Xu Liang didn't expect that Gao Zilin would be surrounded by the officers and regiments, and he would actually think of the trick of surrendering.

Nearly 40,000 officers and soldiers will be besieged in the middle of the mountain, the less than 300 civilian troops will be limited to the top of the mountain, the range of activities in a radius is less than 100 meters, Li Zicheng was under the eyes of tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the official army, with the tip of a spear to pick up a piece of white cloth torn off the pants of a good man, all the way on his shoulders, from the top of the mountain with his head held high, carefully walked down the mountainside, and came to Xu Liang.

Xu Liang, Wan Wenshan, Luo Rucai, Sima Qiudao and other generals gathered together and looked at the messenger of the people's army who delivered the surrender with great interest.

"Who's coming?" Xu Liang squinted his eyes and shouted angrily.

With Xu Liang's shout, the two rows of Tsing Yi guards screamed, and the sound of neatly drawing knives sounded, only to feel a burst of cold light and murderous aura.

Li Zicheng trembled for a while, although he told himself thousands of times in his heart that he had to hold on, he had to hold on! However, from the top of the mountain to the mountainside, the distance was less than two miles, and Li Zicheng's back was already dripping with cold sweat, and his heart was beating like a drum, and the sound was non-stop.

Li Zicheng's body shook, his knees were sore, and he almost fell to his knees in fright.

This situation caused the generals of the Liang army to laugh.

Forced to stabilize his body, Li Zicheng took a few deep breaths, used the gun with a white cloth on his shoulder as a crutch, leaned on the ground, supported most of the weight of his body, raised his eyes to look at several generals in the Liang army, and finally his eyes stayed on Xu Liang, who was wearing a crimson official robe.

Although Li Zicheng had already known that Xu Liang, the prefect of Pingliang, was a young man just over twenty, he really saw Xu Liang himself. Li Zicheng was still shocked by Xu Liang's appearance.

Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, graceful and suave. Pan An Song Yu, that's just it!

"Gao Zilin, the general of the defeated army. May you return to the court! Li Zicheng solemnly arched his hand, took out the surrender letter written by Gao Zilin from his arms, held it high above his head, and presented it to Xu Liang.

Xu Liang looked at this Gao Zilin's envoy coldly.

"Bold! Since he admits to being the general of the defeated army, why don't he kneel when he meets Lord Xu? There was no need for Xu Liang to speak, and Luo Rucai, the pioneer of the Liang army, shouted with great eyesight.

Li Zicheng said: "This general's words are wrong, before he surrendered as the messenger of General Gao. Seeing Lord Xu in person is an equal position, and there is no need to kneel down. ”

Cut! When Xu Liang heard this, he couldn't help but look at Li Zicheng, and sneered: "My court army is besieged on all sides, Gao Zilin is at the end of his rope, since he wants to surrender to the court, but he holds his own identity, it seems that Gao Zilin's intention to surrender to the court is not sincere." Why, then, did the messenger come? ”

said. Xu Liang waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "In this case, if Gao Zilin doesn't descend, you can go back to the top of the mountain and inform Gao Zilin and Gao Yingxiang." And wash your necks, and wait for the officer to lead a large army to take their heads! ”

"Haha, do you hear that?" Luo Rucai laughed wantonly. "Get out of here, we don't have to see Gao Zilin's surrender!"

Li Zicheng was angry in his heart. Listening to the wanton ridicule of the generals of the Liang army, his face was as red as blood. He gritted his teeth loudly, and finally slowly knelt down on the grass on his knees, bowed to Xu Liang, and said in a deep voice: "The defeated Gao Zilin begged the court and the heavenly army to show mercy and accept our sincere surrender!" This is General Gao's letter, please see Lord Xu of Pingliang Governor's Mansion. ”

"That's what it sounds like." Luo Rucai chuckled again.

Xu Liang stared at Li Zicheng for a long time, judging from Li Zicheng's ability to adjust his emotions in such a short period of time and pay a serious salute, the envoy of Gao Zilin in front of him was really a little timid.

