Chapter 82: The Sin Is Unforgivable

Perhaps after Xu He's rebellion a few years ago, Guo Jia did not treat the Yizhou Hao clan who followed Xu He's rebellion to the point of extermination, so Zhang Baiqi felt that he had the confidence to surrender to Guo Jia.

Regardless of whether Zhang Baiqi begged to surrender out of helplessness or thought that Guo Jia would remember the old love network, but Guo Jia's last time he was lenient with the Yizhou wealthy clan was just a strategy to rule Yizhou, dividing the Yizhou wealthy clan internally, and there was no idea of being gentle and kind.

When Zhang Baiqi resolutely embarked on the road of rebellion, the consequence of his reckless move was to completely break with and oppose Guo Jia.

All the credit of the past has been erased.

Guo Jia and Zhang Baiqi are hostile and enemies of each other.

To be merciful to one's enemies is to be cruel to oneself!

"Zhang Baiqi is more naΓ―ve than I imagined, he said the opposite, and he said that he would surrender, could it be that I didn't kill enough people or was too merciful to him?"

Guo Jia sneered.

Once, he forgave Zhang Baiqi once, thinking that Zhang Baiqi could remember his surname for a long time, but he didn't expect that there were really stupid people who died unrepentantly.

Qin Mi was silent, Zhang Baiqi really has nothing to sympathize with, but does Guo Jia give the impression of being too benevolent? There are a few.

In the years when Yizhou was peaceful, Guo Jia almost never lowered his anger, and he was a harmless smile in front of everyone, and he became more and more generous to the people, officials, whether it was policy or treatment, it seemed that Guo Jia was like a monarch of the world, although he pursued the rule of law, but before the heavy punishment, he would send someone to review the case, for fear of wrongdoing or excessive sentencing.

Whether Guo Jia is merciful or kind, Qin Mi knows that if others think that such a monarch will not kill people and will not have thunderous anger, it will be very wrong, Guo Jia is humble on the surface, and he is as good as water, but in fact he has reached the point where joy and anger are invisible, the best mask is not expressionless, but always smiling, these officials often can't guess Guo Jia's thoughts, and if they can't guess it means that they can't fully understand Guo Jia's thoughts, so that officials can't do what they like, they can only do their own rules.

The heavy sword has no edge, Guo Jia's edge has long been restricted, but if he is not angry, he will definitely make all directions tremble.

Cao Ying and Yuan Shao angered Guo Jia, Cao Ying was almost buried in Guanzhong, originally to reap the profits, but in the end he still lost Xiahoudun, Yuan Shao's 200,000 army was annihilated in Guanzhong, Wen Chou Ju Yike died in a foreign land, even Liu Biao did not set foot in Yizhou half a step at all, and was forced by Guo Jia to tremble and compromise, angering Guo Jia, he had to pay the price.

Zhang Baiqi is insignificant, but it makes Guo Jia even more angry, there is nothing more chilling than stabbing his own person in the back.

"Reply to Zhang Yan, Zhang Bai rides the three clans, young and old, and kills correctly! If Zhang Baiqi wants to surrender, give him a good time, otherwise, he will slowly consume with him, anyway, now he is a turtle in an urn and can't escape. ”

Guo Jia was ruthless, and at the moment when Zhang Baiqi rebelled, there was no room for mercy between them.

Cao Ying has an extremely cruel military law.

Surrender early!

If a large army besieges the city, those who surrender will not be forgiven!

This is a way to deter the enemy, but there is some truth to it.

The lonely city was besieged, almost the end of defeat, surrender at this time, out of helpless survival instinct, Cao Ying did not pardon the surrender troops in this situation, the purpose is to kill chickens and monkeys, to show the enemy in the future.

Don't let my army surround your city!

Otherwise, I won't accept your surrender!

The opportunity to surrender only exists when the victory or defeat is not decided, if after the siege, the victory is in hand, and the besieged people want to surrender again, sorry, it's too late!

Zhang Baiqi was besieged in Hanping County, ten dead and lifeless, at this time he also wanted to give his descendants a way to live by begging, it was simply whimsical, it was not that Guo Jia did not give him a way to live, but he himself insisted on going to the palace of the king of Hades.

When the news that Guo Jia did not accept Zhang Baiqi's begging and surrender reached Zhang Yan's camp outside Hanping County, Zhang Yan's face was expressionless, and he walked out, intending to kill Zhang Baiqi's entire family on the spot.

Deng Zhi stood in front of Zhang Yan and said, "General, it's better to trick Zhang Baiqi and tell him that the lord accepts his begging, but wants him to kill himself in front of him, so that Hanping County can be broken in the blink of an eye." ”

Soldiers are not tired of deceit, and there is nothing that cannot be used in war.

Zhang Yan sighed inexplicably, shook his head and said, "Give Zhang Baiqi some dignity." ”

Begging is already a shame, if the death is not clear, Zhang Yan really can't do it.

Zhang Bai rode a dead end, how to die, or leave it to Zhang Baiqi to choose by himself.

In the air, Zhang Yan once again brought out the old and young of the three clans of Zhang Baiqi, and knelt down by the river one by one.

As soon as Zhang Yan appeared, Zhang Baiqi, who had been paying attention to the movement on the other side of the river, appeared at the head of the city.

"Feiyan, what did the lord say?"

Zhang Baiqi saw Zhang Yan dragging his little one out, knowing that it was not good, but he still asked more.

Zhang Yan did not answer Zhang Baiqi, and waved the butcher knife without the slightest hesitation.

Blood splattered and screams erupted.

A human head rolled into the river.

