The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 301 Huan Xuan surrenders

Liu Wei glanced at Huan Xuan's tribe behind him and at the hanging basket swaying down on the wall of Changyi City. Liu Wei did not expect that the first thing he did after seeing Liu Tai was to convince Huan Declare surrender.

Obviously, Liu Tai didn't really approve of himself, otherwise he wouldn't have allowed himself to make such a move.

Alas, as the rumors said, Liu Tai has always been harsh on the aristocratic family.

Otherwise, I should have set an example for the Jin court to surrender, and then entertained myself with high-ranking officials and generous salaries. Why would I have come to recruit Huan Xuan?

When Liu Wei thought of this, he couldn't help but miss Sima Rui. Sima Rui put him in such high regard, but in the end, he and Diao Xie joined forces to make Sima Rui controlled by Wang Dun. Liu Wei felt even more ashamed when he thought of this.

As Huan Xuan's tribesmen were sent up one by one, Liu Wei was finally left.

Liu Wei was pulled by the hanging basket to climb up the Changyi city wall, just in time to see smoke starting to drift from Liu Tai's camp.

At this moment, Liu Wei sighed in his heart, "Is Liu Tai really preparing the meal?"

However, Liu Wei didn't want to think too much anymore, because at this time Liu Wei saw Huan Xuan.

"Is it really Liu Shizhong?!" Huan Xuan was more or less surprised when he saw Liu Tai sending his whole family over.

Now that he saw Liu Wei appearing in front of him with his beard and tail intact, Huan Xuan was even more unbelievable.

But Huan Xuan quickly accepted the reality, looked at Liu Wei in front of him, and said with a complicated expression:

"Did Wang Dun already win, so Liu Shizhong escaped from Jiankang?"

Liu Wei was originally worried about how he should speak better, but when he heard Huan Xuan's words, he felt ashamed and ashamed, and he suddenly said:

"Kui was incompetent, unable to serve the country above and suppress the rebellion below, which resulted in Jiankang being in chaos and His Majesty being humiliated.

Now he actually has to accept Xiao'er's order to persuade the general to surrender. How can Wei see the general in person? "

Liu Wei said that he was about to turn around and jump off the city wall, just to throw himself to death!

At this time, Huan Xuan was shocked that Wangdun was only a state, so he was surprised that he could successfully rebel. He had no time to stop Liu Wei.

But the Huan clan leader jumped up at this moment, hugged Liu Wei's thigh decisively and screamed miserably:

"Liu Shizhong, you have died a hundred times, but our entire Huan family will come to bury you with you."

Liu Wei's original intention to climb forward suddenly froze, and his whole body became even more dejected and frustrated, as if he was bending forward.

Huan Xuan also understood at this time that Liu Wei and even Liu Tai would find it disgusting for such a person to take over, and he was afraid that he would dirty his hands by doing it.

So if you are ready to resist, just let yourself kill him... What a despicable Liu Tai!

Huan Xuan couldn't help but said to the Huan clan leader: "Old clan leader, please tell me why the clan members were caught here?"

Chief Huan wiped his tears and said, "Xuanzhi, just half a month ago, the Han cavalry rushed directly to the family.

All the men in the family were captured and sent here, and now the whole family has been sent here.

The King of Han said, if you surrender, everyone will be happy. If you continue to resist stubbornly, then let us all walk in order, and we will never be alone on the road to hell!

No, in order to show my sincerity to you, we have sent all of our clan to Changyi City first! "

"This Liu Tai is so shameless!" Huan Xuan couldn't help but feel angry when he heard the words of the Huan clan leader.

"Xuanzhi, the patriarch knows that you want to be loyal and filial to your family. Our Huan family has always valued loyalty and filial piety. We had no intention of persuading you to surrender. If we die together, our Huan family's name will be clear.

But now, listening to Liu Wei's words, His Majesty suffered a military disaster and Wang Dun succeeded in his rebellion. Are you not planning to garrison the city for Wang Dun? "

The leader of the Huan clan persuaded Huan Xuan earnestly.

After hearing what the Huan clan leader said, Huan Xuan looked at the dead-faced Liu Wei next to him, then looked at his own clan leader, and couldn't help but sigh, "Clan leader, you look more like a lobbyist sent here by Liu Tai."

When the Huan clan leader heard this, he looked much calmer and said:

"He is heartbroken, so he is not a good lobbyist, but he is indeed a good candidate to behead you as a sacrifice.

But as for me, I want the Huan family to survive! "

When Huan Xuan heard the words of the Huan clan leader, his heart was more or less inevitably touched.

Because Huan Xuan also understood very well that as Wang Dun captured Jiankang and captured Sima Rui, even if Sima Rui was not forced to abdicate now, the fate of the Jin court was almost conceivable.

