Chapter 386: Why Are You Defending the City?

After a night, the men who contacted Cao Cao and Cao Ren had been sent out quickly. The letter written by Xi Zhicai for Guo Jia has also been sent across the river to Xiapi. The camp facing east and facing the water has begun to take shape. In addition, some of the craftsmen also began to build the parts of the thunderbolt according to the drawings given to them by Guo Jia.

So, at three o'clock in the afternoon of the second day.

In front of the city gate on the east side of Guangwei,

The black clouds crushed the city and wanted to destroy it, and the armor light opened to the sun.

The soldiers under the city, black and oppressive, stood in a neat formation, and in this situation, the guards on the city wall trembled their legs one by one. Guo Jia: Is this really here to talk about things? Isn't it true that they are here to directly attack the city? Do you need to bring so many people to talk about something, step by step, and move over in a mighty way?

Although Guo Jia really didn't have any appearance of attacking the city, after all, he didn't even take the cloud ladder or anything. But this can definitely be regarded as a change of direction, showing the strong military strength of Guo Jia's side! In this era, what is the war fighting? It's not a weapon, it's a lot of people!

In such an oppressive atmosphere, the people on the city wall didn't even dare to breathe.

An experienced general hurriedly ordered the soldiers to put away their bows and arrows temporarily, and if they were not careful, they would be nervous and loose. Of course, with the current distance of Guo Jia and others, it is impossible to shoot so far. But if such an act is mistaken for a provocation, it is easy for the two sides to fight in such a tense atmosphere!

Actually, it's not that Guo Jia is deliberately pretending, and it's not that Guo Jia wants to scare people, these are just incidental reasons. The real reason is that Guo Jia is afraid of death. He was a weak scholar. Don't dare to play the kind of one person and one ride, in the military formation. It's a "romantic" way to sit and drink and gossip.

Therefore, for the safety of his own life, even if Guo Jia shouted his voice today, he would let it go!

Under the city wall, Guo Jia drove a step forward, Zhao Yun protected the left and right, if someone could really try to hurt people with a secret arrow at such a distance, Zhao Yun would definitely be able to help Guo Jia stop it. As for Yu Ban and Xi Zhicai, they were appointed by Guo Jia to stay in the camp. To prevent someone from sneaking up at this time.

"I'm Guo Jia, who is your principal?" Guo Jia shouted loudly at the city wall.

Two men came out of the city wall,

One person hugged his fist and said, "The county order Zhang San." ”

The other person, "City Guard Li Si." (I'm lazy again)

"I don't know why Lord Guo specially summoned us here?" The two asked.

"I have come to persuade you to surrender." Guo Jia replied loudly.

For a while, everyone on the city wall looked at each other, Guo Jia really came for this? The reason is as simple as that? Moreover, still speak so directly? Did he really think that if he said it casually, they would surrender?

Could it be because Guo Jia led the troops to the expedition for the first time. That's why you have such naïve thoughts? You must know that there is an unspoken rule in any era, even if you surrender, you will surrender after a little resistance, and the status you will gain after being surrendered. It's often higher than a direct surrender! Even if Guo Jia hasn't come into contact with the unspoken rules in this regard, such a smart person should think of it.

In a word. The people on the city wall probably have an idea in their hearts at this time, that is, no matter what you Guo Jia wants to say later. Even if you talk about all the tongues, who surrenders on the spot. Who's stupid! Except, of course, for the minions, because they are not qualified to think about such a problem.

"I think Master Guo should not bother to speak." The county commander replied directly, looking like it was completely impossible to surrender.

"Can you hear me first?" Guo Jia said.

"I want to hear about it."

I'm going to see what you want to say and how much it can benefit us.

"First of all, let me ask you, why are you defending the city?" Guo Jia asked loudly.

The people on the city wall, whether they were officials or ordinary soldiers, were stunned, nonsense, if they didn't defend the city, would they just let you Guo Jia kill them?!

As a result, I saw Guo Jia stretch out his finger and continued,

"First, our army is not a yellow turban thief, and it is not here to burn, kill and loot. Second, our army is not a foreign race, like everyone, it is a people of the Han Dynasty, and it is not here to invade. Now your life is your own, your money is your own, and your wives are your own. And if you surrender, your life will be your own, your money will be your own, and your wives will be your own. To tell you the truth, if you don't surrender, when the city is taken down by us, all of the above will no longer be your own! So, let me ask you again, why are you defending the city?! Guo Jia shouted loudly.

At this moment, everyone was really stunned. yes, why should they defend the city? If it is invaded by foreign enemies, it is to defend the homeland and the country. Now it is the Yellow Turban thieves who are plundering, and that is also to protect the family and defend the country. And now, Guo Jia is not a foreign enemy, and he is not a bandit. If you surrender, you will have nothing, and if you don't, you may lose everything. So, why defend the city?

Originally, these people were just a reflex, thinking that if they didn't defend the city well, their families and children might be killed by Cao Jun. But now, they have discovered that this is not the case. If they defend the city, their families and children will be in danger, but if they don't defend the city, their families and children will not be in danger. If the mind is so shaken, not to mention that it can directly make people surrender, but do the soldiers of Guangwei still have any morale to speak of?

Since it is not to protect their families and defend the country, can they still fight for their lives?

"Oh, I see! The reason why you want to defend the city is because you are afraid that your position will not be secure. After all, the current status is all given to you by Tao Qian, and if we rule it, the current status may not be there. Tsk, I really don't take the lives of ordinary soldiers as human lives. Guo Jia shook his head and sighed.

"It's not like that!" The city guard hurriedly exclaimed and denied it, joking, if he didn't deny it at this time, was this going to cause a mutiny? This Guo Jia is really insidious and terrifying, a few simple words, not only made them demoralized, but even almost caused an internal mutiny. It was so terrible that the city guards didn't dare to let Guo Jia talk anymore.

But if Guo Jia is not allowed to say it now, it will definitely blacken themselves. Moreover, the top priority of the city guard now is to make up a reasonable reason, and he subconsciously denied that "it is not like this", since this is the case, what should it be? People with a little IQ should be able to imagine that what Guo Jia said is completely realistic!

As a result, before the city guard could speak, Guo Jia took the initiative to help him play a "round field".

"Well, even if it's not that way. But I still want to promise you here, what kind of status you are now, and what kind of status you will be after surrendering, you will only rise, not fall! So, I'm here to ask you all again, why are you defending the city?! Guo Jia said in a loud voice. (To be continued.) )
