Chapter 472

After ending the call with Liu Bian, Guan Yu said to the dazed Guan Hai:

"Guan Hai, you have heard His Majesty's decree, right!"

Guan Hai, after hearing Guan Yu's words, came back to his senses.

Immediately, his eyes were filled with awe as he looked at Guan Yu and the others.

Such heaven-defying methods were truly unheard of.

"General Guan, this commoner heard clearly!"

Seeing this, Guan Yu also nodded with satisfaction.

Wasn't the reason he contacted Liu Bian on the spot to intimidate Guan Hai!

Judging from Guan Hai's performance just now, the effect was clearly very good.

"Since that is the case, this general will go to Rencheng Kingdom in three days to accept your surrender!"

Immediately, Guan Yu said solemnly to Guan Hai.

"Please rest assured, General Guan; this commoner will go back immediately and tell the Sage Maiden this good news!"

After hearing Guan Yu's words, Guan Hai was overjoyed.

He immediately said seriously to Guan Yu.

At the same time, Huang Zhong also arrived at the foot of Ye County City in Nanyang Commandery.

"General Huang, let this general go and challenge them!"

Vermillion Bird Army General Wen Chou said to Huang Zhong.

At this time, Ye County City had already been surrounded by the two hundred thousand Vermillion Bird Legion.

"Alright, go and try!"

"However, Li Feng will most likely not dare to come out of the city to fight!"

Hearing this, Huang Zhong also did not stop him.

He only reminded him.

"This general accepts the order!"

Wen Chou, hearing this, cupped his fists to Huang Zhong and arrived below the city walls.

However, after he cursed for a long time, Li Feng on the city walls simply did not come out to fight.

"Pah, this Li Feng is truly a coward!"

Wen Chou, having no results, returned to the formation and cursed.

"Hahaha, isn't that obvious?"

"With so many of us, as long as Li Feng isn't stupid, he won't come out of the city!"

Hearing Wen Chou's words, Xiahou Dun immediately said with a smile.

"Alright, tell the soldiers, in half a quarter-hour, if Li Feng still doesn't surrender, we attack the city!"

At this time, Huang Zhong also said to the generals.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, the few responded loudly and solemnly.

Inside Ye County City.

"General, my lord did not dispatch reinforcements to support us."

"We only have five thousand men; this simply cannot block Huang Zhong's two hundred thousand Vermillion Bird troops!"

At this time, the deputy general said to Li Feng anxiously.

"That's right, General, with just our five thousand men, how is this possible!"

"This is clearly wanting us to die!"

Others on the side also said to Li Feng.

Hearing the crowd's words, Li Feng's already ugly face became even uglier.

"You are right. Yuan Shu, that old brat—I've been fighting for him here."

"Since he is heartless, don't blame us for being unrighteous!"

Li Feng's face turned fierce, and he said to the crowd with full malice:

"Since Yuan Shu doesn't want us to live, then we will go all the way and surrender directly to Huang Zhong!"

Li Feng's subordinates, upon hearing his words, all showed joy.

"General is right! Since Yuan Shu doesn't care whether we live or die, we will surrender to the imperial court!"

"Yes, surrender!"

And at this time, Huang Zhong also arrived below the city and shouted loudly to Li Feng in Ye County City:

"Li Feng, I will give you another half a quarter-hour. If you don't surrender after half a quarter-hour, I will order the army to attack the city!"

After Huang Zhong finished speaking, he wanted to leave.

At this time, Li Feng suddenly poked his head out from the city wall and shouted loudly to Huang Zhong:

"General Huang, this general is willing to submit to the imperial court!"

Hearing this, Huang Zhong's footsteps stopped.

Turning to look at Li Feng on the city wall, he said loudly:

"Li Feng, are you serious?"

Li Feng, upon hearing this, immediately replied:

"General Huang, to tell you the truth, Yuan Shu actually only told us five thousand men to resist your two hundred thousand-strong army."

"This is clearly wanting us to die!"

"Therefore, this general is willing to surrender to General Huang!"

Subsequently, Li Feng led his men to open the city gates and surrendered to Huang Zhong.

And at this time, the person sent by Yuan Shu happened to see this scene.

Scared, he turned and ran.

He had to tell Yuan Shu about this immediately.

And Li Feng and the others, at this close distance, finally felt the power of the Vermillion Bird Legion.

He felt that the aura of every one of the two hundred thousand Vermillion Bird Legion soldiers was stronger than his own.

Immediately, he asked Huang Zhong in disbelief:

"General Huang, why do I feel that the aura of these soldiers is stronger than mine?"

Hearing Li Feng's words, Huang Zhong and the others all smiled.

"Your feeling is not wrong. My Vermillion Bird Legion, all two hundred thousand men, have the strength of First-rate Martial Generals or above."

"How is this possible?"

Hearing this, Li Feng was shocked.

"There is nothing impossible. Presumably, you should have heard about martial arts."

"Now, the soldiers of the six great legions of our Great Han Empire have all cultivated martial arts and all have the strength of First-rate Martial Generals."

"Hiss..."

Li Feng was now shocked to the point of numbness.

Calculating this way, the soldiers who had reached the strength of First-rate Martial Generals

totaled over a million.

What a powerful force this was!

"You don't need to worry. Any soldier of our Great Han Empire can cultivate martial arts techniques."

"In a while, I will have someone teach you the cultivation techniques."

At this time, Huang Zhong said to Li Feng.

Hearing this, Li Feng thanked him hurriedly:

"This general thanks the general!"

At this moment, he was very glad he had chosen to surrender.

Otherwise, he truly dared not imagine the consequences.

After the group entered Ye County City, Huang Zhong pushed out the civil official dispatched by Xun Yu.

He also appointed Li Feng as the guard general of Ye County.

He himself continued to lead the army to kill toward Wan City, where Yuan Shu was.

As for Li Feng, after witnessing the power of the imperial army, Huang Zhong did not think he would rebel.

Moreover, the civil officials of the Great Han Empire also possessed cultivation.

Although their combat power was not as strong as the generals',

they were not something Li Feng, with the strength of a Second-rate Martial General, could resist.

At the same time, the fifty thousand navy troops led by Gan Ning had also entered the Yangtze River.

In a few days, they would reach the border of Xiangyang.

By then, what awaited Yuan Shu would be a pincer attack from land and water armies.

And at this time, Zhang Liao's Xuanwu Legion had also finally crossed Yuzhou.

Arriving at Lujiang Commandery in Yangzhou.

On the way, he had already received news from Taishi Ci.

At this time, Wujun had already been taken by Taishi Ci.

The two discussed and decided to attack south from Lujiang Commandery, Jiujiang Commandery, Danyang Commandery, and Wujun.

As for Liu Yao's Yangzhou navy, that would be left to Taishi Ci's fifty thousand Great Han navy to deal with.

Although Liu Yao had one hundred thousand Yangzhou navy troops under his command,

their warships and soldier strength

were not as powerful as Taishi Ci's Great Han navy.

Moreover, Taishi Ci had already taken Wujun.

Up to this point, the Yangzhou navy no longer posed a threat to Zhang Liao.

After the most important Yangtze River in Yangzhou and Jingzhou was settled,

the rest was just the infantry attacking cities and seizing territory.
