Chapter 367: Zhang Liao Descends to Wei
Xiao Guan.
This pass was quiet, and the atmosphere was gloomy.
Now Xiao County and Xu County have been completely occupied by the soldiers and horses of the Wei army, Xiao Pass has been surrounded by the front and back, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of Zhang Liao have been heavily surrounded, and it is difficult to fly.
But Zhang Liao was still supporting himself and did not choose to surrender.
"General, let's surrender!"
Xiao Guan, in the lobby, all the generals gathered, the atmosphere was a little depressing, and a pair of eyes looked at the main general Zhang Liao who was sitting in the first place, and the last general couldn't help but whisper.
The news that Lu Bu had surrendered to Wu had already come from Xiapi had a great impact on them, and when Lu was gone, the so-called loyalty would no longer exist.
In the eyes of the Wei army, they may have only one choice, surrender!
"Surrender?"
When Zhang Liao heard this, he raised his head, and a cold glow in his eyes swept directly over the voices of the generals, and asked lightly, "Do you all think so?" β
When everyone heard this, they trembled one by one, and they didn't choose to answer, but just hung their heads slightly and remained silent, which already explained their attitude.
"A certain family understands, you all go out!"
Zhang Liao looked at it, and immediately understood, it seemed that the military spirit had collapsed, thinking of this, his face smiled a little bitterly, and then waved his hand, and said softly: "I need to think about it, there is no order from XX, within Xiao Pass, everyone is on guard." β
"No!"
The generals nodded and walked out.
"Bongxian!"
Zhang Liao sat quietly in the lobby alone, with a touch of nostalgia in his eyes, as if he saw the scenes of him and Lu Bu Gaoshun sweeping Mobei in the past.
In the past, all three of them were appointed under Ding Yuan's command, starting from a small soldier. Later, they swept the entire Mobei, and at that time, they had ideals and momentum.
But I don't know when it started to change.
I guess after entering the Central Plains.
Ding Yuan's death caused a gap between him and Lu Bu.
He knew that Ding Yuan was not killed by Lu Bu. But it is true that Lu Bu's thought is different, the world only knows that Lu Bu is Ding Yuan's righteous son, but what he doesn't know is that he and Gao Shun are also Ding Yuan's sons of the moth.
Lu Bu is the boss, fierce enough, strong enough. has a sense of responsibility, rushes to the front in everything, he is the second, responsible for planning the layout, Gao Shun is the third. A stuffy gourd, but it is the firmest backing of the two of them, and the trapping camp under his command is Lu Bu's most elite soldiers and horses, with eight hundred traps, which can block ten thousand troops.
Ding Yuan had no children under his knees, and regarded the three of them as his own sons, teaching them everything hand in hand and bringing them out. was brought from Bingzhou to the Central Plains, but Lu Bu failed to protect Ding Yuan in the end.
He didn't say it, Lu Bu didn't say it. But both of them knew in their hearts that Ding Yuan's death would make them unable to return to the trust they had never trusted.
"I really don't want to be your enemy!"
Zhang Liao's face was a little struggling, and finally muttered to himself, saying lightly.
It's not that he doesn't want to surrender to Cao Cao, but he's just a little worried. Once he surrendered to Cao Cao, he should be faithful to the Lord. Wu Wei is a mortal enemy, so he will inevitably fight against Lu Bu Gaoshun on the battlefield one day.
This is something he has not been able to make up his mind. The reason for the support of the dead gritted teeth.
"General, there is a messenger from the Wei army under the pass, asking to see the general!" At this time, a guard quickly walked in, interrupted Zhang Liao's thoughts, and said respectfully.
"Who is it?"
Zhang Liao raised his head, his eyes crossed with a cold essence, and asked.
"King Wei!" The guard's face was a little solemn, and he said in a deep voice.
"Cao Cao? How many people did he bring? β
When Zhang Liao heard this, his face changed slightly, he was a little surprised, and asked hurriedly.
"Report to the general, King Wei came alone!" Guard's Road,
"How daring!"
When Zhang Liao heard this, his face became stern, and he couldn't believe it, and there was a very complicated light spinning in his pupils.
He was silent for a while, and then said lightly: "Let him in!" β
"No!"
After almost a quarter of an hour, the guards walked in directly with Cao Cao.
Cao Cao's demeanor is still the same, wearing a brocade robe, his steps are firm, his expression is extremely calm, and in the face of these fierce and vicious guards, he did not have the slightest fear, and walked in very safely.
"Wenyuan, we haven't seen each other for a long time!"
After Cao Cao walked in, he squinted, looked at the man in armor again, and said with a smile.
"King Wei, you are so bold!"
Zhang Liao waved his hand directly, retreated all the people in the lobby, and then looked at Cao Cao, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, falling on Cao Cao's body, and said indifferently: "Alone dare to enter a certain family's military camp, aren't you afraid that someone will kill you?" β
"Hehe, if it were someone else under Lu Bu's command, Lone would be really afraid, but you, Zhang Wenyuan, Lone would really rest assured!"
Cao Cao didn't feel the slightest cramped, regarded this place as his own territory, sat down directly, leisurely, and then said lightly: "If Zhang Liao wants to kill Cao Cao, Cao Cao has already died in Luoyang!" β
"Hmph, it's not the same as it used to be!"
"Some people will change, but some people can't be changed by time, and to this day, Lone still believes in Zhang Wenyuan." Cao Cao said.
"Even if you don't kill you, it's the worst thing, and if someone directly kidnaps you, you can be killed."
