Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1641 Hong Xiuquan descended to Chu

Chapter 1639: Hong Xiuquan descends to Chu

"But the military division, the Qin army has already gained an absolute advantage on the Hebei battlefield."

Cao Shen stood up and said unhurriedly: "Even if our army sends troops at this time, it may not be able to prevent the Qin army from occupying Hebei."

Cao Shen's words can be said to be on point.

The battle in Hebei has completely turned to the Qin army. Even if the Southern Han Dynasty sends troops, it may not be able to stop the Qin army. What is the point of sending troops?
"Even if you can't stop it, you still have to send troops,"

Chen Ping didn't even think about it, and said directly: "The purpose of sending troops this time is twofold, one is to contain the strength of the Qin army, it is best to force Qin Hao to transfer troops from Hebei, so as to reduce the pressure on the Northern Han Dynasty.

Second, if it is really impossible to prevent the Qin army from occupying Hebei, our army will take this opportunity to join forces with Li Shimin and others to capture the second state of Jingsi to weaken the Qin army. "

With that said, Chen Ping looked at Liu Ji, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice, "My lord, if you don't send troops at this time, when the Qin army digests Hebei, sits on the land of six states, and controls tens of millions of people, even All the princes joining forces may not be able to check and balance the Qin army, so it is necessary to send troops at this time."

Hearing what Chen Ping said, everyone present fell silent.

Yes, if there is no army to attack Qin at this time, when the Qin army has digested Hebei and its strength has improved to a higher level, it will really be impossible to check and balance the Qin army.

Thinking of this, Liu Ji immediately slammed the table down, stood up and said in a deep voice, "This king has made up his mind and decided to send troops to attack Qin. Where is Li Changji?"

"Subordinates are here."

A young Confucian scholar stood up. He was Li He, who was called the Three Lis of the Tang Dynasty with Li Bai and Li Shangyin, and was known as the "poet ghost". "Changji" is Li He's nickname.

Today's Li He, like Yuan Shao's Chen Lin, is Liu Ji's imperial pen.

"Li Changji, it's up to you to write the petition against Qin. I want everyone in the world to know Qin Hao's hypocritical face." Liu Ji said in a deep voice.

In the last literati list released by famous experts, Li He lived up to expectations and squeezed into the top 36, and was ranked 35th.

As a result, Li He's reputation soared, and he gained a lot of prestige in the hearts of scholars all over the world, so it was most suitable for him to write the Essay on Qin.

"Promise, my subordinates will definitely write an article that will leave Qin Hao infamous forever." Li He said confidently.

"Ah."

Liu Ji nodded with a smile. Of course, he knew the level of Li He's imperial pen very well, and he would definitely hurt Qin Hao's reputation.

"Where is Zhang Song and Zhang Su?"

"Subordinates are here."

The ugly brothers Zhang Song and Zhang Su stepped forward. They were originally Liu Yu's subordinates, but in the confrontation with Liu Ji, Liu Yu repeatedly fell into a disadvantage. Even their brothers, who were civil servants, were captured by Liu Ji .

Although Zhang Song betrayed Liu Zhang in his original history, he was extremely loyal to Liu Yu in this life. Even though Liu Ji cherished his talent and did not dislike his appearance, Zhang Song would still rather die than surrender after being captured.

Unexpectedly, later Liu Ji supported Liu Bian to ascend the throne and established the Nanhan Group, and even Liu Yu was forced to join in.

After the establishment of the Southern Han Dynasty, the conflict between the two Lius was temporarily suppressed. Liu Ji also took the opportunity to ask Liu Yu for Zhang Song's wife and children, but Liu Yu refused to give it. In desperation, the Zhang Song and Zhang Su brothers had no choice but to join Liu season.

"Zhang Song and Zhang Su, let you brothers contact other countries. I want to invite the princes of the world to send troops to fight against the Qin bandits." Liu Ji ordered.

"promise."

Zhang Song and Zhang Su shouted in unison.

----------

Jiaozhou, Nanhai County.

