"Mr. General of the Central Army, don't worry, Xie Li doesn't mean that, there is a third way to go."

Zhu Xu looked at Xie Li with a calm face and asked in confusion: "After this city is broken, we will be able to surrender to Qin in addition to fighting to the death. Where did this third path come from?"

Xie Li moved slightly forward and approached Zhu Xu before saying, "The General Zhonglang was willing to fight to the death to the city, which made Xie Li admire him. If he really did this, the book in later generations would definitely be called heroes, and the ending could not be said to be imperfect. However, except that it could be admired by later generations, it would be of little use to our Jin Dynasty at the moment."

Zhu Xu nodded, and then said, "Although I, Zhu Xu, have seen life and death more often, I am afraid of death to be honest. But if I lose my integrity and even regret it for life, it is better to die than to die. As for what happened in the future, I, Zhu Xu, have never thought much about it."

After hearing him, Xie Li continued, "Although everyone is afraid of death, it is just a matter of gritting their teeth at critical moments, and it is not difficult. However, after death, it is too difficult for the Zhonglang General to do things for Jin again... Xie Li heard that the Qin King Fu Jian often claims to be a wise and benevolent lord. Whether he treats Zhang Tianxi, the Former Qin Dynasty, or Murong Chui, he is all high-ranking officials and generous salaries. Although the position of the Zhonglang General is lower than that of them, he defends Xiangyang and refuses to surrender, which is not known to them. Therefore, after the Zhonglang General is "captured", the Qin Lord will naturally treat it well."

After a slight pause, Xie Li continued to whisper: "Du Ba Team Du is in the Qin army's effect, General Zhonglang has seen it. If General Zhonglang is added..."

After hearing this, Zhu Xu's face turned red and black. In the end, he realized what Xie Li meant and fell into deep thought for a moment.

But it’s no wonder that Xie Li is long-winded. He is as arrogant as Zhu Xu and will not explain it step by step. No matter how much he says it, it will be indifferent.

Looking at Zhu Xu's thoughtful expression, Xie Li said again: "At that time, the General of the Central Army will just keep his own, and the rest will be handed over to the Qin army."

"Well? How could Jing Xuan conclude that when the Qin army broke the city, it would not kill me Zhu Xu in the city. Although Fu Jian was similar to what you heard, he was not here now, and no one knew the temper of his son opposite him. I heard that Fu Pi was quite young, and under the long guard of my Zhu Xu, it was normal for him to be impatient. So when he broke the city, who could guess what he wanted to do?

Xie Li smiled and said, "If Fu Jian was here, I wouldn't be completely sure, but now the leader is Fu Pi. This is his first time as the main general to lead the city. Xie Li is 90% sure. He will win over the General of the Central Army and treat it well."

"Well? Why is this again..." Zhu Xu said as if he suddenly realized it, then pointed at Xie Li and said, "How do you have such a big head? How can you think so far?"

Xie Li asked a little while, but did not answer, thinking that the reason was too scary, and you still didn't know it. Then he said, "So, please think about the overall situation. Although death is sometimes more important than Mount Tai, if you can choose, it is more useful to live."

This persuasion is reasonable and evidence-based, which obviously has inspired Zhu Xu.

As for Xie Li, if the reason for saying this was for Sima Jinshi, it would undoubtedly be nonsense. This is the reason for Zhu Xu, not his own.

It has been less than a month since I came here, and the only person I was interested in the Sima family was Emperor Xuan Sima Yi. When I was studying, I was deeply impressed by his various strange strategies. It was not enough to say that he was the only winner in the entire Three Kingdoms period.

However, after the entire Sima family disappeared, there were no more flashes of lights.

Even though his sons Sima Shi and Sima Zhao are considered heroes, they are still far behind him.

As for the future, it can be considered as worse than the previous generation. Now that I am curled up in Jiangdong, I can only see the faces of various aristocratic races, but I can’t do anything about it.

Although the current emperor was much better than the previous Emperor Xian Liu Xie after General Huan Wen passed away, it was only so. If we look at it from the scene alone, the Sima Jinshi is a bit like the royal family in later generations, which is expensive and has no power.

Of course, even so, for Xie Li, the emperor was still a high-ranking existence, an existence that was beyond reach.

But Xie Li was still uninterested in this and still had no idea of ​​doing anything for the royal family.

In recent days, Xie Li often wondered why God arranged for him to come here?

But obviously, this problem was unsolvable, so Xie Li changed the problem to: What can he do when he came here?

There is nothing to participate in this "settlement" in Xiangyang City except defending the city. Although he had made more critical plans for defending the city a few days ago, Xie Li believed that these plans were only based on his own judgment and cognition, and he could not temporarily "save" Xiangyang just because he suddenly appeared at this time, and he said that he was the "son of the choice" and he must do something that could be done to overcome the world.

What's more, in Xie Li's heart, the only one of the "sons of God's Chosen" was the Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu.

So, what can you do?

Compared with people in this era, their advantage lies in their understanding of the general trend. Although this advantage is because they come from the "future" and there is nothing to brag about, it is an objective fact after all.

Of course, there is a prerequisite, that is, when history will not change.

Under this advantage, there seem to be many things that I can do, but with my current identity, there seems to be very few things that I can do.

So whenever I think of this, Xie Li's thoughts are like a kite with a broken string. When he doesn't know where to fly, he will come back to his senses. In the end, he has to give up these random thoughts and reconsider the current situation.

The matter of persuading Zhu Xu was the decision Xie Li made after thinking about the present.

Zhu Xu had been thinking for a long time. In his previous plans, although his life could not be said to be insignificant, if he could withstand so many Qin troops' sieges and for a long time, he would not lose even if he died in the city.

But now when I heard what Xie Li said, it seems that there is indeed a more useful choice. If the result is really just like what he said, then as long as I remain unchanged, why worry about not having the opportunity to serve for me?

"Well..." Zhu Xu let out a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to say something again, he heard a shout outside the city:

"Zhu Xu, you dare to go out of the city to fight me Du Ba!"
