I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 465 Chapter 466, Guan Yu Surrenders

This can also be regarded as the benefit of self-sufficiency in this world. Qingzhou, where Cao Cao is located, has no shortage of food, salt and iron, and even cloth. It can be said that it includes a person's basic necessities of life. I'm sorry but I don't have to buy it!
Although Xun Yu didn't say who Qingzhou was doing business with, Cao Cao knew that they were doing business with Qingzhou, and a large amount of copper coins flowed into Hebei through these transactions every year. Without these cannons, Cao Cao wouldn't care about these copper coins Lost, after all, from the perspective of people in this era, jewels, jade, gold and silver are hungry and can be traded for goods, and Qingzhou is considered to have made a profit.

But now Cao Cao thought that many of the cannons fired by the Dagan Army towards the Allied Army were made of Qingzhou copper coins, and he felt extremely regretful in his heart. Such an important strategic material was easily traded to Lei Gong. Such an unfair transaction is fine!

Guo Jia said helplessly: "In this way, our commercial tax may be greatly reduced, and the entire city of Qingzhou will also become decayed."

But Cao Cao said disapprovingly: "The big deal is bartering. As long as there is food, the people in Qingzhou can survive. Although our policy hurts the merchants in Qingzhou, they can't make waves at all. I haven't learned from Dong Zhuo to slaughter them." , which is already considered good.

The most important thing for us now is to cast artillery. Without artillery, we are lambs waiting to be slaughtered in the face of a large army. Now copper coins are artillery. Any copper coins flowing out of Qingzhou will hurt our strength. We must strictly stop such behavior .

I will let Zi Lian and Manchester City bring all the navy in Qingzhou to block the commercial roads in Qingzhou. Anyone who takes copper coins out of Qingzhou will be caught and never let go. "

Xun Yu and the others thought about it, Qingzhou is now at a moment of life and death, and it is worthwhile for the merchants who sacrificed Qingzhou to get the copper coins for casting cannons. As for taxes, Qingzhou will be wiped out by Lei Gong. !

So after a few people discussed for a while, they will find a way to occupy Xuzhou at this stage, and after this war is completely over, they will find a way to change the currency!

Cao Cao immediately wrote letters to Liu Bei and Yuan Tan stating the cause and effect of his occupation of Xuzhou, asking for their forgiveness.At the same time, Cao Ren was ordered to lead an army of [-] to the south to take over the counties of Xuzhou.

At the same time, with the victories of all parties, the main force of the Dagan was more and more concentrated near Changyi, and Xu Wei even led the army to Changyi.

Nearly 20 soldiers of the entire Dagan Army surrounded Changyi, and Xu Wei also learned the lesson of the Han army's breakthrough in the Battle of Dingtao, and directly ordered the soldiers to dig trenches around Changyi and block Guan Yu and the others inside. I can't do it even if I want to break through!

In Changyi City, Guan Yu and the others watched as the encirclement of the main army became tighter and larger, and there were more and more troops. They had lost contact with the outside world for more than half a month.

But seeing more and more artillery and more and more soldiers in the Dagan army, the generals in Changyi also knew that Dingtao must have fallen, otherwise the main force of the Dagan army would all gather here, and wait until Xu Wei's death. After the flag came to Changyi, even the soldiers in Changyi knew that they were completely alone!The breath of despair hangs over the entire city of Changyi!
The night Xu Wei came to Changyi!
Guan Yu's blood-stained battle robe stood on the top of the city wall and watched the scattered bonfires. From the bottom, it seemed that the sky was below, and these bonfires were all shining stars.

The exhausted Sun Ce stood behind Guan Yu silently. This battle was too difficult for him. In a battle of hundreds of thousands of people, they obviously still had tens of thousands of soldiers in their hands, but they no longer had the will to fight. He clearly had the will to fight. Wan Fu is undeservedly brave, but it is difficult to display it in the face of artillery.And Sun Ce didn't want to die in Changyi City, but if he wanted to say too much about surrender, he couldn't say it.

Yu Jin, Cheng Pu and other generals of the coalition army looked at the bonfire below the city, feeling anxious for a while.They have been besieged here for more than a month, but there is no support army. Yu Jin and others are veterans who have experienced many battles. Seeing Xu Wei's flag, they naturally understand that they have lost this battle!Continuing to stay here now is just lingering, wasting the lives of soldiers in vain.

