Chapter 642 Han Meng commits suicide
Guo Jia is a first-class civil official, and he is in charge of the affairs of the army, he said this, and the others naturally nodded in agreement, and soon the two legions began to be arranged.
Guo Jia was in the middle, Li Ru was on the left, and Frustration was on the right, and the three ministers stood together, and then the three of them looked at each other thoughtfully, and then laughed as if they had all understood something.
Obviously, at this moment, the three of them saw the other people's thoughts clearly, and they actually had a feeling of coincidence.
After laughing, Guo Jia took the initiative to speak: "Even if we all think the same thing about this matter, let's see who goes up to persuade us." ”
"I think it's better to go to Brother Fu, he was originally from Jizhou, adjacent to Qingzhou, and he is still very influential here, so it is more suitable for him to go than anyone else." Li Ru, the military division of the Sixth Army on the side, spoke.
"Very well, that's what I mean." Guo Jia also nodded in agreement after hearing this.
Seeing that both of them proposed to go by themselves, they were also frustrated. Originally, he was responsible for the death of the high-ranking cadre, but now it is time to make up for the merits, and he will not be polite. After looking at Guo Jia and Li Ru gratefully, he said, "Two adults, then I will go to persuade you to surrender." ”
After saying this, Fu Zhi immediately stepped forward and walked towards the city of Gaoyuan.
What Fu Zhu is doing is to persuade him to surrender, and now that the city is besieged, the Wei army, which has little combat experience, must have already been panicked. Even a rough man like Dian Wei can capture 50,000 soldiers, so with his incorruptible tongue and prestige, how can he lose to a general?
He strode out, and then stood four hundred paces below the city.
Suddenly, a Wenchen appeared under the city, and he also showed his orange official uniform, indicating that his identity was not bad, this move quickly attracted everyone's attention, and everyone naturally looked at his location.
Fu Zhu didn't speak immediately, but waited for himself to attract enough eyeballs before he said out loud: "Soldiers of the Wei Army, I am the military advisor of the Fourth Army of the Celestial Empire, and I am also the second-rank Wenchen of the Celestial Empire. ”
After reporting his identity first, he said slowly: "I know that we were enemies before, but that is not something you can choose, current affairs are like this. But now that you are surrounded, we will soon choose to take the siege. Explosives must have been heard of by any of you, so I might as well tell you that this time we have brought a lot of these things, and at the moment of a short time, countless explosives will explode in front of the city, and at that time, your so-called fortified high garden will become a piece of flying ash, and you may also become a part of the black ash. ”
At this point, he paused deliberately, and then he saw that the soldiers above the tower began to talk to each other, and it was obvious that his words had made no small difference. Knowing that it was time, he continued: "Heaven has the virtue of good life, before launching the final attack, I still want to say again, if you can surrender, I promise that no one will threaten your life when you enter the city for a while, but on the contrary, if anyone continues to resist, there will be no mercy!" ”
As a civil servant, there was a trace of chill on his body at this moment, how to say that he was also a military advisor of a legion, although he didn't need himself to kill the enemy in battle, but he had seen a lot of corpses and a sea of blood, and he had a terrifying momentum on his body.
"Where to go, everyone has a scale in their hearts, and in a quarter of an hour we will do it, you can choose for yourself." After saying this last sentence, Fu Zhu had already ridden back, he had already said what he should say, and he believed that what to do next, these Wei troops would measure themselves.
"Look, that person is Fu Zhu, a famous man in Jizhou, and an upright person."
"Yes, I've heard his name too, and these words are from him, so they shouldn't be false."
"Alas, now that we are surrounded, and they have powerful secret weapons, it will be very difficult to defend the city."
"What is very difficult, it is simply impossible to hold it, as soon as the secret weapon comes out, it will be a matter of time before the city is broken."
"That's right, as soon as the explosives come out, it's impossible to hold this place at all. I'm ready to surrender anyway, these Wei generals don't treat us as human beings at all, if it weren't for the mercy of the generals of the Celestial Empire just now, I'm afraid that our tens of thousands of brothers outside would have died. ”
The sound of discussion was endless, and just after the frustration turned around and left, the Wei soldiers on the city wall really had different thoughts and began to think about what to do next.
General Han Meng naturally saw everything in his eyes, and even some soldiers were talking softly about the surrender, and he knew it.
In normal times, if someone dares to talk about surrendering, he naturally wants to arrest and kill, but now he doesn't dare to do this, he is afraid that his actions will anger these soldiers and cause a mutiny.
