For Cho Hyo-seok, he is not a person who likes to kill everything. But he knew that if he wanted the Li Dynasty to have long-term peace and stability in the future, he must let the people of the Li Dynasty see the goodwill he released. If you don't want to give face, then it is naturally a kill!

Cho Hyo-seok, who surrounded Thang Long City, did not want to open artillery and launch an attack. In addition to giving these people in the city, releasing a signal that the Song army is still reasonable. I don't want to blow up Thang Long, which may become the capital of Annam in the future.

As the imperial city of the Li Dynasty, the fortifications here are well built. This is also a rare defensive barrier for the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty who will be in charge here in the future. If it's broken, don't you have to spend money on overhauls!

There is only one battle left, and Cho Hyo-seok feels that it is almost over. If you can solve the matter of recovering Thang Long by peaceful means, then use less sword soldiers. For the child he is about to give birth to, accumulate some merit!

Thinking about the child who is about to give birth, Cho Hyo-seok actually wants to return to Ryukyu and stay by Mu Wanqing's side. It's just that the war here has not been settled, and as a commander, it is naturally difficult for him to leave. But in my heart, I still worry a little about their mother and son.

During his arrival in Qiongzhou, Zhao Xiaoxi returned to Xinnancheng once on the way. After staying with Mu Wanqing for three days, he hurriedly returned to Qiongzhou. As a prince, Zhao Xiaoxi is naturally competent.

can be a father-to-be and a husband, but he is incompetent. But these women still followed him without regrets. This made Zhao Xiaoxi very pleased, and felt that it was indeed his luck to have these red faces.

And what makes him even happier is that some time ago, Kim Yuna was already pregnant with a child. This means that there will be more and more of his bloodline. The only regret is that his seed doesn't seem to be very good.

Even in the Qiongzhou Palace, Wang Yuyan and Li Qinglu, who soak with him every day. There are also Zhong Ling's three daughters. I didn't see a little reaction, so that many times, when the third daughter saw Zhao Xiaoxi come back, she was full of resentment.

But for this kind of thing, Zhao Xiaoxi can't do anything. In his words, having a baby is something that couples need to work together. Sow seeds in the same way. But now only Mu Wanqing and Jin Yun'er are the only ones who see the blossoming and fruition.

Zhao Xiaoxi, who stayed in the camp outside the city, has been dealing with more official documents sent from the occupied areas in the past two days. With the increase in the number of occupied areas, many cutting-edge officials trained by Zhao Xiaoxi also began to accept and handle government affairs.

It's just that after these new officials take office, there are still all kinds of things that need to be consulted with him. So much so that Zhao Xiaoxi also felt that being a prince was tired like this. In the future, I will become an emperor, but I am afraid that I will not have to do any except for the folding every day.

In order to reduce his own burden, he transferred the governor of Leizhou to the Li Dynasty in advance and served as the temporary governor of Annan Road. When Thang Long City is captured, he will bow to the imperial court and put him in this position.

Zhu Datong, who received a summons from Zhao Xiaoxi, naturally knew that this was a test. It's also an opportunity. Although at the same time, it is possible to go to the governor of Annam, which is the capital. His official position is undoubtedly a big official.

With the arrival of Zhu Datong, some civil Zhao Xiaoxi pushed him to deal with it. After being in charge of Leizhou for so many years, Zhao Xiaoxi believes that Zhu Datong should manage these things. After all, Zhu Datong has his backer behind him!

Zhao Xiaoxi, who finally rested for two days, looked at the artillery team that started to get busy early in the morning. I think too. Time is running out before the sun is in the sky. If Li Gande refused to surrender, he could only shell Longcheng and kill him in the city and cut off his head.

Zhao Xiaoxi, who was eating breakfast in the camp, heard Zhao Dalai report that the east gate of Thang Long City had been opened. Zhao Wu sent someone to ask. When you want to send troops into the city. Zhao Xiaoxi shook his head and said, "No, if you say noon, then you must enter the city at noon." ”

For this kind of national crisis, Zhao Xiaoxi undoubtedly hates the people who surrendered and rebelled for the sake of selfish interests. But as the attacking party, he had to say that he welcomed this kind of traitor who could save him trouble.

It's just that he doesn't want to go to war, and he doesn't want the people of Thang Long City to hate him, the king of Qiongzhou, forever. I also pray for peace for the child who is about to be born. Cho Hyo-seok must do what he says and never take a step forward in the city at noon.

When the east gate was opened, the generals, officers and soldiers in the city, as well as the people, were undoubtedly startled. It can be learned that the Song army did not enter the city, but warned the reinforcements who came to the city not to hold the people who opened the city responsible.

If these people in Kaesong are hurt by them. When the siege came, all of them were killed. In this way, the east city gate was wide open, and the Song army, which was not far from the city gate, just refused to take a step in, which really puzzled the soldiers and civilians in the city.

However, there are still many people who know that this is where Song Jun's self-confidence lies. Regardless of whether the city gate was opened or not, if their emperor did not surrender, as soon as noon passed, the Song army would wave its troops to attack the city, and then they were afraid that the city would also be bloody.

When the Imperial City Forbidden Army, who was in charge of delivering the message, came to the city gate, he looked at the city gate that had been wide open, and naturally looked extremely shocked. It can be learned that Song Jun did not dare to take a step in advance even if he saw the city gate open, and he also understood the confidence of the other party.

