Zhang Xiu continued: "all of you should know that Zhang Ren is our elder martial brother. But my elder brother is always loyal and righteous. When he was in Baishui County, although he was captured by my king, he would rather die than surrender. "
"Therefore, I released my elder martial brother."
"When he arrived at Jiameng pass, he still led the troops to resist and was unwilling to surrender."
"It's still the same at Jianmen pass."
"My elder martial brother is very righteous. I admire him deeply. I think that there are two reasons why elder martial brother bet with me this time. First, I treat my elder martial brother very well, although I don't have much kindness. Second, Liu Zhang treats his elder martial brother with kindness. He feels extremely uncomfortable in the middle. "
"So, elder martial brother chose to make a bet."
Zhang Xiu talked with great eloquence and continued: "once the elder martial brother wins, he will be worthy of Liu Zhang's promotion. Once the elder martial brother loses, he will do his best and be worthy of Liu Zhang's promotion. Then he will be able to fulfill his friendship with my elder martial brother."
When he said that, he took a look.
At this moment, Zhang Ren's eyes were immediately moist, and his inner emotions were constantly fluctuating.
Zhang Xiu knows him!
Zhang Xiu's words, said that his heart was up.
Liu Zhang treated him well!
Zhang Xiu treated him very well!
The palm and the back of his hand were all meat. He was extremely embarrassed, so he had a bet.
Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Ren's change of manner and continued: "now, my king has broken the Jianmen pass. Elder martial brother Zhang Ren has been subordinated to the king and served for him. "
"You admire your elder martial brother and are willing to obey his orders, so you all surrender."
"Not all of you are willing to surrender."
"I have always believed in it. If you try to change things, you can only be willing to do things for a long time. Just like this, I was able to leave my elder martial brother in baishuiguan, but he was absent-minded. I would rather release him and let him go. "
"It's the same for elder martial brothers, and it's the same for you."
"It's my pleasure that you are willing to submit to me. However, if you are not willing to submit to our king, our king will not force you, nor will you follow the example of Cao Cao to slaughter prisoners. This is not our king's style. "
Zhang Xiu's words seem simple, but they are full of bewitching.
He focused on two things.
The first thing is Zhang Ren's obedience. With Zhang Ren's surrender, it can be said that the vast majority of the soldiers may choose to surrender to Zhang Xiu and will no longer be attached to Liu Zhang.
The second thing is that Zhang Xiu doesn't force anyone. Those who are willing to surrender are welcome. Zhang Xiu doesn't want to be submissive, but she doesn't ask for it, and she does something like massacre.
In this way, it can cause the prisoner to gain fame.
Let them recognize Zhang Xiu.
This is the reason why Zhang Xiu wants to lecture in front of everyone. He wants to accept the heart of all prisoners.
After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "so now, I have something to announce. That is, although all of you have chosen to submit, I will not force you to do so. "
"Those who are willing to follow Zhang Ren and submit to the king. Now go all the way to the right and move all the way to the open space on the right. Those who do not want to surrender will stay where they are. "
"After the candidates who are not willing to surrender are determined, we will arrange for people to prepare dry food. After receiving the dry food, you can leave Jianmen pass and go south to return to Chengdu."
"All right, now!"
Zhang Xiu gave the order directly.
After Zhang Xiu's order was given, the soldiers moved to the right quickly.
It's moving pretty fast.
However, the number of soldiers in the original formation was reduced. In less than a quarter of an hour, there was almost no more movement. All the soldiers were quiet.
Zhang Xiu's eyes fell on the soldiers who were standing still.
Roughly speaking, there are about a thousand people.
At this moment, Zhang Xiu's mouth stirred up a smile. There were nearly 30000 soldiers, but in the end there were only more than 1000 soldiers. She was unwilling to surrender and was willing to be loyal to Liu Zhang. What a irony.
But Zhang Xiu was not in a hurry to make a conclusion. She said again: "now, the two camps have been roughly distinguished. But in the end, I'll give you another quarter of an hour. If a soldier does not move, he can reconsider whether he wants to move his position. Soldiers who have left their places and are willing to surrender can go back now. In a word, until the end, I will accept any decision you make. "
Zhang Xiu continues to wait.
