Wang Chang looked at Wang Feng in disbelief and asked, "Dong Cheng, you are not really going to surrender to the Mang army, are you?"
Wang Feng trembled, glanced at Wang Chang, then looked at the boundless army outside the city, and whispered: "If we fight again, we are asking for death. If we want to survive,... the only way to go is to surrender.
!”
Wang Chang even suspected that he was hallucinating. Wang Feng actually wanted to surrender to the Mang Army?! Wang Kuang, Wang Feng was the first to rise up and take up the banner of the Green Forest Army. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the Green Forest Army.
Founder.
The founder of the Green Forest Army, whose banner was to fight against Mang, actually wanted to surrender to the Mang army. At this moment, Wang Chang's heart was no longer angry, but felt sad.
He couldn't understand why the old brothers who once dared to rebel with their heads and dared to confront the imperial court with real swords and guns would become like this today?!
It's very simple. Wang Kuang, Wang Feng and others dared to rebel because they really couldn't survive. If they didn't rebel, there would be no way to survive.
And now, they are in such a situation again. If they continue to resist, it will be a dead end. The only way to survive is to surrender.
In fact, Wang Feng has not changed, it's just that Wang Chang doesn't understand him well enough.
Wang Feng seemed to have made up his mind and turned his head and said: "Bring me pen and ink and white cloth!"
After hearing his words, soldiers immediately ran out of the city gate tower to get pens, ink and white cloth.
After a short time, the soldiers took the pen, ink and white cloth and carefully placed them in front of Wang Feng. The latter unfolded the white cloth, pondered for a moment, picked up the pen, and gestured to write a letter of descent on the white cloth.
Wang Chang took a step forward, grabbed Wang Feng's wrist, and said urgently: "Mr. Cheng Guo! Wang Feng! Do you know what you are doing now?"
Wang Feng raised his head feebly, his eyes dull and lifeless. He looked straight at Wang Chang and asked: "Yan Qing, do you have any good strategy for retreating from the enemy?"
Wang Chang said in a deep voice: "Although Kunyang is a small city, its defenses are strong and easy to defend and difficult to attack. Our army can hold on to the city and wait for Uncle Wen to come for reinforcements, or for Nanyang to come for reinforcements. The war has just begun, so we are desperate."
The situation?"
Before Wang Feng could speak, Li Yi sneered and said: "Kunyang is only a small place, how can it withstand the strong attack of more than 100,000 Mang troops? I'm afraid I can't even wait for Liu Xiu. Nanyang comes to rescue, and the Mang army only has one
After a round of strong attacks, our army's city defense was broken! Furthermore, does General Wang really think that Liu Xiu and Nanyang can send troops to help? Liu Xiu has already suffered a defeat, and now his life or death is uncertain, while Nanyang's troops are all in Wancheng.
Who will help me in Kunyang? Now Kunyang has become an isolated city and a dead place. If we hold on to the city, we will harm the entire city's soldiers and civilians, and they will die without a place to bury them!"
Li Yi's words made Wang Chang so angry that he trembled all over. Wang Feng took it seriously and felt it was very reasonable.
He nodded and said to Wang Chang: "Yan Qing, Ji Wen is right. Our army has no chance of winning this battle, and there is no way out. The only way to save our lives is to surrender. I regret that I listened to Wen in the first place.
Uncle Zhiyan, stay in Kunyang..."
At this point, Wang Feng shook his head and sighed, and then picked up the pen again to write a letter of surrender. Wang Chang was very anxious and said in a loud voice: "Wang Feng!"
This time, Wang Feng ignored Wang Chang and looked to both sides. Li Yi and a general walked up to Wang Chang, took his arm and dragged him aside.
Li Yi said angrily: "General Wang is not afraid of death. You can go out of the city alone and fight for the Mang army, but you can't cause all the brothers to die with you just because General Wang is alone!"
When many generals heard what Li Yi said, they nodded repeatedly, indicating that he was right.
Wang Chang looked around at everyone present, feeling as if his heart was filled with despair.
