"Daddy, why are you so stupid?" For a long time, Zong Ying cried.

"For the sake of the country's righteousness, I have to betray Emperor Jianyan! However, I was always uneasy in my heart! Instead of living in the world with such trepidation, it is better to die with peace of mind! I was disloyal to Emperor Jianyan and sinned against him, but I used my life to wash away my sins, and I hope that when I go underground, he will forgive me! Actually, I'm happy now, I thought I wouldn't see a day of unification of the country in my life, but now I see it! Moreover, I know that Emperor Xuanwu has extremely strong troops, and the recovery of the Central Plains is just around the corner, so I am really happy in my heart! It is my dream to recover the Central Plains, and Emperor Xuanwu can realize this dream for me! A smile appeared on Zong Ze's pale face and said.

"Daddy, don't say any more." Zong Ying cried.

"Boss, is there any cure?" Wang Yan said anxiously, he held Zong Ze, and the internal force went towards Zong Ze's body. It's a pity that Zong Ze's heart has been broken, and any internal force is helpless.

"I'm hopeless! Now I have something to say to you! Anyway, sooner or later it's a death, let me finish. Zong Ze leaned against the city wall and said.

Zong Ying couldn't cry, and Wang Yan also had tears in his eyes.

"After I die, you must not rebel! You must know that the country has not been reunified with great difficulty, and our country can no longer afford to experience civil strife! The unification of the country is the will of the people, and if anyone rebels, the people will not agree. Zong Ze said.

"We know." Wang Yan said.

"I feel that the means of governing the country today are very different from those of previous dynasties, and he implemented the rent reduction order, which is an important measure for the benefit of all the people in the world! However, if the rent reduction order is implemented in Jiangnan, the official gentry are likely to be dissatisfied, and Jiangnan may be chaotic for a long time! You read him a book for me and tell him to do things safely, step by step! At the beginning, he implemented rent reduction orders in Hanzhong and Sichuan Shu in order to win the hearts of the people, and now in Jiangnan, in order to win the hearts of the people, the best way is to keep Jiangnan as it was! Even if the rent reduction order is introduced, it can be implemented in the northern provinces. The policies are different, the people will naturally go to the north, and the Jiangnan gentry will naturally suggest that His Majesty implement the rent reduction order when they have no choice but to do so. Zong Ze said again.

"The child understands." Zong Ying said.

"When Emperor Xuanwu was in Hanzhong and Guanshan, he was diligent and never luxurious, this is a good thing, among the many emperors of our Great Song Dynasty, no one can compare to him! But I'm afraid that after he dominates the world, he will also build a palace like the rest of the emperors, and he will be extravagant! You write for me and persuade him. Zong Ze said.

Zong Ying and Wang Yan nodded.

"The military aircraft department and staff headquarters he established in Hanzhong and Guanshan have great power, and almost no one can restrain him! He was fine when he was in power, but if another emperor succeeded him a hundred years later in the future, wouldn't it be a great chaos in the world? In the book for me, I said that the power of the Military Aircraft Department and the General Staff Headquarters is too great and must be restricted! Zong Ze said again.

Zong Ying and Wang Yan nodded again.

"When I was serving as the magistrate of Zhejiang and Shandong, I also wrote down some of the ways of governing the country in my heart, and you compiled these into a book! Also, there are some of my experience in the art of war on the desk of the government office, as well as the various formations I have collected in the Great Song Dynasty for more than 100 years, and you have compiled these into a book. Let's hope this will be passed on. Zong Ze said.

He also has a hint of fame and fortune, and hopes that what he has written will be passed on.

At this moment, his face was getting paler and paler, his eyes were getting darker and darker, his body slowly softened, Wang Yan and Zong Ying hurriedly squatted down and hugged his body with their hands.

"Don't worry, Daddy, these are what children should do." Zong Ying cried.

The three of them were talking here when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, and a tall figure rushed up from below! It's Zhang Jun!

There were more than a dozen rebel generals behind Zhang Jun, but their speed was not as fast as Zhang Jun, and they were also hurrying over.

Further afield, more rebels arrived.

When Zong Ze cut off his heart before, the rebel soldiers next to him had already seen it, and they had already hurried to call the others.

"My lord! What happened to you? Zhang Jun came to Zong Ze and said anxiously.

The relationship between Zhang Jun and Zong Ze is average, but he still admires Zong Ze very much and thinks that this is a great old man. Seeing Zong Ze like this, he was also shocked!

When the generals of the rebel army came to Zong Ze, they kept crying bitterly.

"It's great that you're all here! I have already told Wang Yan and Zong Ying just now, and now I will tell you again! Now that Emperor Jianyan is dead, and Emperor Xuanwu has become the only emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, you must not betray Emperor Xuanwu! The Great Song Dynasty suffered a catastrophe and lost my life, I have been working hard to recover the Central Plains all these years, but unfortunately I did something wrong later, and fought a civil war with Emperor Xuanwu here! Our Great Song Dynasty can no longer have civil strife, and we can no longer encounter such a catastrophe! If you betray Emperor Xuanwu and the Great Song Dynasty after I die, I won't be at ease when I die! Zong Ze said.

The surrounding generals nodded their heads with tears in their eyes.

"I'm going to die, fortunately I have no regrets...... the corners of Zong Ze's mouth showed a smile again, but the smile slowly solidified on his face, and Zong Ying next to him shouted, but Zong Ze didn't respond.

