Chapter 225: An Lushan Surrenders

First of all, the Lion Empire is good at blitzkrieg, that is, quick battles and quick decisions, and never drags mud and water.

But An Lushan did not adopt this strategy, but wanted to engage in a protracted war with Qi Tian.

Originally, it was delayed for ten days on the road, but after arriving at Yunhai City, An Lushan did not immediately start the war, but kept retreating into the camp.

Later, the news of the robbery was also transmitted back to the Lion Empire.

But what made Emperor Ah Nu Han strange was that An Lushan could still maintain a confrontation for several days without any supply of heavy grain and grass, which could not help but make Emperor Ah Nu Han suspicious.

After all, as the emperor of a country, Ah Nuhan knows very well what kind of people the lion army is, and strong men who can't eat enough for a meal.

But with no food at the moment, the legionnaires can hold out for days, and there must be something strange about it!

Later, Emperor Anu Han sent people to ask An Lushan what the situation was now, but all the signal soldiers were intercepted and killed by Qi Tian on the bank of the Weishui River.

In addition to the bodies of the first batch of escort personnel, the bodies of the follow-up signal soldiers were disposed of very cleanly.

But things have evolved to this point, and it is not enough for Emperor Ah Nu Han to give birth to a killing machine.

So, a letter sent from the imperial capital city in the name of An Lushan completely made Emperor Anuhan make up his mind to kill An Lushan and the other four tiger generals!

It's just that Wang Shouren didn't mention the content in the letterhead.

Qi Tian guessed that the letter to Emperor Ah Nu Han was not from Wang Shouren's hand, and Lord Wang should not know the content.

An Lushan gradually calmed down, and Bingfeng seemed to sense his change, so he let go of his hand and stood behind Qi Tian instead, like a bodyguard.

The atmosphere in the whole study suddenly fell silent.

After a long time, An Lushan's lowered head finally slowly raised, "What you said is true?"

Qi Tian sighed, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

An Lushan no longer doubted at this moment, in fact, when the tribe hadn't sent a letter for a long time, he felt that something was wrong, but at that time, he had to find food and deal with the poisoning of the soldiers, so he didn't think deeply.

Moreover, although he saw Qi Tian for the first time, he also thought about Qi Tian, and knew that according to Qi Tian's original intention, he should kill them all to establish his authority.

But now instead of killing them, he was talking to himself in the study, and the whole process seemed to have just changed, so he no longer doubted it.

Besides, he knew in the future that Qi Tian was lying to himself today, and it would be easy for him to turn against the water, which Qi Tian would not have imagined.

"Do you want me to surrender now and take refuge under your command in the future?" An Lushan asked straight to the point.

"You can't go back to the Lion Empire, even if your brother testifies for you, you didn't take refuge in the Sunny Empire, but Emperor Nu Han has killed your entire family, and he will never trust you again in the future.

So staying with me is your best bet. Qi Tian said.

An Lushan's head was raised and slowly lowered.

And Uncle Jiu, who has not spoken out all the time, also spoke to comfort at this time, "The living environment of the northern grasslands is harsh, and the Lion Empire is, to put it bluntly, a mobile tribe, countless children die every year, and women are exposed to the sun all year round, and most of them do not live to be fifty.

And the Sunny Empire has a rich land and a well-built city-state, which is definitely better than living in the northern grasslands, and our boss is giving you a chance to live again. ”

"I promise you. An Lushan suddenly raised his head.

Qi Tian and Uncle Nine felt a burst of ecstasy in their hearts, they didn't expect An Lushan to agree so happily!

If An Lushan joins, this will undoubtedly be a big increase in the military strength of Qimen or Yunhai City!

But Qi Tian's face did not show joy, but his eyes showed a fine light, staring at An Lushan tightly without speaking.

An Lushan understood what Qi Tian meant in his heart, "I swear to the sky with my life, and I will be loyal to you with all my life, if there is any betrayal, I will be eaten by ten thousand eagles and punished by the lion god!"

Qi Tian finally smiled with satisfaction, "Welcome to Commander An Lushan!"

He knew that although the people of the Lion Empire were barbaric and rude, they worshiped the lion god very much, and only people or things that were of great significance to him would swear to the lion god, which also showed that An Lushan was sincerely willing to be loyal to him.

"Haha, with the addition of Brother An Lushan, Yunhai City is simply like a tiger with wings!" Uncle Nine smiled.

Whether it is Qimen or Yunhai City, there has always been a lack of an experienced commander who can lead troops to fight.

