"Sir, how can you know if you don't give it a try?" The ministers around Shi Mao must be considered veterans who governed Nanzhou with him! Despite the disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves, he is still very self-aware.
this……
"Surrender! Who is willing to ask for surrender?" Shi Mao glanced at the crowd.
At this time, the envoy sent by Li Jing finally arrived in Nanzhou City.
On the back of the envoy, the banner with the Chinese character Qin fluttering in the wind was extremely dazzling and came into everyone's eyes.
The word Qin...isn't that a member of King Qin?
Seeing the banner with the word "Qin" makes people think of the state of Qin. and! The news of Qin's crusade against Nanzhou reached the ears of the people of Nanzhou as early as two days ago.
Nowadays, the four gates in Nanzhou City are tightly closed, and all the people are not allowed to enter, let alone let them go out. This has also made the people of Nanzhou City full of resentment. On top of the city tower, 15,000 Nanzhou soldiers were waiting in strict formation, with swords drawn and crossbows drawn. In the city, it can be said that people are panicked and restless. The reputation of the Qin army has long spread throughout the world and shocked the world.
This is what ancient soldiers were like! They only obey the arrangements from above. Unless the generals die in battle or abandon them, people with a little bit of backbone will not foolishly surrender to the enemy.
"Who is coming below? Tell me your name." The general guarding the city looked at the person coming below and shouted immediately.
The envoy of the Qin army pulled the reins and shouted to the soldiers on the tower: "I am the envoy of General Li Jing, and I have been ordered to come to see Nanzhou Prefect Shimao."
Li Jing?
Isn’t that a general of the Qin army?
Li Jing's name is known to almost everyone in Nanzhou! In the northern grasslands, with an army of 10,000, he defeated the Liao general Hurhuo and annihilated more than 50,000 enemies. From then on, the name of Qin General Li Jing naturally spread throughout the world. Later, he conquered Huangpao and became famous far and wide.
The most important thing is that Nanzhou has never had any famous generals. And Li Jing is from Nanzhou, you should know it! Li Jing became a general under the command of the King of Qin, almost leading the army alone, and gained a great reputation. All the people and officials in Nanzhou couldn't help but feel happy. But this time, they didn't expect that the person who attacked Nanzhou was actually Li Jing.
Not to mention fighting, even now, the soldiers on the tower no longer have the intention to continue fighting. It would be better to be stationed in Nanzhou alone! Wouldn't it be great to fight with a good general in the north and south?
The generals in the city. After hesitating for a while, he directly addressed himself as brother and brother and shouted to the people below the city, "Brothers below the city, is the General Li Jing you are talking about the General Li Jing of Qin?"
"Exactly! My general is originally from Nanzhou. This time, I have been ordered by the King of Qin to regain Nanzhou! Moreover! My general also said that Nanzhou is his hometown and he does not want to fight against each other. He specially ordered me to come and offer his surrender. Get a copy of the book!" The messenger told the truth directly, after all! Even a fool can see the situation in Nanzhou.
In Nanzhou's situation, it was impossible to stop Qin's army. Resisting stubbornly will only lead to death!
"Instruct the soldiers below to open the city gate and let people in." The general guarding the city said to the person next to him.
"promise!"
moment! After receiving the order, the Nanzhou soldiers immediately opened the door.
The Qin envoy glared at the horse's belly and immediately ran in.
A short while later, the envoy arrived at Nanzhou City Mansion.
At this time, in Nanzhou City, all the ministers, including Shi Mao, were worried.
Since they chose to surrender, no one dared to go because they were afraid of the Qin army. ,
Just worrying can kill someone.
"Everyone is greedy for life and afraid of death. I have spent my life raising you all in vain!" Shi Mao complained to everyone.
At this moment, the envoy who came from outside the city without any hindrance, led by a few soldiers, arrived directly outside the main hall.
"Reporting to Lord Zhou Mu, the envoy of the Qin Army asks for an audience!"
The soldier said something outside the door.
Um!
Hearing the words of the soldiers outside the door, Shi Mao's little face immediately became cute. All the ministers also got up and straightened their clothes.
Good guy, these old guys, even though they are superficial, they are quite diligent in what they do, right?
but! They did not expect that the Qin army, which could have directly captured Nanzhou City, would actually send envoys.
I don't know what it is for.
Everyone is also looking forward to it.
"You are the envoy of the Qin Army, please come in!" Shi Mao said in an old-fashioned manner.
I feel energetic now, it was not like this just now!
Crunch!
The envoy entered the house directly, looked around, and couldn't help but sneer.
Is this guy really good at pretending?
"The envoy of the State of Qin, pay homage to Mr. Zhou Mu!" The envoy bowed slightly.
oh!
Shi Mao looked at the latter seriously and said, "Envoy of the Qin Army, please get up!"
"Lord Xie Zhoumu!"
The messenger stood up.
"I wonder what the Qin envoy is here for?" Shi Mao asked deliberately calmly.
"hiss!"
The messenger took a breath of cold air. Are these bastards really pretending to be confused?
He knew clearly that the Qin army was calling, but he still pretended to be a high-minded, dead pig who was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.
"Let's make it clear! I, the Qin Army, came here to capture the entire Nanzhou and expand the territory for my king. The purpose of my coming here under the command of General Li Jing is very simple, to recruit you to surrender! If you don't surrender, you will be killed. Within a few days, we will break through Nanzhou City and wipe out the entire Nanzhou." The envoy did not give these people any face.
Originally, he wanted to submit Li Jing's letter to him to Shi Mao, but now it seems! It seems that it is no longer needed. after all! This group of people looked so arrogant, it would be better to just say it directly.
The Qin State has not been forced to the point of asking others to surrender!
But the surrounding ministers were extremely angry. A mere messenger could have such a loud tone. It’s too presumptuous!
"Is this the attitude of the Qin army in recruiting us? Isn't it too rude?" A minister stood up and challenged the envoy directly.
"hehe!"
The messenger smiled slightly, extremely mockingly.
"It seems that what I said is not clear enough. I, the Qin State, are here to surrender. I am not begging you to surrender. I am just here to bring you a message. If you are unwilling to surrender, what will happen! It is also very simple."
"We have a direct fight with the elites of our Great Qin State. But! I wonder if Nanzhou City can withstand the continuous bombardment of our Qin State's artillery with the strength of Nanzhou City!"
Qin's firearms are the best in the world. This is enough to make Nanzhou City tremble!
this……
Threats... naked threats?
However, the opponent does have strong qualifications, who makes Nanzhou City weak!
"Lord Zhou Mu, my words have been conveyed. As for whether to surrender or not, that's your business!" After saying that, the envoy was about to leave.
Shi Mao suddenly stopped the latter, "Wait a minute, please go back, the envoy, and tell General Li Jing that all of us in Nanzhou City are willing to surrender."
