Chapter 124: Liu was surrendered

The next battle of Xuzhou also became simpler, and after receiving Jia Xu's letter, the Eastern Army immediately sent people to inform Wang Sen of the current situation of Xiapi. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This made Cao Cao and Wang Sen a little dizzy, the two of them didn't understand, aren't everyone preparing to fight for a long time? But what's the matter now, the Eastern Army is so active in recovering Xiapi, has the two sides already divided the winner and loser?

"Big brother, although we don't know about Chen Liu's situation now, from the perspective of the Eastern Army, they are no longer delaying, it seems that the competition between the two mansions is over!"

"Brother Sen, I think so too, but I'm still a little worried in my heart, this won't be another trick used in the duel between our two mansions, right?"

"Big brother, you think too much, after the battle of Xuzhou, we will return to Chenliu, and the two of us will personally do the battle, I don't dare to play any tricks if I want to believe it..."

Cao Cao thought for a while, "Brother Sen, then I will go with you to Xiapi, deal with the matter, and prepare to recover Xuzhou." ”

"Okay big brother, then let's go now." After Wang Sen finished speaking, he told the soldiers to prepare, and after handing over the command to Jia Xu, he left the main army's tent.

…………

Early the next morning, Cao Cao and Wang Sen rushed to the Eastern Army, and after Huang Zhong received the news, he also led everyone out of the tent to greet him.

"Subordinate Huang Zhong, see your lord!" After Huang Zhong finished speaking, the others also bowed and saluted one by one.

"The generals are exempt from courtesy, and you have worked hard to use troops against Xiapi for several days! No, Brother Cao and I will rush to you as soon as we receive your military letter. ”

"By the way, what's going on in Xiapi now?" Wang Senxun asked.

"Back to my lord, since we captured Guan Yu, Liu Bei closed the city gate and stopped fighting, and at the same time sent people to sue for peace, hoping that your lord will decide."

"Oh, I see, that's the case, okay, go see Guan Yu on my behalf immediately, I'm going to ask him face to face."

"It's my lord!" After Huang Zhong finished speaking, he entered the Eastern Army Tent on behalf of Wang Sen and Cao Cao.

It didn't take long for the soldiers of the Eastern Army to press Guan Yu up.

Wang Sen swept Guan Yu's body, and when he saw that there were no scars, he was also relieved.

"Yun Chang, do you remember me?"

Guan Yu raised his head and looked at it for a long time before he asked, "Are you Lord Wang Sen?" ”

It's no wonder that Guan Yu can't recognize Wang Sen, Wang Sen at this time and Wang Sen in the Tiger Prison back then are really like two people.

Wang Sen, who was in the Tiger Prison at that time, was gentle and elegant, with a beautiful face, more like a scholar.

But today's Wang Sen is graceful and luxurious, full of momentum, comparable to a prince.

"That's right, it's this official, I didn't expect that our Tiger Prison would be separated for more than three years, and now you have also become a general, which is really gratifying." After Wang Sen finished speaking, he also asked his soldiers to sit for Guan Yu, and chatted at the same time.

"Yes, my lord, now that we meet again, Yun Chang is really happy."

"If it weren't for the support of adults back then, I'm afraid Yun Chang would still be unknown now." Guan Yu said gratefully.

"Yun Chang doesn't have to be polite, with your ability, I firmly believe that even if you didn't meet me back then, you would still be where you are today."

"Thank you for looking up to Yun Chang so much, Yun Chang really doesn't dare to be, it's really ashamed of the adults to meet in this way!"

"Yun Chang is too worried, our two armies are facing each other, my lords, this is normal."

"Although you were captured by my generals, in my heart, Yun Chang is still the same hero."

"It's just that I don't understand, Liu Beijun is already a tired army, knowing that we are the people of the princess's mansion, why do we still want to go to war with us, do you really have a heart of disobedience?"

After listening to Wang Sen's words, Guan Yu smiled bitterly, and at the same time glanced at Huang Zhong and said against his will: "My lord, this is not the case, my eldest brother is a loyal relative of the Han family, how can he rebel?" ”

"I just want to use this battle to raise the prestige of our army, and at the same time let the royal family pay attention to the situation here, that's all."

What Guan Yu said was not the truth at the time, in fact, Liu Bei sent an envoy to Huang Zhong to ask for peace at the beginning, because he wanted to drag down the war in Xuzhou, so Huang Zhong didn't pay attention to it at all.

There was no way for Liu Bei to make this decision and start a war with the Eastern Army, just to let Wang Sen or the royal family notice the situation here.

And now Wang Sen is finally here, but things have become complicated...

After Guan Yu was arrested that day, he was substituted by Huang Zhong into the big tent, and everyone told everything in front of him, Guan Yu then knew why the Eastern Army had not accepted their surrender, it turned out that Chen Liu was fighting inwardly, and the war in Xuzhou was just an excuse!