Yu Jin and the others didn't want to just die in battle in Changyi City. They had learned martial arts and military art. Could it be that they died in Changyi City in such an unknown way, so they have been persuading Guan Yu to surrender to the order of protecting the soldiers these days (of course have their lives too)!
But Guan Yu refused to surrender. He also felt that Liu Bei might have been defeated in Dingtao, but he wanted to persist in Changyi for a while. The longer it takes, the better it will be for Liu Bei to return to Jingzhou to organize a large army to prepare for the main army!
"Guan Yu, wake up, don't count on reinforcements anymore, they are impossible to come, now Lei Gong has come to Changyi, there are 20 troops under the city, if Lei Gong didn't occupy Dingtao, how could there be so many concentrated Soldiers!" Cheng Pu shouted, pointing at the camp of the Dagan Army.

He didn't want Sun Ce to die in the city of Changyi like this, and these Jiangdong generals had already surrendered to Liu Bei once, so it seemed no big deal to surrender to Xu Wei again. It's no big deal, their loyalty to Liu Bei is not that high yet!

But Guan Yu said expressionlessly: "Even if Dingtao is conquered, we will be nailed to death in Changyi. Now there are 20 troops in Changyi. If we surrender, these soldiers will definitely go to Yuzhou, Xuzhou, or even the city of Changyi." Rushing to Jingzhou, when the time comes, the world of the big Han will be over, and as long as we nail the 20 troops of the main army in Changyi City, Xuzhou can be kept, and Yuzhou can also be guaranteed. Even Jingzhou has time to recruit a large army to continue fighting Lei Gong fights!"

"Brother Yun, if we could defend, we wouldn't be so spineless, but now that the big army bombards with thousands of artillery pieces every day, we can't resist. The soldiers have no morale, and they may collapse at any time. I have been standing alone for more than half a month, and I am worthy of the general!" Yu Jin said excitedly, the casualties of the Xuzhou Army he brought had exceeded [-]%, and the morale of the soldiers had collapsed.

"Guan Yunchang, do you want to see our Jiangdong army all die here, so as to fulfill your loyalty!" Huang Gai said angrily.Most of the soldiers Guan Yu brought were Jiangdong soldiers, and many of them were their original subordinates, but now many of them died in Changyi in meaningless battles.

Guan Yu closed his eyes and shook his head in pain. Now not only the morale of the low-level soldiers has collapsed, but even the senior generals such as Yu Jin don't want to die in the artillery bombardment like this.

After a long time, Guan Yu said helplessly: "If you want to surrender, you can go by yourself. The general has treated me well, and I will not let him down!"

But Yu Jin and the others glanced at each other. Of course they could surrender by themselves, and they could even tie Guan Yu and surrender to the main army. After all, the whole army doesn't want to fight anymore.But they wanted Guan Yu to take them to surrender.

They also understand the policy of the Dagan Army. Most of the enemy generals like them are exiled on islands, deserts or the Western Regions for three years before they can return. Only few of them are absorbed by the Dagan Army, or released. And exile on the island is not the result they want.If they want to change their fate of being exiled in the wilderness, they can only rely on Guan Yu!
Although it was just a rumor, they all knew that Lei Gong and the General of the Dagan Army did not know each other back then. In addition, Lei Gong settled in Mayi and the General was farming in Shanggu County. It is said that the general transported a large amount of Mayi goods through the Sanggan River for sale, which solved the problem of funds for reclamation.

When the general was in Youzhou to cultivate, Lei Gong did not step into Youzhou. Even when the general attacked Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun in Youzhou, as long as Lei Gong cooperated with Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, the whole northern Xinjiang would surely fall. Because of his relationship with the Great General, Lei Gong did not attack Youzhou when Youzhou was in such a critical moment.

In addition, Liu Bei's governance strategy in Jingzhou in the past few years has been completely copied from the army. These things have to make people suspect that Liu Bei and Lei Gong have friendship.

In the court, many civil and military officials grasped Liu Bei's point, saying that Liu Bei had an affair with Xu Wei and wanted to dismiss Liu Bei. Fortunately, Emperor Ling was not stupid back then, did he listen to these people's nonsense?

But now Yu Jin and the others seized on this rumor and wanted Guan Yu to lead them to surrender to the main army, so that they could have a better fate!
After Guan Yu knew their thoughts, he could only smile wryly.

Back then, the three brothers had only met Lei Gong once, but it was during the battle in Bingzhou. Even the three brothers almost died under Lei Gong's hands. The others were all rumors, and he was not familiar with Lei Gong at all!
Guan Yu could only helplessly say: "The rumors from the outside world are all false. I only met Lei Gong once, and it was on the battlefield. Lei Gong even injured our three brothers!"

