Humiliate the Yi city.
Still in that brothel.
The patrons in the brothel had been rudely driven away by the guards of General An Xuanhuan. Even the madam and the girls who were in charge of the brothel were locked in a large room and were not allowed to come out.
In the pavilion occupied by Xue Ne, An Xuanhuan, Xue Ne and Mo Enjun were sitting on each side.
An Xuanhuan is tall and burly, with a slightly bulging belly, a ferocious appearance, and full of murderous intent. He looks like a standard military general.
Xue Ne sat opposite him calmly. Under An Xuanhuan's murderous gaze, he poured himself a drink calmly, frowning and smacking his lips.
"It tastes worse than urine. The land of Dongyi has not yet become a king. It can't even make decent wine. Bah!" Xue Ne took a sip.
In front of the defender of Shangyi City, Xue Na still behaved like a playboy. Not only was he fearless, but he also put on a high airs, just like An Xuanhuan and his own father.
An Xuanhuan's eyes were still murderous, but he made no move.
To be able to become a city guard, one must be somewhat scheming and would not fall out over such a trivial matter.
At this moment, An Xuanhuan was not surprised at all that the Tang Dynasty envoy appeared in this city.
Frontline military reports are delivered every two hours. An Xuanhuan has grasped the movements of the Tang army. The latest military report said that the main force of the Tang army under Qibi Heli is only more than a hundred miles away from the city of humiliation. If nothing unexpected happens, , the troops will arrive at the city in two days.
Before the Tang army was about to attack the city, a secret envoy from the Tang Dynasty sneaked into the city and had a secret meeting with the enemy's defender...
Isn't this normal?
What is Xue Na doing here? Apart from persuading surrender, what else can you do? Could it be that he was so full that he sneaked into the enemy's city to prostitute girls?
What An Xuanhuan didn't know was that if he hadn't stepped into this brothel today, Xue Ne would have had no choice but to prostitute the girl in this enemy city and leave in despair.
Isn't this a coincidence? It's not.
It was indeed a coincidence, as if it was a fate destined by God.
Xue Ne made up his mind. Since it was a big gamble, he simply put down all the psychological burden. I had to make this happen.
What he didn't know was that An Xuanhuan also had his own plans.
The two were silent for a long time, and Xue Ne glanced at him sideways: "Can you understand human language?"
An Xuanhuan blinked blankly, and Mo Eunjun next to him carefully translated it in Goguryeo.
An Xuanhuan suddenly realized, then frowned, and said in blunt Chinese: "I... have been stationed in Humili City for many years, and have had dealings with your businessmen from the Tang Dynasty. I... can speak a little bit of Chinese."
Xue Ne nodded: "That's good, General An. You must also know the purpose of my coming to the city today. If you give me a pleasant word, I will sacrifice the city. I solemnly promise you on behalf of Li Ji, the general manager of the march in Liaodong Road, that the Tang Dynasty will keep you safe." The general has been prosperous and prosperous for generations."
"If General An doesn't agree, just pretend that I haven't been here today. Our Imperial Army of the Tang Dynasty will arrive at the city in two days, and we will have a solid fight. However, I want to remind you that after the Imperial Army breaks the city, it will kill the whole city. No chickens or dogs will be left behind, including General An himself and your family."
An Huanhuan looked angry and stood up: "How dare you threaten me? My An family has been favored by the King of Goguryeo. This family and country are at a critical moment. You taught me to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. Do you think I am a born traitor? You thief." How dare you insult me!"
There was a sudden gloomy wind in the pavilion, and goosebumps appeared on Xue Ne's back.
However, Xue Ne's expression remained calm. He slowly poured himself a glass of wine from the pot and took a shallow sip. The unspeakable taste made him sigh in disgust.
Putting down the wine cup, Xue Ne said slowly: "General An, calm down, I'm just discussing a business with you today. Business is a matter of mutual consent. If you don't want to dedicate the city, just treat it as if it's not a deal." That’s it, let’s just stop talking.”
An Xuanhuan said coldly: "The matter of the survival of the family and the country, the noble envoy actually compared it to the pursuit of profit. Is this the secret envoy sent by the Tang Dynasty? It makes the world laugh!"
Xue Ne smiled and said: "General An, I have a digression,... do you like money? Money piled up like a hill, of course, there are also silver cakes, pearls, jade, gems, etc., do you like it?"
An Xuanhuan said coldly: "Whether you like it or not, what does it have to do with you?"