At this time, there were a thousand people standing alone, and finally something happened again.
More than 200 people left and went to the camp of submission. On the contrary, the soldiers who had already moved to the camp of submission. No one moved any more. They were all determined to submit.
In fact, the great disparity between Zhang Xiu and Liu Zhang is clear at a glance.
Zhang Xiu fought against Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and beat back the Allied forces of the three families. Even now, Zhang Xiu is the king of Qin with strong troops. In particular, Liu Zhang's last line of defense, Jianmen pass, fell into Zhang Xiu's hands.At this time, Liu Zhang was almost unstoppable.
Although the ordinary soldiers in the army don't know any tactics, March and array, and have no strategic vision, they understand a simple truth, that is, who is stronger can see through at a glance.
That's the soldier's choice.
A quarter of an hour later, fewer than 800 people were finally unwilling to surrender.
Zhang Xiu nodded and said: "since the camp has been clearly distributed, then everything will not change. Where is Zhang
"I'm in a humble position!"
Zhang Ren stood up and saluted.
He has been obedient to Zhang Xiu, in front of all the soldiers, Zhang Xiu shouts, he is to stand up.
Zhang Xiu's face was solemn and said in a deep voice: "I worship you as general Wuwei and take charge of all the soldiers who have surrendered in yuanyizhou. Its barracks are called "loyal army!"
Zhongyi army, the name of the army, is a praise to Zhang Ren and also a imprisonment for Zhang Ren. After Zhang Ren led the Zhongyi army, he could only serve Zhang Xiu wholeheartedly.
After hearing this, Zhang Ren was surprised.
He has just surrendered to Zhang Xiu. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiu should not let him take charge of the army. But now, Zhang Xiu not only ordered him to take charge of the army, but also gave him a name. You know, the main armies under Zhang Xiu's command all have their own names. Now that he is in charge of the loyal army, he becomes one of the legitimate generals under Zhang Xiu's command.
Zhang Renshen took a breath, but he didn't hesitate. Since he was obedient to Zhang Xiu, he thought he was working for Zhang Xiu, so he lifted up his robe, knelt down on one knee and said, "I will obey you!"
"The loyal army will live up to the high expectations of the king of Qin."
"The loyal army is powerful!"
Zhang Ren exclaimed.
With Zhang Ren's order, the rest of the soldiers who had surrendered all knelt down on one knee, and followed Zhang Ren's call for the strength of the loyal and righteous army. The hearts of the soldiers were very happy.
They are not only very happy to follow Zhang shunxiu, but also very happy to return.
Everyone's heart is very solid.
On the contrary, there are more than 800 soldiers who are still sticking to it. When these people see this scene, many people have regrets in their hearts. But in this scene, they have no choice but to continue to go down.
Zhang Xiu and all the other soldiers raised their hands to signal the end of the shouting. Zhang Ren and the soldiers of the loyal army all stood up. At a glance, Zhang Xiu knew that these people did not belong to Liu Zhang, but to Zhang Xiu.
Not only Zhang Ren!
It's because of his respect for all these soldiers.
Especially Zhang Ren's temperament, Zhang Xiu is clear, in today's situation, Zhang Ren will only be determined to serve him.
Zhang Xiu didn't speak any more. She arranged for Chen Dao to mobilize dry food and distribute it to 800 soldiers who were unwilling to surrender. Then she ordered them to leave.
At the end of the adjustment of the army, Zhang Xiu waves her hand and dismisses the army.
Zhang Ren's inner emotions are a little complicated.
Still, he stepped down. Today's Zhang Ren feels that Zhang Xiu attaches great importance to him. Apart from his relationship with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu formed a separate army, which was based on the former Yizhou army.
Zhang Ren's heart is rather complicated. He can't tell the truth clearly. Zhang Xiu didn't take charge of Zhang Ren, because a lot of things need Zhang Ren to digest slowly.