Xu Liang walked up to Li Zicheng and stood still, staring at Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng heard the sound of footsteps, and also raised his head, and looked at Xu Liang.

"Gao Zilin's sincere surrender?" Xu Liang asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, the book is here, please allow your Excellency to take a look."

Xu Liang looked at him, did not stretch out his hand to take the intention of surrendering, paused, Xu Liang said indifferently: "No need, this official refuses to take prisoners, nor does he accept surrender!" ”

Li Zicheng was stunned and looked at Xu Liang in shock, "The battle of the Imperial Heavenly Army is nothing more than the conquest of the people's army, now that Gao Zilin has surrendered and surrendered, why doesn't Lord Xu accept surrender?" It must be known that there are still 300 soldiers of the People's Army on the mountain, and the leaders such as Gao Zilin and Gao Yingxiang are strong in martial arts. ”

Xu Liang looked at Li Zicheng and said coldly: "You are right, if Gao Zilin is ruthless, our army will suffer heavy casualties." But these officials, Gao Zilin, and Gao Yingxiang are not ordinary officers and soldiers and bandits, but a great enmity of life and death, and they will never die! ”

"Heaven has the virtue of a good life, why should Lord Xu create more sins?" Li Zicheng said urgently.

Xu Liang said coldly: "You have too many words, come here, drag them out to beat thirty military sticks, and then put them back on the top of the mountain." ”

The two Tsing Yi guards responded loudly, stepped forward and escorted Li Zicheng to leave one left and one right.

Li Zicheng hurriedly shouted: "The two armies are fighting, don't kill them!" ”

Xu Liang flicked his sleeves and shouted, "Fight!" ”

The sticks whirred, hitting Li Zicheng with a dull sound, and when the thirty military sticks went down, Li Zicheng's skin was open and his flesh was open, and he was drenched in blood, and even the screams were extremely weak.

The tortured Tsing Yi Wei was very attentive, not only can Li Zicheng enjoy the thirty military sticks solidly, but also will not beat Li Zicheng to death, at least after the military stick is beaten, Li Zicheng can still hold the spear in both hands, and rush back to the top of the mountain to report the news, although the movement is very slow, every step he takes, Li Zicheng will snort miserably.

Li Zicheng finally passed through the encirclement of the official army and disappeared on the top of the mountain.

Luo Rucai looked at the direction in which Li Zicheng disappeared and asked Xu Liangdao: "My lord, do we really not accept Gao Zilin's surrender?" Do you want to suppress Gao Zilin to the end? ”

Xu Liang nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Pass the order, all battalions will reorganize the army, and after half an hour, the whole army will attack the mountain." ”

"Yes!" The generals promised.

Xu Liang looked at the direction of the top of the mountain with a deep expression. Gao Zilin is different from ordinary thieves and bandits. Because of his tossing, Xu Liang killed Xing Zhongshan, Long Feng and other two generals, and even his beloved woman, Dai Yingying, also died tragically in Hanzhong Mansion. The hatred between Xu Liang and Gao Zilin is not shared.

Anyone can surrender. Gao Zilin can't do it, because Xu Liang doesn't approve it.

Today. No one can stop Xu Liang from avenging this blood vengeance.

Half an hour later, the officers and troops surrounding the mountain slowly advanced to the top of the mountain. Heavy footsteps resounded over the hill, approaching, approaching.

The people's army on the mountain was completely desperate, and as far as the eye could see, there were all black and oppressive officers and soldiers in all directions, with swords and guns like a forest, and the cold light was shining. Many soldiers of the People's Army threw away their weapons and sat on the ground crying loudly, facing such a desperate situation. The fear of death has long filled the minds of every soldier of the People's Army.

"Get up, get up!" Gao Zilin, Gao Yingxiang, Wang Zuogui and a few other generals of the People's Army angrily punched and kicked the soldiers of the People's Army who were sitting on the ground, crying in despair.

