The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 827

With the full-scale offensive launched by the Shu Han army, Zhang Cheng's new army will be hard to resist after all.

Only more than an hour had passed since the battle between the two sides, and Zhang Cheng's new army suffered more than two-thirds of casualties, which shows that their side suffered heavy losses.These remaining troops of more than 1000 people were finally tightly surrounded by the Shu Han army on a small hill, making a final and futile resistance.

Facing the army that is now in dire straits, morale has completely plummeted to its lowest point.Even the commanders who directed the battle had already suffered a large number of casualties. Even Liuzan's left shoulder was shot in the back, and he was still bleeding just now.It can be seen how unfavorable the situation has developed to the new army - it can even be said that one leg of these still alive people has stepped into the abyss of death.

Zhang Cheng didn't ask for comments on Liu Zan this time, his heart should be said to be charitable, so he didn't want to see their Jiangdong disciples killed until not a single one remained.But Zhang Cheng did so, it can indeed be seen that he also has a weak side.

And Zhang Cheng was indeed not stupid, he showed enough composure.He immediately sent envoys to the Shu Han army.This is a safe approach. Now there are battlefields everywhere in front of us. Even the envoys may be killed on the spot by the enemy, so we must send more people.

But Zhang Cheng's cleverness lies in that he knows that Deng Ai will not show mercy to them, so it is impossible for the envoys sent this time to find Deng Ai again, and they went to ask Gai Meng to surrender.

Zhang Cheng's move should be said to be quite clever.His people finally saw Gai Meng.Gai Meng did not personally participate in the battle this time, the front combat troops were handed over to Xiong Ping to command, and he himself just sat in the rear.

Therefore, Zhang Cheng's envoy was actually caught by Xiong Ping, and he was allowed to meet Gai Meng after he explained his intention to Xiong Ping's people.

Gai Meng knew the current situation very well. With his current location and the fact that the sun was shining brightly, he could see the situation on the battlefield clearly with his naked eyes.

So of course Gai Meng knew that Zhang Cheng's envoy's request to surrender should not be nonsense or a trick.The opponent's army is absolutely desperate now.

However, Gai Meng did not immediately agree to Zhang Cheng's request for surrender.He brought his guards closer to the edge of the battlefield, and he could see the situation on the hill more clearly.

It can be said that Zhang Cheng's new army suffered heavy losses, and now they are retreating steadily under the attack of the Shu Han army, almost entering a deadlock.

After seeing the situation clearly, Gai Meng immediately led his troops to find Deng Ai.He is going to discuss with Deng Ai about accepting the surrender of Zhang Cheng's troops.Now that Zhang Cheng had already decided to surrender, and they had already achieved the victory they wanted, there was no need to go so far.

It is better for this battle to end sooner.

At this time, Deng Ai was resting in the rear.Facing Liuzan's desperate breakout last night, he tried his best to block the enemy's assault troops time and time again.Therefore, by now, he was already exhausted, and he could only recover his strength later.The battle ahead is now handed over to his deputy general Zhou Tao. After all, now that victory is in sight, Deng Ai has nothing to worry about.

Gai Meng soon saw Deng Ai who was resting on the ground.Deng Ai should have not closed his eyes for two full nights, plus he is the supreme commander of the army, his nerves have been tense all the time, his physical strength has been exhausted, and his eyes are now covered with bloodshot eyes.Although his face was clean, it looked greasy and looked quite tired.

Seeing Gai Meng's sudden appearance, Deng Ai couldn't help feeling very strange.The current war is still going on, why did Gai Meng leave the army here?
Deng Ai immediately got up from the ground and greeted Gai fiercely.

After asking Gai Meng to sit on the ground together, he immediately asked, "General Gai, why did you come to see me at this time?"

Gai Meng knew that now was not the time to beat around the bush, not to mention that Deng Ai's military rank was much lower than him, so he said directly: "Lieutenant Deng, let me speak directly."

Deng Ai nodded.

"Zhang Cheng sent someone to ask me to surrender. Now the leader of this battle is your army. What I want to know is why Zhang Cheng asked me to surrender. He also sent an envoy to your side Yet?"

