The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 615
Xiong Ping's men left first.Then, because Jia Qing's 1000 men could not keep up with the cavalry, they could only set off as the second part of the team.Of course, I hope that Jia Qing's team can rush to the battlefield in time to join the battle.

Meng Xi then became the chief general of the camp.

After Meng Xi rested for half a day, his physical strength was finally replenished.After a rapid march, I stayed up all night, and the situation was very critical at that time, and the spirit was in a state of excitement, so it was very easy for people to feel tired.

Now, Meng Xi, who was in high spirits, began to figure out how to take down these subdued enemy soldiers.After thinking about it for a while, he felt that according to the general situation, it would be more or less the case to forcibly recruit ordinary soldiers and prevent them from escaping.

However, those senior generals are the most troublesome part.Those people are knowledgeable and cultured, have status and care about face, most of them have the idea of ​​loyalty to the monarch and patriotism, and they are often very stubborn.Meng Xi wanted to subdue them in a short time, but I'm afraid it would not be an easy task.

But capture the thief first and capture the king first. Last night, Meng Xi subdued Jia Qing first, and then joined Jia Qing's two village chiefs to surrender with Jia Qing. It was simply an excellent deal of buy one get two free!Therefore, Meng Xi quickly set his mind on Xu Xiang.

So, Meng Xi immediately sent someone to escort Xu Xiang over.

Xu Xiang's current appearance really looked a bit embarrassed.Although the ropes that were originally bound on his body had already been untied, the originally gorgeous brocade clothes were now covered with mud and lost their original color.His face was also covered with mud, and his hair was originally well tied, but now it became disheveled, like a beggar on the side of the road.

When Meng Xi saw Xu Xiang's appearance, it was quite different from the appearance when they met last night. Presumably this guy must have suffered a lot when he was escorted.In Meng Xi's heart, she immediately felt a little sympathetic to Xu Xiang. Sun Quan's confidant has fallen to such a point.

However, Meng Xi did not invite Xu Xiang to a seat, coughed lightly, and said to Xu Xiang: "General Xu, what happened last night has wronged you."

Xu Xiang looked angrily at Meng Xi sitting upright behind the desk that should belong to him, but his expression seemed so high-spirited.

Xu Xiang didn't salute Meng Xi either, but just stood still in the hall and didn't speak.In fact, Xu Xiang had already heard about the situation of his army from the guards guarding him. His army was settled by Xiong Ping and Meng Xi without bloodshed.

Especially this Meng Xi in front of him, he was responsible for almost all the events last night, how could he still have a good impression of Meng Xi now?

Seeing Xu Xiang's performance like this, Meng Xi wasn't angry at all, Xu Xiang's performance was already in his expectation.

Meng Xi smiled, cupped his hands to Xu Xiang and said, "General Xu, I invited you over this time because I have something to talk to you about."

Xu Xiang sneered and said, "Why, do you still feel dissatisfied after surrendering my army, and want to persuade me to surrender to you and help you attack Jiangdong?"

Meng Xi couldn't help but groaned, this Xu Xiang still had a foresight, and he guessed his mind right away.

Meng Xi couldn't help but smiled awkwardly, and said sincerely: "To tell you the truth, General Xu, this school captain really meant that. It's just that I don't know what you, General Xu, are thinking right now?"

Xu Xiang suddenly snorted coldly, fixed his eyes on Meng Xi, and said very bluntly: "Tell you, if you want me to surrender, unless the sky is falling!"

Meng Xi continued to persuade: "General Xu, why are you doing this? My lord Liu Xuande is an orthodox nobleman of the Han Dynasty, and His Royal Highness is a person of great benevolence and righteousness. He will definitely treat the general well."

Xu Xiang burst out laughing when he heard this, and said: "Liu Xuande is just a weaver of mats and shoes, how dare he call himself a nobleman of the Han Dynasty? Liu Adou is under adult age, but he is really just a naughty boy, how dare he pretend to be a A man of benevolence and righteousness?"

Meng Xi frowned, this Xu Xiang is really quite arrogant, how dare to say that Liu Bei is the eldest son Liu Chan!
However, Meng Xi remained patient and tried not to get angry.Because in Meng Xi's view, since this Xu Xiang is Sun Quan's confidant, if he can be subdued, it will certainly be of some help to the son in the future.

Therefore, Meng Xi continued to persuade: "General Xu, please be careful. My lord is a well-known family member of the Han family, and His Majesty the emperor as far away as Xuchang will call him uncle. How dare you be here?" How can I insult my lord so lightly here? My Royal Highness, although young, has already been able to lead the army to fight in the north and south, first defeating many generals of Cao Wei, and then defeating your Jiangdong army in Jingzhou. What's more, my family The son governs the army strictly, and has never killed a prisoner without authorization. If such a person cannot be regarded as a benevolent person, then is there any benevolent person in this world?"

Xu Xiang's career is destined to know some inside stories that others don't know better than anyone else.Therefore, if he can't explain the matter of Liu Bei and Liu Chan's father and son clearly, then he is definitely talking nonsense.

Therefore, Xu Xiang's old face suddenly became a little feverish.But because his face was so dirty, he couldn't see the redness at all.

