Chapter 1307 is a little confused
Hey, Bai Wang glanced at the east and sighed long: "At this time and that time, when Zuo Liangyu was besieging me, King Chuang had opened up a new world in the west and Zuo Liangyu was fighting...... Hehe, that's it, in fact, before you came, I was also full of ambition, at that time, the king's eastern expedition was like a bamboo, and I was invincible along the north of the river, and at that time I did feel that the world had been held in our hands...... But then the king was repelled by you, it is said that the heavy losses fled back to Xi'an, and then you led the troops to the south, although you and I have not formally fought but have learned your means, I know that I am invincible, and why bother to lose the lives of thousands of brothers, I also know that if you are defeated, the next step of the court is to make you Xizheng suppress the king, but I am afraid that he will not be able to hold for long, and finally have to flee to the southwest, and return to the dog that was lost a few years ago wandering in the barren mountains and mountains...... That being the case, why don't I now surrender to Cheng and change my life to glory, wealth and tens of thousands of soldiers."
Bai Wang's words were endless, and everyone who listened to them nodded, but Chang Yu smiled: "Since you know that you will be defeated, and this governor is sure to capture you, so why should you be surrendered, if you are directly defeated and captured, you can also save a seat in the Pillar Kingdom."
Bai Wang was furious, and said angrily: "Kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, even if I know that I will be defeated, how can I be at your mercy, don't look at your tens of thousands of troops and think that the road in front of me can reach the city of Chizhou, I will let you lose most of it, if I stick to Chizhou and Anqing, even if you can break the city and regain the lost land, there will still be a few people left, at that time, I will retreat to the deep mountains and old forests to fight with you endlessly, you will be the next Zuo Liangyu, how can you fight the king without soldiers in your hands, and even if the king is defeated and goes back to Xi'an a few years ago, what can you do, More than ten years of national strength has not extinguished us, and now the imperial treasury is empty, and it is better to have money and food than a few years earlier, even if there is one more you who can fight, what can you do with us? Can Daming spend more than ten years, now you have even transferred Wu Sangui's border army, it can be seen that there are almost no soldiers available except for money and no food, so you can only take the opportunity to draw it to the new defeat of the Tartars, but once the Tartars are relieved, you will take care of your heads! ”
Ma Ke, Lu Daqi and the others nodded again and again when they heard this, and looked at Chang Yu again, but the little eunuch still had the virtue of not entering: "Since you have seen it so thoroughly, then why do you need to descend, anyway, you think I can't kill you, Da Ming will not be able to hold on!" Why don't you be self-reliant and change your life?"
"That's because I don't want to be a rat anymore, and live that dark and unsightly day" Bai Wang roared angrily: "Once I surrender, you can send troops and horses to deal with Li Zicheng Daming will not be dragged to death, and I can still be the general of the Pillar State of Daming!" Saying that, he waited for Chang Yu viciously: "If you still don't believe it, then let's fight and lose both, and see how your tens of thousands of troops are wiped out."
"Ben Governor really doesn't believe it!" Chang Yu smiled slightly, Bai Wang turned his head angrily and was about to leave, Li Muxian hurriedly persuaded Bai Wang to keep Bai Wang, and whispered to Chang Yu: "If he really wants to surrender, wouldn't it be self-inflicted trouble for the adults to force him away."
"Do you think he's really going to surrender?" Chang Yu frowned slightly, and Li Muxian snorted: "Half and half, what he said is very reasonable, and he can see it very thoroughly, if he is really given a general of the Pillar Kingdom, it may really be lowered, and the price is not low, and he can even buy those henchmen and generals around the thief."
Chang Yu snorted coldly: "Those who can win the Great Ming Pillar Country, which one is not ascended by virtue of his great military exploits, and with the wave of his white flag, he will become a pillar country, then my Ming Pillar Country is too worthless."
"Why do you care about these now, Li Muxian persuaded, at this time, if he is true or false, we can also draw a scoop according to the gourd."
Chang Yu thought for a while and nodded slightly, then said to Bai Wang, who was still angry over there: "You are the head of the thieves on the imperial court list, and there are thousands of cities under your command and several cities in your hands, plus if you surrender, you will be severely injured and the thieves will have a great impact on the current situation, so if you sincerely surrender to the imperial court, the governor of this pillar country can give you a guarantee, but how can you make the governor believe that you are not a fraud."
