Hee Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 550 Persuading Xu Huang to Surrender (Part [-])
There is a Kunpeng in the sky, spreading its wings proud of the sky; heaven and earth are just swept away, and the four seas are unified;
On the winter solstice of 202 A.D., Chen Deng of Xuzhou surrendered to Dayan and led [-] Dayan navy into Xu. Two days later, they captured Xiapi, the prefecture of Xuzhou. Five days later, they captured Chu County, Dongwu, Yangdu, Lingxi, and Juxian respectively. Each city completely cut off the rear roads of the Wei and Wu countries in Pingchang City, and formed a huge encirclement circle with the Second Army Corps outside Pingchang City.

As the news spread, the coalition forces of the two countries in Pingchang City fell into endless panic and anxiety.

In the government office, Xu Huang sat blankly on the main seat, his eyes lost their previous brilliance. Chen Deng's betrayal at this time was fatal to the entire Wei Dynasty.

"It's over, it's over," Chen Qun on the side sighed deeply.

"Xiapi was seized, and hundreds of thousands of loads of food and grass were returned to Dayan. In ten days at most, our army will face the danger of food shortages, and they will all collapse without fighting." Zang Ba also said in despair, he was not as brave as before.

"The overall situation is settled, everything is over." Lu Su was also in the hall, his eyes were filled with tears. First, Zhou Yu and other Wu elites were captured, and now Chen Deng rebelled. Xuzhou is over. The Central Plains is over, Wu is also over, the world will belong to Dayan, and they will all become prisoners of their ranks.

"Chen Yuanlong..." Xu Huang suddenly let out a cry of extreme unwillingness, and pounded heavily on the desk with both fists.

"General, Yuan Ping sent an envoy." At this moment, a deputy general suddenly ran in to report.

Xu Huang's eyes were fixed, he slowly raised his head, and said in a cold tone: "What else does he want to do?"

"What else is there, it's nothing more than persuading him to surrender?" Lu Su said lightly.

"He was dreaming, and he would not seek refuge with Dayan even if he was about to die," Xu Huang said angrily.

"General, don't be angry, let's see what Yuan Ping said?" Chen Qun persuaded helplessly.

Xu Huang clenched his fists tightly. After a long silence, he uttered a few words with difficulty and said, "Bring it in."

"promise!"

Not long after, a handsome man dressed in the five-rank official uniform of Dayanzheng came slowly into the main hall.

After the four people in the hall took a look, Chen Qun suddenly shouted in surprise: "Yuan Ji"

"Uncle" saw the man salute Chen Qun respectfully. He is really Chen Zuo of the third generation of the Chen family. He is currently the staff member of the Second Army Corps and is in charge of logistics supplies.

"Why are you here?" After being surprised, Chen Qun yelled worriedly. At this time, Xu Huang was furious, and he might kill the envoy.

"My nephew came here this time under the orders of the Marshal. I hope that General Xu Huang can open the city and surrender, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties," Chen Zuo said honestly.

"Dreaming" Xu Huang roared immediately, with murderous intent on his face: "Seeing that you are Changwen's nephew, I will let you go this time, get out of here immediately, and tell Yuan Ping, come to attack the city if you have the ability "

Chen Zuo smiled slightly, not frightened at all, and cupped his hands and said, "General Xu Huang, the overall situation is settled now, and the entire Pingchang will run out of food in half a month at most, and our army can take Pingchang at any time."

"Are you scaring me?" Xu Huang's eyes became sharper.

"Yuan Ji, step back," Chen Qun ordered immediately.

"Uncle, my nephew is right. The marshal asked his nephew to tell General Xu Huang that as long as General Xu Huang is willing to surrender, the marshal can immediately go up to the king and avoid the original order to massacre the city." Chen Zuo announced loudly road.

"What?" Chen Qun's pupils shrank.

"General Xu Huang, you are a peerless general, so you are naturally fearless, but have you ever thought about the lives of the [-] to [-] soldiers and tens of thousands of civilians in the city? Maybe they don't want to fight anymore, they want to go home and reunite with their families , They want to live a peaceful life for a few days, now the general situation of the world is settled, don't hide it from the generals, the Shu Kingdom has completely retreated, the five kingdoms are gone, the time has come for the world to be unified, and the people should also enjoy the coming of ruling the world, The decades of war should be completely over," Chen Zuoyu said earnestly.

