"Whether to spare him or not, it's not up to us now, it all depends on what the Jin army thinks."
"Don't forget that Li Dalian has joined the Jin army now. As long as the Jin army generals are willing to protect him, we really can't touch him."
"How can this be?"
"He is a traitor, and the generals of the Jin army are not stupid. How can he offend the entire Di Qin just because of him?"
"You don't want Xuzhou City even if it's a good thing?"
It is normal for Xin Shu to have such doubts. To ordinary people, Xuzhou City is of course much more important than Li Dalian alone.
Here Fu Fei has promised to bring Xuzhou City to submit to the Jin Dynasty. With such a great thing, Fu Fei's wish to save Li Dalian's life is a very reasonable request.
There is absolutely no possibility of denial.
but……
"I'm afraid that the Jin army doesn't believe that we are wholeheartedly surrendering." Fu Fei murmured.
The status of Xuzhou City is really important and extraordinary.
Now, just because Fu Fei has become the territory of the Jin army in one thought, such a good thing is really too light.
It was too easy to get.
There is an old saying that cheap goods are not good, and this is the truth.
Is there a free lunch in the world?
of course not!
However, did the Jin army lose anything under Xuzhou City?
nor!
Not only was there no loss, but he even easily won Fu Fei's promise and signed a formal covenant.
Everything is obtained so easily that one cannot help but suspect that there is fraud involved.
Once the Jin army starts to cooperate with Fu Fei with this intention, then the possibility of retaining Li Dalian is extremely high.
"What's that?"
"If they don't believe it, we'll just start another fight and have a fight!"
"Be careful!"
Xin Shu had already set up a posture and looked like he really wanted to confront the Jin army. Fu Fei was so angry with him that he quickly dismissed his absurd idea.
Xin Shu was stunned: "General, am I wrong?"
"We surrendered sincerely and opened the city gate without using a single soldier. We have reached this point. If they still don't believe it, what can we do?"
"The only option is to fight!"
"Whoever is beaten will have to admit it!" Xin Shu blushed and was still unconvinced.
In his simple concept, the so-called negotiations are all fake and of no use at all. If you want to gain the initiative and control, you must rely on real swords and real guns.
Apart from this, all other methods are false, false and unstable.
Once the other party changes his mind, all previous efforts will be in vain.
Furthermore, can Xuzhou really not be able to fight?
Not necessarily.
"General, I have just seen it. Although the Jin army is large in number, there are also many soldiers who surrendered from Yecheng. Once the two sides start fighting, these people will never sacrifice their lives for the Jin army."
"If there is a fight, we may not be defeated."
Fu Fei glanced at him and said with a smile: "Okay, you know how to use your brain."
Xin Shu smiled sheepishly. He did have a bad habit, that is, he didn't like to use his brain before doing things.
It’s not that I don’t know how to use my brain at all, it’s just that I don’t have the IQ level.
If he was completely brainless, Fu Fei would not reuse him.
To put it bluntly, among the many subordinates, Xin Shu is relatively easy to use. The most important thing is that he is also very loyal. This is the most precious quality for a general.
"But don't forget that our current situation is not that favorable. Now that Chang'an has fallen into the hands of Yao Qiang, we are so far away from Chang'an that we can't take care of it at all. We are already too busy to take care of ourselves. Where can we go?"
Can we still go to war with the Jin army?"
"It's not like you haven't seen the situation in Yecheng."
"We surrender to the Jin Dynasty for our own sake and as a last resort."
"Why!"
"How did we end up in this situation?" Xin Shu's sigh was not Fu Fei's.
The collapse of Di Qin was so fast that it completely exceeded people's expectations. Even Di Ren himself and even these senior generals did not expect it at all.
If Chang'an was still stable and Fu Jian was still there, how could Fu Fei and the others end up in this situation?
The Jin army and the Jin generals are not afraid at all!
Just start the fight!
It's a pity that Fu Fei no longer has the confidence to do something that was easy at first.
He could only stand tall and pretend to be strong, but in fact, everyone could see that Fu Fei was weak.
He definitely doesn't have the strength to fight. What Fu Fei has to consider now is how to preserve his own power as much as possible in troubled times. On the way back, he had already made it clear to Xin Shu.
Unfortunately, Xin Shu is an upright person and cannot accept this euphemistic approach for the moment.
