The surrender of Zhang Liao, Zhang Jaw, Jia Xu, Xun You, Yu Ban and others exacerbated the panic of Wei officials and caused people's hearts to fluctuate. The faces of these officials are full of fear, worried about the ruin of the country and the destruction of the family, and even more worried that there is no place to stand. In the face of Liu Xiu's strength, even Cao '' was frustrated and disheartened, let alone them.
Cao 'Cao' listened to the discussion of the officials in the court, but he didn't see anyone come out to speak, and he was even more irritable in his heart, and scolded: "Shut up!"
When the crowd heard this, they immediately fell silent.
A pair of eyes fell on Cao's ''.
Cao's '' gaze swept over everyone, and once again said: "Jizhou is in crisis, Wei is in danger, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty, the minister has a play!"
Suddenly, a loud voice rang out. It was no one else who spoke, but Yang Xiu, the chief bookkeeper under Cao Cao's command.
When everyone didn't speak, Yang Xiu stood up.
Yang Xiu respectfully bowed to Cao Cao', and said, "Your Majesty, in today's situation, Liu Xiu's general trend has been achieved, and it is difficult to resist. If he can resist the army of Chu, Weichen is willing to take the lead. However, in the first battle of Dongjun, even General Xu Chu was captured by Liu Xiu. In such a declining situation, how can we resist it? Your Majesty, Wechen suggested that Kaesong surrender. ”
Wow!!
As soon as these words came out, the court was in an uproar.
One by one, the officials began to talk again, and the hall was like a vegetable market. Everyone looked at Yang Xiu and felt that Yang Xiu was dead, and Yang Xiu dared to persuade Cao 'Cao' to surrender in front of Cao Cao's 'Cao', which was really bold.
"Someone's coming!"
Suddenly, another loud voice sounded. As soon as this voice came out, it suppressed the discussion of the officials in the court.
In an instant, a soldier walked in.
And it was none other than Cao Pi, the crown prince of Wei.
At this moment, Cao Pi was murderous in his eyes, staring at Yang Xiu with his eyes, and said angrily: "Yang Xiu, you are a corrupt Confucian, and you dare to 'confuse' the crowd, and you should be punished for your crimes." ”
After a pause, Cao Pi continued: "My father has taken you as grace as a mountain, and he is even more kind to you. In the face of Liu Xiu's attack, your knees turned out to be weak, and you want to surrender Liu Xiu. Okay, very good, this prince will send you on the road first, and after defeating Liu Xiu and killing Liu Xiu, let you reunite in the 'underworld'. ”
The officials looked at Yang Xiu again.
At this time, how will Yang Xiu deal with it?
The expression on Yang Xiu's face remained unchanged, and he said without hurry: "Prince, I have made it very clear just now. If Wei's troops can stop Liu Xiu, Weichen should be loyal to his duties and would be more willing to take the lead. ”
"The problem is, the state of Chu is aggressive, and the state of Wei is powerless to fight back, what can the prince resist?"
"Is it just a slogan?"
"Anyone can shout slogans, but in fact, there is no chance of winning at all. In the previous 'engagement' battles with Liu Xiu, Cao Ren died, Xiahou Yuan died, Xiahou Yuan died, Li Dian died, and there were countless casualties. ”
Now, Xu Chu has also been captured. ”
"The civil and military generals of the Wei State all died on the battlefield one by one, or surrendered to Liu Xiu and served Liu Xiu. In the current situation, who can be the general? Who can strategize and resist Liu Xiu's army. ”
Yang Xiu's eyes were scorching, his words were sharp, and he said: "In this battle, Liu Xiu mobilized the troops of Wen Ping, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren, Huang Zhong, and Lu Xun, and a total of five routes of army came to Yecheng to kill, facing such a strong attack. Can the prince resist it just by his mouth? The prince wants to kill Weichen, but the minister has nothing to say, nothing more than death. ”
Cao Pi was furious and ordered: "Quick, bring me down quickly, behead the public!
When the soldier stepped forward, he wanted to carry Yang Xiu out.
Yang Xiu glanced at Cao '', who didn't speak, sneered twice, flicked his sleeves, and said with his head held high: "You don't need to stand up, the official can go by himself." Without any hesitation, he turned around and walked out, and when the soldier saw this, he followed suit.
At this moment, the officials were silent.
Looking at Cao Pi one by one, there was a trace of jealousy and worry in their eyes.
Yang Xiu said that if he surrendered, he would be killed, and they didn't dare to speak again.
"Wait!"
At this moment, a hoarse voice sounded, and Cao's '', who had not spoken, spoke. Cao's eyes fell on the soldier and ordered, "You all stand down!"
"Whoa!"
The soldier bowed, then turned and retreated.
Yang Xiu turned around and bowed to Cao Cao, and said, "Your Majesty." ”
Cao's voice was hoarse, and he said slowly: "Yang Qing, do you really think that you can't stop the Chu State?"
