Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 115
"If you can't bear it, just loosen it. It's okay. If you tie me up, you can save the lives of thousands of soldiers. It's nothing if I'm wronged!" Gong Yinglian said.

Feng Yao was silent, he didn't know what to say, if he refused it would seem a bit hypocritical, if he agreed, it would be a bit ungrateful!
"Okay!" Gong Yinglian suddenly laughed, "This is something to be happy about! Isn't it! If you feel sorry, let me have a private conversation with the envoy!"

"It's really hard for you to do this! If this can be done, I can promise you something as a reward in the future!" Feng Yao said guiltily.

"Really? Is it anything?" Gong Yinglian asked with a smile.

"Of course not. I mean the ones that I think are reasonable and within the range of my acceptance." Feng Yao said.

"Well, no matter what, you have to know that the reason why I help you is actually for myself and my family. You don't have to worry about it too much. The rebel army has no way out. Judging from the current situation in Runan, the rebel army is defeated. It's just a matter of time, if you can surrender to your hands, it's the best destination for the rebel army!" Gong Yinglian said.

Hearing these words, Feng Yao's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help looking at Gong Yinglian with admiration. He didn't expect that a woman like Gong Yinglian could see this level. Indeed, the final ending of the Yellow Turban Army in history was indeed tragic, and the Taoism involved In the next two years of history, he was no longer loved by the emperor's family. Instead, Buddhism, which had no desire to dominate, became the number one religion.

Gong Yinglian's face turned red when Feng Yao looked at her, she lowered her head, pointed at Feng Yao's boots and said, "Put on your boots and discuss the matter, otherwise outsiders will see us and think there is something wrong with us!"

Feng Yao quickly put on his boots, calmed down his emotions, and then called Yang Wu and other personal attendants and envoys of the Yellow Turban Army to enter the account, and wrote a reply letter to Gong Du, asking Gong Du to come out of the city to discuss, and then Feng Yao ordered Three battalions and three thousand soldiers came to wait for Gongdu under the city, but Feng Yao did not enter the range of the crossbow on the city, but waited outside the east gate where he had just shot an arrow.

At the same time, Xu Chu and Dai Ling led the army to stand beside Feng Yao, in case Gong Du launched an attack.

Although Gong Yinglian was tied up, but only lightly, just to make a show for Gong Du, she was pushed to the front of the line, standing on Feng Yao's left side.

The formation was completely defensive, with a thousand swordsmen at the head, a thousand spearmen at the rear, and a thousand archers in the middle. Even if Gong Du sent troops to attack Gong, Feng Yao would not be afraid at all.

At about the end of noon, Gong Du arrived as promised, but only brought three thousand yellow scarves, and stood near the city gate, ready to retreat to the city at any time. The distance between the two armies was only a few tens of feet, and they could barely hear each other's words.

Gong Du asked loudly, "Is my daughter Yinglian here?"

Feng Yao said: "General Gong, your daughter is safe and sound, come and see for yourself if you don't believe me!"

"Father! Yinglian is fine!" Gong Yinglian said.

When Gong Du saw that his daughter was covered with ropes, he looked terrified, and said, "Yinglian, what do you want me to choose? Tomorrow is still in Pingyu City. If Dad agrees to your request, I'm afraid Tomorrow will not survive!"

Gong Yinglian lowered her head and wept, not daring to look at her father's sad expression.

"General Gong! Just listen to me." Feng Yao tried his best to sound sincere, and bowed his hands to Gong Du from a distance to show respect.

"General Gong! I believe you know the generals under my command. Not to mention the former Zhou Zheng, Wang Ba, Zhang Shi, He Tong, He Tie, etc., they are Cheng Gu, Du Heng, Wen Xun, etc. who just joined me. The generals have been trusted and reused by me. Doesn’t General Gong think that he can’t beat them? Today, in front of thousands of soldiers, I, Feng Yao, promised that if General Gong is willing to sacrifice the city and surrender, I can leave all the positions under my command to you. Choose, and I can even report to the imperial court to ask for credit for General Gong!" Feng Yao said loudly.

