"De Mao, how is Ma Yong doing now?" Yang Qing called Zhou Xing and asked.

Zhou Xing replied: "His wounds were bandaged yesterday and he is no longer seriously injured. He is now locked up in the camp."

"Okay, come here. Someone has a plan, it must be like this..."

At noon, Yang Qing suspended the siege and withdrew his troops and returned to the camp. Ma Yong, who was locked up in a military tent in the back camp, heard that the fighting outside had stopped. He knew that the Han army had stopped attacking the city, and was about to try to see what was going on outside.

What happened? Suddenly two soldiers came in.

A soldier said: "Ma Yong, my general wants to see you, please come with us." After that, he and another soldier lifted Ma Yong from the ground without letting him loose, and escorted him out of the tent.

Walk out to the front camp.

Ma Yong finally saw the light of day and wanted to take a good look at the Han army's barracks. When he was looking around, he suddenly saw several people walking towards the right front, embracing a scribe.

When the two teams missed each other, Ma Yong heard one of the leading generals say to the scribe: "Liao joins the army. The Prime Minister is overly concerned. This Xiangwu City can be destroyed in a day or night, why bother sending reinforcements?"

"Haha, the Prime Minister is also a little worried, and the puppet Wei court has sent reinforcements..."

The two groups of people walked further and further away, and Ma Yong could no longer hear him. However, from the few words of the two people, he knew that Zhuge Liang had sent another army to reinforce Yang Qing. As for the reason, it seemed that the imperial court had sent reinforcements.

Zhuge Liang was a little anxious and worried.

Ma Yong secretly thought bitterly. Although it was good news that the imperial court had sent reinforcements, water from far away could not quench the thirst nearby. Xiangwu City could not survive for a few days. The Shu army came to support again. What should Mr. Youfu do?

?

He was thinking a lot and was anxious, but he didn't expect that he had arrived at his destination. When he looked up, it seemed to be the central tent of the Shu army. Could it be that Yang Qing wanted to see him?

Sure enough, the two sergeants who escorted him quickly verified his suspicion, and the leading sergeant reported outside the tent: "To inform you, your Majesty, Ma Yong has arrived."

"Invite him in."

Two sergeants escorted Ma Yong in. Yang Qing laughed and said, "Hurry up and untie Ma Changshi." The soldiers obeyed the order and untied Ma Yong.

"Ma Changshi suffered a lot. Is the injury feeling better?"

Ma Yong didn't know what Yang Qing had in mind, so he replied coldly: "Thank you, General Yang, for your concern. I can bear the pain."

"Alas, it was not X's original intention for the two armies to fight. It was just that your eunuch insisted on going his own way, which caused the soldiers to suffer and the people to suffer."

Yang Qing sighed, Ma Yong was unmoved and just stood there without saying a word. Yang Qing didn't take it seriously and said: "Ma Changshi, this Xiangwu City will be destroyed by our army within two days at most."

Breaking through, do you think so or not?"

"This..." After Ma Yong hesitated for a moment, he still tilted his head and replied honestly: "Your army has sophisticated equipment and strong combat power. I, Xiangwu, really can't resist it."

"Chang Shi is an honest man." Yang Qing said: "In this case, I did not hide anything from Chang Shi. Prime Minister Zhuge sent another supporting army to urge me to break the city quickly. In the afternoon, our army is afraid that the whole army will attack fiercely.

.

In order to prevent the people of Xiangwu from suffering greater casualties, I have decided to give your eunuch another chance. As long as he opens the city and surrenders, I will guarantee that the army will not touch the people at all, and that all the officials in Longxi will still have their official positions."

"General, you are benevolent and righteous." Ma Yong couldn't help but admire him.

Yang Qingdao: "So I hope that Ma Changshi can enter the city to persuade Lord Youfu to surrender. I wonder what Changshi wants?"

Ma Yong didn't expect that Yang Qing would be willing to let him go back. Thinking that he could use this to escape, he couldn't help but feel happy. However, when he thought about the current situation and the Liao Canjun he had just met, he immediately realized that there was no use in escaping and going back.

, it is better to persuade the prefect to surrender to the Han Dynasty in order to protect the officials and people in the city.

After thinking for a long time, Ma Yong raised his hands and replied: "Your army is really a benevolent and righteous army, I admire you. In order to avoid further damage to the two armies, Yong is willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses."

