In the end, Zhuge Ming said concludingly: "Therefore, our Red Star Army Lord, Liu Handong, is the one who belongs to the destiny of heaven!" In this regard, our army has absolutely no suspicion. What is commendable is that the lord is also a person who serves the people wholeheartedly, so he is deeply loved by the people. It is precisely because of this that when our army fights, it can get the full support of the broad masses of the people. ”

"Because we firmly believe that the way of heaven is on our side, when faced with war, everyone in our army fights with the confidence of victory. Of course, saying that the way of heaven is on our side still seems a bit illusory, so let's talk about something practical. Since ancient times, the Ming monarch who created a prosperous era is a great man who is wholeheartedly supported by the people, and the so-called one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, and the lord is such a person who wins the hearts of the people. It is precisely because the people's hearts are on our side that you will lose this war so badly. ”

"Today, the Lord and our Red Star Army are committed to creating a peaceful and prosperous world of fairness and rule of law for the people of the world. Just like today's Confucian City, the policy in the jurisdiction is to divide the land evenly among households according to the population of each household, and collect low ground rent; Merchants shall pay taxes in accordance with the appropriate proportion of business income. These good policies for the benefit of the country and the people have fully avoided the exploitation of the landlords and bureaucrats at all levels, and enabled the common people to truly enjoy the benefits of the policies formulated by the Red Star Army. Therefore, the common people naturally wholeheartedly support our Red Star Army and our lord - Liu Handong! ”

Therefore, we are the ones who truly win the hearts and minds of the people, and this is the true destiny of heaven. You may as well ask the soldiers behind me if they are willing to sacrifice their lives at any time to preserve the gains of the current uprising? Soldiers, would you like it? ”

"Yes! Willing! Willing! A tsunami-like "willing" sound immediately sounded in the valley, and under the effect of the echo, it lasted for a long time.

After the valley was quiet again, Zhuge Ming continued to speak: "Therefore, the two generals are really going against the sky when they come here, so your defeat is already doomed. Two generals, now that our uprising is in its infancy, we urgently need all kinds of people of insight to join in the great cause, and finally create a peaceful and prosperous era. ”

"Our Red Star Army is an open and inclusive team, and we will unite all the forces that can be united to work together to seek happiness for the people of the world. Even if you can't understand the concept of our Red Star Army for the time being, and don't recognize it for the time being, as long as you are willing to seek happiness for the people of the world, you can join our uprising. ”

"After all, different people have different ideas. Therefore, it is only natural that there is some controversy about the concept for the time being. However, as long as we are all for the sake of the common people to live a better life, then we will put aside the ideological controversy for the time being, which is the so-called seeking common ground while reserving differences. Moreover, the sage also said, 'Gentlemen are harmonious but different'. ”

"In addition, everyone who joins our uprising will be able to enjoy the preferential policies of our Red Star Army in the future, and the land will be fairly distributed to households, and only 20% of the harvest will be paid as agricultural taxes. In a year of famine, not only do they not have to pay agricultural taxes, but the government will also provide food for disaster relief.

"If you are in business, you only need to pay 20% and a half of your income as commercial tax, and there is no other suffering from labor and excesses and miscellaneous taxes. Even if the government needs manpower to do the work, we will pay the corresponding remuneration, instead of forced labor (in ancient times, the government did not pay for labor service). ”

Speaking of this, Zhuge Ming suddenly shouted loudly to the opposite side: "Officers and soldiers of the Jin and Wu armies on the other side, a great new era is in front of us, and you can all become a member of this new era and enjoy the good policies of our Red Star Army." And the situation you are in now is a desperate place with rolling stones, earthquakes below, fire oil cans in the air, and Zhuge crossbows on the periphery. If you resist stubbornly, it can be said that you will be dead and lifeless! ”

"If you go against the sky, you will sacrifice your lives in vain. Therefore, the soldiers on the other side, why don't you leave a useful body and join our Red Star Army to create a great and beautiful new era. At that time, everyone will have food to eat, everyone will have clothes to wear, each will perform his duties, and he will be distributed according to his work, and he will not be happy! General Sima, General Deng, and all the soldiers on the other side, do you think so? Zhuge Ming finally said.

After Zhuge Ming finished speaking, Sima Yan and Deng Ai suddenly felt a burst of relief in their hearts. For the defeat of this operation, they were also able to accept it relatively calmly. Because they thought: Yes, the failure of this battle is not because of our own military command ability, but because we are going against the sky. We just lost to the Heavenly Dao, how can mortals fight to cross the Heavenly Dao?

The two of them looked at the eyes of the soldiers around them, and they found that they were full of desire for life and yearning for the beautiful new era depicted by Zhuge Ming.

Yes, think about these soldiers who joined the army, they could sacrifice their lives at any time. However, their families are still unable to fill their stomachs. And the preferential policies provided by the other party are simply fatal to them.

If the two of them still called their soldiers to attack at this time, a mutiny might occur immediately, and there was a great possibility that ordinary soldiers would immediately defect. Thinking of this, the two commanders have already understood that the military spirit has been lost, the general trend has gone, and there is no way to return to the sky.

