At this time, the commanders of the left wing of the Qing army gathered together and were discussing whether to divert the road or build the road, Dong Zhiyuan was not a mountain mountain, a road, several roads could lead to Yongyang Fucheng, and most of the loess slopes were not so steep

After consulting the sapper sentry, Guo Baochang made up his mind and said: "It's better to build the road first, it can't be cheap, these bedbugs have time to starve to death, and they can't let them escape."

Li Guolou said: "I don't have a problem with finding someone to talk to them."

"Report that Hu Dagui and Yang Wenyu, the guards of the Hui army, have sent messengers," Guo Baochang did not answer Li Guolou's words, and one Goshha reported that the Hui army had come down to negotiate

Standing on the hill and inspecting the terrain, a group of officers were stunned, and they didn't start fighting, how could they want to surrender when they returned to the army, Shicai's face was very solemn, and he immediately became eager to try, and he was so excited that he almost didn't jump up

Guo Baochang stabilized his mentality, scheming, carefully groomed his beard, and said without revealing it: "Well, Cao Cao, Cao Cao, to Chief Li, is a member of the Fu General, bring that trickster, I will meet him, hahahaha"

Guo Baochang laughed comfortably, he had never been so smooth, looking at Li Guolou's little white face, he couldn't say that he liked the Five Tiger Generals, "Zhao Zilong" turned out to be his subordinates, and this time he marched into Yongyang Mansion City, his left flank should have fewer casualties and men all the way

"Guo Shoubei has good news as soon as he comes," Li Guolou was as happy as other officers, with an official hat on his face, and the imperial court gave a high hat to the surrendering faction, and it was not too much to stuff some people into the yamen, and it was not too much for the Qing Dynasty to have the so-called registered official title, first give a piece of Yulu, there is always a chance to go, the Qing Dynasty has many benefits as an official, and there are many benefits and benefits for passing on to children and grandchildren, as for the meager Yulu, that is compared with the immediate officials, if it is compared with the common people, just to get a Yulu, it is several times better than the common people

"Grandma Hu Dagui originally came here, I'm here," Guo Baochang looked at the towering fortress and was a little annoyed, he originally wanted to catch Hu Dagui to dig out his heart and lungs and eat people's hearts and livers, and he was a traitor who had no conscience and took the court for nothing

"Oh, it's this Hu Dagui, Guo Shoubei, don't be too serious, become a king and lose a king, our ancestors lived like this," Li Guolou did not discriminate against the surrender faction at all, and the providence returned to the Qing Dynasty, if the dynasty was changed, he would also conform to the will of the people and take refuge in his master

Loyal and unyielding people have no descendants, they are all kneeling and surrendering, and there are no exceptions for the descendants of the Shunmin, unless they cross the ocean to be foreign expatriates, those who scolded the Manchu Qing for their brutality and took the overthrow of the Manchu Qing as their own responsibility, and they are also the descendants of the Shunmin

The so-called "educating fools" is the policy of fooling the people, and whoever takes Guan Gong as a model is a fool who can not be saved

Guo Baochang's eyes widened, and he rolled his eyes at Li Guolou, he didn't rebel against human morality to recognize Manchu as his ancestors, and his little white face was just a shameless bedbug, as shameful as the surrendering faction

Li Guolou saw that Guo Baochang's expression was profound, but his face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he stood still, he was not a disciplined literati, but a villain who chased fame and fortune, so that he could live a chic life, and only then could he jump over the dragon gate and become a generation of heroes, and he could only write a few hard books to tell the injustice and darkness of the world

Li Guolou doesn't care what others think of him behind his back, as long as he lives a meaningful life, does things that ordinary people can't imagine, and success accompanies him, betraying his ancestors and betraying the interests of the country, it sounds very shameful, but the people in power in the country sell the interests of the country and the people for various reasons, as long as the country is not strong enough, they will do this kind of dirty thing, this is called the rational use of power, real life abounds, the descendants scold the predecessors for sufficient reasons, heartache and anger, reprimanding the former dynasty for decay and decay, and in a difficult environment, they will also make the right choice, sell their interests in exchange for time to recuperate, this is called dormancy, it is the art of Taoguang cultivation

In the face of reality, what do future generations say, it is an afterthought, scolding a history of shame, and it cannot be done the other way around, the so-called lying on the salary and tasting courage is to sell dignity and interests, otherwise it is not lying on the salary, but lying in the coffin, even the regime will no longer exist, and it is difficult to protect itself

The jade is burned, fighting to the death, just commending a kind of integrity, and can not change the fate of defeat, Li Guolou should not be a tragic hero, he wants to defeat the enemy, give the tragedy to the enemy, as long as he wins, no matter how despicable the means are, how many people hate him, he still has to win

