Chapter 425: Li Liang persuaded him to surrender

Li Fu and Li Liang glanced at each other, looked back at Wang San, smiled with a smile on their faces, and said happily: "Haha! Great, looking forward to the stars and the moon, I finally gave General Hua a look! After General Wang, I will go and gather the men and horses, and within half an hour, I will definitely go out of the city and officially surrender. ”

Wang San nodded, looked at Li Fu, and said, "Okay, General Li hurry up and prepare, I'll go back and inform General Hua." After speaking, he turned his horse's head and walked towards the camp of the Northern Expeditionary Army not far away.

Li Fu looked at Li Liang and said, "General Li, hurry up and assemble the people, within half an hour, all the horses must be assembled outside the east gate." ”

"Don't worry, general, I'll do it." Li Liang answered, turned around and walked in the direction of the camp in the city.

Half an hour later, Li Fu and Li Liang led 3,000 men and horses in the city and officials of the city to go out of the east gate to formally surrender to the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Hua'an accepted their surrender and left them in command of their original deployment, with little change except for the change in the army's flag.

After the surrender ceremony was completed, Hua An and Li Fu rode their horses into the city side by side, and sent 2,000 men and horses under Tie Niu to control the whole city.

After Hua'an completely took control of Zhan'an City, the top priority in front of Hua'an was to solve the Zhuge Qi Department that was ambushed in Luofengpo, otherwise it would be a time bomb that could destroy the back road of the Northern Expeditionary Army at any time, and even incite the people to rebel against the foreign Northern Expeditionary Army.

For this reason, Hua An led a group of generals to the west gate of the city, and climbed the gate tower of the west gate of the city with the generals.

Under the moonlight, the city is full of mountains as far as the eye can see. The intertwining of the peaks and valleys creates a wonderful picture, and although the light is a little dim at night, it is still refreshing to look at.

Hua An looked at Li Fu and Li Liang, and asked softly: "The two generals, Zhuge Qi of Luofengpo, how much do you know, why is he stubborn and unwilling to join my Great Jin?" ”

Li Fu heard this. First replied: "General Huihua." This Zhuge Qi just doesn't know what to do, he is tired and crooked, and he dares to go against the Great Jin Dynasty. ”

Li Liang clenched his fists and said carefully: "General Hua." This Zhuge Qi is a subordinate of the last general. The last general knows a lot about it. He is the only son in the family, and his ancestors were the generals of the Fei Army during the Shu Han Dynasty. Follow Zhuge Wuhou to fight in the south and the north, set up great military exploits, loyal to the Shu Han rivers and mountains, the battle of Jin to destroy Shu, the descendants of Zhuge Wuhou were all killed in battle, Zhuge Qi's ancestors changed their surname to Zhuge , and since then they have lived in seclusion in the south, refusing to be a Jin minister, until the first emperor of the puppet dynasty rebuilt the Han Dynasty and took it as his responsibility to pacify the world, Zhuge Qi's father led Zhuge Qi and more than 1,000 warriors in Nanzhong to take refuge in the Chengdu court, and the warriors of the department were also known as the flying army, Zhuge Qi's father was appointed as the camp owner, his father passed away last year, and Zhuge Qi held the position of the camp owner, Until today. ”

Seeing that Li Liang said so much information about Zhuge Qi in one breath, Hua An smiled indifferently at the corner of his mouth, patted Li Liang's shoulder, and praised: "It is worthy of being a boss, and he can feel the bottom of his subordinates so clearly, good, very good." ”

"General Hua has won the award, this is all within the responsibility of the last general." Li Liang hurriedly said politely.

Hua An nodded, looked in the direction of Luofengpo, and said to himself: "Loyal minister, really loyal minister!" It has been nearly a hundred years since the Shu Han regime perished, and there are still people who are nostalgic, and the big-eared thief knows it, so it's time to look at it. ”

Seeing that Hua An praised Zhuge Qi as a loyal minister, and Li Fu and other generals of the Shu army, they felt a little uncomfortable, but they were telling the truth, and they couldn't refute it, so they had to keep their heads down and not speak.

Wang San took a step forward, looked in the direction of Luofengpo, and said softly: "Big brother, now that our army has occupied Luocheng, we should immediately send a large number of men and horses to march to Luofengpo, and attack from the north and south, I think, Zhuge Qi must surrender obediently." ”

"Yes! General Hua, as long as Zhuge Qi learns that the city is lost, he will definitely surrender. Li Liang said softly.

Hua An nodded slightly, looked at Li Liang, and said softly: "General Li, Zhuge Qi is your subordinate, and it is most appropriate for you to be entrusted with the task of persuading you to surrender, are you willing to go to Luofengpo to persuade you to surrender for the sake of the Great Jin?" ”

Li Liang hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "The last general is willing to go." ”

"Okay, you go back to rest first, and set off early tomorrow morning to go to Luofengpo to persuade Zhuge Qi to surrender." Huaan Zhengse ordered.

"General Hua, the last general will go now." Li Liang asked to leave immediately.

Hua An smiled indifferently at the corner of his mouth and said, "Okay! It's dark, stay safe on the road. ”

"Yes, thank you for your concern." Li Liang clenched his fists and turned around to prepare.

Soon, the gate of the west gate of the city slowly opened, and Li Liang led several soldiers to leave the city gate in a hurry and ran in the direction of Luofengpo.

