There is endless good in life, and everything is sad in death. The whining river still sounded without stopping, and the crowd wept and mourned, as if to pour endless outpouring.

Tuoba Weiwei fell into a coma, unable to wake up.

Li Sijing discussed with several ministers and decided to quickly take advantage of the fact that Dongxia did not hit Wang He and recall the army. He ordered everywhere: "Recall the soldiers and horses to protect the Khan, but do not tell them about the situation of the Khan." ”

When part of the army was brought back, Tuoba woke up once.

This time, he was in a lot better spirits.

Everyone seemed to feel at ease, and hurriedly came to ask, without him, would it be a war or a surrender? Is it to run or to stay?

Tuoba Weiwei glanced at them and whispered, "It seems that I can only take advantage of my life." ”

He gasped violently and said, "Tell you again, descend to Eastern Xia, don't descend to the imperial court." Dia Bird is a generous man, even if he does not allow you to be an official, he can treat you well. You don't know what it means to be generous. My brother was bent on killing me, but when he was dying, he remembered me...... Tell your loved ones that only I can rely on. Don't you understand? Don't you know how precious the virtue of generosity is in the grassland? If I hadn't been kind to those Battle, where would I have so many talents? ”

He also said: "When the national teacher comes back from the other side, he will say that I don't want him anymore, let him return to his hometown." He is old, so don't let him worry about your business. If he ventures back to his homeland, and if he wishes to live in seclusion by the river king, keep it secret from him, and do not disturb him. In the eyes of the Jingkang people, he is a traitor, in the eyes of our Tuoba Department, how can he not be a god? Although the old Tuoba people were good at fighting...... But what kind of situation is it? Every year in the spring, many soldiers go out to fight with a mortal heart, in order to save food for the tribe, and the children at that time, as long as they are weaker, like Alcon, will be strangled to death by their parents with tears, I love Alcon very much, not because he likes to read, but because I always think of the scenes of the past. People say I hate the people in my tribe who laughed at me when I was a kid for wearing silk, do I hate? I don't hate, I know, many people have never seen silk in their lives......"

He reached out and stroked his son, then shook Li Jingsi's hand, gasped and said, "You are all my children." Abba's love for you is the same. If I die. Chen Guo survived, so he handed over the Khanate to Tuoba Xiaoxiao, you all have to listen to him, it's not that you are not excellent. It's that you have fought few battles, and your military achievements are not significant enough, and if your military achievements are not significant enough, you will not be able to calm the hearts of the people. ”

Li Jingsi didn't say anything, but Tuoba Weiwei's son was not humble and muttered: "He has also fought many defeats." ”

Tuoba Weiwei smiled.

After a while, he added, "It is impossible for Chen Guo to survive." Even if Jing Kang wanted to keep it to deal with Dia Bird, Dia Bird was just staring at him, would he be willing? Abba also wants you to be in harmony. I'm so tired, and although there are a lot of things I can't worry about, I can't do anything about them. What I can tell you is to make you surrender to Eastern Xia. We grassland people are also human beings, and we are of the same origin as the Yong people, why can they be brothers and oppress us people? Why do their guards preach at the border that our Tuoba ears are delicious? ”

He closed his eyes and said leisurely: "When I was a child, my mother married into the Tuoba clan with her own relatives, and she was not actually a princess. But my father Khan was pleased. He hoped to marry the Son of Heaven, he felt that he had an identity, and he also thought that he and the Central Plains people would live in harmony from now on. He was close to the Central Plains. But when I was 5 years old, he changed, and when he came back from the war, he pulled me out of my mother's arms, kicked me in the foot, and shouted, 'Jingkang dog, get out of here.' I hate him. He is my father, how can he do this to me. But later I learned that that year, the Jingkang people provoked the Murong clan to use troops against us. Thirteen Tuoba people were cut off their noses and ears at the border pass, and they were drunk. As a result, my mother was no longer favored by my father, and was bullied everywhere, and finally died of starvation. I don't know how to survive, and I'm strong. The brothers eat meat and say I deserve only grass...... I hunted by myself, caught mice, and pry sand cucumbers. I had only one thought at that time, and I was also a meat eater, and I ate meat not only by one person, but also by the whole tribe. ”

Among the ministers, there were many old Tuoba people, crying and wailing.