"Okay." Yang Qing left the hall excitedly, holding Ma Yong's hands and said: "Chang Shi Gaoyi, Yang, the generals of the two armies, have expressed their gratitude. There is just one thing, I hope that Chang Shi will remember it."

"Please give me your orders, General."

Yang Qingdao: "I also asked Chang Shi to let Mr. Youfu reply within half an hour after entering the city. Liao Canjun led the reinforcements from afar and wanted to break the city and achieve great success, but he was unwilling to surrender just because Yang begged him sincerely.

After half a day, I was allowed to give it a try.

Therefore, Chang Shi must ask Mr. Youfu to reply within half an hour, otherwise when the time is up, I will have to attack the city again."

"That's it." Ma Yong said: "General, don't worry, I will definitely convince Mr. Youfu within half an hour."

Yang Qing was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Okay. Come, send Ma Changshi out of the camp."

After Ma Yong left, Zhou Xing walked into the tent. Yang Qing and him looked at each other and laughed. It turned out that there was no Liao Canjun coming with reinforcements at all. This was all a scene played by Yang Qing and Zhou Xing.

He made a show so that Ma Yong could return to the city and persuade You Chu to surrender.

Ma Yong returned to the city, met with You Chu, explained the whole story, and conveyed Yang Qing's words to persuade him to surrender to the Han Dynasty.

"Master Fu, the Han army is well-equipped and well-trained. Although the number of troops is small, it is powerful in combat. Moreover, Zhuge Liang's governance is clear and clear, the country's power is growing day by day, and he has Yang Qing and other outstanding men under his command. Maybe they can really rejuvenate the Han Dynasty.

And even if they cannot return to the old capital and unify the world, I think there is no problem for them to occupy the land in Longxi. Therefore, for the sake of the people of Longxi, I ask the Lord to lead the people of Longxi to rebel against Wei and return to the Han Dynasty." Ma Yong stood up and bowed his hands.

.

You Chu was silent for a long time, then sighed and said: "You get up first. Even if I don't surrender, Xiangwu City can't be defended.

The Liao Canjun you saw must be Liao Hua. Zhuge Liang sent him to support Yang Qing. On the one hand, he was to quickly recall Yang Qing to deal with the reinforcements from the east. Secondly, he was determined to win Longxi.

I thought I could hold on to the city until reinforcements arrived, but I didn't know that the Shu army was so powerful, and Yang Qing was not an easy person. Alas, the current situation is not because I don't want to be loyal to Emperor Wei, it's actually dictated by the situation.

, for the sake of the people, I have to surrender to the Shu Han."

You Chu nodded and said: "Didn't Yang Mingzhi only give us half an hour? It's almost time. Go tell Yang Mingzhi quickly and say that I, You Chu, am willing to lead the officials and people of Longxi to surrender to the Han Dynasty."

"Yes, Mr. Fu." Ma Yong responded solemnly.

Half an hour later, the lowering flag was erected on Xiangwu City and the city gate was opened wide. You Chufu held the seal ribbon and the household registration album, and led all the officials in the city out of the city to surrender. Yang Qing helped him up and comforted him, and taught You Chuyi how to surrender.

As the prefect, the rest of the officials maintained their official positions as before, so all the officials were sincerely convinced.

Yang Qing took You Chu's hand and entered the city side by side with him. The people heard that You Chu was still the governor, and saw that the Han army had strict military discipline, so they all returned to their homes and felt at ease.

When he arrived at the prefect's mansion, You Chu wrote another document ordering the remaining five counties to surrender to the Han Dynasty. The prefect and the county governor had surrendered. It was expected that the remaining five counties would object, but just in case, Yang Qing ordered 500 soldiers and horses to go with them.

Five hundred soldiers from Longxi County went to receive it.

That night, You Chu held a wine banquet in the government office, and celebrated and drank with Yang Qing and others. When the dinner was over, the guests and hosts had a great time.

On the morning of the next day, Yang Qing was about to lead his troops back to Nan'an, so he bid farewell to You Chu. You Chu showed his sincerity and presented a batch of grain and 600 army horses.

Yang Qing was overjoyed and said to himself: "People say there are many horses in Longxi, and it's true." Adding the original 600 horses and those captured the day before, these 600 horses now have nearly a thousand horses in the army. Yang Qing immediately selected those who are good at riding.

Soldiers formed cavalry.

Fortunately, many Qiang soldiers knew how to ride horses when they were in Nanzhong, so the cavalry was quickly formed. Although they were not familiar with the horses in the north, there was still no problem in marching on horseback.
