On Zheng Anping's right-hand side, there were sparsely planted in a row, with three or five people in a column, more than ten people, twenty or thirty people in a column, and more than thirty columns. Zheng Anping then ordered those doctors: "You and others will lead their own pawns!" ”

Except for the doctors, neither the official doctors nor the public doctors recognized their troops.

Zheng Anping let the officers disperse and stand away, and then said: "All the soldiers belong to their generals!" ”

Some of the soldiers who were lined up voluntarily lined up behind the doctors, but most of the soldiers were not present with their own doctors, and they still stood still.

Zheng Anping asked those lonely soldiers to find people they knew on their own and join them; Let the smaller queues also go to find people they know and join them. Soon, the cohorts began to merge and gather into a large collective. But there are still one or two hundred people who have not found their home, and they do not seem to know all the people here. Zheng Anping asked Doctor Gong to disperse them into three outposts.

By the time they returned to the barracks, it was already completely dark.

After returning to the barracks, Zheng Anping asked the five doctors and the public attendant to be responsible for arranging for people to register the hometowns of the released soldiers and the types of troops they were engaged in, and to issue temporary waist badges and weapons according to their origins, so that they could be incorporated into the troops that had been reduced due to the battle. The five doctors quietly asked, "Don't you worry about it?" ”

Zheng Anping said: "Anyone who has an acquaintance is undoubtedly a Qin person. and no one shall know them, or they may have spies, so they shall be scattered in the ranks, and shall not be harmed. ”

The five doctors said: "The general is thoughtful and very human. ”

When everything was settled, Zheng Anping summoned the five doctors and the public passengers to his big tent, and asked very seriously: "Xinling Jun or Shiwu army surrounds, but the generals may be inevitable!" I don't dare to be self-dictatorated, dare to discuss it with the truth, don't hide anything! ”

When they heard this, their hearts were stunned. After a long time, a five-year doctor asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Zheng Anping recounted his conversation with Mr. Zhong Yue. The conversation between the two was undisguised, and the meaning was clear and clear: the Qin army gave up resistance and handed over the commander, and the Wei army could let the Qin soldiers leave, most likely by letting them go back to Shangdang. Of course, there are still many details that need to be clarified, such as whether Mr. Zhongyue's opinion represents Xinlingjun, which level of commander stays, whether weapons can be retained, and so on. But this is not the most important thing, what matters is whether or not to accept Mr. Zhongyue's proposal. - Although the tone is gentle and respectful, it is a clear persuasion!

Everyone remained silent for a long time, not saying a word. Zheng Anping urged again and again, and finally one of the five doctors said: "I would like to hear the general's opinion!" ”

Zheng Anping said: "What I can't decide, what does it say is Wu Anhu?" ”

A five-year-old doctor said: "Wu'an Jin army is 200,000, and our army is only 20,000, and there is only death." Not enough to get out is also ,...... Nor is it enough. The other five also nodded in agreement.

Zheng Anping said: "Wang Qi has the way to help us? ”

Everyone thought about it, and a public attendant said: "If the king has help, he will not let Zuo Shu go east; Zuo Shu Chang is also out, and there will be no help! ”

Zheng Anping said: "We were ordered to go out of Handan with Zuo Shu, and now we are also trapped in Wu'an. ”

Everyone unanimously said: "It will be the north, and it will not only be lost!" ”

Zheng Anping said: "Since the north, there is no way back, I can do it with one body, what can I do?" ”

The crowd fell silent. According to Qin's law, if a general loses a battle, the punishment can be light or severe according to the situation, but this is on the premise that he can kill and return to China. If the whole army is destroyed, then the general must die on the battlefield, and it is impossible to live alone! And in the current situation...... If Zheng Anping surrenders, the lives of the whole army will be saved, but Zheng Anping will be wiped out because of the surrender!

Zheng Anping said: "Anping is incompetent, affecting the three armies. Those who wish to stay, I will stay with you; I will die with those who wish to fight. First, it is intended by the will of the kings. ”

The crowd said: "We are under the orders of the general! ”

Zheng Anping said: "Twenty thousand soldiers, it is useless to die, it is better to live for the after-effects." Although the princes stay in Zhao, whether they are poor or bitter, they must also keep useful bodies for those who come! ”

A public attendant said: "Changping's 400,000 Zhao soldiers surrendered to Qin, and they were all killed by the Qin people." Knowing the heart of Zhao people, is it no longer because of this? ”

Another public passenger said: "The words of the public passenger are yes. The soldiers are stubborn, and everyone is afraid of them; Release, everyone is humiliated. If you don't win their hearts, you might as well fight. Even if you die, it is better than its humiliation, and there are no regrets! ”

Zheng Anping said: "Erqing's words are very true. If I can't die, I and everyone will die in Wu'an, and I don't dare to follow. The matter is undecided, you should be careful not to leak it! ”

The six of them arched their hands and said: "I am respectful, I dare not leak it!" ”

After everyone left, Zheng Anping fell into deep thought. Although he had made up his mind in his heart, he was still nervous: could this be another conspiracy? Or, as the public attendant said, once the Qin army lays down its arms, it will be reduced to the fish and meat of the Zhao people? The Qin people killed 400,000 Zhao people, and used very disgraceful means, will the Zhao people use their own way to govern their bodies? Even if Xinlingjun agreed, what if he couldn't control the Zhao people? Is it safer to die on the battlefield? If he surrenders, he will be exterminated, and he will only have his wife and a son in his family, and he can only kill these two people if he wants to destroy the clan. …… But what about Zhang Lu!

