"Report!"
"General, something serious has happened."
"Most of the brothers have put down their weapons and gone home to farm."
"The soldiers and horses of the imperial court have come to kill us."
"Where to go, General, please tell me?"
A soldier rushed into the Chinese army's tent in a panic and reported the situation to Xu Rong with fists in his hands.
"What? Why is this happening? Damn it, everyone has escaped, how can Yuan Ke fight to the death? Quick, pass this general's military order and send people immediately to chase them back."
"Those who do not come back will be subject to military law."
"cut!"
When Xu Rong heard this, he stood up suddenly, pointed at the soldier and said loudly.
"General, general, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up, because there are too many people running away."
"I just took a look. There are at least six floors in the camp. Most of them are the subordinates of General Li Jue and General Guo Si. The two generals just died and no one can restrain them."
"Now, the situation is over."
Xiao Bing said softly.
"What? How could this happen? Then Yuan Ke only has a few thousand troops, and our Xiliang army has 200,000. What are these trash, what are they afraid of?"
Xu Rong slapped the table and roared loudly, expressing his incomprehension.
"General, what are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court constantly preaching in the camp [Those who surrender should put down their weapons and leave, and the imperial court will forget the blame]. Everyone sees that Lord Dong Zhuo, General Li Jue and General Guo Si are all dead, so what else is there? All the fighting spirit has gone away.”
Xiaobing explained.
"What?"
"This is clearly a delaying tactic by the imperial court. Those who surrender put down their weapons and let the past go. How could that piece of shit emperor let us go?"
"A bunch of trash, brainless people, who were deceived and foolishly took money for others."
"Once the imperial court frees up its hands, it will definitely settle accounts with us."
Xu Rong roared loudly.
He didn't believe that the court would really let them go.
Over the years, Dong Zhuo had brought trouble to the court, poisoned the young emperor, and killed hundreds of officials. These soldiers were all accomplices. He did not believe that the young emperor and the officials in the court would let them go.
In his opinion, everything is a delaying measure.
"...."
The soldier lowered his head and said nothing, and did not dare to speak nonsense for fear of offending Xu Rong and attracting punishment.
"General Xu, according to Wenhe, the story of surrender is not entirely false. Besides, the rumor just now said that the Lord was killed by the emperor is really unbelievable."
"The little emperor is young and has no power. He is a puppet. He is trapped in the palace. Where does he get the soldiers and horses, and where does he get the opportunity to kill the lord?"
"Now it seems that everything was done by Yuan."
"The Yuan family of Runan, the fourth generation and the third prince, has disciples and old officials all over the world. Now he is secretly raising soldiers and armor. I am afraid that his plot is the same as our lord, which is the supreme power."
"This time the Yuan family took the opportunity to launch an attack. In the future, the person who will take over and replace him will definitely be the Yuan family."
"If you put it this way, we are not surrendering to the imperial court, but actually surrendering to the Yuan family. The Yuan family happens to be employing people now. If we surrender to the Yuan family, not only will we not be liquidated, but we can continue to enjoy the glory and wealth."
Jia Xu began to reason.
"Commander Li, what do you think?"
Xu Rong couldn't help but be shaken.
He was indeed worried, but Jia Xu's reasoning just now was also very reasonable. If it was true as Jia Xu said, and they surrendered to the Yuan family, they would not have to die, but would be reused.
"General Xu Rong, what Military Advisor Jia just said is very likely that the little emperor is young and has no foundation. At the moment, the only person in the court who is most likely to replace him is the Yuan family represented by Taifu Yuan Wei. .”
"Although Wang Yun is a Situ, he is not as powerful as the Yuan family. He has no soldiers and horses at his disposal. He is powerless."
"Now, the Yuan family is at the right time to hire people. Our surrender to Yuan Ke is like giving timely help. In the future, when the Yuan family gains power, we will also be able to lift the boat."
Li Ru was also a poisonous man, good at strategy and talented.
He also agreed with Jia Xu's point of view and surrendered to Yuan Ke.
"good!"
"The general will follow the instructions of the two military advisors."
"drop!"
...
clatter!
clatter!
clatter!
As soon as Xu Rong's words came to light, the sound of war horses neighing came from outside the Chinese army's tent, but it was Yuan Ke and Fan Chou who came over with thousands of soldiers and horses.
"Quickly, surround this place and don't let a single bird escape."
"not good!!"
"Come so fast!"
At this time, Xu Rong, Jia Xu and Li Ru who were in the Chinese army's tent heard the movement and came out to greet them.
"ah--"
When Xu Rong saw Fan Chou and the elite soldiers around him, he immediately fell to the ground and knelt down without hesitation.
"General Yuan, calm down and don't take action. Xu Rong is willing to surrender."
