Chapter 488: Siege Puyang

Guo Jia thinks that cutting land and paying tribute is not the most important, the key is that if the Han family can be crowned king and marquis, then it is the best.

Now that the territory under the jurisdiction of the state pastor is temporarily sufficient, the official position has also reached the extreme of the ministers, and the difference is only one title, although the state pastor can fight for the Han family by himself, but it will be more justified if it is handed over to Liu Dai on this condition.

At the same time, Liu Dai's conditions do not represent our wishes, and the two sides want to negotiate and reach an agreement, the right to speak lies on the side of the state pastor, and whether it is a huge amount of money or land, etc., it is determined by the state pastor, and there is naturally a way to make it difficult for Liu Dai to grow.

Moreover, even if the two sides reached an agreement, after Liu Dai fulfilled his promise, if the governor did not want to tolerate him, it might be easier to take Puyang City again, and perhaps it would not be necessary to do it in the name of the adult.

Although it is a pity to agree to Liu Dai, if Puyang City is attacked at this time, Liu Dai knows that there is no way to live, and he will definitely fight to the death in the future, and when the time comes, we will not be able to avoid causing some losses.

It is better to agree to Liu Dai's conditions first, and then capture him in one fell swoop when he slacks. At this time, the head has already been left, and it will only be a matter of course to cut down Liu Dai at that time.

In fact, leaving Liu Dai can also play a role in balancing and balancing others, and now the state pastor has taken so much of the land of Yanzhou, it is necessary to divide it with Qiao Mao Taishou and Ding Yuan Taishou, if these two people sit big at that time, it is not necessarily a bad thing to have Liu Dai to check and balance, and the so-called heart of defense is indispensable!

Such a few points, Guo Jia stole thought. It is more practical to get some benefits from Liu Dai first. In the current situation. Come to think of it, as long as the conditions are not too outrageous, Liu Dai will agree to it.

Of course, it is still necessary to send troops to Puyang, and when our troops are in the city, it will become much more advantageous to negotiate, and it will be easier for Liu Dai to set an alliance under the city."

Facing the inquiring eyes of several people, Guo Jia took the initiative to explain, he was actually prepared when he had this construction.

"What the military advisor said is not unreasonable, but the specific agreement will require more consideration by the military advisor at that time," Zhang Ning said.

"What the military advisor said is certainly true. It would be a pity if he gave up attacking Liu Dai just now," Zhang Liao said.

"Well, that's true," Wu Anguo echoed.

“”

Several people heard what Guo Jia said, and then there was a discussion, but Gao Shun just listened to the words of a few people and did not speak again.

Although they couldn't reach an agreement immediately, judging from the expressions and words of several people, they almost all recognized Guo Jia's identity as a military advisor, and intentionally or unintentionally helped Yang Rui win Guo Jia with words, which Yang Rui had already felt.

Several advisors and generals were able to communicate and coordinate with each other objectively. It is undoubtedly a good atmosphere, and Yang Rui is also happy to see it. So there was no rush to speak.

As for Gao Shun's lack of words at this time, Yang Rui is also accustomed to it, just like before, if Gao Shun has his own specific thoughts or information, he will definitely say it, and at this time, he doesn't have too many words to say that he is not yet mature.

"As you have seen, I already know it, why don't we temporarily march to Puyang City, and then make a decision on the way?"

"Listen to the orders of the lord (the state shepherd)!"

“”

After several people discussed for a while, in the end, Yang Rui came forward and decided to march to Puyang City first, and then discuss how to respond to Liu Dai's begging to surrender.

In fact, at this time, Yang Rui himself did not finally make up his mind, whether to kill Liu Dai completely, or to obtain vested interests, the two plans actually have their own advantages.

So Yang Rui first reorganized his troops and horses, and set out early in the morning of the second day, approaching the direction of Puyang City. There were only 20,000 fourth-order Yellow Turban soldiers left in Guanxian County to defend the city and guard the Liu Dai soldiers who had been captured before.

Since the start of the war with Liu Dai, Yang Rui's soldiers and horses have captured more than 20,000 people in Liu Dai's army, and it is inconvenient to carry these prisoners, so Yang Rui simply left some more soldiers to guard the county seat of Guanxian County.

In fact, Liu Dai's forces around Guanxian County have long been cleaned up, and there is no one who can pose a threat, so Yang Rui's remaining soldiers are mainly to take care of the prisoners.

Yang Rui's 2780,000 army marched all the way, and there was no Liu Dai's forces along the way, and after two days, they all arrived near Puyang City, and after half a day to force the city to go down, Yang Rui sent an envoy to the city.

"Lord Taishou, Lord Lieyang Prefecture ordered the pawn to come and deliver a book, and send a message for Lord Taishou, hoping that Lord Taishou can meet the conditions proposed within one day"

On the way to Puyang City, Yang Rui and Guo Jia had a lot of exchanges, and after asking Guo Jia about the details of his plans, Yang Rui almost did not hesitate to accept Liu Dai's request for surrender.

Whether it is Guo Jia's claim conditions or the specific agreement to restrict Liu Dai, it is very tricky, which actually leaves two or three traps for Liu Dai, once Yang Rui wants to conquer Liu Dai one day, its progress is definitely much simpler than this time.