Yang Xiu said solemnly: "Your Majesty knows the situation of the Wei State best. His Majesty also knows the strength of the Chu State. Today, Liu Xiu is a soldier who wins by surprise and is invincible. And Your Majesty is too, Your Majesty is also 'proficient' in the art of war and knows the situation. ”
"Your Majesty should know that the current Wei State can't stop Liu Xiu. ”
"In the past, His Majesty and Yuan Shao fought 'engagement' battles, although His Majesty was at a disadvantage, but His Majesty had a lot of talents, including Guo Jia, Xun You, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and other strategists 'fine' and sincere planning, and Xu Chu, Cao Ren, Xiahou Dan, Zhang Liao and other generals fought hard, and even more about Yu to help. ”
"These are the reasons for His Majesty's victory. ”
However, the most important reason is that Yuan Shao is stubborn and self-serving, wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, and is not a master. ”
Yang Xiu talked eloquently and said calmly: "Weichen is courageous, the reason why Your Majesty was able to defeat Yuan Shao, unify Hebei, and pacify the north is that forty percent of the reason is Your Majesty's wise decision, and sixty percent of the reason is Yuan Shao's self-mistake. ”
"If Yuan Shao is not a dumb lord and is not rigid and self-serving, His Majesty will not be able to have today. ”
"On the other hand, today, even though His Majesty is a wise lord, Liu Xiu is also cunning and murderous. In particular, Liu Xiu's military generals are like clouds, and his strategists are like rain, and his power far exceeds that of Yuan Shao. ”
"Under the circumstance that there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, Liu Xiu can rely on the general trend to steadily advance step by step and encroach on the Wei State. Liu Xiu is not Yuan Shao, and it is impossible to make Yuan Shao's mistakes. ”
"If Liu Xiu is a person like Yuan Shao, Your Majesty has the ability to turn the tide. But His Majesty and Liu Xiu are also friends and foes, and they know Liu Xiu's situation well, so they should know how powerful Liu Xiu is. ”
Yang Xiu bowed and said, "The Wei State, which is at a disadvantage, can't stop the soldiers of the Chu State. ”
A sentence poked at Cao's heart like a knife.
Cao's '''s face 'color' changed again and again.
Cao 'Cao' had to admit that Yang Xiu's analysis made sense.
In the past, the reason why Cao 'Cao' was able to defeat Yuan Shao was because of his own command, and there was also the original strategy of the strategists. But even though Cao '' all his might, he actually fell into a predicament in the end. If it weren't for Yuan Shao's self-error, which led to Xu You's betrayal, and Cao Cao's 'Cao' attacked Yuan Shao's granary, there would be no Cao Cao' today.
In the face of Liu Xiu, Cao 'Cao' was very weak.
Liu Xiu is constantly developing, his power is getting stronger and stronger, and he has even repeatedly shown miracles and received the help of the sky. The more Cao '', the more unwilling he felt. At the same time, he was more and more depressed.
"Whew, whew!"
Cao's '' breathing became rapid, and there was a touch of 'tide' red on his face. His throat was sweet, and he spurted out a mouthful of blood with a pop, and then the person sat down with a wilt, very weak.
Seeing this, Cao Pi rushed forward with an arrow step.
Cao Pi came to Cao 'Cao's face, supported Cao 'Cao', and said murderously: "Yang Xiu's fallacies 'confuse' the people, and they should be punished! This person was bought by Liu Xiu. ”
Yang Xiu looked disdainful and said: "I received the holy grace of His Majesty, was loyal to the Wei State, and was not bought by Liu Xiu. What I say below is just telling the truth. Loyalty is contrary to ear, and the prince can't listen to it. The prince wants to be killed, and Weichen has nothing to say. ”
"You ......"
Cao Pi was angry and angry.
He was about to speak again, but Cao '' and stretched out his hand to stop him. Cao 'Cao' wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, leaned against Cao Pi, and then forced his 'spirit' to look at Xun Yu, and said, "Gongda, what do you think?"
Xun Yu is a wise man who can judge the current situation. He did not persuade Yang Xiu to surrender, and said solemnly: "The minister is willing to follow Your Majesty, fight to the death, and fight to the last moment." ”
What is 'revealed' in the words is also not optimistic about the next battle.
Xun Yu also thought that he would be defeated.
Cao '' is so 'shrewd', as soon as Xun Yu said it, he understood Xun Yu's judgment. Cao 'Cao' sighed in his heart, turned his gaze, looked at Cheng Yu again, and said, "Zhong Degong, what do you think?"
Among the princes present, Cheng Yu has always dared to admonish, and he is even more loyal to Cao Cao. Cheng Yu was gray-haired, and said positively: "The old minister swears to follow His Majesty to the death." ”
In a word, it also reveals endless pessimism.
Cao 'Cao' turned his gaze again, looked at Chen Qun, and asked, "Chen Qing, what do you think?"
Chen Qun was silent for a while, and replied, "Your Majesty, the minister agrees with Lord Yang's words. The current situation is unstoppable. For the sake of His Majesty and the people of Wei, the minister agreed to surrender. ”
Chen Qun is from the Yingchuan Chen clan and is from a large family. Although Chen Qun was loyal to Cao's '', at this moment, the sun set in the Wei State and he could no longer hold on.
Therefore, Chen Qun has to think about the family.
When Cao Pi heard Chen Qun's words, he was also furious and kept Chen Qun in his heart.
