Wang Can had a solemn expression on his face and said: "If I remember correctly, after you were provoked by Guan Ying today, you finally couldn't help it anymore and went down the mountain to fight with Guan Ying. Not only did you lose in the fight with Guan Ying, you also suffered
Seriously injured. After you went to war, because of your failure, the soldiers under your command were also forced to join the battle, and ultimately suffered heavy losses."
Yingbu sneered: "This is not a secret!",
This matter is already known to everyone.
Everyone knows it.
Wang Can's expression was calm, without any panic, and he said unhurriedly: "If my prediction is correct, in addition to the soldiers who died in the battle and the soldiers who returned to the mountain, at least a thousand people under your command must have been captured by Guan Ying.
Is it right?"
"yes!"
Yingbu nodded.
During the daytime battle, only more than a thousand soldiers under his command returned to the mountain. Many soldiers died in the battle, but even more were captured. In Yingbu's opinion, the number of captured soldiers was probably at least 1,500.
About a hundred people.
A flash of light flashed in Wang Can's eyes and he said: "If I were Guan Ying, I would take all the prisoners into custody tonight and sort them out. Then early tomorrow morning, I would have people escort these prisoners to call for battle."
"When calling the formation, I will use prisoners as a threat."
"If you Yingbu are not willing to come down and surrender, I will kill the prisoners."
"If you don't surrender for a quarter of an hour, five people will be killed."
"If you don't surrender within two quarters of an hour, ten people will be killed."
"If you don't surrender within an hour, fifty people will be killed."
"In short, keep killing people."
Wang Can's eyes were full of coldness and sternness, and he said: "Under such a threat, Yingbu, how are you going to deal with it?"
Yingbu looked embarrassed and was about to speak.
But when he was about to speak, Wang Can directly interrupted Yingbu and continued: "If you ignore the prisoners at the foot of the mountain, regardless of their life or death, what will the only remaining soldiers on the mountain think?"
"The people they are loyal to are cold and heartless people."
"I don't care whether they live or die."
"Under such circumstances, the morale of the army on the mountain will collapse immediately. You have soldiers to protect you and soldiers to fight for you. You are the powerful Yingbo. If there are no soldiers, you will be alone.
It’s completely worthless.”
Wang Can said: "Of course, you can choose to go down the mountain and fight. But with your current military strength, let alone counterattack, even self-protection is no longer possible. How can we talk about counterattack?"
"As for surrender, that is also an option."
"It's just that I believe you won't surrender. With the hatred between you and Liu Bang, you want to kill Liu Bang. Why are you still willing to work for Liu Bang?"
Wang Can said: "Yingbu, am I right?"
The corners of Yingbu's mouth twitched slightly.
At this moment, Yingbu was like a naked woman, standing naked in front of Wang Can, her whole body was exposed by Wang Can, and there was no longer any secret.
Under such circumstances, Yingbu was very embarrassed.
Yingbu said sarcastically: "Wang Can, you are right, but I don't have to submit to you?"
Wang Can said: "Today's world is divided into pieces, with countless princes competing for the throne. In the north are Temujin, Kangxi, and even Ying Zheng and others, in the east are Zhao Gou, and in the Central Plains are Li Shimin. There are constant disputes in various places."
"There are many people you can surrender to."
"It's just that if you surrender to these people, they can't give you any help. Because under the current circumstances, these people don't have the conditions to attack Liu Bang. Only I have this condition."
"First, the Kingdom of Shu borders the Han Dynasty."
"If the Shu Kingdom wants to attack the Han Dynasty and conquer Liu Bang, it has a natural advantage. On the contrary, it is not an easy task for other countries, even if Li Tang wants to conquer Liu Bang."
Wang Can continued: "Secondly, when I attacked Liangzhou, Liu Bang sent people to intervene. I have never forgotten this in my heart. You and Liu Bang have hatred, and so do I. We have a common enemy.
.When you come to Shu Kingdom, on the one hand, you can show your talents; on the other hand, you can also take revenge."
At this moment, Yingbu was already a little moved by Wang Can's words.
In fact, everything Wang Can said was so close to his heart that he didn't even have the courage to argue.
Zhong Jin was also on the side. He looked at the hesitant Yingbu, but did not speak to persuade or make any suggestions. Because in the current situation, the situation was extremely difficult, and he did not know how to reverse the situation.
It is a good choice to surrender to Wang Can.
At least, I can rely on Wang Can.
Yingbu had no decision in his heart. He turned his eyes and fell on Zhong Jin, asking: "Mr. Zhong, what do you think about surrendering to Shu?"
He wanted to hear Zhong Jin's advice.
After all, Zhong Jin is his counselor and he is very knowledgeable.
Zhong Jin was stunned for a moment when he was asked. He didn't expect that Yingbu would ask him about such a big matter. He quickly came to his senses and said: "Your Highness, you can make the decision on this matter. I don't know what to do even if I am in a humble position."
Yingbu knew that Zhong Jin was unwilling to answer, so he said again: "Sir, if you have any ideas, just say so. Sir, I want to hear your suggestions, please teach me."
