Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Seeing Deng Feng fleeing all the way south with the remnants, Liu Xiu judged that Deng Feng most likely wanted to escape to Xinye and regroup in Xinye. Xinye is Deng Feng's lair, and Liu Xiu will not give Deng Feng a chance to return to Xinye.

Because of the blockage of the Jianyi Department, Deng Fengbu was forced to change the escape route and made a big circle. Liu Xiu sent Cen Peng, led an army of 50,000, and hurried to Xinye, blocking Deng Feng's route to Xinye.

The actual situation was really guessed correctly by Liu Xiu, Deng Feng was planning to retreat to Xinye. However, Cen Peng led the army to enter Xinye first.

After arriving in Xinye, Cen Peng was also taken aback by Xinye's tragic image.

At that time, the largest city in the south of Nanyang, the bustling and lively Xinye has long disappeared without a trace, replaced by devastation and ruins.

This is still the situation that Yan Guang has led people to repair many buildings, otherwise, the scene in Xinye will be even more miserable.

Seeing Xinye's appearance, Cen Peng couldn't help but sigh secretly, no wonder the people of Nanyang hated Wu Han so much, Wu Han did too much in Xinye at the beginning.

Before Liu Xiu sent Cen Peng, he also specially told him that after arriving in Xinye, he should do his best to relieve the people in the city and repair the buildings in the city.

Cen Peng kept Liu Xiu's advice in mind, and not long after he led the army into Xinye, Yan Guang came over. Seeing Yan Guang, Cen Peng was overjoyed, with a smile on his face, he bowed his hand and said, "Mr. Yan! ”

Yan Guang returned the salute and said, "General Cen! ”

Yan Guang, who was in Xinye, also heard about some battles ahead, and knew that Deng Feng was defeated in Blockage. He asked, "General Cen went to Xinye this time, but to intercept Deng Feng?" ”

Cen Peng Zhengse said: "The first is to intercept Deng Feng, and the second is to repair Xinye. His Majesty has always been thinking about Xinye, and sent Peng to come, hoping to restore the original appearance of Xinye to the greatest extent. ”

After hearing this, Yan Guang nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's very good!" With the help of General Cen's tens of thousands of soldiers, Xinye City will be restored as before, just around the corner! ”

Cen Peng suddenly thought of something, reached into his arms, took out a silk edict, handed it to Yan Guang, and said, "This is the edict from His Majesty to Peng before Peng left. ”

Yan Guang hurriedly took the edict and took a closer look.

This edict is more like a letter of self-blame from Liu Xiu, taking the fault for the destruction of Xinye City on himself, and from beginning to end, he did not mention Wu Han, who actually destroyed Xinye and made the slaughter of the city. Seeing this, Yan Guang couldn't help but smile bitterly, Uncle Wen's character has never changed, and he will make unremitting efforts to maintain the people he likes and admires, and would rather take all the blame on himself than push Wu Han out

。

At the back of the edict is the compensation for Shinno, who will be exempted from all taxes for five years. After Yan Guang finished reading it, Cen Peng said: "Your Majesty means that this edict is posted in Xinye, Peng thinks it's not appropriate!" ”

The content of the back, exempting taxes for five years, Cen Peng felt that there was no problem, but the content of the front of the edict, which was simply the edict of the Son of Heaven, was posted in Xinye in the form of an announcement, which would inevitably damage the majesty of the Son of Heaven.

Yan Guang thought for a while, and said with a smile: "General Cen will do what His Majesty wants!" ”

Under normal circumstances, the Son of Heaven will indeed not take all the blame on himself, but will push it to the courtiers and let the courtiers stand up as scapegoats.

But the actual situation is that if the courtiers make mistakes, is the Son of Heaven really not responsible at all? Wu Han dared to slaughter the city in Xinye, did it really have nothing to do with the connivance of the Son of Heaven for him?

