Arslen Khan came to the two arrows of the Miyun city wall, stopped his horse, looked at the city, and saw a flag fluttering on the city gate tower, and a general with a golden helmet and golden armor stood in the middle, which should be the general of Miyun's city guard.

Arslen Khan ordered his men to shout to the man, and immediately a warrior came to the city of Miyun and shouted: "Listen, the guards of Miyun, our Great Khan said that as long as you surrender, I would like to make you king and be a prince on the steppe." If you resist the Celestial Army, you will be torn to pieces by the time the city is broken. ”

Gu Xu happened to listen carefully on the city tower, at this time he was already so frightened that his legs trembled, he should have 10,000 horses in Miyun City, but in fact, there are only five thousand now, and the rest are all eaten by him, plus he usually deducts and resells weapons, resulting in a very insufficient defensive equipment in Miyun City.

Gu Xu's face was cloudy on the city tower, after thinking about it, he felt that if his reselling of ordnance was known by the imperial court, he would definitely be unable to escape death, and if he desperately defended the city here, he was afraid that it would also be a dead word. Gu Xu didn't want to die yet, and when he heard Arslen Khan say that if he surrendered, he could be the leader of a department, so he started to think crookedly.

Gu Xu can only give up his parents and wife at home after thinking about it now, although it is a bit unfilial to say this, but as long as he can save his life, his parents should forgive him. After all, he is the only son in the family, and he is so promising. They should be able to understand themselves.

As for wives and children, why should a husband have no wife? It's that his children are a little distressed, but they can't take care of it now. If you don't have your life, you won't have anything, and it's a big deal to burn more paper money for them to let them go down and live a prosperous and prosperous life.

Thinking of this, Gu Xu made up his mind, and in order to save his life, he was ready to surrender to the Tatars. But there are other generals in the city, and if the idea of surrendering is known by others, I am afraid that when the time comes, I will not be able to surrender, but will endanger my own life.

Gu Xu had an idea as soon as his mind turned, and he simply cleaned up his subordinates together, and it would be convenient for him to act on his own in the future.

After listening to the shouts outside the city, Gu Xu immediately ordered the soldiers around him to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the Tatars from sneaking attack, not to surrender by himself, but to be broken in by the Tatars. But he himself went down to the city, and returned to his house to set up, ready to do it tonight. He now has nothing to do for the safety of his life.

That night, on the pretext of discussing the military situation, he summoned all the officials of more than 1,000 households under his command to the garrison mansion, where he set up a banquet. As soon as the generals came, he invited them to the banquet.

Gu Xu drank with them while discussing the enemy's situation. The generals were also defenseless, so they drank heartily during the banquet, not to come up with some ideas to defend the city, many of these people are in the army for generations, and they have one or two stunts.

But now Gu Xu is already a desire for profit, and now he only thinks about opening the city and surrendering, and then going to be his leader, so he cares about these things to defend the city. Gu Xu just kept perfunctory the generals there, and kept persuading them to drink.

The generals did not doubt him, so they drank two more glasses, and the wine was drugged by Gu Xu, and soon these generals were all overturned by Gu Xu.

As soon as Gu Xu saw that all the generals had been overturned by him, he immediately ordered his subordinates to tie up all these people and lock them up in the firewood room. Then he wrote a letter of surrender and ordered his soldiers to secretly go out of the city and deliver the letter to Arslen Khan.

And Arslen Khan promised the Miyun guards during the day that if they surrendered, they would immediately be crowned king and given a fief. It's just a stopgap measure, if it succeeds, it's better, if it doesn't work, there's nothing to lose to yourself. As a result, the good news came to him and he couldn't believe it, he had just promised during the day, and the guards of Miyun would come to contact him at night.

Arslen Khan was suspicious by nature, and when he heard that the Miyun Guards had sent someone to deliver the surrender document, he didn't fully believe it in his heart, and he was worried that this was the trick of the Miyun Guards. But since he had already sent him, he could not see the messenger, so he ordered the hand to bring the messenger to the horde.

In the Great Tent, Arslen Khan saw his own soldiers who had sent him a letter. With Arslen Khan's many years of experience, it was clear at a glance that this man was nothing more than an ordinary sergeant.

The sergeant was so frightened when he saw Arslen Khan that he didn't want to come for this mission. But Gu Xu promised that as long as he came, he would prepare five hundred taels of silver for him. This silver is near Miyun, and it can buy more than 50 acres of land. In addition, he already knew Gu Xu's secret, if he didn't agree to go, I was afraid that he would be killed by Gu Xu in the study immediately. After weighing the two, he still accepted Gu Xu's order.

Besides, if it is really like Gu Xu said, to give him so much wealth, it is worth it to desperately go and take a risk.

This pro-soldier was like this, under the coercion and temptation of Gu Xu, he came to deliver a letter to Arslen Khan according to Gu Xu's order, and threw aside the righteousness of the country and the nation.

Arslen Khan saw the apprehension in the soldier's heart, and he now believed seven or eight points in his heart, so he said with a pleasant face: "Your general sent you to deliver the letter, but what evidence do you have?" ”

"When my general asked me to come, he only gave me a letter and nothing else." The soldier replied honestly.

"I asked you to deliver the letter, so take it out and let me see it."