As for the two-faced and three-knife surrender faction, as long as they are strong enough, there will be enemies to take refuge, for these surrender factions to be good at making use of them, they can't reuse them, let them die, and the next time they climb the city, they will use the surrender faction, Li Guolou is dark in his heart, and he stares at Yan Changgong, a lobbyist for the Hui army, with a pair of slender eyes

Guo Baochang stood up majestically and personally met the eccentric Yan Changgong, Guo Baochang swept his eyes like a murderous warrior, Yan Changgong pounced, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Guo Shou villain Yan Changgong asks you for peace"

"Well, Yan Changgong, now we are the two warring parties, what does Hu Dagui, this bastard have to say," Guo Baochang looked high-minded, and did not let Yan Changgong get up, this is to return to the army, and he will take the initiative in the negotiation

Yan Changgong saw that there were people around him, and he knew that the Qing army had already built roads, but he was not afraid at all, and he would have already refined himself, even if he had a knife frame on his neck, he would not be afraid, and licked his face: "Respect Guo Garrison, Han guard, Hu Dagui, and Hui guard, Yang Wenyu, are willing to say hello to you, and I am willing to contribute to the Qing Dynasty."

Li Guolou almost didn't laugh out loud, touched his nose and turned around, a traitor is fatal to an army, fortunately, the army has taken in so many members of the Elders' Association, mixed in the rivers and lakes, the underworld people are good at drilling camps, fierce and brutal, and will use various means to get rid of the predicament at a dangerous juncture, many surrenderers are not really repentant, just expedient, as long as they leave the danger, they will pull the flag and rebel, so they should be killed or killed, even if they are treacherous and infamous, these unstable factors must be eliminated, Li Guolou can't guess Guo Baochang's inner thoughts, so he can only wait and see what happens

Guo Baochang sneered: "Oh yes, the Qing Dynasty is benevolent and righteous, as long as Hu Dagui is willing to put down the butcher's knife, on behalf of the Qing government, I will warmly welcome and guarantee that I will not kill the official hat, you also see that I am just a garrison order, let me go forward and kill the enemy, I didn't let me sit down and negotiate, I don't have time to talk nonsense, but the battalion officer level is still not a problem, no matter how big the official, I don't"

Yan Changgong glanced at the back of Li Guolou, Hu Dagui and Yang Wenyu were only five hundred guards, and they still guarded the lonely and barbaric land on the high slope of the loess, how could there be much room for negotiation, they did not have high requirements, put a way to live, and burn high incense by themselves, Hu Dagui would not put down the weapons in his hand, this is the foundation of the surrender faction, and it is also the rule of the surrender faction, and the surrendering faction must always leave some troops, so that as a result, the surrendering faction will believe that the Qing Dynasty will not settle accounts after the autumn

Hearing that Guo Baochang promised to give Hu Dagui and Yang Wenyu the treatment of camp officials, Yan Changgong's heart jumped, he was afraid that the imperial court would not allow Hu Dagui to surrender, but it should not be Hu Dagui, it seems that he has done evil, and there is no reason for Yang Dawa to favor one or the other, Yan Changgong flattered and said: "Thank you Guo Shoubei for being magnanimous and willing to take in the prodigal son, Hu Dagui and Yang Wenzhi, the younger brother of Yang Wenzhi, the ninth marshal of the Hui army, but there is still a small request, Guo Shoubei, you must ask Chief Li to be a guarantee."

Li Guolou was stunned, turned his body and looked at Yan Changgong, he never thought that he took in An Jie, Yang Dawazi and others, and the deeds of the return army had already spread, and he hurriedly said: "Yan Changgong, how do you know me?"

Yan Changgong thought to himself, he is not a fool, such a big Li Ziqi, he is not illiterate, he doesn't know who the banner is, and said: "Lord Li's prestige has long been known to women and children, and there is only one in Changshan Zhao Zilong and Daqing."

Li Guolou listened comfortably, but he was not in charge here, so he couldn't help but shoot his eyes at Guo Baochang, a painting was a fart, turned his face, and killed ruthlessly

Guo Baochang was already happy in his heart, but his expression still maintained a murderous aura and said with a murderous aura: "This official can also do it, and Lord Li is also willing to be a guarantee, as long as Hu Dagui and Yang Wenyu go down the mountain and reward two thousand taels of silver, but this official will be ordered here, and at two o'clock tomorrow, the official will see all the returning troops coming down from the hill, and I don't want any of them when the auspicious time comes, I think your grain and grass will not exceed half a year, I will not attack and starve you to death."

