A night of silence Early the next morning.
In the Han army camp.
Liu Qi ordered the soldiers to break out of camp and march towards Taishan City.
On the way, he also joined up with the 30,000 troops led by Zhao Yun and headed there together.
When we arrived at Taishan City. , I saw.
The city wall of Taishan City was completely empty, with no soldiers stationed there.
Even the green flags representing Qi had disappeared.
The city gate is wide open.
But in front of the city gate, there were tens of thousands of people standing.
They were the city's defenders.
They did not hold weapons and had taken off their armor.
In front of tens of thousands of people.
Chen Deng and the city guard will line up side by side.
Twenty blood-clad guards, with their horsemen holding sabers, lined up behind them.
Wait until Liu Qi leads the army to arrive.
Chen Deng, the city guard general, and twenty blood-clothed guards came forward to greet them.
"I have lived up to your majesty's trust and have persuaded the Taishan City defenders to surrender," Chen Deng said with a cupped hand.
"The crime will be brought before your majesty," the Lord of Taishan City said on his knees.
However, the twenty blood-clothed guards bypassed and returned to the queue.
They only escorted Chen Deng to complete the mission.
Now that the matter is over, they will not escort Chen Deng, but will return to the team.
After all, their main task is to protect Liu Qi.
Were it not for Liu Qi's order, they would not have gone to protect Chen Deng, because they were Liu Qi's exclusive troops and were loyal to Liu Qi.
Although Dian Wei, as the leader of the Blood Clothes Guards, could also order them, they would only obey Liu Qi's orders if they went against Liu Qi's orders.
This is the main reason why they became the Blood Guards.
Liu Qi looked at Chen Deng, who was bending down to salute, and the Taishan City guard who was kneeling in front of him, with joy flashing in his eyes.
After all, Chen Deng was able to persuade the defenders to surrender to Taishan City, which also saved a lot of things and did not need to waste too much time here.
Before the results come out. , Last night, he was still a little worried, and he didn't lie down until very late.
But when it was almost dawn.
With the report, Chen Deng had successfully persuaded the Taishan City defenders to surrender, so he integrated the army early in the morning, pulled out the camps, and headed towards Taishan City.
It seems now.
It was indeed a very wise choice to persuade Chen Deng to work for him.
Otherwise, it would not be so easy to capture Taishan City.
It might take some time, but by then, things might be different. .
"There's no need to be too polite, just stay calm" Liu Qi said with a smile, "Yuanlong should be the first to take credit this time."
"I don't dare to take credit, it's just your majesty's arrangement," Chen Deng said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty" The Taishan city guard also bowed, stood up from the ground, and then stepped aside, bending slightly to show respect.
He let Chen Deng into the city last night, and he didn't do anything extreme.
Instead, he took Chen Deng to the mansion and talked all night.
I also figured it out.
According to the current situation, their Taishan City cannot withstand the Han army's attack.
What's more, Liu Bei's actions also made him feel very chilled.
His originally wavering mood became truly firm under Chen Deng's persuasion.
In other words, I had an idea before.
It's just that Chen Deng's arrival gave him a good reason to feel at ease.

Liu Qi didn't know what the Taishan City guard was thinking.
He looked at Chen Deng and waved his hand: "Yuanlong, you don't have to be humble.
This matter was completed by you, and it was you who proposed it.
It's not an exaggeration to count it as the first contribution.
What's more, I am Those who are clear about rewards and punishments, merit is merit and fault is fault, so there is no need to flatter me too much.
Even so, there will not be too much reward."
To the end.
Liu Qi also said something joking.
"Promise, I will definitely keep it in mind," Chen Deng said with cupped hands.
There was a glint in his eyes.
Although Liu Qi's last sentence was a joke, he could hear Liu Qi's hidden meaning, that is, unlike Liu Bei, Liu Qi did not need flatterers, but real people.
From this point of view, we can see the gap between Liu Bei and Liu Qi.
Liu Bei was not unjustly defeated Then he also handed over and retreated to one side.
Liu Qi nodded, then looked at the Taishan City guard and said, "It is a blessing for the soldiers that you can open the city and surrender.
After all, once a war begins, there will inevitably be damage.
This is not what I want to see, because you This choice also saves a big battle.
You are willing to follow me and gallop in the Central Plains."
"I will die for my sins and I will never give up.
I am willing to serve as your majesty's vanguard," the Taishan city guard said on his knees.
There was an excited look on his face.
After all, what Liu Qi said meant that he would be reused, so how could he not be excited?
Moreover, from Chen Deng's words and rumors from the outside, he also knew the system under Liu Qi's rule.
Those who are capable are promoted, those who are unable are demoted, regardless of origin.
If you have ability, even if you are a commoner, you can be reused, but if you don't have ability, no matter what kind of wealthy noble family you are, you will not be reused.
As long as he shows his talent, then.
"Get up," Liu Qi said.
After all, the Taishan City Guard General is a surrendered general, and he still needs to show some expression.
Otherwise, if someone surrenders but is given a false position, how can anyone surrender in the future, and the Taishan City Guard General will be dissatisfied.
As for what the Taishan City Guards can achieve in the future, it depends on his own abilities.
"promise" The Taishan city guard raised his hand and stood up from the ground. , After settling Chen Deng and Taishan City defenders.
Liu Qi then turned to Zhao Yun and said: "Zilong, it's up to you to recruit the defenders of Taishan City, and let the army rest outside the city without setting up camp.
After half a day, they will continue marching towards Linzi."
"Nuo" Zhao Yun said with cupped hands.
"The rest of the people will follow me into the city," Liu Qi continued.
"promise" Guo Jia and others did not have any objections. immediately.
Liu Qi took Guo Jia and others, as well as three hundred blood-clad guards, and walked towards Taishan City.
But Zhao Yun stayed outside the city, settling his army and gathering tens of thousands of Taishan City defenders.
After all, I stayed here for a short time.
All they could do was to collect the garrison of Taishan City, disorganize their organization, add them to the army, and then on the way to Linzi, let these surrendered troops return home.
Moreover, the defense in the city also needs to be dealt with briefly.
There will not be too many soldiers and horses left, and only some of the own soldiers and horses will be deployed to garrison.
This can at least prevent any accidents from happening.
What's more, just to defend the city, there is no need for so many soldiers and horses.
With thousands of soldiers and horses, it is enough to guard Taishan City.
Half a day's time.

It's fast and it's fast, it's slow and it's slow.
After simply handling the matters in Taishan City.
Liu Qi then led everyone out of Taishan City, gathered the army, and ordered a partial general to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Taishan City.
Then he continued to lead the army towards Linzi.
The former garrison of Taishan City and tens of thousands of garrison troops also followed
