Start by integrating Ran Min and starting with the strategy of Lady Bian - Chapter 159
As Li Xiang exposed his ambition to Zhang Mancheng, Zhang Mancheng was confused when facing a Li Xiang who was different from what he knew. Although his heart was in turmoil, Zhang Mancheng quickly controlled himself and calmed down. Unlike other big men of the Yellow Turbans, Zhang Mancheng could still read and write. Moreover, after reading some scriptures and history books, he had some knowledge and knew that Li Xiang was not in the same mind as the court. Zhang Mancheng’s impression of Li Xiang suddenly improved, and he felt a little closer to him. “What common goal can we have? Zhang Mancheng took a deep breath and asked Li Xiang.
Li Xiang listened to Zhang Mancheng’s question and smiled.
He knew that Zhang Mancheng had let down his guard against him.
“Although I am not the emperor of the Han Dynasty, I still value the safety of the people. In other words, I hope that the people can survive and live better than the emperor and those dignitaries in the court.”
“And you Yellow Turbans, except for a few people who really want to rebel, most of you just want to survive.”
“I can’t let you go, and I don’t want to kill you, so I want you to come forward and persuade all the Yellow Turbans in Nanyang to surrender to me! I can guarantee the safety of the Yellow Turbans after surrender, and I will try my best to help them survive!”
Li Xiang said to Zhang Mancheng seriously.
Li Xiang didn’t beat around the bush with Zhang Mancheng. It was better to be straightforward at this time.
“What? You want all the Yellow Turbans in Nanyang to surrender? Ahem… This is impossible! “Zhang Mancheng’s eyes widened when he heard Li Xiang’s request, and he immediately struggled excitedly.
Li Xiang looked at Zhang Mancheng who was struggling and resisting, and was not surprised by Zhang Mancheng’s reaction.
If Zhang Mancheng easily agreed to hand over hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans in Nanyang to him because of his few words, it would be abnormal.
“You have to think clearly. Your words and deeds are related to the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Nanyang. If you make a wrong decision, then these hundreds of thousands of people, the Yellow Turbans in your eyes, will have no way out!”
“Today, since I, Li Xiang, can easily break through Wancheng, which is as stable as Mount Tai in your eyes, then I have a way to completely defeat these hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans. Believe it or not, it’s up to you. This matter is up to you to decide.”
“Tomorrow morning, I will ask you again. If you still answer this way, there is no way. Hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans died because of you! “
Li Xiang looked at Zhang Mancheng and said coldly.
After that, Li Xiang left directly.
He had said everything he should say to Zhang Mancheng.
If Zhang Mancheng didn’t cooperate, then he had no choice but to launch a strong attack.
Of course, even if he launched a strong attack and defeated the Yellow Turbans, Li Xiang would still collect captives on a large scale.
But there is no doubt that Zhang Mancheng would be able to receive more Yellow Turbans.
“Ahem… If you want me to persuade the Yellow Turbans to invest, you’re dreaming. It’s absolutely impossible! “Zhang Mancheng looked at Li Xiang’s departing back and couldn’t help coughing, but he gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
That’s right, even though he knew that Li Xiang was not so loyal to the court.
However, Zhang Mancheng still didn’t want all the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans in Nanyang to surrender to Li Xiang directly.
Li Xiang always represented the court camp.
And he, Zhang Mancheng, and the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans in Nanyang were the rebel camp.
Not to mention whether Li Xiang could protect the safety of the surrendered Yellow Turbans.
If they surrendered directly to the court, what would they rebel against?
Many Yellow Turbans took the road of rebellion because they had no food to eat.
However, there were also many Taiping Dao and Yellow Turbans who were determined to overthrow the incompetent court and build a perfect country.
Without the oppression of the aristocratic families , not hungry, not lacking food.
So, when Zhang Mancheng heard Li Xiang asking hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans to surrender, he had already made up his mind.
Even if hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans died, they could not surrender!!
A flash of determination flashed across Zhang Mancheng’s eyes, and he mobilized all his strength, biting his tongue in the middle with his upper and lower teeth.
“Ah, hum hum hum ~”
Accompanied by a scream, followed by holding back the scream, Zhang Mancheng opened his mouth in pain, and a lot of blood flowed out of his mouth.
Because Zhang Mancheng controlled his screams, the guards outside did not hear them.
As a lot of blood flowed away, there was no treatment, and the vitality in Zhang Mancheng’s eyes gradually dimmed, and finally his head tilted and he died.
However, strangely, Zhang Mancheng had a smile on his face.