When the soldier heard Arslen Khan asking for a letter from him, he hurriedly took out an envelope from his bosom. Both hands were handed to Arslen Khan.

Arslen Khan gave the attendant next to him a look, and the attendant next to him immediately took the letter forward, and then handed it to Arslen Khan.

Arslen Khan took the letter and opened the envelope to look at it carefully, the gist of it was nothing more than that this general called Gu Xushou knew that the heavenly soldiers were coming, did not dare to resist, and wanted to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and from now on he would be loyal to the Great Khan under the command of the Great Khan, so he sent someone to write a letter, hoping that Arsleng Khan would keep his promise to crown him as king, and agreed to invite Arslen Khan's lover to receive Miyun City tonight.

Arslen Khan read the letter several times. Now I was confused by this letter, and I don't know what this Miyun Defender thought, but before the battle, he sent a surrender document. He had been at war with the Southern Dynasties for so many years, and he had never met a general like this.

Although the generals of the Southern Dynasty are all wine bags and rice bags, these people are still temperamental, that is, no matter how much they fail, they will flee at most, and they have never wanted to surrender before fighting like Gu Xu. There are indeed many doubts.

But Arslen Khan is not ready to give up this opportunity, whether it is true or not, just give it a try. So he sent his general Burigude with 10,000 horses to accept Gu Xu's surrender. If the other party really wants to surrender, you must treat each other politely, and there can be no rudeness. If the other party is a fake surrender, as long as you keep yourself, it will be a great achievement.

After receiving the order of Arslen Khan, Buzhigud came to Miyun City with his men and horses, at this time the city gate of Miyun City had been opened, and Gu Xu personally took several civil officials who were willing to surrender, and they had been waiting at the city gate for a long time.

After the messenger left, Gu Xu had already summoned the civil officials in the city to discuss. As a result, most of these civil officials disagreed, after all, it is the prosperous era of the dynasty, and these civil officials still have some integrity, plus most of their families are in the Central Plains, and if they surrender like this, their families may not have a place to turn over.

So many people scolded Gu Xu, and the purpose of these people was also very clear, that is, they only wanted to die quickly, so as to fight for the reputation of a loyal minister and let their families live better.

Gu Xu was annoyed and angry by their scolding, and immediately ordered his own soldiers to pull these people out and behead them all to relieve the hatred in his heart.

The remaining three or five officials saw that their bodies had already been sifted through this situation, and they dared to resist at all, so they all agreed to take care of the horse.

Therefore, Gu Xu also took these people to open the city gate, and prepared to welcome the Tatars at the city gate to receive the city's generals.

When Burigud saw Gu Xu, he saw that he didn't have a single weapon on his body, nor did he have any armor. And the soldiers around the city gate were all disarmed and stood there honestly one by one. It seems that he is really going to surrender.

And Gu Xu was overjoyed when he saw Burigud, he had always been worried that Arslen Khan would doubt his sincerity, and he would lead the troops to attack the city regardless of it. Now when he saw that Arslen Khan had sent someone to receive him, he knew that his life had been saved.

Gu Xu hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground towards Burigude and saluted: "The Southern Barbarian will be Gu Xu, and the surrender will be delayed to hope that the general will forgive the sin." ”

Burigud remembered Arslen Khan's instructions when he came, and now he saw that Gu Xu was indeed sincere in coming, so he quickly turned over and dismounted, came to Gu Xu's side to help him up, and said politely: "The general abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and the people of the two countries did not use swords and soldiers, but a great hero." When I came, our Great Khan asked me to tell the general that he would keep his promise, and that the general should not worry. ”

Gu Xu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately asked Burigude to enter the city to rest, and at the same time reported to Burigude that he had arrested all the officials in the city with more than 1,000 households, and how to deal with it next depends on the meaning of General Burigude.

As soon as Gu Xu and Burigude walked into the city gate, they saw a sergeant running in front of them, who seemed to be a small leader. The man had sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, two dripping eyes, and a flattering smile on his face. It's not a good thing at first glance.

When Gu Xu saw this person, he asked with some surprise: "Zhou Wu, you are not on guard and watching those people, what are you doing here?" ”

Zhou Wu leaned over and said to Gu Xu with a flattering face: "General, I didn't see that you haven't come back for a long time. I'm afraid that something will happen and come and see. ”

After speaking, he glanced at the Burigude next to him and immediately greeted him, and said with a smile on his face: "General, you are here, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I finally looked forward to you." I am really fortunate to be able to meet the general, and I hope the general will give me a lot of help in the future. ”

Burigud originally ignored such a figure, he admired the general of He Tong, although He Tong cheated at the last moment and almost injured his life, but his appreciation for He Tong did not decrease at all.

But now is the very moment, and it is the time to use these Southern Dynasty people, so he also asked with a smile: "Who are you?" What's the matter here? ”

Zhou Wu saw Burigude asking, hurriedly took a few steps forward, came to Burigude's side, nodded and said: "General, I am a hundred households in this city, and I am General Gu Xu's henchman. Just now, the general asked me to guard the thousands of households who were imprisoned in the garrison mansion, waiting for the adults to go and send them down, and I was anxious in the palace, so I came to see if the lords of the kingdom needed anything, and I could help. After speaking, he also showed a flattering smile to Burigud.
