Chapter 324 Persuading Surrender

Although Zhang Ji has a great reputation in the world, he does not have unique characteristics like the Six-fingered Black Man or Donghuang Taiyi. People who have never met him will naturally not recognize him.

After hearing Zhang Ji's self-identification, the Wei army generals in the hall naturally had certain thoughts.

Some people wanted to kill him to vent their anger, some wanted to do what Cao GUI did to force the Qin army to give up Hedong, and some wanted to take advantage of Zhang Ji's favor and secretly help Zhang Ji escape.

"You are so bold, step back!"

Jin Yao's loud shouts resounded in the hall, shouting away all the generals with different thoughts.

All the soldiers recognized that Jin Yao's defeat was not a crime of war, but Jin Yao has not yet been dismissed and imprisoned. He is still the leader of the vanguard army on the left, and his young master.

But the reason why he dismissed the generals was not because Jin Yao was so generous, but because he knew that, let alone killing Zhang Ji here, it would have been better if Zhang Ji had not killed them all.

The woman behind Zhang Ji is, not surprisingly, the master-level female killer Jing Salamander among Luo Wang's Tianzi First-Class Killers. The pink long sword is her iconic feature.

The two grandmasters are still in this small hall. If they want to start killing, they will all die here within ten breaths.

That is to say, Zhang Ji was born in the Mohist family. Although he became the leader of Luo Wen, he would not do anything like Luo Wen in the past. Not only did he abide by the rules that Luo Wen had always disdained, but he also restrained Luo Wen's killers.

Jin Yao admired Zhang Ji, the new Luo Wang leader who had suppressed Luo Wang's many cruel methods and trained such a tough young man, but he did not want to see Zhang Ji at the moment.

He knew very well the purpose of Zhang Ji's visit as the envoy of Qin, with his dignity as a guard.

"I wonder what General Jinyao plans to do next?"

Zhang Ji also saw from Jin Yao's eyes that this was not a pure martial artist. He saw the purpose of his visit today, so he got straight to the point.

"Set up camp and repair, wait for help." Jin Yao's voice was sonorous and powerful, "If something goes wrong, we can only fight to the death!"

"hehe."

Zhang Ji's laughter contained a bit of contempt and disdain.

He roughly guessed what Jin Yao was thinking. Before he entered Zhongniu Township, Luowang's spies and the cavalrymen in the scout camp had found out that Wei soldiers were cutting down trees and digging tunnels everywhere.

Indeed, Jin Yao still had the idea of ​​​​defending and planned to stick to Zhongniu Township and use the horses and corridors to resist his Yulin Cavalry.

Although the Yulin Cavalry is unstoppable, they are still cavalry. If there are really a large number of horses and tunnels, and with the help of the houses in the village, they can indeed stop the Yulin Cavalry's offensive.

However, the Wei army, which had rested all night and all morning to regain some morale and physical strength, did not start cutting down trees and digging tunnels until noon. The number was far from enough to hold on to Zhongniu Township.

"My army is already waiting outside Zhongniu Township. It only needs an order to enter Zhongniu Township."

"Of course, the general can also launch an attack first, and there is no hope of breaking through."

At this time, a scout walked into the hall and reported to Jin Yao the military information that the scouts had just discovered.

Jin Yao's pupils shrank, and the expressions of the generals also changed drastically. Zhang Ji did not lie to them.

Not only were the three thousand Yu Lin cavalry assembled from three directions, ready to launch an attack at any time, but this time, there were also eight thousand Qin army infantry coming together.

When he heard the eight thousand infantry, Jin Yao suddenly became enlightened.

As the only son of Jin Bi, he has been with the army since childhood, so he is naturally not a mediocre person, otherwise Jin Bi's old troops would not support him no matter how nostalgic he was.

He finally understood why Zhang Er and Chen Yu's right-wing vanguard army attacked Bancheng and Wucheng, both of which were empty.

Because all the defenders in the city were concentrated in Yanshi City, the combined strength of the three cities was at least 5,000.

There are three thousand people left, presumably the young men of Yanshi City.

But even though these three thousand people were young and strong, Jin Yao did not dare to look down upon them.

Yanshi City was a city of the Qin State hundreds of years ago. Although it was once captured by the Wei State, since Shang Yang's Reform, Yanshi City has been in the hands of the Qin State, so it naturally considers itself a Qin people.

Under Qin's law, almost all the people of Qin were soldiers. As long as these young men had weapons, they were soldiers.