The two couldn't help but think with great admiration: Zhuge Ming is really well versed in the art of war of "going to the army to fight and strategize, attacking the heart first, and surrendering the army without a fight"!

"Alas! No one can fight with the heavens! At the same time, for the sake of the lives of his subordinates, Deng was willing to surrender! Saying that, Deng Ai turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee towards Zhuge Ming, and bowed his head with his fists clenched to show his submission.

Zhuge Ming hurriedly saluted Corporal Xian and said, "General Deng Ai, please hurry up!" Haha, with General Deng Ai joining our rebel army, why worry about the failure of the uprising? ”

Hearing Zhuge Ming's words, Deng Ai immediately stood up, looked at the Jin army soldiers on the other side, and immediately ordered his team: "The whole army listens to the order, keeps the battle alert, and the goal is the Jin army!" ”

Under Deng Ai's order, all the soldiers of the Wu army immediately clenched the weapons in their hands, and adjusted their posture so that the weapons in their hands were aimed at the Jin army on the opposite side of the valley pass.

Seeing this, the ordinary soldiers of the Jin army felt even more desperate in their hearts, and their expressions were even more frightened. They were already in a desperate situation, and now due to the surrender of the Wu army, the other party has a numerical advantage. Under such a field now, if you continue to fight, you really have no way to survive at all.

At this moment, Sima Yan struggled very much in his heart, after all, he was the number two person in the Sima family. During the Three Kingdoms period before the unification of the world by Shu Han, his ancestor Sima Yi was defeated by Zhuge Liang, the ancestor of the Zhuge family. I thought that now the Sima family could be ashamed of the ancestors, but he was defeated in the hands of the descendants of the Zhuge family, and now he has to surrender to the other party, which is really unspeakable.

In Panlong Valley, the atmosphere on the battlefield fell into the most tense moment of saber rattling for a while. The soldiers of the Wu army who had surrendered were watching the soldiers of the Jin army with fierce eyes, ready to strike a thunderous blow at them at any time.

Zhuge Ming waved the ice crystal feather fan in his hand, and the true qi and the battle qi group immediately merged into one, making a state that could release the battle qi technique on the Jin army at any time, and psychologically exerted further pressure on the Jin soldiers.

When the ordinary soldiers of the Jin Army saw Zhuge Ming's actions, perhaps for the sake of their own lives, or perhaps because they were attracted by the preferential policies of the Red Star Army, new changes finally appeared on the battlefield.

With a "bang", I saw that among the former army of the Jin army, a soldier threw the Pu knife in his hand to the ground, and then said: "I, Cao Daniu, am willing to surrender and join the Red Star Army to fight the world for our people!" This dog's Jin army, Lao Tzu fought hard for your Sima family, but his son at home was eaten by hungry villagers in the famine last winter. ”

"But the landlords and officials are big fish and meat all day long, even if they stink the wine and meat at home, and feed the grain at home to the mice, they are reluctant to take out a little bit of food to relieve us poor people. Lao Tzu will no longer work for such unkind and unrighteous officials, from now on, I Cao Da Niu will only fight the world for our people. ”

After speaking, Cao Daniu walked towards the camp of the Red Star Army empty-handed without hesitation. The surrounding Jin soldiers just looked at him in a daze, and no one made a move to stop him. With Cao Daniu taking the lead, in an instant, many soldiers in the front army of the Jin army threw their weapons away, and then walked towards the team of the Red Star Army.

Seeing this, the rest of the Jin army began a chain collapse effect like dominoes, and they threw away their weapons one after another to express their willingness to surrender. Soon, in the camp of the Jin army, only Sima Yan was left sitting on the war horse.

Sima Yan looked around helplessly, and then said desolately: "Go to the army to attack and plan, then to attack the enemy, then to attack the army, and then attack the city!" A soldier who surrenders without a fight, Lord Zhuge really has the essence of the art of war! ”

"What makes Sima Yan even more admired is that back then, Prime Minister Zhuge fought the Confucianism with a three-inch incorruptible tongue, and now Lord Zhuge has subdued tens of thousands of troops with a three-inch incorruptible tongue, and Lord Zhuge is really not under your ancestor Prime Minister Zhuge in the past! Sima Yan really admires and admires this! ”

"That's it, destiny cannot be violated! Sima Yan is willing to follow the way of heaven to join the Red Star Army and do his part for the happiness of the people in the world. ”

Zhuge Ming immediately said very generously: "Haha, General Sima praised it falsely, I am not as good as the ancestors." On behalf of the Red Star Army, I very much welcome General Sima to join our team, and we have been our closest comrades-in-arms in the uprising ever since. General Sima and General Deng Ai, let us join hands to join hands in the great cause of the uprising and open peace for all the people! ”

At this point, the defense of Kongcheng finally ended with the complete victory of Kongcheng. The Red Star Army then incorporated the troops, let the militia regiment on the hillside withdraw to the village outside, and let Liu Handong lead the cavalry team to join the large army, etc., so as not to elaborate on it.
