In order to show bravery and deter the enemy, Zhu Jun ordered the Han army to push all the more than 1,000 captives captured in front of the rebels and behead them all in front of the rebels.

More than 1,000 heads fell to the ground, and then they generously made a terrifying Jingguan in front of the formation.

The rebels were terrified, the number of deserters was increasing, and the Karasuma people were also unstable within the army, and many Karasuma people were talking about Qiu Liju's unauthentic way of doing things, and they took everyone to this troubled water, and now they can't go, and they can't beat them, what should I do?

Qiu Liju is really in trouble.

If you want to go, the Han army plus the 20,000 cavalry of Nanlou are eyeing each other, and they will definitely be able to catch up, and then fight, he has just been defeated by the Han army head-on, and he really has no confidence to fight again.

When we are in a dilemma, there is not enough food to plunder, and we are really in big trouble now.

At this stall, Cheng Li offered Guo Peng a clever plan.

Cheng Li suggested that Guo Peng drive a group of cavalry and truckloads of grain outside the barracks at night, and then after dawn, they will be stationed in the barracks with banners and gongs and drums, creating a false impression for the rebels that the Han army has increased troops and food, and put huge psychological pressure on the rebels.

Guo Peng was overjoyed and immediately told Zhu Jun about this clever plan, and Zhu Jun was also overjoyed and immediately put it into practice.

Then Qiu Liju got a report from the sentry, saying that the Han army had increased its troops and food, expanded the barracks, and it seemed that it was going to fight a decisive battle with them.

Qiu Liju didn't believe it at first, but after he disguised himself and went out to investigate the news in person, he was convinced that the report of the sentry was true.

What can I do now?

Qiu Liju's heart beat a drum.

Then, Cheng Li offered another plan, saying that at this time, Qiu Liju could be sent more stringent peace conditions, giving Qiu Liju the illusion that the Han army was confident, causing him huge psychological pressure.

Guo Peng immediately told Zhu Jun, Zhu Jun was very happy, and sent Qiu Liju more excessive peace conditions, such as asking Qiu Liju's subordinates to compensate for the difficult building.

Qiu Liju was terrified in his heart after seeing it, and he was even more sure that the Han army was confident, so he was so fearless.

And he saw that the food was decreasing, he couldn't leave if he wanted to, he wanted to fight but had no morale, the morale of his subordinates was getting lower and lower, there were more and more complaints, and the number of riots by the Hanhu rebels and the people had also increased significantly.

These people are terrible, if they don't leave, it is estimated that even they will die here.

After not sleeping for two nights in a row, Qiu Liju decided to talk to the Han army about the conditions, and discussed with the Han army in a tone of lack of confidence whether he could negotiate peace according to the previous requirements.

Zuo Dan Yu is Zuo Dan Yu, and Wuyan's subordinates are Uyan's subordinates, as long as he can be allowed to go.

The Han army's reply made his heart cold, and the Han army not only insisted on the original conditions unwaveringly, but even added some of the troops who asked for it, and said that if Qiu Liju continued to bargain, he would increase more of the troops who asked for it.

Qiu Liju had lost his normal judgment ability, and under heavy pressure, he decided to accept the conditions of the Han army.

But he demanded that the Han army keep his promise, otherwise he would fight with the Han army to die without his life.

Zhu Jun came to meet Qiu Liju in front of the battle as the commander of the Han army, the two discussed the conditions, and swore to each other as a witness to heaven and earth, Zhu Jun pulled out his waist knife and stuck it on the ground, saying that when Qiu Liju withdrew, the Han army definitely just crossed the position of his war knife.

Qiu Liju was relieved.

So on July 17, Qiu Liju led his men to leave Feiru quickly and fled in the direction of Liucheng.

Zhu Jun kept his promise and did not let his army pursue him, and then led the Han army to recover Feiru, and obtained more than 100,000 Han Hu people who were disarmed and incapacitated.

And Nanlou was originally very sad and angry, because he failed to kill Qiu Liju.

But Guo Peng comforted him, and said that Wuyan's subordinates would follow him from now on, as compensation given to him by the Great Han, and hoped that he would consider the overall situation, and now was indeed not the time to turn against Qiu Liju.

When they have enough strength, they will go to exterminate Qiu Liju, and now they are just making peace with him.

Qiu Liju betrayed Dahan once, Dahan will no longer trust him, so in the future, Dahan will definitely find a way to exterminate him, and now he needs Nanlou and Dahan to work together to accumulate strength.

Guo Peng also said that he would go to the table and ask the imperial court to canonize Nanlou as Karasuma Youdanyu, so that Nanlou would lead the Karasuma tribe west of Youbeiping, and Qiu Liju would lead the Karasuma tribe east of Youbeiping, so as to realize the situation of Karasuma's east-west division.

He will be stationed in Shanggu, give Nanlou enough help and confidence, help Nanlou stabilize the situation, and be on an equal footing with Qiu Liju, and Qiu Liju will not be able to harm and threaten Nanlou.

Nanlou shed tears and said that he would always be grateful for Guo Peng's kindness, and as long as Guo Peng needed it, he would not give up.

After Qiu Liju's problem was dealt with, Guo Peng found Guan Yu and Zhang Fei with a guilty look on his face and expressed his apologies to them.

"In this situation, I can't kill Qiu Liju to avenge Senior Brother Xuande, Yun Chang, Yide, I haven't fulfilled my promise to you, I'm sorry for you."

After that, Guo Peng saluted Guan Yu and Zhang Feifei.

Guan Yu was shocked and immediately returned the salute, Zhang Fei was a little at a loss, seeing Guan Yu bow and return the salute, he did the same.

"Don't dare! The general avenged his old master, took the lead in fighting the rebels without retreating, and did his best, how could Guan blame the general? To put it in detail, this incident is inseparable from our failure to appease the army's morale in time, which caused damage to the general's subordinates, and according to military regulations, we should be beheaded. ”

Guan Yu said with tears: "General Meng does not give up, Yu and Yide have to avenge the old lord on the battlefield, although they have not done their full work, but the matter has come to this point, it is no longer possible for manpower to do it, the general will do things, Yu bows to the service, Yu is willing to follow the general to fight on the battlefield, this body is driven by the general, I only hope that the general will not forget the hatred of the old master!" ”

After speaking, Guan Yu bowed to the ground.

Zhang Fei also cried, and bowed to the ground with Guan Yu.

"General! It's the same with flying! May the general never forget the enmity of the old master! ”

Guo Peng sighed deeply, helped Guan Zhang and the others up, stroked their backs, and said with a sad face: "Senior brother came to vote, but I can't protect senior brother, I don't know how to face the teacher, you can understand me, I am ashamed, Yun Chang, Yide, I will live up to you two in this life." ”

Then, based on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's excellent performance in this battle, Guo Peng appointed Guan Yu as a military marquis, leading 500 troops, and Zhang Fei as Guan Yu's deputy.

Earlier, Guo Peng sent people to find Liu Bei's body, sent it back to his hometown of Zhuo County, and gave Liu Bei's clan some compensation, and this time he sent people to carry ten Karasuma heads to Zhuo County to pay tribute to Liu Bei.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei thanked Guo Peng again.