But they quickly said, "Tell the whole city, and open all the gates!" The emperor ordered that Kaicheng surrender to the Song army! ”

With the order of the forbidden army issued, the gate of Shenglong City, which had been closed for several days, was opened one by one to the Song army outside the city. And the forbidden army of the Li Dynasty, who came outside the city, also conveyed the news of their emperor's willingness to surrender to the Song army outside the city.

In the face of such a report, Zhao Xiaoxi, who had eaten breakfast, said very calmly: "Since you have decided to surrender, let Li Qiande come to surrender outside the city!" Remember to tell him to bring the founding jade seal of the Li Dynasty.

This king plans to give the jade seal to the soon-to-be-born child as a toy! If it weren't for the sake of accumulating some virtue for the child, this king would have attacked Thang Long City a long time ago. Remember, it's noon, and it's too late! ”

The commander of the forbidden army of the Li Dynasty, who knelt in front of Zhao Xiaoxi, also felt angry and vomited blood when he heard that Zhao Xiaoxi was going to take the jade seal of the Li Dynasty and use it as a toy for his soon-to-be born child. But in the face of outdated warnings, he no longer dared to hesitate.

If it weren't for the old lady, Li Qiande made up his mind to surrender by killing himself. I'm afraid that as soon as noon comes, Li Qiande will try to fight hard with the Song army before surrendering, so as to ask for more conditions.

It's a pity that now that the city gate has been opened, the Song army still refuses to enter the city. This means that in their hearts, these Song soldiers actually wish they would not surrender. As long as they did not surrender and the cannon sounded, these Song officers and soldiers would have countless combat exploits.

If they surrendered, it would undoubtedly be a pity for these Song officers and soldiers who participated in the war. As a soldier, the Li Dynasty forbidden army naturally did not dare to slack off, and quickly passed the words back.

So much so that Li Qiande, who was still in the ancestral ancestral hall and pleaded guilty with the ancestors of the Li family, heard it directly. The loyal courtiers of the past had already prepared everything for him, just waiting for him to go out of the city and surrender.

This kind of betrayal of the minister made Li Qiande say with some tears in his eyes: "Father, take a look!" This is the courtiers who are loyal to our Li family, and they are so mean at this moment! ”

In the face of this kind of questioning, these ministers did not say anything, and insisted on urging him to get into the sedan chair quickly. even did not hesitate to take out several of his young children. Wait for them, and they will accompany Li Qiande out of the city to surrender.

For this kind of kidnapping-like surrender, Li Gande really had the urge to draw his sword and kill these ministers. But he knew better that at this time, no one regarded him as an emperor. If he doesn't want to die, he has to endure it.

Li Qiande, who walked out of the palace, looked at the people of the imperial city kneeling outside the city, and also felt a sense of death. But at this moment, many people shed tears and said: "The emperor has suffered!" The grass people will remember your kindness forever! ”

Similar to this kind of grateful voice, Li Gande suddenly felt that compared to these ordinary people he usually didn't pay much attention to. He is a minister who is raised by a lot of money, but it is even more hateful. No one felt that Li Qiande was suffering humiliation for them.

Looking at the minister who came to help him get into the sedan chair, Li Gande said in disgust: "Get out, I don't need a sedan chair, go over by myself!" I'm not like you, I don't even want the last dignity! What is the meaning of life? ”

After speaking, from the hands of a few flustered concubines, he hugged the youngest child. took the hands of these concubines and strode out of the city. And many people who were grateful to him followed him, hoping to intercede for him.

The Song army, who was outside the city, saw a large number of Li Dynasty people pouring out of the city gate, as well as the middle-aged man in a dragon robe who walked to the front. knew that the emperor of the Li Dynasty had come to surrender and immediately notified Zhao Xiaoxi to leave the camp.

When Zhao Xiaoxi rode a war horse and came to the city gate to see Li Qiande, still holding a child in his hand. He didn't expect that the emperor would go out of the city and surrender, and bring out the children and concubines.

At this moment, looking at Zhao Xiaoxi, Li Qiande, who was so young, really couldn't figure it out. When did the Song Dynasty come out of the prince who is now a demon. And he, who didn't pay attention to the other party at all, actually came to Qiongzhou to take office.

It's just that at this time, it's useless to think more. Li Qiande put the child in the hands of the concubine. From the hand of the eunuch who was following him, he took over the jade seal representing the imperial power, and knelt down under Zhao Xiaoxi's gaze with some difficulty.

Holding the jade seal, he said: "The king of the dead country, Li Qiande, begs to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty." Looking at the prince, for the sake of the innocent people, spare the lives of the people of the Li Dynasty! If there is any fault, I, Li Qiande, will bear it with all my might. ”

Hearing this, many of the people of the Li Dynasty who followed out of the city also knelt down and said, "Spare our emperor's life!" ”

At this time when there are soldiers and civilians kneeling down and praying, Zhao Xiaoxi also knows a little. If it weren't for his appearance, this Li Qiande would have become the master of Zhongxing in the Li Dynasty. Even after the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, he still stood here.

Even if the Yuan soldiers of later generations invaded the realm, the Li Dynasty made the Yuan Dynasty suffocated. It can be seen that his arrival has changed history. But he also knew that if he wanted to complete the revival of the Great Song Dynasty and the Han people, he had to do this, and the Li Dynasty must also be destroyed, which could not be changed!
