241 Prisoner's Dilemma
Zhang Xiu's army was defeated, Duyang, Fangcheng, and Zhixian fell into the hands of Cao Cao successively, and Nanyang County Zhiwan County almost became an undefended location.
In the city of Wanxian, Zhang Ji heard that the army was destroyed, and after his nephew was captured, he couldn't eat and sleep at night under a series of bad news. Today, there are only 2,000 guards left in the city, but Cao Cao's vanguard generals Cao Ren and Xiahoudun have already led more than 10,000 troops to the city.
Zhang Ji knew that Wan County couldn't hold on, so he led people to abandon the city overnight and retreated, and went straight to Nanxiang, another major county under his control.
Zhang Ji led the army to run wildly for three days and nights, and rushed to Nanxiang County. He glanced at the banner on the city tower and let out a sigh, "It's finally safe!" ”
He shouted at the city tower and called out to Wang Yong's name: "Wang Hanfu, open the city gate quickly!" ”
"Who's coming?" The gatekeeper asked.
"A certain Zhang Ji!"
The gate keeper took a torch and shone it under the city, "What a lord!" Wait a minute. After speaking, the city gate guard ran into the city tower, bowed to the army and saluted: "Taishou Da - people, the lord is back!" ”
The head of Nanxiang County, Haoqiang Wang Yong, who once funded Zhang Ji to take Nanyang and Nanxiang Second Counties, frowned, scolded the city gate guards: "Zhang Ji is a bullshit lord!" The ancients said: 'A good bird chooses a tree to perch, and a virtuous minister serves the lord.' 'Zhang Ji is a remnant of Dong Zhuo, a traitor, how can he be our lord. When the princes of the nineteen towns jointly invaded Luoyang, although the Dong thief retreated, the momentum was huge, and the princes from all walks of life were afraid of it. Only Cao Gong understood the righteousness and was not afraid of power, and he was the first to lead the horse to follow the pursuit, and even the god general Luan Ziqi followed after Cao Gong. Cao Gong is really loyal and a hero, only such a lord is worthy of my generation's service and follow! Do you understand? ”
The city gate guards only promised and said yes again and again.
After saying that, Wang Yong looked sideways at the middle-aged man sitting side by side with him, with a flattering smile on his face, and asked, "Mr. Zhongde, is the little one right?" ”
"Yu also thinks that Wang Taishou's words are very reasonable!" It was none other than Cheng Yu who spoke. He rushed ahead of Zhang Ji's army, took a small road to Nanxiang first, and completed the rebellion against Wang Yong ahead of schedule.
That Wang Yong was originally a rich man, and he spent a lot of money to support Zhang Ji to recruit troops for a certain background. Now, seeing that Cao's army is strong, Zhang Ji has been defeated in successive battles and lost Nanyang. immediately thought that if Zhang Ji retreated to Nanxiang, even if he could defeat Cao Cao, Wang Yong would have to give him the position of Nanxiang Taishou to Zhang Ji to sit on.
If you can't hold Cao Cao's offensive, Nanxiang City Banner will change, once the son of heaven and a courtier, Nanxiang will definitely have a big blood change, and the position of Taishou will still not be able to be kept at that time.
Horizontal and vertical have nothing to do with themselves!
Thinking of this, Wang Yong panicked, and secretly scolded himself for spending a lot of gold and silver in exchange for the position of Taishou How could it be so vulnerable, could the duck in his hand only watch it fly like that?
Just when he was anxious, Cheng Yu came to see him. After revealing his identity, he pointed out a clear path to Wang Yong - "Brother Wang, as long as you help our army defeat Zhang Ji, you can make a great achievement." In this way, Cao Gong will treat you well and continue to let you come to serve as the Taishou of Nanxiang. If Brother Wang is conscientious in office, Cao Gong will gain power in the future, and there will be a great future waiting for you! ”
I have to admit that the olive branch thrown by Cheng Yu is in Wang Yong's arms. The irritated Wang Yong's saliva secretion kept stopping, and he Tian moistened his lips, "I am always willing to follow Cao Gong, and I will never give up my liver and brain!" ”
Cheng Yu didn't expect Wang Yongzhen to be able to do the so-called "liver and brain", he vaguely remembered that Luan Yi once used one word to describe Wang Yong. What's it called? That's right, speculative merchants! People like this never know what "loyalty" is, but only "profit" in their hearts. Whoever gives them more benefit will do with whomever they want.