Liu Xiu's army was all over the city, but the gate of Nanhai City was opened wide. Hong Xiuquan led all the generals out of the city, but it was not for war, but for surrender.

Why did Hong Xiuquan surrender?This has to start with Liu Xiu subduing Chong Heihu.

Chong Heihu is the number one warrior in Jiaozhou, but he is not Han. He is from Baiyue and has a very high prestige among Baiyue people.

Hong Xiuquan naturally knew about Chong Heihu, and had recruited him several times, but because the envoy was too arrogant, Chong Heihu was offended, so he resolutely rejected Hong Xiuquan's recruitment.

Seeing that Chong Heihu rejected him, Hong Xiuquan thought that his heart was for Liu Xiu, so he sent someone to assassinate Chong Heihu.

How could an ordinary killer be able to kill the God of War, and the killers sent by Hong Xiuquan were all counter-killed by Chong Heihu.

Originally, Chong Heihu was not going to become an official. After all, the Han people in Jiaozhou are dominant now, but he is a foreigner. However, after Hong Xiuquan's actions, Chong Heihu had no choice but to take refuge in Liu Xiu, in order to avoid Hong Xiuquan's pursuit. kill.

Liu Xiu treated Chong Heihu very courteously, and Chong Heihu came here for refuge, and Liu Xiu entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, which also made Chong Heihu completely return to his heart, and recommended his two good brothers Cui Ying and Jiang Xiong to Liu Xiu show.

Although Cui Ying (Emperor Beiyue) and Jiang Xiong (Emperor Nanyue) did not worship Heihu Qiang, they were solid generals at the level of gods, and the three of them joined Liu Xiu together, which made many small tribes of Baiyue suffer. Homeopathic surrender.

Later, Chongheihu and Sha Moke, the leader of the Wuximan who surrendered, persuaded three of the seven major clans of Jiaozhou Baiyue to surrender.

Since then, although Liu Xiu has not yet unified Jiaozhou, he has taken an absolute advantage in Jiaozhou. Both the Han people and Baiyue have turned to Liu Xiu, and Hong Xiuquan has basically been isolated.

Hong Xiuquan was not a person with a strong will, otherwise he would not have set his sights on the Northern Expedition when he entered Jiaozhou, but now he only wants to guard this one-third of an acre of land.

Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was not completely in a desperate situation, and Soochow was there to share the pressure for Hong Xiuquan, Liu Xiu also learned a lesson after suffering a loss, and faced the provocations of Soochow's army, he only defended and did not attack.

Therefore, even if Soochow has a famous general like Sun Wu who is comparable to Bai Qi, he still cannot break through the defense of the Chu army in a short period of time, but the Chu army can wipe out Jiaozhou before then.

The danger of subjugation made Hong Xiuquan understand many things.

From the beginning of the Yellow Turban Uprising to the present, Hong Xiuquan has been unwilling to admit that he is inferior to Huang Chao and Xiang Yu, but now he has to admit that he is really inferior to them.

Therefore, even if the master let him inherit Da Ming, he would still not be able to fight against such arrogances as Qin Hao and Liu Xiu, and Da Ming's ending might be even worse.

After repeated battles and defeats, Hong Xiuquan lost all confidence and self-denial. Under exhaustion, he finally chose to surrender to Liu Xiu.

Hong Xiuquan finally figured it out, compared to other princes, he was indeed too mediocre, he couldn't bear the pressure, and he was really tired.

"I, Hong Xiuquan, am here to surrender to the King of Chu."

Hong Xiuquan held up the seal of the king of heaven and the tiger amulet of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, knelt down on one knee, and shouted at Liu Xiu who was on the opposite horse.

Liu Xiu glanced at Hong Xiuquan, and Yang Xiuqing, Shi Dakai, Li Xiucheng and other generals behind him, thought for a while, and immediately rode his horse to go, but was stopped by Chong Heihu and Wei Wentong.

"My lord, in order to prevent fraud, let the last general pick it up on my lord's behalf." Chong Heihu said.

Wei Wentong nodded, obviously meaning the same thing.

　The second watch arrives, and four chapters are still owed...
