Chapter 157: Surrender

If you want to talk about this Xu Sheng, naturally you can't compare with Lu Meng who Yuan Yao caught before.

However, this person is not low in history. In Sun Wu's camp, he can be regarded as a famous general.

In the early years of history, Xu Sheng fought against Huang Zu and was promoted to Zhonglang General because of his merits. Bloody battle in the wet beard. When Liu Bei invaded Wudi, Xu Sheng followed Lu Xun to capture many cantonments of the Shu army; When Cao Xiu attacked Wu, Xu Sheng successfully defended with less resistance and more under the unfavorable situation.

Because of his military exploits, Xu Sheng was successively promoted to General Jianwu, General Anton, and served as the Taishou of Lujiang. Later, Cao Pi attacked Wu on a large scale, and Wu Guo built a wall on the periphery of Jianye according to Xu Sheng's suggestion, and Cao Pizhong suspected the city's plan and retreated.

With these contributions, he was praised by Chen Shou as "the tiger minister of Jiangbiao".

Based on this alone, Xu Sheng's status in Yuan Yao's mind is not low.

At least in Yuan Yao's opinion, a talent like Xu Sheng is equivalent to a leader among second-rate generals.

If it can be dug up from Sun Ce's command, it will be a great help.

At least it's much better than these third-rate generals under Yuan Yao's dead ghost father Yuan Shu.

"Xu Sheng, I see that you are young, and you have the ability to be a county lieutenant in this small Dantu County, which is really condescending."

"Would you like to vote for me?"

Yuan Yao had the mentality of giving it a try, and said a word to Xu Sheng.

This sentence made Xu Sheng stunned.

Unexpectedly, he was captured, but instead of being directly killed by the other party, the other party's coach also intended to recruit him.

But Xu Sheng quickly frowned, he was also a general under Sun Ce, if he surrendered as soon as he was defeated, wouldn't he be a faceless person.

When the time comes, if Sun Ce comes back and rescues him, wouldn't he have no face to see Sun Ce.

So after a little hesitation, Xu Sheng still opened his mouth and rejected Yuan Yao.

"How can the eldest husband go to Sun Ce, since I have already taken refuge in Sun Ce, then I think Sun Ce is the main thing, how can I change my course and switch to you again."

"In that case, what is the difference between me and the three surnamed family slaves Lu Bu?"

Xu Sheng was righteous and awe-inspiring, and said it to Yuan Yao, which surprised Yuan Yao.

It's not that he was surprised that he was rejected by Xu Sheng, but Xu Sheng, a kid, actually knows the name of Lu Bu, a slave with the third surname.

Speaking of which, he had some friendship with Lu Bu, and this kid scolded Lu Bu in front of him, but Yuan Yao was quite surprised.

It's not good, he scolded Lu Bu, not himself, Yuan Yao still won't take it to heart.

"That's not what you say, good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose their masters."

"A talent like General Xu Sheng, you should lead thousands of troops and horses, charge into battle, follow the example of the champion Hou, be famous through the ages, and make immortal achievements."

"How can you nest in this small Dantu County and be a county lieutenant."

"Being a county lieutenant is really too condescending."

Yuan Yao drew a big cake and threw it directly to Xu Sheng, not to mention Xu Sheng, that is, Liu Bi and Gong Du on the side, all of whom were depicted by Yuan Yao's future, and their eyes lit up.

Xu Sheng's face naturally changed, feeling humiliated by what happened to him, and at the same time he was attracted by Yuan Yao's depiction.

He Xu Sheng has been taking refuge in Sun Ce for two years, and in the past two years, he has helped govern Dantu County, which can be regarded as a good governance, not only did Dantu County not have any big trouble, but also became an important economic source under Sun Ce.

But in this way, Xu Sheng worked in the position of Dantu County Lieutenant for two years, and he did not get any promotion.

To say, a talent like Xu Sheng really shouldn't be a county lieutenant here, but Sun Ce has no choice, there are too many capable people under him.

is just one Xu Sheng, and he is not his descendant, where can Sun Ce take care of him.

Sun Ce not only has the local Haoqiang clan in Wu County to appease, but also his father's group of old brothers to settle down, all kinds of capable people, all kinds of powerful people, all kinds of powerful people, all of which he can't give up.

For example, his uncle Wu Jing and cousin Sun Ben, these people must hold high positions, otherwise why would they follow your Sun Ce.

So just one Xu Sheng, he really can't get into Sun Ce's eyes.

Being able to give Xu Sheng an official position as a county lieutenant is already Sun Ce's greatest ability.

Sun Ce is not Yuan Shu, Sun Ce himself is just a Huiji Taishou, and when he crusaded against Yuan Shu before, he asked for an official position as a cavalry lieutenant from the hands of Emperor Han.

With this ability, naturally there is no way to canonize the talents under him, and he can only ask the emperor for official positions on his behalf.

But the emperor is in Cao Cao's hands, where will he promise Sun Ce.

Therefore, Sun Ce's people can only canonize some magistrates in counties.

Yuan Yao looked at Xu Sheng's eyes and jumped, and knew that Xu Sheng, this guy, seemed to take this matter more seriously.

Immediately, he continued to say to Xu Sheng.

"If so, General Xu Sheng can take refuge in me, I can assure you that you will be named the general of Zhichong Zhonglang and lead 3,000 elite soldiers! Charge into battle and make a contribution! ”

"What do you think?"

Yuan Yao threw his olive branch to Xu Sheng.

As long as Xu Sheng is interested in high-ranking officials Houlu, he should accept his invitation.

Of course, this kind of person is a minority after all, and Yuan Yao didn't expect that his words would really be able to bring Xu Sheng down.

But after Xu Sheng lowered his head and pondered for a while, he really agreed.

"Okay, since Gongzi really values me, if Xu Sheng keeps refusing, he will inevitably be a little ignorant of promotion, and Xu Sheng is willing to surrender to Gongzi."

Yuan Yao originally saw Xu Sheng bowing his head and was silent, thinking that the other party would not surrender.

Unexpectedly, Xu Sheng actually agreed in one bite.

This time, on the contrary, Yuan Yao was a little stunned.

This is a bit confusing, whether this Xu Sheng really surrendered or fake.

If this was someone else, he would naturally be very happy.

But this Jiangdong rat likes to engage in such small tricks as deception, and Yuan Yao is also a little worried that he has become the Cao Mengde in history.

However, now is not the era when Lile is completely destroyed, and in the face of such a surrender, Yuan Yao still has a way to handle it.

So after being slightly stunned, he quickly showed his acting skills, showed surprise on his face, and stepped forward to support Xu Sheng.

"Quick, immediately untie General Xu Sheng!"

As soon as Yuan Yao said a word, the soldiers on both sides immediately stepped forward and came to Xu Sheng's side, and quickly loosened the rope that tied Xu Sheng's hands.

Liu Pi, who was standing on the side, was also happy.

It is a good thing to capture an enemy soldier by himself and surrender so quickly.

"The last general, Xu Sheng, is willing to be a son and go to the soup and fire."

Although Xu Sheng surrendered, this was also out of consideration for his own life, and he did not call Yuan Yao the lord, which was still under consideration.
