Seeing Sima Jun performing this way.
Xu He couldn't help but be a little curious.
"Brother Sima, what is written on it?"
While speaking, he reached out and wanted to take the document from Sima Ju.
Listening to Xu He's instinctively shrank back. He regretted that he spread the documents so hasty.
But after reacting.
He could only hand the thing to Xu He with a little hesitation. The content written on the silk book was immediately presented in front of Xu He.
There is one thing written in the document.
That is to persuade them to surrender and list the so-called conditions for surrender.
Cao Cao made it clear in the document.
As long as one of the two, the surrendered person can guarantee that he will not split his military power and allow him to continue to command his old subordinates.
The only rule to be followed is to be organized into the army, and obey orders when needed and follow the Yanzhou army.
This is clearly a condition with hidden evil intentions.
Although the treatment given is very generous and allows one of them to retain his old subordinates, isn’t this just a bad thought to be held in as long as one of them?
Xu He's brows suddenly frowned.
And this is not over yet.
The following line of words is the key.
"The position of Prime Minister of Dongping is vacant. Those who are willing to lead the people to surrender can eliminate the other traitors and rebels and perform this wonderful contribution, and will be promoted to Prime Minister of Dongping from now on!"
As the name suggests.
No matter who surrendered, as long as the other person could be killed, the vacancy of the Prime Minister of Dongping and became the prefect of a county afterwards.
...
"Swish!"
Xu He's face became gloomy with naked eyes. He understood why Sima Ju said that the enemy was vicious with his intentions.
Isn't this a vicious plan?
It is said that it is to surrender, but in fact it is to use these interests in front of him to lure him into fighting and kill each other.
And once you do it.
I'm afraid the army will collapse in an instant, and it doesn't even need to last for another day or two. When will it take action, it will be the day when the hundred thousand troops turn into quicksand.
"snort!"
Xu He immediately threw the document on the table.
He sneered disdainfully: "I want to use these small profits to lure my brothers into rebelling, but you can sit in the city and watch it on the wall."
"When our army is in chaos, we will take advantage of the fisherman again. It is really a good plan to make a decision. But if we are so sinister, will we both be fooled?"
"Brother Sima, what do you think?"
Sima Ju nodded repeatedly.
How could he pretend to be ignorant of a plan that anyone with a discerning eye can see?
"What my brother said is very good. The thief in the city thought he had succeeded in his plan, but he didn't know that you and my brothers had a deep friendship. Our brothers and sisters, especially those of them, could understand?"
"Anyway, no matter what, I will never let you surrender alone. I would rather die than fight with each other in the same room."
"How can my brother's life be used as my personal promotion level?"
...
Sima Ju's statement satisfied Xu He.
His dark face finally calmed down a little. He pointed his finger at the scholar's nose, then turned his head and said to Sima Ju.
"Since my brothers are united, I might as well just dismantle this arrogant dog thief and send him back to the city, so that the rats in the city will understand that we will never surrender alone!"
Xu He said, and then prepared to take over the sword he had placed next to him.
But he hasn't waited for him to do it yet.
Sima Ju had already spoken out to dissuade him.
"My brother, kill him!"
Xu He immediately raised his eyebrows, and turned around immediately, looking at Sima Ju full of vigilance.
"Brother Sima, what do you mean? Could it be that you are still lucky and want to leave room for the Yanzhou army in the city?"
Xu He went to get the sword, which was a test in itself.
As long as Sima Ju and him cut the messenger a few times, even if the two broke up with the city completely, they would be relieved to each other.
However, the Sima surnamed refused now.
It's hard not to be suspicious.
And looking at Xu He's face full of alertness.
Sima Ju could only smile bitterly, and then took a step back to show that he had no other thoughts.
Then he explained: "Now this person's life is in your and my hands. He is dead or alive. It's just a moment. Instead of killing him to vent his anger now, it's better to ask clearly and understand it, and it's not too late to do it again!"
Of course, that's it.
Sima Ju actually has another consideration.
He couldn't let Xu He get the sword. What if this guy pretended to kill the envoy and actually suddenly started to attack himself?
People's hearts are unpredictable.
Although Xu He is full of indignation and extremely irritable, no one knows what he thinks after reading the document.
...
In fact, from the moment we saw the high rewards on the document, the relationship between the two had undergone a subtle change.
But at this moment.
Just barely maintain a fragile decency.
If it were in its prime, then it would not be useful for Cao Cao to tempt them both.
But now the morale of the army is on the front line.
Even if they don’t know when they will collapse, instead of waiting until their morale collapses and nothing is left behind, it is better to use these resources now to seek some benefits for themselves.
After Sima Ju explained, Xu He didn't say anything, but just nodded silently and returned to his seat to sit down.
At this time, I heard Sima Zu ask the scholar.
"It is impossible for us to kill each other. Instead of being whimsical, it is better to sit down openly and talk about my brothers and surrender to your country's governor together. Isn't this more practical?"
However, the scholar just shook his head.
He said frankly without fear: "Before leaving, Mingfu has explained the matter to me."
"One of the first things are the two generals under their command. If they all surrender, how much food and grass will be available in Yanzhou to support so many people, so they can only support half of them!"
"Secondly, since ancient times, there are countless people who have surrendered and rebelled again. If the two generals entered the tent together, if they had rebellious in the future, wouldn't it cause trouble for the Ming Mansion?
Is it?"
"So you can only surrender one of the two great commanders, and the rest of you will not ask!"
The messenger's blunt words.
The two of them were speechless for a moment.
The Yellow Turban Army entangled the people.
But in turn, they were also entangled by refugees.
Isn’t it because they can’t afford to support such a large number of soldiers under their command that they rushed all the way and captured the city one after another without daring to stay at all?
Let’s talk about the latter.
Xu He and Sima Ku asked themselves, even if they surrendered to Cao Cao, they would not loyally surrender in the future.
Most of them stay away from the opportunity, and use their own small abacus. If they have the opportunity, they will rebel again. For them, rebellion is as simple as drinking water.
Therefore, the two points listed by this scholar are quite logical and irrefutable.
...
"You speak so bluntly and don't leave any room for anything. Could it be that you are really not afraid of death?"
When the messenger heard this, he was not afraid but laughed.
He smiled happily and said, "Since he has taken on such an important task, he has put life and death aside. He is just a death, so why are you afraid?"
"But if the two great men want to kill me, please listen to my last words."
The words fell.
He didn't wait for Xu He and Sima to express their opinions.
The scholar was already walking in the tent while talking to himself.
"Prime Minister of Dongping, do you two know what kind of official position this is? This is the prefect of a county!"
