Chapter 549 Su Yan Persuades to Surrender
Actually, when Su Yan told Qu Mao the battle plan the day before, when she mentioned that she was going to the front line to surrender in person, Qu Mao was very opposed to it, and in the end, Qu Mao accompanied Su Yan to the front line to surrender.
When Su Yan was about to go to the front line, the two had a little dispute over this matter, but Qu Mao directly pushed Su Yan back.
Su Yan is the third princess of the original Liusu Principality, and it is in the fundamental interests of Yizhen's territory for her to go to the front to recruit the remaining enemy troops.
But in Qu Mao's eyes, Su Yan has been by her side since there were only a few people in Yizhen's territory. She is no longer an npc in a game, but a relative in Qu Mao's mind.
In addition, Qu Mao always feels that no matter how powerful Su Yan is, she is still a little sister under the age of 18, no matter how strong Su Yan's administrative ability is, Qu Mao always feels uncomfortable for such a delicate little sister to go to the battlefield. suitable.
But Su Yan insisted on persuading the enemy to surrender, and Qu Mao could only accompany her in person. Anyway, Qu Mao still had three cheating summoning skills by his side.
Inform the guards around him to go to the lord's hut to collect 100 fourth-tier guards and 50 fifth-tier palace guards. Qu Mao accompanied Su Yan and walked towards the fisherman's village. Kong Ming wanted to accompany Su Yan, but Qu Mao Mao strongly refused.
Out of the east gate of Yi Town, after walking less than 500 meters, he was stopped by the territory army of Yi Town.
An army hero quickly came over and scolded the soldiers who stopped Su Yan and Qu Mao, and said, "This is the lord and the internal affairs officer of our territory in Yi Town, who were invited by Master Zhao Pan to recruit the enemy."
Then, the army hero said to Su Yan and Qu Mao: "My lord, Su Yan, my subordinate is the army hero Li Shijie..."
Su Yan interrupted directly: "Lord Zhao Pan informed me that the enemy army has been besieged, and there are only 70,000 to 80,000 remnants left. I came here to persuade you to surrender, and take me to the front line."
Li Shijie nodded, and said: "Yes, Master Su Yan, Master Zhao Pan has already arranged, please come here, sir.
The army originally arranged a team of fifth-tier heavy cavalry to guard you, but now..." Li Shijie glanced at the fifth-tier palace guards behind Qu Mao and Su Yan.
Qu Mao checked the attributes of this hero. It turned out that he was one of the 35 heroes recruited at one time after the third batch of invasion fleet war with the Anti-Yi Village Alliance. His name was Li Shijie. His current level was level 55, and his aptitude was excellent. class.
Su Yan said: "The lord's cabin has its own guards, and the soldiers of the army should make other arrangements."
Qu Mao said: "Isn't Zhao Pan holding a sixth-rank champion knight? Call the first team here to protect Lord Su Yan's safety, and secondly, to show the strength of our army to the enemy."
Li Shijie quickly cupped his hands and said, "Yes, my lord!"
Following Su Yan to the front of the formation, Qu Mao saw Su Yan explaining a few words to the army heroes around him, and then the army soldiers in front of the formation began to shout together: "His Royal Highness Su Yan, the former third princess of the Principality of Liusu, please count on Earl Zhang Zhiyong answer!"
Qu Mao looked in astonishment at Su Yan who was beside him making such a move, but he didn't say anything. Since he promised to accompany Su Yan to the front line, Su Yan would naturally play the leading role. It doesn't matter.
Since Su Yan is singing, then follow Su Yan's wishes and arrangements completely.
But what Qu Mao never expected was that in less than ten minutes, the torches in the opposite army began to light up, and a general in yellow armor and riding a bay red horse was escorted by four cavalrymen. Walking towards Su Yan's army formation slowly.
Qu Mao asked the army hero beside him in astonishment: "Gruve, the enemy actually transported mounts to the island?"
The army hero named Grove Desa, who was also one of the 35 heroes Qu Mao recruited at one time, said respectfully: "Yes, my lord. Although the enemy's cavalry did not go into battle because it was too dark, but Master Zhao Pan estimated that the enemy transported at least 1,000 cavalry to land on our Island of Yi."
Qu Mao nodded, and was about to signal the sixth-tier champion knight and the fifth-tier court guard to stop the five knights, but found that the five were not carrying weapons, so he looked at Su Yan.
Su Yan nodded to Qu Mao, and whispered: "My lord, no need, it's fine!"
Around ten meters in front of Su Yan, the five knights took off their helmets one after another, held them in front of their chests with one hand, stroked their chests with the other hand, and bowed to salute.
After the salute, the general in the yellow armor at the front raised his head and said, "His Royal Highness, Third Princess, I, Zhang Zhiyong, Zhang Family of Zhicheng, see Your Highness Princess!
Please forgive me for your rudeness. After all, I am wearing armor and cannot fully salute. Please forgive me, Your Highness.
His Royal Highness the Princess was famous throughout the territory for her closeness to the people in the past, but I never thought that the Princess would end up here. Please forgive me for not coming to see you at the first time. "
Su Yan slightly raised her hand and said, "Excuse me, Earl Zhang is too polite.
