Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 16 The leader of Jingnan?
Seeing that Wei Yan was about to kill Han Xuan and Huang Zhong was unable to stop him, and he looked at him for help, Xing Daorong thought to himself that he could not stop him either!
Besides, now that things have developed to this point, it doesn’t matter whether Han Xuan lives or dies, but we can’t let him run away.

He immediately pulled Wei Yan over and said, "Wei Yan, don't do anything about Han Xuan yourself, but you can't let him escape!"

Seeing Xing Daorong's serious expression, Wei Yan wondered why he told him not to take any action.

After thinking about it, Xing Daorong's words were not bad after all.

He nodded vigorously and said, "Wei Yan has made a note of it. I will go first!"

After saying that, he chased after him madly, but he was half a step too late, and Han Xuan escaped!
Xing Daorong said again: "General Huang, you must arrest Han Hao and Han Xuan's family members. Don't let anyone escape."

Huang Zhong also nodded. He didn't think there was anything wrong with what Xing Daorong had told him to do, so he took his men and went there.

Still, Xing Daorong felt something was a little weird after he finished speaking.

Why is it that Changsha seems to have the final say for the time being?
What should I do when facing Guan Yu after that?

While Xing Daorong was thinking, Wei Yan had already chased Han Xuan into the alleys in the city.

He rushed into the alley and ran as fast as he could, holding a single knife. He had already caught up with Han Xuan and blocked him in a dead end.

Han Xuan was terrified. He leaned against the dead end and knelt down and said, "Wei Yan, please don't kill me."

Wei Yan couldn't help but feel disgusted by seeing such a cowardly look.

He was about to chop Han Xuan into two pieces, but he remembered Xing Daorong's instructions and finally put down the blade.

He took a step forward, grabbed Han Xuan and said, "Han Xuan, you don't know what's good for you. I really want to kill you! But since General Xing has already said so, I won't kill you."

Han Xuan felt relieved after hearing this.

After all, you can't die, right?
Soon, Changsha's "regime" was completely overturned. Xing Daorong, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan took control of the city. They were now sitting in the prefect's mansion, discussing what to do next.

Xing Daorong was relieved to see that Han Xuan was not dead, and patted Wei Yan and said, "Wen Chang, well done."

Although Wei Yan understood what was said, he still didn't understand, so he asked in doubt: "Han Xuan deserves to die, why not kill him?"

Xing Daorong said: "To eat his salary and kill his master is disloyalty; to live on his land and give his land is unrighteousness. Although you have done a great deed by killing Han Xuan, I am afraid that people will think you have a traitorous mind and you will not be valued in the future!"

Wei Yan was shocked when he heard this.

He touched his head unconsciously, then thought about what Xing Daorong said and felt that it made a lot of sense.

He nodded and said, "Thank you, General Xing, for your advice."

After saying this, he stood aside, looking like he was just ready to follow orders.

On the side, Bao Long suggested: "The situation is not favorable today, why not open the city and surrender?"

But when Bao Long saw Xing Daorong preparing to accompany Huang Zhong to death, he secretly thought that they were doomed.

Unexpectedly, after several twists and turns, Xing Daorong was in charge of Changsha.

He thought to himself that Xing Daorong was truly a capable person, and that wealth and honor must be sought at the risk of one's life. If Changsha surrendered, he would become the greatest hero!
"Grandmaster Zhao is really good at judging people!"

With a sigh in his heart, Bao Long immediately wanted to hug Xing Daorong's thighs.

Xing Daorong didn't want to surrender, but if everyone lost the will to fight, Xing Daorong wouldn't be able to persist alone.

Hearing Bao Long's words, Xing Daorong ignored him and just looked at Huang Zhong and said, "General Huang, what do you think?" Huang Zhong hesitated for a moment, but sighed and said, "Guan Yu is very righteous, and Liu Xuande is very kind and righteous. Now that several counties in southern Jing have surrendered, if we fight again, it will only cause unrest here."

Although Huang Zhong didn't express himself very clearly, his meaning was very clear.

Seeing this, Xing Daorong finally nodded and said, "In this case, I will go find Guan Yu and make three rules with him. One, do not harm the people, two, do not frame you, and three, do not attack Han Xuan. Only then will we surrender."

I can understand the first two, but I don’t quite understand the third one.

At least Wei Yan and Bao Long didn't understand.

Huang Zhong still understood what Xing Daorong meant, so he stepped forward and said, "General Xing has considered everything. It's just a matter of surrender. It's better to let me go. I'm old, and I'm not afraid of such a shameful thing!"

Seeing that Huang Zhong insisted and that it didn't matter who went to surrender, Xing Daorong followed him.

But it is said that Liu Bei came with Guan Yu to take Changsha, and he and Kong Ming followed and urged troops to support.

As they were marching, the green flag fluttered backwards, and a crow flew from the north to the south, crowed three times, and then left.

Seeing this sign from the heavens, Liu Bei could not help but ask, "What kind of blessing or disaster will this bring?"

Kong Ming immediately drew a divination with his sleeves, and suddenly laughed out loud, "Changsha County has been captured, and the general has been captured. The outcome will be clear after noon."

After a while, a lieutenant came with a report, saying, "General Guan has captured Changsha County and surrendered Xing Daorong, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan. Wait for the lord to arrive there."

When Liu Bei heard that Xing Daorong was also in Changsha, he was overjoyed and asked, "How come General Xing is also in Changsha?"

The lieutenant said, "Huang Zhong of Changsha fought against General Guan for three days. When he did not want to return to the city, he was captured by the governor Han Xuan, who accused him of having an affair with Guan Yu and wanted to kill him."

"General Xing pleaded for him, but Han Xuan also held him accountable!"

"Just when he was about to be executed, he was saved by Wei Yan."

Obviously, Huang Zhong told Guan Yu everything that happened in the city, which allowed the young officer to report it clearly and unambiguously.

When Liu Bei heard that Huang Zhong could fight Guan Yu for three days, he naturally knew how powerful Huang Zhong was and could not help but be overjoyed.

Hearing Xing Daorong's loyalty and risking his life to plead for mercy, he was even more moved to admire his talent.

He immediately urged the troops to march faster and arrived at the city in a few days.

Guan Yu had been waiting in the hall. When he saw Liu Bei, he described the situation on the battlefield in detail.

In particular, he told him that Huang Zhong's horse stumbled and he did not take the opportunity to kill him. Then, when Huang Zhong retaliated with Li, he did not shoot back at his vital points.

Liu Bei was amazed when he heard this and said, "So that's how it is. General Huang is also a loyal and righteous man."

Then he asked, "Han Xuan wanted to execute Huang Zhong, but only Xing Daorong pleaded for him. Is that the case?"

Guan Yu nodded and said, "That's right. General Xing said that he is a defeated general and it is not easy to surrender to the enemy. General Huang also said the same thing. It's a pity."

When Liu Bei heard that Xing Daorong and Huang Zhong refused to surrender, he immediately became anxious and shouted, "What should I do?"

Zhuge Liang said, "The key lies with General Xing. I heard that he came here to send Zhao Fan's sister-in-law. He is also the general of Lingling, and now Huang Zhong is grateful to him. He is of great importance."

That’s right, now Xing Daorong has turned himself into the leader of Jingnan with his tricks...
