Chapter 375 The lord is here(2/2)
Now Mingguan realized that Mr. Zhao could no longer hold on in Qingzhou, so he sent Minister of the Interior Fan Wencheng with Obai's letter to try to recruit Dorgon to surrender and persuade Dorgon to go north.
"Master Zhao only has one county, and everything south of the Yellow River will be owned by Chu Zimou. The general has enmity with Chu Zimou. It is unlikely that he will let the general go. Please make up your mind as soon as possible and join the Ming Dynasty."
"I heard that the Liaodong governor is still fighting in Youzhou, I don't know what to do?"
"To be honest, the governor has been unable to attack Yuan Shao for a long time, and his troops are out of food. I'm afraid he will have to withdraw his troops soon."
"The Governor of Liaodong cannot take over Youzhou, so what's the benefit of me joining the Governor of Liaodong?"
"The prefect plans to return to Liaodong in order to pacify the Koryo Kingdom and some nomadic, fishing and hunting tribes in the north, and then try to enter Youzhou. Once the Koryo Kingdom is annexed, the lord's population will be larger. When the trouble is cleared, and he enters Youzhou again, he will be unstoppable.
"My lord does not lack cavalry, but only talents like generals. Please don't doubt my lord's sincerity, general. The south of the Yellow River has been occupied by Chu Zi. Apart from going north, where else can the general go?"
Aobai was Dorgon's subordinate when he was in Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army. Fan Wencheng mentioned the friendship between Aobai and Dorgon and persuaded Dorgon to leave Qingzhou and go to Liaodong.
"Master Zhao treats me well..."
Dorgon couldn't help but be moved. The only thing that made him take action was Master Zhao's kindness to him.
"The general's life is about to be in danger, why should he care about his past kindness?"
"I can persuade Mr. Zhao to go to Liaodong together and join the Liaodong prefect."
"It's not necessary. The prefect has sent people to lobby Mr. Zhao many times, but Mr. Zhao has no intention of going north and seems to be inclined to surrender to Chu Zimou. If you continue to follow Mr. Zhao, you will only die."
"Master Zhao wants to surrender to Chu Zimou?!"
Fan Wencheng moved Dorgon with his words.
Dorgon had a grudge against Zhao Yun and could not seek refuge with Chutian. In order to appease Zhao Yun, Chutian would still be in a very dangerous situation even if he did not kill him.
If this is really the case, Dorgon will consider seeking refuge with other princes - in order to save his own life.
"Ming Guan is considered a promising hero. Anyway, my relationship with Mr. Zhao ends here. I led hundreds of Eight Banners cavalry and used the teleportation array in Linzi City to go to Xiangping City in Liaodong. I hope that the conditions he promised me will be fulfilled.
It can be fulfilled one by one.”
Dorgon knew that he could survive as much as possible only by seeking refuge with a prince who was on an equal footing with Chu Zimou. Mingguan was one of the few princes who could challenge Chu Zimou.
After deciding to leave Zhao Gongzi's forces, Dorgon, as a general, easily controlled the teleportation array and left the dangerous Linzi City with hundreds of Eight Banners cavalry.
Dorgon's departure without saying goodbye caused the defenders of Linzi City to panic. Zhou Yafu's army might attack from the direction of Beihai at any time. At the critical moment, Dorgon, as a general, escaped, which was a heavy blow to the morale of the defenders!
"If I were to capture that ungrateful person alive, I would cut him into pieces!"
Xue Wanche was furious when he learned that Dorgon had escaped from the battle!
As a general who had followed Mr. Zhao for a long time, he was the only one who was most loyal to Mr. Zhao. When he saw other generals betraying him, he was furious.
"Let him be."
Mr. Zhao's enthusiasm waned, and he realized that he was no longer qualified to maintain his status as a prince. The current situation was almost unsolvable for him and Tian Qi, the two Qingzhou princes.