"I am willing to take the son as a hostage" Bai Wang's chin raised, and Chang Yu laughed when he heard this: "How do you know if this governor is a son, then the godson can recognize ten or eight at will, and it is not impossible for you to find an orphan everywhere to make fun of this governor!" "Just kidding, if there is DNA in these years, I can't confirm the bloodline.
"You can tell if it's a real son at a glance" Bai Wang snorted coldly: "But how can you guarantee that you are not playing tricks with me, what if I surrender and you break your promise or trap me."
"Then what do you say," Chang Yu said casually.
"Within three days, let the imperial court announce to the world that I will be the general of the Pillar Kingdom!" Bai Wang said word by word.
Chang Yu was silent, looked at Li Muxian and saw that he was also bowing his head and pondering, so he said to Bai Wang: "This governor can't agree to you immediately, this matter needs to be discussed, but since you propose to surrender, you should show sincerity first."
Bai Wang nodded: "Okay, I'll send the dog when I turn around, and I'll wait for you to believe it within three days, if you break your promise, I'll fight for the dog's life and ask you to bury tens of thousands of horses!" ”
Chang Yu sighed: "Don't say these useless cruel words, do something practical" said and arched his hand: "I will reply to you at this time tomorrow at the latest."
Bai Wang hummed, hit the horse and returned, and Chang Yu also collected his troops and returned to the city.
In the yamen, Chang Yu stroked the table and looked at the courtyard in a daze, while Lu Daqi, Ma Ke, Wu Sangui and others whispered to each other.
After a long time, Chang Yu's eyes swept everyone: "How much do you think Bai Wang's sincerity in surrendering?" ”
"The head of Bai Wang's analysis is that his words are also very sincere, and the lower officials feel that the credibility is high" Lu Daqi took the lead in speaking, and Wu Sangui coughed lightly: "At this time, it is just his words, and his words are unfounded, and it depends on what he does next, if he is really sincere, in addition to taking the son as a hostage, let him withdraw his troops for ten miles first, if he does not comply, it will be another matter."
Everyone who listened to Wu Sangui's words nodded, and Chang Yu suddenly became enlightened, and couldn't help but pat the table: "Yes, let's try him with this!" ”
"In fact, we don't have to worry about whether it surrenders or not, just prepare for war, if it falls, it is naturally good, and if it does not surrender, we can send troops to attack it at any time!" Ma Ke's eyes were firm, and Chang Yu stroked his palm: "What Ma Zongbing said is extremely true, whether he surrenders or not, it will not affect our preparations for war" He turned his head and said to Lu Daqi: "Regardless of whether Bai Wang is true or false, Lord Shangshu just deals with him, if he sees his sincerity within three days, the governor will play the court for him, and if he is still left and right, he will send troops to attack!" ”
When everyone was talking in the hall, Lao Jiu from outside came to report that the thief had sent a young man who said that he was Bai Wang's young son, and that he was brought to the hall by an eight or nine-year-old child, who looked seven or eight points similar to Bai Wang.
"Who do you think will keep their son by their side when they go out to fight?" Chang Yu sneered, he didn't believe that this was Bai Wang's son, maybe he just happened to meet an orphan similar to himself with him.
"The last general fought with his father when he was a child" Wu Sangui's words made Chang Yu very embarrassed, and suddenly thought that many children of the Jiangmen family were indeed very young and helped up on the battlefield to open their eyes, especially on the Manchu side, there were seven or eight years old, and they grew up in the military camp since they were children, so they were particularly strong when they grew up to fight.
"And this son is obviously used to seeing scenes at a young age without fear, and he is not an ordinary rural orphan who can compare" Ma Ke also thought that it was Bai Wang's son, and suddenly remembered something: "The king should always know it, right?" ”
So Chang Yu asked people to find Wang Tizhong, and when he saw the young man, he nodded and said, "It's Bai Wang's son Bai Xingfeng." This made Chang Yu stunned, could it be that Bai Wang really wanted to surrender, or was he just a bitter ploy, reluctant to let the child catch the wolf.