Tuoba Weiwei added: "I have never been proud of building a khanate. Never. I am proud of being a father who has raised many children, and I am proud of being a leader who has given birth to many more babies in my tribe and has been able to raise them. Whenever I am afraid in war, I use these to motivate myself...... Occupy the country of Chen and not leave, not because I am greedy, but because I feel that it is rich enough to give birth to our Tuoba people, but as a result, I am honored in Chenzhou and defeated in Chenzhou. ”

Suddenly, he didn't know whether he was in a trance or returned to his light, he screamed and grabbed Li Jingsi's hand and shouted, "Don't descend to Jingkang." Don't let them be arrogant again, cut off our ears and drink. ”

The ministers cried one after another: "Don't surrender to Jingkang." ”

He was relieved, lay back, slowly spread his hands, and said vaguely, "Let the god Tuoba bless you in the future." ”

Fan Guoshi howled and came back from the other side of the river, sitting on the raft, his old face full of snot and tears.

However, he was still in the middle of the river, and on the other side of the river began to cry out: "The king of Khan has gone, and he has returned to the god Tuoba." ”

Fan Guoshi stood up suddenly, as if he was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to shake for a moment.

After a moment, he shouted, "O King Khan." I'll go with you. Repay you for the kindness of a lifetime. ”

After shouting, he plunged to the Wang River, but the soldier who was ferrying did not catch him, and fell to his knees crying.

On the banks of the river there were constant cries: "The king of the Khan has gone." The sun of our Tuoba clan is extinguished. Without the protection of the Khan, what would we do? ”

On the other side of the river, many soldiers returned, some of whom were scattered by the Eastern Xia and ran back to the Wang River.

Some of them were kneeling, some were standing on the other side of the river, some were dumbfounded, some were crying.

Someone said leisurely: "Heaven gave birth to the king of Dongxia, so that he can go further, so he took away our king Khan." ”

Li Jingsi once again persuaded several ministers and said: "Although the Khan King said that we should surrender to Dia Bird, the Khan King went to the bank of the Wang River, and the Dongxia army came up in time, and it was also on the east bank, we need to mourn here, and if we can't get away for a while, the Jingkang soldiers will come to us faster." ”

This was just his rhetoric, and then he asked, "What can Dia Bird give you?" Surrendered Jingkang, with your strength, Jingkang is going to buy you with high-ranking officials. ”

The ministers were silent.

After all, Tuoba Weiwei had just gone, and his last words were not easy to disobey, but they agreed with Li Sijing's words in their hearts, surrendered to Dia Bird, and surrendered in defeat, and Dia Bird's Eastern Xia Kingdom almost did not retain vassals.

What's more, they still hate and look down on Dongxia.

Li Jingsi performed alone: "Dongxia annihilated our 300,000 troops and destroyed my father-in-law, if you surrender to him, you will be my enemy." Now the Khan's guard is under my command, and whoever surrenders to my enemy, I will unceremoniously kill him. ”

Finally, Shangzhu Guo He Zeming, who had been at odds with Li Jingsi, suddenly expressed his support, he was naturally not afraid of the guards in Li Jingsi's hands, but Dia Niao would indeed only take what he had in his hands, and could not give him anything he lacked. He said: "What General Li Jingsi said is not wrong at all. It is precisely because of the last words of the Khan that we strongly advocate the surrender of the Jingkang Dynasty, which is a credit. ”

He was not like Li Jingsi who was scared, but took the opportunity to cut off dissidents, walked up to a minister, and asked, "Is what I said right?" ”

The minister may have been moved, but because of his disagreement with Hezeming, he said coldly at this time: "I only listen to King Khan." The king of Khan asked me to die, and I will die, and I will not change his last words just because he is dead. ”

He Zeming drew his sword and slashed him to death.

Everyone wanted to move, and Li Jingsi immediately transferred the guards up.

He found that Tuoba Weiwei's son was also going to interfere, so he hurriedly walked over and whispered, "Brother." Abba is dead. You also have to think about yourself. Jingkang is orthodox. Jingkang can give you a title and give you an official title. ”

Tuoba Weiwei's son himself has no talent, so he stopped talking when he heard it.

