Lu Dayuan did not fall asleep all night, but kept staring at the two thin-skinned coffins placed beside him. This was made by the craftsmen who accompanied the army, who dismantled several carriages overnight yesterday, and the body of Deng Pu and Deng Su was contained in the thin-skinned coffins.

Deng’s family is finished! Lu Dayuan lamented in his heart. As one of Deng’s confidant generals, he certainly knew that after Li Zhi’s death, the seemingly glorious Deng family actually contained great crisis, royal suspicion, and hatred of Bian. Another general of the Deng faction, Xiao Qiang, who had heavy troops, was in a ruthless heart and intended to establish his own business. Various factors prompted Deng Hong and Deng Pu to make up their minds to join forces and the barbarians attacked Ming Kingdom together, wanting to fight a beautiful turnaround, seize a large area of ​​fertile land for Ming Kingdom, and create a glorious record that has never been seen since the Qin Dynasty.

If all this becomes reality, there is no doubt that Deng's achievements will be recorded in history and his status in the Qin Dynasty will be unshakable. At the beginning of the dispatch of troops, Deng's family also had many discussions and unanimously determined that there was no reason for this big battle to fail anyway.

But it still failed.

Where is the failure? Lu Dayuan thought about it over and over again, but even now, he has not come up with a reason.

But failure is failure. A plan that seemed to be without any problems was lost in the end. Looking at the two coffins, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

If I had known this, why should I be there?

He stood up and looked at the soldiers around him. The dark circles of his eyes showed that his soldiers were also sleeping all night. As a result, they were surrounded by enemies and their lives were at stake. Who could sleep?

There were already smoke from the enemy camp opposite, and the fragrance that drifted in the wind made him swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Build the pot to make rice, let the brothers have a full meal." He whispered to the deputy general beside him.

"General Lu, we don't have much food to accompany the army." The deputy general deliberately lowered his voice and reported to him.

Lu Dayuan smiled bitterly: "Do you think, even if we let the brothers drink only porridge, how long can we last?"

The deputy general was silent.

"Let your brothers have a full meal, and then prepare to break through!" Lu Dayuan said.

The deputy general shuddered, "General Lu, how many can we break through like this without the cover of the cavalry? "

"How much can I go back?" Lu Dayuan sighed.

The deputy general was overshadowed and lowered his head and walked silently towards the distance.

Lu Dayuan carried a knife and walked towards the front of the position. The Ming army seemed to have no sign of attack. Their cavalry retreated further than yesterday. At this moment, they only released some wandering whistles around him.

The most difficult thing to deal with in breaking through is these cavalry. The biggest casualties will also be caused by these cavalry. But there is no way. If the cavalry of Daqin did not escape yesterday, I would still be sure to take most of the people back. But now, it would be great if there were one or two stops in the ten stops. At this point, Lu Dayuan didn't want to blame the cavalry. After he knew that Deng Pu and Deng Sushuang were both dead, he would have lost all his courage to fight.

After walking forward a few steps, he stood alone in front of the array with a knife, looking at the big sun and moon flag flying in the distance, but his heart was filled with emotion.

A small Chu army captain who had fled in a panic five years ago has now created a huge foundation, not only destroying Yue, but also defeating Qin.

Lu Dayuan didn't have much hatred for Qin Feng. On the contrary, he admired this young but legendary figure. He knew that this person should be able to fight him right now. Even if he died under his knife, it would be worthy of his life in his life.

At this time, a person actually walked out of the Ming army's array. He looked at him for a moment, and took big steps and walked directly towards him.

Lu Dayuan was slightly stunned.

The man got closer and closer, without any intention of stopping. He heard countless sounds of crossbows behind him, and he raised his hand and waved it, indicating that he should not move rashly.

The man got closer and closer, and Lu Dayuan finally saw clearly that it was Huo Guang, the Minister of War of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, he was also a master of martial arts. He was slightly angry and said goodbye to say goodbye that you are not a master. Even if you are a master, would you still want to fight my army of ten thousand people alone?

Even if you will win the final victory, can't I hurt your teeth?

He stared at Huo Guang, carried a knife, and walked towards the other party.

The two stood opposite each other, Lu Dayuan was full of anger, but Huo Guang had a smile on his face.

Of course, the winner is qualified to laugh.

"General Lu, can we talk?" Huo Guang smiled and said, "Sit down and talk, don't stare at me like this. I'm not here to fight you. If you fight one-on-one, you are not my opponent. If you fight in groups, you are not our opponent now." He pointed to the infantry behind him, and then to the cavalry far behind Lu Dayuan. At this moment, all the cavalry there were already turning over and looking at this place with a fierce look.

