my wife is mulan

Wang De said to the building general Lan Yun: "General Lan, send someone to tell the city gate guard that I, as the envoy of the general, have come to see Guo Sheng!"

Lan Yun nodded, and told a tooth master: "Take a few people to the city gate and tell the gate guard to send someone to report!"

"Yes, Master!"

Yazhu led two cavalrymen as guards and galloped towards the city gate. The people of Yan Kingdom who were kneeling on the ground retreated to make way for a passage.

Lord Ya reined in his horse and stopped outside the moat, raised his head and shouted: "Brothers in the Yan army, we are not here to fight.

The General of the Eastern Army sent an envoy to seek an audience with Shang Shuling, General Guo, please go and report! "

Guo Sheng, who had already received the news, had come to the city wall at this time and heard the voice of Lord Ya of Wei Jun under the city.

Guo Sheng went to the side of the female wall and supported the wall, shouting down: "This general is Guo Sheng, dare to ask where your envoy is? Does he dare to speak up?"

Wang De, who was in the rear, heard Guo Sheng's voice, and said to Lan Yun: "General Lan, we are here to persuade you to surrender, not to fight. If the Yan army does not harm you, please don't act rashly, okay? "

"Wang Zhonglang, don't worry, the general will know the severity!"

"Good!" Wang De nodded, holding his scepter and beating his horse, trotting towards the city.

"The lower official Wei Zhengdong General, the governor of Youliao and other military forces, and the governor of Youzhou, Zhao Shijun, worked in the Zhonglang Wang De and met General Guo!"

Since he was an envoy and he followed the rules of etiquette, Guo Sheng naturally didn't want to show his face. Everyone wants face, and Guo Sheng was no exception. He clasped his fists and said loudly, "Wang Zhonglang is too polite. I don't know that Wang Zhonglang is here in Longcheng. What's the matter?"

"The lower official came to meet Shang Shuling on the order of Zhao Shijun. I have something to discuss with Shang Shuling. I wonder if Shang Shuling can let the lower official go to the city to discuss in detail?" Wang De looked up at Guo Sheng and shouted.

Guo Sheng was silent for a while, and asked, "Why didn't Zhao Junsheng come, but only sent you, a middle school doctor from a small school?"

Wang De said: "The envoy wanted to come to see Shang Shuling in person, but because the army is now stationed in danger, one is to deter the barbarians Goguryeo and prevent them from spying on the land of Liaodong; the other is to avoid direct conflict with Shang Shuling. , if my family envoy comes here, he must be accompanied by a large army, and he is suspected of showing off his might, my family envoy just doesn't want to cause Shang Shuling's misunderstanding!"

Hearing this, Guo Sheng turned his head to look at the soldiers and generals of the Yan army around him, and saw that these people were looking at him nervously. He knew in his heart that the soldiers and civilians of the Yan army had long since lost the courage to fight to the death with the Wei army, and their kings left them and ran away. , who else could he fight for?If the war can be resolved through negotiation, why bother to increase the number of murders?

"Now that your army is arrayed outside the city, please forgive me for not being able to open the city gate! May I ask Wang Zhonglang if he dares to enter the city on a hanging basket to discuss in detail?" Guo Sheng asked aloud after a moment of silence.

Wang De laughed loudly: "The lower official came here with sincerity at the order of the envoy, and he has no malice towards Shang Shuling and the soldiers and civilians inside and outside the city. Why don't you dare?"

"Okay! Guo Sheng slapped the wall and immediately ordered: "Come here, put a hanging basket and invite Wang Zhonglang to enter the city!" "

Under Guo Sheng's order, a huge hanging basket was lowered. Wang De took only one entourage into the hanging basket. De and his entourage pulled up the city wall.

Guo Shengming prepared tea on the tower, and he sat face to face with Wang De.

"Wang Zhonglang, my country of Yan is located in a barren and cold place in the northeast, there is nothing to entertain Wang Zhonglang, only this ginseng tea is a local specialty, please drink ginseng tea!"

"Thank you General!"

