Chapter 21: Wisely Acquisition Nanyang City

Early the next morning, Tang Xian and Zhou Yu stood outside the north gate of Tongxian County. At this moment, there were people standing outside the north gate, and there were no less than 50,000 people. These were all private soldiers of the aristocratic families.

Zhou Yu looked at the 50,000 private soldiers in front of him and said in a deep voice: "You are all my Zhao Guoer, and they are also grassroots. The aristocratic family is so big that they don't regard you as human beings. They use their official power to occupy your fertile land, and they still have to work for them. Do you agree? Chang Gang is injustice now, so he is willing to stay with me and be the king's personal army! Let me go back to the capital with me, kill the evil thieves in law enforcement, and take the head of the thief! Those who don't want to stay can leave, and I will never stop you!"

"Your Highness, I am willing to stay. I have no home anymore. The law enforcement team slaughtered my village. I was forced to join the aristocratic family. I can live a meal every day!"

"Your Highness, do you think this is true? I am irreconcilable with the law enforcement team. If I can kill the law enforcement team, I am willing to stay!"

"Your Highness, I am a rough man. I only want food and clothing. Can I be your personal army three meals a day? Two meals are OK, if you can, I will stay."

"I am a farmer. I can only use hoes. I can kill a few dog thieves. Can I stay?"

Seeing that there were only dozens of loyal families who were loyal to the aristocratic families left, and the rest remained, Zhou Yu was very satisfied and said solemnly: "Become a personal army, you will naturally have three meals a day, and there will be silver sounds to be distributed! Distribute armor and equipment. If you are a successful killing enemy, you will also be promoted to the official position and silver rewards! After joining, you will be your personal army in the future, and you can only be loyal to me!"

After Yu Yu, Zhou Yu ordered the people around him to delete some old ones and ordered each soldier to be given golden armor and a long sword. After the distribution was completed, all 50,000 soldiers knelt on one knee: "Greetings to His Highness the Third Prince!"

"Jin Biaozi! Take these 50,000 soldiers to train!" Tang Xian shouted loudly, and a big man ran to Tang Xian to respectfully say yes, and then took the 50,000 soldiers away.

After a stick of incense, the army set up camp outside Nanyang City. In the tent of the central army's chief general, all the generals held a pre-war meeting here. Li Nan looked at everyone and asked, "Attack Nanyang City, do you have any good plans?"

"The lord of Nanyang has 200,000 defenders, and the lord of the city Lin Gui is also practicing the eighth level of Qi cultivation. This battle is a bit difficult!" A general said.

Deputy Generals left the list: "There are many crossbowmen in Nanyang City. If you want to capture it, killing one thousand enemies will also damage eight hundred of them. It will take a lot of time! You can only find a way to shoot the bow and arrow, and the siege soldiers will be on the ladder."

"We can protect the front row of Dunjia soldiers and slowly advance. After they are fifty feet away from the city wall, they will charge! It will definitely reduce some damage..." said a general.

"I think that the catapult cart will throw tinder oil! After the archers release the rocket arrows, the defenders on the city wall will definitely be worried about the fire and will even be distracted. Then, as Tang Xian did before, he used the cavalry to break through the city gate on the right side!" Zhou Yu said.

Tang Xian stood up and said mysteriously: "No need to do this. I have a plan to make the 200,000 defenders in Nanyang City surrender!"

"So, sir has a clever plan?" Li Nan said in confusion.

Tang Xian nodded and said, "All the generals can order the soldiers to surround them without attacking them! I can just go to Nanyang City alone!"

Zhou Yu asked: "How can you take risks with yourself?"

"It's okay, I have my own trick! When the city gate is wide open, please accept the surrendered army! Do not cause casualties! They are also the sons of the Kingdom of Great Zhao!" Tang Xian said solemnly.

In Nanyang City, in the city lord's mansion, the city lord Lin Gui was walking back and forth. He was holding a letter in his hand, which was sent by a civilian before, and the contents of the letter were Chang Gang's 72 evidence of crimes. Lin Gui knew that it was just someone to frame him. While Lin Gui was thinking, a soldier came in outside the door and said, "My lord, there is a young man in white robe who claims to be Tang Xian of the righteous army. He is asking to see the city lord outside the door!"

