Sha Shaoyuan looked at Liu Tianyang quietly, and Liu Tianyang also looked at Sha Shaoyuan quietly.

The cold blade pressed against his neck, sending a chill down his heart. But on the surface, Liu Tianyang did not have the slightest timidity.

Entering Sha Shaoyuan's military camp, what he might encounter, Liu Tianyang had already prepared in his heart.

"Kill you?" Sha Shaoyuan's voice was low and calm: "If the old man kills you here, he will immediately provoke a dispute, presumably the sergeants under your command will immediately pour out of the nest and fight with me to the death." ”

"General Sha is too worried. Liu Tianyang's voice was calm, neither humble nor arrogant: "When I left, the whole army was informed that those who were willing to stay in the barracks could stay, and those who were willing to go home could go home." Now, in the entire barracks, all the sergeants have laid down their arms. We are the direct troops of Wufeng City, Wufeng City has surrendered, and the leader's order has been delivered, and there is no possibility of disobeying the order. ”

"Outside, there is no military order. Sha Shaoyuan sneered and said: "You have been confronting our army for many days, and you have not made the slightest move, and you have not responded immediately to the letter I sent, and today you suddenly want to raise troops to surrender, and 40,000 soldiers surrender without a fight, you let me, how can I believe you?"

The corners of Liu Tianyang's mouth turned up, and he said softly: "The next life is in the hands of General Sha, whether you believe it or not, it is all up to General Sha to decide." If the general kills me, please be kind to my subordinates, none of the soldiers in Wufeng City have ever fought with the East Palace, and there has never been any enmity. ”

Sha Shaoyuan's eyes were shining, and he looked at Liu Tianyang with a pair of eyes, trying to see clues on his face. But Liu Tianyang has always looked calm, without any waves, and his tone of voice is neither humble nor arrogant, without the slightest trembling. Even at the moment of life and death, he did not show a trace of cowardice, which made Sha Shaoyuan nod secretly in his heart, and at the same time, he became more and more suspicious.

No matter how you think about it, although Sha Shaoyuan has experienced a hundred battles, he has never encountered the matter of leading the whole army to surrender without any battle.

He couldn't see what Liu Tianyang thought, but in his heart, he still preferred Liu Tianyang to have a back hand.

"I ask you. Sha Shaoyuan said softly: "With my 30,000 sergeants, you will surrender by your 40,000 sergeants, what do you think?"

When Liu Tianyang heard Sha Shaoyuan's words, his expression suddenly darkened, he looked at Sha Shaoyuan, and said softly: "Don't hide it from the general, with my original intention, I don't want to start a war with the Dongwang Mansion, and I don't want my subordinate soldiers to fight this battle with no chance of winning." These fights are fundamentally meaningless. ”

When Sha Shaoyuan heard this, he raised his eyebrows, and looked at Liu Tianyang with more interest, his answer was beyond Sha Shaoyuan's expectations.

"Go on. ”

"The enclave is poor, the land is wide and the fields are few, the mountains and rivers are crisscrossed, and after the brother unified the enclave, although the long-term mutual attack ended, the enclave was able to recuperate. But compared to the Qitian Empire on the other side of the Canglan River, it is a difference between cloud and mud. Fighting against the heavens with an enclave is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. Fighting against the East Wangfu with an enclave is even more of a fool's dream. Before, with the natural danger of the Black Rock Bridge, he could still have a safe corner, but now he took the initiative to give up the city gate, intending to trap the people of the East Wangfu in the enclave, this decision is simply ridiculous. ”

"The Canglan River is a good natural danger, but when you enter the enclave, you can't just enter the enclave. If I really confront the East Prince's Mansion head-on, recapture the Blackstone Bridge, and trap the three major city lords of the East Prince's Mansion in the enclave, what I will get later is not the peace of the enclave, but the monstrous anger of the entire territory of the East Prince's Mansion. ”

"As the leader's brother and the aborigines of the enclave, I have personally participated in the process of unifying the enclave, experienced a lot, seen the suffering of the people, and knew that peace is not suitable. ”

"Moreover, the current Dongwang Mansion's desire for enclaves is even better than before, and it can be seen from the direct investment of the three city lords. ”

"If you really confront the Eastern Prince's Mansion head-on at this time, it will not bring peace to the enclave, but will only bring a larger-scale war. If this continues, the Eastern Prince's Mansion may go all out and take down the entire enclave. ”

"If I really go to war with the Shajiang Army and fight bloody battles in front of this Blackstone Bridge, I am not helping the enclave, but becoming the sinner of the entire enclave. ”

"There were all kinds of constraints before, and I couldn't directly surrender to the East Palace. Now that I have received my brother's order, I know that the wood is already in the boat, and even if I fight hard, I can't change the outcome. ”

Therefore, he took 40,000 elite soldiers from Wufeng City and surrendered to the East Palace. For the sake of long-term peace and stability, for the sake of the people of the enclave. And for my Wufeng City, and my brother. ”

Liu Tianyang's face was calm and eloquent. He told him all what he had thought in the past few days. After saying these words, he felt that a big stone in his heart was finally put down.

The key to the dispute between the Dongwangfu and the local forces in the enclave lies in two points.

Tian Yuanbai's 40,000 defenders of Wufeng City, and Liu Tianyang's 40,000 Blackstone Bridge attacking troops.

Tian Yuanbai's defenders had all retreated to the Leyang City area at this moment, and Liu Tianyi, the lord of Wufeng City and the leader of the enclave, announced the entire enclave and ordered all the cities to surrender. This shows that Wufeng City is already under the control of the Eastern Palace.