The two were drinking tea, Guo Sheng thought that Wang De was here to persuade him to surrender, so he stopped his mouth first: "If Wang Zhonglang is here to persuade Guo to surrender, please don't speak respectfully, Zhonglang understands etiquette, it doesn't seem like The other Wei people are barbaric, and Guo does not want to kill Zhonglang!"

Wang De put down the tea with a smile and said: "If thousands of people in Longcheng can be saved from being slaughtered, and the people here can no longer suffer from the war, so what if Wang dedicates his head to the general?"

Guo Sheng held the teacup with a trembling hand.

Wang De went on to say: "The lower officials are well aware of the general's loyalty to Yan, and they are unwilling to surrender without a fight. But now that the king of Yan has fled to Goguryeo, the soldiers of Yan's army have no fighting spirit, their morale is low, and the people have been abandoned. If you don’t have a sense of belonging to the Yan Kingdom, how can the general resist the attack of our Youzhou army if he doesn’t get their support?”

"Since the rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Jin Dynasty, the barbarians in the north have taken advantage of the situation. Five Hu and sixteen countries have conquered each other successively. For more than a hundred years, the population has dropped sharply, the culture has retrogressed, the etiquette has collapsed, the people's livelihood has declined, and the people of Li have suffered. In other words, people with lofty ideals like the general should take it as their duty to end the troubled times and benefit the world. The unification of the world is the general trend. The general is loyal to the king.

Can't be kind to the people?Today, the lives of the soldiers and civilians in Longcheng depend entirely on the general's choice. If the general takes a step back, the sea and the sky will be brighter, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians will be able to live and work in peace and contentment. , the general can win the reputation of loyalty and bravery, but this reputation is piled up with the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city, how can the general bear it? "

Guo Sheng was silent for a while after hearing these words, and finally said: "Zhonglang's words are reasonable, and Guo is almost persuaded, but...Guo is a Han, how can he surrender? Tuoba barbarians? If so, how will you go underground to meet your ancestors after you die? If Mr. Guo doesn’t kill Zhonglang today, go back and tell Zhao Junsheng that Mr. Guo is waiting for him here!”

Wang De pondered for a while, waved his hands to the general of the Yan army who came to see off the guests, and said to Guo Sheng: "The general's integrity is admired by the lower officials, and the lower officials can understand it. The general does not have to reject people thousands of miles away. Things can still be discussed! If the general and the officers under his command don’t want to surrender to the court, they can choose to surrender to our great general; if they don’t want to surrender to our great general, they can also hand over their military power and official seal. The purpose of my great general is not to make the entire Yan Kingdom submit, because we all know that even if a person submits, his heart does not necessarily surrender. As long as this goal can be achieved, everything can be discussed!"

Guo Sheng was quite surprised and surprised when he heard this. This Zhao Junsheng has such a broad mind and tolerance?He pondered for a while, and shouted to the left and right: "Come here, go to the general's residence and prepare a banquet. I am going to entertain Wang Zhonglang!"

Chapter 574 Rage!

Wang De sent his entourage out of the city and returned to the main formation outside the city to tell Lan Yun, the building general, to camp outside the city and wait. He was invited by Guo Sheng to go to Guo's mansion for a banquet.

Although King Feng Hong of Yan left, he did not take the entire court with him, almost left most of the court in Longcheng, since he left all the courtiers in Longcheng, burned the palace, and only took away his children, inner palace and clan. From the facts, this person is an extremely irresponsible person.

Guo Sheng is now the leading figure in Dragon City, and every move of Guo's mansion has attracted much attention in Dragon City. The news that Guo Sheng hosted Wang De in his own mansion spread like wildfire, and soon attracted the attention of all civil and military ministers in Dragon City. Highly concerned, the ministers with a little weight all sent people to stay near Guo's mansion, hoping to get first-hand information.

At night, the Guo mansion was brightly lit up and down, but it didn't look very lively, because the Guo mansion was heavily guarded from inside to outside, with one post at every three steps and one sentry at every five steps.

Outside the lobby, there are many soldiers, and above the lobby, Guo Sheng and Wang De sit as guests and hosts.

"Please!"

"Please!"