"What are we going to talk about?" Lu Dayuan said hatefully: "General Deng Pu, General Deng Su are all dead at your hands. You said, what are we going to talk about?"

Huo Guang snorted coldly and pointed at his feet, "General Lu, what is this?"

"What else can it be?" Lu Dayuan was stunned and said.

"Yes, land, whose land is this?" Huo Guang looked directly at the other party, "Is it our Ming Dynasty or your Daqin? Deng Pu, Deng Su died on our Ming Dynasty land, are we blamed? The robbers came to him and the master was not allowed to defend himself? What is this logic? Is this the truth of your Daqin?"

Lu Dayuan was silent.

"The reason of our Ming Dynasty is that people don't offend me, I won't offend others. If people offend me, I will kill people. When they come, don't go back. Don't they want our land? Then stay on this land forever." Huo Guang said proudly. "General Lu, what about you, do you want to stay on this land forever?"

"The general died in a hundred battles, only death!" Lu Dayuan said sternly.

"Where are them?" Huo Guang pointed behind Lu Dayuan.

"The warriors of Qin have never been afraid of death." Lu Dayuan closed his eyes slightly, and his voice suddenly became heavier.

"How many old, weak, women and children are there behind ten thousand Qin warriors?" Huo Guang stared at Lu Dayuan and asked. "It's easy to die. What about those people after they die?"

Lu Dayuan looked up and looked at Huo Guang, "Do you want to persuade me to surrender?"

"Yes, I'm here to persuade the surrender. General Lu, you have also seen the current situation. You can't escape or win. If you resist stubbornly, you will be destined to die here in vain, and this can be avoided." Huo Guang said.

Lu Daguang's mouth twitched: "Mr. Huo, there has never been a precedent for institutional surrender in the history of the Qin Dynasty, and I will not be the first person to set this precedent."

"Afraid of carrying a slander?" Huo Guang smiled: "Write a mere infamy can save tens of thousands of lives. How should General Lu choose?"

Lu Dayuan closed his eyes in pain and shook his head without saying a word.

Huo Guang simply sat down and looked up at Lu Dayuan. Lu Dayuan hesitated for a moment, but still sat down.

"General Lu, Daqin and Daming, the relationship has always been good. Unfortunately, your Kaiping King Deng Hong was bewitched by the Qin people and thought he had an opportunity to take advantage of it, but he would not lose all the rice. This battle was not what we wanted to fight. Even if we don't want to continue to expand the war, I think you know that we are in the east and are still facing the offensive of Qi people, so I think, soon, we will have a negotiation with you Daqin." Huo Guang said lightly.

"Peace talk?" Lu Dayuan raised his head suddenly.

"Of course, there will be negotiations. Now, I think you can't fight anymore, and we don't want to fight anymore. Deng's family, hehe, it's probably a storm now. I know that the Deng's border army, which is known as a 100,000 army, has a real elite of up to 50,000 people. Others are too shabby. Now these 50,000 elite soldiers and 20,000 cavalry can be considered as the entire army destroyed. The 20,000 people in Longyou will also suffer a great loss. Next, they will lose even greater. Let me tell you this, your 10,000 people may become Deng Hong's life-saving straw, and surrender to us now. If the negotiations go smoothly in the future, it is not impossible for us to put you back as a whole? As long as Deng Hong is willing to pay the price." Huo Guang said leisurely: "I think Deng Hong must not be counting on Xiao Qiang now, right?"

Lu Dayuan took a deep breath.

"King Kaiping organized this raid on you. Are you still willing to support Kaiping?" he asked in confusion.

"Of course, if I guessed correctly, we would be more willing to support Kaiping King than before, because he is much weaker than before. Without the master Deng Pu and Deng Su's 20,000 cavalry, he would rely more on us than before. Do you think it's right?" Huo Guang looked at Lu Daguang with a smile. "A weak Kaiping King is more liked than a powerful Kaiping King."

Lu Dayuan stared at Huo Guang. The other party said it was heartbroken, and the meaning inside was also very obvious, that is, the Ming Dynasty hoped that the Qin Dynasty would continue to maintain fierce internal political struggles. When the Kaiping King became weaker, the Bian family became stronger, and Xiao Qiang would be more confident in establishing his own wings. In the past, the Qin Dynasty was a three-legged tripod, but later it became a four-way competition, and the domestic situation would be even more chaotic. The Ming Dynasty would inevitably fuel the fire, increase conflicts between all parties, and continue to weaken the Qin State.

I understand the truth, but can I refuse? I will die here in battle and cannot stop the defeat of Kaiping King. Kaiping King completely loses power. Not to mention the glorious glory of death in battle, I am afraid even my family will be implicated. I am the Deng family's confidant general.
