Chapter 490: Persuasion
Su Cheng brought hundreds of people to Yunshan Pass, prepared some wine and food, and wanted to get drunk and rest with Yao Pu, the guard of the pass, outside the city.
Yao Pu, who was in the gate, only felt a little strange.
Even if it's eating and drinking, why should it be outside the customs?
wanted to invite Su Cheng into the customs, but he was unmoved.
If this doesn't work out, you can still run outside the gate.
When I entered the pass, I was afraid that it would be called heaven and earth should not be called spiritual.
In desperation, Yao Pu left the city.
Before leaving the city, the adjutant general advised: "General, why don't you bring more soldiers and horses?
Yao Pu shook his head and said, "Su Chengnai is the eldest son of my teacher's knees, how could he do such an unkind and unrighteous thing?" ”
In this way, he only brought a few hundred people to Guanwai and got together with Su Cheng.
The two sat on the ground, and after three rounds of drinking, Yao Pu asked, "I heard that Hucheng County was besieged by the Wei army?"
Su Cheng nodded, "This is indeed the case." ”
Yao Pu said with concern: "Then Brother Su came this time to borrow troops? No, I heard from the scouts that the Wei army surrounded Hucheng County, how did Brother Su get out of the city?"
Su Cheng drank a glass of wine and said quite indifferently: "I surrendered to the Wei army." ”
"Surrender?"
Yao Pu was taken aback, and suddenly got up, and the soldiers behind the two of them also had a tense situation.
Su Cheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Yao is also a person who has seen a big scene, how can he be so surprised?"
Yao Pu also let the soldiers behind him calm down for a while, and then suppressed the surprise in his heart, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Su is not joking, is he?
He saw that Su Cheng's expression was quite serious, and he believed seven or eight points in his heart.
However, I still feel that this matter is a bit ridiculous.
Su Cheng said: "Brother Yao, in fact, this surrender to the Wei army is exactly what my father meant. ”
"What do you mean, Prime Minister?"
Yao Pu looked incredulous and said, "How is this possible? Back then, the prime minister taught students to serve the country loyally, how could it be possible for you to do such a thing?"
Su Cheng said very seriously: "Brother Yao doesn't know, before Wei Jun came to Hucheng County, my father wrote a letter to me, saying that as long as I can ensure my personal safety, I can do anything, and I don't have to worry about the situation on my father's side. Since my father said so, then there is nothing to worry about as a brother if he surrenders to the Wei army. ”
Yao Pu sat on the ground with his butt and suddenly lost color.
Unexpectedly, the teacher was such a teacher.
Could it be that this national disaster really can't be passed safely?
Datang, are you really going to die?
"What about faith?"
Yao Pu was skeptical, but he still wanted to witness the teacher's letter before he would give up.
Su Cheng said calmly: "It's burned, how can you keep this kind of letter for your brother?"
Yao Pu asked tentatively, "Then Brother Su, what is the so-called thing about coming to me today?"
Su Cheng said: "How many defenders do you still have in Yunshan Pass now?"
Yao Pu didn't hide anything, and said bluntly: "Seven thousand." ”
The garrison strength of Yunshan Pass has always been no secret.
Su Cheng stretched out two fingers and said, "The Wei army that attacked my Hucheng County has a full 200,000, do you think your Yunshan Pass can be defended?"
Yao Pu shook his head and said, "I can't hold it, the garrison force of Yunshan Pass is too weak." I heard that the Wei army divided its troops into eleven routes, and countless county towns have been captured by the Wei army, and it is estimated that it is only a matter of time before I am in Yunshan Pass. ”
The tone and expression are all a little lonely.
And Su Cheng took advantage of this opportunity to hurriedly grab Yao Pu's arm and said sincerely: "Come down, brother! If you want soldiers without soldiers, if you want money without money, if you want food without food, if you continue to fight, sooner or later you will die!"
Yao Pu was stunned, and for a while, he was at a loss.
Su Cheng continued: "Brother, if you don't surrender at this time, when will you wait? The Wei army is powerful, according to this situation, sooner or later, it will be to dominate the world, and at that time, we, as the first batch of ministers, will definitely be able to be reused by the emperor of Wei, for the sake of the common people of the world, for the sake of the people of Li, less experience of war, we only have this way to go!"
Yao Pu was even more confused.
Can surrender also affect the people of the world?
It's also too don't.
That's too high-sounding, isn't it?
Looking at Yao Pu's stunned appearance, Su Cheng took advantage of the victory to pursue, he stood upright, made a look of worrying about the country and the people, and said: "Do you think that Brother Wei really wants to surrender? Do you know what kind of situation he will face once he surrenders? He will be poked in the backbone by many people! But Brother Wei really has no choice!"
You say, how many years has the world been suffering from war? The general trend of the world has always been that if it is divided for a long time, it will be united and divided for a long time, and since the Qin State fell apart, there has never been a day of real peace in this world, either fighting a war, or on the way to a war, many people will die every day!
However, once Wei dominates the world? In this world, there will be no more wars, and all the people will be able to live and work in peace and contentment, and if we surrender, we will be able to make Wei's journey to unify the world faster, and the people of the world will be able to avoid some wars, and it will be worth it!
So, Brother Yao, my brother is very bitter in my heart, our surrender is due to the people, but it is guilty of the Tang State, now do you think that in the face of righteousness and Xiaozhong, what should you choose?"
Yao Pu was stunned and said, "I"
Just as he wanted to say something, he was interrupted by Su Chengyi's words: "I understand brother, you don't need to say much, I understand everything, I understand you for brother! Go, take you to see the Emperor of Wei, brother, thank you for joining us, let us fight together for the common people in the world, such a life will become meaningful!"
Yao Pu:.
In this way, Yao Pu surrendered in a daze.
The Wei army took over Yunshan Pass bloodlessly.
In this regard, Zhao Changqing had to look at Su Cheng differently.
Both of them were arranged to serve as generals in the army, and they were still in charge of the original soldiers and horses.
In Hucheng County, Zhao Changqing ordered Qi Jiguang to warmly entertain Su Cheng and Yao Pu.
The three of them drank late, and they all had a feeling of hating each other, of course, Qi Jiguang pretended this feeling.
After the wine was dispersed, he came to the council hall and saw that the prime minister and His Majesty were there, so he said, "The last general has seen Your Majesty." ”
Qi Jiguang smelled of wine, and when he came here, Zhao Changqing didn't feel any presumptuous at all, and asked kindly: "General Qi, is this too much to drink?"
Qi Jiguang smiled: "I did drink a lot." ”
Zhao Changqing quipped: "I heard that you never dare to drink at home, because you are afraid of guilt?"
Qi Jiguang scratched the back of his head, and said with a smile: "The main thing is to hurt my wife." ”
"There's nothing wrong with that. Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "When the war is over in the future, I will personally go to your house to ask for a glass of wine, let you drink with me, and see if your wife dares to stop you from drinking." ”
Qi Jiguang sighed: "I'm afraid that after Your Majesty leaves, you will never see the last general again." ”
The three of them burst into laughter.
Subsequently, Zhao Changqing said: "Getting back to business, let's discuss, how to take Dingdong County, there are nearly 20,000 defenders in this county, if it is forcibly attacked, I am afraid it will cause a lot of casualties, now is the time to save troops, after all, the territory of the Tang State is too vast, more than two million troops, in the land of the Tang State, it is still a little insufficient." ”
What he meant was that if you can win by stratagem, you must not use the lives of your soldiers to open the way.