Xu Xiang still wanted to save face, and immediately snorted again, and said: "In short, my lord treats me Xu Xiang so well, it is absolutely impossible for me to surrender to that kid Liu Adou!"

Seeing this Xu Xiang insulting Liu Chan repeatedly, Meng Xi immediately became angry.He couldn't help but slapped a chapter on the table in front of him, and scolded: "Xu Xiang wasted you and read so many books of sages, and you don't even know what it means to be loyal and righteous, what it means to be loyal to the emperor and patriotism, and what is more. I don’t know what is the general trend of the world!”

Then, with a flick of Meng Xi's hand, two guards stepped forward to restrain Xu Xiang, and then pushed him down.Then, Meng Xi heard Ding Ye yelling and cursing outside the tent.Obviously, Xu Xiang has provoked Ding Ye somewhere.However, under the current situation, Xu Xiang must be the one who suffers.

It was only then that Meng Xi realized why that Xu Xiang looked disheartened now.I'm afraid that's what Ding Ye did on purpose.

Meng Xi sighed softly, and didn't care about Ding Ye's abuse of prisoners.In fact, in Meng Xi's opinion, it is already very good to keep their lives alive, and he is not without the kindness of the prince.

After Meng Xi thought about it for a while, he ordered Ding Ye to send someone to General Sima Wangming.

In fact, it should be said that this Wang Ming is more forceful than Xu Xiang.This can be seen from the scene where Meng Xi captured the two of them on the spot last night: at that time Xu Xiang was actually somewhat moved by Meng Xi's lies, and expressed his gratitude to Liu Chan for valuing him.But Wang Ming's performance is very tough, he is a diehard member of Sun Quan.

Therefore, after the guards escorted Wang Ming up, before Meng Xi could speak to persuade him to surrender, he immediately cursed at Meng Xi.

Of course, Wang Ming already knew at this time that all his troops had been wiped out.And that was what made him so angry.Of course, Wang Ming was actually very annoyed in his heart, secretly hated why his army was so unsatisfactory, and was dealt with by others just like this!
When Meng Xi saw this Wang Ming, there was really no room for communication, and he knew that it was impossible for this person to surrender.

However, this Wang Ming's bad attitude made Meng Xi, who was already upset because of Xu Xiang's matter, even worse.So, Meng Xi immediately called Ding Ye in, and asked Ding Ye to slap Wang Ming ten times without showing mercy.

As the clear and crisp sound of crackling fell down, Wang Ming's cheek left a clear palm print, which was red and swollen like a monkey's butt.

However, this Ding Ye's attack was really ruthless, hitting with all his strength.Maybe it was because it was too red and swollen. After the beating, Wang Ming spit out a mouthful of blood, with three teeth mixed in it.Even speaking, it has become slurred.

However, it should be said that this Wang Ming still has a lot of backbone.He was already like this in time, and his eyes were still staring at Meng Xi angrily, without any intention of shrinking back.

This Wang Ming's performance once again made Meng Xi confirm that this person would not be afraid of any threats from him.In other words, it was simply impossible for him to subdue this Wang Ming.

Meng Xi had no choice but to ask Ding Ye to escort Wang Ming down again.

Then, Meng Xi interrogated several village chiefs one after another.The behavior of these people was similar to that of Wang Ming, and they all strongly rejected Meng Xi's offer to surrender.

Meng Xi is helpless, it seems that Jiangdong people do not lack loyal people!He had no choice but to let Ding Ye take them all back and watch them again.

It was late at night, and the sky looked a little gloomy. A dark cloud covered the corner of the moon, which was not very bright, making the color of the moon change from silvery white to blood red.

Meng Xi, Ding Ye, and a group of guards escorted Xu Xiang to stand in a dark corner of the camp.At this moment, Xu Xiang's whole body was tied up, and a ball was stuffed in his mouth, so it was impossible for him to start speaking.

At this moment, two figures suddenly jumped out of a tent not far ahead.The light of the torches jumping in the distance can slightly shine on the faces of the two of them.The light in Xu Xiang's eyes didn't necessarily light up, one of the two was obviously Wang Ming, his military commander!The other person Xu Xiang didn't know, but it seemed that he was just an ordinary soldier.

Wang Ming was actually rescued at this time!
I only heard the soldier say to Wang Ming: "Master Wang, Colonel Jia Qing surrendered to the Jingzhou Army under the pressure of General Xu Xiang. Before he left, he ordered the villain to rescue you, please After you go back, you must report Xu Xiang's defection to the lord, and let him destroy Xu Xiang's three clans!"

Xu Xiang's heart was shocked, and his face suddenly turned as pale as a dead person.He knew that this was definitely a trap set by Meng Xi for Wang Ming to force him to surrender to them!
Wang Ming cupped his hands and said viciously to the soldier: "I already knew about the defection of Xu Xiang and Hu Zong last night. Thank you Captain Jia for your help. After I go back, I will definitely deal with the matter exactly as it was." The whole story was reported to the lord. When will your Jia Xiaowei come back to Jiangdong?"

The soldier cupped his hands and said: "Lieutenant Jia is now following that Xiong Ping to attack. However, he should lead the troops to escape on the way. Please rest assured, Mr. Wang."

Wang Ming smiled slightly, bowed his hands to the soldier, then turned around and bid farewell to the soldier, and quickly disappeared into the night.
