Chapter 64: Wancheng falls, Zhang Xiu surrenders!

Yuan Shu really hates Yuan Shao now!

This bastard not only broke up with him, but also called on all the princes in the world to jointly attack him, simply wanting to kill him!

You must know that the four armies, except for Liu Bei's army, which can be ignored, the remaining three armies are very powerful.

Especially Sun Ce!

The bravest warrior he had ever commanded,

Now he has become his enemy.

Moreover, Danyang and Lujiang counties were also taken away!

He must kill all these rebellious officials and traitors!

"Your Majesty, think twice!"

Hearing that Yuan Shu planned to face the four armies directly, Yang Hong was shocked and quickly stood up to persuade him: "Sun Ce has rebelled. Now that the six counties in Jiangdong have been lost, it is unwise to fight at this moment!"

"Your Majesty should now avoid his influence and defend Yangzhou; at the same time, contact Sun Ce and promise him to return to his country with huge profits to repel foreign enemies!"

It is actually the Sun family that has always frightened foreign enemies.

Without the Sun family and Sun Ce around, it would be too risky for Yuan Shu to defeat Yuan Shao, Lu Bu, and Liu Bei head-on.

Yuan Shu heard this and said angrily: "I am the emperor! You want me to bow to that arrogant Sun Ce?"

"So what if he rebels against me! Without the Sun family, I still have hundreds of thousands of troops and countless fierce generals! Could it be that I can't survive without him, Sun Ce!"

"What's more, I have destiny, so it's impossible for me to lose!"

The pride in Yuan Shu's heart did not allow him to bow to Sun Ce.

And he doesn’t think he will lose!

Yang Hong wanted to persuade him again, but Yuan Shu had already given the order again: "Ji Ling, Qiao Rui, Li Feng, Liang Gang, Le He Zai!"

"The general is here!"

The five generals heard the news and came out.

Yuan Shu said: "I order you to lead the army to meet the enemy. We must repel all the enemies who invade in order to boost our national prestige!"

"The last general takes command!"

The five generals accepted the order brazenly.

Seeing this scene, Yang Hong sighed and closed his eyes.

My heart sank directly to the bottom.

Nanyang County, outside Wancheng.

The 40,000-strong army was divided into eight square formations and stood neatly on the banks of the Feishui River. It was dark and silent, giving people a strong oppressive force.

Flags embroidered with the word "Cao" sounded fiercely in the wind.

It added a bit of murderous spirit to the army.

This army is the army that Cao Cao came to attack Zhang Xiu!

I saw a road separated from the army formation. Cao Cao rode out on a white horse, accompanied by his eldest son Cao Ang, nephew Cao Anmin and Dian Wei. He came to the front of the army formation and looked at the closed Wancheng gate opposite. .

"Dian Wei, go call the formation."

Cao Cao ordered Dian Wei beside him, his face full of indifference, "Give them one last chance. If they don't surrender, we will attack the city immediately!"

"At that time, all the men, women, old and children in the city will be slaughtered, and no chickens or dogs will be left alive!"

His words were filled with murderous intent.

This time he personally led his troops to attack Zhang Xiu and had already lost a lot of troops. If he continued to attack Wancheng, the casualties would only be even more severe.

He has sent people over and over again to persuade Zhang Xiu to surrender, but now his patience has reached its limit. If Zhang Xiu does not surrender, he will attack Wancheng by force, and then massacre the entire city as a warning!

"Yes! Lord!"

Dian Wei said in a loud voice, placing the two halberds in his hands on both sides of the horse's back, and then rode alone to the gate of Wancheng.

"Listen, Zhang Xiu! My lord has received an edict to retaliate against his subordinates. Your defeat has been determined. Why don't you leave the city quickly and accept your surrender?"

"If you don't surrender within half a stick of incense, the army will attack the city immediately!"

"The day the city is destroyed is the time to massacre the city!"

Dian Wei's voice was as loud as thunder. All the soldiers on the city wall could hear his words clearly, and all of them couldn't help but change their expressions.

While listening to Dian Wei's words, Cao Cao smiled at the two juniors beside him and asked: "Zixiu, Anmin, do you think Zhang Xiu will surrender?"

Cao Anmin heard this and said: "Now that the army is surrounding the city, Zhang Xiu is just a turtle in a urn. Apart from surrendering, what other option does he have?"

Cao Ang also said: "What An Min said is absolutely true. Zhang Xiufei is a fool. He knew he was outmatched and would not defend the city until death. He would definitely surrender to his father.

And while the two were talking, the gate of Wancheng suddenly opened.

I saw a middle-aged man in a brocade robe with a rope tied around his body walking out of the city, followed by a group of civil servants and generals, all of whom were also tied up, and all of them looked a little depressed.

Binding yourself and leaving the city is an act of surrender!

Seeing this scene, Cao Cao laughed loudly, pointed his riding whip at Cao Ang and Cao Anmin and said, "It seems you guessed it right. After entering the city, there will be many rewards!"

After saying that, he clamped his legs between the horse's belly and spurred the horse forward.

When the middle-aged man in brocade robes saw Cao Cao, he lowered his head and said, "Zhang Xiu, the rebellious minister, please surrender to Da Sikong."

This person is Zhang Xiu who is guarding Wancheng!

Just as Cao Ang and Cao Anmin said, Wancheng was besieged and it was only a matter of time before the city was defeated. Cao Cao also promised that if he did not surrender, he would massacre the city. Under such pressure, Zhang Xiu had no choice but to lead his soldiers and staff out of the city. Please surrender.

When faced with Zhang Xiu's request to surrender, Cao Cao just squinted at him and remained unmoved.

Zhang Xiu hesitated for a moment, then slowly knelt down under the gaze of everyone, bowed his head and said: "Zhang Xiu, the rebellious minister, please invite Da Sikong to enter the city!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao's lips curled up slightly, and then he said, "Come here, help General Zhang loosen his bonds." "

Upon hearing this, the guards on the left and right immediately stepped forward and untied the rope from Zhang Xiu's body.

But before Zhang Xiu could react, Cao Cao threw the reins in his hand into his arms and said condescendingly: "General Zhang, lead the horse into the city for me."

Hearing Cao Cao's slightly sarcastic tone, Zhang Xiu felt humiliated.

But he didn't dare to show any expression, silently took the reins, and forced a smile: "Yes, Grand Marshal."

But at this time, a burly man who was tied up in the crowd suddenly stood up and cursed Cao Cao: "Cao thief! How dare you insult my general like this!"

This man was as burly as Dian Wei, and he was a battle-hardened general.

"How dare you!"

Dian Wei was furious when he heard this, and kicked him to the ground with one foot, then took out the double halberd and was about to kill him on the spot, but at this time, Cao Cao spoke to stop him.

"Wait!"

Cao Cao cast his eyes on the general and praised him, "You are a brave man who is not afraid of death in order to protect your master. I wonder what your name is?"

"Hu Che'er!"

"Okay! Come on, untie the brave man and reward him with a hundred gold coins!"

Cao Cao ordered, not hiding his appreciation, and then said, "If you are interested, you can come to serve under me in the future."

Hu Che'er was stunned at this time, not knowing how to answer.

He thought that he would definitely be killed by Cao Cao if he jumped out to defend his general. Unexpectedly, Cao Cao not only did not kill him, but also rewarded him and even intended to recruit him.

Without waiting for Hu Che'er to reply, Cao Cao took his eyes away from him and said to Zhang Xiu, "General Zhang, why don't you lead the horse quickly?"

Zhang Xiu sighed, took the reins, and slowly walked towards Wancheng.