Li Zicheng, who had returned from the report, was lying under a large pine tree, staring blankly at the group of Nationalist Army generals urging the desperate Nationalist soldiers to take up arms again and fight again. He slowly closed his eyes and sighed silently, Li Zicheng had no special complaints about the upcoming fate. It's just a little regrettable that I have empty ambitions, but in the end I have all failed and achieved nothing.

The officers and troops were still approaching. The spears in the front row were flattened and in a sprinting position, and the archers in the back row began to draw their bows. There was a creaking bowstring, and the shadow of death was like a dark cloud. In an instant, there were less than 300 soldiers of the People's Army on the top of the mountain.

Fear, crying. Collapse, despair, all kinds of negative emotions spread among the officers and soldiers of the people's army, and with the people's army's bow and arrows, this emotion became more intense, and many people couldn't even stand on their feet, and their crotch was wet and wet, and there was a smell of feces and urine......

Gao Zilin, Gao Yingxiang and others had already given up urging their officers and soldiers of the people's army, and they stood with a few loyal soldiers, clenched the weapons in their hands, and stared closely at the officers and soldiers who were gradually approaching.

Thump! A soldier of the People's Army threw away his spear, knelt on the ground in front of the army of officials, and kowtowed like pounding garlic: "Spare your life!" I surrendered and will never rebel again! ”

Plop, plop! With the first one as an example, soon there was a second, and the third sounded, and then there was a plopping sound, and more than 300 people's troops on the top of the mountain fell to their knees in a blink of an eye, facing the officers and soldiers, kowtowing and crying.

On the top of the mountain, there were less than 100 soldiers of the People's Army standing on the edge of Gao Zilin with weapons.

These are all old men who followed Gao Zilin, Gao Yingxiang and others to rebel all the way, and they can be said to be loyal to Gao Zilin.

Gao Zilin sighed secretly, the situation is like this, being alive is stronger than anything else, and the soldiers of the People's Army have such a move, Gao Zilin is not surprised at all.

Suddenly, Gao Zilin's side followed closely and there was a thud, and Wang Zuogui, the leader of the people's army, threw his blade with one hand and knelt down firmly.

As Wang Zuogui knelt like this, more than a dozen of Wang Zuogui's personal soldiers standing beside Wang Zuogui threw their weapons faster than anyone else.

Gao Zilin sighed again, glanced at Gao Yingxiang, and headed in the direction of the official army.

What is shocking is that in the face of the behavior of the people's army on the top of the mountain throwing a lot of weapons and kneeling to surrender, there was no indication among the officers and soldiers, the pikemen were still approaching, and the archers were still tightening their bowstrings.

Gao Zilin's pupils shrank, and the secret path was not good.

"Ready, fire!" As if to confirm Gao Zilin's conjecture, among the officers and soldiers, a general shouted loudly.

Airplanes......

Arrows rained down and fell into the crowd of the people's army, shooting into the soldiers of the people's army who were still kowtowing and crying, making a tooth-aching sound.

Shouting, snorting, cursing, and the reacting civilian army struggled to fight back to death, picked up the weapons around them, and rushed forward against the officers and soldiers.

"Kill!" The officers and soldiers let out an earth-shattering roar, and after a round of bows and arrows, the pikemen in the front row rushed over and fiercely plunged into the crowd of people's troops.

There was no suspense about the outcome of the battle, and the 300 civilian soldiers were killed and wounded, and even if some were seriously wounded, the civilian soldiers who still had a breath were pierced by the guns of the officers and soldiers.

Xu Liang did not want to be taken prisoner, and the officers and soldiers carried it out thoroughly. On the top of the mountain, the corpses of the civilian army were piled up into a small mountain.

However, there are still captives. Gao Zilin, the leader of the people's army, Gao Yingxiang and Wang Zuogui, although they were seriously injured, died and were still prisoners of the official army, in addition, there is Li Zicheng who has been lying under the big pine tree, Li Zicheng is not the leader of the people's army, he can live, thanks to his uncle Gao Yingxiang, because in the end, Gao Yingxiang returned to the big pine tree and protected Li Zicheng.

