"I didn't expect General Wang Jian to come!" Xiong Qi said with a sigh as he looked at Wang Jian, who was surrounded by tigers and tigers, as if he were in his own hall.
"Actually, Jian thought there was no need to come!" Wang Jian looked at Xiong Qi and said indifferently.
Xiong Qi remained silent and did not speak. He knew what Wang Jian meant. As the king of Chu State, he should have died long ago for governing Chu State like this.
"The battle has been like this, Xiang Yan, you should have died a long time ago to apologize." Wang Jian ignored Xiong Qi, turned around and taunted Xiang Yan, who was sitting on the other side with a dark expression and a dejected look, as if he was dozens of years old and full of staleness.
.
Listening to Wang Jian's words, Xiang Yan remained expressionless and didn't even move. If he loses, he loses. And as Wang Jian said, if the battle is like this, he, the general, is really to blame for his death.
This battle will be lost, not only because the Qin army went south this time, but also from the time when Dragon City was established, they did not stop it, allowing Dragon City to gain a foothold in Jiujiang, and that was the reason why the subsequent war was ruined.
If they had driven away and annihilated the rebels as soon as they moved south, there would have been no Dragon City Dragon Guard later on.
In that way, even if the Qin army moves south in a large scale, they can rely on Chu's strategic depth to defeat the Qin army.
It's a pity that no one took this rebel army seriously at the beginning. It wasn't until the establishment of Dragon City and the fall of Jiujiang Dongting that everyone reacted.
However, the Dragon Guard at that time had also become a climate, and was no longer an existence that could be manipulated by others.
Seeing that Xiang Yan had no reaction, Wang Jian also felt a little depressed. He wanted to ridicule him like a winner, but seeing Xiang Yan's distracted state, he couldn't arouse any interest at all.
"Da Qin, General Zuo, and Wang Jian, on the orders of our king and Lord Wu'an, are here to persuade you to surrender!" Wang Jian walked to the Chu army's commander's tent, turned around and faced the entire Chu army and the generals, officers, and officials of the Chu state, and announced himself
purpose of coming.
Xiong Qi lowered his head. He was the king of the Chu State, and he never expected that the Chu State would be destroyed in his hands.
Xiang Yan finally reacted at this time, raised her head and looked at Wang Jian and Wang Ben who was standing next to Wang Jian.
There was deathly silence in the entire tent, and no one spoke a word.
Wang Jian looked directly at Xiong Qi and Xiang Yan, waiting for their answers.
"We are not defeated!" Xiong Qi and Xiang Yan did not answer, but the other generals shouted unwillingly. Even though they had less than 50,000 people left and only some old, weak, sick and disabled people left, they
Not willing to give in!
They didn't lose to Qin, they lost to Longcheng and Zhao's old troops!
They are unwilling to admit such a failure!
"Very good!" Wang Jian looked at the unyielding Chu people, nodded, turned around with Wang Ben and left the Chu army's commander's tent.
"The next time the general comes again, he will accept the surrender, not persuade him to surrender!" Wang Jian walked to the door of the commander's tent, paused briefly, and said in a deep voice.
The originally noisy tent fell into silence once again.
After saying that, regardless of the reaction of Xiong Qi, Xiang Yan and others, Wang Jian took Wang Ben and others back to the Qin army camp.
On the arrow tower of the camp, Meng Tian stood on the arrow tower, waiting expectantly for the return of Wang Jian and Wang Ben.
To be honest, Meng Tian didn't know what he was expecting. He hoped that the king of Chu would surrender, so that he could avoid the final war and suffer more casualties in vain, which would also be beneficial to Qin's future rule of Chu.
It was difficult to explain, so he did not hope that the King of Chu would surrender.
Wang Jian and Wang Ben naturally saw Meng Tian waiting at the camp gate.
"Go and talk to Meng Tian!" Wang Jian whispered to Wang Ben, while he went back to the commander's tent in the Central Army to resume his duties.
"How?" Meng Tian asked hurriedly when he saw Wang Ben walking towards him.
"The people of Chu are unwilling to surrender!" Wang Ben smiled and patted Meng Tian on the shoulder, then whispered, "If you want to kill Xiong Qi, you have to act fast!"
Meng Tian naturally understood what Wang Ben meant.
In the next war, if he can be the first to lead his army to break into the Chu army, then it will be up to him to decide whether Xiong Qi lives or dies. Even if he kills Xiong Qi, he can still be blamed for the war, and
No consequences.
"Thank you, General, for reminding me!" Meng Tian nodded.
"Work hard!" Wang Ben didn't say any more, patted Meng Tian heavily on the shoulder, and then took the lead to walk towards the Chinese army's tent.
"Xiong Qi didn't commit suicide?" Li Mu was also surprised by Wang Jian's return to life.
In their view, any bloody monarch would choose to commit suicide when his country is ruined and his family is in ruins, rather than waiting for complete defeat and becoming a prisoner of another country.
"After all, he is the king of a country. Even if the country is ruined and the family is destroyed, as long as he is willing to surrender, he can still become a rich man after all!" Pang Nuan said with a sneer.
"Then let's give them a ride!" Li Mu stretched out his palm and pressed it down, signaling everyone to stop the discussion, and then made a strategic plan for the last remaining army of Chu State.
Everyone also took military orders and prepared for another battle, marking a brief comma for this battle.
"General Meng Tian!" However, just as he was leaving the commander's tent, Han Xin suddenly spoke and called out to Meng Tian.
Meng Tian looked at Han Xin with some confusion, "General Han Xin called me?"
"Yeah!" Han Xin nodded.
"Is something wrong?" Meng Tian was puzzled. He had no contact with Han Xin. He was not familiar with them. They were in different positions. They were just acquaintances. He didn't know what Han Xin wanted to do when he suddenly called him.
"Does General Mengtian think that the King of Chu will surrender?" Han Xin asked in a low voice.
Meng Tian shook his head. Based on Xiong Qi's experience of carrying Qin, even if he surrenders, the king may not be able to tolerate him.
"General, do you want to see Xiong Qi commit suicide with your own eyes?" Han Xin continued to ask.
"What can you do?" Meng Tian was surprised. In the chaotic battle, no one could predict what would happen. If Xiong Qi didn't want to die, most soldiers would really not dare to kill him.
"How did Pang Juan die?" Han Xin reminded confidently.
"Did Pang Juan die under this tree?" Meng Tian was not stupid, he made sense.
During the Battle of Maling, Pang Juan was ambushed, and Sun Bin ordered people to leave a cloth under a tree. It was written on it that Pang Juan died under this tree. When he saw the words on the cloth, Pang Juan was defeated because of his defeat. His mentality exploded, and he committed suicide under a tree.
"Xin Xin doesn't know if his guess is right, but he thinks that based on his understanding of the nobles, they will not stay in the army waiting to die, but will definitely find a way to escape back to Shouchun!" Han Xin continued, and then took out a secret letter. The letter was handed into Meng Tian's hands.
Meng Tian was stunned. The logo on the secret letter was the farmer's logo, so the secret letter was sent by the farmer.
"Are you a farmer's disciple?" Meng Tian looked at Han Xin in surprise.
Everyone knows that Han Xin is Pang Nuan's close disciple, and he should be a member of the military family. How could he be related to the peasant family?
Moreover, ordinary peasant disciples could not obtain such secret information as the whereabouts of the King of Chu.