At the same time, Guan Yu also admired Wang Sen's subordinate strategists, they were really not ordinary people, and the war between the two places was so precise.

As far as taking Pi is concerned, if it is a normal situation, when Jian Yong comes to sue for peace, as long as General Huang Lao confides in a little information, his side will not fight, as long as he cooperates and delays, when the time comes, Xiapi will surrender without a fight, and he will automatically be in the bag.

But the old general Huang just put a posture of stumbling to the end, which made his eldest brother mess up, in order to protect himself, he had to go out to war to make things bigger, hoping that the royal family and Wang Sen would notice.

But this is exactly what General Huang's strategy is, as long as you send troops to attack the Eastern Army, the identity of the eldest brother's loyal relatives of the Han family will be abolished, and how to clean up the Pi after that is completely in the hands of the Eastern Army.

At the same time, Guan Yu also understood why General Huang dared to let him know all the things after he captured him, it turned out that in their eyes, his eldest brother's army was no longer worthy of being the opponent of the Eastern Army.

At this time, Guan Yu also knew that it was beneficial to talk more, and it might also affect the next peace talks, so he had to help himself and talk about it.

At this time, of course, Wang Sen didn't know these things, and thought that Guan Yu was telling the truth, so he despised Liu Bei....

"Taking advantage of the situation, the idea is good, but Liu Xuande doesn't really think that he can do whatever he wants with his status as a loyal relative of the Han family?

"With my relationship with the princess, I believe that even if I take Liu Bei's life now, Princess Liu Ming will not blame me, Yun Chang, do you believe it?"

If someone else said this, Guan Yu would definitely be furious, the so-called Shi can not be killed, even if he is killed, Guan Yu must step forward and theorize. But the person who can speak is Wang Sen, so it's a different story...

First of all, Wang Sen was telling the truth, and with Wang Sen's personality, Guan Yu knew that he did not mean to look down on his eldest brother in his words, but to talk about things.

Moreover, Guan Yu also knew that Wang Sen didn't know the truth now, so he must have such an opinion.

In the end, there is the relationship between the two, Wang Sen has the grace of knowing him, so Guan Yu endured it.

"My eldest brother is a little sloppy, I'm here to compensate you on behalf of my eldest brother!" After speaking, Guan Yu got up and saluted.

"That's it, for the sake of your friendship with me, this matter is settled, and no matter what, Liu Xuande is still a loyal relative of the Han family, and the royal face still has to be given!"

"In this way, I will let you go back now, you go and inform Liu Xuande, this is the last chance, immediately open the door to the city, and follow me back to Chenliu to meet the princess and the saint today, and wait for the fate."

Guan Yu's eyes lit up, and he finally looked forward to this moment, he immediately arched his hand and said: "My lord is magnanimous, Yun Chang keeps it in mind, I will go back to Brother Ming, and I will definitely give my lord a satisfactory answer." ”

Wang Sen asked someone to prepare a fast horse, and at the same time returned Guan Yu's weapons and clothes to him, and waved his hand to let him leave.

Guan Yu was grateful in his heart, glanced at Wang Sen and turned to leave.

Then Wang Sen looked at all the soldiers of the Eastern Army.

"Hansheng, well done, I didn't expect you to recover Xiapi so quickly, it's really a disaster!"

"Now you adjust your soldiers and horses, and prepare to receive Xiapi, as for the others, pack up and go to join the Western Army."

Huang Zhong knew that Wang Sen was preparing for the end, but Chen Liu's matter was not over yet, and everyone couldn't leave, so Huang Zhong made an excuse to delay.

"My lord, Guan Yu just went back, and he hasn't said anything about Xiapi! Isn't it a bit too hasty to withdraw now? ”

"Even if we recover Xiapi, but after such a long war here, Xiapi is already in disarray, and we still need a lot of manpower to build, how can we leave so quickly?"

"Don't worry, Hansheng, Liu Bei will definitely be surrendered this time, even for the construction of Xiapi you mentioned, there is no need for so many people at all, as long as one or two people are left."

Now Wang Sen just wants to quickly solve the problem of Xuzhou, so that he can return to Chenliu, let the generals of Cao Mansion and the palace sit down and have a good chat, and resolve the estrangement between them, otherwise I really don't know what else they will do.

Seeing that Wang Sen was so resolute, Huang Zhong had no choice but to go down to prepare, and at the same time, the others also dispersed and packed up...

Outside the big tent, Huang Zhong came to Kuai Yue and Liu Ye's side and asked, "Yidu, Ziyang, is there no news from Lord Jia?" Are we really going to leave like this? ”

"Brother Huang, Lord Jia's side really didn't give us any tasks, it shouldn't be, could it be that Caofu's side admitted defeat?"

After Kuai Yue finished speaking, Liu Ye also wondered on the side, "It shouldn't be, if Cao Fu loses, Lord Jia will notify us as soon as possible." ”

"But there's no news at all, what the hell is going on?"

