Chapter 780 Jingzhou ends
In this situation, there is little point in resisting, it is just to increase the bloodshed, but how can the king surrender to the ministers.
In order to show etiquette and the retreat of those soldiers in the city in the future, Wen Ping did not refuse and chose to meet him.
When Pang Tong entered the city, he poked out from the mouth of the leader, Liu Biao was seriously ill in bed, and everything in the city was decided by Wen Ping.
Wen is not a stranger to Pang Tong, so it is still a little difficult to persuade him to surrender this time.
Entering the lobby, Pang Tong bowed to Wen Ping, who was the first on the left, and said with a smile: "General Wen's name is like thunder in Jingzhou, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation." ”
Sycophants, Wen Ping did not change, and still said with a cold expression: "You are here to persuade you to surrender, right?" ”
Seeing that Wen Ping went straight to the point, Pang Tong was not polite, and replied: "Exactly, if General Wen doesn't want to see Nanjun become scorched earth, it is best to lead his troops to surrender." ”
"Hmph." Wen Ping snorted coldly and said: "As a native of Jingzhou, you don't feel the grace of Liu Zhoumu, but you fell into the well at a critical moment, don't you feel blushing?" ”
In his eyes, everyone in Jingzhou should be loyal to Liu Biao, if it weren't for Liu Biao, they wouldn't have a stable life.
In the face of Wenpin's accusations, Pang Tong didn't care, elaborated from the overall situation, moved with emotion in Xiaozhi, and said that Wenpin was speechless.
Seeing that Wen Ping had nothing to say, but he didn't speak, Pang Tong threw out a temptation according to his train of thought.
"General Wen, Liu Biao is seriously ill in bed, you don't want to cure him, but let him wait for death, is this what you call loyalty?"
"There are famous doctors Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo in the north, whose medical skills can bring the dead back to life, why don't General Wen take Liu Biao to go."
Hearing this, Wen Ping was a little moved in his heart, after all, Nanjun insisted on it, and it didn't make much sense, but if he went to the north, would Li Huiyi let Liu Biao go?
The hatred of taking his wife is that he doesn't share the sky, and Wen Ping thinks that if he lets go of himself, he will definitely not let go of the other party.
"What you said is just a pretext, after surrendering, Liu Zhoumu will still have his life? Hire or not. ”
Indeed, Pang Tong didn't know what Li Huiyi would do, but he just wanted to persuade him with the weakness of literary recruitment.
At this time, seeing Wen Ping's doubts, he fell into a short thought, and then said carefully: "General Wen, don't hide it, Liu Biao's enmity with the general, I'm afraid that even if he dies, he will be crushed and ashes." ”
"If the general surrenders, the general can make a private claim, spare your two lives, and write a letter, so that you can go to the north and get Zhang Zhongjing's treatment."
This Pang Tong said that it is the best result, if he goes to the north incognito and cures Liu Biao, he will be considered to be loyal to the end, so that he will have a good ending.
Wen Ping changed his tone slightly and said, "How will Ben believe you?" ”
Pang Tong spread his hands and replied, "General Wen, do you have a better suggestion than this?" ”
Indeed, in addition to Pang Tong's method, Wen Ping can't think of any better. "Okay, then tell me how you're going to do it."
Seeing that Wen Ping's heart was moved, Pang Tong hurriedly said: "It's simple, you two cheated to death and changed your identity again, no." ”
Fraudulent death?
This method is good, Wen Ping after some thought, finally agreed, out of safety considerations, he asked Pang Tong to write a letter for medical treatment, and then handed his own letter to Pang Tong, asking him to surrender the army two hours after he left.
In order to prevent Pang Tong from going back on his word, Wen Ping left several henchmen to take care of him to ensure that there would be no accidents.
As long as Nanjun is won, as for Liu Biao's life or death, Pang Tong doesn't care about it, so he naturally won't resist.
Two hours, the past is very fast, as soon as the time comes, Pang Tong took the letter written by Wen Ping, and the cronies left behind, it was logical to take over Nanjun.
can take over so easily, in fact, more than half of it is because the defenders in the city have no will to fight, but because of the prestige of Wenpin in the past, there is no mutiny.
Therefore, Pang Tong came just as they wanted, and they would care about what was true or false.
Nanjun, Jingzhou was divided into three parts, of which Cao Cao occupied the most, but to say that it was prosperous and rich, it was necessary to count the two counties occupied by Wei Yan.
After taking these two counties, he didn't use many swords, so the loss was not big, on the contrary, he also got a lot of soldiers, and his strength was better than before.
In this way, Wei Yan naturally did not stop, rested in Nanjun for more than half a month, left some soldiers and horses to guard, and waved his troops straight to Jiangxia.
Jiangxia is an important stronghold for Jingzhou to attack Yangzhou, and whoever loses and who gains will decide the direction, so Sun Ce also attaches great importance to it, and constantly transfers large troops from the rear, leaving only the defense army on the border of Xuzhou unmoved, and the rest of the territory and other places, there are almost no troops.
In the face of Sun Ce's stubborn appearance, Wei Yan did not dare to act easily, so he could only form an economic blockade, lead the army to Tuntian, and put on a posture that would attack at any time, ready to die with Sun Ce.
Wei Yan didn't take the initiative to attack, and Sun Ce, who was not sure, didn't dare to take the initiative to attack, and the two sides stabilized for the time being.
Xuzhou, this important military base, after several years of construction, has been modeled, and there are tens of thousands of naval troops, but they have not been shot again.
This time, under Li Huiyi's order, Xu Shu did not make a big move, but kept stationing troops on the border, wanting to deter Sun Ce and make him dare not easily mobilize the army.
Judging from the results, Xu Shu's move still had some results, at least involving one-third of Sun Ce's soldiers and horses.
If you only think that Xu Shu is just involved, then you think wrong, the navy that has been trained in Qingzhou for a long time has quietly rushed to Xuzhou since Xu Shu made a move.
The navy, without three or five years, is difficult to form at all, and there is almost no combat effectiveness on the water.
In this era of cold weapons, the navy without combat effectiveness, no matter how well the formation is trained, it is only a virtual chart and is vulnerable.
However, as a traverser, how could Li Huiyi not think of this, so as early as he took Qingzhou, he ordered people to start building warships.
And this warship is not an ordinary warship of this era, but a car ship that has a trace of the Tang Dynasty's wheel instead of oar, and its endurance and resistance ability are far greater than now.
In addition, Li Huiyi was equipped with an improved catapult on the warship, which had a firing range of up to 150 meters against the wind and nearly 300 meters downwind, which was considered a half-formed artillery.
Therefore, these naval forces do not need to be familiar with water operations at all, and under normal circumstances, the enemy army does not have the opportunity to fight close at all.
However, in order to avoid this situation, Gan Ning, the commander of the naval army, was also prepared, and selected nearly 10,000 soldiers with combat effectiveness in the army to form a ship escort division to ensure emergencies.
At the Guangling border water pass, Gan Ning led an army of 50,000 to arrive quietly a few days ago, and the news was tightly blocked, and the outside world could not hear it at all.
