70 Surrender

Early the next morning, it was another large-scale meeting of the Chinese military, and this time Chengyuan also had to attend. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

In the past two promotions, there was a lack of one person, but it was Feng Taishi. Feng Dao came to the front line not on the orders of the government, but Guo Wei asked him to come to the town to help come up with ideas.

Feng Dao originally invited himself to return to his hometown, and the time limit was half a year, and he had to return to Bianliang to reset again in two months, so counting the time of the return trip, Feng Xianggong had to leave in more than ten days. However, today's absence is not for this matter, but this time the autumn weather is getting cooler, Feng Xianggong is too old and accidentally contracted a little cold, so he has to be served by a large group of servants to recuperate.

Chengyuan found that the second person in the first row of the commander of the Chinese army in the big tent on the left was suddenly not Han Tong, the commander of the national army, but was replaced by a military general about thirty years old, and Guo Rong was in the third, next to that person. That person was dressed in the uniform of the Protector Army Yacheng in the river, and Chengyuan immediately understood that he was Li Chongxun, the son of Li Shouzhen! Since he has changed the color of the so-called "Great Qin Army" back to the military regulations of the Protector Army, it shows that Li Shouzhen is willing to submit to the imperial court.

"Everyone is here," the boss spoke, "I want to introduce you to you today, this person is Li Chongxun, the son of Li Shouzhen. ”

The man in the middle of the river stood up and saluted everyone.

Cheng Yuan looked at this person roughly: he was in good spirits, heroic and upright, and obviously a person with strict military training, "It seems that Li Shouzhen has a lot of hopes for this son." Cheng Yuan said in his heart.

"I've seen all the generals." Li Chongxun's expression was slightly depressed, but there was a hint of calm, for a rebel general who was desperately willing to surrender, this expression was nothing unusual.

Chengyuan knew that there were many examples of surrendering and defecting in the war during the Five Dynasties period, and then he was immediately recruited, and this time in the face of Guo Wei's huge momentum, anyone must consider their own way back. He thought again: "Li Shouzhen originally proclaimed himself the king of Qin, but he did not dare to be the emperor. Even if he left a way back for himself, this guy is still an understanding person, at least smarter than in the official history before Chengyuan crossed. ”

"Li Chongxun," Guo Wei stared at his eyes, and said with a straight face: "You still have a strong team in the river, and now it is in the hands of Wang Jixun." If he does not come down, what shall he do? ”

"The sinner Li Chongxun originally wanted to go to Xinfeng in person to persuade General Wang to surrender with his father's tiger talisman, but the sinner was ordered by the strict family this time, and he had to talk to your army about the conditions for surrender, so he must have been unable to pull away."

Cheng Yuan said in his heart: "You even handed over the military horses, and you still dare to talk about the conditions?" Lee Shou-jeong turned out to be such a naΓ―ve person! ”

Li Chongxun continued: "Therefore, my father ordered me to hand over his tiger talisman to Guo Shuai, as long as Guo Shuai sends someone equivalent to me to go to General Wang Jixun with this tiger talisman, then he will definitely hand over all the last war horses and hand over to your army to surrender." ”

The so-called person who is "equivalent to Li Chongxun", of course, is Guo Rong! The ranking generals in the Chinese military account all turned their heads in unison and looked at Guo Rong's side.

Guo Rong stood up without hesitation and bowed his hand and said:

"The last will go!"

Since the tiger talismans are in the hands of Guo Wei's forbidden army, Wang Jixun's lone army certainly has no reason not to accept the negotiation conditions here and surrender obediently, you must know that Li Shouzhen is the first evil of this rebellion, and even he doesn't have to die, so Wang Jixun will not be punished.

Chengyuan knew this best, he remembered that it was written in the history books: even if Li Shouzhen did not surrender and committed suicide, Wang Jixun was still recruited by the imperial court because he was not the first evil, and he continued to serve as a general until the Great Song Dynasty, until Zhao Guangyi ascended the throne after the candle shadow axe incident, this person was killed......

