Three days after the Tang army was renovated, Fang Li left a thousand soldiers to guard the Wang Guan, and brought Liu Bei and his 40,000 Tang and Wei coalition forces under his command to Quwo to meet with Cao Cao's army. In December, Fang Li's army arrived at the city of Quwo. With Cao Cao's 50,000 soldiers and horses, nearly 90,000 Tang and Wei coalition forces surrounded Quwo City.

This scene was staged under Daliang City not long ago. The difference is that when facing the empty garrison of Quwo City, the Tang and Wei army, which had nearly five times the number of troops, was bound to win. The Jin State would not return it until it was destroyed.

Even Wei Liao, who had made up his mind to change to the wise master, couldn't help but feel sad when he saw this extremely familiar scene.

The Tang State, which obtained a large tract of land in Jin State, was no longer the weak Wei State could beat. I am afraid that from now on, the Wei State would no longer consider how to work hard to govern the horse and trample the world, but instead try every means to please Fang Li, and use everything that Wei State could give to exchange for the tolerance of the Tang State and avoid the destruction of the country.

In panic, Gui Zhu ordered the recruitment of strong men in Quwo City and surrounding areas to serve as troops. At least he had gathered nearly 20,000 troops and all piled up on the Quwo City Wall to prepare to fight against the Tang army to trap beasts.

After the winter north of the Yellow River, the temperature dropped sharply, reaching minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by the cold, Fang Li planned to resolve the battle as soon as possible. He followed Wei Liao's advice and scattered 90,000 troops on all sides of the city walls, launching a fierce attack regardless of the primary or secondary, trying to make the mobs that were temporarily gathered in Jin State busy putting fires on all sides and destroying their morale.

Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and other generals were each responsible for one sect, leading the powerful generals such as Ying Bu, Liu Feng, Ju Yi, Yan Liang, and Wei Liao, the commander of the Wei army, to attack day and night. Fang Li completely let go of his hands and feet to let everyone play their own way, without asking for instructions and reporting in everything. As long as he can break through the city gate, no matter what method it is!

With Fang Li's instructions, the four famous generals fully demonstrated their respective strengths, which made the guards of the Jin army on the city wall dizzy and had no time to deal with them.

Lu Bu is famous for his bravery and set an example to lead his soldiers to continue to attack, completely overwhelming the Jin army in terms of momentum. Ying Bu changed his commander and fought happily and was so happy that he almost gained a foothold on the city tower several times. He only felt that this was the commander he wanted to follow in his dream.

Gao Shun was as cruel and ruthless as he was practicing camp. The soldiers on the front line were ready to die, and they tried their best to climb the ladder and tear a hole in the defense line of the Jin army. Gao Shun was slightly indifferent to the rear, calming to the extreme. Once he found where the Jin army was loose, he immediately mobilized his troops to press forward. It seemed that the growing casualties were just meaningless numbers.

Cao Cao used troops like a ghost, liked to be unexpected, and it seemed a little unstable to attack the city. He often had sudden whims and used them immediately on the battlefield, especially when he almost completely drained the two generals Ju Yi and Yan Liang. The guards of the Jin army were exhausted and almost were almost broken through the city gate several times.

Zhang Liao was good at fighting in the formation and used various siege equipment to fight steadily. The Yuanshu crossbowmen first suppressed the crossbowmen of the Jin army, and then the infantry stood up with the shield of the cloud ladder. The offensive was extremely fierce, and the progress was not inferior to others. Wei Liao followed the troops and horses on this route. The commander of a country became Zhang Liao's deputy general, but he was willing to sigh that the Tang Dynasty was full of talents and famous generals were everywhere.

The four generals fought to the death, but Fang Li was not idle either. The letters of persuading surrender were shot into the city one by one. Among them, Fang Li and Liu Bei wrote them himself, and they moved them to understand them with emotion.

For soldiers, the military rules that the Tang army only talks about military merits and promotions, never asks about their origins; for the people, they promote the happiness and stability of the Tang people's lives; for bureaucrats and nobles, they promised that the city would never affect their families after they were destroyed, and that they could still enjoy wealth and glory as Tang ministers; for those who were loyal to Jin, they exaggerated the various stupid decisions of the strange and incompetent decisions, and even called this Duke of Jin a foolish king.

There were all kinds of letters, and for a moment, people in Quwo City were in a state of turmoil. Many people who saw that Jin State would definitely lose were beginning to have other ideas.

The stranger was in a hurry in the hall, but the civil and military officials of Jin were already in power at this time, and the Tang army was everywhere. The army of Xianzhen in the north was in danger. Before falling into the siege of the Tang army, the Yan army had taken the opportunity to erode about one-quarter of the territory of Jin in the north. The Zhao army in the southeast was reluctant to leave and five cities were set aside in one day. Jin was already surrounded by enemies, and the destruction of the country was right in front of him.

Finally, three days later, after less than eight thousand remaining in Quwo defenders, the envoys who prayed for peace talks finally arrived at the Tang camp.

Fang Li waved his hand and said, "I won't see you!" He turned around and sent Gongsun Yan to envoy Qu Wo to make his own request to Gui Zhu.

At this time, Quwo City was already in chaos, and from all officials to the people, they all began to pack their bags and try to contact their relatives and friends outside, trying to escape from Quwo.

