Chapter 8 The heart of the whole army, Liu Yao refuses to surrender

Under the city of Fuguan, the envoy of the Wei army was dragged up by Chen She and thrown off the wall, Rao is Chen She was worried that the messenger would fall to his death, and deliberately threw him on the soft and damp mound under the city, the envoy of the Wei army did not want to die, but he also fell and broke his leg and was in pain, and he was beaten with twenty military staffs, and he was humiliated by this, which was more uncomfortable than killing himself with a knife, and he got up and limped towards Wei Ying, and scolded Liu Yao Xiaoer while walking.

In Fucheng Pass, after Chen She dragged out the envoy of the Wei army, Liu Yao opened the holy decree of Liu Chan in his hand, quickly browsed it, and handed it to Zhang Zun, Zhang Zun took it and looked at it, and said: "Sure enough, it is a decree, Your Majesty has issued an edict to abdicate and surrender Deng Ai, and ordered me to surrender the Wei army." ”

Liu Yao took the decree and strode out, saying Zhang Zundao: "Follow me!" ”

I saw Liu Yao standing at the head of the city, gathered a large number of soldiers beside him, all of them looked at Liu Yao with blank eyes, just now the Wei army envoy brought the news of His Majesty's holy decree, one spread ten, ten to hundred, and soon all the soldiers knew, many soldiers speculated how His Majesty's holy decree came to the hands of the Wei army envoy, whether His Majesty had surrendered, but most of the soldiers couldn't believe it, maybe it was the trick of the Wei army.

Liu Yao looked around at the expectant eyes of a group of soldiers, paused, and shouted, "Your Majesty, he has already surrendered the Wei army!" ”

Suddenly, the soldiers exploded and exchanged ears, and there was a tendency to blow up the camp without saying a word, but fortunately, the remaining two thousand soldiers had already experienced the bloody battle of the Wei army's siege of the city together, and they were already robes, otherwise they really couldn't say whether it would cause the Xiao camp.

Liu Yao waved his hand to signal quiet, and the soldiers were no longer noisy, they were all grassroots people, and the meat eaters were the decision-making level, and the fate depended on how His Highness arranged it.

Seeing that the soldiers were silent and no longer noisy, Liu Yao then shouted:

"I know, some of you have retreated, Your Majesty has surrendered, what kind of battle do we have to fight, and some people will be unwilling, we have fought for so long, so many people have died, from Prime Minister Zhuge to General Jiang, the Northern Expedition has exhausted the vitality of Shuzhong again and again, your brothers and fathers, may have never returned with the Prime Minister and the Great General's Northern Expedition, you must be entangled in your hearts, now even Your Majesty has surrendered, where should we go!"

The soldiers all lowered their heads and pondered, and some veterans even secretly wept, yes, they went on the Northern Expedition again and again, the elder brother of the family died, and the younger brother went to the battlefield, the father died, and the son went to the battle, everything they did was in vain, now the home has been occupied by the Wei army, and the parents, wives and children will be under the rule of the Wei army in the future, and the Wei army has been fighting for so many years, I don't know how the Wei army will treat them, their brothers and fathers all died in the hands of the Wei army, and now let them be Wei people, how can they accept it.

Even Zhang Zun fell into deep thought, and from time to time there were soldiers muttering in a low voice: "Yes, Your Majesty has surrendered, where should we go." ”

Some soldiers even directly questioned Liu Yao: "Your Highness, what do you say we should do, whether it is a battle or surrender, we listen to you!" ”

Liu Yao nodded and paused, and then continued: "In the past, the ancestor Gao was only the chief of a pavilion in Pei County, and the White Snake Rebellion led a group of brothers to establish the Han Dynasty for four hundred years, and the Huns bullied us, and we swallowed our anger, but then we beat them to the house, Wang Mang usurped the Han family, and the battle of Kunyang descended to the heavens and punished Wang Mang's camp, and helped the martial master to recapture the country, and now Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, the first emperor Ben Buyi, and still raised troops to continue the unification, and now His Majesty has surrendered, but is the country dead?" No! I didn't die before, and I won't die now, and I still have you! We can all live, and so can the big man! ”

"What are you in the army for? Some are for the sake of making contributions, some are for mixing bowls of rice, everyone has their own dreams, mixing an official and a half-job, going home to get a little girl, and giving birth to a baby in a house. There may be some who are forced to come, and there are no ideas, but you have to live! ”

When you return to your hometown, you will definitely marry a hundred and eighty young women, give birth to a bunch of sons, and grow endless food, and the ideals of the people at the bottom are the most simple, but it is difficult for them to even survive now.

Some soldiers have already begun to ask Liu Yao: "Your Highness, can we still go home alive?" We don't want to be Wei people, if we kill so many of them, will they bypass us? ”

Liu Yao was very satisfied, what he wanted was this effect, Liu Yao continued: "General Guan Suo has brought troops from Nanzhong to help, and the general is still holding on to the Sword Pavilion, believe me, I will definitely take you home safely, you can choose to surrender the Wei army, and be enslaved and driven by them like a dog, but are they the things that our big men do?" In the past, the Wei army could still ensure that you had a bowl of rice to eat, but now that the capital is dead, why do they want to surrender their pawns, our heads are their last military exploits, are you willing to give the Wei army their hands to offer their military exploits? ”

"I don't want to!"

"I don't want to!"

There were already soldiers whose eyes were hot, and this highness said that he could take them to live, and now they had no choice, and soon some soldiers took the lead and shouted:

"King of Stability!"

"King of Stability!"

More soldiers joined in, and soon the mood was contagious to the whole army.

"King of Stability!"

"King of Stability!"

Liu Yao motioned for the soldiers to stop, and suddenly the shouting stopped.

"You guys, all go to sleep and rest now, the Wei army will not attack during the day today, rest and recuperate to take you to escape."

In the stunned eyes of the soldiers, Liu Yao added again:

"Yes, it's to run for your life, if any brother falls behind, no one will wait for you."

The soldiers left in twos and threes, sleeping and resting was nothing more than leaning on the women's wall at the edge of the city to rest for a while, and some soldiers were not very relieved and still couldn't fall asleep, looking out of the city from time to time.

"Zhang Zun, you go to rest first, take a few soldiers at night, and when it gets dark, all the general's war horses will cut off their front legs."

"No!" Although Zhang Zun was surprised in his heart, but now he seems to be headed by Liu Yao, but he didn't ask too much, there was a shortage of war horses in the Shu Han army, and only the military marquis and lieutenants had war horses available, and cut off the front legs of all the war horses, I am afraid that these generals can only walk with the soldiers.

"Chen She, you take a hundred soldiers, collect all the forage for the war horses in the city, and tie them into straw men, how much can you tie!" Liu Yao instructed Chen She next to him again.

"No!" Chen She turned and left.

The order was issued, Liu Yao also went down to the city to rest, these days worried about the Wei army attacking the city, but he didn't sleep well, he was really a little tired, and he used the temple to temporarily build a general's mansion in the city to rest for a while, and retreated at night to recuperate.