Zhang Liao's face froze slightly, it was undeniable that Cao Cao's words made his heart a little excited, but his face quickly became cold, and he said coldly.
"Kill it?"
When Cao Cao heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Zhang Liao, and asked, "Where are you going?" Wu Guo? β
He dared to walk in alone, naturally he was not reckless.
As the so-called son of a daughter can't sit down, as the king of Wei and the lord of a country, if he just recruits one person, no matter how good this person is, there is no need for him to go to risk alone.
The reason why he dared to walk in was because he believed in Zhang Liao.
Cao Cao is suspicious, this is his character, but as a big hero, he can trust the people he trusts to the end.
In the past, between Cao Cao and Lu Bu, Zhang Liao chose Lu Bu because of his righteousness. Now that Lu Bu has surrendered to Wu, the situation is different.
Zhang Liao is now faced with a choice again, between Wu and Wei, and he believes that Zhang Liao must choose Wei.
This is the self-confidence of Cao Cao, the king of Wei.
"Where are you going?"
Zhang Liao was slightly stunned, and his eyes were a little confused. He also asked softly, but he was asking himself.
LΓΌ Bu has already surrendered.
If he led his troops back to Xiapi, he could only follow the state of Wu.
Wu State is not bad, but in addition to Lu Bu in his heart, the remaining one is Cao Cao, who has always been optimistic, if between Wu and Wei. He must choose the State of Wei.
"Wen Yuan, isn't it worth believing in Lonely?"
Cao Cao's gaze saw Zhang Liao's current struggle, so his gaze was very sincere and asked directly.
"King Wei, Liao believes in King Wei. Since you and I met in Luoyang in the past, Liao has believed that the King of Wei is a person who has achieved great things, but now Liao is not alone, and more than 20,000 soldiers under a certain command are soldiers of the Lu State! β
Zhang Liao groaned for a while, and said bitterly.
"Wenyuan, the country of Lu is gone!"
Cao Cao said lightly: "Now you are all free bodies, and you can accept them all!" β
"General!"
At this time, a guard walked in again. whispered: "Someone is here!" β
"Let him in!"
Zhang Liao's eyes moved slightly, and he glanced at Cao Cao, not tabooing him. Said directly to the guard.
"No!"
The guard nodded and walked quickly.
"Isn't King Wei curious about what the envoy of Xiapi wants to say?" Zhang Liao squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice.
"It doesn't matter what the envoy of Xiapi says, the key is what Zhang Liao thinks, today Gu personally walked into Xiao Pass, and the sincerity of Wei has been shown. Thou shalt give Lone an answer! Cao Cao said.
"King Wei, I have met the messenger of Xiapi. I'll give you an answer! β
Zhang Liao thought for a moment, and his eyes crossed a decisive light. Firm Word.
"Fang Li, meet the general!"
At this time, a young man walked in from the door of the lobby, and this person was one of Lu Bu's personal guards, a native of Jiuyuan, whose name was Fangli.
"Fang Li, the king asked you to come, what do you want to say to General Ben?" Zhang Liao and Fang Li were no strangers, squinted their eyes, and asked directly.
"General!"
Fang Li smiled slightly, arched his hand, and said, "This time, the king has assigned two tasks, one is to send the general's wife and son, and the second is to convey a word to the general!" β
"The country of Lu is gone, the king of Lu is gone, Lone is defeated, Lone has surrendered, Wenyuan, you are free, where to go, you choose for yourself."
Fang Li finished Lu Bu's sentence expressionlessly, and then arched his hand: "General, a certain task has been completed, and now it's time to go back and reply to the prince!" β
"Wait, Fang Li, bring me a message to the prince!"
When Zhang Liao heard this, his face was a little complicated, and finally he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, his eyes glanced at Cao Cao again, and after thinking for a long time, he made up his mind, looked at Fang Li, and said.
"Please make it clear to the general!"
"You and the king said that he, Lu Fengxian, has been Zhang Wenyuan's brother all his life."
Zhang Liao's eyes flashed with a touch of determination, and he said faintly: "But from now on, we will each be our own masters, if we meet on the battlefield, we will do our best, life and death, this is my Zhang Liao's respect for him." β
"No!"
Fang Li was slightly stunned, didn't say anything, nodded directly, and walked down.
"The King of Wei is above, but he is willing to accept Zhang Liao's surrender!" Now that he had made a decision, Zhang Liao was much cleaner, stood up directly, bowed to Cao Cao beside him, and bowed.
"Hahaha!"
Even if Cao Cao was very sure that Zhang Liao would surrender to him, he was still a little excited at this moment when Zhang Liao surrendered, and couldn't help laughing, and then helped Zhang Liao up, and said: "If you are alone Zhang Wenyuan, Wei can be like a tiger with wings!" β
"Strengthened? The king has won the prize. β
When Zhang Liao heard this, he was slightly moved in his heart, Cao Cao can use this to describe it, which can be said to be extremely important to him.
"No, this is the words of Lonely's heart!"
Cao Cao said with a smile: "Your ability, in the heart of Lone, no one can compare, today Lone will be crowned as the general of Wei Guowei, after the class teacher returns to the dynasty, he will be officially appointed!" β
"The king is heavy, the last general is grateful, and he will be the Wei State in the future, and he will die and do his best!"
Zhang Liao's face straightened, Yan sΓΉ got up, knelt down on one knee again, nodded heavily at Cao Cao, and said very firmly in his words. (To be continued)
