Chapter 1223: Persuade to surrender, centrifugal(2/2)

"Not to mention that Feng Yong is so ruthless..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wei Yan.

But seeing him sneer:

"Do you want to persuade me to surrender?"

Guo Xun did not hide anything and said calmly: "Yes."

"You no longer have a foothold in the Han Kingdom. Even if the Liu family doesn't kill you, do you think you still have the dignity to go back?"

In the past two years of getting along with Wei Yan, Guo Xun, who has always had ulterior motives, has long been familiar with his temper.

This is also the reason why he has been waiting here for Wei Yan.

Because Guo Xun knew that with Wei Yan's character, he would not be able to admit his failure so easily.

He will definitely try his best to save the situation before completely losing hope.

Guo Xun even suspected that even when he was completely desperate, Wei Yan might not look back.

Of course, no matter what Wei Yan would do, Taifu had a plan to deal with it.

But relatively speaking, the more unwilling Wei Yan is and the more he wants to restore the situation, the more beneficial it will be to Wei Yan.

Guo heard Wei Yan hate and say:

"Since our army has an engineering camp, you should know that the eldest son must not stay for a long time. After I break the city and recover Shangdang, I will return to Chang'an to plead guilty to the emperor."

When Guo Xun heard Wei Yan's words, he was both happy and regretful.

Fortunately, Wei Yan did what he expected.

Unfortunately, Wei Yan seems unwilling to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side.

Guo Xun is still making his last effort:

"Junhou, you can be considered an old man in the army, can't you still see the current situation clearly?"

"As long as the prince is willing to surrender to the Wei Dynasty, I am willing to hold a banquet and apologize to the prince in public."

"Feng Yong has no capacity for people, but the Wei Dynasty has long heard of the reputation of its lords and lords for their bravery, and is thirsty for talents!"

"You barking people, you still want to persuade me to surrender to the thieves?" Wei Yan shouted, pointing at Guo Xun and said, "What I want is your dog's life!"

When Guo Xun saw Wei Yan like this, he sighed in his heart, but there was a calm look on his face:

"My life is humble. As long as you are willing to surrender to me, the Wei Dynasty, what if I give it to you?"

Wei Yan, who was originally furious, was slightly stunned when he heard Guo Xun's words, and then sneered:

"You know how humble you are, so why do you want to persuade me to surrender to the thieves?"

Guo Xun sighed: "It seems that the monarch is really unwilling to surrender to the Wei Dynasty?"

"Just wait until I capture the eldest son and see who wants to surrender!"

After Wei Yan gritted his teeth and said this, he stopped talking nonsense with Guo Xun and turned around to leave.

Across the moat, watching Wei Yan go away, Guo Xun's expression changed from calm to calm, and at the same time it was mixed with some unknown and complicated meanings.

But in the end, he also turned his horse's head and walked towards the eldest son city.

After returning to the army, Wei Yan immediately ordered:

"Someone's coming!"

"Junhou?"

"Let Wen Shi from the engineering camp come and see me!"

"Here!"

After a while, Wenshi hurried over:

"Your Majesty, do you have something to call me?"

Wei Yan nodded and asked:

"How long does it take for the engineering battalion to set up stone cannons to attack the city?"

Wenshi was stunned for a moment, then immediately replied:

"Your Majesty, we don't have enough baggage now, so we have to wait for the baggage from behind..."

Wei Yan said sternly: "I only ask you when you can build stone cannons to attack the city!"

Wenshi swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "It will take five days at the earliest."

It is no less than 150 miles from Gaodu to Changzi, and it will take two days at the earliest for the baggage to arrive. However, during these two days, the engineering battalion can make preparations in advance.

Although the remaining three days were a bit rushed, fortunately the engineering battalion was not like ordinary army craftsmen who had to work day and night.

With the help of other craftsmen in the army and the escort team led by Wang Han, there should be no problem in constructing several temporary stone cannons within three days.

The reason why they are temporary stone cannons is naturally because they are substandard products.

But so what?

Anyway, if we strictly follow the standards, even if the Central Guards are here, the engineering battalion will not be able to fulfill this requirement.

"Three days!"

Wei Yan stared at Wen Shi, "I will use three days to clear all obstacles under the eldest son's city."

"In three days, your engineering battalion, no matter what, will build stone cannons to cooperate with the army in attacking the city!"

Wenshi was shocked and said quickly:

"Junhou, five days is already the shortest period we can achieve with our best efforts. If it takes three days, the time..."

"Then we will handle it according to military law!" Wei Yan waved his hand, not giving Wen Shi a chance to defend himself, "Hurry and prepare!"

Wen Shi opened his mouth, and seeing Wei Yan's unquestionable expression, he could only sigh: "Here!"

Back in the engineering camp, Wang Han came over immediately:

"how?"

Wenshi sighed: "General Wang, be prepared."

Wang Han was startled: "What do you mean?"

Wenshi looked at Wang Han with a sad face and repeated Wei Yan's instructions.

After Wang Han heard this, his face suddenly became angry:

"Based on our current situation, the best way is to defend Gaoping Pass and secure the main route from Hedong into Shangdang, waiting for reinforcements from the imperial court."

"What General Zuo Hussar is doing now is completely out of impulse. At this time, he actually wants our engineering battalion to help him turn things around?"

Wen Shi smiled bitterly: "The master cannot be angry and raise an army, and the general cannot be angry and go to war. What Guo Xun did may have touched the back of General Zuo Hussar."

"That's why General Zuo Hussar became furious and insisted on capturing his eldest son."

Wang Han thought for a while and comforted:

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, we still have three days. Let's make preparations first. If we can do it well, everything will be easy."

"If you don't do well, I will accompany you to see General Zuo Hussar..."

Having said this, Wang Han gritted his teeth and said, "The engineering battalion was sent by the Central Protectorate to help General Zuo Hussar capture Gaodu City."

"It stands to reason that Gaodu City has been captured and the engineering battalion's mission has been completed."

"We are following here at this time, but we are just doing our best to do our best, and we are not obeying the control of General Zuo Hussar."

Having said this, Wang Han's eyes lit up and he said urgently:

"If he wants to regain control of the engineering camp, he must obtain the consent of the Central Protectorate!"

Upon hearing this, Wenshi's originally somewhat defeated expression regained its energy:

"What General Wang said is true!"

According to the original plan, after capturing Gaodu City, the engineering battalion should prepare to return to Chang'an.

Unexpectedly, the situation in Shangdang suddenly changed. Wei Yan hurriedly led the army back, and the engineering battalion was also brought over.

King Wen and King Wen didn't think there was anything wrong.

If Wei Yan hadn't pushed too hard, neither of them thought about it, and the engineering battalion mission would have been completed long ago.

So whether Wei Yan can still control the engineering camp now, there is an explanation here.

Wei Yan wants to bypass the Central Protectorate and march on the engineering battalion. He is really desperate. The worst is possible!

ps: Some book friends are still wondering whether Sima Yi will be made a dumpling, so they sent another picture of the Shangdang situation.

Pay attention, Sima and his son divided their forces into two groups to invade Shangdang from Hanoi. Both routes are in their hands, so how could they be made dumplings?

In the worst case scenario, you can run directly back to Hanoi.
Chapter completed!