Uncle Nine has always been in the army in the past, but he is a military advisor, and he has never commanded a large-scale army.

Long Wu is strong in martial arts, but he was born in the rivers and lakes, and the struggle between gangs is no problem, but there will be problems with leading troops to fight, after all, gangs and legions in the rivers and lakes are still different.

And the addition of An Lushan can make up for the lack of a commander in the Qimen Army.

"I have a request. An Lushan suddenly spoke.

Qi Tian raised his eyebrows, and a smile hooked into the corner of his mouth, "You want to seek revenge on Emperor Nu Han?"

An Lushan acquiesced, "I have made countless contributions to the Lion Empire, and I slaughtered my entire family because of a few rumors, the heart of the emperor is really ruthless and unjust!"

Qi Tian also sighed in his heart, the emperor's power technique, breaking off love and quitting love, ruthlessness and unrighteousness are just the basic principles, all emperors only have power in their eyes, and the emperor's family is the most indifferent and ruthless.

"I promise you, and, I promise you, the Lion Empire will perish. ”

An Lushan listened to Qi Tian's confident words, and a wave of hope was inexplicably ignited in his heart.

How difficult it is to destroy a country, he doesn't know, but he just feels that Qi Tian has this ability.

Next, An Lushan walked out of the city lord's mansion and began to lobby the 10,000 lion soldiers in the city to surrender.

Qi Tian stood from a distance and watched, but a little surprise rose in his heart.

Because he found that the lion soldier did not have the imaginary resistance mood, but lobbied for a while, and then agreed!

Could it be that the Lion Legion is so disloyal to the Lion Empire?

Uncle Nine saw Qi Tian's doubts, walked to the side, and said with a smile: "Boss, you may not know much about the people of the Lion Empire, the people of the Lion Empire are fierce, most of the women and food are robbed, the entire empire is a mobile tribe, it is not too much to use the four seas as their home, what they think about every day is three things, wine, food, and beauty."

As long as they have these three things, they can go anywhere. ”

Qi Tian was relieved, these lion soldiers did not have the concept of family and land, they basically lived wherever they went, which was completely different from the concept of family and assets of these ordinary people in the Sunny Empire.

But then he thought about it, the lion army seemed to be somewhat similar to mercenaries, and they did their jobs when they were paid!

When the soldiers in the city were recruited, An Lushan came to Qi Tian, "There are still 6,000 people outside the city. ”

Qi Tian smiled slightly, and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, "Mix this in water and let them take it, and it will be fine soon." ”

An Lushan took the porcelain vase, and then asked curiously: "By the way, I didn't ask just now, how did the city lord know that we were going to attack Yunhai City at night today?"

Without waiting for Qi Tian to speak, the ninth uncle on the side spoke, "Since you set off from the Lion Empire, the boss has ordered people to pay attention to the young men who entered Yunhai City during this time, so before they can act, they are firmly controlled by us, and now they are all locked up in the dungeon of the City Captain's Mansion." ”

An Lushan suddenly, and gave a thumbs up to Qi Tian in his heart.

It was not so much the lurkers he had planted in Yunhai City, but rather that Qi Tian intended to let them in, waiting for the plan to be calculated.

In this way, he gave his handle to Qi Tian.

"What about the sheep on the mountain?" An Lushan asked again.

Qi Tian blinked his eyes and smiled, "You are the commander of the famous continent, why don't you guess?"

An Lushan pondered slightly, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "There is another city on the mountain in the north?"

Qi Tian smiled "haha", "That's right, it's a secret, you just know it in your heart." ”

An Lushan was afraid for a while, and at the same time, a warm feeling rose in his heart.

What he was afraid of was that Yunhai City and the city in the north were at each other's throats, and if they were attacked from front to back, in the case of half of the legion being lost yesterday, the entire Lion Legion would be wiped out.

What moved him was that Qi Tian told himself such military secrets without concealing it, and it was clear that he did not treat him as an outsider.

You must know that once a stronger enemy attacks Yunhai City, then the soldiers on the northern mountains will become a surprise army, which can definitely play a role in deciding the outcome of the battle!

"You go out of the city by yourself, after being appeased, Uncle Nine will take care of everything, and tomorrow night, he will hold a welcoming banquet for you. After Qi Tian finished speaking, he walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.

An Lushan looked at Qi Tian's back, and suddenly felt that he couldn't see through this young boss.

Qi Tian's figure in An Lushan's mind before was also subverted.

Qi Tian, whether it is his mind, strategy, mind, ability, etc., even surpasses any emperor in the continent!