Yan Changgong said: "Guo Garrison, the grain and grass are quite sufficient, and we can still provide some help to the army, but the firewood is insufficient, or it won't be long before the people above will eat raw."

Li Guolou looked at this dead soldier, this is not the order of the master, come to the enemy camp, can still talk and laugh, add a good impression to his life, and said casually: "Yan Changgong got up and spoke and told the official how many people are still above."

"This ······" Yan Changgong stood up, lowered his head, his two eyes were sloppy, and he refused to say it, thinking that this was not good, and said cautiously: "There are less than a thousand people, more than a battalion, Commander Li, this should not be said, you will be able to see it tomorrow."

"Oh, I believe you are a warrior reward," Li Guolou's expression was so calm, his voice was so pleasant, as if he was holding a pearl, but he thought in his heart that the Han people still had no backbone, and regarded surrender as a thirty-six plan, so that there would be no such good thing in the future, and Yongyang Mansion City must be a bloody battle

Yan Changgong took Guo Baochang's letter, which was stamped with the seals and drawings of the two commanders, and obtained two silver ingots, and walked happily up the mountain, holding the two silver ingots high while walking, telling the defenders above the good news

Guo Baochang watched Yan Changgong walk as if he was dancing Yangge, and he was quite unhappy in his heart, and scolded angrily: "There are still good days for the immortal rebellion, and if I have a strong family, I will not let go of this treacherous villain."

Li Guolou showed a relieved smile, touched his chin and said: "Guo Shoubei, it would be good if the war was like this, but it's a pity that there are still many outlaws, and there are many Han people who are cunning, and there are many tendons, and I don't know what year and month this war has been fought."

Li Guolou has only been on the front line for more than a month, and he already feels physically and mentally exhausted and meaningless, the war brings only psychological trauma, the country has to borrow foreign debts to fight, aggravate the labor and taxation of the people, and the national hatred is buried deep in his heart because of this war, this is the memory brought by the Hui rebellion to the people, and the Hui people have carried out a vigorous anti-Qing uprising, fortunately, the Hui people in Xinjiang and Shaanxi and Gansu regions have not won the General Assembly, otherwise the entire northwest will be forever separated from the rule of the Qing Dynasty

"I hope that the longer I continue to fight like this, the better, Lao Tzu will make a fortune and Annan will fight again," Guo Baochang's eyes showed yearning, and he also wanted to add an official to the knighthood, so that he could become an earl

"You can also make money by fighting, Guo Shoubei knows very well in his heart, right, if Annan fights to make a sum of money for the Qing Dynasty, I am also in favor of fighting, if it is only for the Annan People's Independence and Liberation Movement to make a Celestial Empire honor war, this kind of swollen face and fat man battle is still avoided, the national movement is in the ascendant, we can't be used as monkeys" Li Guolou thinks that fighting a war also has to make money, and opening up territory is to make money, and to sacrifice some manpower for future generations. The financial resources are also worth it, or if you don't learn from the Franco-Prussian War, let France pay a huge war reparation, the Qing court was so made to die by the British Empire, and to repay its aspirations with its own way, and learn the advanced concepts of the West, including becoming a rich country and a strong people by fighting wars

Is it meaningful to fight for such a fictitious thing as honor, say a few good words on your lips, kowtow a few times, and it is not a true son, the subject country is stationed with 2,000 Qing troops, the symbolic meaning is not very useful, in fact, these vassal countries are still independent countries, recognize a nominal monarch, and let the Celestial Empire be complacent

"You are an official and businessman, with a copper stench, we can't smell it, but the Qing Empire is vast, how can we talk about money with small vassal countries, education depends on inheritance, didn't Confucius teach you?" Guo Baochang showed the demeanor of a righteous man and a gentleman, and a big country should spend money to show its strength, so that all countries can come to congratulate and learn from the Qing Dynasty, culturally enslave the surrounding countries, and let the vassal countries be attached to the Qing Dynasty, and they can sincerely naturalize the Qing Dynasty in the future

Li Guolou shook his head desperately and sighed: "Lao Guo, didn't I say that your times are different, there is no time to engage in false things, people have removed all the Chinese characters, it is a centrifugal and detached from morality, who is willing to give up vested interests and return to others, Dong Zhiyuan can get it back by negotiation, don't mistake people, children think that the Celestial Empire will be a fart, people will also be incense, look at the rebellion, you will know, people have a grudge in their bones, and it is useless to educate for a hundred years, only rely on absolute strength, and there is the distribution of people, this can't be said, you know what to do."

Guo Baochang also shook his head desperately, he had Hui people under his hands, and he knew what was going on, and he did it, turned around and walked to the military tent, a round of military meetings was waiting for them to appear, and tomorrow would be the journey
