The generals' eyes looked forward to it, Li Quanchang let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile.

"Thank you, brothers, for looking up to me. When the eldest brother's incompetence made the brothers' life and death uncertain. Big brother, I don't want you to die in this Qingzhou City, I don't want to! ”

"Enfu, what do you say, the brothers will listen to you!"

The generals Zheng Yande and Liu Weicheng looked at each other, and Zheng Yande immediately said loudly.

"Listen to me? What do I have to make my brothers prosperous and rich? ”

Li Quan smiled bitterly, he stood up suddenly, walked over quickly, took off the long sword from the wall, pulled out the sword, and shouted in his mouth, he was about to kill himself.

"My mother and my eldest brother were both killed by the Tatar army, and I am inseparable from the Tatars! Brothers, let me kill myself. With my head, you too can ask for a way out for the brothers in the city! ”

The sadness is real, but the sword is more fancy than practical, and when it is pulled the neck, it only scratches the skin, and does not cut the wound.

"Enfu, don't!"

"Enfu, you can't do this! Brothers, they're counting on you! ”

All the generals were shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug Li Quan and snatched the sword he was clutching in his hand.

The reason why the Mongol army surrounded Qingzhou City was that they did not want to increase casualties, and secondly, they were rushing for Li Quan, the leader of the Shandong Righteous Army, who was full of appeal. If Li Quan is haunted, the value of these people will be greatly reduced.

"! Why are you stopping me? Give me the sword and let me kill myself!" ”

Li Quan shouted angrily and wanted to take back the sword, but he was held by the generals.

"Enfu, don't kill yourself! The six or seven thousand brothers in the city are all up to you! ”

Tian Shirong knelt on the ground, hugged Li Quan's arm, and persuaded hard.

"Enfu, for the sake of Chuzhou's sister-in-law and a few nephews, you can't be confused!"

Zheng Yande also hugged Li Quan and loudly dissuaded him.

The sword was thrown to the ground with a "bang", and several generals hugged Li Quan and sat on the chair.

"Enfu, good birds choose trees to perch, and gentlemen do not stand under dangerous walls. Let's go down! You have to think about the six or seven thousand brothers in the city! ”

The general Liu Weicheng knelt on the ground and clenched his fists and persuaded him.

"Brother Liu, brothers, you are forcing me to surrender to Tatar and recognize the thief as my father!"

Li Quan looked at the generals, his face was shocked and bitter, and he shook his head vigorously.

"No! The Tatars and I have a blood feud, and if I do this, won't I make the world laugh? I ......"

Li Quan said hesitantly, as if he had regained some composure.

"Enfu, for the sake of the life and death of the six or seven thousand brothers in the city, you can bear the humiliation and burden, and surrender!"

Zheng Yande also knelt down, clenched his fists and kowtowed, and "Bangbang" sounded.

"Enfu, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, and people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. You're going to come down! ”

The subordinate general Liu Weicheng knelt down and was impassioned.

"Tian Shirong, what do you think we should do?"

Li Quan looked at Tian Shirong, a fierce general who was stunned and standing at his side, and seemed to regain his composure in an instant.

"Enfu, I, Tian Shirong, are the only ones who look forward to you! Go to the soup and fight the fire, and never give up! ”

Tian Shirong knelt on one knee and said with his fists clenched, impassioned.

All the generals in the hall are about to surrender, if he insists on it, it will cut off everyone's back road, and I am afraid that he will not leave the hall alive.

Looking at Li Quan's meaning, it seems that he is also going to fall. Since the Lord is about to descend, what is there for him, a general, to hold onto.

"Good brother! For the sake of the brothers in the city, for the glory and wealth of all the soldiers, the only way to surrender to Tatar Kaesong. Someday, when the opportunity is ripe, I will take the brothers against him! ”

Li Quan's eyes suddenly became cold, and he made a decision categorically.

"Obey the military orders of the Enfu!"

All the generals fell to their knees together, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Enfu, Qingzhou has descended Tatar, and it's best not to leak things out. Otherwise, once it reaches the Song Realm, Entang's side, life will not be easy. ”

Zheng Yande said loudly, his brows furrowed.

"Good brother, even if we want to return to the Tatars quietly, will they be willing? The reason why they kept us was not that the rebel army in Shandong would submit to the rule of the Great Mongolian State. ”

Li Quan, who was calm and composed, shook his head, his face full of helplessness.

If it weren't for him, the leader of the Shandong Righteous Army, wouldn't the Mongolian army be so polite and besiege but not attack?

As for the rest of Chuzhou, they had to send someone to inform them earlier, hoping that they would not mess with themselves.

"Bring me the sword. I want to keep it, make a comeback, lead my brothers to make contributions, and fight for a better future! ”

Li Quan pointed to the sword on the ground, and his fighting spirit was restored.

The big husband can bend and stretch, and he must not be without power. Once you lose power, you can only be slaughtered by others.

Li Quan, a hero, naturally would not make such a choice.

