Chapter 126: Guan Yu's Temporary Surrender (II)

"Now that I am in a Jedi, I should regard death as my home, and I have to say that I have descended?" In the face of Gao Shun's persuasion, Guan Yu laughed angrily, in his opinion, Gao Shun's persuasion was really an insult to himself.

"The public thinks he is loyal, but he doesn't know that seeking death at this moment is really disloyal and unjust!" Gao Shun laughed.

Guan Yu has always been proud and attaches the most importance to his reputation. At this time, hearing that Gao Shun said that he was disloyal and unjust, Guan Yu was furious, only to see him sneer and say: "Let's say, how am I disloyal, and how am I unjust?" ”

"Now that the prince is dead, there are three sins." Gao Shun said loudly, "When Liu made Jun and Gong righteous, he swore to live and die together, and now he makes Jun defeated, and Gong is killed in battle. Now Liu Yuanjun's family is the income of our army, it is the time of loneliness and helplessness, the public is the brother of Liu Yuanjun, that is, the uncle of the second lady, and should bear the responsibility of taking care of it. Gongwu is outstanding, and he is also familiar with the history of the scriptures, and he does not want to help the Han family with Liu Zhijun Kuang, and wants to die in vain to become a horseman's bravery, and his three crimes are also. ”

Guan Yu looked disapproving at first, but as Gao Shun's words gradually deepened, the cold sweat on Guan Yu's forehead became more and more.

He had to admit that what Gao Shun said was quite reasonable.

If he dies in battle, the oath of the former peach orchard will become a floating cloud. The two sisters-in-law were captured by Cao Jun, if they were rashly sent to death, what kind of miserable treatment would the two sisters-in-law be?

Guan Yu was sweating profusely, and he had only thought of using death to fulfill his loyalty. But if you think about it carefully, if you die in battle like this, is it really an act of loyalty?

Breaking the past vow to live and die together, and ignoring the two sisters-in-law in danger, is this also loyal?

"In that case, what do you want me to do?" Although Guan Yu's tone at this time was still very tough, and he didn't seem to be moved by Gao Shun's words, Gao Shun noticed that this Guan Second Master was not as confident as before at this time.

"Now there are soldiers of my lord Cao Mengde on all sides, and if the prince does not surrender, he will die. The so-called death is useless, if you surrender to my lord, and at the same time inquire about Liu Zhijun's message, once you know where it is, you will go to it. In this way, the first public can protect the second lady, the two do not break the Taoyuan covenant, and the third can stay useful. With these three pences, the public thinks about it. Gao Shun said eloquently.

When Guan Yu heard this, he fell into a deep groan. Now that he is separated from Liu Bei, he really doesn't know where his eldest brother will go, and he needs to find out in many ways. However, although Gao Shun kept saying that he would let him inquire about Liu Bei's whereabouts, and once he knew about it, he would throw himself into it, but how credible are these words? Even if he only temporarily joined the Cao army, he was still in the Cao camp, and when he learned his brother's whereabouts in the future, would he really be able to come and go freely?

The most important thing is that Fang Cai's words are just Gao Shun's own opinions, and Cao Cao probably doesn't know it, which makes Guan Yu feel uneasy. If he wants to resign in the future, what if Cao Cao pushes it off with reasons such as "this is Gao Shun's nonsense, I don't know"?

"If you want me to surrender, you must let me see Cao Sikong to discuss in person." After thinking about it, it is better to talk to Cao Cao in person to reassure Guan Yu.

Talk to Cao Cao in person? Gao Shun was stunned when he heard this, obviously Guan Yu's request was not within his previous expectations. But it's not strange to think about it, I'm just a general under Cao Cao's account, I'm afraid Guan Yu doesn't believe that he can be the master.

Belch...... In fact, I really can't call the shots.

Well, talk to Cao Cao, talk to Cao Cao. After recovering Xuzhou, Gao Shun asked Guan Yu to go with him to Xuchang to meet Cao Cao and negotiate surrender.

Liu Bei's two wives were both in the army, and it was expected that Guan Yu would not do anything on the way, so Gao Shun did not make any moves to restrain his freedom, such as binding, but treated him with courtesy.

Xiahoudun felt a little unhappy about this, when Guan Yu and Zhao Yun fought each other earlier, and both were defeated, Xiahoudun made an oath with Guan Yu not to die. It's just that now the party Zhao Yun didn't say anything, and he didn't fail to express his clear opposition, and if Guan Yu was really willing to surrender, it would be a great fortune for Cao Cao.