Wang Dun was afraid that he would not be praised and worshiped soon, and he would not go to court. He would go to the palace with swords and shoes and wait for the traitor's three-piece set to be put into operation soon.

After all, Wang Dun came all the way to Jiankang just to kill the traitorous officials and clear the emperor's side, right?

In other words, the Jin court that he was originally loyal to was just gone.

Not only is the Jin court gone, but also its own reinforcements! Huan Xuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, what's the matter!

Seeing Huan Xuan still hesitating, the Huan clan leader knelt down decisively:

"Xuanzhi, if you say that you will be able to defend the city, then I won't say anything.

But if you are not sure of keeping it, then I beg you, please leave the blood of Huan family.

The King of Han has painted a picture for each of us, and none of us can escape! "

"Get up, get up quickly!" Huan Xuan looked at the appearance of the Huan clan leader and said in a deep voice, "I understand."

Huan Xuan was very helpless. Until now, Liu Tai had never seriously attacked the city. Unexpectedly, he first messed up his military morale, and then showed a steady and unhurried attitude.

Now that he has thrown away the killer card of his own tribe, what other choice can he make?

Or in other words, what choice should I make?

In the final analysis, it's not that I am partial to the family, it's Jin Ting's incompetence in choosing the family.

Even if you don't end the Wangdun Rebellion, you must at least hold on to the stalemate and give yourself someone to be loyal to!

As a result, Sima Rui reused a man with great ambitions and talents like Liu Wei. Now that Wang Dun has fought all the way to Jiankang, he didn’t even go there to die for his country. In the end, he actually ran away from Jiankang and became a lobbyist for Liu Tai. Even Liu Tai Taidu felt a little disgusted.

Even though I wanted to kill him, I was afraid that it would harm my entire family, which really made me depressed.

And the most troublesome thing is that it is impossible for me to be loyal to the Langya Wang family and then let the whole clan be loyal to me.

Opposite him is Liu Tai, a real Han Dynasty descendant certified by Liu Kun. Liu Tai is not a Xibei like Liu Yuan.

Huan Xuan shook his head and said to his soldiers: "Go and remove the blocking stones, get out of the city and surrender!"

"No!" The soldiers around him responded loudly when they heard that Huan Xuan had made such a decision.

To be honest, these days the soldiers are not only accepting the temptation outside the city, but also watching their generals patrol every day, so they are more or less guilty of conscience. I thought in my heart that I would wait until the food was gone. When Liu Tai attacked, it would be more harmless to surrender in any posture. It would not be impossible to even switch sides before the battle.

But now that he saw Huan Xuan surrendering, he felt more or less regretful.

If I had climbed down on the city wall earlier and took advantage of the darkness to escape to Liu Tai, would I have been able to get the land? If I surrender now, would I still have the land? ?

Soon, Huan Xuan sent someone over to report the news of his surrender to Liu Tai.

Liu Tai was not polite at all, and immediately went over to greet Huan Xuan and said, "The general is very good at running the army. I have the general, and he is like a tiger with wings!"

Huan Xuan felt a little ashamed when he heard Liu Tai's words, and said ashamedly, "The king is wrong about the reward, and the defeated general is not brave enough!"

Liu Tai shook his head, stretched out his hand to hold Huan Xuan's hand, and said: "Today we have wine and meat, and I will help the general to wash away the dust."

When Liu Tai said this, he turned his eyes to Liu Wei and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Liu, please come and have a drink together!"

When Liu Wei heard Liu Tai's words, he looked at Huan Xuan and felt even more ashamed.

Huan Xuan understood that no matter what, Liu Wei was the first person in the Jin court to seek refuge with Liu Tai.

And he came to persuade him to succeed. For Liu Tai, Liu Wei had submitted his petition. Not all of them were pitiful people, so there was nothing to blame each other for. In any case, surrendered ministers like himself should Hug together to keep warm.

So Huan Xuan took a deep breath, smiled at Liu Wei and said, "Liu Shizhong, just sit down together."

When Liu Wei heard Huan Xuan's words, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Go together, go together!"

Liu Tai didn't know about the relationship between Huan Xuan and Liu Wei, but Liu Tai knew very well that regardless of whether Liu Wei was sincere in surrendering, since it was Liu Kai who came forward to persuade Huan Xuan to surrender this time, Liu Kai would There was no way out for him.

After all, even if the Jin court didn't know the situation, could it be that so much military history on Liu Tai's side was just for reading?

One by one, the story of Liu Wei's mission and Huan Xuan's surrender was highlighted. The process is not important, the important thing is the result.

I took advantage of the situation and gave Liu Wei a high salary, so even the people inside would not have any objections. At the same time, I also gave the guy who surrendered in the future an explanation.