Under such circumstances, Yang Rui is of course willing to accept Liu Dai's surrender, but it depends on whether Liu Dai will accept the conditions proposed by his side.

And the messenger who served as the messenger into the city this time was none other than the ordinary 4th-order Yellow Turban soldier who was bolted on the pillar.

After many battles, now the bolt pillar has become a lot more mature from the original young soldier, especially the kind of inner momentum, which he himself could not compare with before, even if he saw Liu Dai at this time, who was a weekly assassin.

Bolt Zhuzi kept in mind the explanation of the military advisor, tried not to be humble or arrogant in his words, and while giving full respect to Liu Dai's tone, he did not deliberately greet Liu Dai, from the fact that he dared to face Liu Dai This detail. It can be clearly seen that the courage of the bolt pillar when facing Liu Dai!

Liu Dai hurriedly took the letter in the hand of the bolt pillar. In front of the bolted pillar, he tore open the letter and read it.

It's no wonder that Liu Dai has such an expression. This was the most difficult time for him, especially after Yang Rui's troops surrounded Puyang City indiscriminately, and he even doubted that the previous begging letter had been delivered to Yang Rui's hands.

Hearing that Yang Rui sent an envoy into the city made Liu Dai breathe a sigh of relief, he knew that there might be a little room for relaxation, and even guessed that Yang Rui's choice to besiege Puyang City was just to increase the bargaining chips in the negotiations.

However, when Liu Dai opened Yang Rui's letter, his face became thicker and heavier the more he looked at it, until he finally couldn't dissolve!

Where is the state pastor still negotiating. The conditions he put forward were no different from asking for his own life!

"So it was"

After seeing Yang Rui's conditions, Liu Dai wanted to tear up the letter on the spot, but when he was about to scold and then prepare to throw the letter on the ground, he found that the pawn who sent the letter from the other party was still in front of him, so Liu Dai forcibly resisted the impulse and stopped halfway through his words.

If it was in normal times, Liu Dai would have suffered such a wretch, but at this time, he couldn't help himself, and he had to forcibly swallow a breath. Then he gave the messenger a smile.

The other party has already come to the city, what can he Liu Dai do?

"Thou hast replied to Lord Lieyang Prefecture. As far as Yan Rongwu Liu Dai thinks about it for half a day"

Liu Dai also discovered that although the other party's messenger was only a 4th order, he had no stage fright, and he didn't show any comfort between his words, and he couldn't find anything wrong.

Liu Dai even suspected that this messenger was a high-ranking military general or strategist, but no matter how you looked at it, the messenger was still the fourth-order pawn, how could he defeat the battle if he was like this!?

Liu Dai's mood at this time has even been affected, and he feels that he is not as good as Yang Rui in any aspect

After Yang Rui surrounded Puyang City, Qiao Mao, who was originally on the south bank of the Yellow River, also crossed the river with the help of Qingzhou boats and found Yang Rui.

To be honest, before Yang Rui's army arrived, in fact, Qiao Mao's troops could start to cross the river, but Qiao Mao now has less than 50,000 troops left, and the number of Liu Dai's defenders in Puyang City is as many as 150,000, Qiao Mao does not have the courage to face Liu Dai alone from the bottom of his heart.

"Lord Zhou Mu is brave, we have taken down Dingtao City, the soldiers of Qingzhou have even more than ten cities, Qiao Mao is far from it! Qiao Mao admires! ”

Qiao Mao received Yang Rui's rescue, and as soon as he saw him, he praised Yang Rui.

"Dingtao Chengjian, Brother Yuan Wei can capture it, which already shows the strength of Brother Tai. And because Dingtao City was besieged, Liu Dai's large number of troops were contained, which was also a great achievement of Yuan Wei."

While Yang Rui sat down with Qiao Mao in his hand, he also praised Qiao Mao's achievements.

After entering the game for such a long time, Yang Rui still has some experience in getting along with NPCs, and thinking about it on the other hand, how can these experiences not apply in reality?

"The army of the Mu of the state has arrived, and Qiao Mao still has forty or fifty thousand soldiers and horses, how about starting to attack the city?" After the two were polite, Qiao Mao said again.

Qiao Mao had a vendetta with Liu Dai, so he was very eager to capture Puyang City.

"Brother Yuan Wei is not in a hurry, Puyang City is not compared to other cities, its moat is wide, the city wall is strong, Rao is our troops are superior, I am afraid it will be difficult to capture for a while, now if I am the commander of the siege of the city, Brother Yuan Wei can be the commander of the troops in the East County to eliminate the power of Liu Dai in various places?

The land of Dongjun was originally the hometown of Brother Yuan Wei, and now it is just the right time to restore Brother Yuanwei's reputation, even if we can't capture Puyang City in the end, we can weaken the other party's foundation to the greatest extent."

For Qiao Mao's urging, Yang Rui had already had a response to it, and this remark was very appealing to Qiao Mao's appetite, so Qiao Mao quickly agreed.

After the two talked for a while, Qiao Mao left and went to prepare according to Yang Rui's words. (To be continued......)