The soldiers of Jin who were guarding the city were in a large amount of consumption every day. In desperation, Gui Zhu had to order the continuation of civil servants. Anyone in the city who had a man over 12 years old at home had to be recruited to the city wall to resist the Tang army. For a time, there were crying in Quwo City, every family was mourning, and many thieves took advantage of the chaos to disrupt public order. All the yamen runners in Quwo City also went to the front line, and no one maintained public order. The people of Quwo had to close the door, and while worrying about the soldiers who were catching the strong men suddenly broke in, they were also worried about encountering robbers.

When Gongsun Yan entered Quwo, he saw this tragic hell on earth. While lamenting that people's lives were like grass in the troubled times, he became more confident in persuading surrender. The soldiers, civilians and the people in the city had no intention of resisting. Even if they wanted to die for their country, the frightened scholars and officials in Jin State would drive their lords to Fangli horses to seek a trace of their vitality.

In the hall, Gui Zhu still tried hard to maintain the majesty of a king of a country. He looked down at Gongsun Yan from a high place and asked in a narrow voice: "Donald Tang sent a gentleman, but did he ask for peace?"

Gongsun Yan didn't take this trick, and immediately sneered and said in a cold voice: "As far as Jin Gong said, is Jin going to fight with my Tang Kingdom to the end?"

Gui Zhu still wanted to continue to be stubborn, but the civil and military officials in the hall were already scared by Gongsun Yan's cold face and lost their souls. Some hurriedly spoke out and persuaded them, while some turned around and smiled at Gongsun Yan, for fear that the envoy who held the power of life and death in Quwo was furious and reported that the State of Tang and Jin would fight to the death with the Tang army, which triggered a tragedy of the city massacre.

The main hall of Jin State instantly turned into a vegetable market.

Gui Zhu sat on the throne and saw the attitude of the civil and military officials of the court clearly, and his heart became even more despair. The civil and military bureaucrats of the great Jin Dynasty were actually scared to this way because of the Tang army's large-scale siege. He Gui Zhu lost without any worries!

There is no point in going down the city wall. Gui Zhu closed his eyes sadly, and said with a whisper: "Tell me, what are the conditions for Fang Li?"

Gongsun Yan waved his sleeves and looked proud: "My Lord's conditions are very simple. Please ask Duke Jin to leave the city in white and ask for surrender. From then on, Quwo City will be under the rule of our Tang Dynasty, and there will be no Jin State under the world!"

"Puff!" Gui Zhu's heartache, and hesitated under the throne with blood, shouting: "Let me leave the city in white, Fang Li is determined to destroy my great Jin!"

"Does Jin Duke think that Jin has not yet perished?" Gongsun Yan was not moved by the tragic attitude at all, and he sneered, "Since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, my Tang Dynasty has tried to make friends with Jin State, and has never taken the initiative to invade. However, Jin Duke repeatedly trampled on our Lord's bottom line. Less than half a month after signing a ceasefire agreement with our Lord, he actually attacked my Shaoliang again. Do you really think that there is no one in the Tang Dynasty?!"

"Now, it's time for Duke Jin to swallow the bitter fruit of war!" Gongsun Yan looked around the ministers of Jin who were trembling around and suddenly slowed down his voice again, "Don't Jin, shouldn't you want to drag your ministers and people to bury Jin together?"

One by one, one sentence, and the revival king of Jin, who had been determined to dominate the world, found miserably that he had no other way than surrender.

Fight to the end? The military and people's hearts have all been dispersed. Even the pillars of Jin whom he relied on in the court have become like this. Even if there are a few soldiers who are willing to live and die with Jin, what's the use of apart from angering Fang Li even more?

In the eyes of the ministers in the court, which were either expected or forced, Gui Zhu finally lowered his arrogant head with difficulty: "Please tell Mr. Tang that I Gui Zhu... I am willing to surrender to the great Jin Dynasty!"

"It is said that those who know the times are heroes, and those who can bend and stretch, Jin Gong is indeed a true hero!" Gongsun Yan solemnly expressed his grace to the last king of Jin. "The foreign minister will report back to our lord and order the army to suspend the attack. Our lord is waiting for Jin Gong to arrive in the Tang camp!"

After saying that, he looked at the ministers of Jin who were breathing a sigh of relief with disdain, left the hall with his head held high and his chest, and walked towards Quwo City Gate under the escort of casual guards.

There were not many people in Jin who were stolen from the country to survive. After sending Gongsun Yan away, several civil servants and generals suddenly cried to the ground, trying to persuade Gui Zhusansi, but they didn't know where to start.

Over the past three days, the Tang and Wei coalition forces continued to attack fiercely, and there were less than 5,000 guards in the city, so I am afraid that they would not be able to resist it for a day.

The Jin State was filled with sorrow. Fang Li, who learned that Gui Zhu finally bowed his head, was overjoyed and held Gongsun Yan's arm and applauded.

The Tang army's offensive has temporarily stopped.

"For the speed of the march, the soldiers did not bring winter clothes. If he planned to stay for ten days and half a month, I would probably have to sign an alliance with him again and withdraw the troops!" Fang Li patted Gongsun Yan's shoulder and sighed, "Fortunately, Xian Zhen and Bi Wan were both far away in the sky, and the rest of the hard bones died in Shaoliang City with Jia Hua. He was really no one to use it!"

Gongsun Yan smiled and nodded: "Fortunately, Governor Cao was brave and good at fighting, and left Jia Hua's army outside Shaoliang City. Otherwise, our army's offensive would not be so easy!"

"Okay, don't compliment each other." Fang Li laughed, "I have a great reward for the meritorious ministers in the Battle of Destroying Jin!"
