Chapter 470: Surrender
Hu Zongxian, surrounded by several generals, rushed back to Hangzhou, and when he saw the tall city wall from afar, Hu Zongxian actually had the urge to cry bitterly. He was cautious in his use of soldiers, and he always planned before acting, but he didn't expect that this time he almost caught Xu Hai's way. Raid on Hangzhou, unexpected, absolutely miraculous.
If Xu Hai succeeded, Hu Zongxian could only end gloomily, God blessed, with Tang Yi sitting in Hangzhou, he not only kept the city, but also fought a big victory. Hu Zongxian was both ashamed and ashamed, and when he arrived at the city of Hangzhou, the civil and military officials came out to greet him, and he searched the crowd, but he did not find Tang Yi.
Hu Zongxian chuckled in his heart, he couldn't take care of others, so he quickly ran to Liuliyuan, and without waiting for anyone to pass through, he went directly inside.
"Brother Xingzhi, Xingzhi, my brother has made amends to you!"
He shouted at the top of his voice, ran all the way to Tang Yi's yard, looked up, and suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, only to see Tang Yi just a pretty woman standing side by side, with a lot of jewelry and jade, gold and silver jewelry on the shelf in front of him, shining, the two of them were talking and laughing, choosing.
Good fellow, you kid is so happy!
"Brother Xing, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's really heroic, and the canopy is gone in smoke between talking and laughing!" He deliberately omitted the sentence "Xiao Qiao got married for the first time", and clearly said that he patronized the beauty and forgot about the big thing.
Tang Yizheng was so happy that when he turned around, he saw Hu Zongxian, and his face turned red.
"Brother Merlin, congratulations on your triumphant return, the younger brother was negligent for a moment and forgot to greet you."
"It's fine!" Hu Zongxian generously walked closer, grabbed Tang Yi's shoulder, and laughed: "Why do you have to do a happy event again, my brother is the same as last time, and then make a big red envelope." ”
Liuyingqiao's face was flushed, and she was busy Wanfu and said, "You are Hu Butang." I always hear Master mention your name, but I didn't expect that it is better to be famous than to meet. ”
What a clever mouth!
Hu Zongxian grabbed the beard on his chin and asked, "How can you see it?" ”
Liu Ying said with a smile: "Hu Butang commands thousands of troops and horses, strategizes, and is unparalleled in the world. can talk about the kung fu of four or two thousand catties, but it is tens of millions worse than the family teacher. ”
Hu Zongxian took a breath, looked at Tang Yi with a strange expression, pointed at Liuying, and then pointed at him.
"Okay, this girl is your disciple?"
"Can't you?" Tang Yi said with a smile: "Brother Merlin, let me introduce you, this is everyone Liuying, the master of Liuli Garden." ”
"Oh!"
Hu Zongxian woke up like a dream. It's so boring, and I dare to make a mistake.
"Don't blame everyone, I'll apologize for the wine later."
Lu Ying smiled faintly, "Hu Butang, Lu Ying is just an insignificant woman, where can she make the commander of the southeast apologize." However, you should apologize to my master. ”
"Why is that?" Hu Zongxian said with a smile.
"You misunderstood Master." Liuying said, all the time in front of the rouge gouache. Jewels and jade, said with a smile: "Hu Butang." If these things are used well, they are worth your thousands of troops. ”
Hu Zongxian's face sank and he shook his head, "Liuying, everyone, it's just some things for women, what's the big deal?" ”
"Hahaha. Hu Butang inevitably underestimated women, the king of Shang favored Daji, ruined the foundation of the Shang Dynasty, and the king of Zhou You played the princes with fire, just for the beauty to smile. King Goujian of Yue offered the beautiful Xi Shi and captured the country of Wu. Since ancient times, heroes have been short of breath and children have long affections, are there still few such examples? ”
"It's not small!" Hu Zongxian scratched his head, "I still don't understand?" ”
Tang Yi said with a smile: "Brother Merlin, here's the thing, Xu Hai robbed a Jiangnan singer named Wang Cuiqiao a few years ago, and even liked it, it was simply a pearl with long legs, a living baby." These things were intended to be given to Wang Cuiqiao, so that she could blow the wind on her pillow and encourage Xu Hai to surrender. ”
"Yo!"
