Chapter 325: Persuasion Fails

Liu Bei still refused Liu Qi's request.

Although Zhuge Liang said the refusal, although he knew that the result would be like this, Zhang Fei still felt very lost and sad in his heart.

He fought for Liu Bei all his life, and he was not even worth a county, such a result was really sad and lamentable.

When people are paranoid, it is easy to fall into an irrational state, such as Zhang Fei in front of him, he no longer cares about what the loss of Wang County will mean, but he only remembers that in Liu Bei's mind, he is not as good as a county seat!

"How many county towns have I built for him in my life? But now that I have been captured by Liu Qi, I am not even willing to exchange me for a small county less than 100 miles, and I still think that he has a deep relationship with me. Hehe, like brothers, Enru brothers, is this how Enru brothers? It seems that for so many years, our brotherhood has been nothing more than wishful thinking on my part. Wife and children can not be wanted, elder brother Yun's revenge can not be avenged, Liu Feng can be killed for no reason, I can give up, in his eyes, the most important thing seems to be only his world and foundation, for the so-called great ambition, for the so-called foundation, he can give up everything, this is his so-called big hero? โ€

Zhang Fei was sad and angry in his heart, tears rolled down, and he secretly thought: "Actually, I just want to hear you say that you are willing to exchange me back, I just want to hear you say that you value me as a person, as long as you say this sentence, I will find a way to seek death, and I will never embarrass you, but you don't even dare to say this, do you know that you are really chilling to do this?" In the past 20 years, I have sworn allegiance to you with all my heart and soul, how many times have I been born and died for you, and how many times have I rescued you from the battlefield, but I have made so many contributions. It's not as precious as a county seat. โ€

To Zhang Fei's surprise, it was Liu Qi who said what he wanted to say for him, and directly reprimanded Liu Bei's hypocrisy in person.

"Xuande Gong, Zhang Yide has been with you for 20 years, I don't know how many times you have been born and died, and blood has been spilled on the battlefield. I don't know how many times I rescued you from danger, he was loyal to you in this life, but I didn't expect you to be so stingy, even a county town was reluctant to exchange him, you abandoned your wife and children for the so-called great cause, the wolf bรจi fled, for the so-called great cause of disregarding the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, regardless of the hatred of Guan Yu, betrayed the ancestors. Flattering to the Cao thief, for the so-called great cause, Qu killed the righteous son Liu Feng, the world's people with a cold nature, no one can go out of the public right, all the civil ministers and generals and soldiers at the head of the city, you should be careful, Liu Bei can even sacrifice his wife and brother and son. You can imagine what your status is in his heart. Is it your desire to die for such a master? โ€

Next, Liu Qi didn't wait for Liu Bei to open his mouth, and said sharply again: "Originally, I have always respected Liu Xuande as a hero in the world, governing the people with benevolence and righteousness, and accepting the heroes of the world with faith and righteousness. Now I finally understand that the so-called benevolence, righteousness and morality are just a pretext for you to seek a foundation, and in your mind, no one is as important as your foundation, when it comes to the root. You're just a very selfish villain. I deeply mourn for Guan Yunchang, lament for Zhang Yide, and rejoice for Ma Mengqi and Zhao Zilong, because if they are also under your account, the result can only be like this. โ€

But I heard Zhuge Liang say: "Liu Qi, don't look like you are compassionate there, when Jingxiang was in turmoil, when you killed your brother and uncle, you didn't see the slightest softness, you have been fighting for many years, don't you have a little selfishness?" If you take over the world in the future, do you dare to promise that you will not replace the Son of Heaven? You are just a guy who is full of benevolence and morality, but in fact he is a dirty conspirator, how can you be qualified to talk about Qin Gong here? โ€

Liu Qi laughed when he heard this, and then said loudly: "I did kill my rebellious brother Liu Cong at the beginning, but this is to eliminate evil in the world, Liu Cong murdered his father for his own selfishness, if such a person is not removed, how can he demonstrate the way of benevolence and filial piety?" As for the Cai family, Hugh said that it was not killed by Lonely, even if it was, it was Cai Mao's own fault, Zhuge Liang, people are doing it, the sky is watching, life is done by oneself, blessing is born from the heart, and he has done something against the sky, and he will be punished in the future, so Cai Mao's death is not because of me, but because of himself. As for what you said about the belonging of this world, although I am indeed selfish, I am also for the sake of the Han and the liver and gall, sweeping away the turbidity of the world, where is it like you? On the surface, the vaunted Han is actually constantly digging into the corners of the big Han. โ€

After finishing speaking, Liu Qi changed his words and continued to shout: "Zhuge Liang, the incident of Xuchang's attack on the driver, and later Liu Bei's alliance with Cao Cao, do you say that there is no temptation for you?" As a Han Chen, your ancestors ate Hanlu, but for your own selfish desires, you persuaded Liu Bei to rebel against the royal family, and asked yourself in the middle of the night, don't you secretly say a word of shame? As Liu Bei's most trusted military advisor, you can't be the enemy for the country outside, you can't prosper the economy internally, and you are virtuous for the country, but you vainly claim to be the talent of Guan Zhong Leyi, don't you feel ashamed? Guan Zhong assisted Duke Huan of Qi, reformed the economy, developed the military, and finally made Qi the first hegemon of the Spring and Autumn Period; Le Yi led the army to more than 70 cities in Qi with a weak swallow, and destroyed Qi several times. โ€

Zhuge Liang listened to Liu Qi's words, and couldn't help but stagnate in his chest, although he had countless words to refute in his heart, but he really didn't achieve the same feats as Guan Zhong and Le Yi, but he could only remain silent.

