"Fuck it, this bastard of Tun Qika, at such a critical juncture, he shamelessly betrayed the Qing Dynasty and surrendered to the enemy to survive, which is really hateful!"

Wu Fangshi, the adjutant general officer next to him, scolded loudly, and his expression was very resentful.

Li Shutai listened to Wu Fang's scolding expressionlessly, but the expression on his face was extremely stiff.

He could feel that at this time, in his own mind, there seemed to be only a blank space.

When Li led Tai's Han army into an extreme panic, Tun Qika, who opened the door and surrendered, let the soldiers next to him shake a huge white flag vigorously, while standing next to the city gate, and showed a very humble and respectful smile to Tian Wei, the mayor of Xingzhong Town of the Tang Army, who galloped over on horseback.

At this time, Tun Qika secretly felt extremely fortunate that he was able to make a decision to surrender to the Tang Army at this critical moment.

Fang Cai, standing on the north city wall, saw with his own eyes from the clairvoyant mirror that the artillery of the Tang army was so fierce that after three rounds of volleys, it completely collapsed the city wall on the right side of the west gate.

It can be seen how strong the combat power of these Tang troops is, and the more than 1,000 Manchurian soldiers and horses under their command want to confront the Tang army, which has a large number of troops and strong strength, which is really a dead end.

There is a way that those who know the times are Junjie, and Jia La'e Zhen Tun Qika instantly understood that he must not die with these Han soldiers, and he must not be the same as that Li Shutai, stupidly to be loyal to the Qing court, after all, the official is given by the Qing Dynasty, and the life is his own, once he dies in the hands of the Tang army like this, it is really not worth bullshit.

Therefore, now I must seize the opportunity to surrender to the Tang Army in time, so that not only can I and my subordinates survive, but also get a great opportunity to make up for my mistakes.

Of course, by doing so, he is undoubtedly a complete betrayal of the Qing Dynasty and a complete betrayal of Dolgon, but in the face of life, these things are not worth mentioning. In this troubled world that the dog has entered, there is nothing more important than preserving his life.

Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that he still has the last point of thousands of Manchurian soldiers and horses in this city, and the last bit of use value, Qi Tunka can only make a decision immediately and open the city to surrender, so as to invite merit.

And for the forehead attached Li Shutai, Tun Qika in his heart, and even thought happily, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you, now when this catastrophe is coming, a certain family can only be sorry for you, and can only take your head to invite Tang Jun to take credit.

With a bang, the suspension bridge at the north gate of Yaozhou City was put down suddenly, smashing the snowflakes on the ground, and the white flag at the head of the north gate was fluttering high.

Seeing the enemy at the north gate, after seeing that the west city wall was broken by the Tang army, under the huge pressure of the Tang army, he opened the city gate to surrender and welcome himself into the city.

Hum! Even if you are a dog in the Tartars, you know how to surrender to our army at this last critical juncture to save your life.

Tian Wei immediately ordered the whole army to enter the city as soon as possible and take the entire Yaozhou City as soon as possible.

Hearing the master's order, the Tang soldiers surrounding the north suddenly resounded with loud cheers, only to hear the footsteps moving in unison, and the large number of moving Tang army armor leaves rubbed and rattled, like a torrent of steel, and ran straight towards Yaozhou City.

Tian Wei, the mayor of Xingzhong Town, who was dressed in steel armor, rode close to the north gate of Yaozhou under the escort of a group of well-armored guards, and Tun Qika and his generals hurriedly stepped forward to meet him.

"In the lower swallow Qika, it is the city of Yaozhou, although it is full of people, but the prestige of the king of Pingliao for a long time, but there is no fate, and he can't get alike, and he really hates it in his heart. Our soldiers are looking forward to Lord Li coming north, just like a baby looking forward to his parents! Now that the king has arrived, it is the right time to lead the subordinates to vote. Therefore, the north gate of Yaozhou City is specially dedicated to welcome the king, hoping that the Lord will pity us and wait for a piece of sincerity, for the sake of us not moving the sword soldiers, and welcoming the heavenly soldiers of the country, I will leave our lives and allow us to serve Lord Li, and the villain is really grateful in his heart. ”

Tun Qika bowed down and stood aside with a humble face, listening to the half-incomprehensible translation of the Chinese general next to him, and peeked at it from time to time, and it seemed that the expression of Tian Wei, the commander of the Tang Army, who was angry and angry, was full of anticipation.

