The last three kingdoms

Chapter 628 Exogenous Branches
This time the level of envoys sent by Liangzhou was much lower. Tiao Mao did not go again, but sent a subordinate of his. Successfully, the two sides negotiated many details and reached an agreement, and finally decided to surrender the city in three days.

Liu Yin was quite satisfied with the result, probably because his tough attitude forced the opponent to give in and make concessions. All in all, being able to win Gu Zang without bloodshed was an unexpected gain.

If as expected, Guzang City has really reached the end of its strength. It is indeed incredible that an isolated city can hold on for more than a hundred days under the siege of the fierce Xianbei people.

Although the agreement between the two parties has been reached, Liu Yin did not relax in the slightest, because he is very clear that anything can happen before the Shu army enters Guzang City. Don't think that everything will be fine after signing the surrender agreement with Xu Wu Now, until the last moment, no one can say what will happen.

Liu Yin ordered the whole army to remain in a state of first-level combat readiness, ready to enter the battle at any time. Now the Shu army has nothing to do, and the whole army is quietly waiting for three days to come.

Compared with the ease of the Shu army, the defenders in Liangzhou were much more hectic. Registering and counting men, horses and supplies, three days was indeed a hasty time, but Xu Wu did not ask for an extension, because in his opinion, delaying One day, the situation will become even more unfavorable. Now, except for the South Gate, the defense strength of the other three gates has a tendency to be significantly strengthened. Xu Wu knows that the function of the bald tree will not retreat for a long time, which is obviously against Gu Zang. City still has illusions.It's normal to think about it. The Xianbei people in Guzang City besieged for more than three months, and they paid a huge price. It would be very difficult to give up after traveling a hundred miles.

The closer to the last moment, the crazier the enemy will be. Before the Shu army enters the city, the defense of Guzang City is still handled by a small number of Liangzhou defenders. How to stand up for the last shift depends on Liangzhou The burden in front of the defenders, Xu Wu handed it over to Tiao Mao, and Tiao Mao took the unified command, in case of emergencies.

Fortunately, these three days have been very smooth. The Xianbei people may have been affected by the Shu army in the south of the city and did not launch a full-scale offensive. It is just that occasionally scattered troops carry out small-scale harassment of Guzang City. Such military operations It is obviously against the original intention of the function of the bald hair tree.However, in the contest with the Shu army, it has risen to the first position, and the bald tree function is also closely watching the movements of all parties. He does not want to be attacked by the Shu people while attacking.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and in the early morning of this day, Xu Wu personally held Liangzhou's account book, walked with the officials of Liangzhou, opened the south gate of Guzang City, and went out of the city to accept surrender.

Taking a look around, Xu Wu asked Tiao Mao in surprise, "Where is Fei?"

Tiao Mao glanced at the sparse team, and those who could be included in it must be officials with more than [-] shi in Liangzhou. Such middle and high-level officials in Liangzhou can be counted on their fingers. Fei Ping is not in the team. It is also self-explanatory.

"I talked to Fei Biejia last night and informed him that he was going out of town early this morning, but I don't know why he didn't come. Do you want to send someone to inform him?"

Xu Wu shook his head. He was very clear about Fei Ping's heart knot. Unlike others, Fei Ping had a deep national enmity and family hatred with Shu. Fei Ping's father, Fei Yao, died on the front line of the war with Shu. Zhuge Liang was still alive at that time, and Fei Yao died during Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition, but it was more than [-] years ago, but obviously, Fei Ping did not let go of this hatred , when he heard that Xu Wu intended to surrender to the Shu army, he took the lead in standing up and raised strong objections. He didn't show up at this time, presumably because he didn't turn around mentally.

"Fei Biejia has a grudge and doesn't want to go out of the city to go to Shu, so let him go." Xu Wu said indifferently.

"No." Tiao Mao clapped his hands and said yes. The relationship between him and Fei Ping had never been good. Now that Xu Wu had already spoken, Tiao Mao didn't even bother to look for him. It's not harmonious, it's just right if he doesn't come.

While speaking, Xu Wu and his party had already walked out of the city, and the oncoming people were the brigade of the Shu army.

Liu Yin jumped off his horse and went up to meet him.

Tiao Mao introduced to Xu Wu: "This is the governor of Yongliang, the general of hussars Liu Yin."

When Xu Wu saw Liu Yin, he was obviously taken aback. Looking at Liu Yin's appearance, he was clearly still a young man who had not yet reached the stage. It was such a young man who could create such an unprecedented record. Xu Wu couldn't help feeling a burst of shock Preoccupied.

Although Liu Yin had never met Xu Wu, but when he saw the group headed by Liangzhou, the old man with good hair had already concluded that he was Xu Wu, and immediately bowed his hands and saluted: "I have heard the name of Governor Xu for a long time. It is a real honor to see it.”

Xu Wu came back to his senses, and said calmly: "The defeated general, how dare you speak bravely, ashamed and ashamed."

Liu Yin smiled slightly and said: "Inspector Xu defended the city against the barbarians, defended the city for a hundred days, fought bloody battles, and saved thousands of people in Liangzhou from being burned. He is a true hero."

Xu Wu was deeply moved. He had passed his sixtieth year this year, and he was bloody on the battlefield, so why did he regret his death? In the eyes of ordinary people, Xu Wu can be said to be too late.In the eyes of ordinary people, Xu Wu has lived to this age, and if he sticks to Liangzhou City for more than a hundred days, if he dies heroically in the end, such an ending will definitely be more perfect.

Liu Yin's words touched the depths of his heart, making Xu Wu burst into tears, and said in his heart: "The one who knows me is also Liu Yin."

The ensuing surrender ceremony was relatively simple. On behalf of Liangzhou Governor's Mansion, Xu Wu handed over the seal and the account book with the account closed. Liu Yin took it over, which was considered a handover.

When the two sides were about to enter the city together, suddenly there was a faint cry of killing in the city, Xu Wu's expression changed suddenly, and he asked in surprise, "What happened in the city?"

The main officials of Liangzhou all followed Xu Wu out of the city today. Hearing that there was a change in the city, they couldn't help looking at each other, unable to figure out what was going on.

At this moment, some soldiers rushed to report in a panic: "I would like to report to Lord Inspector, something is wrong, don't worry about it, Lord Fei led his troops to raid the North City Gate and forcibly opened the gate. Now Xianbei People have already entered the city, and the defenders are unable to resist the enemy, and they are retreating steadily."

When Xu Wu and the others heard the news, their faces turned pale and they were stunned.