Seeing Li Liang riding his horse and leaving, Wang San looked at Hua'an and said softly: "Big brother, General Li's persuasion to surrender may not be effective, and our army must also be prepared!" ”

Hua An nodded and said, "Let the soldiers rest for the night, and early tomorrow morning, the pro-military camp will go to Luofengpo with me." ”

"Yes, big brother." Wang San responded.

After continuing to enjoy the scenery at the west gate of the city, Hua An and the generals behind him gradually dispersed and returned to their own residences.

#####

In the direction of Luofengpo, Zhuge Qi sent a small number of soldiers to reconnoiter in the north and south directions respectively, in order to find the enemy's weaknesses at any time and prepare to launch a fatal blow.

However, what disappointed him was that the enemy's defenses were very tight, and it could be said that there were no flaws to follow, which made Zhuge Qi anxious, you must know that the food and water sources in his hands were running out, and the delay in sending reinforcements from the direction of Ruocheng made him even more impatient.

Sometimes, he even wondered if there had been a change in the direction of Luocheng, and whether his top boss would collude with Li Fuxin and join the Jin army.

"Camp master, look, there is a group of men approaching, coming from the direction of Luocheng." A pro-soldier pointed to Li Liang, who was riding a horse, and said loudly.

"Let's go down and have a look." Zhuge Qi led more than a dozen personal soldiers to meet him at the bottom of Luofeng Slope.

Soon, Li Liang walked to Luofeng Slope and collided with Zhuge Qi, who came down from the mountainside.

Zhuge Qi fixed his eyes and saw that the person who came was his immediate boss Li Liang, and the few horsemen behind him were his own soldiers.

"It's strange that the road between Luocheng and Luofengpo has been blocked by the enemy, and the army master came on horseback, so why was it not blocked." Zhuge Qi was puzzled in his heart, and looked at Li Liang suspiciously.

Li Liang reined in the horse, looked at Zhuge Qi, and said, "Zhuge Qi, let your subordinates come down!" The city is already under the control of the Great Jin Kingdom, and submitting to the Great Jin is your only way out. ”

Zhuge Qi was shocked when he heard this, looked at Li Yi angrily, and reprimanded: "Military master, as a general of the Han Dynasty, why do you want to take refuge in the Jin Kingdom." ”

Li Liang sighed secretly, frowned and said: "Zhuge Qi, don't be obsessed, today's emperor is greedy for money and lustful, arrogant and stingy, greedy for money and lustful, murders and takes his wife, ignores state affairs, brutalizes ministers, abuses the criminal law, and does not care about the people, he is completely a lawless and faint king, loyal to such a person, don't you think it's stupid?" ”

"The emperor is the son of today, he has never owed you and me, you actually slandered the emperor like this, you are disloyal and unjust, and you are a minister in vain." Zhuge Qi reprimanded loudly.

"Hahaha! Zhuge Qi, you are loyal to Li Shi, but do you know how many ridiculous things Li Shi has done, how many innocent subordinates he has killed, even the general's uncle has not been spared, my uncle is loyal to the Han court! Such a monarch is not worthy of your allegiance at all. Li Liang retorted loudly and vented his inner anger.

Zhuge Qi disagreed, he looked at Li Liang, and said: "The king called the minister to die, the minister had to die, the father told the son to die, and the son had to die, this is an ancient truth, my Zhuge family has been loyal to the Han for generations, and it will never change." ”

Seeing that Zhuge Qi was still unwilling to surrender, Li Liang changed his mind, looked at the Wudang Flying Army behind Zhuge Qi, and said softly: "Zhuge Qi, you and your subordinates have been trapped on this barren mountain, and the north and south sides are the army of the Great Jin, you have no way to escape, even if you are willing to die for the country, but you have to think about the soldiers behind you!" They are all young, and it would be a shame to die here. ”

Seeing Li Liang blackmailing his subordinates, Zhuge Qi couldn't help but be furious, but this sentence happened to poke at Zhuge Qi's weakness, right now, he and his 1,000 Wudang Fei Army under his command did have no way to escape, if he did not agree to surrender, he was afraid that there would be a danger of annihilation of the whole army.

Seeing Zhuge Qi's brows frowning tightly, Li Liang was secretly proud in his heart, and continued to say: "Zhuge Qi, General Hua, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Great Jin Dynasty, has a good impression of you, and he especially praised your loyalty tonight, as long as you are willing to submit to the Great Jin, you will definitely have a bright future." ”

Zhuge Qi's mind was a little shaken, he frowned and thought for a long time before he looked up at Li Liang and said softly: "General Li, there is an ancestral training in the future, and I will never return to the Jin Kingdom in this life and this life, so it is impossible for me to surrender, but if the Jin army commander agrees, I can lead my subordinates back to Nanzhong, live in seclusion in the mountains and forests forever, and never come out again, I don't know if it is okay." ”

"This, this is only afraid ......" Li Liang obviously felt that it was unrealistic to let Hua An agree to let Zhuge Qi leave.

Seeing Li Liang's words flickering, Zhuge Qi said: "General Li, living in seclusion in the mountains and forests forever is the bottom line, if the generals of the Jin army do not agree, then send a large army to attack!" It's getting late, general, please go back! ”

"Zhuge Qi, you have to think about it! The Great Jin army is invincible, and your 1,000 men and horses can't resist it. Li Liang kindly reminded.

Zhuge Qi's face was as usual, he looked at Li Liang, and said with a straight face: "General Li, I have already thought about it very clearly, and I will never be a vassal to the Jin State." ”

"Alright! Take care and take your leave. Li Liang made a fist to Zhuge Qi, stepped on the war horse and walked towards the west gate of the city. (To be continued......)