Listening to Tun Qika's incomparably fleshy and groveling lies, Tian Wei sighed, his heart was extremely contemptuous of him, and his face was full of sarcastic smiles, he looked Tun Qika up and down with an indescribable look, and then shouted coldly: "Tun Qika, although you are a Tartar, it is estimated that you have a lot of Han blood on your hands, but now, you can repent and surrender, but it is also a great achievement, I will take my own life, and I will ask for credit for you again." ”

Tun Qika was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you General for not blaming the past, and for taking all my lives, and in the next generation of all the soldiers of the army, thank the general for his life." After he finished speaking, he frowned again; "General Yu, another army outside the city, is the Qing Dynasty's forehead, the Han army under the command of Li Shuotai, who is under the blue banner of the Han army, this person is stubborn to the end, refuses to surrender, but has nothing to do with us."

Tian Wei sneered, and said, "It's okay, he wants to kill himself, of course he has nothing to do with you." It is better for you, since you have joined our army, to obey the orders of our army. Listen, the general ordered you to lead all your troops and join our army to flank those Tartars in the city who refused to surrender, and you must not let a single Tartar who refused to surrender be able to escape from Yaozhou City. If you can make new contributions, I will ask Lord Li for your great credit! ”

After listening to Tian Wei's words, Tun Qika's eyes lit up, and his face was irrepressibly happy.

He raised his head sharply, and immediately shouted loudly to Tian Wei: "Please rest assured, since we have surrendered to your army, we should serve with sincerity, and we will lead our troops to go now, kill these bastards of Li Shuotai's department, and use their heads to pay a letter of surrender to your lordship!" ”

After Tun Qika finished speaking, he brushed the ground and drew a knife in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, we are now joining the Tang Army, it is the time to make meritorious contributions and gain fame, please return to kill the enemy with this official, open the way for the Tang Army, and pay a heavy meeting gift to Lord Li!" ”

A group of traitor soldiers and horses responded in unison, and 2,000 traitor soldiers shouted loudly, drawing their swords one after another, showing their bravery, and rushing to kill the panicked Manchurian soldiers and horses in the city.

"Attached to the master, it's not good! Now that the Tang army is attacking in front, and there is a renegade in the back, where will our army go, please decide immediately! Wu Fangshi, the deputy general standing beside Li Shutai, had a terrified expression on his face, and his voice trembled.

Li Shutai let out a long sigh, and the expression on his face was very painful and entangled.

How is it decided? How else can you decide? What is the room for decision!

At this point in the battle, the defeat has been decided, and it is a certainty, so do you really want to die here and the city?

Li Shutai was in his heart, although he was extremely reluctant to choose such a helpless way to die, but could he really surrender to the Tang Army?

Li Shutai was stunned for a while, and immediately denied his own idea.

No, you can't descend, everyone else can descend, but you can't do it alone.

Because, as soon as he surrenders, his family in Shengjing is afraid that he will be poisoned by Dolgon immediately, and his wife and children will not be saved.

If they want to survive smoothly, then they can only fight and die here, this is their own fate......

At this moment, Li Shutai's eyes were filled with tears.

His face immediately became very awe-inspiring, and he shouted proudly: "The whole army is quickly divided into two parts, ready to fight to the death with the Tang army and the traitors!" ”

"Order!"

Wu Fangshi, the deputy general in the back, had a gloomy face and answered loudly.

Li Shutai ignored him again, then pulled out his sword, pointed at the Tang army in front of him who was getting closer and closer, and shouted: "Brothers, the time has come to serve the country, please work with the general to fight ......."

Before he could say the last enemy word, there was a sudden thump in his waist, and a huge pain came from his heart, and he almost fainted.

With an expression of extreme consternation, he turned to look over, but saw a thick hand holding a sharp waist knife, the long blade of which had penetrated deeply into his waist.

He raised his eyes, but it was the deputy general Wu Fangshi with a hideous expression. With that, he gripped the handle of his right hand and stirred it again.

, I really know people and don't know my heart, when I was still pretending to be a righteous and generous Wu Fang, I didn't expect it to be a guy with a human face and a beast's heart, a traitor who hides deeply!

"The dog entered, even you betrayed me......" Li Shutai endured the severe pain, blood dripping from the corners of his mouth, and he gritted his teeth and spit out this sentence.

"Efu, don't blame you for being ruthless, it's really that the brothers still want to live, and they can't die with you...... if you want to blame, blame you for not knowing the times." Vice General Wu Fangshi's eyes also flashed with tears, and the muscles on his face kept twitching.

