"General! None of the people we sent out to fetch water came back! The guards came to the hall and said to Meng Xu. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"It's been two days! None of the people who were sent out came back? Meng Xu asked.

"Yes! Checkmate! The guard said helplessly.

"How long can the water in the village last?" Meng Xu said solemnly.

"Save it and it can last until tomorrow night!" The guard said heavily.

Meng Xu sat down weakly in his seat, pondered for a while, and said, "You go!" Get me Meng Chao! ”

"Yes!" The guards took the order, and a quarter of an hour later, a loud voice sounded outside the door: "I said big brother! What are you looking for me? ”

Meng Xu looked at his unsuccessful younger brother and shook his head helplessly: "Sit down first!" Big brother has something to say to you! ”

"Just say it! I've got something to do! Don't sit down! Meng Chao said with a smile.

"Is there anything you can do more than your life right now?" Meng Xu shouted angrily.

Meng Chao had never seen his eldest brother so angry, and was taken aback, and then obediently sat on the chair according to his eldest brother's request, and after sitting down, Meng Chao whispered: "Okay! Eldest brother! Command something! The little brother went to the soup and went to the fire! Don't hesitate! ”

Meng Xu stroked his forehead weakly, he really wanted to change someone, but there was no one around him who could be trusted, except for this Ma Daha's own brother.

"Listen!" Meng Xu said weakly, "Now that the mountain has been surrounded by the Ming army, even our water source has been controlled......"

"Big brother! The little brother is willing to be a pioneer! Take the brothers to kill him and turn him on his back! Meng Chao slapped his chest with a bang.

"Shut up! It's not enough for you to stuff people's teeth with such a small number of people! Meng Xu shouted angrily.

Meng Chao suddenly closed his big mouth and sat quietly on the side, Meng Xu saw that he was quiet and continued: "Now there are two choices, the first one, let's take the money and break up!" The second, bring money and people to surrender to the Ming army, and give yourself a certain official position! Which do you choose? ”

"Big brother! Bring money and break up! Where is the money? Our father and mother also left us a lot of gold and silver treasures? Meng Chao's eyes lit up.

Meng Xu shook his head weakly and said, "It was left by King Pu!" ”

"Then if he comes back one day to settle the score! What do we do? It's a terrible day, it's uncomfortable, I think we still want to find the Ming army to surrender, a certain official and a half-job, settle down and start a business, and be worthy of the underground father," Meng Chao thought for a while.

"Good!" Meng Xu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Since that's the case, then the eldest brother will give you a task!" ”

"Big brother, just command!" Meng Chao hugged his fists.

"It's an epistle! You can go down the mountain and hand it over to Qin Liangyu, the commander of the Ming army! Meng Xu said with a smile.

"It's as simple as that?" Meng Chao was stunned.

"It's that simple!" Meng Xu nodded.

"What if they arrest me?" Meng Chao said worriedly.

"Then the big brother will lead people to fight for them! But presumably they won't catch you, don't worry! Meng Xu comforted.

"Okay! Let's go! Meng Chao clenched his fists, then took the letter, strode out of the hall, watching Meng Chao leave, Meng Xu couldn't help but silently pray that everything would go well.

"Brother Meng! Where are you going? One more time? A soldier greeted.

"I'll play with you when my brother completes the task! Let's go with my brother! Hurry up! Meng Chao greeted.

"What are you going to do, Brother Meng!" A soldier asked.

"Go and get rich! To go or not to go? Meng Chao said with a smile.

"Let's go! We will do whatever Brother Meng says! Several soldiers laughed.

Soon, Meng Chao led a dozen soldiers to the water source at the bottom of the mountain......

"The last general thinks they should make a move! Tomorrow will be three days! Xu Chengming said with a smile.

Qin Liangyu nodded after hearing this, and then said, "If you were their leader, what would you do?" ”

"It depends! Like our Majesty, the minister is willing to be loyal! Shed the last drop of blood for the Daming country! Xu Chengming said a little impassionedly, and then he looked at Qin Liangyu, and saw that Qin Liangyu was still looking at him with a smile, so he continued: "I think the enemy chief is not such a person, so if I am an enemy general." I will have two choices, the first is to set up another mountain with my loyal brothers or to live in this mountain with my loyal brothers, and the second choice is to lead the army and surrender to seek a better future for myself and my brothers under my command! ”

"Hmmm! Very well analyzed! So what is the end result? Qin Liangyu said with a smile.

"The second one, of course! Seek a good future! Xu Chengming looked at him.

"That's right! It's time for them to come! Qin Liangyu said confidently.

As he spoke, a soldier came and said, "Report to the lieutenant governor!" Outside, a man who claimed to be the younger brother of Meng Xu, the enemy guard, asked to see him! ”

"Look! It's coming! Qin Liangyu said with a smile, and then said to the soldiers: "Let him come in!" ”

"Yes!" The soldier took the order and left.

Soon, a loud voice came from outside the tent: "Not bad! Not bad! I thought I was going to be escorted in! Now you're very kind to us! Then, a burly man appeared in front of Qin Liangyu and the others, and after seeing this burly man look around, he immediately locked on to Qin Liangyu, who was sitting in the middle of the main seat. Immediately, he came directly to Qin Liangyu and saluted: "See Lord Qin!" ”

Qin Liangyu nodded and said, "No need to be polite!" Sit! ”

"Thank you, sir!" Meng Chao smiled, and then saluted the others one by one: "Hello generals!" Meng Chao is polite! ”

Seeing a burly man learning from those civil officials in the court, Xu Chengming and the others almost laughed, but they all held back, and they all nodded with a friendly smile.