So in Chengyuan's opinion, don't talk about Guo Rong, this matter is Guo Wei - even Liu Chengyou personally holds the tiger talisman in the past, there is no danger.

Guo Wei sat down without hesitation and responded: "Then so be it, Guo Rong, you take a team of personal soldiers, and then go to Xinfeng to surrender, and by the way, drive Wang Jixun's horses back." ”

He thought to himself: "This time, the problem of the lack of horses in the Holy Protector Army has also been solved, Li Shouzhen owes so many horses to the imperial court over the years, and this time it will be made up." ”

Guo Wei was about to announce the dismissal of the meeting, when Chengyuan suddenly stood up and arched his hand: "Marshal Qiyu, I suddenly feel that I can send one to join the army in the matter of Xinfeng's surrender, or just supervise the army, or let the people who came with the court this time be an offering officer, why let the general Jungui go in person?" Chengyuan didn't know why, he suddenly panicked in his heart just now, knowing that Guo Rong would definitely have no problem going to Xinfeng, but there was a vague worry.

For others, Guo Rong is just a commander of Xingjie even if he knows how to fight again, but from Chengyuan's point of view, Guo Rong is different from others, he is Zhou Shizong! He is the future lord of the Central Plains! This kind of mood is actually like if Liu Chengyou led a team of personal soldiers to find Wang Jixun in person, then Su Fengji and Li Ye would also be shocked......

Guo Rong looked at Cheng Yuan with a look of surprise, he didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd, and Guo Wei felt that Cheng Yuan had a bad idea, which made him very unhappy. You must know that if you let your son deliberately avoid this kind of trivial matter, won't the father and son of the Guo family become a litter of gutless rats in the court in the future?

"No more fooling around!" Guo Wei reprimanded Cheng Yuan, "Guo Rong, the commander of the Xingjie Army, will temporarily hand over all the affairs of the rear army's escort of grain and grass materials to others tomorrow, and then go to Xinfeng in person!" ”

"The last general," Guo Rong suddenly interjected, "Cheng Kuiyuan is so worried about the safety of the last general, loyalty and courage are rare, so he just let him go with me, what does the commander think?" ”

Cheng Yuan saw him looking at himself with a smile on his face, as if to say, "What are you afraid of for this little thing?" If you have the guts, come along? ”

Cheng Yuan was excited in his heart, and as soon as his face was hot, he arched his hand towards Guo Wei and said, "I am willing to go!" ”

"Accurate!" Guo Wei patted the case lightly.

Time was pressing, so Li Chongxun sent a soldier named Zhang Qiu to join the army and go with them. Cheng Yuan saw that Li Chongxun was still comfortable in Guo Rong's ear and explained how to speak more smoothly when he saw Wang Jixun, he thought to himself: "Li Chongxun's wife was originally going to become Guo Rong's Empress Fu in the future, but now since Li Chongxun can't die if he does this, and the Fu sisters can't be queens, and in the end, Emperor Zhou Gong Guo Zongxun (Chai Zongxun) can't be born, maybe without these two sisters, Guo Rong can live a few more years, um...... If you go back and choose a more reliable heir to the Great Zhou, then maybe there will be nothing to do with Brother Zhao Kuangyin......"

After thinking about it for a while, Chengyuan and Guo Rong returned to the rear army and ordered fifty personal soldiers to hurry up and hit the road.

……………………………………………………………………

Because the pro-army of the point are all knights, so according to common sense, from Puzhou out of Pujin Pass, and then Fengling Ferry across the Yellow River, and then out of Tongguan westward through Huazhou, you can come to Xinfeng.

