Hu Qing's face was startled: "Where is the Ming Lord?"
Li Shiqi: "Haha, it's so close in front of you, can the general really not see it?"
"This...is this Mr. Li?...Oh no, it's Liu Peigong!"
Li Shiqi just wanted to slap Hu Qing twice, but he held it back and said with a smile: "It's Pei Gong. Pei Gong started in Dangcheng. He only raised an army of one or two thousand people. It took one year to develop to the current scale. Isn't it for this?
Do you understand me?"
"..."
"Although Liu Bang's talents are limited, he knows how to use people well and has a broad mind. He has the world's best counselors such as Zhang Liang and Xiao, as well as brave generals such as Fan Kuai, Cao Shen, and Zhou Bo. In addition to his bravery, Xiang Yu is also narrow-minded, and his flaws will be repaid...
.”
"Li Mou asserts that although Xiang Yu may be strong for a while, he will still be defeated by Pei Gong in the future. The ultimate king in the world can only be Liu Bang, and this is his destiny!"
After hearing this, Hu Qing frowned slightly, walked a few steps forward, and turned his back to Li Shiqi: "How can Mr. Li predict the final situation of the world when something happened so long ago?"
Li Shiqi approached Hu Qing again, his eyes showing treachery and said: "It's just because Liu Bang can treat everyone who has helped him well, but Xiang Yu can't."
Hu Qing turned to look at Li Shengqi's somewhat frightening eyes and said: "I was the commander-in-chief of the Qin army at Yaoguan. I resisted Liu Bang's army for many days and allowed him to lose his troops. Doesn't he hate Hu? The counselors below him
, General, don’t you want to behead Hu?”
Li Shiqi's face relaxed and he stroked his beard again: "Hahahaha, General Hu is worrying too much. Everyone has his own master. If Liu Bang and the people below can't see through this, then I won't stand in front of you today.
.Pei Gong can’t even pass Wuguan.”
"It's just a matter of whether this 'lord' is worth serving for."
After hearing this, Hu Qing said with a cold face: "Humph, my ancestors of the Hu family have served the King of Qin for generations. In every generation, men from the Hu family have died in battle, and have been seriously injured and disabled in countless ways. They sacrificed everything for the Qin Dynasty, but in the end they died personally.
The ending. And the imperial court will never treat those old Qin people who sacrificed their lives well."
"What's the use of this country? What's the benefit to me, the people of Qin, of being loyal to such a king? I've seen through this, so I like more wealth, because the king of Qin won't give it to me!"
Li Shiqi smiled awkwardly: "In that case, why doesn't the general lead the troops guarding the pass and surrender to Liu Peigong? If Peigong succeeds in the future, then with the merits of the general, it will be no problem to be granted a title..."
"What? Feng... Fenghou?"
Li Shiqi stepped forward and patted Hu Qing on the shoulder: "General Hu, the title of marquis is the lowest. If you have outstanding military exploits in Pei Gong's army, it is possible to grant a title of king with a different surname..."
"Hiss..." Hu Qing took another big breath of cold air, punched his fist and took a few steps forward again, turning his back to Li Shiqi, and fell into deep thought.
Li Shiqi walked closer again and shouted softly: "General, General Hu?"
Hu Qing raised his head and looked at Li Sheqi: "Ah... what Mr. Li said is true? If I surrender to Liu Bang, I will be burdened with infamy for eternity. If I end up being killed by him and not getting a good death, is he not unjust?"
"Instead of doing this, I might as well die fighting at Yaoguan, at least I can get a good reputation."
Li Shiqi nodded and smiled, stroking his beard again and said: "General Hu has this intention, so why worry about having no use for it? Although Pei Gong did not come to meet the general in person today, Li's words and intentions are passed down to Liu Pei Gong.
It’s my intention.”
After hearing this, Hu Qing looked worried and happy. He paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, unable to make up his mind for a moment.
But Li Shiqi saw that his resolve was completely shaken, so he didn't rush him, because the thought of surrender had already planted seeds in his heart, and it might have taken root and sprouted.
