Chapter 45: Persuasion

Jin Chong was really desperate, he never expected that after a few months of hard work, he tried everything he could, tried every possible way, was on guard, and was so careful that he actually opened the city gate with his own hands and let Li Gong's army in.

How did Li Gong's army know about tonight's events? What exactly happened to the omission?

Does it still matter? It doesn't matter, the important thing is that you lose!

Four words appeared in his mind - martyrdom to die! He looked at the soldiers who were lying in large numbers, drew his sword at his waist, and prepared to kill himself.

At this moment, a cold arrow flew in, impartial, and shot right on Jin Chong's arm holding the sword. The Qingyu sword "clanged" and fell to the ground. Jin Chong was also captured alive because of an arm injury.

Not far away, Li Xuanzheng patted the shoulder of a young general next to him with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Iron pillar, good archery!" ”

This young general showed a shy smile on his face and said, "My Aunt Hei - no, Yao Lichang said, I want to catch her alive!" ”

The sky broke down, and the deafening shouts of killing gradually stopped.

Some soldiers have begun to put up notices in the city to reassure the people, telling them not to panic, how to live, how to live, and General Lee's army will never plunder the people. If the people are willing to help the army clean up the battlefield in the city, General Li will be paid on a daily basis, so that everyone will not work in vain.

Although the notices were plastered all over the streets and alleys of Yuanying City, most of the people still hid at home and did not dare to go out, and a few of them were bold enough to really help the soldiers clean up the battlefield. At dusk, the city was clean as if nothing had happened. Gradually, the people of the city dared to come out and walk around.

In the palace, Li Gong sat in the hall, and in front of him, kneeling and trembling Taishou Chuxiang, standing with five flowers tied up, and Jin Chong, who was cold-eyed at the horizontal door. He refused Li Xuan's soldiers to help him treat his wound, and the arrow was still pierced in his arm, and the blood that flowed down the wound dripped on the battle robe, and had solidified into brown.

What to do with these two people? Li Gong had already made up his mind in his heart.

When Yuan Yingcheng couldn't be captured for a long time, Tang Ji told Li Gongdao: "This Jin Chong, although he is a little disrespectful to the general, is really a good general who defends the city, if we can take him under his command, the general can fight further, and the rear can rest assured." With our Jiyan City as a lonely city, if we want to fight against the entire Xu Kingdom, we will fight all the way in front, and the defense in the back is not good, which is also a waste of effort. In addition, there are only dozens of our generals, large and small, once the battle line is opened in the future, it will definitely not be enough, not only this Jin Chong must be subdued, but if he fights further, there are suitable generals, and he must also be subdued. First, it is beneficial to war, and secondly, it can also let the officials of those cities that have not been breached also see that General Li's benevolence is completely different from that of the dumb and cruel king. ”

Seeing that Li Gong had an approving look on his face, Tang Ji said again: "From the point of view of humble duties, this Jin Chong's ability to defend the city is even better than General Kou. It is better to let him guard Jiyan City in the future, prevent Hu Guo from attacking, and transfer Kou Yue to the general's side, which is the most powerful and trustworthy helper. ”

Li Gong nodded repeatedly.

How can a person who wants to achieve great things hold a grudge because others have scolded you a few times? What's more, this person is still a rare talent.

Thinking of this, Li Quan stood up with a smile on his face, walked around the table, stepped forward, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Commander Jin, you have been wronged." These people are not sensible, how can they treat Commander Jin like this? As he spoke, he wanted to untie Jin Chong's rope.

Jin Chong didn't appreciate it, he twisted his neck, twisted his body, dodged Li Gong's hand, and said loudly: "Ben Jiang was careless for a while, and fell in your way." Now that you have become your prisoner, if you want to kill or chop, listen to your respect! You don't have to make such a pretense! ”

Li Gong retracted his hand, straightened his face, and said calmly: "Commander Jin thinks I'm fake?" So what about not pretending? Like a faint king, he kills the loyal and good in vain, favors the traitors, poisons the people, and makes the people miserable? ”

"This ......" Jin Chong was speechless for a while, but he still raised his head high, his eyes staring at the ceiling, and snorted contemptuously from his nose.

Li Gong said unhurriedly: "Although Commander Jin is in a high position, he should also see what kind of life the people of Xu State are living now. Xia Wei was brutal, and Shang Tang raised troops; Yin Xuan has no way, and the king of martial arts is defeated. Are they all rebels and thieves? Why do history books praise them? Also called them the Holy Kings? ”

Jin Chong's head was still held high, but his face seemed to have softened a little, but he still didn't say a word.

Li Gong was about to continue the persuasion, but Chu Xiang, who was kneeling next to him, hurriedly climbed a few steps, leaned over and said: "What General Li said is extremely true, the humble position has long been dissatisfied with the Holy Lord-no, the faint monarch, and is willing to submit to the general!" From now on, let the general send you! ”

Jin Chong's face, which had just softened a little, changed color again, he lowered his head, fire appeared in his eyes, stared at Chu Xiang deadly, and scolded: "Phew! A spineless seed! A manly man, with a big scar on his head, what's there to be afraid of? It's disgusting that you have groveled so much for your life! ”

Li Xuan shook his head helplessly, and instructed the soldiers around him: "Someone! Take Lord Chu out, arrange for a good life, and don't wronged him! ”

Chu Xiang stood up with a sneer, nodded and followed the soldier.

Li Xuanfang said to Jin Chong again: "If Commander Jin is unwilling to surrender to me, it's nothing. I'll be able to release Commander Kim right awayβ€”and your family. It's just that Jin Commander went out of the city, where are he going? So many heroes of Xu Guo who have made outstanding achievements in war have been killed by the faint king, and the golden commander has lost the city, I wonder what the faint monarch will do with you? ”

Jin Chong sneered and said, "Even if the Holy Lord beheads me immediately, I have no complaints!" ”

Li Gong arched his hand and said softly: "Commander Jin is a heroic, I admire it!" It's just that I don't know if Commander Jin has thought about his mother and children at home? What will the faint king do with them? ”

The muscles on Jin Chong's face twitched a few times rapidly, and his face tensed and he didn't speak.

Li Gong turned his head to signal, and immediately two soldiers walked up, bowed and saluted, "What does the general command?" ”

Li Gong said: "Loosen the tie of Commander Jin and send the carriage and horses to send them to their homes." No one is allowed to watch, and Commander Jin will follow him wherever he wants. Even if you go out of the city, you are not allowed to stop him. Quickly send someone to go and speak to the soldiers who defend the city. As he spoke, he didn't look at Jin Chong, turned around and left.

He didn't need to surrender, but he surrendered quite quickly; The one who was bent on watching him surrender was just a strong neck.

Li Gong sighed silently in his heart, and he didn't know if this trick would work.

And this Chu Xiang, I thought that he could stay in the city for three months, and he must be a usable talent, but I didn't expect it to be so groveling, it is useless! This Yuan Yingcheng can last for three months, and the credit is all due to Jin Chong alone. This person has to be subdued!