Therefore, Liu Xiu's promulgation of the edict of guilt is not a big problem, but Yan Guang is not used to seeing that he did not mention a word of Wu Han in the edict of guilt.

Cen Peng pondered for a moment, nodded, and asked His Majesty's edict to be transcribed on the announcement and posted in a prominent place in Xinye.

Yan Guang said with deep relief: "If you want Xinye to return to its original state, more people need to come to Xinye. Your Majesty exempted Xinye from taxes for five years, which will attract a lot of people to settle in Xinye! ”

Cen Peng sighed: "After such a long time of conquest, not only Xinye, but also all parts of Nanyang are full of devastation, and it is really heartbreaking to watch!" ”

Yan Guang changed his words and asked, "What does General Cen think Your Majesty will do with Deng Feng?" ”

His words stunned Cen Pengwen. Now that Deng Feng has only been defeated, and he has not been captured alive by his own side, what can he do about how to deal with it? Seeing his doubts, Yan Guang shook his head with a faint smile and said: "Your Majesty has a strong foundation, even if you suffer one or two defeats, it will not have much impact on Your Majesty, and Deng Feng's foundation is only in the county of Nanyang, even if he is in full swing."

At the same time, the foundation is also very thin, and only one defeat is enough for him to never recover, and there is no place for him to turn over. ”

Cen Peng looked at Yan Guang for a moment, laughed out loud, and admired: "Although Mr. Yan is not in the army, he sees it very thoroughly!" ”

After a pause, he shook his head and said, "What Your Majesty will do with Deng Feng, I don't know, the key depends on what Deng Feng does." ”

Yan Guang asked, "What did General Cen say about this?" Cen Peng Zhengse said: "Your Majesty has always been benevolent, if Deng Fengken takes the initiative to give up resistance and lead his troops to surrender, His Majesty will spare him nine times out of ten, at least he will not ask for his life, but if Deng Feng is stubborn and carries it to the end......" said this

, He shook his head and said, "I'm afraid the gods can't save him!" ”

After he finished speaking, Yan Guang fell silent, and after a long time, he said faintly, "I know. ”

Next, Yan Guang led Cen Peng to familiarize himself with the current situation in Xinye City, and saw that many people in the city were yellow-faced and hungry, so Cen Peng transferred food from the army and distributed it to the people in the city.

The day after Cen Peng led his troops to Xinye, a spy came to report that Deng Fengzheng led the remnants to Xinye. When Cen Peng learned of this, he immediately led the 50,000 Han troops under his command to go out of the city to line up and put on a posture to meet the battle.

Deng Fengjun and Cen Pengjun, there was only a small-scale battle outside Xinye City, seeing that the Han army was outnumbered and strong, Deng Feng knew that he was invincible, and immediately ordered the whole army to retreat.

Deng Fengjun, who tried to escape back to Xinye, was blocked by the Yancen Department and was forced to run back. In the end, Deng Feng led the remnants to Yuyang. Yuyang is located between Xinye and Wancheng, next to the water, and is also an important town in Nanyang.

Liu Xiujun and Cen Pengjun approached Yuyang from the north and south, forming a trap on Yuyang.

At this time, Deng Feng had no way to escape, either to fight or surrender.

Whether it was a battle or a surrender, Deng Fengjun also had internal disagreements.

Some of the soldiers have been defeated and fled by their own side in a series of battles, and they are disheartened and have no fighting spirit, and these soldiers all advocate surrendering to the Han army.

However, most of the soldiers are still in the main battle, believing that their side still has a chance to turn defeat into victory.

Before the Han army arrived in Yuyang, Yan Guang and Deng Zijun came to Yuyang first. Because of Deng Zijun's relationship, Yan Guang met Deng Feng very smoothly.

At this time, Deng Feng had lost his former brilliance, his face was black and white, with blood stains and dust, and the armor on his body was also bloodstained and covered with a layer of dust.

