Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 378 Xing Daorong’s eloquence!
As soon as Xing Daorong opened his mouth, Ling Tong naturally stopped talking.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone knew what they meant. It was clearly an attempt to shake the morale of the army and persuade the two thousand men to surrender.

Dong Xi didn't expect that Xing Daorong didn't intend to fight at all, and wanted to ruin his army with words. He was anxious and tried to stop Xing Daorong immediately.

But he shouted: "Xing Daorong! Don't say anything more, just come and kill me if you have the guts!"

But the more anxious Dong Xi was, the less anxious Xing Daorong was.

He ignored the thing and just shouted: "You sons and daughters of Jiangdong! Jiangdong is peaceful now. Who do you want to harm by being bandits?"

"Are you going to harm your family members, your parents?"

"Even though I have suffered the hardships of this chaotic world, now that the South is peaceful and unified, do I want to make other innocent people suffer as well?"

Xing Daorong was the first to plead for mercy.

In fact, most of these Jiangdong soldiers did not suffer much in the troubled times.

After all, more than ten years have passed since Sun Ce entered Jiangdong.

During the past ten years or so, apart from major wars such as the Battle of Red Cliffs, the rest of the wars were minor internal frictions and the country was generally peaceful.

People with both a father and a mother are not the exception.

Listening to Xing Daorong talking about these things, he had no desire to fight in the first place, and now he had even less desire.

However, not many people have dropped their weapons yet. It is obvious that just talking about mercy is not enough.

Xing Daorong naturally knew this, so he said, "Nowadays, soldiers get 20 coins a month each. You are a bandit, not to mention food and drink, but also money. How could you possibly have this?"

Twenty coins may not be a lot, but it is definitely something that Jiangdong soldiers never dared to think about before!
At that moment, some people wanted to lay down their weapons and surrender.

Dong Xi saw that the situation was not good, and immediately shouted: "Xing Daorong must be lying to you, don't trust him easily!"

Xing Daorong heard this and shouted, "If you don't believe me, you can ask your former brothers here, have I ever lied?"

After Xing Daorong finished speaking, Bao Long understood what he meant and immediately shouted, "No!"

This guy was still very useful at the critical moment. The sound of "no" directly caused a burst of cheers.

"no!"

"no!"

Xing Daorong was very satisfied after hearing this, especially when he saw that some soldiers around Dong Xian had laid down their weapons, he felt even more satisfied!
He then shouted again: "You are all Han people, why do you have to fight against each other? People live for ideals or for money. If you die here today, what is the purpose?"

"Put down your weapons, and you will all be my Han people. I will treat you all well and will never harm you!"

As he said this, he added the final straw: "I swear to heaven that if anyone disobeys this, he will be struck by lightning!"

Nowadays, many people are still superstitious.

Xing Daorong said this with such finality, who wouldn't believe it?

They immediately put down their weapons, and no matter how Dong Xi shouted, he could not control the situation.

Xing Daorong shouted, "Dong Xi is harming you all for his own selfish desires and wants you all to join him. Will you agree?"

"Let's kill him together and capture this Dong Xi!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers around Dong Xi instantly turned against him.

They rushed forward and almost cut Dong Xi into pieces. Dong Xi was about to explode with rage!

The remnant soldiers that he had gathered with great difficulty turned against him because of Xing Daorong's few words!
He wanted to fight to the death with Xing Daorong, but he didn't even need to make a move!

Overwhelmed by the crowd, Dong Xi was immediately caught in a tight spot.

Bao Long was filled with admiration.

But he said: "General, you are so powerful. With just one word, you have persuaded all the people around Dong Xi to defect. Why do you need to bring 5,000 soldiers and horses with you? You can come here alone."

Xing Daorong laughed loudly upon hearing this: "You are a good talker, but Dong Xi wants to die, and the others don't want to, so why do this?"

As he said this, Xing Daorong stepped forward, rode his horse from a high position, looked down at Dong Xi who was pinned to the ground, and said, "Isn't it enough that the world is in strife? Why do you still want to do this when you know you have already lost?"

Dong Xi was pressed so hard that his whole body couldn't move, but his mouth could still move. He spat as he heard it, "Pooh!"

"The Lord of Wu has been so kind to me, even if I die, I will never surrender to you, the treacherous people!"

Xing Daorong knew that it would be impossible to persuade a man like Dong Xian to come back.

Everyone has a different understanding of things. When he is trapped in his own truth, no matter how much he talks, it will be in vain.

Xing Daorong took a deep look at Dong Xi, but did not try to persuade him. He just said to Bao Long beside him, "Dong Xi has already decided to die, so let him do as he wishes!"

Bao Long understood immediately and said with a grin, "Don't worry, General. I will kill him myself. He won't feel any pain!"

As he said that, he walked forward and grabbed Dong Xi, wanting to move away from him.

"You traitors! You all must die a miserable death!"

"You betrayed us and attacked Jiangdong! When Marquis Wu comes back, I will kill you all!"

Dong Xian was really unwilling to accept it. Even when he was about to die, he kept cursing, and the curses were very harsh!

However sharp your words may be, they can never hurt others in the slightest.

After cursing a few more times, he heard Bao Long's furious roar from afar: "Damn you, I'm going to kill you, but I'm not going to bother you anymore. Instead, you keep barking like a dog!"

Soon the sound of swords being drawn was heard, and then Dong Xi became silent again. It was obvious that he was going to meet up with Han Dang and Lu Su.

Xing Daorong no longer cared about that thing, but just pacified and recruited the two thousand men in front of him one by one.

These people cannot be sent to Moling at the moment. After all, the Shanyue has not been dealt with yet, so they can only be kept with us for the time being.

However, Xing Daorong was not worried about the soldiers' instability. Judging from the faces of these surrendered soldiers, they all looked much more relaxed and obviously felt that their lives were back on track.

Xing Daorong called over a few people who seemed smart and asked, "I heard that you and Shanyue have been in contact for a long time. Do you know where the Shanyue troops are?"

Someone said, "I know. The Shanyue are lying in ambush in the mountains behind us. They were planning to lure the general into the mountains, and they took the opportunity to attack us."

That's it
Xing Daorong had already expected that Dong Xi was planning to fake a defeat and set up an ambush. After hearing what everyone said, he realized what he was thinking.

After thinking for a while, he said, "The Shanyue people are vulnerable to attack. But if we can't subdue them, they will rebel repeatedly, which is also a headache!"

"In that case, let's end our mission today in one fell swoop and completely eliminate these Shanyue people!"

"Let's go! Follow me into the mountains and see what these Shanyue people want!"