"Second son, you did your best." At this moment, Han Meng had to sigh softly in his heart, he had already seen his destiny, and his life was not long. It's just that out of loyalty to Cao Pi, he will not surrender, and he also puts his hope on the second son, pointing to him to take care of his family after he escapes.
A quarter of an hour is just a moment, and as soon as the hour comes, the soldiers of the Celestial Empire can be seen rushing towards the city under the four cities of Gaoyuan, and there are teams of archers under each city to protect the security.
It's just unthinkable that without waiting for the archers of the Celestial Empire to do anything, the Wei army on the upper floor of Gaoyuan City has already retreated to the city, they all know the power of explosives, and they have learned it when they killed Gao Gan before. If the gates were bombed, you can imagine what damage it would have caused, and how dangerous it would have been to stand on top of the towers at that time.
Not to mention that most of them had already made the decision to surrender, let alone become enemies of the Celestial Empire soldiers at this time.
The explosives were easily sent to the city, and then ignited, and then the explosion sounded, because the four city gates were blasted at the same time, and Gaoyuan City was shaken, as if there was a real earthquake.
Four gates were blasted at the same time, something that had not happened before. In the past, it was only necessary to blow up one city gate to attack the city, but this time the reason why it was done was because the four army corps wanted to avenge the killing of the senior general and 50,000 soldiers, and the other was that their troops were enough to defend the four city gates.
Explosions rang out, and the originally seemingly solid city wall of Gaoyuan City collapsed by nearly one-fifth, revealing a large area of portals, making the role of the city wall basically lost.
"General Zhang, I'll leave everything to you." Dian Wei smiled and looked at Zhang He, the commander of the Fourth Army Corps on the side.
Gao Gan and the 50,000 soldiers of the 4th Legion were killed by these Wei troops, and now that they finally have a chance to take revenge, Zhang He naturally will not give up. Fortunately, Dian Wei also knows these and has a heart of fulfillment, so he has the current move.
"Thank you, General." Zhang He clasped his fists gratefully and said, "Don't worry, I will only kill those Wei troops who do not surrender, and the Wei generals here will be killed regardless of whether they surrender or not, I want to comfort General Gao's spirit in the sky." ”
"Okay, just go, with my old pawn outside, no one can escape from the city." Dian Wei said very approvingly. Although it seems a little inappropriate to kill the enemy generals who surrendered, but they just want to avenge the senior cadres, so what do they do? As for the spread of the matter, there is nothing, and the emperor Zhang Chao will never do anything to his generals for the sake of an enemy general.
originally thought that Dian Wei would stop himself from doing this, after all, Zhang Chao's love for talent is also well known, this person has also been the chief of the emperor before, if he intervenes, Zhang He really can't do it. Fortunately, people did not object, but supported it, and ordered the soldiers of the Sixth Army not to enter the city in front of him, so that they could strictly guard outside the four city gates, which clearly meant to assist him.
"Brother Dian, thank you." At this moment, Zhang He thanked Dian Wei from the bottom of his heart, and then raised his hand, and rushed towards Gaoyuan City with the army of the Four Legions with a nine-curved gun.
Zhang He led his army into the city, and indeed encountered some rebellious Wei troops. Most of these people were people who had followed Cao Cao for many years, and they were still very loyal.
It's a pity that the number of these people is still too small, and they can't be on a large scale, and in the face of the main force of the four legions, it didn't take long to kill all of them.
The elite of the Wei army was killed, and the other recruits who joined later chose to surrender very well, they didn't want to die yet, they joined the Wei army for just money, even if they had a better way to go outside, what else was there to worry about?
Therefore, after the Fourth Army entered the city, it occupied it with almost no decent resistance, and Zhang He received information shortly after entering the city, saying that Han Meng, the commander of the Wei army, had committed suicide in the county government in the city.
Han Meng actually died, and he committed suicide, which made Zhang He feel like he had a heavy punch on the cotton. Thinking that this person knew that he was bound to die, and it was impossible for him to be Zhang He's opponent in terms of fighting, he committed suicide and died.
"That's it, take all the captives out of the city, and clean up the battlefield at the same time, once you find that there are people in the city who dare to hide the Wei army without permission, you will be convicted of collaborating with the enemy." Zhang He waved his hand with some interest, originally thought that there would be a big battle, which could avenge Gao Gan and 50,000 soldiers, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth.
Gaoyuan City was occupied in this way, the enemy general Han Meng committed suicide, and when the news reached Guo Jia's ears outside the city, he nodded as if he had expected it, to be honest, the two legions came to Gaoyuan City, and there was such a powerful firearm as explosives, and Han Meng's death was only a matter of time.