The person who ordered these people to be captured alive was He Huchen, the general soldier of Yansui. Although Xu Liang had a clear order not to accept surrender or accept prisoners, although He Zongbing obeyed Xu Liang's orders most of the time, he was not the same as Wan Wenshan, Luo Rucai, Sima Qiudao, these generals in the Liang army.

Gao Zilin, Gao Yingxiang, and Wang Zuogui's heads are too important, and capturing these people alive and putting them in the court is an irreplaceable feat. This kind of opportunity, General He has rarely encountered a few times in his life as an official, and he is really sorry for himself if he doesn't grasp it well.

Although in order to capture Gao Zilin alive, He Zongbing lost more than 200 soldiers, but seeing Gao Zilin tied up in front of him, He Huchen felt that it was worth it, it was worth it!

The news of capturing Gao Zilin alive was reported to Xu Liang, Xu Liang was shocked for a while, and then he was angry! Before attacking the mountain, Xu Liang solemnly confessed in the military order that as long as Gao Zilin was dead, he would not want Gao Zilin to live, even if he only had the breath out but not the air when he was carried in front of him.

Regarding the demonic existence of Gao Zilin, Xu Liang insisted that only when Gao Zilin was completely dead would he be safe.

Hundreds of Tsing Yi guards opened the way, Xu Liang angrily rushed into He Huchen's camp, ignoring the many generals and captains around He Zongbing, Xu Liang pointed at He Zongbing's nose and scolded: "He Huchen, what the hell is going on with you!" If you don't cut Gao Zilin on the spot, where are you going to escort him? Submit it to the Ministry of War to ask for merit and reward! ”

In front of everyone's eyes, He Huchen's face was embarrassed, and he arched his hand to Xu Liang and pleaded guilty: "Lord Xu is angry, General Ben feels that the living Gao Zilin is far more valuable than the dead Gao Zilin." As he spoke, he pointed to Gao Zilin, Gao Yingxiang, Wang Zuogui, and Li Zicheng, who were closely guarded by the officers and soldiers next to him, and said: "My lord, please see, these people have been captured at the moment, whether they are dead or alive, it is just a matter of our words, and there is no possibility of any threat!" ”

Xu Liang followed He Huchen's gesture, turned his head and saw Gao Zilin, stared at Gao Zilin with resentful eyes, and said in a deep voice: "This official repeats, Gao Zilin must die!" Someone, kill him! ”

With Xu Liang's words, a Tsing Yi guard immediately pulled out a knife and stepped forward, ready to slash Gao Zilin with a knife.

General He hurriedly stopped in front of Tsing Yiwei, frowned and said to Xu Liang: "Lord Xu, Gao Zilin is already meat on the knife board, Lord Xu wants to kill him and hate him, after the general is sent to the court, Lord Xu can kill him with his own hands." Why rush at this time? ”

Xu Liang glared at He Huchen dissatisfied, suppressed his anger and said: "General He wants to take Gao Zilin to receive merit and ask for rewards, and he can take Gao Zilin's head." ”

General He smiled reluctantly, and explained to Xu Liang: "Lord Xu, the living Gao Zilin is far more meritorious than the dead Gao Zilin......

"You!" Xu Liang was extremely angry and pointed at He Huchen, his heart was extremely annoyed.

"Hehe, haha!" Suddenly, Xu Liang heard Gao Zilin let out a burst of hearty laughter.

Xu Liang looked at Gao Zilin and said angrily, "What are you laughing at?!" ”

Gao Zilin said a few more hehes, stretched out the tip of his crimson tongue and licked his chapped lips, smiled at Xu Liang Senran, and asked, "How is Lord Xu doing lately?" Do you often feel soreness and weakness in your limbs? Still want to doze off? (To be continued......)