******

Yu Yunwen came here after Zong Ze held his breath.

He knelt down in front of Zong Ze's body to pay his respects.

In China, the more disasters encountered, the more heroes emerge! Zong Ze is also a heroic figure!

He cared about the country all his life, and even when he was dying, he still cared about the stability of the country, and did not want to see the country divided and unsettled. He is a Confucian courtier, Confucianism pays attention to loyalty, and he never forgets a word of loyalty. He once saved Zhao Chen's life, and also once truce war for the righteousness of the country and Guanshan, it is said that he has made great contributions to Zhao Chen, and Zhao Chen will definitely not treat him badly, but he would rather commit suicide in order to fulfill the loyalty in his heart.

For such a character, Yu Yunwen respects it from the bottom of his heart.

When it was early in the morning, Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu, who got the news, also came here.

At this moment, Zong Ze's mourning hall had been erected, and Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu kowtowed and knelt in front of Zong Ze's spirit.

Countless generals and soldiers of the righteous army have also dressed in linen and filial piety to pay tribute to Zongze.

Until late at night that day, Yu Yunwen, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, Wang Yan, Zong Ying and others gathered again.

Wang Yan and Zong Ying were still wearing filial piety clothes, and the rest of them also had sad faces.

"Lord Yu, we have already thought about it and decided to surrender to Emperor Xuanwu." Wang Yan said.

"I thank you all on behalf of the people of the world!" Yu Yunwen said.

"Don't thank us! If it weren't for Master Zongze, it would probably be a long time before we made such a decision! Zhang Jun smiled bitterly. At least he himself was unwilling to take refuge in Zhao Chen. When he was outside Xiangzhou City, he hated Zhao Chen very much. At the beginning of the year, he did not agree to the peace talks. This time, it was Zong Ze's noble sentiments that moved him, and he was willing to surrender.

"How is our army here arranged? There are hundreds of thousands of troops here! Especially since the number of rebels exceeds 600,000! Wang Yan said.

"As for the army, since the country has been unified, there is no need for so many troops! The 600,000 people of the rebel army can return home! I don't know if General Wang Yan agrees? Yu Yunwen said.

"I promise! I was also a poor man, and then I became the leader of the rebel army, and I know what my brothers think. Many of the brothers were tired of their time in the rebels, and they all wanted to return home. However, the Central Plains is still under the occupation of the Jurchens, and they can't go back. Wang Yan said.

"I believe that it won't be long before the Central Plains will be recovered." Yu Yunwen said.

"Oh? These days, I have heard rumors in Chang'an City, some people say that the forbidden army has gone north to conquer Datong, but is there such a thing? Wang Yan said.

Han Shizhong, Liang Hongyu, Zhang Jun and others next to him also immediately listened.

"It's not just about laying the grounds! We have more than 300,000 troops into the north, of which 100,000 troops are stationed in Datong, Yanmen and other places, Yue Fei and Liu Qi led 80,000 troops into the grassland, and we have just received the news that they have defeated the 180,000 army led by Jin Wushu on the grassland! Moreover, they have already gone south! In addition, Li Xianzhong's 150,000 army has also advanced eastward! A total of more than 200,000 troops are about to occupy the entire Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures! After the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are defeated, we occupy the Great Wall, and it is almost impossible for the Jurchens in the north to go south, and we can slowly clean up the Jurchens and Liu Yu's puppet army in the Central Plains! We have a total of more than 700,000 troops in Guanshan, and if they all enter the Central Plains, there will be no problem in defeating the Jurchens! When the time comes, if you are willing to help, it will be the best. Yu Yunwen said with a smile.

"Has the general trend of the world become like this?" Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and others were taken aback, they didn't expect that so many things would happen in just half a year!

First, Zhao Chen entered the south of the Yangtze River, besieged Lin'an with 100,000 strange soldiers, and killed Zhao Gou, and then hundreds of thousands of troops from Guanshan entered the north, fought in the north, and even occupied the entire sixteen states of Yanyun! But Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun stayed in Guanshan, the news was blocked, and they didn't know anything. By the time they got the news, the situation in the world had become clearer.

"If Lord Zong Ze hears such news, he will definitely be very happy!" Wang Yan sighed softly and said.

"If the rebels return to their hometowns, each person can have ten acres of land and can distribute seeds!" Yu Yunwen said again.

This news had begun to spread among the rebels before, and now Yu Yunwen has officially confirmed it.

"Great!" Wang Yan said happily.

"As for the troops under General Zhang and General Han, they can stay, but they must be trained according to the methods of our Guanshan, and your army is also under the command of the General Staff Headquarters! Personnel from the Propaganda Department are also to be included in your army. Yu Yunwen said.

Zhang Jun and Han Shizhong frowned, Han Shizhong nodded first, and Zhang Jun finally nodded.

The country is unified, the army is a country. Domestication is also inevitable, otherwise, the country will not be truly unified.

"I hope that the army in the Chang'an area can complete the adaptation very quickly! When the time comes, we will go north together and enter Guanshan! But now General Zhao Zhe is going to lead 100,000 troops through Chang'an and Tongguan so that he can enter Hebei. I hope you can make way to open the Tongguan road. In addition, General Quduan will lead the army to annihilate all the remaining Jurchens in Guanshan, and I hope you can also cooperate and fight together. Yu Yunwen said again.
