Qin Official

"so close……"

When being led out of the camp by two Chu soldiers, Heifu found that his back was sweating slightly and his palms were even colder.

This time, he really put himself in danger.

But what can be done? With a force of seven hundred to defeat an enemy of two thousand, the chance of winning was too slim. Hei Fu could only try his best to think of ways to increase the chance of winning, even if it was 10%.

For every 10% more chance of winning, they will lose a lot of lives...

Heifu also thought about sending his men to pretend to surrender, but he still couldn't let go.

His subordinates are all ordinary people from small border counties, with their own advantages and disadvantages.

For example, Dongmen Leopard has martial arts and courage, and is not afraid of death, but has a reckless personality. Ji Ying is smart and eloquent, but timid and unable to withstand pressure. Li Xian was educated, careful, and could do small things well. He even managed the military camp when Heifu was away, but he was too cautious and found it difficult to do big things. Xiao Tao is loyal, courageous and knowledgeable, but unfortunately he has a stutter. It is too difficult for him to fake surrender.

As for Gong Ao? This guy is quite bold, but all his emotions are written on his face, so he pretends to surrender, saying that he may not speak the next moment and offend the Chu people, so that his head will be chopped off and sacrificed to the flag.

Looking around the city, the only person who can be called "great wisdom and courage" is Heifu himself.

When he reported the matter to Li You, Li You showed hesitation because Heifu was his designated commander. If something happened...

"It's too risky." Li You said.

But Hei Fu secretly smiled in his heart: "A mere little general risked his life to save the son-in-law of the King of Qin, Li Si's son, and won a sole victory in the midst of defeat. This achievement must be particularly dazzling."

Different from the previous small rewards for small achievements, this time, Heifu bet his life, death, and wealth in the next ten years on this adventure.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cubs?"

After saying such a famous saying, under the admiring eyes of everyone, including Li You, Hei Fu resolutely left the city!

"Fortunately, although the process was thrilling, the results were good."

In fact, only after doing it did I know that as long as the people who come to negotiate surrender are not too dangerous, as long as they don't show their flaws, they are much safer than the lobbyists who are easily thrown into the cauldron and cooked.

The only trouble is that the surrender method proposed by Dou Ran and Sun Feng makes it difficult to fake a surrender, but the ship will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge, and it is not too late to find a way back.

The most important thing is that Heifu's performance successfully made the two Chu County magistrates relax their vigilance towards the Qin army in the city, thinking that they were really going to surrender.

The Art of War goes like this: When you are humble, you will be arrogant, when you are lost, you will work hard, when you are close, you will be separated. Attacking an unprepared enemy and taking them by surprise is the victory of a military strategist.

Even if Heifu pretends to be humble, as long as the other party relaxes, they will have an opportunity!

Moreover, Heifu also had an unexpected gain during his trip.

"Then, who wrote to Dou Ran about what happened in Anlu County?"

…

At this time, they had already passed the Chu army's position, but they saw that the Chu soldiers were sitting cross-legged and waiting. After learning that the Qin army was about to surrender, they were no longer so alert, their faces were relaxed, and their weapons were placed on the ground. On one side, they were chatting enthusiastically with each other, as if they were not here to fight, but to go hunting.

In the eyes of the Chu people, this war has ended with their complete victory, right?

They were wrong. For the Qin Wangzheng who was determined to destroy the six kingdoms.

This war has just begun!

At this moment, Heifu suddenly saw several Chu army chariots and cavalry escorting a group of miserable Qin soldiers covered in dust, coming this way!

"Is this?" He looked at Chu Zu beside him, with a puzzled expression on his face.

"He is your companion."

Chu soldiers said with a proud face: "I don't know how many people were running from the north to the south along the way. We have already captured two or three hundred of them, and they are all being held behind the formation and detained!"

Hei Fu's heart moved, but he stopped talking. As he continued to move forward with the Chu soldiers, he passed by these captured Qin soldiers...

There was a commotion in front of him, but it was a Qin military officer wearing a short crown with the title of "Bu Geng" on his head. He was being pushed to the ground by the Chu people, and they were arrogantly tying ropes to him. The Chu soldiers on the side said with a smile, Only the Qin people who resisted fiercely could get this kind of treatment.

"As for those of you who are willing to surrender, you don't have to do this."

The Qin official had his hands tied and stood up again. When he raised his head, he happened to see Hei Fu in front of him and was stunned.

Heifu's eyelids twitched and his steps hesitated slightly...

This is someone he knows and someone who knows him!

Although this man's face was tired and there was blood at the corner of his mouth, Hei Fu recognized him at a glance. Isn't this Zhou Hua who was chatting nonsense with him outside the Xiangcheng Camp?

Zhou Hua, who came from Sanchuan County and was also the personal guard of a certain captain, was looking at Heifu at the moment.

His eyes widened and his mouth opened slightly, as if he was about to shout out the word "black husband"!

"Hundred General Zhou!"