The two drank to each other. After drinking for three rounds, Guo Sheng put down the wine cup and asked: "The whole Yan Kingdom, from the ministers to the soldiers, most of them are Han Chinese. I'm afraid I can't do it if I wait to serve the Xianbei barbarians. In this way, there will be no face to see the ancestors after death, so don’t talk about serving the Wei State. The resistance is too great. The old man is more interested in serving the General Zhao, and it is easier to achieve. I wonder if Wang Zhonglang can explain it to the old man. I am confused, how should I serve General Zhao, and what rules does General Zhao have?"

Wang Zhonglang was energetic for a while, straightened his back and said with a serious face: "General and Longcheng officials and generals, if they choose to serve as our general, they can only serve as officials and generals in Youzhou; if they don't want to serve, my general will not force them. You can disarm and return to the fields, and civil servants can return to the countryside. My general guarantees that no one will make trouble. For those who serve, my general will appoint officials or military positions according to their reputation and ability!"

"As for the generals of the Yan Army, after the situation in Liaodong and Liaoxi is stabilized, my general will reorganize. If someone does not want to continue to serve in the army, he can choose to retire. The general's mansion will issue severance pay to every soldier who chooses to retire. family, but not to gather in the mountains and forests to cause disaster; the generals who stay to accept the reorganization will be treated the same as other generals in Youzhou, and their families will be exempted from corvee and taxes, and they will still receive military pay every month, which will be paid once a quarter!"

Speaking of this, Wang De looked at Guo Sheng and said: "If the general has other requests, you can make a request. If the subordinate officials can make decisions, they can answer on the spot. If they cannot make decisions, the subordinate officials will also send someone to report to the general. At the latest There will be news in three or four days!"

Guo Sheng pondered for a while and said to Wang De: "Wang Zhonglang, this matter is very important. I need to consult the attitudes of the ministers and the main generals under his command. It may take a few days to consider! Please Wang Zhonglang stay at the house tonight. Tomorrow The old man sent someone to send Wang Zhonglang out of the city, and asked Wang Zhonglang to wait outside the city for a few days, I wonder if it is possible?"

Wang Dedao: "The general is sincere, and the officials are convinced. Within five days, the officials will be on call outside the city!"

"Good! Come, please fill this cup!"

"General please!"

Early the next morning, Guo Shengsheng opened the city gate and sent Wang De out of the city. ---- Fast update, no anti-theft ---

Afterwards, Guo Sheng summoned the ministers and officials of Yan State who were still in Longcheng and the military generals under his command to discuss the matter. Because the palace had been set ablaze by Feng Hong, and the fire had not been extinguished yet, Guo Sheng could only choose the place where the matter was discussed. Set up in your own home.

For the next three days, there was a lot of quarrels in the main hall of Guo Sheng's house. Some people thought that there was a difference between serving the Northern Wei court and serving Zhao Junsheng, but there was no difference.

The difference is that after serving the Northern Wei court, there is a lot of room for career advancement, but there is little room for career advancement after joining Zhao Junsheng. After all, Zhao Junsheng is only a prince.

There is no difference in Zhao Junsheng

He is also a courtier of the Northern Wei Dynasty. What is the difference between serving Zhao Junsheng and serving the Northern Wei Dynasty? They both serve the Xianbei people, but there is a Zhao Junsheng in the middle.

Therefore, the focus of debate among ministers and officials is whether to serve Zhao Junsheng or the Northern Wei court. The advantage of voting for Zhao Junsheng is that it can be expected, because Zhao Junsheng himself can make the decision and be directly appointed; but there is no guarantee for serving the Northern Wei court. Zhao Junsheng couldn't intervene, when they arrived in Pingcheng, who would know them, the former officials of the Yan Kingdom?Whether they can get official appointments is really a matter of opinion. Maybe some people don't like them and suggest that the emperor kill them.

On the morning of the fourth day, Guo Sheng sent people out of the city to meet Wang De, and asked Wang De to come to the city again for talks.

"Among the ministers, there are five people who want to go to Pingcheng, and others are willing to join the old man in serving General Zhao. For these five people, I wonder if General Zhao can find a position for them in Pingcheng?" Guo Sheng asked.