At this time, Liu Bei couldn't help but regret it in his heart, he knew that this was the case, and he wouldn't be in the city to answer him today, he finally understood that fighting with Liu Qi was really a big mistake for himself.

In today's conversation, he can be said to be extremely passive, just glanced at it, and saw that the faces of some civil and military generals in the city were a little suspicious, obviously bewitched by Liu Qi's words, and the people's hearts fluctuated.

So Liu Bei glanced at Chen Zhi and quietly made a gesture to him.

Chen Zhi has followed Liu Bei for many years, so he naturally knew what Liu Bei meant, took out his bow and arrow, shot an arrow at Liu Qi, and shouted: "Liu Qi, Hugh has to play with his lips and tongue here." Eat me with an arrow. โ€

Chen Zhi's arrow was naturally dodged by Liu Qi lightly, but his original intention was not to shoot Liu Qi to death, because he also knew that he did not have this ability, he was just to provoke Liu Qi to attack the city, and no longer make him make such demagogic statements.

Liu Qi naturally knew Chen Dao's intentions, but his original purpose was to make Zhang Fei feel cold, and now when he saw Zhang Fei's expression, he knew that the goal had been achieved, so he didn't bother to speak, but cooperated with Chen Dao's intention and ordered the siege of the city.

Liu Bei was naturally ready to defend the city, and after this attack and defense, there was naturally no result, and finally after two hours, Liu Qi was forced to retreat.

In the following days, Liu Qi sent people to attack the city every day, but the siege time was uncertain, or at dawn, or at noon, or at night, and even sometimes just beating drums and not attacking the city, which made the people in the city panic, although Zhuge Liang was wise, but the battlefield was virtual and real, there was no fixed law, but there was nothing to do, so he could only order the soldiers in the city to be divided into two groups, and take turns to be on duty during the day and night, in case Liu Qi's tired enemy disturbed the enemy's plan.

On that day, after Liu Qi's request to exchange Zhang Fei for Huangxian County was refused, he saw that Zhang Fei had been depressed, and even fought with a hunger strike.

Although he was already cold and disappointed with Liu Bei, Zhang Fei never agreed to Liu Qi's request to surrender, and was ready to die of hunger strike, so that he would no longer care about who would get the world.

Liu Qi naturally knew Zhang Fei's current situation, although he felt sorry for him in his heart, but he had no means of persuasion, and he sighed for a while.

"I really didn't expect this Zhang Fei to be so stubborn, he was already completely disappointed in Liu Bei, and he still refused to surrender, I really don't know what this person thinks?" Liu Qi shook his head with a wry smile and said with a sad face.

Jia Xu on the side persuaded: "The lord and don't be impatient, if a man like Zhang Fei is paranoid, it is really a helpless thing, if the lord really wants to subdue him, I am afraid it will take a while before there is hope, under normal circumstances, as long as he does not have the will to die, the lord's hope is still very great." โ€

Liu Qi sighed and said: "This is what I'm most worried about, because Zhang Fei has not eaten or drunk for the past few days, and his body is extremely weak, if he continues like this, I am afraid that he will die in a few days." It didn't matter if he died, but it created an excuse for Liu Bei to boost morale, so that we could lose our hard-won advantage again. โ€

"Hehe, the main reason why the lord is reluctant to give up a general like Zhang Fei is the main reason, right?" Jia Xu glanced at Liu Qi, who nodded silently, and sighed softly: "A master like the lord who has such patience with captives can really be said to be unique in this world, although Xu is not sure to persuade Zhang Fei to surrender, but there is a way to let him recover his diet, I don't know ...... lord."

"What is Wen He's clever plan, quickly speaking, as long as he can save his life, the matter of surrender can be discussed in the long run." Liu Qi was really impatient when he heard this, and immediately asked.

"Actually, it's not difficult, Zhang Fei is bent on dying because he has lost faith in his heart, as long as he can give him the faith to live, such as for him and Guan Yu's family, presumably he will have the idea of living......"

"Hehe, the military advisor is really a person who wakes up from his dreams with a word." Liu Qi clapped his hands happily, and then immediately ordered Zhang Fei's old general Fan Qiang to see Zhang Fei, and explained like this.

But said that Fan Qiang saw Zhang Fei and secretly said to Zhang Fei: "The last general has no choice but to surrender, in fact, there is mainly a purpose, that is, to wait for the opportunity to rescue the general, only if the general keeps his promising body, can there be a hope of shame, and please ask the general to be patient for the time being, as long as he finds an opportunity, the general will definitely rescue the general."
