Chapter 676: Pacifying Jiangxia County
Chen Dao's words are very clear, if you want Huang Shot to live, you must dedicate Xiling City to the Liangzhou Army: if you want to defend Xiling City, then Huang Shot will also be certain to die!
Huang Shot and Xiling City, one is a person and the other is a thing; One is the only son of his Huang Zu, and the other is the old nest that his Huang Zu has been running for many years. However, between the two, only one remains.
For others, it's most likely ...... A natural son is more important than a city. However, for his Huang Zu, the importance of Xiling City is no less than that of his only son.
Compare the two benefits, whichever is heavier; The lesser of two evils! However, in the depths of his Huang Zu's heart, Huang Shot and Xiling City were of the same importance, even ...... In a sense, Huang Shot is not as important as Xiling City.
Without Huang Shot, he Huang Zu will have a new son; However, once he loses Xiling City, he Huang Zu really has no place to stand, and he really becomes a prisoner in the real sense!
Because, Huang Zu knew very well in his heart that with the consistent style of the chariot general Li Mu, even if he Huang Zu surrendered to the Liangzhou army, even if he could get an official and a half position, he would never get any real power again.
Since then, isn't his Huang Zu's dream of being the "Emperor of the Soil" going to die and be interrupted? This is definitely not what he Huang Zu wants to see. What's more, once he, Huang Zu, joins the Liangzhou Army, the entire Huang family in Jiangxia County will also lose its former glory and will be disintegrated by the Liangzhou Army, which is also what he Huang Zu does not want to see.
However, if you want to watch your only son die in the hands of the Liangzhou Army, and die in front of his eyes, it is difficult for him Huang Zu to be ruthless. Really...... The choice between the fish and the bear's paw is really difficult to have both!
Huang Zu pondered for a long time, and it seemed that he had a decision in his heart, and it seemed that there was no decision. The two ideas of leaving Huang Jie and keeping Xiling City have always been in Huang Zu's mind, and it is difficult to determine whether one or the other will grow.
"If Huang is to serve in the Liangzhou Army, how will Li Junhou arrange for Huang? Can Huang still become the guard of Xiling City and the guard of Jiangxia County? ”
It wasn't until a long time later that Huang Zu came back to his senses from deep thought. Immediately, Huang Zu looked at Chen Zhi's direction, and hesitated with a bit of hope: "If Li Junhou can let Huang continue to control Jiangxia County, Huang will sincerely serve the Liangzhou Army, and he will not dare to have two hearts for the rest of his life!" ”
Before Huang Zu's words fell, Chen Zhi reacted, Huang Zu wanted to bargain, wanted to continue to control the real power, and wanted to continue to be his "soil emperor". Hearing that Huang Zu was very hateful and didn't know how to bargain whether he was alive or dead, Chen Zhi was immediately furious!
"Huang Zu!"
As soon as Huang Zu's words fell, Chen Zhi sneered a few times in his heart, and then, he raised the spear in his hand, pointed in the direction of Huang Zu, and scolded in a deep voice full of hatred and anger: "You don't want to be delusional!" Liu Biao treats you well, but you are yang and yin who violate Xiling City, intending to achieve the trend of separation. How can my lord not know about the despicable deeds of your Huang Zu? How can my lord ...... Let you continue to blame Jiangxia County again? If you know the times, you should open the city and surrender earlier, and my lord can spare your life, otherwise...... When the city of Xiling City is broken, it will be the day when your Huang Zu is in a different place! ”
As expected, Li Mu would never ...... Let him Huang Zu have real power. That being the case, why did he, Huang Zu, join the Liangzhou Army?
It turned out that this was Huang Zu's thought after thinking about it for a long time. If so, he Huang Zu...... can continue to control Jiangxia County, and can have the same real power as before; He, Huang Zu, didn't mind serving under Li Mu. In this way, he can not only save Huang Jie's life, but also keep the real power of Jiangxia County.
Hearing what Chen Zhi said, Huang Zu knew in his heart that surrendering to the Liangzhou army had become impossible! He Huang Zu, he doesn't want to be an inconspicuous petty official with no real power!
Now, Huang Zu finally has a decision in his heart!
Then, Huang Zu looked in the direction of Chen Zhi and asked, "General Chen, where is my son Huang Jie now?" ”
Chen Zhi didn't answer, just nodded behind him. After three or five breaths, Huang Zhu was escorted out of the Liangzhou army formation.
Seeing that Huang Shot was embarrassed and miserable, Huang Zu's heart was like a knife. The iron and stone heart is like Huang Zu, and when he saw his son's desolate appearance, he was also a little moved, of course, it was only a dozen breaths of grief!
Huang Zu looked up to the sky and sighed, and he already had a plan in his heart. Immediately, Huang Zu looked at the direction of Huang Jue, and shouted in a solemn voice: "As a father, as the Taishou of Jiangxia County and the general of Xiling City, it is natural that he is ...... We must not live up to the high expectations of the lord and the expectations of the people in the city! For the father, he will live and die with Xiling City! Look at my son...... can understand the father, don't blame the father's cruelty! ”
Huang Zhu naturally understood the meaning of Huang Zu's words, and laughed bitterly a few times, and then, in the direction of Xiling City, he knelt on the ground, choked and said, "Father, take care!" Kid go! ”
"Slash!"
Chen Zhi naturally understood what Huang Zu meant, and immediately shouted in a deep voice without the slightest hesitation.
A soldier of the Liangzhou Army stepped forward, waved the sharp blade in his hand, and cut off the head of Huang Shot with a knife. Ignorance...... When Huang shot to death, did he realize that Huang Zu could obviously save his life.
"Huang Zu old horseman! What you just said is just a pretext! ”
Chen Zhi scolded with hatred: "Tiger poison doesn't eat children!" But for your own selfish desires, you disregard the life and death of your only son, you are really hard-hearted, and you are not as good as a beast! You old puppet...... How can you be called a father? How can you survive in the world? How can you be so brazen? ”
"Huang Zu Lao'er...... Killing Birds and Beasts...... Die to shame! ”
As soon as Chen Dao's words fell, the entire Liangzhou army array sounded a long-lasting, tsunami-like scolding sound.
The moment Huang shot to death, Huang Zu regretted it after all.
Hearing Chen Dao's scolding, hearing the scolding of the Liangzhou army, and seeing the disdainful looks of the soldiers on the left and right, Huang Zu was furious, and finally lost his mind. Huang Zu immediately issued an order to order the army to go out of the city to meet the enemy.
Among the 40,000 troops in Xiling City, in addition to the 10,000 who defended the city, Huang Zu sent 30,000 people out of the city. The Jingzhou army has neither the will to fight nor the morale, and the military spirit has been completely lost, so how can it be the opponent of the Flying Leopard Legion's foot cavalry?
The two armies fought fiercely outside Xiling City, and after half an hour of fighting, the 30,000 Jingzhou army was annihilated, and no one survived. On the other hand, the Flying Leopard Legion only suffered more than 2,000 casualties!
Huang Zu defended Xiling City for a day, after all, it was ...... When the Liangzhou army broke through the city, they chose to kill themselves.
The day after the Liangzhou army broke through Xiling City, the three cities of Exian, Xia Pheasant and Qichun in Jiangxia County surrendered when they heard the wind!
At this point, the Liangzhou Army controlled the entire Jiangxia County and controlled the strategic artery of Yangzhou in the east!
As Li Mu said, Sun Ce will not be able to avenge his father with his own hands throughout his life!
