At this time, all Ge Hong's men were summoned in the Beihai County Mansion.
"This is the situation we are facing now. If you don't surrender, you will die!"
"From now on, we will join Taizhou. Now that Zhu Yue is not in Hezhou, this is our opportunity!"
"After we failed to attack Yunzhong County, Zhu Yue would not be able to spare us when he came back. We cannot wait passively!"
Ge Hong said to the people in front of him.
"But sir, let's not talk about the governor, Fanzhou Mu, I am afraid that once we betray, we will not be easily let go!"
"I'm afraid our brothers will also have opinions by then."
A general stepped forward hesitantly and said.
"snort!"
"Fan Hanzhong?"
"Haven't you seen it now? Our Lord Zhou Mu has some tricks in Zhu Yue's hands!"
"I have already obeyed Zhu Yue's orders for a long time!"
"This time the people from Taizhou were able to break in, but Fan Hanzhong didn't make any move. I guess he was just holding back his energy to stumble Zhu Yue!"
"Now, the person named Zhu has the final say on the fate of Hezhou."
Ge Hong said to everyone.
Everyone bowed their heads and remained silent.
Fan Hanzhong has indeed been too abnormal recently.
In fact, it has been very confusing to people since the time of Chen Dadao in Heyang County.
Chen Dadao has been following Fan Hanzhong for so many years, and he will be tortured to death if he is told to do so?
"Then... Sir, now we have only minor conflicts with Taizhou, and there is no direct confrontation. Wouldn't it be a little suspicious if we just surrendered?"
"How about we fight with the people from Taizhou first? After defeating them, maybe we will have better bargaining chips!"
A general came forward and said.
"Of course I know this, but look at the morale of our men, how can we still fight?"
"If we really get into a fight, can you guarantee that we will win?"
Ge Hong glanced at everyone.
"So I decided to give up the county government as a condition for peace talks."
"In this way, our sincerity will be obvious and there will be no suspicion."
Ge Hong said lightly.
"What?!"
"Sir, do you want to give up the county government?"
"Doesn't that mean that our Beihai City has just been handed over to others?"
"Sir, we can't. We rely on Beihai City. Even if they besiege the city, we can still resist it. It's not that simple to take down our Beihai City with their 40,000 to 50,000 troops!"
"..."
As soon as Ge Hong finished speaking, his generals and officers all tried to dissuade him. By doing so, their sincerity was no longer a problem, but at the same time they had no way out.
"This matter is settled like this. Control your troops."
"If you are looking for trouble for me at this time, I don't mind killing you. You can see everything clearly."
"For those who oppose it, if we let them go, they will become our enemies in the future. Once they have any ideas, we will eradicate them!"
Ge Hong said coldly.
…
Noon the next day.
Ge Hong led all the generals to greet Zhang Teng and his army at the gate of Beihai City.
After receiving the news from Ge Hong, Zhang Teng personally led an army of 30,000 people towards this side.
The remaining troops are still scattered in Beihai County.
Thousands of people had already entered Beihai City in advance.
"Ge Hong, the governor of Beihai County, led all his troops to welcome Mr. Zhang!"
Ge Hong saw Zhang Teng and the others coming to the city gate, took a step forward and said to Zhang Teng.
"Ge Hong?"
"I have heard about you for a long time. You were Fan Hanzhong's subordinate before, and then you secretly colluded with Zhu Yue. Now you have joined us, which is a bit interesting."
Zhang Teng rode on the horse and looked at Ge Hong condescendingly.
Said without mercy.
Ge Hong's face turned red.
He cursed secretly in his heart, but still stepped forward and said: "Now I have to meet the Lord of the Ming Dynasty. I just abandoned the secret and turned to the Ming Dynasty. Sir, people have been arranged in the city to catch the wind. Please move to the restaurant!"
Ge Hong bowed forward and said.
"Jie Feng?"
"No need, take your people and go to the county mansion!"
"Enter the city!"
Zhang Teng whipped the horse's buttocks and led 10,000 horses into Beihai City.
The rest of the troops were stationed outside the city.
Although Ge Hong is the head of a county, his status is naturally higher than Zhang Teng's in normal times, but now in wartime, whoever has more soldiers is the boss.
Strength is the basis of status.
Zhang Teng was able to lead 50,000 troops to attack Hezhou this time, so his status in Taizhou was naturally extraordinary.
Coupled with the previous failure of Beihai County, a total of 5,000 troops were lost.
Now Ge Hong has no dignity at all in front of Zhang Teng.
In the county government.
The generals brought by Zhang Teng stood at the top, while Ge Hong and the generals from Beihai County huddled below like prisoners.
"I want to know everything about Zhu Yue's arrangements in Hezhou!"
"And Fan Hanzhong's current actions!"
As soon as Zhang Teng came in, he asked Ge Hong.
For Zhang Teng, standing still now means that he cannot see through Hezhou's actions.
I am afraid of taking a step into the abyss.
With Ge Hong coming to seek refuge, he naturally wanted to know these things as soon as possible.
"ah?"
"Zhu Yue's arrangement?"
"And Fan Hanzhong's actions?"
"I don't know either!"
Ge Hong was dumbfounded when he heard this.
As for Ge Hong, if he had known about Zhu Yue's arrangements, he probably would not have come to this point.
"you do not know?"
When Zhang Teng heard this, he almost patted his chair and stood up.
You don’t know anything, so why don’t you surrender?
Should I send you as a prisoner?
Or should I miss you, Beihai City?
Could it be said that he fell into the trap again?
Zhang Teng looked at Ge Hong coldly.
The Ge Hong in front of them was a county guard, and he was already confronting them head-on. How could he not know any news?
If he doesn't say anything, there is only one possibility: he just doesn't want to say it!
Don't want to say it, it means that Zhu Yue and the others must have a plan!
Could it be that letting us enter the city was intentional?
But the city has already sent troops to investigate in advance, and there is nothing abnormal. Moreover, there are 20,000 troops outside the city. Even if it is not good for oneself, it is difficult to do it.
Unless they can have more troops and encircle them, this will be troublesome.
It's just that Hezhou's troops are scattered all over the place, and it doesn't happen overnight.
Even if they gathered together, there would only be 50,000 to 60,000 people, and they would not pose a threat to them.
What's more, now that Ge Hong is inside, is it possible to use the head of a county as bait? Then the price is too high.
Zhang Teng couldn't figure it out.
"You mean, it's been so long since we invaded Hezhou, and Fan Hanzhong doesn't have any news about you?"
"Even if Zhu Yue is in Liaozhou, he can't hide it for so long. Will he let it go?"