Private ** righteousness, Xiahou Tang still has a clear distinction, so he didn't go out of his way to find trouble with Guan Yu.

And Cao Cao also received Gao Shun's letter early and learned the specific content of his conversation with Guan Yu. Cao Cao is naturally very happy about this, and he is expected to get Guan Yu! That's Guan Yu Guan Yunchang! Although his subordinates are already fierce generals, who would think that they have a lot of talents, let alone a top fierce general like Guan Yu.

As for Gao Shun's words about letting Guan Yu explore where Liu Bei is, once he learns about it, Cao Cao can completely understand it. The so-called impromptu response, negotiation should be like this, as long as Guan Yu can be put into his account, he will always have the means to slowly consume his loyalty to Liu Bei.

————————————————————————————————

"I heard that Yun Chang came to vote, I am really overjoyed!" As soon as Cao Cao saw Guan Yu, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically.

I have to say that Cao Cao's speech is very level, and Guan Yu has not said that it will definitely fall, and Cao Cao came up with the sentence "I heard that Yun Chang came to vote", and grasped the initiative at the beginning.

Guan Yu was really a little depressed, but he quickly adjusted his mood and said, "Forgive me, Guan Yu has not said a word of surrender so far...... Moreover, even if it falls, it is temporary...... I also hope that Sikong can allow me three things, otherwise Guan Yu would rather die even if he bears the name of injustice. ”

Alas, what is so good about Liu Bei, in terms of power strategy, army management, and governance, which one of his items is comparable to his own?

"What three things?" But lamenting is lamenting, now that there is the possibility of including Guan Yu in the account, he has to fight for it.

"First, I have sworn with the emperor's uncle to support the Han family, and now I will only descend to the Han Emperor, not to the Duke of Cao. The second sister-in-law asked for support for the emperor's uncle, and Cao Ying was not allowed to come to the door to disturb him. Three, but knowing the whereabouts of Uncle Liu Huang, no matter how many miles away, I should resign. One of the three is missing, and Guan Yu refuses to surrender. Guan Yu said word by word, with an extremely serious attitude.

"Liu Bei and I are both Han Chen, what else do you say about surrendering to the Han Emperor, could it be that you were a thief before?" Although Cao Cao thought so in his heart, he didn't show anything on his face.

But it's really a headache, whether it's surrendering to the Han Emperor or supporting the second sister-in-law, these are not problems, but the last condition is a bit difficult. Although Cao Cao is confident, as long as he gives himself time, he will definitely be able to win Guan Yu's heart. But the question is, if he agrees to Guan Yu's conditions today, and tomorrow he knows Liu Bei's whereabouts and resigns to himself, how can it be good?

Backtracking? That's not right.

Guo Jia on the side saw through Cao Cao's mind and knew why he was worried, so he stepped forward and said to Guan Yu: "General Guan values righteousness, and we admire him." However, what General Guan said is of no benefit to my lord. If General Guan knows the whereabouts of Xuande Gong tomorrow and leaves my lord, why should my lord accept General Guan's ear. ”

"If so, I hope Sikong will treat my sister-in-law well, and I will ask for death." Guan Yu sighed lightly, what Guo Jia said is not reasonable, for a general of a defeated army, such a request can be described as unreasonable, even if he is in Cao Cao's position, it is estimated that he will not agree to such a condition.

It seems that he has only one death. The safety of the second sister-in-law can only be pinned on Cao Cao's conscience. As for violating the oath of Taoyuan, in the troubled times, I am afraid there is only helplessness.

"General Guan, I have a suggestion, not only General Guan is willing to do it." Guo Jiazi ignored Guan Yu's words of seeking death, only to see him smile slightly, and said slowly, "The Ming lord recruits good ministers, which is not only for the righteousness of the world, but also for personal interests, and the same is true for good ministers to take refuge in the Ming lord." Although the general is temporarily voting for my lord, if he does not make an inch of merit and leaves, it will be a loss of righteousness for the general and no profit for my lord. My lord can promise to let the general leave after he finds Liu Xuande's whereabouts, but before that, the general must make a contribution to Cao's army. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, his eyes lit up. What Guo Jia said means that after Guan Yu finds Liu Bei, if he does not make meritorious service, he cannot leave without authorization, and he must wait until he has made meritorious service before leaving.

In this way, you will have plenty of time, after all, the merits of war are not easy to obtain. During this time, Cao Cao was confident enough to make Guan Yu completely return to his heart.

Guan Yu pondered for a moment, and felt that this was the best proposal for both parties, so he nodded and agreed.
