Chapter 960: Taking the Plains (2)
Zhao Feng pondered for a long time: "Taking the plain, Xu Huang has made a lot of contributions." ”
"In this battle, Xu Huang should be the first to make a contribution!"
Then he waved his hand: "Go." ”
"The army is converging in Taishou Mansion!"
The sentry sent by Xu Huang bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”
After saying this, he turned the horse's head and rode away.
Wait for the sentry sent by Xu Huang to leave.
Zhao Feng summoned the sentry sent by Lu Su, and the sentry sent by Wen Chou: "Go back and tell your general." ”
"Let's just say that the north gate has been broken by Xu Huang."
The two sentry riders bowed their hands to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”
After saying that, he turned the horse's head and rode away directly.
Wait for the two sentinels to leave.
Zhao Feng looked at the herald beside him: "Go and inform Zhang He." ”
"Let's just say that the north city gate is broken, let him go to the city to call the battle, and open the city to surrender to avoid death, otherwise it will be liquidated later, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
The herald arched his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”
After speaking, he rode his horse in the direction of Zhang He's tribe and left quickly.
The news that the North City Gate was broken, Xu Huang could send someone to inform him, so the defenders of the other city gates in the city, more or less, would definitely receive some rumors.
Therefore, these generals defending the city will have a great possibility to directly open the city gate and choose to surrender.
After all, the north city gate has been breached, and even if they continue to guard the city gate, it is useless.
What's more, even if the North City Gate is not broken by Xu Huang, within today, the East City Gate will be broken!
In less than a moment, Zhang He led less than 3,000 troops and continued to drive towards the east gate of the plain.
When Zhang He's tribe was about to arrive at the city.
Zhao Feng saw the guards at the east gate of the plain, opened the city gate directly, and then took the soldiers, raised their weapons, and slowly walked out of the city gate.
The guard led his soldiers until he was forty paces away from Zhang He's troops, then threw his weapons on the ground and returned to line up outside the city gate.
In less than a moment, at least more than 1,500 soldiers went out of the city, discarding their weapons and forming a phalanx outside the city gates.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Feng knew that the generals guarding the city at the East City Gate had indeed shown sincerity.
There are more than 1,500 people who have thrown away their weapons and surrendered, even if there are still some remnants in the city who are unwilling to surrender, there will not be too many.
Zhao Feng turned his head to look at Xiong Da: "Order Zhang He, pack up all the weapons, and send people to take these soldiers into custody." ”
"In addition, the task of guarding the East City Gate has also been handed over to him."
Xiong Da bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”
After speaking, he rode his horse in the direction of Zhang He's tribe.
Wait for the bear to leave.
Zhao Feng waved his hand and said loudly: "The army has entered the city!" ”
After speaking, he pinched Jiechen's stomach, and then led the army to the east city gate.
When Zhao Feng led his army to the city gate.
Zhang Heyi led 2,000 soldiers into the city and took over the west gate.
Less than a thousand soldiers were left, and the armor of the plains defenders was being collected.
Zhao Feng has no opinion on Zhang He's approach.
After all, Zhang He's current troop is less than 3,000 people.
He had to defend the city and guard more than 1,500 plain defenders, and if he didn't completely disarm the plain defenders, Zhang He was also worried that there would be an accident.
Zhao Feng only looked at the situation for a moment, then led the army and continued to enter the city.
After entering the city, because they were still facing the war, there were no people on both sides of the street to watch.
Arrived all the way smoothly, the Taishou Mansion in the middle of the plain.
When Zhao Feng arrived with his troops, the Plains Taishou Mansion was already surrounded by heavy troops.
I saw Zhao Feng coming.
Xu Huang rode his horse to Zhao Feng and bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Lord Qiqi!" ”
"The plain is too guarded, with more than 1,000 guards, retreat to the Taishou Mansion."
"Plains Taishou said that he is willing to surrender!"
Zhao Feng smiled: "Gongming has worked hard. ”
"Send someone to tell the Plains Taishou, and say that I have arrived."
"Let him send an envoy out to discuss the surrender in detail."
Xu Huang arched his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”
With that, he rode back to his own tribe.
It didn't take long.
Zhao Feng saw that Xu Huang sent a person and walked to the gate of the Taishou Mansion.
Then the man was welcomed in alone.
A moment later.
Lu Su also led a large army and came to the vicinity of Taishou Mansion.
Lu Su rode his horse and ran in front of Zhao Feng and waved at Zhao Feng: "I've seen the lord!" ”
"Troops have been sent to take over the West Gate of the Plains!"
Zhao Feng nodded, roughly explained the previous events, and then asked: "Zijing thinks that the plain is too guarded, is it a real surrender, or a fraudulent surrender?" ”
Lu Su pondered for a moment: "According to Su's inspection after entering the city, the division of troops between the city gates and the city. ”
"Even if the Plains Taishou surrenders, it doesn't make much sense."
"What's more, the north gate of the plain was also broken by General Xu, and the plain is too guarded, even if there is still a different heart, there is no other action."
Lu Su's meaning is obvious, that is, to make Zhao Feng admit that Pingyuan Taishou has surrendered.
Zhao Feng was puzzled: "Judging from the practice of the Plains Taishou, what is the use of keeping him?" ”
Lu Su smiled: "It's useless for this person to stay. ”
"But with this person, we can declare to the outside world that the Plains Taishou surrendered to us, not that we broke through the Plains!"
Zhao Feng understood as soon as he heard it.
Lu Su's meaning is to let outsiders know that the plain is too guarded, and it is also a choice to surrender.
Because in this way, it will be beneficial to take other counties in the future, especially Gaotang County.
It can greatly reduce Zhao Feng's troop losses.
You must know that for this strong attack, Zhao Feng lost more than 10,000 people.
There was already a shortage of troops, and now there are even fewer troops.
It's just that the plain is too guarded, and there is a calculating Zhao Feng in it, so Zhao Feng is a little disliked.
He pondered for a while: "The negotiation will be handed over to Zijing to be responsible." ”
"I'm afraid that I will get angry when I see the plain Taishou, and I can't help but behead him!"
Lu Su waved at Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”
After speaking, he rode his horse in the direction of Xu Huang's tribe.
Zhao Feng's approach to the plain is indeed angry.
Because he said that he wanted to surrender, and he came to withdraw his troops from the west, east, and south gates.
But he secretly sent additional troops to the north gate for reinforcements.
Although the original intention of the Plains Taishou was just to temporarily keep the North City Gate to better negotiate with Zhao Feng about surrendering.
But because of this move, Xu Huang's department will definitely die more than a thousand people.
Of course, it may also be that the North City Gate is about to be lost, and the Plains Taishou deliberately said that he surrendered.
Anyway, as long as he keeps the plain and then negotiates the surrender, he can also talk nonsense.
As long as the final negotiation is not reached, it will be over, and in the end, the plain is too guarded, and you can also buy some more time.
That's exactly what happened.
That's why Zhao Feng asked Lu Su whether he was really preparing to surrender or just surrendering to delay time.
It's just that Lu Su's meaning is also very clear, that is, no matter whether the plain is too defended, whether it is a real surrender or a fraudulent surrender, it will be counted as surrender!