Li Shutai's eyes had begun to drift, his whole face was almost distorted and deformed because of the severe pain, and he muttered in a low voice: "Let's go, in this case, you can give me a good time, and then, take the general's head, go and invite the Tang Army, and also give the brothers a way to live......"

"Attached master, don't worry, my knife will ...... soon"

Wu Fangshi's eyes were blood-red, tears were falling, he didn't speak anymore, gritted his teeth and roared, brushed the ground and pulled out his waist knife, and slashed away.

There was another thud, and where the knife flashed, Li Shutai's neck was as smooth as a mirror, and the blood was like a pillar, and his round head immediately soared into the air, like a carefree bird, fluttering and flying into the snow, and then, crossing a long arc, fell on the snow in the distance.

And his corpse, which was still spurting blood, fell to the ground softly, splattering blood, staining the snow-white earth into a palpitating color.

In real history, Li Shutai, a traitor in the early Qing Dynasty who fought from Liaodong to Guangdong, made great contributions to the unification of the whole country by the Qing Dynasty, and finally served as the governor of Guangdong, in this history changed by Li Xiao, died at the hands of his own generals and died in this insignificant little Yaozhou city in the official history, which is a kind of fatalistic irony.

Seeing that Li Shutai was killed by the deputy general Wu Fangshi, the Han soldiers next to him were all stunned, and everyone looked at Wu Fang, who was splashed with blood, and looked extremely terrifying, and they didn't know how to face the current situation that completely exceeded their own thinking ability.

At this time, Wu Fangshi ignored everyone's frightened eyes, he kicked away the corpse of Li Shutai who fell to the ground, hurriedly walked a few steps, picked up the head of Li Shutai who was covered with slush that rolled to the ground, walked quickly to the front of the formation, and shouted at the Tang army who was about to stand on the opposite side: "Brother Tang Jun, show mercy under the knife, I have beheaded the main general Li Shuitai who is stubborn to the end, and now our army is willing to surrender, willing to surrender!" ”

Hearing Wu Fangshi's repeated shouting, he was only a dozen steps away from rushing to the Tang army in front of him, and he was stunned by the Tunqi Kabu who was dozens of steps away from rushing to the left.

No way?

This Li Shutai was actually killed by his own anti-water generals, this guy died an unusual death.

Wu Fangshi held Li Shutai's head in his hand, kept shouting hoarsely, and finally waited for a shout in the Tang army's array, and then all the Tang troops stopped moving forward, and then, a Tang army general in stainless steel armor, under the protection of a group of guards, came to him.

This general was Liu Guoneng, the deputy mayor of Xingzhong Town of the Tang Army, and after hearing that Li Shutai had been killed by his own subordinates, he was ordered by Li Xiao to accept the surrender of the remaining Han troops.

The battle for Yaozhou City ended with a complete victory for the Tang army.

Speaking of which, in this war, although the Tang army paid the price of as many as fifteen guns and dozens of gunners were killed or wounded, it finally achieved its strategic goal perfectly, not only taking the entire city of Yaozhou, but also finally forcing the enemy troops in the city to fight back and kill their own commander-in-chief Li Shutai, and surrender to themselves.

Li Xiao was quite satisfied with this result, so after he heard Wu Fangshi's almost crazy cry for surrender from a distance, he agreed without hesitation, and then immediately sent Liu Guoneng to surrender.

At this time, when he was about ten steps away from Wu Fangshi, Liu Guoneng reined in the horse's hooves, sat upright on the horse's back, looked Wu Fangshi up and down with a cold gaze, and then began to ask in a mocking tone.

"What's your name? Did you kill this Li Shutai? Are you really surrendering? ”

Listening to Liu Guoneng's question, Wu Fangshi immediately knelt on the ground with his legs, held Li Sutai's bloody head high with both hands, and said respectfully to Liu Guoneng: "When I went down to Wu Fang, I was the deputy general under Li Shutai. Because Li Shutai did not know the current affairs, the whole army had reached the death point, but he still insisted on fighting against the heavenly soldiers, and we were unwilling to die with you, so I was forced to have no choice but to kill him to join your army. We have beheaded the court and attached to Li Shutai, there is really no way to retreat, and in the future will definitely be sincerely loyal to your army, I hope that your army will accept us all regardless of the past suspicions, and we brothers should be grateful! ”
