Technology dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 161 [Shi Xie: God will help the thief but not me! 】

At dusk, the sun sets.

Xiyu City, northwest of Jiaozhi City, was already in flames.

At this time, outside the east gate of Jiaozhi City, Hao Meng and Guo Jia had already led an army of more than [-] and began to surround Jiaozhi City.

Depending on the situation, Hao Meng and Guo Jia planned to temporarily attack Jiaozhi City, only to encircle and not attack.

Jiaozhi City is the foundation of the Shixie family, and the method of breaking the city of Longbian City cannot be copied to Jiaozhi City.

Although [-] warriors from the Shenbing Battalion had been mixed into Jiaozhi City in advance, according to the information obtained by the Shenbing Battalion, Jiaozhi City had long been run almost monolithically by the scholars.

Moreover, it is impossible to open the gate of the city with thirty soldiers from the Divine Army Battalion.

More importantly, news just came from Xiyu City: Although Shi Xie's soldiers and horses broke through Xiyu City, Xiyu City was burned by Liu Yan and Yu Bao. Few people.

"Today's sunset is as red as fire, and anyone who gets close will be burned to ashes!"

In the barracks outside the east gate of Jiaozhi City, Guo Jia held a jug of wine and enjoyed the sunset in the west while drinking.

As for the matter of Guo Jia drinking in the army, Hao Meng also turned a blind eye to it. Who told Guo Jia that he had a lot of tricks, Hao Meng still hoped to get closer to him.

"I'm afraid Guo Canjun is not looking at the red sunset, but admiring the fire in Xiyu City. I didn't expect that Liu Yan and Yu Bao would be so vicious that they burned down Xiyu City, let alone that there would be How many people will die in the sea of ​​fire."

Hao Meng looked at the raging fire in Xiyu City, which made him tremble with fear.

For Yu Bao and Liu Yan's vicious methods, Guo Jia wanted to do it, but he would not do it. He said: "Yu Bao and Liu Yan were originally Zhu Fu's minions. There are a lot of unconscionable things. It is not surprising that such methods are used today."

"Hmph, if I meet them again in the future, I will definitely tear them apart." Hao Meng said angrily.

Turning his gaze to Jiaozhi City ahead, Guo Jia said: "General, the final general suggests writing a letter of persuasion to Shi Xie now, and at the same time tell him the news about Longbian City and Xiyu City. Our strength and his treatment after surrender."

"It is not difficult for our army to capture Jiaozhi City, why should he surrender?"

Hao Meng didn't think it was necessary. He had made arrangements to surround Jiaozhi City first, and then ambushed Shi Xie's soldiers and horses returning to Xiyu City.

That being the case, why bother to write a letter of persuasion?

Guo Jia disagreed, and explained: "General, it is not difficult for us to take Jiaozhi County, but if we want to govern Jiaozhi County, at least for now we need Shi Xie and his family to contribute."

"The situation in Jiaozhi County is complicated, especially there are many barbarian tribes in mountainous areas. Judging from the fact that Zhu Fu was assassinated by barbarians before, Shi Xie and his family have an unusual relationship with these barbarian tribes."

"In order to avoid many troubles in the future, we need to keep Shi Xie and his family temporarily. Moreover, if Shi Xie surrenders, we can also reduce many unnecessary casualties. I hope the general will think twice."

Hao Meng thought for a while and said, "Just follow Guo Canjun's words, but it's best for you to write this letter of persuasion to surrender, so that Shi Xie can surrender quickly."

"I'm so happy." Guo Jia said with a smile.

At the same time, people in Cochin City are now restless.Not only are there rebels surrounding the city, but their eyes are now focused on the northwest.

Looking at the sea of ​​flames coming from Xiyu City, most of the people felt fear and trepidation.

The crowded crowd outside the prefect's mansion hoped that the prefect would come forward to comfort them and explain to them what happened.

The housekeeper was worried about Shi Xie's condition, so he didn't dare to disturb him.

But after a long time, Shi Xie in the room can also hear the noise outside, and he can sense that there should be nothing serious.

"Cough cough."

Shi Xie got off the bed with difficulty, came to the door, and told the guards outside: "Go and find the housekeeper, hurry up!"

Not long after, the housekeeper came and found Shi Xie sitting on the bed, worried: "Master, why did you get down, be careful of the wound."

It was at the moment of life and death, how could Shi Xie care about the wound, he looked at the butler and asked, "Why didn't you report what happened outside?"

The steward hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Master, Jiaozhi City has been besieged by rebels now."

"As expected." Shi Xie thought it was because of this that the people in the city panicked, "By the way, is there an urgent report from Xiyu City?"

"This." The butler was about to say something about Xiyu City just now, but was interrupted.

"Don't hesitate, tell the truth!" Shi Xie was a little anxious and impatient, and scolded the housekeeper.

The housekeeper trembled in fright, and hurriedly said, "Master, Xiyu City is already in flames, redder than the setting sun!"

"what?"

Shi Xie didn't believe it, "Hurry up and help me to the courtyard, I want to see it with my own eyes."

When he came to the courtyard, Shi Xie looked at the sky in the northwest, which was already like a sea of ​​fire, and was stunned. If he hadn't been supported by the housekeeper, he would have fallen to the ground.

After half a sound,
Shi Xie came back to his senses and shouted loudly: "My God, what's going on?"

Coincidentally, Shi Yi's urgent report and Guo Jia's letter of persuasion to surrender were delivered to the prefect's mansion almost at the same time.

puff.
After reading the urgent report sent by Shi Yi, he couldn't hold back immediately, and a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth.

The letter said: They lost more than half of their attack on Xiyu City this time. The soldiers and soldiers pursued the enemy lightly and fell into an ambush, and they were already buried in the sea of ​​fire.

With nearly 3 people, more than half of them were lost in the attack on Xiyu City, and he also lost a brother. Shi Xie was desperate and desperate.

After half a stick of incense, Shi Xie finally recovered.If he hadn't persisted, he would have passed out long ago.

"Bring the letter from the rebels."

After receiving Guo Jia's letter of persuasion to surrender from the housekeeper, Shi Xie didn't know how he finished reading this letter of persuasion that almost killed him.

puff!
Another mouthful of blood flew out, and after reading the persuasion letter, Shi Xie passed out.

"Master! Come here, send the doctor!"

The butler supported Shi Xie and shouted loudly.

Shi Xie didn't wake up until midnight, when Shi Huang was also in his room.

"Brother Shi Huang, it's great to see you back. Has Shi Yi led his army back to Jiaozhi City, where is he now?"

Shi Xie was overjoyed when he opened his eyes and saw Shi Huang beside him.

However, Shi Huang lowered his head and sighed, "Brother Weiyan, let's surrender."

hum.
These words almost made Shi Xie faint again, he understood the meaning of Shi Huang's words, most of Shi Yi and those soldiers were ambushed by the rebels, and Shi Huang was sent into the city to persuade Shi Xie to surrender.

puff.
Unable to hold back a mouthful of old blood, Shi Xie smiled bitterly, and shouted to the sky: "God will help the thief, not me!"
