Chapter 637: You're Besieged

Zong Xin waved his hand, and several ironclad cavalry carried over something very much like a funnel, and Zong Xin held this funnel with both hands, and then made a small mouth towards himself, and a large mouth towards Xuzhou City.

"Listen to the people inside, you have been surrounded, immediately disarm and surrender, the poor monk in the spirit of heaven has the virtue of a good life, if anyone is willing to surrender, the poor monk guarantees the humane treatment and life safety of the captives with his personality. If you are obsessed, don't blame the poor monk for being ruthless. Zong Xin took a deep breath and continued: "Liu Chong of the Northern Han Dynasty has been defeated, and the poor monk has let the Northern Han Dynasty and the Khitan 80,000 allied army go to see the Buddha first, if any of you want to see his old man, you can continue to resist, the purpose of the poor monk is to make the world more people can see the Buddha, and the recalcitrant people will definitely be able to go to the west to ask for peace when the poor monk sees him." ”

Dugu Xingye touched him a little beside Zong Xin to remind him, don't talk nonsense at this time, you should talk about something serious. And Zongxin's megaphone sound is very strange, although the people around him don't listen to this sound too loudly, but if you stand in front, your ears will be deaf.

Zong Xin nodded and said, "By the way, my eldest brother told me that His Majesty Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty wants to negotiate conditions with the poor monk, right?

Li Jing had already poked his head out to look at Zong Xin, in fact, Zong Xin had also seen him, and he just wanted to tease him.

Li Jing said loudly: "Master Zongxin hasn't seen him for two years?"

Zong Xin took the megaphone and shouted: "Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, the poor monk has been pretty good recently, and with a little trick, he wiped out all the 80,000 allied troops of the Khitan and the Northern Han Dynasty. ”

"Master Zongxin, can you let my Tang Army leave first, and the widow will definitely thank you. ”

"Your Majesty, isn't this embarrassing for me?" Zong Xin said: "But Your Majesty has already spoken, and the poor monk must give this face." The conditions of the poor monks were very simple, everyone threw their weapons from the city wall, and those who did not have weapons in their hands promised not to be attacked in any way after leaving Xuzhou. This is the only condition offered by the poor monk, and Your Majesty please forgive me. ”

As soon as Zong Xin said this, Li Jing's heart was cold. The soldier said treacherously, it is not certain whether Zong Xin will speak or not, if he really throws away the weapon, and then leaves Xuzhou. In case Zongxin breaks his promise, at that time it will really be called heaven and earth. Don't look at such a large force, if you don't have a knife in your hand, the enemy can only raise your hands and surrender when they rush over.

Li Jing won't be caught like this, but he can't stay in Xuzhou City all the time. Zongxin's methods are extremely cruel, and if he continues to stay in Xuzhou, he will definitely be dead.

What should I do? What now? Someone else has given a condition that is almost impossible to meet, and it is impossible to throw away the weapon if you are too confused. Li Jing thought about it, staying here is death, and escaping from the city is also death, anyway, it is a dead end, it is better to listen to Zong Xin's words, throw away the weapon and leave Xuzhou.

Li Jing nodded, now there is only this way, at least he can only think of this way. Anyway, it is useless for Zong Xin to kill himself, it will only make the world more chaotic. Even if you go out of the city with a weapon, you will be ambushed, if you don't take a weapon, you will be a prisoner at most, although the Great Zhou army has a lot of people, it is impossible for them to control more than 20,000 prisoners, if he still wants to attack Xuzhou, he should let himself go.

Li Jing knew that Zong Xin's goal had always been Murong Yanchao, because Murong Yanchao had killed Guo Tong and Le An, Guo Wei hated him to the core, and Zong Xin's relationship with these two people was not shallow, so he had been operating to kill Murong Yanchao, and even went to the Khitan to help Yelu Jing quell the civil strife for this purpose.

Li Jing gritted his teeth and said: "General Huangfu, let all the soldiers throw their weapons off the city wall, and then leave Xuzhou from the east gate to see Zongxin's reaction." If Zongxin really fights, it will be fine, and we will surrender immediately and will not be allowed to resist. I see how he manages the food and drink of these 20,000 soldiers, and he eats and makes him poor. ”

"Your Majesty......" Huangfu Jixun felt that it was inappropriate to do this, but His Majesty did not dare to disobey him, and if he did not dare, he would be disloyal. It's just this way to play...... Your Majesty is too crazy, play with Zongxin, sooner or later he will play himself to death.

But then again, Xuzhou City is isolated in the territory of the Great Zhou. If His Majesty defends Xuzhou, he will definitely die, because it is impossible for Datang to send reinforcements, after all, this time it is an internal war in the Great Zhou, and His Majesty sent 100,000 troops to join in the fun.

His Majesty must leave, since it is when Zongxin is about to attack the city, His Majesty must return to Datang to restore his original identity. Huangfu Jixun was also very helpless, the emperor could not control his own country, but let a group of villains hold great power, they had extremely strong troops to support the army and respect themselves, and they didn't care about the suffering of the world at all. They don't care about the emperor's life or death, for these people, whoever becomes the emperor is the same, even if Li Hongji becomes the emperor, it is impossible to deal with them, at most he forbears and pretends to know nothing.

