Chapter 218: Surrender

Ning Zejun entered the city and rewarded him for his meritorious deeds.

The people, officials, generals, and soldiers who participated in the rebellion were all rewarded, and many attributes could be directly promoted, or stay by his side, or be appointed to official positions in the city.

Huang Xia and his subordinates were brought to Ning Ze, and Han Guan said, "Ning Zhonglang, the guards in the city are all here!"

He had just received several chests of gold, and his loyalty had reached more than ninety points. After all, capturing Huang Xia and so many of his henchmen and generals, all of them together is a reward of more than 20,000 gold.

Ning Ze did what he said, more than 20,000 gold was a huge amount of money, and he could take it out without hesitation, Han Guan admired it very much.

"Ning Zhonglang!" Before Ning Ze could speak, the captured Huang Xia said, "As the saying goes, disaster doesn't hurt your family. Since we have been captured, we must kill or obey our fate. It's just an innocent family, please open up!"

"Please let me go!" the captured generals fell to their knees.

"General Han, what's going on?" Ning Ze turned his head and asked Han Guan.

"Yu Zhonglang, it is precisely because of the capture of the generals' wives and children that they can surrender!" replied Han Guan.

"Then trouble General Han to release all his family!"

"Ning Zhonglang," Han Guan replied with his fists clenched, "the last general feels that if the generals are willing to surrender, they can release the family." If they do not surrender, they can take all the old and young as slaves and send them to the market to sell them to replenish military funds. ”

Hearing this, the faces of Huang Xia and the captured generals changed drastically.

If the family is really going to be sold, the old man can only serve as a coolie or a slave, and the female dependents will be miserable, either becoming a military prostitute, or turning into a slave, and selling to a rich family at the mercy of the family, and the children in the family will also become commodities.

Generally speaking, except for the most heinous criminals, or enemies with deep blood hatred, in most cases, it will not harm the family. Unexpectedly, Han Guan suddenly put forward this opinion, which made the captured generals frightened.

"Ning Zhonglang, Princess Yuanxi is benevolent, and she must not harm her family!" Huang Xia shouted in panic.

"Qiu Ning Zhonglang opens the net!" all the captured generals knelt down and pleaded.

Ning Ze didn't have this kind of idea, and he was quite surprised to hear Han Guan say this. Facing Huang Xia and the others, he thought for a moment and said: "The courage and persistence of the generals who were able to hold on to Ning'an City and resist our army to the last moment are admirable. If you can join our army, you will not have such worries, and you will be able to be reused, and you will continue to work for great results! I think that all the generals, young and old, are already worried about their hearts at this moment, and at the same time they are trembling, and they look forward to returning home with you as soon as possible. Huang Taishou and all the generals, as long as they join our army, you will be able to retain your official posts, and everything will remain unchanged! There will even be other transfers, and the future is bright. It's up to you how you choose!"

"Ning Zhonglang, please allow me to discuss for a moment!" Huang Xia said.

"Yes!" Ning Ze was not in a hurry.

Huang Xia turned his head to his confidants and said, "This battle is all my fault, and your family members are implicated. I apologize to all of you!"

"This is not the fault of the government!" said the captured generals in unison.

"A choice needs to be made now, and the official will listen to your opinions!" Huang Xia sighed, "If everyone unanimously decides not to surrender, this official will die with everyone." If you feel that you should surrender, then the official will also put down his face. If you have any ideas, you will speak freely, and no matter what the outcome is, the official will respect it. ”

When Ning Ze saw this scene, he said in his heart that Huang Xia was still powerful. If he surrenders directly, it will be spread as if he is greedy for life and afraid of death, and his reputation is not good. But taking the responsibility for defeat first, as if putting life and death in the hands of his henchmen and generals, seems to be extremely atmospheric, even if he really surrenders, he will not be ashamed, indicating that he has responsibility. And the current situation is that most of Huang Xia's henchmen and generals are worried about their families and do not want their families to be sold into slavery, so they must choose to surrender.

Not only to win people's hearts, but also to save face, but also to protect their families, this kind of person is a talent!

Sure enough, the confidant generals respected and appreciated Huang Xia more, and through a vote, the majority decided to surrender.

So Huang Xia said: "Since it is your choice, this official respects this will!"

Huang Xia and his henchmen all surrendered, Ning Ze stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "It's really fortunate to have the likeness of all the generals!

"The last general will immediately release the generals!" Han Guan was very good at looking at the eyes and arranged it immediately.

Soon, all the generals' families were released, gathered together to hug and cry, and also relieved.

Ning Ze held a banquet at the official office to appease the generals and their families, and at the same time invited the leaders of the private soldiers who had made meritorious contributions to celebrate together.

Everyone has a reward, and everyone is happy.

During the banquet, Ning Ze said to Han Guan: "This battle depends on the general, at the next meeting, I will pay tribute to Princess Yuanxi, ask her to ask Emperor Hui for the title, and appoint the general to be the Taishou of Lingshan!

Han Guan was overjoyed when he heard this, although he occupied Lingshan County, he was always worried if his name was not right. It would be best if it could be officially recognized.

Although Lu Cong was hostile to Ning Ze and had just finished the battle, he couldn't take advantage of it, and now if he wants to deal with Lian Ze first, he must stabilize Ning Ze, and this small request can still be agreed.

Besides, Ning Ze asked Liu Yuanxiang to ask Emperor Hui for an official position, which seemed to be an acknowledgment of Emperor Hui's legitimacy in the eyes of outsiders, which was also beneficial to Emperor Hui.

