Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World
Chapter 2243 Should we look at him as an envoy to Yanjing, a wild idea about Xuanyuan?
Chapter 2243 Should we look at him as an envoy to Yanjing, a wild idea about Xuanyuan?
From then on, with the victorious reunion of Tan Daoji's army and Yue Fei, Yanjing was now completely isolated.
After three days of rest, Yue Fei waited for Tan Daoji's army to join him, and then launched another attack on the city.
However, Xuanyuan Huang was not an incompetent person.
In the past half month, Xuanyuan Huang has been nearly driven to the brink of despair several times.
However, he managed to persevere through the ordeal.
Yanjing City was once reduced to a meat grinder.
Moreover, it is a meat grinder targeting both the Han and Yan dynasties.
The casualties inflicted during the month and a half of siege had made the eyes of the Han army red with rage.
After all, the morale of the Great Yan army had plummeted due to a series of defeats. However, this place still contained the last elite force of the Great Yan.
Furthermore, coupled with the strong foundation of the Great Yan's rule in the East Coast, Xuanyuan Huang was able to easily gather a large number of people in the city to help him.
It wasn't until Wang Yingkan arrived that this meat grinder finally came to an end!
"Brother Ying should go into the city to visit Xuanyuan Huang!"
When they heard the purpose of Wang Yingkan, who was supposed to be in Yangdong Road but had suddenly changed course to Donghai Road, the generals in the tent were all astonished!
"Brother Wang, don't tell me you want to persuade Xuanyuan Huang to surrender!" Li Cunxiao's eyes were full of suspicion.
It's only because the two of them have known each other for so many years and are quite familiar with each other; otherwise, he might have immediately started mocking them.
Throughout history, has any emperor who surrendered ever had a good ending?
Not to mention figures like Xuanyuan Huang, who can be considered great rulers!
Therefore, such people are basically those who would rather die than surrender!
In fact, which of those who were able to build a foundation in chaotic times was afraid of death?
Those who are afraid of death will never reach the heights of Xuanyuan Huang; they will be eliminated one by one long before they even get to that point.
"I certainly don't have the ability to persuade Xuanyuan Huang to surrender!" Wang Yingkan admitted frankly, seemingly unconcerned about the strange looks he received from the people on the way.
"General Yue, Brother Cunxiao!"
“Xuanyuan Huang may not surrender, but he is a good person!” Wang Ying said, looking at the two men.
Every diplomat must have a considerable understanding of human nature.
In other words, if they did not have sufficient understanding of human nature, they would not be able to get to the heart of the matter during their missions.
Whether it's Xuanyuan Huang of Da Cang or Xiao Ping'an of Da Qian, they are essentially the same kind of people. They may not be the most suitable rulers for chaotic times, but they are both very good rulers.
Take Xuanyuan Huang, for example. Born into the largest family in the East Sea, why did he join the Celestial Masters Sect in the first place? He even broke with the Xuanyuan family for it.
It should be understood that if Xuanyuan Huang truly cared about the world, and if he relied on the Xuanyuan family as his foundation, his journey would likely have been much smoother than it was within the Celestial Masters sect.
In a sense, the Celestial Masters sect actually held Xuanyuan Huang back.
"Besides, there's no harm in giving it a try!"
“Anyway, it doesn’t require us, the Han Dynasty, to pay anything,” Wang Yingkan said.
When two countries are at war, envoys are not to be killed.
While not everyone will absolutely follow this principle, at least someone like Xuanyuan Huang is unlikely to do such a thing.
Wang Yingkan did not believe that there would be any danger in sending an envoy to Yanjing at this time.
After all, what envoy's mission is without risk? It's just a matter of degree!
Take Wang Yingkan, for example. He had previously visited Zhongcang, Zhaosong, various families on the grasslands, and even Jiang Chaoyu's place. Were these families absolutely safe?
…………………… Yan Jing.
Xuanyuan Huang, Xuanyuan Xuanxiao, Da Hong, Feng Hou, Xue Ju, and others—these remaining rulers and ministers—gathered together.
Many of those present had sorrowful eyes.
After all, in the more than one month of siege, even Xuanyuan Huang's eldest daughter, Xuanyuan Ba, had died in battle, let alone the others.
For example, after Xue Ju's youngest son, Xue Renyue, died in battle, his wife, Lady Ju, was so grief-stricken upon hearing the news that she became bedridden.
Half a month ago, after his eldest son Xue Rengao died in battle, he finally succumbed to the repeated blows.
Therefore, Xue Ju was very irritable during this period.
For example, Zhang Shier's younger brother, Zhang Huer, was killed by Deng Jiugong, who rushed up the city wall, with a single blow three days ago.
"Your Majesty, in the last three days, our army has recruited another 2 able-bodied men!"
"We must fight the Han army to the last man in this Yan capital!" Chu Suiliang said firmly.
"Report, Your Majesty, the Han army has sent envoys to negotiate with our army!" Just then, the strategist Hao Yuan entered and reported.
"What, an envoy from the Han army?"
"They even dared to send envoys!"
"Just send someone to kill them, why bother seeing them?" Xue Ju said excitedly.
After Xue Ju, Zhang Churang, Zhang Shier, and their generals, all equally excited, roared just like Xue Ju.
"Quiet!"
"What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket in the main hall?"
Xuanyuan Huang stopped the noisy crowd and then looked at Hao Yuan, saying, "Since the envoy of the Great Han has come, let him in. I want to see what kind of conspiracy the Great Han has up its sleeve?"
"If the Han dares to send people here at this time, what is there for our Great Yan not to see?"
A moment later, escorted by a group of Yellow Turban warriors, Wang Yingkan, dressed in the official robes of a Han envoy and exuding an extraordinary air, arrived inside the main hall of the Great Yan Imperial Palace.
Wang Yingkan ignored the numerous civil and military officials of the Great Yan who were filled with murderous intent. He was courteous but stared directly at the emperor who was trapped in a lonely city without any hesitation.
"I, Wang Yingkan, have come to pay my respects to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Yan by order of the Emperor of the Great Han."
Wang Yingkan bowed respectfully, his voice clear and resonant, standing out prominently in the quiet palace.
"Han envoy, since our two armies are at war, let's get straight to the point!"
Xuanyuan Huang's voice was flat, revealing no emotion.
Wang Ying smiled slightly and did not answer directly. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "As I traveled along the way, I saw that the walls of Yanjing were sturdy and the soldiers were brave and loyal. Your Majesty is also wise and powerful, which is truly admirable."
"It is rare in history to be able to hold out for nearly two months against the siege of hundreds of thousands of Han troops."
Xuanyuan Huang simply looked at Wang Yingkan without making any response, waiting quietly for him to continue.
Upon seeing this, Wang Ying's expression turned serious again, and his tone became heavy.
"However, Your Majesty, please forgive my bluntness, but with the war at this point, Yanjing is now an isolated city, without reinforcements from the outside and lacking supplies from within. May I ask Your Majesty, what chance does Great Yan have of victory?"