Seeing Yan Guang and Deng Zijun, Deng Feng didn't smile on his face and squeezed a hard smile, and said, "Mr. Yan, Zijun!" ”

Yan Guang first bowed his hand, then straightened up and asked, "What are Yuanzhi's plans now?" ”

Deng Feng raised his eyebrows, laughed hehehe, and asked rhetorically, "Does Mr. Yan think I have been defeated?" ”

Yan Guang sighed secretly and said meaningfully: "Yuanzhi, in the battle of blocking the township, your department fought with the Yancen Department and Dong Xun Department, but it still can't be won, and now only the remnants of your army are left, can you still win?" ”

Hearing this, Deng Feng's face suddenly became gloomy. He stared at Yan Guang intently, and said word by word: "Then what does Mr. Yan mean that I should lead my troops to surrender to Liu Xiu now?" ”

As he spoke, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and the murderous aura in his body increased.

Seeing this, Deng Zijun hurriedly said: "Big brother, Ziling is right! Now that the eldest brother is going to surrender, Liu Xiu will definitely not kill the eldest brother, if the eldest brother wants to fight again, the consequences will ...... Consequences ......"

She couldn't take it anymore, her eyes were wet and red, and her eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

During this time, Deng Zijun has been following Yan Guang, cleaning up the mess in Xinye, and seeing many scenes that she has never seen before.

In order to fight for a piece of dry food, the hungry people in the city did not hesitate to fight, eager to kill all the same kind around them, so that they could monopolize such a small piece of dry food, and some people were even so hungry that they did not hesitate to pick up the corpses buried in the ground and eat them.

After seeing too much, her heart is numb, and she has matured a lot, and she is no longer the little girl who was sheltered by her two brothers. Seeing that the little sister was crying urgently, the cold glint in Deng Feng's eyes dissipated, and the murderous aura on his body also dissipated, he looked at the little sister and said quietly: "Big brother will not surrender!" Even if he fights to the point of a single soldier, the eldest brother will continue to fight, and tens of thousands of people who died in vain for Xinye,

Get justice! ”

Deng Zijun said: "Big brother, no one wants to continue to fight anymore!" Moreover, Liu Xiu has issued an edict that Xinye will be exempted from taxes for five years, and I believe that soon Xinye will return to its prosperity of the year! ”

"It's too late!" Deng Feng said in a condensed voice: "Can Liu Xiu resurrect the tens of thousands of dead people?" Will he be able to recall the spirits of the dead who died in vain? Now he is standing up with hypocrisy and righteousness, but what was he doing when Wu Han slaughtered the city? ”

Speaking of this, Deng Feng's eyes turned red. The people of Xinye, who died in vain, can't live anymore, and the woman he loves can't live either, and now Deng Feng has nothing else in his heart but hatred.

Deng Feng ignored the persuasion of Yan Guang and Deng Zijun, and made up his mind that he wanted to fight Liu Xiu to the death. Taking advantage of the gap when the Han army had not yet arrived in Yuyang, he sent a message to the counties of Nanyang and recruited troops again.

But this time, Liu Xiu's strategy of drawing salaries from the bottom of the kettle worked.

Now the people in all parts of Nanyang have heard that as long as Nanyang belongs to the Luoyang Imperial Court, then all counties in Nanyang will be exempted from taxes for two years, and after two years, fifteen taxes will be implemented.

These two policies are too tempting for the people of Nanyang, who have suffered from the scourge of war and are heavily burdened.

Emotionally, people still support Deng Feng, but physically, they will no longer fight with Liu Xiu and fight against the Han army for Deng Feng.

In addition, after learning of the preferential policies of the imperial court for Xinye, the people of Nanyang moved to Xinye one after another, and even the people outside Nanyang began to migrate to Nanyang.

In the case of the imperial court taking special care of Nanyang, Nanyang has shown signs of prosperity. In this case, of course, people are more willing to live and work in peace and contentment, who is willing to carry their heads and follow Deng Feng to create Liu Xiu's rebellion, and ruin their good life?