Zhang Zhiyong bowed again and said: "Your Highness the Third Princess doesn't know something, I really don't know that Her Highness the Third Princess is still alive and in exile overseas.
If I had known this earlier, I would have searched for Her Highness the Third Princess at all costs and tried my best to provide convenience for Her Highness the Third Princess. "
Su Yan smiled and said: "Uncle Zhang, some things have passed, we don't need to mention them again, it doesn't make much sense.
Before my seventh brother Su Cheng was murdered, the Lord of Su Cheng advertised to the world, didn't Earl Zhang know about it? But Earl Zhang did nothing.
Of course, I didn’t come here tonight to question Earl Zhang. If you want to punish Earl Zhang, I’ll just wave my troops and kill you all.
But God has the virtue of good life. The soldiers under your command are also good citizens of the country. I can’t bear to see them slaughtered. It’s the rebels who stole the country, not these soldiers, so I’m here tonight to give you a way out.
Remembering you and your family, even when my father was alive, I was respectful and respectful, and there was no disrespect to the royal family.
When the rebels usurped the country, the Zhang family did not immediately help the evildoers.
So this princess will make an exception tonight and allow you, Earl Zhang, to surrender to me just like ordinary soldiers, and I will not punish you for the crime of disrespect. "
Earl Zhang Zhiyong, the commander of the enemy army, still held the helmet in his hand, frowned, and said: "Your Highness, what you said is reasonable, but after all, I was entrusted by the king of the new dynasty to lead the army to attack the enemy. Even if you find that Your Highness the Third Princess is here, you should retreat How can you surrender without a fight?
Even if I don’t think about myself, I should think about my family members far away in Zhicheng. "
Su Yan smiled and said: "Earl Zhang still thinks he can go back? This time the army attacked my territory, did Earl Zhang know how much you have lost now?
Are you waiting for your rear team at sea to catch up? To be honest, your rear fleet of 200 warships and 80,000 soldiers have all been captured by my navy. "
Zhang Zhiyong frowned, and then said: "Your Highness, I really don't know that this is your territory in exile.
If I knew it was the territory of Her Highness the Princess, my subordinates would not be able to dissuade the king of the new dynasty from invading, but I would definitely not take this mission. For Her Highness the Third Princess, this is indeed a misunderstanding.
However, I lead the new king’s 200,000 army out, and currently only 30,000 have been defeated, and 100,000 backup will land in a few hours. You can’t completely give up resistance just because of your one-sided words, the third princess. Thousands of family members are still in Zhicheng.
I dare to ask Your Highness the Princess to show mercy and allow me to think about it for one night. "
Su Yan sneered and said: "Mr. Zhang, what you said is indeed reasonable, but do you think I need to give you a night? You can't go back, and your family can't be kept. This princess won't follow me for the time being." You have said more, and you can think clearly yourself if you think about it.
But this princess can be sure that if you don’t surrender, you won’t be able to survive this hurdle; as far as your family is concerned, if you don’t surrender, I don’t know whether the thief will deal with your family now, but after this princess returns to the country, naturally The first thing is to wipe out your family.
You are the Zhang family of Zhicheng. In the past, my father and king never treated your family badly. When my seventh brother was in trouble, I did not see your family’s loyalty. Today you met this princess, and you don’t know what to do. Why should I tolerate your family after I return to the country? ? "
Zhang Zhiyong's face turned red, and after Su Yan finished cursing, he said: "Please calm down, Your Royal Highness, if I can return to Zhicheng, I will definitely restrain the whole family, and use the strength of the whole family to provide assistance to Your Highness the Princess."
Su Yan smiled and said: "Okay, according to the law of the Puppet Dynasty, even if this princess is soft-hearted and lets you go back, the Puppet Dynasty will not tolerate you.
You have to think about it for one night, nothing more than waiting for the arrival of your army rear team. In fact, our navy is also on the way to withdraw troops, and we will be able to return in about an hour. This princess is a good person, and I will give you two hours to think about it, or Collect information about your rear fleet, or you count the losses of the landing troops, it's up to you.
This princess gave you the way, if you don’t go, don’t blame you if your family is destroyed after this princess returns to the country in the future. "
After finishing speaking, Su Yan said loudly to the army hero Grove Desa beside her: "Gruve, keep an eye on the enemy army. In two hours, we will attack and destroy the enemy by force and wipe them out!"
"Yes, my lord!" Grove DeSar replied loudly.
"Triumph!" The marine soldiers in front of the formation also roared in unison, scaring Zhang Zhiyong and his four guards on the opposite side to turn pale.
Qu Mao did not communicate with the generals who commanded the first batch of invasion fleets in Liuwang Principality. He only urged Su Yan to turn her horse's head and leave the front line after Su Yan finished speaking. , The fourth-tier guards surrounded Su Yan and walked behind the army line.
"Su Yan, do you think he will surrender in two hours?" Qu Mao asked suspiciously.
Su Yan said with a smile: "My lord, the Zhang family in Zhicheng is a well-known wall-to-wall family. Judging the situation is their strong point. He will definitely surrender. Don't worry, my lord."