Now he regrets it. He regrets that he stayed in Kunyang to assist Wang Feng. If he had known this, he should have gone to Dingling and Yancheng with Uncle Wen to recruit troops. Even if he died in battle, he would be more useless than he is now.
A hundred times better alive.
Without Wang Chang's obstruction, Wang Feng successfully finished writing a letter of surrender. This letter of surrender was written directly to Wang Yi.
In the letter of surrender, Wang Feng first admitted his mistakes. He should not have rebelled, he should not have fought against the imperial court, and he should not have supported Liu Xuan in proclaiming himself emperor. Then he also stated that he had realized his mistakes and implored the emperor and the imperial court to
He asked for forgiveness, and finally he mentioned in a roundabout way that if Wang Yi was willing to spare his life and the lives of his soldiers, he was willing to sacrifice Kunyang and lead all the soldiers in the city to surrender to Wang Yi.
After writing this letter of surrender, Wang Feng read it from beginning to end twice and felt quite satisfied. It was both emotional and rational. It must be able to impress Wang Yi.
Afterwards, he sent a civil servant under his command, who was an envoy of the Han army, to go out of the city to see Wang Yi with this letter of surrender.
At this time, the Mang army was camping outside the city of Kunyang. When they heard that the envoy from Kunyang asked for an audience, Wang Yi disapproved and ordered the envoy to be brought to him.
After the envoy saw Wang Yi, he knelt down and saluted first. Then he explained his purpose of coming and handed Wang Feng a letter of surrender written by Wang Feng himself.
Wang Yi took the letter of surrender and looked at it briefly. Then he threw the letter aside and laughed.
The envoy looked at Wang Yi blankly, not knowing what he was laughing at. After a while, Wang Yi stopped smiling, and his face was replaced by a cold look. He said in a deep voice: "Come here! Drag this thief out.
Behead him in public display!”
When the envoy heard this, he was frightened and frightened, and said urgently: "General Wang, the two armies are fighting, why don't you kill the envoy! What's more, my general has agreed to surrender the city..."
"Haha!" Wang Yi raised the corner of his mouth, sneered twice, and said proudly: "My millions of powerful troops, with energy that penetrates the rainbow, destroys everything they go through, and the wind and the horses, who can do it? Kunyang is a small place.
If the general wants it, why should I use you to sacrifice it?! You rebels and thieves are so shameless that you dare to surrender, so you are ashamed of me?"
Wang Yi stood up and walked down from the carriage step by step. An attendant hurriedly came forward and knelt down beside the carriage. Wang Yi stepped on the attendant's back, stepped off the carriage, came to the envoy, stood with his hands behind his hands, and stared.
He said in a loud voice: "Hang the head of this thief on the camp gate so that all the rebels in the city can see it clearly. If you raise an army to rebel and fight against the imperial court, this is the only outcome!"
The envoy was so frightened that he trembled into a ball and begged with tears in his eyes: "General Wang, spare your life, General Wang, please spare your life..."
Two guards came forward, picked up the messenger's arms, and dragged him out without any explanation. Then they pushed him to the ground. Another guard drew out his sword, pointed it at the messenger's neck, and slashed him with his sword.
The envoy's pleading stopped suddenly, and the severed skull rolled away a long way away. When the surrounding soldiers saw this, they all raised their arms and shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Wang Feng wrote a letter of surrender and sent an envoy to surrender to the Mang army. However, his letter of surrender was thrown away by Wang Yi, and the envoy was killed by Wang Yi. Wang Yi simply did not accept Wang Feng's surrender.
.
In Wang Yi's eyes, the rebels in Kunyang City are already in the urn. Kunyang is already in his pocket. It only takes a few minutes to kill these rebels. What qualifications do the rebels have to surrender to him?
?
Are they worthy of being surrendered?
After Wang Feng sent the envoy, he stood in the city gate tower and looked out of the city. However, after his envoy entered the Mang camp, it was like a stone sinking into the sea. There was no movement in the Mang camp, and there was no sign of any intention to accept surrender.
I don’t know how long it took, but a Han army spy hurried back from outside the city. After entering the city, he quickly climbed up the city wall. When he saw Wang Feng, he knelt down on one knee and said urgently: "General,
The villain...the villain saw that the head of our envoy has been hung outside the gate of Mang Camp!"
