Unless it was like Gao Yang, the royal city was surrounded and there was no possibility of resistance.
Hearing this, Meng Jue hesitated for a moment, but without saying much, he walked forward and bowed slightly.
Although he was asking for surrender, his attitude was still arrogant and he was not unwilling to submit.
But as the ruler of Baiyue, he should have the necessary courage.
Seeing this, Wei Yunyi didn't care and said, "However, I have a question, that is why you want to surrender. Although you and I have fought a great battle in the past few days, we haven't suffered much loss. You still have nearly 60,000 elite soldiers and generals under your command. Can you explain it to me?"
"Explain? Your Majesty the Emperor should know better than anyone else, right? Wasn't all this your plan?"
When Meng Jue heard this, he felt that the other party was deliberately humiliating him.
But at this moment, it was not a good time to get angry, and then continued: "Although my Baiyue has elite soldiers and strong generals, its foundation is tribal. Now food and grass are in urgent need, and my tribesmen have to survive the winter. If we continue to fight like this, it will not benefit my Baiyue at all."
"I'm asking for peace now, simply hoping that His Majesty the Emperor of Wei will show some mercy and restore trade between the Baiyue and Wei, so that the Baiyue can safely survive this winter. I, Meng Jue, am deeply grateful."
In his eyes, the Emperor of Wei had already calculated that the Baiyue could not resist, otherwise why had he not sent troops to fight until now?
But Meng Jue couldn't say anything about this, because this was an impeccable conspiracy. The opponent's plan was laid out there openly, and he had no way of defeating it.
At this moment, Wei Yunyi reacted immediately after hearing this explanation.
Yes, Baiyue is not as good as Zhennan Pass.
Behind Zhennan Pass, there is a prosperous dynasty as its backing, so there is no problem at all if the war lasts longer.
But the Baiyue were different. Although there were hundreds of tribes, some were large and some were small. Some tribes could not even get enough food and clothing at certain times and still had to rely on trade with the Wei Dynasty.
This battle seems to have lasted for two months, but in reality, it has lasted almost half a year.
It is not easy for Baiyue to hold on for so long, but that is all.
It turns out it’s because of food problems.
No wonder.
Meng Jue will eventually choose to surrender. How can he fight without food?
Finally found the reason.
Wei Yunyi was completely relieved. At the same time, he also thought of one thing, that is, if he helped Meng Jue solve this problem, does it mean that the war can continue?