After Meng Chao sat down, he didn't wait for Qin Liangyu to ask, so he said directly: "Lord Qin! You must also understand the purpose of the little one's coming, that is, please surrender! This is my brother's letter to you! Please take a look at it! After speaking, he took out the letter that Meng Xu gave him from his chest and respectfully handed it to Qin Liangyu, Qin Liangyu took it with a smile, then looked at it, after browsing it, closed it gently, put it on the table, and said with a smile: "First of all, Qin Mou welcomes you to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and I am very happy that you can make such a wise decision, but Qin Mou can't and has no right to agree to all the conditions in your brother's letter, so Qin Mou writes a letter and you take it back to your brother, as for how to decide in the end, it depends on his own will!" ”

"Okay! That's it! Thank you, sir! "Meng Chao hugged his fists.

Qin Liangyu quickly ordered someone to bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstone to write a reply letter, dried the pen and ink, put it in an envelope, and then handed it to Meng Chaodao: "You take this letter back, and your brothers from the other two days ago can also take it back, and you can also bring some water back!" ”

"Thank you so much, sir!" Meng Chao clenched his fists, then respectfully retreated and handed over.

"Lieutenant Governor! What does the adversary want? Xu Chengming said curiously.

"It's nothing, I just want to continue to hold a certain position in the army, and if the autonomous region is established in the future, I will also give him a one-and-a-half official position, and finally treat the brothers he brought over well!" Qin Liangyu said with a smile.

"And what are they paying for?" Xu Chengming continued to ask.

"It's their people and the treasure of the enemy chieftain!" Qin Liangyu said with a smile.

Hearing the treasure, the eyes of everyone present suddenly lit up, everyone knew that the general reputation had been wantonly scraped in Yunnan, especially in the Guogong Mansion, the wealth that had been scraped was countless, and the generals thought that they were about to flow out, Xu Chengming smiled and said: "Then the governor agreed?" ”

Looking at their appearance, Qin Liangyu said solemnly: "Everyone! It's better to put away your thoughts and put down the rebellion with peace of mind! ”

"How so? We didn't think about anything! Lieutenant Governor rest assured! It's just that we think, isn't there still Zhongxingwei on top? We don't dare to lend us a hundred dares! Liu Yangkun said with a smile.

"Zhongxingwei?" Qin Liangyu shook his head, "You can see this Zhongxingwei, and there are people who can't see it!" ”

"What?" Confused?

"Do you know the mysterious man in black who shot twice in the Guogong Mansion?" Qin Liangyu said with a smile.

"Are they?" Xu Chengming was taken aback.

"I heard that the elder said that it seems to be called Yinlongwei, I don't know what to do, I just know that they reported directly to His Majesty! Got it? Qin Liangyu said with a smile.

Looking at the people who were in a daze, Qin Liangyu said with a smile: "You don't have to think about it, the court that should reward you will not be stingy!" ”

"Lieutenant Governor! You think too much! Of course we do! Everyone was busy talking, and Qin Liangyu who was watching it was amused.

Meng Chao quickly returned to the Ge Dragon Village with people, and then Meng Chao immediately came to Meng Xu and gave Qin Liangyu's letter to his eldest brother.

"How?" Meng Xu asked.

"Okay! That Qin Liangyu is good, the Ming army is also good, they didn't embarrass us, I also brought back the brothers who were arrested by them two days ago, and they also let us fetch water back! Meng Chao responded with a smile.

Meng Xu nodded, spread out the letter and read it, and then frowned, the content of Qin Liangyu's reply was that he and his younger brother could be given a certain position in the army, and even the wealth he brought in the past was enough, the imperial court could give him a promotion according to his merits, and his younger brother could too, but she couldn't agree to be an official in the autonomous region, and she had to act in accordance with the regulations of the imperial court! To sum up, after surrendering, it can be guaranteed that they have official jobs, food and clothing are worry-free, and those who bring them over will be treated well, will not be discriminated against, and can directly join the Ming army and enjoy new treatment according to the new military reform.

"Big brother! How do you decide? Meng Chao said.

"Look at it!" As he spoke, Meng Xu handed over the letter.

"Yes! If you have an official, you can do it! Isn't there still a chance to be promoted, big brother! So be it! Don't grind and chirp like an old! Meng Chao shook off the letter.

Meng Xu was speechless for a moment, Meng Chao looked at Meng Xu and said, "Big brother! This Qin Liangyu looks very pleasing to the eye, I think she will definitely not lie to us, and these Ming soldiers are also good to us, and the brothers who came back said so! The most important thing is that now we are asking for surrender, as long as we can have this, it is much better than guarding those treasures with fear! ”

Meng Xu looked at Meng Chao and was stunned for a while, and then smiled for a while: "I didn't expect you to look better than the eldest brother!" Yes! So be it! Pack up the stockade and let's go meet the imperial army! ”

"Haha! Brother Hooler! Meng laughed loudly......