Zhang Baiqi was shocked and shouted at Zhang Yan in grief: "Feiyan! How can you do it?! Have you forgotten? He is the sixth son, and he and your eldest son were brothers the year before last! Swift! Stop! ”

Zhang Yan was unmoved, and killed Zhang Baiqi's whole family one by one, Zhang Yan, who was splashed with blood, stood in a pool of blood and looked up at the head of Hanping County, Zhang Baiqi's crumbling bloated body came into view.

"Zhang Bai rides, go out of the city to fight!"

Zhang Baiqi, who was lost in despair, suddenly straightened his waist, leaned out of the city and yelled at Zhang Yan: "Zhang Yan, I will break your body into ten thousand pieces!" ”

"Come on! I'm right here, out and fighting to the death! ”

Zhang Yan did not retreat an inch, his momentum was high, louder than Zhang Baiqi's roar, and the roar seemed to penetrate into the sky.

Deterred by Zhang Yan's condescending momentum like a tiger pounced, he hurriedly took a few steps back, trembling all over, and the saber he was carrying fell to the ground, he didn't dare, he didn't dare to go out of the city to fight...... At this moment, he wanted revenge, but he was also timid and afraid of death, he couldn't survive, but he didn't dare to die.

Zhang Baiqi disappeared into the city, and Zhang Yan, who was covered in blood, came to the river, bent down and scooped up the river water to wash away the filth on his body.

But as soon as he picked up the water in both hands, he saw the blood floating in the river out of the corner of his eye, and he suddenly woke up, and in this river, there was the head of Zhang Baiqi's family...... Deng Zhi came behind Zhang Yan, and when Zhang Yan was stunned, Deng Zhi hesitated for a while before asking, "General, is Zhang Baiqi's words true?" Is his son and the general's eldest son really married to brothers with different surnames? ”

Looking at the blood-stained river, Zhang Yan's face did not change, and nodded imperceptibly.

He and Zhang Baiqi had no intersection before they defected to Guo Jia, and at that time, the Yellow Turban Army scattered all over the country fought separately, and there was no leader who could come out to integrate the Yellow Turbans, and the generals from all over the country did not have a plan to form an alliance and advance and retreat together. After taking refuge in Guo Jia, Zhang Yan and Zhang Baiqi's friendship can only be understood by colleagues, there is no like-minded or brotherly relationship, no one isolates Zhang Baiqi, Zhang Baiqi not only has a relationship with Zhang Yan, but also has a relationship with Xu Chudianwei and others, but at the moment when Zhang Baiqi rebelled, their private relationship was completely cut off due to official business.

"You should know that Zhang Baiqi and I are both from yellow scarves, right?"

Zhang Yan shook his hand, stood up, and looked up at Hanping County, which was waiting for him, with a few traces of remembrance flashing in his eyes.

Deng Zhi is young, he was appointed by Guo Jia to be sent to Zhang Yan when he was less than twenty years old, he has an exciting future, but for many major events in the past that affect the direction of history, he only knows about it through hearsay, and he doesn't know the details at all.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion was far away for him, and when the Yellow Turban Thief was reflected in his eyes, Zhang Jiao was already dead, and Taiping Dao was also stepping towards the end of destruction.

Even today, few people in the world know why Zhang Yan, Zhang Baiqi, Xu He, and Sima Ju took refuge in Guo Jia, who was difficult to protect himself.

At that time, Guo Jia had no soldiers, horses, money and food, and he was still a prisoner of the imperial court, and no one with a normal mind would choose to take refuge in such a young man.

Just like when Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo, if there was no such background, the strategist Chen Gong probably would not have chosen to take refuge in Lu Bu, and now I don't understand the fact and timing that Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo at that time as a great hero to eliminate harm for the people, and many people find it difficult to understand why Chen Gong would take refuge in the capricious and brave Lu Bu.

"At that time, millions of disciples of Taiping Dao followed the great sages and good teachers to hold high the banner of righteousness, intending to subvert the Han family and create a peaceful rule of the world, but it was a pity that the army was defeated in Luoyang, and the thirty-six square canals were handsome, dead and wounded, or surrendered or fled, and the rest of the Yellow Turbans living in various places lived a precarious life. We and hundreds of thousands of people are hiding in the mountains and forests, and we can't cultivate the fields because we have to fight at any time, and we will run out of food and die. Lack of clothing, lack of food, grass roots and bark are commonplace, and I still remember the taste of that time, which is unbearable. ”

Zhang Yan's tone was flat, but she said something that made people feel heavy.

Nowadays, Zhang Yan is beautiful, worry-free about food and clothing, and a general in the army, he has long been not worried about food, clothing, housing and transportation, Deng Zhi only saw Zhang Yan's bright side, but he didn't know that once upon a time, Zhang Yan could only be regarded as a group of refugee leaders, who wanted money but no money, and lacked food.

"I later understood, based on the troubled times, if you don't have the ability to settle down, then follow a Ming Lord, to be able to serve the Lord, I feel honored, the Lord said to let the people of Taiping Dao live and work in peace and contentment, less than ten years, the Lord will fulfill the promise of the time, Sima Ju is dead, Xu He is dead, Zhang Baiqi is also dying, the rest of the Yellow Turban generals will soon be left with me alone, if someone asks me if the Lord is prejudiced against the Yellow Turban Generals, I will definitely let that person take a look at the life of the Taiping Road people, All this was given by the lord, and the death of Sima Ju and others just proved why the Yellow Turban Uprising failed, I handed over my fate to the lord, and I would no longer think about him, I, Zhang Yan, have been a minister all my life, and I will die to the ground, not to mention that I am a husband, so why not die? The great sage and good teacher want to create a peaceful and prosperous world, and on this day, the main guild will come true! ”
