Chapter 1123: Cao Ren commits suicide and takes control of Xiangyang

Cai Mao sighed, this time he lost nothing.

Cai Mao asked, Xu Chen stepped forward and saluted and said, "Lord Wang, my subordinates were ordered to come to Jingzhou seven years ago. ”

Seven years ago, Cai Mao was cold in her heart.

"How many more people are yours?" Cai Mao asked.

Xu Chen shook his head and said: "The subordinates don't know, we are all one-line contacts, and the subordinates only knew about the existence of Commander Wen a few days ago." ”

Cai Mao asked again, "How did you know that I would promote you?" ”

Xu Chen was amused and felt that Cai Mao's question was too stupid.

"No one knows who you will promote, for seven years, His Majesty the Tang Dynasty has not contacted me, and it was not until after the start of the attack on Jingzhou that his subordinates were awakened." Xu Chen replied.

Cai Mao also felt that her problem was ridiculous, and Zhang Yu started arranging it several years ago.

He should have arranged a lot of people, so many people were always promoted by themselves, and there were many more who were not promoted.

Cai Mao didn't know how many people around him were Zhang Yu.

This battle is not unjust, and it is strange not to lose.

"Xu Chen, you are still my advisor, what advice do you have?" Cai Mao asked suddenly.

Xu Chen nodded, and then said, "You'd better hang yourself, this is your best ending." ”

Committed suicide, Cai Mao was sad, and she was forced to commit suicide.

"Sun Ce also died like this, the old man has been rich and noble all his life, and he has mastered Jingzhou, but he didn't expect it to end like this." Cai Mao sighed.

Xu Chen said again: "You are not as good as Sun Ce, the prince is very smart, but he relies on the family and has no big pattern." ”

Cai Mao is definitely a rare naval talent in the Three Kingdoms era, and few people can compare to him.

However, his pattern is really small.

Cai Mao did not speak.

He was thinking about his family now.

It is probably impossible for Zhang Yu to let them go, this Cai family, I don't know how powerful.

Under their own management, the Cai family is second to none, but now it is gone.

The Cai family's industry is all over Jingzhou, which has a population of tens of millions and is extremely prosperous.

But what is the result?

"Can you tell the king what the situation is outside?" Cai Mao asked.

Xu Chen nodded and ordered the soldiers to get a few cups of tea, which Xu Chen was very tired from working all night.

After moving a chair, Xu Chen did it in the middle of the main hall, and after drinking a few sips of tea, Xu Chen said: "My Tang army, 300,000 troops entered the city, led by my majesty personally, Jingzhou soldiers and horses, 30,000 people have surrendered in advance to become internal responses." When the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses came in, most of the Jingzhou soldiers and horses surrendered. ”

"There are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses around this palace, they may be worrying, my lord is not in a hurry to attack the palace, but to give priority to solving the Cao army."

The hall was suffocated for a while, and Cai Mao and the other staff members could not accept it.

His own soldiers and horses are so fragile.

After Cai Mao took Jingzhou, he rarely led the army in person, and handed it over to his subordinates and clansmen.

I didn't expect it to be like this in a few years.

In fact, after the expansion of Jingzhou's soldiers and horses, the combat power has been declining.

Cai Mao took a few sips of tea and relieved herself.

The sky is gradually getting brighter.

The shouts outside gradually weakened.

Zhang Yu and Dian Wei have been besieging the soldiers and horses led by Cao Ren, and now there are more than 1,000 people left.

"General Cao Ren, we are also old acquaintances, and now in this situation, there is no need to continue fighting."

Cao Ren looked around, they were all Zhang Yu's soldiers and horses, and tens of thousands of troops surrounded them, so there was really no need to fight.

Cao Ren smiled bitterly, he took 100,000 troops, and he was afraid that he would be lost here.

100,000 troops, and all of them are elite soldiers.

These are veterans of several years, and after so many battles, there are not many veterans of Cao Cao.

"General Zhang, I hope you treat them well." Cao Ren said.

Zhang Yu nodded, collected his weapon, and then said, "They are all my people, and I have always been kind to my people. ”

His people?

Cao Ren sighed again, after becoming a king and defeating a king, no one could stop Zhang Yu's unification, and their alliance was broken.

Sun Ce and Cai Mao were destroyed one after another, and Cao Cao and Liu Bei alone were difficult to resist.

Now, Luoyang is not safe either.

Cao Ren knew that there was no need to continue fighting, the sky was dawning, and reinforcements from other places had not come, so it should be all over.

"Give me a decent way to die." Cao Ren said again.

Cao Ren said, Zhang Yu is also very helpless, this Cao Ren is a wise general, a famous general, the force is not the top, but he is the top commander.

Zhang Yu nodded, he cherished Cao Ren's talent very much, but he was Cao Cao's person after all, and he couldn't accept it.

"I'm going to order the rest of the Cao army to lay down their arms, I don't want more killing."

Zhang Yu ordered to make way for Cao Ren and let him go by himself.

Zhang Yu was naturally not afraid that Cao Ren could escape, no one could escape.

Guo Jia still has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the city, and several city gates have also been controlled.

When Cao Ren arrived at the other military camps, they also lost more than half of their soldiers and horses.

If it weren't for Zhang Yu's failure to order the onslaught, it is estimated that it would have been broken long ago.

Zhang Yu didn't need to storm it, they were all surrounded, and it was solved slowly, and if he could die a little less, he would die a little less.

Deal with Cao Ren, Zhang Yu is going to meet Cai Mao.

And Cao Ren, when he went around and gave the order to lay down his weapons, he committed suicide on the wall of the north gate, in the direction of Luoyang.

Zhang Yu led his soldiers and horses to the palace, while the other generals began to collect the weapons of the surrendered troops and place the surrendered troops.

All Jingzhou's soldiers and horses must surrender and settle first, the difference is that the other resettlement that surrendered before will be given preferential treatment, but they must also lay down their arms.

This battle was fought for half a night, and Xiangyang City easily won it.

Xiangyang City will continue to be locked down for a while.

Zhang Yu led his troops to the outside of the palace, which had not yet gone through the war, and when the plan was formulated, Zhang Yu had no plan to attack the palace.

Moreover, the Xiangyang army in many places did not attack, so that the entire Xiangyang City was not greatly damaged, and the battle area was concentrated near a few city gates.

Around the palace, these Jingzhou troops were still very nervous.

However, several streets were surrounded by troops.

Zhang Yu asked people to start persuading him to surrender.

These armies are aware of what is happening and are now in turmoil.

More than 10,000 people were surrounded, and they did not dare to move, especially if they had not yet received orders.

After a while, Xu Chen and Commander Wen came out.

"The prince has an order, ordering you and others to lay down their arms and surrender."

The two announced their surrender, and many people were still hesitating, but they did not dare to resist or attack.

Everyone was still hesitating, and Commander Wen burst into tears and said: "All put down their weapons, the prince has already ordered surrender, do you want to kill the prince all over the house?" ”

Commander Wen's shouting worked, and everyone slowly lowered their weapons.

Some people began to lay down, and others put down their weapons when they saw it.

Zhang Yu commanded the army and stepped forward to collect their weapons.