What needs to be done now is to let Hu Qing constantly weigh the trade-offs so that he can make up his mind to abandon the Pass and surrender to Liu Bang
After more than a minute passed, Hu Qing stopped, stood in front of Li Shiqi and said: "Mr. Li, for the people in Guanzhong, and for myself, it may be best to surrender to Pei Gong. I would like to ask, if Pei Gong
What will happen to the old Qin people in Guanzhong if we occupy Guanzhong? If I abandon Aoguan, but if Peigong massacres Guanzhong in the future..."
"The general Hu Qing is angry with both men and gods, and has no place for him anymore. Although Hu Qing loves money and is greedy for profit, he will not give away the lives of the people in Guanzhong!"
Li Shiqi was stunned and looked at Hu Qing with bright eyes. He didn't expect that this person could think of the people in Guanzhong... It seems that as a Qin person, even if he has the intention to surrender, he is not completely ruthless.
Li Shiqi said: "Haha, general, you are worried. If Pei Gong is a person who kills indiscriminately, it is impossible to get the support of countless people along the way. General Hu, don't worry, I, Li Shi, will guarantee it with my life. If Liu Peigong takes Xianyang, he will never win."
He will not harm any common people. With the help of people like me, Pei Gong will be able to strictly discipline himself."
"Besides, if Xiang Yu invades Guanzhong, does the general know the consequences? Pei Gong will need the support of the people in Guanzhong to fight against Xiang Yu. How could he do the stupid thing of cutting off his arms?"
Hu Qing's face lit up and he relaxed and said, "Mr. Li, do you really mean what you said?"
"really!"
Hu Qing let out a long sigh and said with a hint of sadness: "Pei Gong is a true gentleman. If the monarch of Qin could be even half as good as Pei Gong, why would he end up in today's situation?"
Li Shiqi: "Then General Hu..."
Hu Qing said: "Mr. Li, don't worry. What I heard from you today made Hu feel like he was enlightened. Although I am the general, the surrender is not something that Hu can do alone..."
Li Shiqi's eyes flashed: "Could it be that General Hu is talking about He Yutai?"
Hu Qing sighed: "Although He Yutai has some disputes with me on ideas and military affairs, he is brave and does not know how to adapt. He regards the Qin court as his master. If he wants me to reach an agreement, he is afraid that there will be a mutiny...
.”
After hearing this, Li Shiqi said with a fierce expression: "General, opportunity waits for no one. The number of defenders at Aoguan Pass now is probably less than 30,000. If we wait any longer, Liu Peigong will soon break through the Aoguan Defense Line. By then...
If the general surrenders again, it will be far worse than now."
Hu Qing trembled: "What's Mr. Li's clever plan? If He Yutai can be kept away from Yaoguan, I, Hu Qing, can lead the army to defect to Liu Peigong."
Li Shiqi said: "General Hu, if the Liu army bypasses Yaoguan and attacks its southern defense line, who will defend it?"
"Hiss..." Hu Qing took a breath and suddenly said: "Sir, what you mean is..."
Li Shiqi laughed loudly, stroked his beard and nodded: "That's it, no one will be able to restrain General Hu. It is logical to surrender to Pei Gong. Haha."
Hu Qing thought for a moment and shook his head, frowning slightly...
Li Shiqi was startled. After talking for a long time, he still had doubts? Hu Qing was too timid. He was a woman.
"What else does General Hu have to worry about?"
Hu Qingdao: "I serve as the commander-in-chief of Yaoguan, and the Qin army guarding the pass is not all my direct lineage. If I lead the troops to surrender to Peigong without any reason, the army sergeants will definitely mutiny, and the civil strife will cause heavy losses. Neither Mr. nor Peigong want to see it."
Bar."
Li Shiqi raised his eyebrows after hearing this. It turned out that he still had such concerns, which was normal. If
The general does not have absolute authority and hastily surrendered to the enemy. If the soldiers below do not agree, they may tear the general alive...
