A word with Xi immediately lowered the atmosphere to freezing point.

Many things cannot be persuaded by taking the initiative.

Yueman has no brains, and he believed what Cheng Gongying said.

But he didn't believe it, and even He Mi, who had a good relationship with Han Sui, didn't believe that all this had nothing to do with Han Sui.

Cheng Gongying looked calm, as if he had expected the questioning of the Qiang patriarch.

"Patriarch, you are right about one thing. My lord knows it. But you are wrong about one thing. My lord does not support it, but strongly opposes it!"

"Humph!"

Dai Xi didn't stop Cheng Gongying from continuing, but only let out a cold snort to express his disdain for his rhetoric.

Cheng Gongying didn't care, he had already prepared a set of rhetoric to explain to the Qiang patriarch.

"The patriarchs must be very clear about the situation in Liangzhou. It is tantamount to wishful thinking to supply two to three hundred thousand troops normally!"

"Even now, I'm not afraid of your jokes! If we rely solely on the supply from the Jincheng government treasury, the 300,000 troops won't be able to last even a month! What's more, we were defeated by Liu Zhang before, and we lost all our supplies!"

"I know that I'm sorry for the soldiers who died in Yuzhong City for the great cause, but I can't help it! If I don't use their meat, the camp will have run out of food!"

"Patriarchs, think about it, if there is no such 'meat', can the coalition forces maintain the morale of attacking the city for ten consecutive days?"

There was a sudden silence in the tent, without a single sound.

Even if everyone disagrees with this matter, they all admit that what Cheng Gongying said is the truth.

In the bitterly cold place of Liangzhou, countless people would freeze to death every winter and starve to death. This is nothing new.

After a long time, He Mi, the leader of the Han and Qiang tribe who had a good relationship with Han Sui, broke the dullness.

"Even so, this is not a reason for you to use the corpses of our Qiang soldiers as food!"

Cheng Gongying smiled bleakly, and nodded irrefutably.

"Patriarch He is right! So today I will give you an explanation! After defeating Liu Zhang, even if you cut me into pieces, Cheng Gongying will have no complaints!"

Han Sui's eyes widened, and he looked at Cheng Gongying in shock.

"Military division! You..."

Cheng Gongying was willing to give his life voluntarily for his great cause!

"My lord! This is what I deserve..."

Han Sui's eyes turned red. He is not a cold-blooded animal, he is also a person with feelings and flesh and blood.

Cheng Gongying is undoubtedly repaying his kindness!

"military adviser…"

Han Sui really wanted to tell everyone that this had nothing to do with Cheng Gongying, everything was arranged by him.

But when the words came to his lips, he didn't say them after all.

Maybe it's selfishness, maybe it's greed for life and fear of death, maybe it's for the great cause...

Han Sui turned all his anger, sadness, and grievances into motivation to defeat Liu Zhang!

"See! If I really surrender to Liu Zhang, wouldn't it be easier to just cut off the food!"

Han Sui directly pushed away Ma Chao's long sword, his eyes swept across the crowd angrily.

"Without food, what do soldiers use to fight! What do you use to stabilize the morale of the army!"

Han Sui's roar pierced his heart, he was dedicated to defeating Liu Zhang, but now he was so questioned by his own people.

Disappointed is the best way to describe his mood at the moment.

But at this moment, a mocking, disdainful, and frivolous laugh sounded again.

"Hehehe..."

Han Sui looked up and saw that it was Ma Chao again!

And at some point, the long sword reached his neck again!

"Meng Qi, you still don't believe me?"

Han Sui stared at Ma Chao with red eyes, both indignation and disappointment in his eyes.

It's a pity that Ma Chao only responded to Han Sui with contempt.

"Old Dog Han, you can act quite well!"

Glancing at Han Sui with disdain again, Ma Chao turned his head and looked behind him.

"Head of the Dian clan, it's your turn."

After Ma Chao finished speaking, it was Han Sui who was most surprised in the handsome tent.

The matter of eating meat was Han Sui's only concealment from the Qiang people. He really couldn't think of what else Dianwu could accuse him of.

Dian Wu broke free from the bound soldiers on both sides, and then walked slowly to Ma Chao's side.

"Three nights ago, that was the day you had a dispute with Patriarch Tudan and General Ma!"

"After I went back, I was upset, so I was patrolling the camp, and I happened to see your confidant sneaking out of the camp and heading towards Yuzhong City!"

"Han Sui, you Han people have an old saying that if you want others to not know, you have to do it yourself! You think you don't know, but you just happened to be seen by me!"

There was an uproar in the tent, and Yueman and He Mi showed disappointment again.

Fortunately, they were persuaded by Han Sui's words before, but they didn't expect it to be a naked deception again!

Could it be that Liu Zhang sent a letter suddenly? It turned out that Han Sui sent someone to contact him before!

"I didn't! Dianwu, you spout blood! Why did you frame me!"

Han Sui stared at Dian Wu in disbelief, never expecting that the other party would frame him out of nothing!

Back to three days ago, after Ma Chao and the five Qiang clan leaders left, only Han Sui and Cheng Gongying were left in the tent.

"My lord, why don't we go back to Jincheng. Forgive me, the chance of defeating Liu Zhang is too slim..."

Han Sui smiled miserably, then shook his head slightly.

"Military Master, can we stop Liu Zhang by going back to Jincheng? The best situation is that he can only live on his last breath!"

"I have a sad feeling in my heart. If I miss tonight, I'm afraid we will never be able to defeat the Yizhou Army again..."

Cheng Gongying frowned, he had an idea that he kept silent.

He felt that even if Tudan ordered soldiers to attack Yuzhong tonight, he might not be able to win the battle as Han Sui wished.

Perhaps from the first defeat and the loss of 150,000 troops, the final outcome of the coalition forces has been doomed.

"My lord, didn't Liu Zhang once say that he was willing to accept the lord's surrender? If something cannot be done, it is not for a way out!"

Cheng Gongying originally thought that saying something to persuade him to surrender would arouse Han Sui's fury.

Unexpectedly, Han Sui was surprisingly calm, just looking thoughtful.

"Surrender...?"

After a long time, Han Sui only asked a question.

"My lord, if you really want to surrender, you must do so as soon as possible! If you can bring a hundred thousand people from the camp to surrender, Liu Zhang will definitely value your lord."

"If the army is in danger of defeat, and surrenders when there is no other way out, the final result will be..."

Cheng Gongying didn't continue, he believed that Han Sui must be very clear.

If the battle is finally defeated and the coalition forces collapse, then Han Sui will be of little use!

At that time, it will be difficult to say whether Liu Zhang can accept the surrender!

Is Han Sui afraid of death?

I must be afraid!

There is no one who is not afraid of death.

But in turn, Han Sui is not afraid!

As early as decades ago, Han Sui should have died at the hands of Beigong Boyu. He has lived so many years!

Han Sui pondered for a long time, and finally made up his mind.

"Military division, resist to the end! At worst, you will die!"
