cpa300_4;β Surrender?" Bu Chengyun looked at Gao Qiming with wide eyes and said: "Surrender so easily, how can the two of us mix in the military world now." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Gao Qiming shook his head with a wry smile and said: "At the beginning, I joined the army just to serve the country, but now that the country is in civil strife, there is a big fight between the three princes, and we soldiers can't defend against the enemy country, but kill each other here, which is not what I want at all." After this time, my heart is also cold, it is better to resign from the military and die in the mountains and forests. β
Hearing Gao Qiming's such decadent words, Bu Chengyun also had a hint of sympathy, and he also sighed and said: "When Brother Gao said this, I also feel shameless to gain a foothold in the army, it is better for our brothers to break away from the military and be a happy farmer." β
"Since Brother Bu is willing to accompany me, let's surrender. I think with Fang Ruitao's reputation, he will not embarrass our brother. Maybe these brothers can still enter the Shouyang Army and make a career, so I can rest assured. Gao Qiming said.
Bu Chengyun has been beaten to the point that he has lost his temper in the past few days, he nodded and said: "It's okay, I'll accompany my senior brother and go to the Shouyang Army camp to ask for guilt, if they don't allow death, it's better than living and suffering slowly here." β
The two had made up their minds, and the white flag was immediately raised at the head of the city, and the two army commanders walked out of the city gate together and walked towards the Shouyang military camp, followed by only a small officer waving the white flag behind them.
"A white flag was hung up in Shannan City, and two officers who claimed to be the commanders of the regiment asked to see them outside the camp. The herald hurriedly ran to Gou Jinguang to report the news.
Gou Jinguang, who was sitting on a chair and pretending to sleep, suddenly opened his eyes and said, "What? Shannan City surrendered?" He never thought that Shannan City would surrender like this, originally he also planned to ask for some reinforcements, suppress them with absolutely powerful firepower, and then send local divisions to climb the city directly, but he didn't expect that the other party would surrender before the letter asking for help was sent.
"Let them in. Gou Jinguang waved his hand.
"The division commander is careful of deception, if they break out, it will be difficult for us to stop them. A co-captain reminded.
Gou Jinguang shook his head and said, "No, with my strength, am I still afraid that they won't succeed." Just let them come in, and I'll hear what these two people have to say. β
Soon Gao Qiming and Bu Chengyun walked into the big tent with their heads down, and when they saw Gou Jinguang sitting in the middle, the two knew that this must be the main general, and they bowed down together: "The general of the defeated army will see my lord." β
"Two of you, please. Gou Jinguang waved his hand and said, "I don't know what to call the two of you." β
"Gao Qiming, commander of the Eighth Legion (Thirteenth Legion), see Your Excellency. The two reported their names and surnames.
"It's the two Legion Captains, please take a seat. Gou Jinguang gave the guards next to him a look, and several guards quickly moved two chairs.
"How can the general of the defeated army sit, we still stand. Gao Qiming looked at the seat, but he didn't know what Gou Jinguang meant.
Gou Jinguang said with a smile: "Everyone is a colleague of the empire, but because the three princes are willful, they raise swords, why do you have to see the outside like this." Today we will only talk about the appropriateness of our colleagues and ask nothing else, and it is okay for the two of you to sit down. β
Gao Qiming and Bu Chengyun glanced at each other, not knowing what the other party meant, but since the other party was so sincerely invited, they had no choice but to sit down.
"You two didn't fight badly. Gou Jinguang said with a smile.
Bu Chengyun's face turned red and said: "The two of us were too shallow before, thinking that the Shouyang Army was just a vain name, but only after the first battle did we know that the elite we were proud of were just cannon fodder." β
"You don't have to be so humble, in fact, we are only winning in tactics, and in terms of their strength, the regular army of the empire is not bad. Gou Jinguang said modestly.
"No, we know very well in our hearts that regardless of the quality and strength of the soldiers, as well as the weapons and equipment, the regular army of the empire has fallen behind in an all-round way. At the beginning, the Shouyang Army only sent three divisions, including two local divisions, and I thought it was humiliated, but now it seems that we are just bringing humiliation on ourselves. Gao Qiming shook his head again and again.
"Okay, you don't have to be polite, after the two of you surrendered, we are colleagues, it is better to join my Shouyang army, first raise troops with peace of mind, and when the country is in danger, how about eliminating harm for the country." Gou Jinguang asked the two of them.
"What?" the two raised their heads in surprise to look at Gou Jinguang, who said that the surrender was a surrender, which was obviously intended to recruit the two. The army commander, who was originally like ashes, was said by him, and a glimmer of hope was ignited in his heart. After serving in the army for many years, it would be a lie to say that they have no feelings for their subordinates, but now they hear that they seem to be able to lead troops and even join the world-famous Shouyang Army, which makes them a little overwhelmed.
This mood does not mean that the two are ungrateful, on the contrary, they are both patriotic and hot-blooded soldiers. At the beginning, they should have been loyal to the empire, and under the command of Marshal Gufeng, they were also willing. But now Long Zhanhuo ascended to the throne by coup d'Γ©tat, and only used his cronies to seize military power, while their peripheral generals just acted according to orders.
Marshal Gu Feng's departure originally made them have a trace of anger towards the dragon war, but now that the defeat was so courteous to Gou Jinguang, they saw the hope of serving the country again. Looking at the guards and officers surrounded by Gou Jinguang, Gao Qiming bowed slightly and said: "It's not impossible if we join the Shouyang Army, it's just that we want to ask if Lord Fang has the idea of winning the world before joining." β
This time it was Gou Jinguang's turn to be surprised, and he was stunned for a long time before he reacted to Gao Qiming's meaning. You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, not to mention that Fang Ruitao has never disclosed this situation. Looking at the focused gazes of the two, Gou Jinguang shook his head and said: "I don't know about this kind of thing, but I think there should be no such thing, the young master seems to have no intention of being on the throne." β
"This ...... Forgive me for not being able to follow, if Lord Fang has no intention of being in the world, whoever becomes the emperor in the future will only regard us as outliers, rather than being killed by them with political struggles at that time, it is better to take the initiative to give up now and go home to cultivate the fields. Gao Qiming's words made everyone fall into deep thought.
"Do you think that any new emperor who ascends the throne will be able to influence the Shouyang territory?" Gou Jinguang asked rhetorically.
"But as a lord, after all, the name is not right, if you wait until a certain prince dominates the country and gathers the strength of the whole country to force each other, can Lord Fang be able to fight the whole country with his own strength. Gao Qiming asked.