"It's not that I don't want to surrender, but that I can't bear to lose my only son!" Gong Du said.

Seeing that Gong Du's words softened, Feng Yao was overjoyed in his heart, and he bowed again and said, "General Gong's understanding of righteousness is worthy of admiration! But has General Gong ever thought about it, now that there are no more than ten thousand sons in front of the two armies, they also Everyone has their own family, their own relatives! If anyone dies on the battlefield, the grief of his family will be no less than that of General Gong!"

Gong Du remained silent, so Feng Yao persuaded again.

"General Gong, I swear here today that if Liu Pi dares to hurt Lingzi, I will throw all my troops in the county and swear to kill Liu Pi's family to avenge Lingzi!" Feng Yao said harshly.

Gong Du hesitated, in fact, he had already started to hesitate after he received the message from his daughter Yinglian!Because of the misfortune in the family in the early years, Gong Du regarded his daughter as much as his son, and he was unwilling to give up any of them. Moreover, according to his daughter's analysis, the Yellow Turban Rebels really couldn't hold on!And the most important point is that Gong Du already knew what was going on with his daughter, and at the same time knew Feng Yao's true identity.

Shen Ling paused for a while, then Gong Du said: "Mr. Feng, if you want my Gong Du to submit to you, it is not impossible. As long as you agree to one condition, I will sacrifice the city immediately!"

Feng Yaozai was overjoyed, and quickly agreed: "General Gong, whatever the conditions, just come out, as long as I, Feng Yao, can do it, I will definitely agree!"

"Hahaha! Mr. Feng, you keep saying what you want to say, but there is no basis for what you say. After thinking about it, there is only one way for me to sleep soundly from now on! That is the marriage between you and me. As long as you dare to marry my daughter Gong Yinglian in front of the armed forces, I will immediately surrender the city!" Gong Du said.

Feng Yao sat on the horse and almost fell off the horse in shock. He thought he had heard it wrong, and asked in surprise, "General Gong! What did you say? Can you say it again!"

"Mr. Feng, I want you to agree to marry my daughter right now in front of the soldiers of both parties. Why? Do you have to repeat it again! Did you not hear clearly, or do you think my daughter is not good enough for you? !!" Gong Du said angrily.

As soon as Gong Du's words came out, the soldiers from both sides were stunned, and there was an uproar. Feng Yao didn't know what those Yellow Turban soldiers were thinking, but at this moment, the three thousand soldiers from Fang already focused all their eyes on him. And the body of Gong Yinglian who was tied up!
Feng Yao was about to faint!I've heard of marriage marriages and joint marriages, but I didn't expect to meet someone who forced a marriage today! !And in front of thousands of soldiers from both the enemy and our side, they forcefully forced the marriage.

Feng Yao turned his head to look at Gong Yinglian, just in time to meet Gong Yinglian's gaze, Gong Yinglian immediately lowered her head in shame, not daring to look at Feng Yao, then squatted down and buried her head in her knees, With just a glimpse just now, Feng Yao suddenly understood why Gong Yinglian was so confident in persuading her father to surrender. He recalled Gong Yinglian's weird expression when she whispered to the messenger in the morning, combined with the fact that Gong Du suddenly proposed to force her daughter to marry him. How could he still not understand the tone of his tone and the trace of guilt in Gong Yinglian's eyes just now!

What Gong Yinglian said to the envoy at that time turned out to be giving Feng Yao herself as a spoil of surrender! !
At this time Xu Chu suddenly bowed and said, "My lord! We all think that righteousness should be the most important thing at this time! My lord must agree to General Gong Du's request! And according to my subordinates, as long as my lord nods his head lightly, he can immediately make a move." Sandu, I got the city of Yanyang, got more than 1 troops, and got a beauty! Such a good thing, the subordinates can't ask for it, I hope the lord must think twice, don't shirk!"
