Chapter 637: Cao Ren's Surrender Succeeds
Cao Ren looked up at the city tower and said loudly, "Where is the county order?"
"This county is here!"
Dewey stood up directly, his eyes calm. For more up-to-date chapters, visit: ะจะฉะฉ.(7)(9)XS.ัะะ.
He had already received the news and knew what to do next, so he was not in a hurry at all, but was very much looking forward to the next development. Both the left and right were going to surrender, and Cao Ren took the initiative to surrender, which was the best result.
Cao Ren said loudly: "Ben will attack the city today, you already know the situation this time." If you still stubbornly resist, then Ben will have to launch another onslaught. โ
"Once the city is broken, there will be no grass left. โ
"However, as long as you surrendered, Ben could have promised not to kill you, leaving you alive. โ
"Not only that, but your official position, everything you have, will be preserved. โ
Cao Ren said with a sense of confusion in his words, "On the way to the future, I have already inquired about your situation. You are honest and honest, and you are an official who loves the people like a son. โ
"Do you want to ignore the life and death of the people for the sake of your personal integrity?"
"The people have entrusted their lives to you, is this how you treat them?"
Cao Ren said: "As long as you are obedient, Ben will not kill anyone, and Qiu will not commit any crimes, this is the guarantee that Ben will give you." How to decide, it is all in your thoughts. How do you decide whether to ignore the life and death of the people, or to take care of your own integrity?"
The expression on Dewey's face became serious.
It seems that he has been moved.
If he didn't get Liu Xiu's order, no matter how Cao Ren 'bewitched', he would have to resist to the death.
Now, it's simpler.
Dewey pretended to be heartbroken and said, "You really didn't commit any crimes?"
"Yes!"
Cao Ren said loudly: "Ben will guarantee with personality!"
"Ben will be in front of the countless soldiers under his command, and in front of the hundreds of people in the 'Yin' county, to ensure that Qiu will not commit any crimes. โ
"I think that's enough to show the sincerity of Ben. โ
Cao Ren said: "As long as you open the 'gate' of the city and surrender, you will not kill a single person, not grab a grain of grain, but just take over the 'Yin' county." So, you don't have to worry at all. โ
When Dewey heard this, he fell silent again.
Dewey, it seems, was hesitating.
Cao Ren saw it in his eyes, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he really had a chance.
As long as the other party hesitates, then there is a chance in this matter, and this time the other party can be persuaded to surrender. As long as the other party surrenders, he can take over the control of 'Yin' County, and then mobilize the army of 'Yin' County itself, integrate it into the army, and go to join Xiahoudun's army, preparing to cut off Liu Xiu's retreat.
"County Honor, come down. โ
Suddenly, a shout came from the castle tower.
The person who spoke was the county lieutenant.
As soon as he opened his mouth to persuade, in an instant, the rest of the soldiers joined in, all agreeing with the words of the county lieutenant.
The voices of persuasion came and went.
Cao Ren heard the news downstairs in Cheng, and his heart was even more overjoyed.
Such a result is undoubtedly the best.
It seems that the fight in the morning has dealt a heavy blow to the other party.
Dewey looked at Cao Ren under the city tower, took a breath, and said loudly: "General Cao, this official is willing to surrender." โ
As he spoke, Dewey turned around and went down the city tower, opened the city 'gate' with the county lieutenant, the county seat, the chief bookkeeper and others, came to the city 'gate', and knelt down directly. Dewey prostrated himself on the ground with his hands and said loudly: "General Cao, Dewey is willing to surrender!"
"Good! good!"
Cao Ren's eyes flashed with surprise.
Being able to recruit Dewey and take the 'Yin' County without a fight is the best result, which can greatly save his time.
Cao Ren stretched out his hands to hold up Dewey and said with a smile: "Dewey, the general has just said that if you don't kill anyone, your official position will not change." These words are not false. So, the 'Yin' county is still in charge of you. โ
"Thank you, General!"
Dewey's face was slightly stiff, and this expression fell in Cao Ren's eyes, and Cao Ren felt that Dewey was not used to it.
This is a normal reaction.
Dewey waved his hand and said, "General Cao, please!"
Cao Ren smiled and waved his hand.
In an instant, a group of soldiers entered the city first, and then quickly took over control of the tower. As long as the castle tower is still in Cao Ren's hands, Cao Ren can enter and exit freely, ensuring that he will not be ambushed.
After the soldiers took over the tower, Cao Ren followed into the city.
County office!
in the hall.
The host and guest are seated.
Dewey had a calm expression on his face and said, "General Cao, the lower officials don't have much property, so they can't set up a banquet for General Cao to pick up the wind and wash the dust." The only way to do this is to hand over the account books of the 'Yin' county, the city guards, the population, the taxes and other materials, and ask General Cao for your forgiveness. โ
Cao Ren smiled: "It's okay, I would have been a rough person, and I didn't pay attention to these." โ
After a pause, Cao Ren said: "This is the first time that this general has encountered the submission of account books, population, taxes and other materials. This thing is really a bit strange. At the same time, it is also proof of your integrity. โ
Now it is a world of great controversy, and the three families are competing for power.
Talent comes first.
Cao Ren saw that Dewey was a talent, and he also wanted to win it for Cao's ''.
Dewey immediately ordered, and in less than half an hour, all the information was placed in front of Cao Ren.
Dewey said: "General Cao, please read!"
Cao Ren flipped through it roughly, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.
More than two years ago, because Nanyang County has been in turmoil, the entire 'Yin' County is very 'chaotic'. But after Nanyang County was decided, everything stabilized, and Dewey was also a talent selected by Liu Xuan through the imperial examination and arranged to 'Yin' County.
During Dewey's years in power, the population of 'Yin' County continued to increase, and the tax revenue of 'Yin' County continued to increase.
Population!
Taxation!
These two items are the most direct and critical data.
"What a Dewey!"
Cao Ren praised in his heart, looked at Dewey, and said, "Du County Order, Ben will appreciate you very much." Your talent, not to mention the head of a county, even if you are a county guard, you are enough to do it. I will recommend it to King Wei, and you will definitely show your ambitions. โ
Dewey's face showed an "excited" look and said, "Thank you, General!"
Cao Ren's eyes flashed with a bright smile.
Cao Ren simply had lunch at the county office, and then went to the treasury to take inventory, and after staying in the city for half a day, Cao Ren left the city.
Next, Cao Ren collected the soldiers in the city in a very short period of time.
Through his own soldiers, he controls the cities of 'Yin' County.
Then, Cao Ren replenished food in the city.
After doing all this, Cao Ren was down-to-earth, and in fact, he didn't consume much time to complete these things, and in a very short period of time, he solved all the things, and then turned around and walked towards the only way to retreat from Chaoyang County to Deng County.
Cao Ren's departure relieved Dewey, who was in control of the 'Yin' county.
Dewey stood on the city tower, looking at the direction of Cao Ren's march that had long since disappeared from sight, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Although, the army left behind by Cao Ren controlled the 'Yin' county.
However, once Cao Ren was out of the pool, and he mobilized the forces in the city, it was enough to destroy Cao Ren's army left in 'Yin' County. After all, this army is rootless.
"Let's go, go back to the county office!"
With a smile on his face, Dewey took the county lieutenant and others to the county office.
What he had to do, he had done.
Next, there is Liu Xiu's matter, which has nothing to do with him.