In the early morning of the next day, the four gates of Qingzhou City, which had been confined for several months, were opened, and outside the east city gate, more than ten shirtless and thorn generals knelt on the ground, and behind them were full of loyal and righteous soldiers.

Outside the moat, countless Mongolian troops rode all over the mountains, waiting for the surrender of the defenders of Qingzhou.

"General, raise tigers for trouble. Li Quanshi came to vote poorly, and he was not convinced. Do you want to take the opportunity to kill these capricious bandits once and for all? ”

Chen Shike, a Han strategist, looked at the Qingzhou army kneeling outside the city gate, and muttered in a low voice in the ear of Polu, the main general of the Mongolian army.

"It's easy to kill him, but what's the benefit? Li Quan has some fame in Shandong, and the various forces in Shandong still need them to appease him. ”

Polu shook his head and watched as the drawbridge slowly fell, and the horses marched forward, and the Mongol iron horsemen followed like dragons, overflowing the moat.

Polu, the son of the famous Mongolian general Mu Huali, knew Chinese, was good at riding and shooting, and repeatedly made war achievements, his father Mu Huali died of illness and conquered the Central Plains on his father's behalf.

Dismounted, surrounded by a group of Mongolian generals, Polu quickly stepped forward a few steps and supported Li Quan's arms.

"The general doesn't have to be like this! Get up! ”

"The sin general Li Quan has come to surrender all the way, and please take the general in!"

Li Quan ignored Polu's persuasion, kowtowed three times, and then climbed up respectfully.

"Brothers of the Loyal Army, rise up. From now on, you will be your own person! ”

Polu grabbed Li Quan's arm, raised his voice and shouted at the soldiers of the Loyal and Righteous Army who were kneeling on the ground:

"General Li's prestige, I, Polu, have heard of it a long time ago. You have surrendered to my Great Mongolia, and you are the warriors of my Great Mongolia, and I will not treat you badly! I will repay the Great Khan, so that my brothers can serve my Great Mongolia with peace of mind! ”

"Thank you, General! We will definitely live up to the general's expectations, and we are willing to serve the work of dogs and horses! ”

"I am willing to do the work of dogs and horses!"

Li Quan spoke first, and the whole army swore together, speaking in unison.

"General, please get on your horse, please enter the city!"

Li Quan personally went over and led the horse for Polu.

"Then there is General Law!"

Polu motioned for his soldiers to retreat, Li Quan squatted down, and Polu stepped on Li Quan's shoulder and got on the horse. Li Quan personally led the horse and walked towards the city.

"The general doesn't have to be polite, it's an honor to be here!"

Li Quan led the horse, and the army swarmed into the city, and the banner of the Mongolian army was erected at the head of the city.

The night is still shallow, Qingzhou Prefecture, the Mongolian army will be the main general of the Polu night banquet Li Quan descended to the department, Polu is the leader, Li Quan and his subordinates are accompanied, Polu is gentle and appeased, Li Quan is respectful, and the guests and hosts are happy.

Halfway through the drinking, the soldiers reported to him, followed by Yang Miaozhen and Li Quan's eldest son Li Pu came in, and Li Quan, who was drunk and hot, was stunned.

"Mother... Child, big... Lang, how did you get to Qingzhou? ”

"Daddy, second uncle and younger brother were all killed by the rebels!"

Li Quan was dumbfounded, a family of three hugged their heads and cried, and the audience was all compassionate.

"General, please let the villain wave his troops south to attack the Song Dynasty and avenge his family!"

Li Quan bowed down, wept bitterly, and strongly told Polu to destroy the disaster, and wished that he would lead the army to return south to avenge the destruction of his family.

"General's Day mourns. Wait for me to report to the Great Khan, give the general the military power to lead the troops, and then wave the troops south! ”

Polu was relieved. The revenge of killing his wife and son, Li Quan can use it with confidence for the time being.

In the spring of the third year of Xingqing, the main general of the Mongolian army, Polu Chi, played the Mongolian army camp in Liupan Mountain for summer vacation, Genghis Khan ordered Polu to dispose of Li Quan cheaply, and named Li Quan as the province of Chuzhou in Huainan, Shandong, with Li Quan's Zheng Yande and Tian Shirong as deputy generals, the righteous army and the official army in Shandong surrendered when they heard the news, and Shandong Dading, and all parts of the country were successively under the rule of the Mongolian army.

Li Quan led the army back to Chuzhou, and his old generals Guoan killed Zhang Lin and Xing De to atone for Li Quan's crimes and returned to Li Quan's command. Li Quan re-entrenched himself in Chuzhou, recruited and trained troops, and there was no restriction on people from the north and south. He also ruled the boats and ships, confronted the Song army from the Huaishui and the East China Sea, and regained momentum.

Li Quan's break with the Song court also meant that the Song court completely failed in its decision to recruit the Shandong Loyal Army.

For the first time, the Song Dynasty and the Shandong Loyal and Righteous Army stepped onto the big stage of endless death.
