The place of surrender was set on the official road outside Dongzhimen, because it was close to Shimen County. Diao led the army to arrive, Tuoba Xiaoxiao had already led a hundred officials in the same place, white clothes and ties, that is, for the king's death, but also for Chen Guo's mourning, Tuoba Xiaoxiao is not a king, can not hang the Chen Guochuan jade seal that symbolizes their power in the neck, let a row of internal officials stand aside, the head of the heirloom jade seal covered with a green cloth, the rest of the seal lined up.

A large number of literary books are arranged on a single case, and the white cloud swallowing sky flag, which symbolizes Chen Guo, is lined up one by one.

In the same heart as Dia Bird, this is an adventure, who can know that surrender will make the people happy? Who knows that surrender will save their lives? And the only thing that can guarantee this is the credit of Dia Bird, the king of Eastern Xia. The mountain-like Tuoba Xiaoxiao inherited the stout size of his father, the yellow beard under his forehead was scattered, and there was a deep sorrow in his eyes, if he was a mediocre child king who did not know anything about the world. There is no kind of pain that disappoints the ancestors and ancestors and disappoints Chen Guo's common people, but he is not, so he is in tears.

At the same time, there is also a sense of forbearance and humiliation that goes deep into the bone marrow.

Tying the neck is also a kind of heroic energy.

A few days ago, he had the privilege of meeting Dia Bird. At that time, because both sides had a group present, and did not have too much private contact, his impression remained on Dia Bird's harsh insistence on the conditions, just one sentence, handing over the army is sincerity, this kind of strength made Tuoba Xiaoxiao affirm that Dia Bird is a domineering and uncompromising figure.

And with this kind of strength and control, most of his people are arrogant and difficult to get along with, no matter how many good things Guo Jia says, this impression is difficult to change.

Therefore, Tuoba Xiaoxiao felt apprehensive.

He doesn't know if he will humiliate himself and what kind of humiliation he will be after he has no bargaining chips, and he doesn't know if he can withstand it with his strong character.

For this reason, he once again raised his neck, a big head, a good man, everything he had to do was done, and he just died.

The eastern glow is all over the sky, as quiet as a pine forest falling needle, and suddenly the horns of the ox shook the sky.

The cavalry advances, shouting loudly, and the consistent stepping point is not half high-pitched, but thick and short, enough to break bridges, cause avalanches, and make people frightened.

This is the self-proclaimed invincible army of the Eastern Xia, the mighty army, the army that claims to be invincible in the autumn, the civilized army, did not see its army, and the first to oppress others.

Thundered.

The footsteps and the slow march of the horse team were not like this, but this was the only word for everyone to describe.

The army began to appear in sight, as if it were not a team, but a hand and a foot, from far and near, stationed separately, infantry ascending, cavalry stationed, and there were long dragons moving forward, like a blue-brown spring, a stream of work and rest, trickling endlessly.

Tuoba Xiaoxiao's eyes were full of surprise.

It's not that he hasn't fought with Dongxia, but it's a state of battle, and he can't see the whole picture.

It is only today that we can get a glimpse of this army, and no country, which elite has been trained to this kind of process, can make the world only brush the same suppression.

Closer, the cavalry began to pave the way, in an orderly manner, with bright armor and long knives, and a murderous aura.

In the end, only a golden guard of honor was advancing to open the way, a guard behind was slowly marching, and the rest were arrayed aside.

The soldiers of the four fields vibrated their weapons in unison and shouted briefly: "Howl." Howl. Howl. Long live the king. Long live the king. ”

Honor guards also began to scatter on both sides.

A guard wrapped in horse coats came to the front of Chen Guo's soldiers and civilians alone, the metal horse coats made a jingling ring, and the golden cover shone brightly.

Some of Chen's ministers were already gritting their teeth, and Gadada rattled.

Tuoba Xiaoxiao buried his head from afar, pulled his chest, knelt down, and shouted: "Descend to Tuoba Xiaoxiao to welcome the Son of Heaven of the Kingdom, please accept my lord's surrender." ”

The ministers of the Chen State followed, echoing the chorus, and the black pressure overwhelmed the kneeling.

