Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 2220 Xie Ai changes defense, Rang Ju is determined

The combined strength of Xie Ai and other staunch anti-Jin elements such as Zhe Keqiu was enough to occupy half of the Runan army.

In fact, if Yuan Chonghuan could be united again, the power of the connection between them would give them the upper hand.

As for whether Yuan Chonghuan will unite with them?
Wen Zhong and Xie Ai don’t need to consider this issue!

If Yuan Chonghuan had not joined forces with them, would he still be waiting to die in Runan?

In the process of the Central Plains War and the Southern War, Yuan Chonghuan's Guanning Iron Cavalry was the biggest victim! Now that they were blocked in Runan, unable to advance or retreat, the Yuan family was worried!
However, what they were worried about was not the Xuzhou troops outside of them, but the troops led by Hulugu in the Jin army's Hanzhong camp, as well as those of Zhang Liao and Cao Ren. More than 100,000 troops were the fundamental threat to their retreat to the east!
Therefore, after a discussion, they decided to let the most mobile Guanning Cavalry take the lead. Before anyone could react, they would use the mobility of the cavalry to enter Yangzhou and Shouchun as soon as possible.

In this way, it can also prevent the Jin army from invading Jianghuai at this time, which can be regarded as the first sincerity to Zhu Yuanzhang!
At the same time, they contacted Zhu Yuanzhang and asked him to cooperate with them.

After that, Xie Ai and Wen Zhong planned to replace Hetian Rangju.

Xie Ai and Wen Zhong wanted to use Tian Rangju's obstruction to buy themselves some time to reach Jianghuai.

Although they didn't know what Tian Rangju was thinking, they were sure that even if Tian Rangju was not a loyal minister, surrendering to Jin would not be accomplished in a short period of time.

Tian Rangju was not an insignificant person. If he wanted to surrender, both sides would have to bargain. A person like Tian Rangju, who surrendered with his troops, would definitely be able to occupy a high position right away.

But the prices of both parties must be different at the beginning, so it will take a certain amount of time. As for Tian Rangju, if he surrendered without any demands, wouldn't he become a pure grudge?

However, Xie Ai and Wen Zhong both thought from the beginning that it would be a huge challenge to get Tian Rangju to agree to the change of defense.

These two people did not mind speculating Tian Rangju with the greatest malicious intent, and even classified him as a defector to the Jin Dynasty.

Not to mention that since the Central Plains War, countless people from their old Tian family have surrendered to Jin. Just in Runan today, the main force of those surrenderers who have jumped out one after another are from their old Tian family.

Under such circumstances, how could Xie Ai and Wen Zhong believe Tian Rangju?

The two sides did not directly engage in a fight, which was the result of mutual restraint between the two sides.

However, just when they thought a verbal battle was about to begin and just when they were racking their brains to get Tian Rangju to agree to their demands, they never expected that Tian Rangju would not make things difficult for them!
Although Xie Ai and Wen Zhong had done their best to achieve their goal and tried to come up with various reasons to deceive Tian Rangju, however, as one of the four military sages, he would not be fooled so easily!
Tian Rangju could naturally perceive that, from a military perspective, after this change of guard, what would each side face next?
"Rang Ju, are you really going to let these guys go?" "You should know that now is the time for great changes!"

"If we let these people go, we will be letting go of a huge stepping stone!" After the dust settled, Tian Pan hurriedly came directly to Tian Rangju.

He really couldn't figure out what was wrong with his brother's head? Why did he really let these people go?

Wen Zhong, Xie Ai, and some others were clamoring every day that they wanted to fight the Jin army to the death. If their heads were used as a stepping stone to advancement, the Jin emperor would definitely be very happy!

And if they could offer these 80,000 soldiers and horses, they would definitely be able to enjoy a good life in the future, and achieve success and fame.

"enough!"

"People can be cowardly, but that doesn't mean they can be shameless!" Tian Rangju looked at Tian Pan with a cold expression. He really couldn't understand why Tian Pan, who used to be sober and calm, seemed to have lost his mind during this period of time.

In the Tian family, although the relationship between the two of them is indeed good, it can even be said that they are so good that they can wear the same pants.

However, Tian Pan was so self-righteous that he could make the decision for him, as if Tian Rangju had already made up his mind to surrender to Jin. But before the other party took this attitude, did he ask for Tian Rangju's opinion?
I really don’t know what to say!
Not to mention, he didn't expect that his brother, who had grown up with him, would be so shameless now!
Xie Ai and his men, no matter what, were their comrades in the army. Even if Tian Pan wanted to do something, he would do it. However, in the process, he wanted to take off his comrade's head as a step for his promotion. Tian Rangju had never thought that his brother would have such a shameless side!
Even if he did so and made great contributions to the Jin army, what could it do?

It's only a temporary benefit, but it will block all their future paths!

If they really did this, even if they joined the Jin army in the future, would the people on the Jin army believe them? Would they really accept them? As long as they did this, there would be a gap between the two sides!

Who would believe a person who not only betrayed his teammates but also killed them? Aren't they really afraid that one day their heads will be cut off by the other party and given as a gift to others?

If things develop to that extent, even if they surrender, they will be sacrificed and eliminated sooner or later!
Not to mention, all of this was just Tian Pan being self-righteous. Tian Rangju had never said that he had ever thought of surrendering!
As a general, he was frightened and raised the white flag before the war even started. This would become a stain on his life and even a lifelong shame.

Even if there really is something, we have to defeat him head-on on the battlefield first!
He didn't know whether other people could surrender without fighting, but he, Tian Rangju, couldn't do it!
