Chapter 73 Section 6 self-touch

On the night of Wang Xing's death, Wang Yi sat quietly under Kunyang City all night, like a solidified statue, silent in the summer night and starlight.No one knew what he was thinking that night, but everyone found that he had aged a lot that night. The Kunyang offensive and defensive battle entered the sixth day, and the Han army suddenly discovered that the siege of officers and soldiers began to become crazy.There are cloud chariots in the sky, assault vehicles on the ground, and tunnels dug underground. Charge wherever you can charge, and dig holes where you can make holes.The arrows were like a torrential rain, pouring into Kunyang City non-stop, as if all the arrows in the world, at all times, fell on the land of less than four square kilometers in Kunyang City.People in the city can't go out at all. If they have to fetch water for cooking, they have to remove the door panel and carry it on their backs before they dare to go to the well to fetch water.

The officers and soldiers attacked day and night, wave after wave, continuous and endless.The Han army was on the verge of collapse, both mentally and physically.Officers and soldiers can be rotated in batches to ensure adequate rest.However, the soldiers of the Han army could only turn around continuously, and they did not dare to relax for a moment.Extreme fatigue, coupled with extreme tension, pushed the soldiers of the Han army into deep despair. They seemed to be in the city of Sodom, facing the wrath of God, with nowhere to escape.However, they are not reconciled, why do we have to suffer?

Wang Feng saw that if he continued to resist, he would no longer have trouble with the officers and soldiers, but himself, so he said to Wang Chang: "The city will be destroyed sooner or later, it is better to surrender early." Wang Chang had no choice but to agree. Hearing that Kunyang was about to surrender, Wang Yi ordered the army to retreat three li.Wang Feng rode out alone and went straight into the officer's barracks.Wang Yi boasted to the utmost, and ordered the million-strong army to move away from a ten-mile long road. Every time Wang Feng took a step, the million-strong army responded with a loud cry - surrender!

Wang Feng holds the letter of surrender in his hand, looks at his feet, and walks fast. After walking for ten miles, his clothes are already wet with sweat.Entering the tent of the Chinese army, I saw that there had been a grand banquet, and all the officers, soldiers and generals attended.After all, Wang Feng came from a reckless background and had never seen much of the world. Today, seeing the grandeur and luxury of the royal family with his own eyes, his expression unconsciously reveals envy and humility. Wang Feng walked forward on his knees and handed over the surrender letter.Wang Yi looked at it, noncommittal, pointed to the far end seat, and said, "Sit."

Under the great pressure, Wang Feng became very low, as low as the dust, but he was happy in his heart, and flowers bloomed from the dust.After surrendering, it's over.He was liberated, free, and finally no longer had to fight in vain, and finally no longer had to suffer in purgatory.The officers, soldiers, and generals were all beaming with joy. They had already suffered enough from the siege, and it was best for Kunyang to surrender voluntarily.Yan You was so excited that he burst into tears. Now the army can finally march into Wancheng, Wancheng is saved, and Xinchao is saved. After Wang Feng took his seat, Wang Yi asked from afar, "What is your current occupation?"

Wang Feng humbly replied: "I live in Chengguo Shanggong." As soon as the words came out, I couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.On today's occasion, it seemed so absurd and lacking in confidence to report one's official title. Wang Yi laughed loudly and said: "So, you are the Shanggong, and your position is still higher than mine. I should surrender to you." Everyone laughed.Wang Feng was so embarrassed that he didn't even dare to say it. Wang Yi lazily asked again, "What's your name?" Wang Feng said: "My minister's surname is Wang and Feng." After finishing speaking, he had an idea, and added, "Fortunately, I have the same surname as Da Sikong, maybe we were still in the same family five hundred years ago."

All the generals murmured, secretly scolding Wang Feng for superfluous, this extra sentence will probably mess up the matter.You know, Wang Yi has always been proud of his aristocratic blood, and Wang Feng's clinging to him so ignorantly is breaking Wang Yi's biggest taboo, he is simply ashamed of being with the untouchables. Wang Yi let out a cry of surprise, suddenly became interested, and immediately said: "Really? Then we have to arrange the family tree." After speaking, he looked at Wang Feng jokingly, and said: "Why don't I report the family first. My Wang family is the descendant of the ancient Yellow Emperor, more than 500 years ago? The eighth grandson of the Yellow Emperor, Yushun, is one of the five emperors. After Yushun, Yuman, King Wu of Zhou was named Chenhou. Chenwan, the thirteenth grandson of Guiman , was Qi Huangong's Qing. Chen Wan's eleventh grandson Tianhe, called Qi Wang. Passed to Qi Wang Tianjian, who was destroyed by Qin. Xiang Yu raised an army and named Tian An, the grandson of Tianjian, as the King of Jibei. Tian An lost his country, and the people of Qi still called him It was the Wang family, so the surname was changed to Wang. Tian Anzun’s grandson, Wang He, was the embroidered clothing censor during Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, that is, the great-grandfather of today’s son and my subordinates.”