However, when the group crossed Huayin to Lintong, they found a large area of camp tents in the distance. Zhang Qiu, a member of the army in Hezhong Mansion, said: "General Guo, Cheng Sima, and General Wang Jixun's residence is here. ”

"Isn't that right? Wang Jixun should be in Xinfeng? ”

"Hui Cheng Sima," Zhang Qiu said with a smile, "I can't figure it out about my humble position, I think it's because he has difficulties in receiving grain and grass, so he has to change to Lintong, a place close to Dacang, and stationed there." ”

Guo Rong sighed helplessly and said: "Wang Jixun has withdrawn here, and there is no news from the deployment of the Yongxing camp, what is Guo Congyi doing to eat?" ”

Zhang Qiu greeted the defenders at the gate of the camp, and asked them to report inward, and after a pillar of incense, the guard came back and said, "General Wang Jixun invites the two of you to the Chinese army tent for a while." Zhang Qiu stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Wang Jixun's Zhongjun: "Two please." ”

Guo Rong signaled to Cheng Yuan, and Cheng Yuan hurriedly handed over the box containing Li Shouzhen's tiger talisman. Guo Rong held the box high with his right hand, and walked with Chengyuan to Wang Jixun's Chinese army.

Entering the big tent of the Chinese army, there was no one in it, and after a while, a soldier and horse envoy came in and saluted Guo Rong, and took out the tiger talisman from the box:

"Wait a minute, wait for me to send this talisman to the general, and when he has a little inspection to confirm that it is correct, then I will come to entertain you."

Guo Rong was bored waiting in the tent, so he chatted with Chengyuan for a few words, and there was no one around, so the two of them talked more casually:

"Kuiyuan, Wang Jixun's army has a strict helmet, and the sergeants in the battalion are all trotting briskly back and forth, which is very effective."

Cheng Yuan also took a good look at it just now: "What Jungui said is right, and when the guard at the gate reported to the Chinese army just now, he hit back and forth with a stick of incense, and the speed of such an order is slightly inferior to that of the forbidden army." It seems that Li Shouzhen is really not stupid, and instead of being surrounded in the city and waiting for death, such a strong team should be put outside as a living chess player......"

Halfway through his words, a man in the main general's uniform hurriedly walked in, followed by a smiling little old man in gray clothes and gray hat.

"General Guo is sluggish and lazy, and the last general is rude, making the two of you wait for so long."

Guo Rong knew that this person was Wang Jixun, and since he was here to accept the surrender, he had to have a little fight, so he still didn't stand up to meet him, but nodded and said: "I know, you have worked hard, what is the result of the inquest of that tiger talisman?" ”

"It's the real thing! No problem! Wang Jixun stroked his palms and smiled, "But General Guo wants me to surrender...... This one...... The general's brain has never been bright enough, and I hope that General Guo will mention the benefits of surrender to me, why should I surrender? ”

"Do you need to talk about this?" Cheng Yuan on the side interjected: "The main city of Hezhong Mansion is besieged and the water is impassable, and now that all the military horses have been surrendered, General Wang will certainly not be able to go to Hezhong again." Also, if you want to go west to Chang'an, there are Guo Congyi and General Wang Jun in the middle, so it is no fun to connect with Zhao Siwan. ”

"That's a good point!" Wang Jixun responded with a smile.

"And what can the general do when he enters Chang'an City? The reason why Zhao Sijuan dared to rebel was because there was an army in the river in front, if the river was surrendered, why didn't he tie up General Wang and simply dedicate it to the imperial court? Instead of being caught by Zhao Siwan and sent to the imperial court, it is better for the general to resolutely do it anyway, isn't it more cost-effective? ”

"Whip in," Wang Jixun nodded again and again after listening to Chengyuan's analysis, "But now there is only one last problem, that is, the tiger talisman sent by General Guo is not very useful now." ”

"Why?" Guo Rong sneered and retorted: "Didn't it be inspected and it was definitely not a fake?" When I see the soldiers, I see the main general himself, we all rely on the soldiers to eat, General Wang, what I said is good, right? ”

"That's good, what's this......" Wang Jixun suddenly looked back at the old man beside him, and the man hurriedly arched his hand and said:

"I'm afraid that the old man will have to explain this matter."

Guo Rong glanced at him and said, "Oh? Who is the honorable driver? ”

The old man arched his hand and sneered at Guo Rong:

"Hmph...... Under the surname Li, the name is Shou and Zhen! ”