Thinking of Zhang Lu, Zheng Anping's mood became a little complicated, this is thinking of something that has never happened to the mother and son of the little slave. Zhang Lu will definitely be implicated in this matter, but how much is involved; Sponsored by his own Zhang Lu, even if he is incompetent, Zhang Lu will follow him, not to mention such a big crime as surrender! Will Zhang Lu be dismissed, dismissed, or beheaded? If Zhang Lu is involved, can he still do this?

If Mr. is at this time, how will he choose? Zheng Anping involuntarily substituted himself for Zhang Lu again. If you fight to the death, there is only one who dies; If it falls, although it may be difficult to escape death, it is also possible to live to death! If the gentleman had been there, he would have chosen to surrender rather than watch the destruction of his life!

The conditions must be negotiated, and Xinlingjun will not deceive himself! He is also full of trust in Shinling-kun. If Xinlingjun is allowed to mediate, Zhao Ren ......

In the midst of his thoughts, Zheng Anping fell asleep.

The next day, it was another tedious offensive and defensive battle. Although the coalition forces did not show their true colors to attack, the Qin army must also make defensive moves in place. At the end of the day, I was tired again.

After collecting the troops, the public passenger who defended the river valley quietly came to see Zheng Anping and said, "The old friend has returned!" ”

Zheng Anping was startled, knowing that it was Mr. Zhongyue who came again, and he didn't call the five doctors, so he followed the public to the estuary camp.

There was no moonlight in the day and night, only a starry sky. The bus took Zheng Anping to a mansion, where the big tent of the bus was located. Unlike when he first met Mr. Zhong Yue, out of prudence, Mr. Zhong Yue was arranged in the nearest camp, after meeting with Zheng Anping last night, the public attendant knew that this person was the envoy sent by Xinling Jun to recruit him. In the current desperate situation, the public passenger also feels that if he can make peace, it will naturally be no better. But this matter can only be taken by Zheng Anping, and he can only follow to ensure that everything is fine, otherwise he is afraid that his own family will be exterminated. When Mr. Zhongyue came to see him again, the public passenger arranged for him to enter his big tent.

The subtext of this arrangement, Zheng Anping naturally understood: I support your peace talks, and you don't have any worries here!

When Zheng Anping entered the house, he saw Mr. Zhongyue and Brother Su waiting in the courtyard. Zheng Anping greeted everyone, and the public passenger let everyone into the lobby, and Mr. Zhong Yue said: "The stars are shining tonight, sit in the court, and enjoy the sky!" ”

The attendant immediately went to the hall, took a few mats, spread them in the court, and was about to leave. Zheng Anping stopped and said: "I talk to my old friend, don't avoid the public ride!" The two mats were set up side by side, and the six of them sat down on either side, almost talking on their knees.

Zheng Anping said: "Mr. is highly talented, and he must be able to pass through the stars!" ”

Mr. Zhong Yue said: "The stars are the ears of people, but when you look at people, the stars are self-evident!" ”

Zheng Anping said: "Wu'an is full of corpses, and the blood is flowing like a river, and I don't want to." What will the gentleman do to solve it? ”

Mr. Zhongyue said: "Today, I am giving advice to the general!" ”

Zheng Anping said: "Will the plan be released? ”

Mr. Zhong Yue said: "The elders and above will stay in Wu'an, and the rest can be returned to the party." What is it? ”

Zheng Anping said: "If you are long, you are afraid that you will not stand up, and it will only increase the confusion." ”

Mr. Zhong Yue said: "What does the general mean? ”

Zheng Anping said: "The doctor and the following are all returned, and the only minister stays, but what?" ”

Mr. Zhongyue said: "No! The doctors are all left, so that the hearts of the princes are at peace. ”

Zheng Anping said: "How can a beast that has been trapped for a long time be uneasy! ”

Mr. Zhongyue said: "Definitely. The tiger will devour people and cut off its minions! ”

Zheng Anping said: "The tiger lost its claws, although the eagle and the dog are still playing, how can they live?" Throw yourself into its bow and spear! ”

Mr. Zhong Yue said: "Not only bows and spears, but also not an inch of gold!" ”

Zheng Anping said: "Isn't this a matter of putting me on the table? How can I protect myself? Non-alliance righteousness also. ”

Mr. Zhong Yue said: "General Jun is heavy, and he can't be at ease. I'm afraid it's going to be devoured! ”

Zheng Anping said: "Anping does not cultivate virtue, fails to win the trust of the king, and regrets it deeply!" ”

Mr. Zhong Yue said: "Not only this, but also the Eight Treasures. But you can hold a stick, and its length is not as long as the top! ”

Zheng Anping said: "If it is, but there are one or two small harms, and Anping will die without a place!" I didn't dare to hear it! An Ping is willing to marry the king, and he insists on the benevolence and righteousness of the king, and does not bear to kill each other! The king will want to put Anping to death, please behead Anping, don't dare to resign! ”

Seeing that Zheng Anping resolutely disagreed, Mr. Zhong Yue stopped and became silent. Zheng Anping also stopped talking, put his hands on his knees, and lowered his head to watch his heart. For a long time, the bus passenger here, Brother Su over there and the other three gradually became uneasy, looked at Mr. Zhongyue, and then at Zheng Anping, a little overwhelmed!