Liu Tai turned his head and said to Wen Qiao: "The morale of the soldiers who have returned is not high. We must use our alcohol to entertain them. We will definitely keep them from getting drunk before returning."

When Wen Qiao heard Liu Tai's words, he glanced at Liu Tai in surprise, but still nodded firmly.

To be honest, Liu Tai's alcohol is indeed produced. After all, distilled alcohol is not a difficult thing for Liu Tai, who has already used coal to enter thousands of households.

But because this thing consumes too much food, even if Liu Tai brews a small amount, basically all of it is given to the medical camp, and will be used by the medical camp to save lives when necessary.

But even so, there are some old drunkards in the military camp who secretly sneak into the medical camp to steal alcohol.

Now that Liu Tai said that he would use alcohol to entertain these soldiers, Wen Qiao understood that Liu Tai was not at ease with Huan Xuan.

But the other party has just surrendered, and the atmosphere is so good. I have even prepared meals, so I can't talk about annexing your soldiers first.

Therefore, if you use the alcohol directly on the soldiers, no matter whether they have any plans or not, they will get drunk for a night first.

Liu Tai continued to guide the two of them to sit down, and then continued to talk and laugh. When Wen Qiao came back and nodded to him, Liu Tai said to Huan: "General Huan, what kind of person do you think Zu Yue is? Our army still hasn't taken it." If you think he knows about Wang Dun’s overthrow of the Jin court, can he turn over the dark side and return to the Han Dynasty?"

Compared with Liu Tai's merciless slaughter when dealing with Shi Le and Liu Yao, now compared with the generals of the Jin court such as Huan Xuan and Zu Yue, Liu Tai prefers to attack and attack at the same time.

After all, since the Han Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty were incompatible with each other, they were all Han people, and the generals under their command could be discussed to some extent.

At the same time, he also needs to change the family's view of him bit by bit.

That is, although Liu Tai is harsh on the aristocratic family, he is still orthodox in the Han Dynasty, so he still sticks to the rules of the upper class.

It's like surrendering after a defeated battle, unlike the barbarians who just buried people alive without caring about anything.

For the aristocratic family, Liu Tai's original restraint and targeting of the aristocratic family was indeed very annoying to them.

But now with Liu Tai accepting Liu Wei and surrendering to Huan Xuan, no matter how you say it, this is how the Han should behave in a war.

Instead of starting to massacre the city at every turn, especially the massacre of the city that even the aristocratic families would not spare. For the aristocratic families, they really don't want to see the nightmare scene like the Yongjia Rebellion again.

For Liu Tai, he never intended to please the family.

But I have always been harshly evaluated by the aristocratic family. Now that I have released a little bit of kindness and made the aristocratic family feel that I am not completely unreasonable, this little bit of kindness will be infinitely magnified.

It's like a person who often does bad things did such a good thing.

But having said that, for Liu Tai, the most important thing is for Zu Yue to surrender.

Because Zu Yue is Zu Ti's younger brother, he is almost the inheritance of Zu Ti's will. As long as he chooses to surrender, then for Liu Tai, the entire Yanzhou will basically not need to fight, and even resistance will become quite sporadic. This is Zu Yue's will. The legacy left by Ti.

"The young scholar carries the legacy of Zu Yuzhou, and he takes Zu Yuzhou as an example. If something will bring shame to Zu Yuzhou, he may not be able to accept it for a while!" Huan Xuan couldn't help but feel a little concerned when he heard Liu Tai's words. Said with some emotion.

"Oh..." Liu Tai was thoughtful after hearing Huan Xuan's words, then raised his head and said:

"If I am willing to declare that since the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, the Chinese people have moved southward and the people in the north have been abandoned by the Jin court, only Liu Kun, Zuti and his wife have supported the sky for our Han people in the foreign jurisdiction.

Therefore, I am willing to canonize them as Han national heroes, and enjoy the same ritual worship as me. The Han Dynasty will never be destroyed, and the incense of national heroes will be endless. Naturally, their ancestral families will be the ones who keep the incense! "

"Your Majesty!" Wen Qiao couldn't help but be anxious when he heard Liu Tai's words. Do you know what you are talking about, Your Majesty?

Liu Tai stretched out his hand to stop Wen Qiao and said sternly: "The Han Dynasty can be destroyed, but the Han people cannot be exterminated. I established the military history system so that sincere Han heroes like these two people can flaunt the history. This first step is to Respect history!”

When Liu Tai said this, he looked at Huan Xuan and said, "General Huan, are you willing to go to the ancestral appointment office for me and tell him the conditions I gave to Zu Ti!?"

Huan Xuan looked at Liu Tai at this moment, feeling that Liu Tai's figure was indescribably majestic, and his whole body seemed to be shining with light. Hearing Liu Tai's words again, for some reason, he felt a sour taste rising in him.

Zu Yue, is your life so good? ?
