Chapter 436: Nanzhong Tentative
Newspaper~"
Gao Ding looked numbly at the herald rushing in front of him, and only reacted after a while, frowning: "What's the matter?" ”
"The enemy general Guan Xing asks to see!" The herald bowed.
"Guan Xing?" E Huan raised his eyebrows: "Who else?" ”
"There are only a few pro-soldiers." The herald bowed.
"The bud and the woman aren't there?" E Huan clenched Fang Tian's halberd and said.
"I haven't seen it." The herald shook his head.
"Lord, go and cut him down for me!" E Huan came to the spirit, he was about to be driven crazy in the past few days, and he was holding back a resentment in his chest, and now Guan Xing came to see him alone, instinctively, E Huan wanted to kill him first, and then he would take this breath first.
"No!" E Huan is reckless, others are not reckless, and the nimble-minded general hurriedly stopped: "This person came alone, I'm afraid it is not a provocation, why don't you see it?" ”
The military food has been consumed relatively quickly in the past two days, mainly because the military spirit has begun to disperse, and people with a discerning eye can see that Gao Ding is now rushing back to rescue Yuewang, and whether he can get out of Jianning completely is a problem.
If at this time, Gao Ding is willing to sit down and talk, or to surrender to Liu Yi directly, then they can also find a decent reason for themselves, so as not to bear the reputation of betrayal.
Gao Ding snorted coldly, but did not refuse, waved his hand and said, "Let him come over, I want to see what he has to say?" ”
"Whoa!"
The herald agreed, turned and left, and quickly brought Guan Xing over.
"The last general, Guan Xing, has seen the king!" Originally, Gao Ding was ready to face a high-spirited Guan Xing, but when he really saw it, Guan Xing did not show too much publicity, and gave a standard military salute to Gao Ding without humility or arrogance.
Gao Ding glanced at Guan Xing a few times, nodded and said, "General Guan came to me, I don't know what to say?" ”
"It's not the one who wants to see the monarch of the house, it's my military advisor, Ma Yan!" Guan Xing shook his head and said, he didn't want to see Gao Ding too much, especially Gao Ding looked unlucky now, and he was not interested.
"Why not Liu Yi?" Gao Ding frowned.
Guan Xing looked at Gao Ding with some surprise, and suddenly didn't know how to answer, Ma Jian told him to try not to provoke him, but if Liu Yi was halfway through the battle and suddenly threw it down to do other things, would it hurt the other party's self-esteem? Or rather...... Do you deserve it?
"Tinghou is in danger of the safety of the three armies, so it is not easy to come forward." Guan Xing thought of a good reason and said.
Gao Ding snorted, this reason obviously did not satisfy him, but at the moment he didn't seem to have the confidence to talk to the other party about the conditions, he really wanted Liu Yi to come to see him, in case the other party didn't agree, if he turned his face directly, it was naturally not what Gao Ding wanted.
"Okay, then let him come!" Gao Ding felt that he was already very good at the other party.
Guan Xing looked at Gao Ding with a mentally retarded expression, and repeated the other party's words once: "Come here?" ”
"Not bad!" Gao nodded his head.
"The military advisor said, if the prince of the palace is willing to see him, he can set up a meeting between the two armies, and each side will bring four people, if he is unwilling, then he should not say it!" Guan Xing shook his head, too lazy to continue talking nonsense with the other party, it was very tiring like that, how could this Gao Ding not have any self-knowledge at all? After speaking, he didn't wait for Gao Ding to reply, he left directly, and the soldiers around him were a little slow to react, seeing that Gao Ding didn't speak, he just let Guan Xing leave in a grand manner.
"Why is this person so rude?" Gao Ding looked at the direction Guan Xing left, and his face was a little not good-looking.
"Lord, do you see this horse or not?" E Huan looked at the direction Guan Xing left with some regret, looked at Gao Ding and frowned and asked.
"See you!" Gao Ding looked around, except for E Huan, the other generals showed expectation in their eyes, even if he was stupid, he understood that if he insisted on going further, this road would probably become his own dead end.
At that moment, he ordered E Huan, and ordered three other generals to come out of the formation, and came to the front of the two armies with him.
On the other side, Ma Jian saw that Gao Ding really went out of battle, leaving Wei Yue to command the troops, and brought Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, Zhao Guang, and Chen Ergou out of the battle.
After the two sides exchanged salutes, E Huan frowned and looked at Ma Tan, he didn't expect Ma Tan to be so young: "How are you doing?" ”
"I don't mean to be an enemy of the king." Ma Jian looked at Gao Ding and smiled.
"Then let me go." Gao Ding's face was a little tired, he really didn't want to fight.
Shaking his head, Ma Jian smiled and said: "The prince of the palace raised troops because he was deceived by that Yonghong, but in any case, the prince of the palace despised the majesty of the king, which was tantamount to rebellion, even if he was not punished for the crime of rebellion, it was impossible to let the prince of the palace lead the army." ”
"What do you mean?" When Gao Ding heard this, his eyes gradually became fierce, and E Huan's eyes on the side became much sharper.
"Huh?" Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, Zhao Guang, and Chen Ergou noticed the troops, and immediately stepped forward and glared at Na Ehuan.