Heze Mingyao showed off his might, returned to them, and said to Li Jingsi lightly: "Surrender Jingkang." I am showing my support for you with practical actions. But we can't be wishful. First of all, we must figure out how the Jingkang people treat us. Such a thing should be arranged as soon as possible. ”

Li Jingsi made a gesture of invitation to him and took him out to talk.

They came out to look at the sky, it was already dark, the camp of the Jingkang people had already set up, put on a posture of siege, and when they turned around, there was also a camp fire on the other side of the Wang River, which must be the camp of the Dongxia people.

Li Jingsi asked him softly, "What do you think about the Shangzhu Guoda?" ”

He Zeming lowered his voice and said, "Both sides invite profit." We sent individuals to the military camp of the Jingkang people. Sue them that the Khan's last order is for us to surrender to the Tanguts and see how they react. ”

He smiled and said, "General Li Jingsi is a Yongren. I didn't live with you before. At this time, it is to return to your Yong people, that is your people, and I will take this credit. ”

Li Jingsi hated such a villain.

But without Hezeming, he would not be able to suppress the other ministers, kill all the ministers, and then surrender, it would be no good for the Jingkang court, but it would cause criticism.

Li Jingsi agreed: "Shangzhu can be arranged. ”

He Zeming clapped his hands, found a member of his own clan, arranged it gently, and then patted him on the back and asked him to go to the Jingkang camp overnight.

Kenbu himself came up and was in the camp.

He didn't expect that the other people were not forcing him to send troops at all, taking advantage of the enemy's rush to help Chen Du, the cavalry and infantry opened the distance, and the middle road was ambushed.

But this is a good thing for him, there is an admirer of his joining the army and took the initiative to give him an idea, saying: "The suspicion that the gentleman is good at dictating will be solved now, you will say that Dia Bird has revealed the military information to you, you judge that he can win, and you are afraid that he will monopolize the advantage of victory, and if you don't have time to ask for instructions, you will act decisively, and the emperor will not blame, but will praise your merits." Look at the other side, Tuoba is in the big tent, and there are rumors that he is dead. ”

Jianbu responded coldly: "The eldest husband uses this trick to exonerate himself, won't he be ridiculed by the world?" What's more, I made it clear when the soldiers met, and at this time, I retorted, didn't I want to tell the soldiers that they could be good at their own affairs and not take responsibility in the future? What do I regret? Body. What about righteousness. ”

He waved his hand, sent the gray army away, sat upright in the door, suddenly chuckled, suddenly chuckled again, and said to himself: "Your Majesty." You've really found a good son-in-law. It's really singing for the world. When this war is over, the war is over. After a while, he said to himself: "The old man is equivalent to stealing credit from you." It's your own credit, but on top of the history, I'm afraid the old man will have to share it. It's a shameful achievement. Alas. It would have been much better if I had found him earlier and recruited him to his command. was one step away, and when he found it, he was already fighting against the imperial army in Wuxian. ”

He smiled and said, "The old man is old, how can I earn with you?" It's all up to you. False fame is not all good things, the more you carry righteousness, the more you care, the less negative you will be in the future, and the side troubles will not arise. ”

He laughed.

Thinking of the next few years, as soon as Dongxia thought of the side of the soldiers, he Dia Niao frowned sadly, afraid that his reputation would be ruined with his own hands, and he was happy.

He didn't have the crooked intestines of his advisers, and as soon as he judged it, he was extremely accurate, and after laughing, he poured out: "Everyone who cares about Qingshi is a loyal minister and a righteous man, what do I think he should do?" They all said that they couldn't find his shortcomings, but they found it for the old man, and this horizontal practice broke it for him, I don't know if His Majesty's heart disease is going to go. ”

He was laughing, and Diao, who was on the other side of the Wang River, was also drinking and celebrating with the generals in the camp, and he was also laughing.

He laughed so much that tears came down, but it was Kwa Jianbu who said: "This old man is really a good man, not the emperor's personal person, but the pillar of the country." ”

Privately, he was not so civilized with Jianbu.

This time, he used "old man" respectfully, which shows a bit of respect.

Everyone thought about the dignified Zhuguo, the great general Da Sima, the Marquis of Wanhu, on the day of victory, a head of hay, and was escorted back to Changyue in a prisoner car, but they were afraid that the emperor would also have a headache, whether to surrender the crime, kill the head, or acquit the acquittal, and suddenly leaned forward and leaned back with laughter.