Surrounded by eight thousand infantry and three thousand Yulin cavalry, they were already unable to fly.

As long as the Wei army dares to break through, Yu Linqi will annihilate the Wei army here.

No, even if we directly attack Zhongniu Township, it will not be very difficult to annihilate the current disorganized Wei army.

The Yulin Cavalry did not attack by force, they just wanted to avoid some casualties.

"Of course, General Jinyao can also continue to stand firm and wait for reinforcements. Perhaps he can also wait for reinforcements from Lord Xinling or the coalition forces."

Zhang Ji smiled and seemed to be thinking of ways to fight the Qin army for Jin Yao. In fact, he put all the methods in front of Jin Yao, and then rejected the possibility of realizing each method one by one, crushing it bit by bit.

Jin Yao's luck mentality.

Jing Salamander's beautiful eyes glanced at Zhang Ji, who still had a smile on his face, and couldn't help but smile a little.

He really not only killed his person, but also tortured his heart.

"But, I don't know if Wei Wuji would give up Anyi, the old capital of the Wei State, for the sake of the eight thousand defeated soldiers who have lost their courage, especially the political enemies with whom he has sworn sworn hatred."

"If we wait for the coalition forces to come to rescue us, from notifying each other through letters to negotiating and then pushing each other to send troops, I guess it is absolutely impossible without half a month. General Jin Yao should know this in his heart."

"In the past half month, even if my army does not attack, how many days can the Wei army's food and grass last?"

In the previous battle, when Zhang Ji recorded the merits of the military meritorious service, he upgraded the merits of Su Jiao and his scout battalion to the same level as Li Xin and Qiang Yu's heavy-armored assault cavalry. This was because Su Jiao completely burned the Wei army's

All baggage.

The camp tent is just an insignificant piece of baggage, and the Wei army's food is the most important baggage.

And these baggage were burned by Su Jiao, otherwise the Wei army would not have robbed the people's houses to use as camps, and the military supplies would have been looted from everywhere.

But how much food can be produced in several villages in a township?

And every time there is a war, people will hide their food.

The people who have survived in this troubled world for a long time cannot be underestimated in their ability to hide food. Even if they are searched with a net, they may not be able to find it all.

The Wei army's military rations can last for up to five days.

As for the support of the coalition forces, as Zhang Ji said, it is impossible to send troops until the fifteenth day. When they really come to help, they will either starve to death or die in battle.

As for Wei Wuji... haha, he might as well believe that the coalition forces under the command of Pang Nuan would give up their own interests and march quickly to help.

The cold northwest wind blew into the hall, and the white grates hanging on the banners fluttered with the strong wind, just like the Qin army with an excited military spirit, ready to annihilate the remaining eight thousand Wei troops in a single battle.

"Don't be pessimistic. After all, all generals and commanders have their own personal guards at home. Maybe they can escape."

"However, the Wei army lost this battle. Even if King Yu of Wei wanted to protect General Jin Yao, he would have to introduce a few scapegoats. Why don't you all discuss who will bear the responsibility for the defeat, while others will take care of his family and children for him? ?”

As Zhang Ji finished speaking, the entire tent fell into a dead silence.

No matter whether they break out or hold on, they have no hope at all.

Even if you are lucky enough to escape, you will inevitably be convicted after returning to your country.

Wei Wuji was eager to get rid of these old Jin tribes, and he would definitely deal with them with deadly force.

Zhang Ji said that Jin Yao might be protected by the King of Wei and only selected a few people to bear the responsibility for the defeat. This was definitely an underestimation of Wei Wuji's methods.

If they return home, basically few of them will be alive. Even if they are alive, it is more likely that they will be worse than dead.

"Do you choose to die in battle, starve to death, or die in a temple fight?"

Zhang Ji looked around the generals of the Wei army. At this moment, even the die-hards who had previously killed him to vent their anger and execute Cao Cao lowered their heads under his glance, and no longer had the previous anger and murderous intent.

"Your Excellency, you came today just to mock us, right?"

Asked an old member of Jin Bi who was caught in a trap in advance to instigate rebellion.

He knew that actually he was not the only one who wanted to ask this question at this moment. These people were just being reserved and unwilling to speak out because they couldn't let go of their own dignity.

"You will die if you break out of the siege, you will die if you stand firm, you will die if you return home, and you will die just to wait for death. Is it okay to die to repay a favor?"

"What do you mean by this?"

Jin Yao asked.

Zhang Ji smiled softly and said loudly: "The Qin State will give you a chance to die in revenge for General Jin Bi!"