But Hei Fu spoke up first, laughed and walked towards Zhou Hua, saying like a barrage of firecrackers: "You don't recognize me? I am the commander of the Nanjun Army!"

"Sincerely... you..."

Zhou Hua was a little surprised. He and Heifu were old acquaintances and knew that he was Li You's confidant. Whenever the captain held a military meeting in the big tent, the two of them would chat outside without saying a word, and the topics were very speculative.

But at this moment, this black man appears in the Chu camp and calls himself "Zhong". What does this mean?

The Chu soldiers on the side looked at the two of them suspiciously, with guarded expressions. Hei Fu cupped his hands at them and said, "Why don't you let me persuade this hundred generals to surrender together?"

The people of Chu did not doubt that he was there, so they let Hei Fu continue to speak. Hei Fu used the Guanzhong dialect to persuade Zhou Hua. He spoke very fast. The people of Chu heard it in confusion, but they could only roughly understand that he was talking about surrendering to Chu. The benefits of military...

Zhou Hua's face became increasingly ugly, and he was about to curse, but unexpectedly, among these empty words of persuasion to surrender, when Heifu paused for a moment, he quickly said two words!

"Heavy drum!"

Chu Ren did not pay attention to this small detail, but Zhou Hua was stunned when he heard this.

Heifu had stopped talking and said with a smile: "General Zhou Bai, how about you, are you willing to surrender with me?"

"Pooh!"

Zhou Hua's face turned green and white. He spat at Hei Fu's feet for the last time and cursed: "You are a thief who has surrendered to the enemy. Am I a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"

Amidst a burst of scolding, Zhou Hua continued to be pushed away, while Heifu cursed "Ignorance" with a distorted expression in front of Chu Zu, but what he was thinking was...

"I wonder if he understands what I mean?"

…

While Heifu was in the Chu camp, something was also happening in Linyang City.

Tu Si, Zhai Chong, and Man were not long away from Heifu when they were called together by Xu Yang. They were mysterious and didn't know what to do.

"To be honest, everyone, that black man came out of the city not to pretend to surrender, but to surrender for real!"

Everyone's expressions suddenly changed: "General Xu Bai, don't talk nonsense!"

Xu Yang sneered: "Heifu is from Nanjun, which is the land of Western Chu. For him, surrendering to Chu is like returning to his homeland. What's so surprising?"

As soon as he said this, Tu Si pondered for a while, but Manze said nothing, his eyes were strange, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Only Zhai Chong said dissatisfiedly: "General Xu Bai, you are slandering, but Is there any evidence?"

Xu Yang said firmly: "Of course there is. If it is really a fake surrender, he can just send any of his subordinates out of the city. Why go there in person? In my opinion, he wanted to meet the Chu general and sold Captain Li and us. In exchange for his wealth in Chu State! He has already become a military thief who surrendered to the enemy!"

Zhai Chong shook his head: "Hei Fu doesn't look like this kind of person..."

"It's hard to know people's faces, but it's hard to know their hearts. In such an emergency, you must be on guard."

Xu Yang looked at the crowd and said, "In my opinion, it's better to open the west gate and leave while the black man is discussing with General Chu outside the city!"

Tu Si shook his head: "Didn't I say it before? The enemy's troops are surrounded by chariots and cavalry. This place is completely flat. Even if we retreat now, it's too late..."

"As long as they don't all leave, there's still time!" Xu Yang's eyes were bright and he finally revealed his true intention.

"Abandon the soldiers, we will take a few trusted followers and escort Captain Li away!"

The room suddenly fell silent, and Xu Yang's words echoed in the ears of the three of them. Zhai Chong and Tu Si were both a little shocked. Man Ze suddenly raised his head, his eyes flickering, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Xu Yang said: "Even if Heifu is pretending to surrender, when we go out of the city and fight the Chu people to the death, using a few to attack the masses, we will still have a narrow escape. It is better to leave the city quietly, leaving behind Heifu's soldiers, as well as the miscellaneous soldiers and Chu people gathered along the way." The entanglement will buy us time to retreat. In this way, we will definitely be able to escape! When we return to Shangcai, we will say that everyone took the initiative to defend the enemy in order to protect the captain!"

Suddenly, it became clear that Xu Yang had been encouraging everyone to evacuate since yesterday.

He actually planned to abandon the large army and flee from the ground, just to survive!

"Xu Yang, it turns out you are the real military thief!" Zhai Chong was furious and started to slap the case, but found that Xu Yang was not afraid at all and looked behind him.

Several of Xu Yang's cronies have already put their swords on the backs of three hundred generals!

"Three hundred generals, you are just like that black man, how stupid you are..."

Xu Yang laughed loudly: "Whoever can escort Captain Li Zhouquan will be a great hero and will be trusted by Lieutenant Ting. As for the lives of hundreds of Nanjun soldiers, will Lieutenant Ting care? In that case, I have Why live and die with them!"
