Chapter 44 Wei Chiming surrendered the whole country Liu Xuande settled in the three counties

Since Liu Bei promised to send Wei Chi Zhan back to the city, he would not miss the appointment, during which Lu Bu and Zhang Ren both came to suggest that they could not return to the city as a captain Chi Zhan, and letting Wei Chi Zhan return to the city was like letting a tiger return to the mountain. However, Liu Bei was unmoved, and said proudly: "I Liu Bei can catch him once and he can catch Wei Chi Zhan twice, but people can't be unbelievable, and I believe in Wei Chi Zhan's words." ”

So no one made any more suggestions, but according to Liu Bei's request, after Wei Chiming and other civil and military officers arrived at the east city wall, they escorted all the prisoners to the east city gate, so that Yu Chiming and others could see clearly.

When Liu Bei saw Wei Chi Zhan away, a scout hurried from the Jingjue City in the east.

"The lord, the general of the Gumo country, Thoshuai, attacked the Jingjue City with 2,000 cavalry, but General Huang repelled it, and General Huang sent a special message to the lord, and General Huang also said that if a large army comes, General Huang will defend to the death, and inform the lord, so that the lord can go west with peace of mind!"

Liu Bei said that after he understood, he would send the scouts down!

………………………………………………………

When Wei Chiming and the others clearly saw on the east city wall that the cavalry under the city was their previous cavalry who had gone out of the city to fight, Yu Chiming suddenly collapsed as if he had lost all his support.

However, the things that irritated his nerves were not over, and when the army of captives was slowly taken away, there was still one person left in the city, and it was Wei Chi Zhan. At this time, Wei Chizhan was no longer tied up.

Before in Liu Bei's military account, when Lu Bu, Zhang Ren and others suggested, he stood aside, but at that time he surrendered sincerely, and he surrendered for a purpose, after a battle on the eve of the war, Wei Chi Zhan knew that it was only a matter of time before Khotan was captured by Liu Bei, and at the same time remembered the words of Liu Bei's envoy before the war, Yu Chi Zhan was afraid that the Yu Chi clan would be wiped out from now on, so he took the initiative to surrender, and persuaded Yu Chi Ming in exchange for the survival of the entire Yu Chi clan, at the same time, it is also the most important thing, mainly he entered Liu Bei's army, so in the future, The entire Yu Chi clan can still continue to be beautiful! But when Wei Chi Zhan heard Liu Bei's words, Wei Chi Zhan was convinced and sincerely believed that Liu Bei was the master!

At this time, Wei Chi Zhan slowly rode his horse to the gate of the city, while at the same time, Liu Bei's army pulled out the camp and slowly retreated to the back, until it was ten miles away from the city wall, and then slowly stopped!

"Your Majesty, Wei Chi was defeated in battle, and I am here to ask for death!" Wei Chizhan dismounted, knelt on the ground, and shouted to the city wall!

Wei Chiming looked at Yu Chi Zhan, and then at the surrounding ministers, and then said listlessly and slowly: "Open the city gate and let him in!" ”

The city gate slowly opened, Wei Chizhan got on his horse and slowly walked into the west city.

When the city gate was slowly closed again, Wei Chizhan saw a group of ministers and Wei Chiming, and at the same time, Wei Chizhan also completely described the entire battle process to everyone, so that everyone knew that from the moment Liu Bei appeared, they had fallen into Liu Bei's scheme.

After describing the entire campaign. Wei Chiming asked: "Brother Zhan, Liu Bei asked you to come back this time, but let you come to persuade you to surrender, now that I am weak, can I recruit the young people of the whole city to fight with Liu Bei again?" ”

"Your Majesty, a certain has surrendered to Liu Bei, Liu Bei is the male lord, all the Han people who came to my Western Regions in the past were protected, although they occasionally killed the monarchs of various countries, but they still have the right to govern all countries, however, this Liu Bei, from Shanshan to my Khotan, has received all the governance rights in his hands, and sent officials to govern all places! The royal families of the two countries were slaughtered because of the rebellion against Liu Bei's army, so I surrendered to Liu Bei, which is to ask Liu Bei to keep the name of my Weichi clan. And leave the names of the people of Khotan! Brother Chen, not talented, ashamed of Brother Wang, ashamed of the ancestors of the Wei Chi family, but this is the only way out at the moment! Please also ask Brother Wang to decide, if you want to defend to the end, the younger brother is willing to lead the troops again and die on the city wall! ”

Hearing Liu Bei's strategy, troops, and the strength of his generals, the ministers had no intention of fighting with Liu Bei, and then heard that Wei Chi Zhan personally persuaded Wei Chi Ming to surrender, their eyes flashed, and they looked like they wanted to say something!

Wei Chiming looked at the crowd of civil and military personnel, and when he saw the flashing eyes of the civil and military forces, he knew that Xicheng could no longer hold on.