Xu Huang's whole body was shocked, and he couldn't help but took a few steps back.

"Since Emperor Ling, there have been quarrels all over the world. How many people have died, how many relatives have been separated, and millions, even tens of millions of people have been displaced. Now that the king has inherited the destiny and the order, why should the general be foolish and loyal?" Chen Zuo continued to persuade with a sincere face.

Hearing this, both Zang Ba and Chen Qun bowed their heads. If it was okay, they would naturally be willing to pledge their allegiance, but the current situation is obvious, he is already doomed to lose. Chen Tan is right, why bother to increase the numbers? Ten thousand armies and the lives of the people.

"Master Chen, Lu Zijing in the Kingdom of Wu, I have something to tell you." At this moment, Lu Su suddenly asked expectantly.

"Lord Lu Su, you want to ask Dudu Zhou?" Chen Zuo laughed immediately.

"Really, how is Gongjin?" Lu Su's eyes flashed with eagerness.

"Lord Lu, please rest assured, Governor Zhou is a world-class talent. He has been safely sent to Yecheng. After the Central Plains is unified, the King will see him in person," Chen Zuorou said.

Hearing this, Lu Su's face immediately relaxed a lot, as long as he didn't die, he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you very much."

"You're welcome, you'll be a minister of the palace in the future," Chen Zuo said with a smile.

Lu Su was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"Yuan Ji, come with me." At this moment, Chen Qun said seriously.

"Uncle" Chen Zuo was a little surprised.

"Go" Chen Qun pulled Chen Zuo out of the main hall.

After coming outside, Chen Zuo said anxiously: "Uncle, my nephew's task is not finished yet."

"What else do you have to say? General Xu Huang is much smarter than he imagined. If things go too far, let the general think about it." Chen Qun frowned.

Chen Zuo was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly realized that he was indeed a little anxious.

"Yuan Ji, are you okay in Dayan?" Chen Qun asked with concern after changing the conversation.

"It's good, but because of the third brother's matter, the Chen family is not as good as the Xun family at present," Chen Zuo said helplessly.

"Someone has also heard about your third brother's matter, and he simply doesn't know what it means. Is he qualified to talk about it? King Yan didn't kill him because of our Chen family." Chen Qun said disappointedly.

"Uncle, don't be angry, the king didn't say anything about this matter in the end, and the marshal also attaches great importance to our Chen family, otherwise it won't be our nephew's turn to persuade us to surrender." Chen Tan comforted,

"One is because you are a certain nephew, and the other is because the Yuan family was originally the head of the noble family in the world. They naturally have a good impression of my Chen family, but this alone is not enough. If every generation produces a person as arrogant as your third brother For those who are arrogant, my Chen family will perish no matter how powerful it is," Chen Qun said seriously.

"Uncle said yes," Chen Zuo said hastily.

"It's an opportunity for you to persuade to surrender this time, and it may improve your status in the heart of King Yan." Chen Qun's eyes flashed brightly.

"Uncle means?" Chen Zuo was a little excited.

Chen Qun sighed, and said: "Uncle didn't make a good choice, and the Chen family can only rely on you in the future. The world has been divided, and it is impossible for King Wei to turn around. Uncle will help you and let you stand firmly in Dayan." heel"

Chen Zuo's eyes immediately showed deep joy, and he saluted deeply: "Thank you, uncle."

That night, the temperature was slightly cooler, and Xu Huang and Chen Qun stood side by side in a pavilion in the government office.

"General" Chen Qun just wanted to say something, Xu Huang waved his hand lightly, and said expressionlessly: "There is no need to say too much in the long article, I know what you mean, it is indeed time to end now, King Wei has lost."

"General, it's God's will, you can't help it, don't blame yourself too much," Chen Qun comforted.

Xu Huang smiled wryly, and said: "Tomorrow, the generals of all armies will be called together for a discussion, and there will be something to announce."

After finishing the order, Xu Huang left directly.

"No!" Chen Qun replied.