"Tang Xian, okay! Let him come in! I'm going to see what he is doing!" Lin Gui put away the envelope and said coldly.

Tang Xian walked into the mansion and looked at the city lord Lin Gui calmly and said: "Tang Xian, I have met City lord Lin!"

"Okay, Tang Xian, you are brave enough! Why do you come here to do it? You are not afraid that I will kill you!" Lin Gui said sternly.

Tang Xian shook his head and said softly: "Lord Lin, this is a difference. Because you did not help the evil, I am here to save you."

"You come to save me, it's ridiculous! Your life is in my hands now! You're still talking wildly, come on! Take him up!" Lin Gui shouted.

"Lord Lin, have you taken the envelope? I believe the law enforcement team has already known about this!" Tang Xian smiled gently and gracefully.

Lin Gui stood up and pointed at Tang Xian, shouting: "Okay, it turns out... you want to frame me! Good, you sinister Tang Xian!"

"No, no, this is the treasure you want on that day, City Lord! City Lord Lin should surrender! You will never survive under the law enforcement team!" Tang Xian waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Tang Xian, what if I handed you over to the law enforcement team now to prove my innocence?" Lin Gui shouted sternly.

"It's useless. I've already reported my name just now. This can be found with the ability of the law enforcement team. And you thought the law enforcement team would not know about it when you covered up for the treasure that day?" Tang Xian looked at the city lord and said with a smile.

Lin Gui couldn't help but lose his soul and asked, "What if I didn't let you in, I will kill you directly outside the door?"

"I am a half-immortal cultivation, no one can kill me here! And I guess that letter is still in your hands. Do you think the law enforcement team is blind? As long as the law enforcement team has a little doubt, you, Lord Lin, will definitely be on the blacklist. Now you are dead, and surrender is a way to survive." Tang Xian shook his head and said with a smile.

Lin Gui's eyes were dull and he said softly: "It's indeed a think tank under the Third Prince! What a step-by-step plan! Sir, if I surrender to the Third Prince, how will the Third Prince treat me?"

"If you have committed a crime and make meritorious contributions, you should be a general in the city lord. If you are always injustice, why should you work hard for him again?" Tang Xian looked at Lin Gui and said solemnly.

"If I surrender, can the third prince treat my soldiers well? These soldiers have been with me for so many years! Lin cannot let them suffer any more!" Lin Gui said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry! They were originally from Zhao, they were soldiers of the Zhou family, and these soldiers were your subordinates. After you surrender, the third prince will not seize your military power, but you need your absolute loyalty! Are you willing?" Tang Xian said seriously.

Lin Gui heard that he could still be treated kindly without seizing military power. Lin Gui solemnly promised: "The third prince is really so kind. If so, I, Lin Gui, would like to follow the third prince to the death! Support the third prince to accomplish success!"

After half a stick of incense, Lin Gui asked the deputy general to lead his troops to kill all the law enforcement team stationed in the city. Then the city gate opened wide and ordered all the soldiers to put down their weapons and go out of the city to surrender. Lin Gui led the important generals to the front of the army in the city gate and knelt down and shouted: "The criminal Lin Gui leads 200,000 soldiers, is willing to surrender to the third prince, and is willing to follow His Highness the Third Prince to the death!"

"Brother Tang, Brother Tang, you are giving me another big gift. These people surrender to me, not to surrender to the righteous army, not to surrender to Zhennan Marquis Li Nan, but to be my private army!"

Retracting his thoughts, Zhou Yu walked to the city gate, helped Lin Gui, the lord of Nanyang City, who was kneeling on one knee, and said solemnly: "Sirs, please get up quickly! Please get up quickly! At the moment of law enforcement, you are deeply aware of the righteousness! You are worthy of being my Great Zhaoerlang! You will immediately join my command and be my own soldiers. I will not take away the military power. I will also ask all the soldiers to go to Beijing with me to serve the king, kill the unjustly rebellious ministers! I will return the bright world of my Great Zhao Kingdom!"

Lin Gui and 200,000 soldiers shouted: "As per the will of the third prince, the king will serve the king and kill the rebels!

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!"