Dia Bird grabbed the reins of the horse, jumped down, walked to the side of the Clicka Tiger, took the Clicka Tiger, and then walked over with the Clicka Tiger's hand, and whispered as he walked: "Tiger, we should not be proud of the defeat of others, and it is not a kind of courage for people to admit defeat." ”

Ta Ta Erhu stubbornly said: "Battle would rather die, how can he admit that he has failed." ”

Diao knew that his son had this problem, and said leisurely: "Defeat is defeat, if you don't admit defeat, won't you be defeated?" If you want to be undefeated, you must make every effort to govern the country and occupy the right time, place and people, and if you are really defeated, do you still have to bury the lives of the people and subjects with yourself? He pointed forward with a horsewhip and said: "This is a brave general, bowing down as a corporal, supported by soldiers, and now, he is using his humiliation to relieve the misfortune of the world, and he doesn't want to shed blood in vain, isn't this a hero?" ”

"And only if he surrenders valiantly, and cares for the lives of his soldiers and civilians, can he make a comeback when the time is ripe." ”

Da Erhu let out an "ah" and asked rhetorically: "He still wants to make a comeback." ”

Dia Bird said, "Yes." Everyone has their own ideals to strive for in their life. Why can't he make a comeback? ”

Da Da Erhu hurriedly said, "Then kill him, right?" ”

Dia Bird smiled and said, "Why? Could it be that if you kill him, you will just wait to stop the heroic Tuoba boy from rising again? The indomitable comeback, can the steel knife be cut out? He said quietly: "The way to prevent people from resurgence is not to kill people, but to win the hearts of the people, without losing morality, without leaking flaws, and without giving opportunities." Moreover, killing those heroes who are admired by others is the same as killing those innocent people and soldiers, it is a matter of not descending, but it is losing the hearts and minds of the people. A true hero is tolerant and has to convince other heroes. ”

He asked, "Do you want to see Abba convince him?" ”

Di Heihu led the dismounted knights to catch up, surrounded them, and stood in what he felt was important.

Dia Bird wanted to speed up his pace, but he thought that the tiger was walking slowly, so he simply picked him up.

Da Da Erhu was nervous, and hurriedly said, "Abba, I'm older." There are so many people, don't hug me. ”

Still, he took his arms around Diao's neck and whispered in Diao's ear, "Abba." You said there would be no Assassins. I'll catch him for you. ”

Dia Bird smiled.

As he got closer and closer to Tuoba Xiaoxiao, he stopped talking, focusing his attention and attention, and Tuoba Xiaoxiao knelt on the ground, trembling with excitement.

Dia Bird put down the Rata Tiger and quickly stepped forward to lift him up from the ground.

Guo Jia came from the side and reminded the master of ceremonies to sing.

Then the master of ceremonies of Chen Guo raised his singing voice and shouted: "Please surrender to the kingdom." Please go to heaven and be safe. ”

The ministers knelt down and shouted.

The tiger crossed his feet and crossed his feet, as if looking for any dissatisfaction.

Guo Jia signaled to Di Heihu again, asking them to step forward and stand against the seal. Then he reminded the person holding the heirloom jade seal to go to Dia Bird and Tuoba Xiaoxiao.

Tuoba Xiaoxiao repeatedly dismissed the courtesy of Dia Bird, and when the jade seal of the country arrived beside him, he held it high with both hands, presented it to Dia Bird, and said categorically: "Please accept the seal of the king, and treat the people of my Chen country well from now on, the king inherits the mandate of heaven, and we sincerely surrender, and we are willing to serve for generations and never betray." ”

Dia Niao took the seal, and saw that Di Heihu was waiting to be taken away, but he put it back, put it back in Chen Guoren's tray, and said softly: "Lone is just surrendering on behalf of the Son of Heaven." How can you take the seal for yourself? In the eyes of the lonely, the seal is just a dead thing, and a hero like Brother Xiaoxiao is a treasure that the younger brother values. ”

He went to save it again.

Tuoba Xiaoxiao stabbed the ground again, because of vigilance, and shouted in his mouth: "The minister is not a hero, the king is killing the minister." ”

Dia Bird smiled: "Who said it's not a hero? ”

He forcibly pulled Tuoba Xiaoxiao up, grabbed one of Tuoba Xiaoxiao's hands, and raised it together.