"This time our army came, in order to quell the rebellion, the three counties are too guarded, no matter what the reason, they all raised troops to participate in this rebellion, Zhu Bao has been beheaded in the chaos of the army, although Yonghong fled, but its full door has been planted, as for the ...... of the prince" Ma Tan glanced at Ehuan and said indifferently: "Even if the Tinghou is willing to give the prince a chance, it is impossible to let the monarch hold the military power again." ”
"If you don't have the power to fight, wouldn't you be slaughtered by Ren Er!?" Gao Ding said angrily.
"The prince of the palace is now in the power of the army...... "Ma Jian shook his head, and said in a unhurried tone: "The prince of the mansion thinks that in front of the pavilion, how much power does he have to fight back?" ”
"You ......" Gao Ding is obviously unwilling to admit this fact.
"The counties in Nanzhong are too guarded, they are trusted by the king, but they are in disobedience to the king's yang, and they have no size in the country, and the people in Nanzhong have no grace, and the anti-cholera country is in the community, whether it is the king or the pavilion marquis, it is impossible to stay in this Nanzhong to fight the poison." Ma Jian looked at Gao Ding, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his expression became solemn.
"If the prince of the palace is willing to hand over the military power now, go back with me, there is still life, and he can save his life and his family; But if the prince insists on holding the military power in his hands and resisting to the end, even if the marquis of the pavilion is unwilling to kill more, but when the two armies are fighting, he will no longer take the life of the prince, and when the time comes, the prince will be killed in battle, and his family will also be a traitor's family, and it will not be spared! ”
"You're threatening me!?" Gao Ding's face sank, and he looked at Ma Jian calmly.
"Fu Jun can think so." Ma Tan nodded and said: "But what Tan said is not a lie, is it to continue to resist, then be killed, and finally bring disaster to his family?" Or conform to the people's hearts, put down the military power and go back with me, save your own life and protect the safety of your family, it all depends on the difference between the king's thoughts, and the emperor is just persuading, whether to listen or not, it depends on how the prince chooses. ”
Gao Ding looked at Ma Jian and stood in place with a somewhat ugly face.
Ma Tan didn't mean to say much to him, and after his meaning was clearly expressed, he said that he would do it for himself and returned to his own camp with the four generals.
"My lord?" E Huan looked at Gao Ding.
"Go back!" Gao Ding's mind was a little confused, he was a little hesitant, he didn't want to continue fighting, and he didn't want to give up the rights he held in his hands now, how could a man have no rights?
On the other side, after Ma Tan returned to the army, Guan Xing was a little curious: "Sir, will Ehuan surrender?" ”
"Yes, but it may have to wait, this person seems to be reckless, but in fact he is indecisive, and for a while, I am afraid it will be difficult to make a decision." Ma Jian shook his head, after talking before, he was basically able to determine who Gao Ding was, before Ma Jian probably saw that the other party was not a very strategic person, and now after meeting, he has a clearer understanding of Gao Ding, but he is greedy but not self-aware, so he can completely recognize the reality.
"Then our army is just like this?" Guan Xing was puzzled.
"Well, it's consumed." Ma Jian nodded: "You bring people to the other party's camp every night to make noise, and you can't let them have a chance to recuperate." ”
Since there is no negotiation, then it is still the enemy, and there can be no slackness and mercy towards the enemy.
"This ......" Chen Ergou heard this, looked at Ma Yan and said: "Sir, the last general has also used this method before, but it has no effect. ”
"Before, Gao Ding didn't know how powerful, he was unplanned, he didn't know how to be vigilant, and he didn't succeed in attacking recklessly, but now it's different, Ehuan's soldiers and horses are tired, the army's heart is unstable, and he knows that our army is on the side, so he naturally doesn't dare to go out of the camp to fight at will." Ma Tan explained with a smile that when this strategy is scored, it also scores people, and the same strategy has different effects on generals with different personalities, and the effects on the same person at different times are also different, so it cannot be generalized.
Chen Ergou nodded, and said no more.
That night, Gao Ding, who originally thought that he could sleep peacefully, was harassed by the enemy again, and his desire to sleep well was once again disappointed, and Gao Ding was so angry that he killed more than a dozen deserters in a row.
Early the next morning, Gao Ding came to the front of the battle and scolded, but Ma Yan's reason was very sufficient, since you did not surrender, then you are still the enemy, and no matter how much means are too much for the enemy.
Gao Ding was speechless, and returned to the army in a muffled voice, but the atmosphere in the army was low, after an inventory, overnight, there were more than 1,000 fewer soldiers and horses, and the officers and men of the three armies did not have the slightest morale at all. And, judging by the current situation, I'm afraid it won't be long before the army will be almost gone.
"Lord, surrender." Several generals came to Gao Ding, and couldn't help but persuade: "If it goes on like this, don't say that you will return to help Yuewang, I'm afraid that the officers and soldiers of the three armies will not be able to go for too long, and they will disperse!" ”
"Presumptuous!" E Huan glared at the generals and said, "You want to rebel!?" ”
"We belong to the king of Hanzhong, how can we be considered a rebellion?" A general said with a stiff neck.
"Bold!" E Huan didn't know how to pick it up, so he simply showed his weapon directly.
"Enough!" Gao Ding shook his head a little decadently, stopped E Huan and said, "Go and tell that Ma Yan, I will wait for the wish to surrender!" ”
"The prince of the mansion is wise!"