Han Guan was promised and was in a good mood. However, he was still worried about Lingshan: "Ning Zhonglang took Ning'an County, what are you going to do next?"

Ning Ze smiled and said: "The main purpose of this trip is to end the civil strife in Liangzhou and assist the fourth prince Sun Jun to pacify the nine counties of Liangzhou. Prepare to fight Boping and fight with Sun Yi. ”

"Sun Yi is incompetent, how can he be Ning Zhonglang's opponent?" Han Guan said, "Pacifying Liangzhou is just a matter of searching for things for you. ”

Ning Ze smiled and nodded at him.

Han Guan continued: "Although I really want to fight side by side with Ning Zhonglang, the last general is still worried about Lingshan. When I was away, it would be quite dangerous for Chu Bai to send troops to sneak attack and cut off the back road. Therefore, the last general hopes to withdraw his troops tomorrow morning and return to Lingshan as soon as possible. ”

"Hmm!" Ning Ze nodded, "Lingshan is indeed important, it is the gateway to Xizhou. On the other day, our army will go to Xizhou, and the general will lead the way!"

"The end will wait for that day in Lingshan County!" Han Guan replied with a fist clenched.

"In this way, when you go back tomorrow, I will send a team of intelligence officers with you to make it easy to communicate. Ning Ze said, "If there is any important military information, contact in time!"

"The last will know!"

Ning Ze turned to Huang Xia: "Huang Taishou!"

Huang Xia hurriedly replied: "Yes!"

"Ning'an County is still in charge of you, everything is the same as before! But I want to arrange some intelligence agents here and set up an intelligence base. Also, I want to ask you how many people you can borrow! This attack on Boping requires excellent commanders!"

"The people that the lower officials rely on are the Xiang brothers. Huang Xia replied, "The eldest Xiang Rong, with superb riding skills and excellent martial arts, is a famous general in Ning'an; These two people are my confidants and have made great contributions. ”

"Hmm~" Ning Ze nodded when he heard this, he could see the attributes and knew that Huang Xia was not lying to himself. These two were the generals he wanted to borrow, and he immediately said, "In this case, I will borrow the Xiang brothers!

Xiang Rong and Xiang Yan glanced at each other and turned their eyes to Huang Xia, as if asking for his opinion.

Huang Xia said: "Now that we are under the command of Princess Yuanxi, since Ning Zhonglang asked, are you two willing to go with the army?"

The Xiang brothers looked at each other again, and then got up and clenched their fists: "I'm willing to follow Ning Zhonglang to attack Boping!"

"Okay!" Ning Ze picked up his wine glass, "This official doesn't know how to drink, so he will pay tribute to the two generals with water instead of wine!"

The Xiang brothers immediately raised their glasses and raised their heads to drink.

Everyone was drunk, Han Guan was a little drunk, got up and hugged his fist at Ning Ze and said, "Ning Zhonglang is proficient in spells, and today he broke the city with a flying boat." The last general is bold, I want to see Ning Zhonglang's spell, I don't know if I can show one or two?"

Before the words fell, the Xiang brothers beside Huang Xia immediately got up: "I also want to see Ning Zhonglang's spell!"

"Ning Zhonglang," Huang Xia also became curious, "I have long heard that your spells are strong, and you have successively defeated the Dongmen Dituo Spell and Zhu Shenxian. Today is also an eye-opener and I saw the flying boat. It would be nice if I could show some more spells so that I can feast my eyes on them!"

"Ning Zhonglang, let's feast our eyes!"

"Ning Zhonglang, I want to see some spells!"

......

The civil and military officials at the scene were all full of curiosity.

This is a good opportunity to gain loyalty, and of course Ning Ze will not waste it, so he got up and said, "Since everyone wants to see my spells, then it is easiest to perform a few tricks casually." ”

Everyone held their breath and couldn't wait to stare at Ning Ze.

Ning Ze walked to the middle of the hall, looked around at everyone, and stretched out his hands first: "Look carefully, there's nothing!"

Everyone stared at Ning Ze's hand, concentrating, not knowing what he was going to do.

Ning Ze raised his right hand and shouted, "Knife come!"

Pull out a Ringhead Knife directly from the Designer inventory.

Seeing him conjure a ring head knife out of thin air, the audience was shocked, and the civil and military officials rubbed their eyes, thinking that they were dazzled.

Ning Ze danced casually a few times and shouted softly: "Go!"

The ring-headed knife in his hand disappeared in an instant, as if it had never existed.

"It's really a spell!" Xiang Rong exclaimed, "Ning Zhonglang is mighty!"

There was an amazement below.

Ning Ze successively took out various weapons such as swords, spears, axes, and iron-tired bows, which made the civil and military officials exclaim again and again, and it was visible to the naked eye that after seeing Ning Ze's law, these officials were impressed by his strength, and their loyalty continued to increase.

"Ning Zhonglang, apart from weapons, what else can you change?" Huang Xia asked curiously.

Ning Ze didn't answer, and directly summoned Claw Huang Feidian.

A war horse appeared out of thin air, which made the civil and military officials even more stunned, and their jaws almost closed.

Ning Ze rode on the claw Huang Feidian, walked around the hall, collected it in the exclamation of everyone, and landed steadily.

Zhong Wenwu was even more convinced, knowing that Ning Ze was a "mana" existence, and his loyalty had greatly increased.