"Well--"
Yuan Ke, who was riding a red dragon horse, was quite surprised when he saw this. He thought to himself, "You surrendered before the general persuaded you to surrender?"
Although he was quite depressed, it was a good thing for him that Xu Rong could surrender.
"good!"
"The emperor is benevolent and righteous, and there is an edict saying: "Anyone who surrenders will still be used in important ways."
"Xu Rong, what is your current position?"
Yuan Ke asked.
"Returning to the general, the last general is now the Dian Army Zhonglang General, responsible for the 50,000-strong Bingzhou Army in the Zhongjun Camp."
Xu Rong cupped his hands and said.
"good!"
"You continue to serve as the Zhonglang General of the Dian Army. Immediately collect the troops and horses in your [Zhongjun Camp]. From now on, your [Zhongjun Camp] will be under my personal control. Afterwards, you will follow my general into Chang'an."
"Understand?"
Yuan Ke held the Tianlong city-breaking halberd and gave orders.
"promise!"
Xu Rong accepted the order.
"Fan Chou, it's up to you to accept and persuade the soldiers who are still resisting to surrender. I will personally form the [Dragon Elephant Battalion]. Only the best among the best, do you understand?"
Yuan Ke's move was aimed at recruiting troops.
Naturally, he would not allow the 200,000 Dong Zhuo Army to be wasted. Recruiting Dong Zhuo Army's elite soldiers into his own account would also become his capital to dominate Chang'an.
"promise!"
Fan Chou cupped his hands and said.
"As for you, I allow you to recruit 20,000 soldiers and horses on your own to form the [Liangzhou Camp]. You will control it personally and you will only be responsible to me. Do you understand?"
Yuan Ke promised Fan Chou.
"promise!"
Fan Chou heard this and raised his hand to accept the order.
"Instructions, in half an hour, this general will pay homage to the general at the school grounds to inspect the camps. No one is allowed to ask for leave."
"Anyone who does not come to participate in the review will be killed."
.......
In the Chinese military tent, more than a dozen soldiers lined up on both sides. Cheng Yaojin personally led the team to protect them with a big ax in his hand. The big ax in his hand was bright and intimidating.
"Both strategists, please take a seat. This general is very easy to talk to."
Yuan Ke sat leisurely at the main seat and drank tea. He took a sip of tea and moistened his throat before speaking to comfort Jia Xu and Li Ru in the tent.
"Thank you, General!"
Jia Xu and Li Ru were granted amnesty, and then sat down. Just now they were so nervous that they almost wet their pants.
Now at this time, Fan Chou and Xu Rong had already gone to persuade the rebels in the camp to surrender and recruit the rebels in accordance with Yuan Ke's words.
At this time, Fan Zhong and Xu Jie, with three thousand soldiers, were guarding both sides of the Chinese army's tent to prevent rebels from breaking into the camp.
clatter!
clatter!
clatter!
Yuan Ke looked at Li Ru and Jia Xu carefully. Both of them were famous "poison warriors" in the Three Kingdoms. They were good at strategy and were rare talents.
"Two gentlemen, are you willing to serve as a military advisor to this general and serve me?"
he asks.
"A certain wish!"
Li Ru and Jia Xu did not hesitate and immediately agreed to Yuan Ke's solicitation.
"Well--"
Yuan Ke also felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the two agreed so readily.
However, I didn't pay much attention to it.
He began to ask the two for advice.
"Two gentlemen, now that our generals are few and far between, how can we conquer these [arrogant and powerful generals] left behind by Dong Zhuo?"
he asks.
"General, this is easy. Now that Li Jue, Guo Si and Dong Zhuo have all died at the hands of the general, all the dragons are leaderless. Generals Fan Chou and Xu Rong have surrendered to the general. As long as the general understands his interests and promises land, wealth and silk to win over his heart, then Use peerless force to intimidate the three armies and establish prestige, and then the three armies will have their hearts set on them.”
Li Ru proposed a plan.
"General, there is a poisonous plan that allows the general to gather hundreds of thousands of Dong Zhuo's troops for his own use in the blink of an eye. It's just that this plan is vicious, but will the general dare to execute it?"
Jia Xu cupped his hands and said.
"Mr. Wenhe, whatever you say, I, the general, will listen carefully."
Yuan Ke knew that Jia Xu was a poisonous person, and the strategies he mentioned were probably extremely practical and destructive.
"This plan is easy. When the general is inspecting the troops and horses, all the thirty-seven captains and one hundred and thirteen captains among the generals will be killed. Once these captains and captains die, Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, and Guo All of Si's cronies in the army will also be killed. At that time, the general will promote their deputies to captains and captains. These newly promoted captains and captains will be grateful for the general's promotion and will swear to the death to become generals. Effectiveness, like this, the three armies can determine."
Jia Xu's plan is really vicious.