Things were not in Liu Tianyang's expectation at all. The speed of the East Palace's Mansion was also beyond his imagination.

If he really started a war with Sha Shaoyuan before, he himself could not guarantee that he would be able to take the city wall before the reinforcements from the Eastern Palace's mansion arrived. If the city walls cannot be taken, then what will be brought to the enclave will be endless war.

The Eastern Prince's Mansion will no longer adopt a peaceful strategy, and it is very likely that it will directly start a war, advance one city after another, and eventually take the entire enclave.

Liu Tianyang admits that he is not the opponent of the Hundred Battles of the Lion of the East Palace.

Sha Shaoyuan listened to Liu Tianyang quietly, and his thoughts were flying.

He couldn't hear the clues from Liu Tianyang's words. But as the commander of the army, he would not believe Liu Tianyang's words, so he believed that Liu Tianyang would surrender directly with an army of 40,000.

This is a bit shocking in every way.

Sha Shaoyuan raised his hand slightly, and the sergeants on both sides took down the long knife that was on Liu Tianyang's neck, which made Liu Tianyang secretly relieved.

"Since General Liu is willing to surrender, how to operate in the future, the general should have a plan in his heart, right?" Sha Shaoyuan, raising his hand, a sergeant moved out a chair and placed it behind Liu Tianyang.

Liu Tianyang clasped his fists, thanked Sha Shaoyuan for his seat, and after sitting down, he said softly: "Although the subordinate sergeants are obedient to me, General Sha only has 30,000 elite soldiers under him at the moment, and 40,000 soldiers will definitely not be able to digest it." In your opinion, General, it is good that you can send an army to collect all the weapons in our barracks, and then surround the whole camp into a prison, and surround me with a kind of sergeant, so that it will be easier to keep an eye on. ”

"Wait for the follow-up reinforcements of the East Palace's Mansion to arrive, and then discuss separately. Liu Tianyang looked at Sha Shaoyuan and whispered his thoughts.

Sha Shaoyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, what Liu Tianyang said was a solution, but he still had some concerns in his heart, and opened his mouth and said: "General Liu, aren't you afraid that after you abandon your weapons and surrender, I will kill all your 40,000 troops?"

When Liu Tianyang heard this, he smiled slightly, and said: "I don't have to worry about this, if the Dongwang Mansion is really so bloodthirsty, it will never surrender without a fight." The expansion of the Eastern Palaces is extremely fast, and if it is really murderous, the territory obtained will not be all returned, and the Eastern Palaces will not have the achievements it has today. ”

Sha Shaoyuan nodded lightly, looking at Liu Tianyang's appearance, he was very calm, he should know the Dongwang Mansion very well, and concluded that he would not do anything to slaughter the prisoners.

"Good. Sha Shaoyuan said softly: "In this case, I will arrange for the sergeant to go and collect the weapons." ”

Saying this, Sha Shaoyuan looked at Liu Tianyang deadly, but Liu Tianyang's face did not change, and he replied softly: "Everything is decided by the general." ”

"Okay, take General Liu down, be entertained, and don't miss a little. Sha Shaoyuan couldn't see any clues from Liu Tianyang's complexion, so he immediately ordered.

Liu Tianyang stood up from his seat, clasped his fists at Sha Shaoyuan, and then walked out of the camp with two Dongwangfu sergeants.

On the side of Shashaoyuan's camp, there are several other camp tents, which are used by other generals. Liu Tianyang came to surrender, and it was impossible for Sha Shaoyuan to put him back, so he chose a camp tent and detained Liu Tianyang and his party of seven people in the camp tent.

Liu Tianyang was calm in his heart and accepted Sha Shaoyuan's arrangement safely.

After Liu Tian raised it, Sha Shaoyuan gently stroked his beard and fell into deep thought.

He couldn't directly determine the truth of what Liu Tianyang said, but the matter had come to this point, and Liu Tianyang's 40,000 soldiers were still in the camp.

"The order, the two brigades attacked, went straight to the other camp, collected the enemy's weapons, and if they resisted, they could be withdrawn, and they could not be in battle. Sha Shaoyuan did not convene the generals to discuss, but directly ordered.

The herald at the door received the order and immediately passed it on.

"Send a herald to send the news back to the palace, and ask the little prince to reply immediately. ”

The two orders were passed quickly, and after a while, in the camp of the East Wangfu, a horse sprang out, followed the Black Stone Bridge, and went straight to the East Wangfu.

A moment later, two groups of cavalry left the camp and slowly marched towards the enemy camp.

Sha Shaoyuan, out of the camp tent, stood on the city wall, and watched from afar.

I saw the enemy's tent, the tent door was wide open, and my two teams of men and horses surrounded the gate of the tent, and the sergeants inside came out from time to time and put piles of weapons outside the tent.

Sha Shaoyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the current development of things was as Liu Tianyang said. It was as if all his sergeants had surrendered, without the slightest resistance.

But Sha Shaoyuan did not slack off. He had given the order to order 4,000 cavalry to be ready to attack, and if the enemy made the slightest movement, he would immediately step forward and welcome back the two groups of men and horses in front of him.

After a long time, the enemy army did not move in the slightest, and the weapons and crossbows that had been piled up in front of the large camp had faintly formed a small mountain.

None of the two thousand sergeants moved, just watched quietly, waiting for the enemy sergeant, who would still be outside the camp with weapons in his hands.

Immediately, Sha Shaoyuan sent two teams of sergeants again to collect weapons.

In the process, there really was not the slightest resistance.

Just when Sha Shaoyuan was sending men and horses to collect the enemy's weapons, a reply from the Dongwang Mansion came.