"Brother Zhan, you go out of the city and tell Liu Bei that my lieutenant Chi Ming is willing to lead the cities of Khotan and the people to surrender to the Han Dynasty and accept the rule of the Han Dynasty! Please also take pity on my people in Khotan, and don't disturb my people in Khotan! Yu Chi Ming led all the Yu Chi clan to be disposed of by the capital! ”

After agreeing on the time to open the city gate, Wei Chizhan went out of the city and rode back to Liu Bei's military tent!

"Lord, I am fortunate to live up to my mission."

After that, Wei Chiming led a group of civil and military forces and the army of the city to open the city gate, kneeling outside the city, and after Xu Huang led the Leopard Tao army to watch all the guards of the city, Liu Bei led the Black Flag Army into the city slowly!

At this point, the half-month offensive and defensive battle in Khotan came to an end, and the final result was that Liu Bei finally took Khotan after losing more than 3,000 soldiers!

Early the next morning, Liu Bei summoned a group of civil and military officers in the Khotanese King's Palace, demoted officials, and Wei Chiming and Wei Chi Zhan!

"Ladies and gentlemen, thanks to all of you, thank you again! ..............." Liu Bei got to the point after being polite with everyone.

"This conquest in Khotan, although the battle was won, but our army also suffered a lot of losses, fortunately, our army captured more than 8,000 cavalry, more than 5,000 sword and shield soldiers, all of which can be charged into our army. It was decided to continue the expansion of the army. ”

"Gongming divided the Leopard Tao Army into two, Gongming led one and Yan Liang led one, and then each selected 2,500 people from the 5,000 sword and shield soldiers who surrendered. Gongming still led the Leopard Tao Army, and Yan Liang re-commanded an army called the Xiaoguo Army, Yan Liang was the commander, and Wei Chi Zhan was the deputy. ”

Xu Huang, Yan Liang, and Wei Chi fought out of the class and promised!

"Feng first selected 1,000 elites from the army, and Zhang Ren selected 2,000 elites from the army, handed them over to Liao Hua to command, and went to the pro-guard army. Then, Feng Xian and Zhang Ren selected soldiers from the soldiers to make up the number of 5,000! ”

Lu Bu, Zhang Ren and Liao Hua all made promises!

"The remaining 2,000 cavalry were taken prisoner and sent to General Huang to merge into Huang Zhong's Long Xiang Army to form the first mixed cavalry brigade, stationed in the three places of Jimo, Jingjue, and Humi! The scouts informed Huang Zhong and Gan Ning, and asked General Huang to send troops to garrison the country of Humi a month later, and Gan Ning led the Shence army to aid Khotan a month later! ”

"Where's Pris?"

"The subordinates are here." Pu Lixuan hurriedly walked out from behind the crowd and knelt down in front of Liu Bei!

"Puri, are you willing to work for me Liu Bei?" Liu Bei asked with a slight smile!

"Lord, a certain willing, a certain willing to serve the Lord!"

"In this case, a certain appointment of you as the county guard of Khotan County, in charge of the government affairs of Khotan County, as for the county officials, a certain will be equipped for you one by one. Are you willing? ”

"The lord, the subordinates are willing to die for the lord's liver and brain." Puri said tremblingly!

"Don't you die, you just need to govern Khotan well! At present, there are four cities in Khotan, namely Xicheng, Yutian City, Moyu City, and Yongji City, and you are ordered to build three more cities in the southwest of Moyu City, the south of Yongji City, and the northeast of Yutian City, which are respectively Yongnian County, Yongxing County and Yongqing County! And vigorously develop agriculture, animal husbandry, forestry, commerce, handicrafts, etc., and strive to develop the population! ”

"Subordinates obey."

"Wei Chiming, you have surrendered, are you willing to use it for me?"

"What? Most of the protectors are willing to appoint me Wei Chiming? Aren't you afraid that my lieutenant Chiming will rebel against you again? Wei Chiming asked unconfidently!

"I dare to use your cousin as a general, let alone your call? Would you like to? ”

"A certain lieutenant Chi Ming visited the lord and was willing to serve the lord."

"In this case, I ordered you to be the county guard of Shanshan County and take office immediately, but you can only bring your wives and concubines, and the rest of the clansmen will stay in Xicheng! After you arrived in Shanshan County, you will make a good handover with the current county Shoutianfeng, and vigorously develop agriculture, animal husbandry, forestry, commerce, handicrafts, etc., and strive to develop the population. ”

"The subordinates receive the order, and the clansmen are properly arranged, and they will leave for Shanshan County." Wei Chiming replied, so far, Yu Chiming has no other thoughts, the children have been taken hostage by Liu Bei, and he actually wants to go to Shanshan County to serve, the most important thing is that he does not have any military power in his hands, and from then on, he can only honestly take the lead for Liu Bei.

"There's no need to be in such a hurry, when it's arranged, an army will be sent to escort you all the way!" Liu Bei looked at Yu Chiming and smiled slightly, and said. Seeing Wei Chiming's eyes, Liu Bei knew that this person no longer had any intention of resisting. He let down his guard against Wei Chiming! Of course, for all the appointed officials, Liu Bei will send them to supervise in detail!
