Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 414 Wenpin's Heart

Although Zhu Wei sent messengers to Wenpin in Xinye and Zhangxiu in Wancheng before, hoping that they could send someone to discuss the matter of surrender.

But Wenpin and Zhang Xiu only agreed verbally, but in fact they did not take any further actions. Or maybe they all proposed to Zhu Wei that they should separate Xinye and Wancheng in Nanyang County and garrison troops to protect Nanyang for Zhu Wei. mean.

In fact, they just want to be attached as vassals, rather than completely relying on Zhu Wei's subordinates.

Of course, Zhu Wei could not agree to such an attachment method, so at the beginning, he did some official discussion with Zhang Xiu and Wenpin temporarily, just to wait for the matters of Jiangling Cai Mao and Xiangyang City to be settled. , concentrate on solving them.

However, before Zhu Wei also ordered Mu Lan and Teng Yuyan to send out cavalry as scouts to monitor the military situation in Nanyang County at any time, so that Zhu Wei would not know when Cao Cao sent troops to Nanyang County.

Now that Zhu Wei has settled the affairs of Jiangling and Xiangyang City, he finally marched towards Xinye with more than 2 troops from Pang Yan's Xiongba Battalion and nearly [-] troops after the expansion of his own Zhongjun Battalion.

At this time, Wenpin in Xinye was still suppressed in Xinye City by Mu Lan and Teng Yuyan's light cavalry, but he didn't know the situation outside, so after Zhu Wei's army approached Xinye County, Wenpin suddenly discovered Zhu Wei's army The situation is under pressure.

The more than 5 troops brought by Zhu Wei from Xiangyang, together with the more than 9000 Qingqi from Mu Lan and Teng Yuyan, inevitably formed a large crowd outside the not-so-large Xinye County.

Then Zhu Wei sent Yiji to Xinye County to send another letter to Wenpin and Han Song to persuade them to surrender, hoping that Yiji could persuade them to leave the city and accept the surrender. Zhu Wei said that he valued Wenpin and Han Song very much. People who sincerely surrender will naturally give them heavy responsibilities.

Of course, according to the previous correspondence between Zhu Wei, Wenpin and Han Song, Wenpin has actually surrendered in name, and he just wanted to segregate Xinye County to garrison troops, but Zhu Wei now expresses his attitude that he does not allow this surrender.

At the same time, this so-called act of submission on the surface is really hard to be sure that it is Wenpin's true intention.

In the original history, after Liu Biao died, Liu Cong surrendered to Cao Cao. As a result, Wenpin, as the general of the Liu family, naturally changed his family and became the general of the Cao family. However, Wenpin did not go to visit Cao Cao at first, until Cao Cao asked Wenpin to come over, and Wenpin went to see Cao Cao.

Cao Cao naturally asked Wenpin why he refused to come to see him, and whether he was unwilling to surrender to himself.

And Wenpin was crying bitterly at the time, saying that as Liu Biao's Tuogu general in Jingzhou, he was supposed to protect the land and protect the family property for Liu Cong, but now because Liu Cong voluntarily surrendered, Wenpin felt ashamed of Liu Biao Tuogu However, he couldn't do anything to Cao Cao, who occupied Jingzhou. He felt a little helpless, like clenching his fist, but he didn't know who to hit. He really didn't know how to deal with himself.

As a result, Cao Cao lamented Wenpin's loyalty, entertained Wenpin with generous gifts, and granted Wenpin military power. After that, he asked Wenpin to help guard Jiangxia for decades.

It can be seen from this that Wenpin is actually very loyal to Liu Biao, so Zhu Wei does have some feelings that it may not be easy for him to make Wenpin sincerely surrender now.

This Wenpin was considered to be a general personally selected by Liu Biao after he arrived in Jingzhou, and he was also the only general promoted by Liu Biao in Jingzhou, so Wenpin should indeed be kind and loyal to Liu Biao.

The current situation is not that Liu Cong took Wenpin to surrender, but Zhu Wei forcibly attacked Xiangyang, let Wenpin die the old master, and then threatened Wenpin to surrender. This will make Wenpin turn his mind to surrender, Zhu Wei Wei really wasn't sure.

Although Wenpin was willing to surrender in name before, it may be a tactic to delay the army, just to find opportunities for Liu Biao to avenge.

Of course, Zhu Wei is not sure whether Wenpin wants to avenge Liu Biao in his heart, unless he sees his loyalty. Anyway, Wenpin should be clear now that Zhu Wei will never give him the right to separatist regime in Xinye If there is no chance, the only path he can choose now is to fight to the end, or leave the city and surrender.

And Zhu Wei asked Yiji to enter Xinye City to persuade Wenpin and Han Song. Song, still has some private relationship. On the other hand, Yiji is good at eloquence. He used to negotiate on behalf of Liu Biao, and now he is also using his strengths.

At this time, Zhu Wei still hoped that Yi Ji could be said to move Wenpin. If Wenpin really resisted to the end, Zhu Wei could only regretfully kill this general who can be regarded as a famous player in history.

In this way, about half an hour after Yi Ji entered Xinye City, Xinye City finally opened the city gate, and then Yi Ji led Han Song out and came to Zhu Wei's central army formation.

Zhu Wei sat on the high command platform built with several carriages. At this time, Zhu Wei didn't know who the person Yiji brought was with him, but he saw that Yiji was accompanied by a scholar who seemed to be nearly forty years old. When he came over, he stood up and bowed to the two of them, "Mr. Lao Ji is here. I wonder who this gentleman is? What do you think of General Wen and Mr. Han?"

"My lord, this is Han Song and Han Degao. My lord's wishes have already been conveyed. Zhongye agrees to go out of the city to accept the surrender. He just needs Degao to come and discuss the specific matters with the lord!"

At this moment, Yiji is officially taking Zhu Wei as the main character, so he has changed his name to Zhu Wei as the main character. Now it seems that his persuasion to surrender this time is still very effective, and Wen Pin really agreed to surrender.

As for Han Song who came now, compared to generals like Wenpin, Zhu Wei didn't care too much. Han Song was just an ordinary internal affairs military officer, perhaps the talent of a prefect of a county.

However, at this time, Zhu Wei naturally would not express his contempt for Han Song, so Zhu Wei saluted Han Song again, "It turns out that it is Mr. De Gao, who has heard of his name for a long time. I don't know what kind of things you need to discuss with General Wen ?”

It was also the first time for Han Song to see Zhu Wei, so he couldn't help sizing up Zhu Wei at the moment. Seeing Zhu Wei's posture, his first impression was good, "This... Zhongye wants to ask, Qian How does Marquis Tang plan to deal with Liu Muzhou's aftermath? Listen to Uncle Ji's words, Liu Muzhou committed suicide, and now his body is kept in Xiangyang for the time being, because of the incident in Nanyang, it has been delayed until now and has not been buried!"

"Well, although Liu Biao is a traitor, he is a clan member of the Han family after all. Wei Zi will be buried with honor, and will never lose the face of the Han family! Please rest assured, General Wen and Mr. De Gao!"

Since it was only for Liu Biao's funeral, Zhu Wei naturally wouldn't make things difficult. Anyway, it was just spending some money to bury him. This can be regarded as showing Zhu Wei's generosity to the world.

"Thank you so much for Qian Tanghou's generosity! Then, how will Qian Tanghou deal with the soldiers of Xinye? Can Zhongye be a farmer in the countryside..."

After hearing Zhu Wei's statement, Han Song naturally bowed to Zhu Wei with satisfaction, but soon said something that surprised Zhu Wei...