But Guan Yu also had doubts, he felt that Lei Gong really liked the three brothers, otherwise he would not have helped them so much when he was in Youzhou! (Of course, Xu Wei has played more than a dozen versions of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and there are countless other versions of the Three Kingdoms game. He must play Liu Bei in every version. How could he not like it after more than ten years! It’s Xu Wei’s youth!)
Yu Jin couldn't believe it and said: "Brother Yun Chang had a relationship with Lei Gong, but we people don't even know Lei Gong. You have worked hard, Yun Chang, so naturally I won't blame Yun Chang!"

Guan Yu looked at the desolate Han soldiers around him and felt that he was sorry for them, and he should find a way to get some good treatment for them!
The next day, Xu Wei received a report that the Han soldiers in Changyi City were about to surrender, and Guan Yu, the commander of the coalition forces, wanted to see Xu Wei!

Wang Yong said excitedly: "They have finally surrendered, and the battle is over! In power, I ask for orders to lead an army of 5 to capture Xuzhou!"

But Xu Wei said: "Don't be so anxious, let's settle the war in Yanzhou first!"

Half an hour later, Guan Yu came to the big camp of the Chinese army!

Xu Wei smiled and said, "Brother Guan, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years!"

Guan Yu sighed and said, "Yes, it has been more than ten years. Back then we were soldiers of the big man, and you were also the unknown Commander-in-Chief of the Yellow Turban Army, but now you have become a world-renowned prince!"

Xu Wei said: "Didn't you also become a general, even Liu Bei has become a great general, he is now considered to be famous! Who would have believed that Liu Bei, who was only the commander of the army, was under one man and above ten thousand? So this world is unpredictable!"

Guan Yu said indifferently: "Guan doesn't waste time anymore, Changyi can't hold on anymore, as long as you ensure the lives of our soldiers, we are willing to surrender! Guan knows that you like to send people to islands, this Guan I admit it, I just beg Lei Gong not to send my subordinates to the island!"

Wang Yong sneered and said: "Now, you are still qualified to negotiate conditions! The Han army in Changyi has become our pinch, you can't escape even if you want to, and unconditional surrender is your only way out!"

Wang Yong looked displeased at Guan Yu, he was about to surrender, and he showed arrogance to anyone!This means that the ruling has a good temper, if he had beaten Guan Yu out long ago!

But Xu Wei stopped Wang Yong's ridicule and said: "Although Guan Yu is a general of a great man, he is also a hero like our generals.

When he was still a teenager more than ten years ago, he had justice in his heart, hated evil like hatred, and loved to fight injustice.

When he was nineteen years old, he went to Jiecheng to sell ironware, and saw an old man lying on the ground crying loudly after being beaten all over his body.Out of righteous indignation, Guan Yu went up to inquire.The old man said that he was Han Zheng Han Shouyi, a teacher from the county school. His daughter was raped and raped by Lu Xiong, a rich man in the city. .

And this Lu Xiong is a relative of the Zhongchang servant Guo Sheng's family. He fished the local people, bullied men and women, and did all kinds of bad things. The local officials didn't dare to take care of his affairs.

At that time, due to the presence of salt ponds in Jiecheng, the groundwater was salty and inedible. There were only a few sweet water wells scattered throughout the city for the people to drink.Lu Xiong colluded with the government and filled up several sweet water wells in the city, leaving only one sweet water well in his courtyard.You have to pay to fetch water from his house, and there is an additional rule that only young and beautiful women are allowed to fetch water, otherwise they are not allowed to enter his house.The young woman who came in was either molested by him or raped by him.

Although the people in Xiecheng were angry and angry, but Lu Xiong had a backer, no one could do anything about it.Hearing this, Guan Yu was furious, and broke into Lu Xiong's mansion that night, killing all seventy-four members of Lu Xiong's family, including dozens of Hakkas, and killing Han Zheng's family. The daughter was rescued.Let's talk about whether Guan Yu's behavior is a hero! "

Wang Yong immediately said loudly: "Of course you are a hero! You should stand with us to uphold justice for the poor and do justice for the heavens. Why do you want to help the rich and powerful clans continue to oppress the poor!"

Guan Yu didn't know what to say for a while, could it be that he looked down on the Yellow Turban Army!

But Lei Gong's big army is better than the big man in any aspect. His brother has also relied on plagiarizing the policies of the big cadres to make Jiangnan develop and prosper!If Lei Gong is not a traitor, brother should have a lot of things to talk about with Lei Gong!