If Your Majesty can't go back, Datang will definitely make a mess. At that time, the emperor's power will be even weaker, so His Majesty must return to the Tang Dynasty safely. It is absolutely impossible to defend Xuzhou, but if you leave Xuzhou, you will be ambushed by the Great Zhou army.

Li Jing is very clear about these things, and Huangfu Jixun also knows that his wisdom is not as good as Li Jing. Since he said so, he had no choice but to do it. I want to see if Zong Xin can speak up, of course, even if he retorts, he can only admit it, after all, there is no other way now.

Murong Yanchao said, "Your Majesty, it's too risky for you to do this." If Zongxin suddenly retorted......"

"It's okay, even if he catches me, I'll be fine. Li Jing said: "I don't think Zongxin will break his promise, not to mention that I have no grudge against him, even if I and the army here are all captured by him, it will be useless to him." My Datang treasury is empty, what can he do with me? My life is not worth much, what can he do with me? I was caught by Zong Xin but it was safe, hiding in Xuzhou is called danger, if you can't even figure this out, how can you have the ability to fight with Zong Xin?"

Huangfu Jixun nodded immediately, and then went to order. Murong Yanchao actually understands this truth, but he has no way to surrender, because if he surrenders, he will die. Zong Xin will not let go of himself, and Guo Wei will not let go of himself, otherwise he would like to surrender first and see the result......

Murong Yanchao really has no choice, now that his morale has been frustrated, Li Jing wants to leave. Less than 40,000 troops remained to defend the city, and the enemy he faced was Zongxin. Zongxin has never lost a battle so far, and every time it is a miracle, fighting him is undoubtedly looking for death. Xuzhou will be broken, Murong Yanchao has no doubt about this.

Although Murong Yanchao is a little less resourceful, his head is not stupid. Zong Xin won 10,000 and 80,000, and it was a big victory, and now Zong Xin has more than 100,000 soldiers in his hands, if he plays it, he can completely dominate the world. In the face of a small Xuzhou, Zong Xin may not have paid attention to it at all.

The reason why Murong Yanchao has not turned his face is in his arms, fortunately, fortunately, Liu Chengjun, who is still a little filial, gave him Nanxiang. Waiting for the city of Xuzhou to be broken, he lit the incense and took advantage of the chaos to assassinate Zongxin. Although Zongxin is protected by two masters, they can't see themselves, and the battlefield is so messy, there must be a chance to make a move.

Of course, there are not too many difficult incense, so you have to save some of them. When he read the sect's letter, he lit the incense and extinguished it immediately after escaping. Of course, this kind of good thing should be used a few more times, in fact, as long as the other party can't see himself, no matter how strong the skill of listening and distinguishing the position is, it will definitely be greatly restricted.

Huangfu Jixun gave an order, and all the Tang troops excluded themselves from walking on the city wall, and threw down all the swords, spears, halberds, and sickles in their hands. Even the soldiers were reluctant and curious that His Majesty could have succumbed so easily, and agreed to such an unreasonable request. There is no one who is not worried, what if the Great Zhou army suddenly kills after leaving the east of the city? At that time, there is not even a knife in his hand, do you want to use your fist to hammer on someone else's armor?

I can't figure it out anyway, but the orders of the higher authorities must be carried out, otherwise the military law will deal with it. The faces of all the soldiers were very ugly, although they were not belligerent, but they were only at ease when they needed to protect themselves.

Li Jing naturally had his own thoughts, Li Jing thought that Zong Xin could have let him leave Xuzhou, but he deliberately planted an ambush and did not let go, why on earth? Li Jing figured it out, Zong Xin just wanted himself to unconditionally agree to this unreasonable demand, and let the soldiers drop all their weapons, the purpose of course was to show Murong Yanchao's subordinates, this was just a play of killing chickens and showing monkeys.

Li Jing knew that Zong Xin didn't want to face the extra 20,000 troops, so he wanted to let himself go. But you can't let yourself go so easily, otherwise you will only expose your lack of confidence in the siege. In the same way, letting himself leave, he can also let Murong Yanchao's soldiers see that as long as they drop their weapons, they can live, so how many people will drop their weapons in order to survive? Obviously, this number is by no means a minority.

Zongxin was really powerful, he expected that he would figure it out, so he would rather take the risk of leaving himself behind. Because the result of this may be that Xuzhou City has more than 20,000 troops, which is not a small amount. Although he thought that Zongxin could still win, it might add to his troubles and was unnecessary.

This is what it is like for a master to be bold, Zong Xin dares to gamble, and he is sure that he can win. No wonder his name is Zongxin, he is so confident in everything, and he can be said to be strategic, so it is not difficult for him to solve any problems.

However, what makes Li Jing a little strange is that Zong Xin has such a great ability, why doesn't he become an emperor himself? Looking at Zong Xin's appearance, although he is a monk, he does not quit drinking and not quitting meat, it doesn't matter whether this kind of person is a monk or not, except that he has no hair, his life is no different from that of ordinary people.