He asked the ministers of Chen State: "The third prince is willing to bear his name for the sake of your life and the people of Chen State, is he a real hero?" ”

Guo Jia was stunned.

Di Heihu was stunned.

The tiger opened his eyes wide and was extremely curious.

Dia Bird pulled Tuoba Xiaoxiao and walked directly in front of Minister Chen, seeing that they were silent, he hooked his foot and asked, "Are you a real hero?" Is it a real hero to be humiliated for thousands of lives? ”

The minister hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

Diao turned around and asked, "Why don't you dare to answer?" ”

Everyone suddenly shouted one after another: "It's a real hero." ”

Tuoba Xiaoxiao couldn't help crying, two lines of tears burst out, the sweetness of surrender and the struggle in her heart, who knows? But the great enemy of the enemy, Dia Bird, knew it.

Diao raised his arm and said solemnly, "Tuoba Xiaoxiao." You will always have the respect of loneliness. You are the hero of the bloodshed of the two countries. On the battlefield, you are a fierce general, you don't blink when you kill, you don't blink when you are killed, off the battlefield, you cherish your life, you are a big hero, and you are a model for the people of the world. No matter what others say, how they are treated, or how they are abused, you are a true hero, a true hero, and a real battle in your lonely heart. ”

He pulled Tuoba Xiaoxiao back, stood on the high platform prepared for him, stood together, and shouted hoarsely and forcefully: "Please thank you three times, and you should thank you for protecting your wife." ”

The subjects of Chen State and a small number of soldiers suddenly fell on their stomachs.

They shouted one after another: "Third Prince Xie saves our lives." ”

After the three of them thanked him, Dia Bird turned his head, and Dia Bird faced Di Heihu: "Pass the order." Please thank the Dongxia soldiers three times. ”

After a while, the internal and external voices of the Dongxia soldiers shouted in unison: "The third prince of Xie knows the situation of the world, for not killing, for benevolence, for the people, for the soldiers." ”

Tuoba Xiaoxiao stumbled and tried his best to restrain himself, but he still knelt down on one knee.

He wiped away a handful of tears and said in a low voice, "Great King." There are many scenes of the ministers meeting you, but they didn't expect that the king would not humiliate the ministers, but give the ministers such a high reputation and respect. Dia Bird took him by the arm and said, "No need to be polite." Our hearts are aligned. The righteousness we uphold is the same, and so is the benevolence we want to practice in the world. If the people, the army, and the people are all right, who will spare their lives and do nothing? ”

He whispered: "Brother should worship God with Gu and swear to be good to the people." ”

In fact, the people of Chen Guo want to know the result, Tuoba Xiaoxiao is just afraid that there will be more accidents and forbid them to get closer, but there are more and more people, more and more, and they can't stop, and finally they get close enough, Diao took Tuoba Xiaoxiao, and told Changshengtian, Tuoba God, Haotian God, read the proclamation, and read the oath to treat the military and civilians well.

With the mountain cry of the Dongxia army, they also followed and shouted: "Long live the king of Dongxia, and the third prince is a thousand years old." ”

In fact, Dia Bird can't afford to live long live.

However, the soldiers have more and more this tendency, and they can replace them when they are called, which is repeatedly prohibited. It's not strange to see it, Dia Niao didn't feel anything surprising, and summoned Ta Da Erhu to salute Tuoba Xiaoxiao, and made a personal friendship, and when the follow-up important ministers came up, they introduced Tuoba Xiaoxiao, and Tuoba Xiaoxiao also introduced several important people and important officials to Dia Bird, including Chen Guo's Liang Zhongyin.

In this huge momentum, the ministers handed over the papers, and he rushed to the main gate of Zhinan with Tuoba Xiaoxiao to start the ceremony of parading into the city. And as he walked along the road, he suddenly began to propose an additional step. He said, "Lone asks to go with you to the temple of your Tuoba clan to be an outsider and express my remembrance of them. Erhan's father is newly deceased, and he respects him alone, and he also asks for only the body of the descendants to worship him with your relatives. ”