After Wang Yi finished speaking, he drank a full glass, looked at Wang Feng arrogantly, and said, "Then, where is your ancestor?" Wang Fengwan didn't expect that Wang Yi would be more truthful than what he said.The previous generations of Wang Fengzu were all low-class commoners, and they had nothing to boast about, and there was no way to check further up.Sudden questioned by Wang Yi, Wang Feng could only answer in embarrassment: "The ministers have been grassroots for generations, how dare you compare with the nobles of the imperial family like Da Sikong." Wang Yi snorted coldly, needless to say.He said again, "Since you surrendered, what are your demands?"

Wang Feng said: "I just want to live, how dare I ask for it again!" Wang Yi stood up, turned his back, and said: "Surrender is not allowed, go back and continue fighting! As a general, you should die on the battlefield, and I will fulfill your honor!" After speaking, he waved his long sleeves and saw off the guests. The generals were stunned when they heard the words, and their disappointment was beyond words.This is like playing mahjong. The opponent has already let go, but you can't win, and you have to fiddle with yourself.But practice has repeatedly proved that if you fail to catch the gun, there will be consequences!

The generals were unwilling to reconcile, they really didn't want to risk their lives to attack the city again, so the Duke asked Yan You to come forward and persuade Wang Yi to withdraw his order.Yan You reluctantly went, Wang Yi heard Yan You's intention, smiled wryly and said, "I don't want to accept the surrender, don't you even find it hard to understand?" Yan You said: "The old minister can probably guess one or two." As long as Yang surrendered one day earlier, I would definitely agree. But one day later, twelve hours later, everything was too late. Wang Xing died, the emperor's only son died, and he died in my army. Died at the hands of the Han army. The emperor wanted to make Wang Xing the crown prince, but he died. You say, how should I explain to the emperor? I can't argue with a hundred words, and I can't redeem myself." After finishing speaking, Wang Yi bowed his head After a long silence, he continued: "I didn't dare to inform the emperor of Wang Xing's death, let alone send his body back to Chang'an. It's not that I don't want to accept surrender, but I dare not accept surrender! For the current plan, We can only slaughter the Han army, avenge Wang Xing, change Kunyang into Kunling, and bury Wang Xing on the spot, just like the ritual of a famous general who died on the battlefield in ancient times, so that he can hope to be forgiven by the emperor." Wang Yi's tone became more and more serious. With a deep, desolate smile, he said, "One day, ho, it's just one day late."

Yan You has been involved with Wang Mang for a long time, and his understanding of Wang Mang is not inferior to that of Wang Yi.Wang Mang's son, it's fine for him to kill himself, but it's absolutely impossible for someone else to kill him.Especially Wang Yi, whose status is extremely sensitive. Almost all the military power of the empire is in his hands, so he is easily suspected by Wang Mang. In addition, Wang Yi is only thirty-nine years old, and he is a potential heir to the imperial throne. The first successor, Wang Xing, died in his army, which made Wang Mang even more fanciful in a dark and sinister direction.With Wang Mang's suspicious character, once Wang Yi was surrendered, Wang Mang would definitely think that Wang Yi and the Han army had a tacit understanding, and even deliberately conspired to kill Wang Xing.It's not that Wang Yi didn't want to accept the surrender, but he really didn't dare.Yan You looked at Wang Yi, his eyes were full of understanding and sympathy. Although they had different views on the military, they were ministers of a dynasty after all, and being with the king was like being with a tiger. Both of them had the most personal feelings. Besides, Wang Feng refused to surrender, wanted to cry but had no tears, and returned to Kunyang with a heart of humiliation and despair. After passing the ten-mile long road, millions of officers and soldiers continued to clamor—do not surrender!Do not surrender!Wang Feng's mind was empty, as if he had never heard of it, he entered the city alone, surrounded by Wang Chang and others, asking anxiously.Wang Feng shook his head and said: "I will never die, and Wang Yi will never give up." Hearing this, everyone cried with their heads in their arms.Wang Chang reluctantly appeased everyone, saying: "Don't forget, we still have hope." Everyone raised their tearful eyes and looked towards the east together.There, there are Liu Xiu and the other twelve knights, will they return?If so, how will they return?
