Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 472 Zhang Liao Surrenders
"General Bao, let's not talk about this anymore."

Zhou Tai felt that what Bao Long said was a bit too much.

Especially since he was a surrendered general, he could especially understand Zhang Liao's thoughts, so he tried to persuade him.

Seeing that Bao Long remained silent and seemed somewhat dissatisfied, Zhou Tai consoled him again, "Besides, if he surrenders early, wouldn't it make people think that he is treacherous?"

"It is because of this difficulty that we know that he is a loyal and righteous person!"

These words touched Bao Long's heart.

indeed
It is precisely because he refused to surrender that we can see that Zhang Liao was a loyal and righteous man.

At the moment, he did not know how to refute, so he said in a muffled voice: "That being said, it has been too long, and our general has advised him several times, but he still hesitates. I just think it is not worth it."

Zhou Tai understood Bao Long's position.

I just feel that since we are on the road and the general's family is accompanying us, it would be a bad idea to create unnecessary trouble.

Then he said, "The general's wife is here with us, so don't talk nonsense anymore!"

After bringing up Xing Daorong's wife, Bao Long naturally didn't say much. He just nodded glumly and let it go.

Although Bao Long did not cause trouble for Zhang Liao, he did not expect that Zhang Liao would come to him on his own.

When they were near Chang'an, Zhang Liao found Bao Long and bowed to him, saying, "General Bao, I apologize for disturbing you. I just want to ask for your help."

Although Bao Long thought Zhang Liao was not very straightforward, he took the initiative to approach him and spoke kindly, as if he wanted to help. He couldn't just drive the man away without listening.

Then he asked, "I wonder what Wenyuan wants to say?"

Take this scene for example, Zhang Liao was being humble to Bao Long. That would have been absolutely unimaginable before the time travel.

Just considering Bao Long's current status, no one thinks there is anything wrong with it.

Zhang Liao bowed and said, "After we enter Chang'an City, could you take me to see General Xing first?"

Now I know I'm in a hurry!

Bao Long sneered in his heart, thinking that Zhang Liao was anxious now because Chang'an had been breached and he knew that Cao was doomed to fail.

To be honest, deep down, I was quite disdainful of Zhang Liao.

But even though I was disdainful, I could not withstand the general's attention!
He could only nod in agreement, but didn't say much.
After entering Chang'an, Bao Long led Zhang Liao to look for Xing Daorong.

In fact, Zhang Liao did not know the process of the Battle of Chang'an. He only knew that Xing Daorong had made great contributions. The capture of Chang'an and Tongguan was closely related to Xing Daorong.

If it weren't for him
It seemed that Liu Bei was about to be defeated by Sima Yi.

In the end, it was Xing Daorong who turned the tide and finally conquered Chang'an in one battle.

Zhang Liao came to ask Xing Daorong what was going on and how he took Chang'an, but when he saw Xing Daorong, he found someone standing next to him!
Who?
It’s Zhong Yao!

As I said, Zhong Yao is from the Yingchuan family!

The Yingchuan family is the Cao family’s base!

At the moment, Zhong Yao is following Xing Daorong, and he obviously looks like he has surrendered. What does this mean?
Doesn’t this mean that the Yingchuan family is also beginning to lean towards Liu Bei?

That means that the Cao family’s base has begun to collapse!

This was a fatal blow to Cao, and Zhang Liao knew it very well.
But Zhang Liao saw Zhong Yao's shocked expression, which was exactly what Xing Daorong wanted to see!

How could he be convinced without any emotional upheavals?
Zhong Yao, who was standing nearby, had already heard Xing Daorong say that he wanted to capture Zhang Liao, so he naturally cooperated fully at this moment.

When he saw Zhang Liao, he stepped forward and said, "Wenyuan, long time no see," without waiting for Xing Daorong to speak.

It's been a long time since we last met! Zhang Liao didn't expect that Zhong Yao, a member of the Yingchuan family, would turn against him without hesitation after the defeat in Chang'an.

At this moment, he was extremely surprised and only responded mechanically: "Mr. Yuan Chang, I didn't expect to see you!"

Zhang Liao was a military man after all, and his speaking skills were not as good as those of scholars.

He spoke directly, which also showed his surprise at Zhong Yao's appearance here.

Zhong Yao's self-control improved a lot, and his facial expression did not change at all.

But he sighed and said, "Wenyuan, Lord Xuande is the one chosen by heaven. The Cao family replaced the Han Dynasty, which is against heaven. You can't hesitate and surrender as soon as possible."

Good guy!
I just said that Zhong Yao's self-cultivation was much better than Zhang Liao's, but I didn't expect that he would be so direct when he spoke.

I just asked you to persuade them to surrender, I didn't ask you to force them to surrender!
He just goes right in and attacks with his ultimate skill, saying that fate is on Liu Bei's side. Is that okay?
Xing Daorong didn't expect Zhong Yao to speak so directly. He was stunned for a moment. Even with his ability, he couldn't react directly.

Just as he was thinking about how to get back at this, he saw Zhang Liao pondering for a moment, then bowing to him and saying, "Thank you for your kindness, General. You have repeatedly asked me to give up the dark and join the light, but I have been reluctant to surrender!"

"I don't want to waste any more time, I beg you, General, not to give up!"

it is good!
Very good!
Xing Daorong didn't expect that Zhong Yao's words would be so effective.

He had tried to persuade Zhang Liao many times but to no avail. But Zhong Yao's words solved the problem!

Xing Daorong was immediately overjoyed and said, "Wenyuan! Wenyuan!"

"I've been looking forward to you day and night, and finally you're here!"

"Now it's good. With you joining us, we are even more powerful and can definitely unify the world!"

Xing Daorong was overjoyed when he heard this and was about to go forward to help Zhang Liao up.

Zhong Yao also had a smile on his face.

In fact, he really didn't know how to talk to Zhang Liao in order to make him surrender, so he came straight to the point and just said it directly!

Unexpectedly, this actually worked after I said it!

Zhang Liao was very considerate. As soon as he said that, he surrendered immediately!
Naturally, Zhong Yao was delighted.

Anyway.
This is also a credit to yourself, isn't it?
Xing Daorong wanted to help Zhang Liao up, but failed. He thought Zhang Liao was a real man and was about to exert force with his hands, but Zhang Liao seemed to have something to say and just refused to get up.

Seeing this, Xing Daorong did not force it.

To make someone surrender, especially a great general like Zhang Liao, he must be convinced wholeheartedly and not have any doubts in his mind.

Xing Daorong half squatted down and asked, "Wenyuan, do you still have any concerns?"

Zhang Liao then said, "In the past, Lord Cao was very kind to me. Although I don't want to waste my time, I don't want to use my weapons against him either!"

"I only wish to guard the border and serve my country."

That's it!

This is not something that is unacceptable.

After all, Xing Daorong has always been very humane.

When they destroyed Wu, didn't they ask Zhou Tai to fight?
Besides, after unifying the country, it is natural to restore the former glory of the Han Dynasty, and sending troops to the border is only a matter of time.

He agreed immediately without any hesitation.