Since he put profit first and regarded power as a transaction, Cao Cao could also regard himself as a buyer. Now, Wang Yong is useful to Cao Cao, and can help him take Nanxiang County in the shortest possible time, so he will be promised a lot of profits. When he is useless, he can terminate the trade at any time, unload the mill and kill the donkey.
This is the price of ruthlessness and unrighteousness. Thinking of this, Cheng Yu couldn't help but miss his old classmate and former friend Luan Yi.
In reminiscence, I heard Wang Yong ask: "Mr. Zhongde, Zhang Ji has arrived, are you acting according to the plan?" ”
Cheng Yu nodded.
Wang Yong asked the city gate guard, "You know what to do, right?" ”
The city gate guard arched his hand and said: "Your Excellency, rest assured, it is foolproof." Then he was commanded to retreat, and when he returned to the city, he cried out, "Make the gates open to the Lord!" ”
"Click, click, click, ......click, click
Zhang Ji glanced at the dark doorway, did not doubt, and drove the troops in.
But the 2,000 centaurs had just entered the halfway point, and there was a familiar sound of "click-click-......" in their ears. Zhang Ji turned his head to look back, and the open city gate quickly closed, "Huh? He quickly looked back ahead, and the inner city gate was tightly closed, and the walls of the urn city were on both sides.
He and 1,000 soldiers were trapped in the closed urn city on all sides.
Zhang Ji roared: "Wang Yong, what are you doing? ”
"Why?" Wang Yong stood behind the women's wall with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "Help Cao Gong capture you!" ”
"Huh? Wang Yong dog thief, you dare to bear me? Without me, I could have you today. ”
"Phew!" Wang Yong spat out a big mouthful of phlegm, "Without me, you would have starved to death!" If I hadn't given you money and grain, would you have been able to conquer Nanxiang and Nanyang and become a prince? ”
"I ......" Zhang Ji was angry and didn't know what to say!
Cheng Yu flashed out from behind the city wall at the right time, "General Zhang, Nanyang and Nanxiang have fallen into the hands of my lord one after another, and the general is at the end of his rope, and stubborn resistance is just a way to kill himself." Why not drop early? ”
Zhang Ji prides himself on not being a person with great ambitions, and has never thought of expanding his territory and becoming a hegemon in troubled times. Just seek to entrench in a corner and ask for Gou'an, and any general under the master of the Ming Dynasty will protect the peace of the party. And the idea of getting older is getting stronger and stronger, and now that he is 60 years old, what ambition can he have, just to spend the rest of his life in comfort.
However, the reality always loves to get along with him. The fall of the first lord Dong Zhuo made Zhang Ji exiled for more than half a year, and he was already physically and mentally exhausted. finally begged for a nest, wanted to settle down for a while, and was taken away by Cao Cao. He is fed up with homelessness and does not want to be an ownerless minister anymore, he is too old to stand the toss anymore.
Therefore, in the face of Cheng Yu's surrender, Zhang Ji made one last request to Cheng Yu before surrendering, "If you want a certain family to switch to Cao Gong, you can also do it!" However, there is a certain condition. ”
The corners of Cheng Yu's mouth inadvertently rose, "What conditions?" ”
"Wang Yong is ungrateful. A certain family does not share the sky with him. As long as the adults kill Wang Yong, Zhang Ji voluntarily asks to surrender. ”
"What if I don't kill him?" Cheng Yu asked.