However, he will not refute.
After all, this is the order of his most trusted general, Fu Fei.
As long as it's his decision, it must be reasonable, no need to say more.
"alright!"
"No matter how hard we dwell on what has already happened, it won't help."
"Hurry up and prepare a meal. It must be sumptuous. Songs, dances, and performances are also arranged. There is also the Hundred Opera Troupe. I heard that they have been very active in the city recently and their performances are very popular. Call them over and give Jin
The generals of the army performed."
"Yes, I obey."
"Don't cry with a sad face. We are not defeated, nor have we made an alliance under the city. Xuzhou City is still in our hands, but the master has changed in name. So what?"
"Our power has not been lost at all. Isn't this a good thing?"
Xin Shu blinked his eyes, as if suddenly enlightened, but also as if he didn't understand at all.
"It seems to make sense."
Is not this nonsensical?
Are there any truths to what General Fu said?
"Then why don't you hurry up and get ready!" Fu Fei raised his foot as if to kick him, but Xin Shu quickly dodged it: "But, but..."
"No buts!"
"Go quickly!"
As soon as Fu Fei made a fierce move, Xin Shu immediately gave up and rushed out rolling and crawling.
What about Baixi Troupe?
Get out of here right now!
I want to see you perform!
Time passed quietly, the sky gradually darkened, and the Jin army's march never stopped. After all, although the soldiers in the front had arrived, there was still a long line of troops in the rear, which was still far away from Xuzhou City.
At this time, the most anxious person was not Wang Mi or the hasty-tempered Liu Yu, but Fu Zuan who was at the back of the team!
A character that no one can imagine!
It has almost been forgotten by everyone!
If you are an ordinary person with a thin skin, wouldn't it be a good thing that no one would remember such an embarrassing moment?
However, Fu Zuan is not an ordinary person.
He was a person who wanted to be in the spotlight, and he absolutely didn't know how to reflect, even though Yecheng was in his hands and was completely lost.
However, he still felt that the responsibility for the whole incident lay with Fu Pi, and even Zhang Hao should be blamed.
But it has nothing to do with Fu Zuan.
I came to seek refuge, not to defend the city. If Yecheng cannot be defended, whose fault is it?
Could it be me?
Yecheng belongs to Fu Pi. If he can't defend it, who can blame him?
According to Fu Zuan's thinking, even if he finally surrendered, it would be after Fu Pi's death and when Fu Pi was still alive. He did not do this.
It can be seen that he is a very kind person!
News came from the front that the army will march slowly. Tonight, the leading troops from the front will probably be stationed under Xuzhou City!
Fu Zuan became anxious upon hearing this!
How can this be done?
Wang Mi was not kind to him. Others were riding in prison cars, but he also let him ride a horse and gave him personal freedom. However, there were always dozens of people watching around him, making sure not to let him escape.
According to Fu Zun's prediction and at normal speed, the army will be able to cross Xuzhou City tonight and leave this ghost place.
Who knew, as I walked, I could clearly feel that the speed of walking slowed down little by little. In the end, it was no different from walking.
Fu Zuan was wondering, but such news came again, and Fu Zuan couldn't bear it at that time.
By his side, there are currently no generals of the Jin army, only Zeng Jing.
Although his official position was not high, he was Wang Mi's entourage and could speak well. Fu Zuan knew this very well.
"Captain Zeng, why are you stationed under Xuzhou City?"
"It's almost dark now. If we don't hurry up, won't we have to spend the night under Xuzhou City?"
"Besides, what should we do?"
What Fu Zhuan was talking about was of course not the Jin army. As a defeated general, he had no chance of commenting on the Jin army.
What he was concerned about was the troops of his family who had worked so hard to follow Di Qin's troops from Yecheng.
Since he is a surrenderer, it is natural that he will be treated differently, and Fu Zuan is well aware of this.
He originally thought that as long as he followed the army and wandered around Xuzhou City, he would be free.
After all, further ahead is the territory of the Jin Dynasty. Fu Zuan has no psychological pressure and is very calm.
Such an easy thing, why can't it be achieved?
Why does Fu Zuan have such strange ideas?
There is no other reason.
All because of embarrassment.
Do you think that Li Dalian is the only old acquaintance of Fu Fei among the Jin army?