Hu Zongxian's eyes lit up suddenly, he didn't expect Tang Yi to still remember it, he couldn't help patting Tang Yi's shoulder with emotion, and his eyes were all gone.
"It's really a believer, I didn't spend that silver in vain!"
Tang Yi and Hu Zongxian got together and immediately discussed ways to recruit Xu Hai.
After this battle, Xu Hai's strength suffered a great loss, and he successfully separated the relationship between him and Wang Zhi, and now Xu Hai's situation is very difficult, and it can be said that he is in danger of collapse at any time.
If Wang Cuiqiao can be moved and let her continue to work harder, the possibility of Xu Hai's surrender will be greatly increased.
However, if you want to tame Xu Hai, it is not enough to rely on good words to persuade him, but also to make him feel a real threat. Tang Yi suggested that the captive Xin Wulang be released immediately, and in order to let them eat dogs, he was given a title, called General Zhengyi!
Hu Zongxian didn't know why, but when he brought Xin Wulang and told him about this decision, Xin Wulang trembled excitedly, knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and the skin of his head was knocked off, and he was drenched in blood, like crazy.
Tang Yi explained to Hu Zongxian that in order to deal with the Ezo people, the Wa State set up the post of General Zhengyi, and later the general's power swelled and gradually became the leader of the samurai group, and then controlled the supreme power of the Wa State, and the Wa King was elevated.
Now he has given Shingoro the Great General Zhengyi, which is tantamount to recognizing his status as the ruler of the Wa Kingdom.
Although it's just a name, it depends on who gave it, the general of the Ming Dynasty, the king of the Ming Dynasty also wants to be canonized and recognized by the Ming court, from this point of view, he, the general, is almost on an equal footing with the king of the king, Xin Wulang is just a prisoner, and he suddenly became a man, how can he not be excited and crazy.
Tang Yi said with a smile: "Xin Wulang, the imperial court is very worried when I hear that there is a civil strife in the Japanese country, the princes are constantly strife, the people of Li are devastated, and a large number of samurai are scattered at sea, causing disasters to the surrounding areas. In order to relieve the besieged and suffering people of the Wa Kingdom, I have given you the title of General of the Imperial Army, funded you to recruit troops and horses, recruited the samurai who were stranded at sea, returned to the Wa Kingdom, established a new shogunate, commanded the Japanese Kingdom, and restored peace in the world. ”
Tang Yi's expression was like telling Xin Wulang that the peace of the world depends on you. Hu Zongxian saw it in his eyes and almost laughed.
What about the general of Zhengyi, there is not even a shadow, so will the imperial court help the heinous Japanese invaders to restore the country? Tang Yi is talking nonsense at all, but there are fools who believe it.
Xin Wulang still didn't know what was going on in the Ming Dynasty, he subconsciously compared the situation of the Wa State to the Ming Dynasty, the Wa Shogunate General had the final say, and Hu Zongxian, the southeastern governor, was equivalent to the shogunate, and he agreed to canonize it, and the imperial court would definitely agree.
Moreover, the Japanese people were born to worship the strong, and this time they were defeated by Hu Zongxian, so they regarded him as a god. If you don't kill him, you're even more grateful, let alone let him fight back, even if he tells others that he should walk with two hands and eat with his feet, he will most likely believe it.
Tang Yi casually found someone to engrave a gold seal for Xin Wulang, and gave him an official document from the Governor's Palace, asking him to be ordered to surrender to the righteous soldiers.