"well……"
Zhong Jin sighed.
He was unwilling to intervene, because it was really not his place to make the decision when it came to such matters. However, Yingbu decided to ask, and Zhong Jin could only say: "Your Highness, under the current circumstances, surrendering to Shu is the best choice.
"
When Yingbu heard this, the last straw in his heart was crushed.
He no longer had any reason to persist.
Even Zhong Jin suggested surrendering, but he couldn't find any reason to persist.
Yingbu said: "Okay, I agree to submit to you, but I am now the King of Huainan. After I submit to you, I must also be a king, and there cannot be any changes."
"impossible!"
Wang Can flatly refused and said: "There cannot be a king with a different surname in the Kingdom of Shu. There was not before and there will not be now."
Ying Bu's expression suddenly changed.
Unexpectedly, his condition was directly rejected.
Wang Can observed the words and expressions, and saw that Yingbu's face was not good-looking, so he continued: "Yingbu, I don't give you the title of king, not because I don't value you, nor to suppress you, but to protect you."
"Let me give you a simple example. You are not a royal family member of the Shu Kingdom, but you are a prince. Don't you think you can't bear this status?"
"When you were under Liu Bang, you were the king of Huainan and had the status of a king. But if you think about it carefully, who are the kings who were canonized by Liu Bang, especially the kings with different surnames, who are left in the end?"
"All kings with different surnames will disappear."
"You surrender to me. If I temporarily allow you to surrender in order to appease you, I should agree to your conditions. However, I refused directly because I was unwilling to lie to you, and I was unwilling to do everything possible to deal with you after you surrendered.
.”
Wang Can said: "Do you understand?"
Ying sermon: "I understand."
He thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
Liu Bang once ennobled many kings with different surnames, including Han Xin, who was also a prince at first. But in the end, except for the princes of the clan, no other kings with different surnames were left in the Han Dynasty. They were either demoted or lost their heads.
Zhong Jin listened to Wang Can's words and sighed that Wang Can was really awesome.
After some words and beatings, Yingbu was convinced. Especially when Wang Can told Guan Ying's plan to deal with Yingbu, he had already frightened Yingbu and took the initiative.
Yingbu had no initiative in front of Wang Can.
Zhong Jin didn't say much.
Yingbu surrendered to Wang Can, and he could breathe a sigh of relief.
Wang Can continued: "Yingbu, you have surrendered to me and become a member of the Shu Kingdom. I will not treat you badly and also grant you the position of general. Like Han Xin, you are the general of the Shu Kingdom."
"I accept your order!"
Yingbu no longer hesitated and agreed directly.
He wanted to stand up and salute, but as soon as his body moved, the wound was immediately affected, causing Yingbu to grimace in pain. The injuries on his body were still painful to the bone, making him miserable.
Wang Can was relieved when he heard Yingbu's answer.
With Yingbu here, it will be much easier to open up the situation in Sanshui County, Guanghan County.
Yingbu took the initiative and said: "Your Majesty just said that Guan Ying might use hostage threats. In this case, what should we do to avoid being threatened by Guan Ying?"
Wang Can smiled and said: "This matter is not difficult."
Ying sermon: "How to do it?"
Wang Can said: "In the current situation, we must get rid of Guan Ying. Therefore, my consideration is that the only remaining soldiers under your command should withdraw from Wuzhi Peak immediately, leaving an empty Wuzhi Peak. In this way, Guan Ying cannot be found.
If I get to you, I will have no chance to attack you."
Ying preached: "What should we do if we withdraw from Wuzhi Peak? Your Majesty, I was seriously injured by Guan Ying this time. If I don't take revenge, I swear that I will not be a human being. I don't want to leave Sanshui County. I must completely defeat Guan Ying."
Leave willingly."
Wang Can laughed and said: "I will not leave Sanshui County."
Ying sermon: "How to fight back?"
Wang Can said: "It is not difficult to counterattack Guan Ying. Soon after it got dark tonight, I and General Han raided the arsenal and grain depot in Sanshui County and seized part of the food and ordnance.
"
"This news should reach Guan Ying's ears soon."
"Guan Ying would be surprised that the arsenal and grain depot were attacked, but there were no major problems in these two places. Therefore, it is impossible for Guan Ying to withdraw to Sanshui County overnight tonight, because he will have to wait until tomorrow morning to capture it in one go.
you."
"But we went down the mountain overnight and left. Guan Ying missed a beat and retreated to Sanshui County. Our next purpose is to carry out an ambush strategy. When Guan Ying can't find any trace of you, we retreat to Sanshui County.
, we ambush Guan Ying halfway."
"In this way, we will definitely win."
Wang Can said: "This is my strategy, one link after another, to make Guan Ying fall into a big fall. If the fight goes well on the battlefield, maybe there is still a chance to capture Guan Ying."
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
When Yingbu heard this, he also smiled.
This is a very good plan!
If the plan goes well and Guan Ying can be captured in one go and he can take revenge, that would be the best thing.
Yingbu was full of expectations.
This time, he must take revenge. (To be continued)