Early the next morning.

The City Lord's Mansion posted notices everywhere, officially announcing that An Lushan, Jiri Galang and other tiger generals, as well as their 16,000 troops, had all surrendered to Yunhai City.

In addition, An Lushan also became the general of the Fourth Legion of the City Guard Army, and Jiri Galang became the deputy general, commanding the entire surrendered Lion Legion.

This blockbuster news suddenly swept across the entire Xuangu Continent!

All the officials and emperors of the empire knew that this young city lord named Qi Tian not only killed Akbar, but also annihilated the 3,000 lion army, and now for the second time, he killed two tiger generals of the lion empire without a single soldier, drove a tiger general crazy, and slaughtered 16,000 people with an army of 30,000.

In the end, he forced the commander An Lushan to lead the remaining generals and soldiers to surrender to Yunhai City and become the Fourth Army.

And the court of the imperial capital city has been completely fried at this time!

Everyone, including the crown prince, the eldest princess, Qi Wuxian, Xie Jin and others, did not expect that the lion army, which had beaten the Sunny Empire to the point of being powerless, would actually surrender to Yunhai City, which was famous for trade!

The Lion Empire twice, with a total of 33,000 soldiers and six tiger generals, actually lost half!

At this time, not only the crown prince and the eldest princess, but all the officials in the court except Qi Wuxian wanted to meet this young man who was known as a gentleman and a scumbag.

How did he defeat the Lion Army, if a famous general like An Lushan surrendered with nearly 20,000.

"Tell the prince, the city lord of Yunhai City, Qi Tian, reported that An Lushan brought Ji Ri Galang, Sun Timur, and his 16,000 soldiers to surrender, hoping that the imperial court would issue an order that this team would be merged into the Fourth Legion of Yunhai City. A civilian official said.

In order for An Lushan and others to justifiably enter Yunhai City, Uncle Jiu sent the documents reported to the imperial court to the imperial capital city overnight.

The prince's expression was uncertain, and he was secretly glad that he had deliberately shown favor to Qi Tian before, so that he could understand that he was in favor of him becoming the city lord of Yunhai City.

And the eldest princess couldn't see her face clearly because of the golden veil, but the pace back and forth was enough to show that this incident shocked her.

Right now, Qi Tian's political weight in the Sunny Empire is getting higher and higher, and he has simply surpassed the Four Princesses and the Changyang Legion!

Although Qi Tian is now only a small city lord with a mere tens of thousands of people, his military strength, 3,000 city guards, 16,000 surrendered Fourth Legion, and 19,000 troops on the surface, of which 16,000 are still brave and good at fighting former lion legions.

In terms of generals, Xiao Xiaobing, Zhang Haoran, and Sun Kui, the three commanders, have all proven their strength and courage, and An Lushan is a famous general who has commanded hundreds of thousands of people and is famous throughout the continent!

Everyone understands the fact that Qi Tian and his Yunhai City have become a prince, and it is not difficult to even establish themselves as kings!

Moreover, there are rumors in the market that Qi Tian's military strength is even greater than what is on the surface, and there are as many as 3,000 Qi men guards in Yunhai City, and there are even recruits who have been temporarily recruited but have not been able to fight.

Both the crown prince and the eldest princess know that Qi Tian seems to have become the fourth princess, the Changyang Army, and the fourth important political bargaining chip after Xie Jin, and even surpassed the first three in weight!

Although the civil official asked for instructions, before the prince could speak, the eldest princess took the lead in speaking, "Agree to Qi Tian's request." ”

The civil official was stunned, and a hesitation flashed on his face, but he quickly returned to normal.

At present, although the crown prince and the eldest princess are in charge at the same time, the crown prince is the rightful first heir after all, and many times the prince still has to nod.

A trace of unhappiness flashed on the prince's face, "This prince also agreed, so he merged An Lushan and his legion into the Fourth Legion of Yunhai City. ”

There was no opposition to this decision from the two forces.

Everyone also understands that even if the imperial court does not agree, is it useful?

An Lushan and his army are loyal to Qi Tian, not from the Sunny Empire, even if the empire does not agree, it is a big deal to hide in the mountains, there is no difference, and no one will be able to take away this army.

The decree was issued to Yunhai City on the spot.

At the end of the day, the crown prince and the eldest princess returned to their palaces, and the two political forces each planned changes after Qi Tian's astonishing move.

Both sides are trying their best to win over the power of Qi Tian and pave the way for the future imperial throne!