The banner was quickly beaten out, not to mention, Xin Wulang did have some appeal among the Japanese invaders, especially the real Japanese, and in less than half a month, two or three hundred people surrendered, plus the previous prisoners, gathered 1,500 people, divided into three battalions, and trained every day.
The slogan was shouted loudly: Capture Xu Hai first, and then catch Wang Zhi!
Of course, Tang Yi would not expect Xin Wulang to pacify the Japanese invaders, what he needed was to create an atmosphere of razing and destroying them, so that Xu Hai was really afraid.
Sure enough, when the news reached the nest, Xu Hai was having dinner with Wang Cuiqiao, and as soon as he heard that Xin Wulang had returned to obedience and became the vanguard of the government, the rice bowl in his hand fell to the ground, shattered, and the rice fell all over his beard and chest, and his whole person was not good.
Xin Goro is different from the official army, he is familiar with the situation at sea, and he knows many people, if he is really allowed to act as a pioneer, maybe he will really be finished.
Xu Hai sat stunned like a wood carved clay sculpture, and after three minutes, he was startled by the sound of sobbing.
"Cuiqiao!" Xu Hai was at a loss and wanted to coax his wife, but he didn't know what to say.
Wang Cuiqiao raised his head, his face full of tears, "General, aren't you awake yet?" ”
A sentence poked Xu Hai's heart, and he sighed.
"It's not that I don't want to surrender, it's just that I've done too much evil over the years, I'm afraid!"
Wang Cuiqiao lowered his head, looked at the bulging lower abdomen, and also sighed: "The slave family is also afraid, I am afraid that the child will become a thief as soon as he is born, I am afraid that the child will have no father before he grows up, I am afraid that the general will leave us and leave......"
Listening to his wife's crying, Xu Hai's heart was broken, and he scratched his heart with a hundred claws, not to mention how uncomfortable it was. After being silent for a long time, he said, "Cui Qiao, I'll go and discuss it with Xu Hong." ”
Xu Hai was also unlucky, Xu Hong had been frightened by Tang Yi, where was there a good idea, the brothers sat opposite each other, Xu Hai said first: "Is it true that you said that Xin Wulang surrendered?" ”
"Really, absolutely really!"
Xu Hong said firmly: "Big brother, Lord Tang told me that he wants to support the warriors of the Japanese Kingdom, return to the Japanese Kingdom, and provoke civil strife in the Japanese Kingdom, so as to avenge their sins in attacking the Ming Dynasty." ”
Xu Hai was silent for a long time, and sighed: "It's really calculating, Xin Wulang is a sharp knife, in the hands of the government, we have another big enemy!" ”
"Again? Brother, are you worried about Wang Zhi? ”
"That's right, I wrote a letter to the old shipowner a few days ago, asking him why he attacked us, and in his reply he scolded us for our incompetence, and asked us to take out 100,000 taels of silver to compensate him for the loss of the expedition." The more Xu Hai thought about it, the more angry he became, Wang Zhi simply took advantage of the fire to rob and fall into the well!
Guanjun, Xin Wulang, Wang Zhi, the three cannons placed in front of the door, which one of them will die!
No matter how you look at it, there is a dead end in front of him, the more Xu Hai thinks about it, the more afraid he becomes, and in the end, his eyes are red.
"Brother, it was my brother who hurt you!"
"Brother, don't say that, we have a big bowl of wine and a big bite of meat over the years, it's refreshing enough, what if we die!"
Xu Hai shook his head, "My death is a trivial matter, the key is that our Xu family can't be left behind, if there is really such a day, you protect your sister-in-law and run away!" ”
This is Tuogu!
Xu Hong was frightened, and hurriedly said: "Brother, maybe not, Lord Tang said that between Wang Zhi and us, he wants to surrender us, or we will surrender, right?" After Xu Hong finished speaking, he hurriedly buried his head between his legs, ready to be beaten.
How do you know that Xu Hai didn't make a move, but sighed: "I'm afraid that I won't surrender, but I will become Song Gongming!" (To be continued.) )