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned and stunned.
The envoy sent by our side was killed by the Mang army? The Mang army... did not accept our surrender! Everyone at the scene, except Wang Chang, was dumbfounded. Everyone had their mouths open, dumbfounded.
Seeing everyone looking dumbfounded and unable to react, Wang Chang suddenly raised his head and smiled.
If he could see Wang Yi now, he would definitely thank him in person. Wang Yi's assassination envoy refused to surrender. For him, it was too much to relieve his anger and hatred!
Wang Feng finally came to his senses and asked with a flustered expression: "Wang Yi refuses to accept our surrender. What...what should we do?"
Li Yi, who usually had the most cunning ideas, had no ideas now. He also did not expect that Wang Yi could be so ruthless and ruthless. Even if he was willing to surrender, he would not accept it. People lowered their heads one after another and remained silent.
Wang Chang said loudly: "Wang Feng, can't you see now? Surrendering is a dead end! Right now, our soldiers have no way out but to fight to the death!"
Wang Feng looked at Wang Chang blankly and didn't say a word for a long time.
On the other side, Liu Xiu led his defeated men and retreated to Dingling.
Liu Xiu is still unclear about the situation in Kunyang. If he knew that Wang Feng had written a letter of surrender to Wang Yi and handed over the obedience form, asking for the city to surrender, Liu Xiulian would probably have the intention to kill Wang Feng.
The chief general of the Han army stationed at Dingling was Yin Zun. Yin Zun led Liu Xiu and others into the barracks in the city. When he saw many soldiers with bloodstains on their bodies, Yin Zun was secretly speechless and asked: "Liu Xiu
General, what are you doing?"
Liu Xiu sighed lightly and said: "My troops fought a battle with the Mang army outside Kunyang. The battle was originally going smoothly, but suddenly they encountered a beast with a huge trend. As a result..." At this point, he said helplessly
Shaked his head.
Yin Zun was stunned for a while. After a moment, he was surprised and said: "Are the rumors true? Can the giant giant really drive wild beasts?"
Liu Xiu nodded. Juwuba did have the ability to drive wild beasts into battle, but he was not as powerful as the legend said.
The wild beasts driven by the giant can't tell the difference between the enemy and ourselves at all. When they arrive on the battlefield, they bite everyone they see. Although our own side suffered heavy casualties this time, there were also many casualties on the Rang army's side due to the fangs and sharp edges of the beasts.
Under the claws.
Yin Zun held his forehead and said quietly: "Hundreds of thousands of reckless troops are approaching fiercely. It is difficult for our army to compete with them. Now that the reckless troops are supported by wild animals, they are even more powerful. Is it true that God will defeat our Han army?"
"
Liu Xiu didn't answer. After sitting for a moment, he stood up and walked out of the camp. Yin Zun asked hurriedly: "Where are General Liu going?"
"I'm going to see the injured soldiers!" Liu Xiu was also injured, but he had been simply bandaged. He walked out of the camp and went outside. In the camp, wounded soldiers of his own could be seen everywhere.
People took off their clothes, and the wounds on their bodies scratched by the claws of beasts were shocking. The wounds were deep enough to reach the bones, and the skin and flesh were turned out. Just looking at them made people feel numb on the scalp.
Yin Zun, who was following Liu Xiu, kept grinning, the hairs all over his body stood up, and he couldn't help but rub his palms on his body.
"General Yin, are there any medicinal materials in the camp?"
"Yes, yes, yes! I'll ask someone to get it right now!" Yin Zun nodded repeatedly, waved his hand to summon a soldier, and told him to go find a medical officer quickly. Invite as many doctors as there are in the city.
Liu Xiu walked up to a soldier who had an injured calf. This soldier had a piece of flesh on his calf bitten off, and the cloth strips wrapping his calf were soaked with blood.
After looking at his injuries, Liu Xiu tore off a piece of cloth from his body, tightly wrapped the soldier's thigh, and then shouted to a medical officer not far away: "We need first aid here!"