Deng Ai subconsciously wants to answer yes.But when he thought about it carefully, something was wrong, and he asked, "Did Zhang Cheng ask you to surrender just now?"

Gai Meng nodded, and said: "Yes. I was afraid that there might be fraud. I went to the battlefield to check the situation just now. Zhang Cheng's men are indeed desperate now. They shouldn't be playing tricks on me."

Deng Ai grunted and nodded, as if he had thought of something, he said, "To tell the truth, General Gai, in fact, last night, Zhang Cheng sent an envoy to my side to ask for surrender."

Now, Ge Meng probably understood a lot of things in his heart, frowned, and asked, "And then?"

Deng Ai smiled, and replied very calmly: "Then I didn't agree."

"What?" Although he was already prepared for Deng Ai's answer in his heart, Gai Meng couldn't help being excited, and said loudly, "Lieutenant Deng, why didn't you agree with Zhang Cheng's request to surrender? If you Agree, then we don't have to fight in today's big battle, no matter whether it is the local or our side, there will be no more casualties!"

Gai Meng was really angry at Deng Ai's actions in his heart, and as their reinforcement, Deng Ai didn't come to discuss with him when he made such a decision?

Deng Ai's actions somewhat hurt Gai Meng's self-esteem.

Gai Meng couldn't help thinking maliciously in his heart that before he came to discuss this matter with Deng Ai, he should have withdrawn his cavalry from the battlefield first, so as not to fight.At that time, let's see what you, Deng Ai, can do!
Deng Ai originally didn't want to tell others about his rejection of Zhang Cheng's surrender.But seeing Gai Meng so excited now, he didn't want to tear himself apart with Gai Meng on the spot, so he had to tell the reason.

After Gai Meng finished listening, he suddenly jumped up from the ground, his face flushed immediately, and he acted as if he was a little more excited than before.

In fact, Gai Meng has already fallen into a struggle in his heart.

The enemy came to surrender, but he refused. This is absolutely against morality, and he will be cast aside in the future.This Deng Ai really spared no effort in doing things.

But the problem that makes Gai Meng difficult is that this matter is related to the eldest son Liu Chan, and the direction Deng Ai is considering should be right.In the future, after the Shu Han army took over the entire territory of Jiangdong, would the prince still have to spend a lot of energy dealing with the power of the four major families?

Jingzhou has already been baptized by the flames of war, and Jiangdong in the future should not and cannot be turbulent again.Otherwise, the Shu Han army would definitely take care of such a huge territory at the same time.

Gai Meng thought for a while, but Deng Ai didn't speak, quietly waiting for Gai Meng to give him a reply.

In the end, Ge Meng said with a cold face: "Okay, this matter will follow what you said! But, you must ensure that the less people know about this matter, the better!"

Deng Ai nodded and said, "I promise!"

Gai Meng nodded, turned around and left, Deng Ai bowed his hands to Gai Meng to be rude, and sent Gai Meng away.

Gai Meng returned to his army as quickly as possible, killed Zhang Cheng's envoy, and then personally commanded the army to attack the hill, completely annihilating Zhang Cheng's new army.

Zhang Cheng did not escape the fate of death in the end, and was killed in the melee between the two armies, becoming the first scribe who died in the battle between Jiangdong and Shuhan.

As for leaving praise, his fate is not much better.In the end, he met Xiong Ping, who was supported by the "famous general killer", and he cut off an arm on the horse, and then his whole body was chopped into meat by the Shu Han soldiers who rushed up, becoming another famous enemy of Xiong Ping's fallen men. Will be the number of places.

As for Liuzan's eldest son, Liulue, he did not escape his life as Zhang Cheng hoped, leaving the last flesh and blood for Liuzan's family.After all, he couldn't escape Deng Ai's claws, because he had promised Gai Meng that Zhang Cheng's request for surrender would not be leaked.Of course, he couldn't let Liu Lue go.

Liu Lue was beheaded by Deng Ai's men that night.

Since then, almost all the armies formed by the four major families of the four Wu counties, together with their soldiers, have died.

Since then, the four major families have become depressed.