"Let me ask another digression,... do you like beauty? The kind of stunning beauty who captivates the whole country and makes me fall in love with her all the time. The kind that I can sleep with even ten thousand times is too much. Do you like it?" "
An Xuanhuan became increasingly impatient: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Xue Ne said calmly: "As long as you donate the money and beauty I just mentioned to Humili City, you will have these. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will also record your merits for you, grant you an official title, and give you a luxurious house and fertile land. In short, you Just change to a wise master and you can get everything you want."
"And if you persist in your stubbornness and continue to resist for the sake of so-called loyalty, then not only will everything I just said disappear, but you, your family and relatives, including the entire city's soldiers and civilians, will all be killed by my king's master. I am coming The coach has made a statement before, if the city is not surrendered and destroyed, no chickens or dogs will be left!"
After saying that, Xue Ne looked at him with a smile.
However, unexpectedly, An Xuanhuan did not show any fear, his expression was very calm.
Xue Ne continued: "Two choices, two completely different results. General An, a man who sticks to loyalty and filial piety should also judge the situation and be aware of current affairs."
"The Imperial Army of the Tang Dynasty is about to approach the city. Your reinforcements from Pyongyang haven't arrived yet, right? There are only about 5,000 defenders in the city. You don't think that with this small number of soldiers and horses, you can stop the thunderous strike of our Tang army, do you?"
"The city's destruction is an inevitable result. I believe General An also agrees with this result. Since the city is destined to be attacked, what exactly is General An holding on to?"
The corner of Xue Ne's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a smile: "Is it possible that General An's loyalty to the Lord of Goguryeo is so great that you are willing to risk your own life and that of your family and relatives to fulfill your loyalty?"
"If this is the case, after my king's army breaks the city, I will plead with the marching commander to allow him to bury you and your family's bodies together, and to erect a loyalty stone for you."
"You are amazing and noble! You would trade your own life and that of your whole family for a cold stone tablet. You are a great hero and will be remembered forever."
The strange words finally made An Xuanhuan change his expression.
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you if you speak so harshly?" An Xuanhuan said with a serious expression.
Xue Ne spread his hands indifferently: "If you want to kill, kill quickly, I will be reincarnated as soon as possible... But if you dare to kill even the secret envoy of the Tang Dynasty, after our army breaks the city, you and your family will not end up with a single sword." It’s so simple to behead you, but you will be chopped up alive piece by piece by my soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.”
An Xuanhuan stared at Xue Ne with cold eyes.
Xue Ne also looked directly into his eyes without showing any signs of weakness. The two refused to give way to each other, and the air seemed to freeze for a time.
After a long time, An Xuanhuan finally slumped his shoulders and sat back heavily.
Xue Ne also took advantage of the situation and breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now... I almost pissed myself, it was so exciting.
An Xuanhuan was silent for a long time and said slowly: "You mentioned money, beauty..."
Xue Ne immediately patted his chest vigorously: "I swear on the coffin lid of the eighteenth generation of my Xue family ancestors that I will have a lot of money and beauty, and I will ensure that you and your descendants will be prosperous and wealthy for generations to come!"
An Xuanhuan was stunned for a moment. There were many people swearing, but this was the first time in his life that he swore on the coffin lid of his eighteenth generation ancestor.
Although it was a bit cruel, and I don’t know if this unworthy descendant had the consent of his ancestors, I have to say that the oath was full of sincerity.
With a lot of money and beauty, An Xuanhuan finally showed his greed.
In fact, he had already made his choice before he decided to meet Xue Ne.
If he was determined to hold on to the city, why would An Xuanhuan see Xue Ne? He had already been driven out of the city with random sticks.
Since we have decided to meet, it means that the matter can be discussed.
Assessing the situation and knowing current affairs, An Xuanhuan knows how to weigh things better than Xue Ne.
An Xuanhuan grabbed the wine bottle on the table, opened the lid and poured the wine into his mouth. After drinking it all, he wiped his mouth hard and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I Dedicate the city!”
Xue Na was overjoyed.
Happiness came so suddenly that he couldn't believe it.
Having convinced the city's garrison so easily, Xue Ne felt that he was simply a talent. In terms of ability, he was probably on par with brother Jing Chu, right?
This Eastern Expedition is destined to be the battle that makes Xue Na famous. From now on, the limelight of Chang'an City will not only be beautiful by Jingchu brother alone, but also by Xue Na.
From then on, the two geniuses of Chang'an City, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix, swaggered through the city and roamed the countryside. What a scene it was.
However, before Xue Ne showed a happy expression, An Xuanhuan suddenly said: "I promised to dedicate the city, but there is a mortal enemy of mine in this city. If I don't get rid of him, this matter will be difficult."
