooses to save his own life and surrender to Shu Army, then his family, even if they are not executed by the whole family, will definitely not have a stable life in the future.
To sum up, military advisor Chen Ping does not think Wang Wende will surrender to the Shu army!
"General Fan Kuai, would you like to come with me to see Wang Wende, the brave general of Xiliang whom my lord is trying to persuade to surrender?"
Fan Kuai had nothing to do, so when he saw the military advisor taking the initiative to invite him, he happily agreed, and then followed Chen Ping to the military tent where the prisoners were guarded.
The group of people quickly entered the prisoner's tent. As soon as they entered the door, they saw the lord Liu Bang standing at the door of a cell with a livid face. According to Chen Ping, Liu Bang's attempt to persuade him to surrender was probably a failure.
When Liu Bang saw that military advisor Chen Ping and his favorite general Fan Kuai had also arrived at the tent, a flash of embarrassment flashed in his eyes, and his originally livid face turned slightly rosy. He shook his head helplessly and said to Chen Ping He said: "I can tell you, this guy just doesn't want to surrender to our army. Does the military counselor have any clever tricks to make him willing to be driven by me?"
Seeing that Liu Bang still refused to give up, Military Advisor Chen Ping couldn't help but hide his face and chuckle, then waved his wide sleeves and replied: "Wang Wende is a famous general in Xiliang. His family, including young and old, settled in Wuwei County, Xiliang. If he chooses to surrender to our Shu army, how will Thief Dong and Wang Mang treat his family?"
Military advisor Chen Ping reminded Liu Bang with a word!
Liu Bang sighed regretfully, and then looked at Wang Wende who was chained inside through the bars of the cell, and he couldn't help but feel a sad feeling in his heart.
"General Wang Wende, good birds choose trees to roost, and good ministers choose their masters to serve. Don't you think about it anymore? As long as you are willing to surrender to our Shu army, then I will send your family and children to Wuwei County. Take it over and let you meet again in Shu."
Wang Wende, who was chained in the cell, heard Liu Bang mentioning his family, and he couldn't help but froze. Then he saw his face bursting into tears, and he knelt on the ground with a bang, and then he bowed heavily. He kowtowed in the direction of Liu Bang and Chen Ping.
"Dong Gong and the head of the family (Wang Mang) treated me
It's not bad. I can only repay the kindness of knowing and meeting my will by dying. I also ask the general to make me die quickly! "
Publicly or privately, Wang Wende could not choose to surrender to the Shu army. At this time, he had a death wish. Even if someone in front of him made extravagant words to persuade him to surrender, he remained indifferent.
"In that case, let's follow General Wang Wende's wish! I hope that in the next life, the general will never be an enemy of our Shu army again..."
"Thank you, General Liu Bang, for giving me death!"
Liu Bang glanced at Wang Wende regretfully, and then waved his hand, signaling his confidant Fan Kuai to escort Wang Wende to the execution ground.
"The general will obey your orders!"
Fan Kuai understood and immediately ordered the soldiers to open the door of the cell, and he would personally escort Wang Wende to the execution ground. Just as Fan Kuai entered the cell, Xiliang warrior Wang Wende looked up to the sky and laughed, even to tears. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his sharp eyes were filled with determination to die. He straightened his back and held his head high. He held his head and let Fan Kuai escort him to the execution ground!
At three quarters of noon, the sharp decapitated knife fell violently, and a stream of scarlet blood shot out. At this point, Wang Wende, the warrior of Xiliang and one of the ten envoys of Water Margin, the "Night Wandering God", died!
Wang Wende's death was just an episode in the Shu army's journey. Now the Shu army is approaching Hangu Pass. The successive battles have caused Liu Bang and the others to lose the advantage of being overt and covert. The next battle will probably be worse than the previous ones. Each time was more cruel and tragic.
"Master Military Advisor, what is our next strategic route? Should we continue to test the strength of Hangu Pass, or should we directly lead the army to attack Wuguan Pass?"
In Liu Bang's inner thoughts, he prefers to directly lead the army to attack Hangu Pass. After all, once they defeat Hangu Pass (which is equivalent to directly demolishing the west gate of Sili), they can then lead the army to directly attack Hangu Pass. Dao Huanglong, march to the capital of Luoyang in the shortest possible time, and rescue the emperor and all the civil and military officials!
"Otherwise, your lord can send Guan Ying, Lei Tong, Peng Yue, Lu Wan and other generals with 10,000 warriors to attack Wuguan. Take Wuguan first and leave a way out for us. As for the other generals, you can follow My lord, let’s attack Hangu Pass together. It’s not too late for our Shu army to find out the strength of Hangu Pass before continuing with the next strategic deployment!”
Liu Bang immediately adopted the idea of military advisor Chen Ping, and immediately saw that he summoned Guan Ying and other generals and ordered them to lead the army to capture Wuguan!
"Give me the order to send troops to Gu Pass!"
Following Liu Bang's order, the Shu army started to move like a torrent of steel and moved slowly towards Hangu Pass in the north.