How is that possible?
Although the relationship between the two cannot be regarded as old friends, Fu Fei and Fu Zuan can be regarded as a family.
Definitely very familiar.
Li Dalian is a traitor, what about Fu Zuan?
Fu Zuan's reputation is no better than Li Dalian's!
He fled all the way from Jinyang to Yecheng, lost Jinyang, and then Yecheng. What else could he be proud of?
When Fu Fei and other powerful generals saw Fu Zuan, they probably wanted to kill him.
Li Dalian was just a small pawn in the Di Qin army, and it could not have a greater impact on Fu Fei than Fu Zuan's surrender.
It can be said that Fu Zuan is now Di Qin's sinner.
As a great sinner, when he came to Xuzhou City, the only thing he cared about was to leave here as soon as possible and escape from the sea of suffering.
Unexpectedly, Wang Mi, who should have wanted to leave here as soon as possible, was suddenly not in a hurry. Not only was he not in a hurry to leave, he even wanted to stay for one night. Isn't this messing around?
Does anyone still remember him?
While Fu Zuan was busy inquiring about the news, he thought silently in his heart, no one thinks of me, I don't exist.
"you?"
"Of course we stopped together."
"The army will rest where it is for the night and will march again tomorrow. General Fu, aren't you happy that you can rest?"
Although Fu Zun didn't say it clearly, the troubled expression on his face clearly meant that he was unhappy.
Zeng Jing pretended to smile and immediately became alert.
Something's wrong!
Fu Zuan must have something in his heart when he behaves like this!
"How could this be possible without being unhappy?"
"Captain Zeng, don't talk nonsense."
"What I mean is, I don't know what the army is doing here. If there is anything I can do to help, just ask and I will definitely help."

help?
Zeng Jing looked Fu Zuan up and down, haha!
This great general, so thoughtful, could actually bring up this matter.
interesting!
So interesting!
Since his intentions are so sincere, it would be unreasonable to fail to fulfill his wishes here.
"That's good."
"If General Fu has this intention, that would be great. I will go ahead and inform you. At the end of the Youshi period, you will follow Wang Shilang into the city!"
"Very good!"
"I was in need of someone to accompany me today, so you came to my door, right?"
"Why did I forget you? It's just the right time for you to go, just the right time." Zeng Jing muttered, and when he was about to leave, Fu Zuan panicked.
"What did you say?"
"Into the city?"
"Xuzhou City?"
Zeng Jing was about to leave, but he pulled him back again when he called him like this.
So he looked impatient.
"certainly!"
“Where else could it be besides Xuzhou?”
"General Fu, please don't refuse. In the evening, Xuzhou guard Fu Fei invited our generals to the city. We happen to be short of someone who can turn around. I think you are suitable, so it's settled."
"no!"
"I dont go!"
"I can't go see Fu Fei!"
Fu Zuan also said the real reason without any hesitation. He had nothing to hide. It was about to reach the Youshi hour. If they really dragged him into the city, he would be dead!
When it comes to survival, lying is the worst thing to do.
Zeng Jing stopped and looked at Fu Zuan with a particularly meaningful expression.
"General Fu, I just went to the city to have a look. What else can Fu Fei do to you?"
"He has made it very clear that he has made a covenant with us. From now on, Xuzhou City will belong to the Jin Dynasty, and Fu Fei will also submit to the Jin Dynasty."
"What are you worried about?"
"Actually, in the final analysis, you are all the same people."
"Although you have submitted to the Jin Dynasty, strictly speaking, you cannot be blamed for the loss of Yecheng. This is for sure."
"Our army knows this well, how can Fu Fei still be unclear about this?"
"He is not a Hutu man. Besides, now that he has submitted to me, Da Jin, aren't you two the same?"
"Besides, if we really compare your two behaviors, you, General Fu Zun, are better than him, Fu Fei!"
"He Fu Fei didn't move a single soldier, and he didn't even compete with our generals. But it's different for you Fu Zuan. You really went into battle to kill the enemy."
"Based on this, I think if Fu Fei is clear-minded, he won't embarrass you."
"But……"
"What else are you doing?"
"This is such a good thing, don't hesitate, I will go to the front to report the news!"
Zeng Jingcai didn't have time to listen to him, so he gave a few more instructions and ran forward.