"Hey, don't worry about it, let's take one step at a time, and then there's no news, what should we do." Huang Zhong thought about it and finally made a decision.

Liu Ye and Kuai Yue had no choice but to nod and go back to prepare.

It didn't take long for news to come from Xiapi that Liu Bei finally opened the city gate and accepted the surrender, and when Wang Sen learned about it, he immediately informed Huang Zhong of the matter.

And Huang Zhong also took over the next Pi on behalf of his soldiers, and at the same time replaced Liu Bei and others in the account of the commander of the Eastern Army.

Wang Sen and Liu Bei are not the first time to meet, I remember that at that time in the Tiger Prison, Liu Bei's three brothers were still soldiers under Gongsun Zhan, although Wang Sen was Guan Yu's general, but the fat-headed and big-eared man next to Guan Yu still gave Wang Sen a deep impression.

Now that they meet again, Wang Sen sighed that Liu Bei's ability is extraordinary, and it is really rare that he has come to this point in just three years.

And when Liu Bei saw Wang Sen, he was also full of emotion, he had no real power to lead the imperial chef back then, but he turned into a powerful princess and a powerful minister.

And there are countless capable people under him, and they are really more popular than people, but Liu Bei only complained in his heart about these words, and on the surface, he still looked respectful and made a big salute.

"Grass people Liu Xuande, see Lord Wang!" Although Liu Bei entered Xuzhou, his identity was not confirmed by the royal family, and he was not an official position granted by Emperor Xian, so he could only be said to be a grass man in front of Wang Sen.

Wang Sen waved his hand and signaled to be exempt,

"Liu Xuande, you are really a capable person! The nameless and shareless actually occupied Xuzhou, which is really enough to experience harm. ”

At this time, Liu Bei became nervous, he was afraid that Wang Sen would mention this matter, this is a kind of secession, a kind of rebellion, Liu Bei stepped forward and bowed to the ground and explained: "Lord Wang, this is really forced by the times." ”

"When Lu Bu attacked Xuzhou, it happened that I was also in Xuzhou, and Master Tao didn't know where I learned that I was a loyal relative of the Han family, and I would give Xuzhou to me whatever I said."

"There is no way, the grass people have to accept it temporarily, and they want to report to the court after repelling Lu Bu, but they never thought that this battle would last so long, so the matter was delayed, I hope everyone will find out."

"Oh? But as far as I know, Lu Bu attacked Xuzhou only with the approval of Emperor Xian, and you resist like this, where do you think the saint is today? ”

"Lord Wang, the grass people really don't know about this, Lu Bu is a chaotic minister and thief, and he is abusive, how can Emperor Xian pardon him?" Liu Bei quibbled.

"Okay, good answer, Liu Xuande, you really have great talent."

"The reason why I asked you this is that I don't mean anything else, just to prepare you, Emperor Xian and Princess Liu Ming will definitely ask you this."

"At the same time, the identity of your loyal relatives of the Han family will also be verified, and at that time, Emperor Xian and Princess Liu Ming will definitely return your identity."

Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and he just wanted to thank Wang Sen for his kindness, but Wang Sen's next words made Liu Bei's heart chill...

"However, from now on, you will stay by Emperor Xian's side and be a courtier!"

Although Wang Sen's words are good, everyone knows that Wang Sen's actions are equivalent to sentencing Liu Bei to death...

The so-called courtiers around Emperor Xian are just those in Emperor Chen's party, not only have no power at all, but they can't leave Emperor Xian for half a step.

Liu Bei was dumbfounded, and at the same time, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other Liu Bei's subordinates were also anxious...

Liu Bei also fought for the first time, "Lord Wang, although I also want to leave Emperor Xian's side, but if there is chaos today, the court is the time to employ people, as a loyal relative of the Han family, how can I enjoy it in peace, please take back my life, or let me fight on the battlefield!" ”

Liu Bei's words were very touching, Wang Sen had already expected this, he smiled slightly, and suddenly realized, "Oh? So you want to lead the troops! ”

"In that case, I will introduce you to my eldest brother Cao Cao, and the use of troops in the imperial court will be managed by my eldest brother." After speaking, he looked at Cao Cao on the side.

How could Cao Cao not see what Wang Sen meant, and shook his head, "Brother Sen, I want to too, but you also know the relationship between those people under me and the courtiers (Cao Mansion and the Imperial Party), aren't you embarrassed?" ”

Wang Sen turned his head and pretended to be impatient, "Brother Xuande, you heard it, it's not that I won't help you, Brother Cao really doesn't dare to accept it!" ”

Liu Bei was speechless for a moment, he already knew about Chen Liu's affairs from Guan Yu, originally he wanted to take the opportunity to enter the princess's mansion and work under Princess Liu Ming, but now that he was made by Wang Sen like this, he had no chance at all.
