Chapter 1331 Lingzhou North Gate
In the middle of the night, the Qin army camped.
There were guards standing guard outside the tent, and Lin Chuzheng came in a hurry with Chen Jing.
It was so late at night, and before he could get close, he was naturally stopped by the guards, "The king has rested, and the general is staying behind."
Lin Chu looked at the big tent and said anxiously: "I have urgent military information, please inform the king."
"These" two guards looked at each other with embarrassed expressions. To be honest, they didn't have the courage to disturb the monarch's sleep.
One of them said: "General Lin, your Majesty has just rested for a while. If there is anything you can't talk about until dawn."
"The matter is urgent. If it is too late, things may change."
Lin Chu became even more anxious and was about to say something else when Xiao Yuan's voice came from inside the tent: "Let him in."
The guard responded and stepped aside.
"Wait a moment." Lin Chu gestured to Chen Jing, then quickly walked inside.
Xiao Yuan had indeed just rested for a short time. When Lin Chu came in, he was still sitting by the bed, a little confused.
The latter quickly knelt down and said, "I will be punished by death for disturbing the king's rest."
"Tell me something." Xiao Yuan spoke concisely and to the point.
Lin Chu said: "Chen Jing has returned to camp and is waiting outside the tent."
"What?" After hearing this, Xiao Yuan suddenly lost all sleep, "Invite him in quickly."
As he spoke, he stood up and went out in person to greet him.
Chen Jing, a man who has been wandering on the edge of life and death all year round, has made great contributions to the military intelligence of the Qin army, and has made many contributions to the Qin state. Of course, Xiao Yuan attaches great importance to him.
Lin Chu also stood up, quickly picked up the coat on the shelf, followed Xiao Yuan, and put it on for him.
After leaving the camp, Xiao Yuan couldn't help shouting: "Chen Jing."
Seeing him, Chen Jing's nose suddenly felt sore, his eyes turned red, and he felt a strong urge to cry. He knelt down and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty."
Yes, he has been lurking in the Spirit Kingdom for many years. He has a home he cannot return to and a family he cannot recognize. He walks on thin ice every day and thinks about the day he returns home all the time. You can imagine how he felt when he saw Xiao Yuan.
Xiao Yuan quickly stepped forward, helped him up with both hands, straightened his clothes, and said gently: "You have been wronged."
"Your Majesty, you have betrayed your humble ministers." Chen Jing couldn't help but wipe his tears with his sleeves.
"Quick, let's talk inside the tent." Xiao Yuan pulled his wrist.
When the three of them entered the camp, Xiao Yuan naturally exchanged some greetings, and finally asked: "At this time, the entire city of Lingzhou should be under martial law. Your status in Lingguo is an important position in the Li camp, how can you get out of the city?"
Chen Jing said: "Your Majesty, I returned to camp late at night for this very reason."
"Oh?" Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows.
Chen Jing adjusted his excitement to go home and calmed down: "The guard at the north gate of Lingzhou is named Miao Wei. This person has been friends with me for many years. Today's persuasion to surrender has been effective. However, he seems to have some concerns. Failed to reply in time."
"Didn't I let you lie dormant completely, waiting for Lingzhou to recover? Why are you taking such risks?" Xiao Yuan asked back: "Even if you are friends with Miao Wei, he is a spiritual general. If something happens, you will die without a burial place. Is it possible? Don’t you understand!”
The monarch must use power to control his subordinates.
Chen Jing was moved and said seriously: "Although Lingzhou can be broken, it still requires the sacrifice of our soldiers. If I can exchange for the recovery of Lingzhou with my life, it doesn't matter if I die."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan took a deep breath and praised sincerely: "With this general under my command in Great Qin, there is no need to worry about our country not being strong."
"I'm scared." Chen Jingyi lowered his head and said, "But Your Majesty, after trying to persuade me to surrender, I think Miao Wei is definitely someone we can win over."
"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded slowly: "Since he sent you out of the city, it means that he has the intention to surrender, and his so-called concerns are nothing more than the promise of our Qin State."
"Your Majesty is wise." Chen Jingdao said: "In my opinion, Your Majesty may write a letter, granting him an official position and protecting the lives of his people. If it is written by Your Majesty, it will undoubtedly calm his mind. And if the North Gate can be opened,
Then our soldiers can quickly recover Lingzhou."
Xiao Yuan did not answer the question immediately, but changed the topic and said: "Who else is around Miao Wei? I am asking about those who can speak and have a certain right to speak."
Chen Jing was relatively clear on this point. He thought about it and said, "There is an aide named Feng Xin who usually advises Miao Wei and is deeply trusted by him. There is also a partial general named Yuan Bichang."
After understanding this, Xiao Yuan thought about it and said: "If Miao Wei is given an official position, the people below him will definitely be unwilling. If we want to open the north gate, Yuan Bichang and Feng Xin are also key."
While talking, he also sat behind the case, unfolded a piece of silk book, picked up the brush and dipped it in ink, and said while writing: "Especially this Feng Xin, a staff member, always said a few words around Miao Wei
, if he is not allowed to hold an official position, he may say bad things, so if you give him some promises, the matter will be more stable."
"And this happened quickly. You left from the north gate. With the methods of Lingguo's Liying camp, it would take less than two days for you to become suspicious and tell Miao Wei that he didn't have much time. If he surrendered, he and his subordinates would
Everyone, I will treat you kindly."
This is a grasp of human nature. After saying this, Xiao Yuan almost finished writing the letter and handed it to Lin Chudao: "Chen Jing doesn't need to take any more risks. Just send the secret message."
"Yes." Lin Chu took it respectfully with both hands.
This letter was written by Xiao Yuan to Miao Wei. It is not difficult to get it to the latter.
It's noon, Lingzhou North Gate.
There were two secret letters sent, one from Xiao Yuan to promise an official position, and one from Chen Jing to persuade Miao Wei to make a decision early to avoid changes if it was too late.
At this time, the latter was discussing countermeasures with Feng Xin. He did not dare to tell Yuan Bichang easily about his surrender, but his staff did ask for their opinions.
After receiving the secret letter, Miao Wei couldn't wait to pull it out. After reading it, he couldn't help but look at Feng Xin: "Letter from King Qin."
"Ah?" The latter's heart moved and he asked subconsciously: "General, I don't know what King Qin said in his letter."
"The King of Qin personally wrote that after the north gate is opened, I am promised to be General Anton." Miao Wei said: "There are also Mr. and Yuan Bichang, who are promised to be engaged in Lingzhou and Sima of another department respectively."
This General Anton, in terms of title, was a step above Miao Wei's current level.
After handing the letter to Feng Xin, he quickly opened another one.
Feng Xin read it quickly and was obviously excited. Even his tone of voice changed a little: "General, such a good opportunity cannot be missed. Once it is postponed, not only King Qin will be angry, but also those in Si Li Camp will be angry.
If something unexpected happens, then the big thing will be over."
"Lingguo has been destroyed. With this letter and the relationship between the general and Chen Jing, it should be cut off."