"The king never dies...... I'm dead! "Zhang Ji immediately raised his gun, looking like he would not surrender." There is me without him under Cao Gong's account, and there is him without me! ”
"This ......" Cheng Yu focused his sharp eyes on Wang Yong, and Wang Yong, who was looking directly, was terrified, and trembled: "Mr. Zhongde, don't listen to him!" After speaking, Zhang Ji under the city shouted angrily: "Mr. Zhongde won't listen to your nonsense." I am loyal to Cao Gong, if you want to die, you will die! ”
"Hahaha......" Zhang Ji laughed heartily, "Wang Yong dog thief, your life is over!" ”
Wang Yong also saw that Cheng Yu had not opened his mouth for a long time, and immediately understood that Cheng Yu had murderous intentions towards him. In order to avoid a change in delay, he hurriedly ordered, "Where is the crossbowman?" Shoot Zhang Ji to death for me! ”
Before the archers had time to line up the array, they heard Cheng Yu raise his arms and shout, "Stop for this officer!" Zhang Ji can't die......" He knew that Zhang Xiu, who was detained in the case, still needed Zhang Ji to convince.
"Then Mr. Zhongde just wants me to die?" Anger appeared on Wang Yong's face.
"Brother Wang, I'm sorry!" Cheng Yupi didn't smile.
"Cheng Zhongde, when you are arrogant, you don't look at the realm." Wang Yong opened his arms, "Nanxiang is my territory, I am the heaven here, and I have the final say." That's right, Cao Mengde will soon command a large army to attack, but before the army enters, I have enough time to kill you and Zhang Ji first. If I die, you two will have to bury me too!" ”
Cheng Yu glanced at Wang Yong's face distorted by hysteria, and a violent sense of disgust arose in his heart. He snorted coldly and said, "Do you really think that you are still the heaven of Nanxiang?" ”
"You'll know what 'heaven' is right away!" Wang Yong raised his voice and ordered, "Someone! Cut Cheng Zhongde for me! ”
As soon as the order fell, under the gaze of Wang Yong with a smile in his eyes, more than a dozen soldiers rushed towards Cheng Yu with a fierce momentum.
"Stop!" Cheng Yu was calm, completely ignoring the soldiers who came to kidnap him, and shouted loudly: "Whoever can take off Wang Yong's head will be the next Nanxiang Taishou under Cao Gong's account!" With that, he turned his gaze to the city gate guard.
The city gate guards were stunned, more than a dozen soldiers paused, and the generals and soldiers on the wall focused their eyes on Cheng Yu's face, and then moved to Wang Yong's neck.
Murderous intent grows.
Wang Yong's face turned green all of a sudden, "What do you want to do?" If you want to rebel, you can't do it! ”
"It's your rebellion!" The city gate guard was closest to Wang Yong, and he pulled out his sword suddenly, driven by interests, he burst out with unprecedented potential, and the speed of drawing the sword was breathtaking, even he himself did not expect that he could draw the sword out with a slight sound in such a fast time. With lightning speed, he accurately stabbed the long sword into Wang Yong's heart.
"You...... I'm not kind of to you......" Wang Yongwa spat out a large pool of blood.
Cheng Yu walked up to Wang Yong's body with a smile on his face, faced Wang Yong who was dying, took out a book from his sleeve, and shook it in front of Wang Yong's eyes.
Wang Yong used the last bit of strength in his life to take a look at it - "Introduction to the Game", printed by Luan Jia, written by Luan Yi. "Huh?" He snorted inexplicably.
Cheng Yu smiled: "You should read more books when you have nothing to do, Luan Ziqi's book is especially worth reading." This is his new work, and one of them tells the story of two prisoners who are held separately by the officials and interrogated one by one. Ziqi called it the 'prisoner's dilemma', which means that when the disaster is at hand and there is no ability to resist, only betrayal is the best countermeasure to win a glimmer of life, and Ziqi's betrayal is called Ziqi balance. Obviously, I used the principle of the prisoner's dilemma to guide your general to find the Ziqi balance at the moment of crisis. And you...... There is only one dead end. (See Chapter 144 of "Game Theory" The Prisoner's Dilemma) After hearing this, Wang Yong vomited blood and died several fights. Cheng Yu closed his eyes for him, and said in a low voice: "You are not unjust at all for your death!" ”
