Thinking of this, Su Cheng knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, you are the first monarch who can unify the world since Qin Shihuang. Following you to conquer the world is my long-cherished wish in my life. To be honest, your Majesty has already given me this opportunity.

When attacking the Tang Dynasty, the general wanted to defect to you, but due to some special reasons, it was not possible. I hope your majesty can understand, but please rest assured, your majesty, my father has been deeply entrenched in the court for many years, and he will definitely not be punished because of being

It will be affected by the general’s affairs. After all, everyone has his own ambitions, Your Majesty!”

At this point, he was still a little unfinished. After thinking about the words, he continued: "Since the world has been divided and several countries have been divided, wars have occurred almost every year. The people have already suffered unspeakably. Therefore, in order for the common people to no longer suffer, in the end

Even if I am charged with treason, I will surrender to His Majesty and I am willing to be a pawn in front of His Majesty. The greatest blessing in this life is to be able to watch Your Majesty unite the four seas with my own eyes."

Zhao Changqing was quite helpless at this kind of dog-licking attribute. He shook his head and said: "Well, you can stay in the army and be an ordinary soldier. Yuan Jing, you can make arrangements."

Upon hearing this, Qi Jiguang clasped his fists and said, "The last general will take your orders."

When Su Cheng heard the sound, he suddenly raised his head, looking confused.

I said I was willing to be a pawn, so you let me do it?

this...

Now that things have come to this, he doesn't dare to refute anything.

Seeing Su Cheng's expression, Qi Jiguang opened his eyes angrily and said, "How brave! Why don't you thank me for letting you get what you wanted?"

Su Cheng, who was full of bitterness, had no choice but to kowtow and say: "General, I would like to thank your majesty for your great kindness. I wish your majesty immortality and unification of the world!"

Behind Su Cheng, Tang generals and officials, large and small, all knelt on the ground and shouted, "Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor."

Zhao Changqing never dreamed that Hucheng County could be obtained so easily.

He climbed onto the city wall. Currently, the Tang soldiers guarding Hucheng County have been replaced. Now they are all soldiers of the Wei Dynasty.

Zhuge Liang followed the emperor on the city wall to inspect.

As for Qi Jiguang, he will have to work under the city for a while.

With so many troops surrendered, arrangements have to be made.

After inspecting the four city walls, Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "This battle is probably the most enjoyable battle I have fought."

Zhuge Liang clasped his fists and said, "Do you believe it, Your Majesty? There will be many such examples in various states and counties of the Tang Kingdom in the future."

Zhao Changqing nodded and said: "As long as we capture the capital of the Tang Dynasty, nothing can stop my army from conquering the world."

Zhuge Liang said: "Your Majesty, the top priority right now is to attack with Jia Xu in front and back to capture Chiqing, Luowu, Dingdong, Yunshanguan and other places, and completely open a road to allow our army's supplies to be sent over.

"At the same time, we must guard the official roads outside Hujun City and cut off the connections with several surrounding cities and counties."

Zhao Changqing stood with his hands behind his back and said: "First capture Yunshan Pass. I already have a plan in mind. The news of Hucheng County's surrender has not been spread, right?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Not yet. Before the siege of Hucheng County, all the enemy scouts within a hundred miles of the Jinyi Guards were wiped out. Moreover, the ministers even made the illusion of continuing to attack the city, even though there were still enemy scouts nearby."

, they didn’t dare to take a closer look, and if they looked from a distance, they couldn’t tell whether Hucheng County was captured by us or not.”

Zhao Changqing nodded approvingly, "This is a good job. Yunshan Pass is located between two mountains. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. You can use the troops to capture Yunshan. This way, it can save us some money."

Strength, if it really doesn't work, it's not too late to choose to attack fiercely."

Zhuge Liang also meant the same thing. He bowed and said, "I will make arrangements now."

Zhao Changqing waved his hand and said: "Don't be so anxious, I have my own arrangements for this matter."

...

That night, Zhao Changqing called Su Cheng in the study room of the prefect's mansion.

Su Cheng came to the prefect's mansion to see him in silence.

After arriving at the study, Su Cheng knelt down immediately without any hesitation.

After seeing Su Cheng kneeling down, Zhao Changqing said: "No need to be polite, just get up."

Su Cheng heard the sound, stood up carefully, bowed slightly, and said softly: "I wonder what your Majesty is talking about when you come to see the general?"

Zhao Changqing said: "Do you know the guard of Yunshan Pass?"

The guard general of Yunshan Pass in the Tang Dynasty was named Yao Pu. He was a Jinshi and a civil servant, but he took the position of a military general.

Su Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Your Majesty, you have asked the right person. The guard general of Yunshan Pass is called Yao Pu. He is a disciple of the late general's father. I don't know that Your Majesty asked him, but because he is against Yunshan Pass."

Interested?"

What about this relationship?

This really comes with no effort at all.

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "Yes, I am indeed interested in Yunshan Pass. As long as you can help me, I will make you a high official so that you don't have to go to the front line to kill the enemy in person. What do you think?"

Su Cheng was overjoyed and quickly knelt down in the tunnel again: "Thank you, Your Majesty, General..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Changqing: "Don't thank me in a hurry. You might as well listen first. What do I want you to do? Do you think you can complete it?"

Su Cheng asked curiously: "Didn't His Majesty ask the last general to persuade him to surrender?"

Zhao Changqing asked: "Are you sure you can persuade him to surrender?"

Su Chengdao: "Absolutely, Your Majesty, please rest assured that Yunshan Pass will be brought under His Majesty's command."

Zhao Changqing looked at him and found that his eyes were full of excitement.

Are you really that confident?

"What if you can't persuade the Yunshan Pass guard to surrender?"

Zhao Changqing asked.

Su Chengdao: "Others may not be able to do it, but the general can certainly do it. Moreover, persuading Yao Pu to surrender is much simpler and easier than using some stratagem. There is no need to fight, which is easier. I hope your majesty can give the general a chance to prove himself."

opportunity.”

Zhao Changqing threw his original plan behind and said: "Okay, I will trust you just once. How many troops do you need for this trip?"

Su Chengdao: "Your Majesty, a few hundred people are enough. The main purpose is to ensure the general's safety on the way to Yunshan Pass."

Zhao Changqing made a decision and said: "Well, without further ado, you can set off tomorrow. I will be waiting for your good news here in Hucheng County. If you can really persuade Yunshan Pass to surrender, I will definitely reward you heavily.

"

Su Cheng was ecstatic, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After leaving, Zhao Changqing was not worried at all about what kind of trouble would happen to Su Cheng.

For example, he suddenly defected to the Tang Dynasty.

For people like him, the presence or absence of them makes little difference.

Moreover, since he chose to take the initiative to hand over Hucheng County, it must have proved that he wanted to live.

As long as he is not a fool, he should understand that only by staying with someone can he survive.

Late that night.

Zhao Changqing received news from scouts from various places.

It is said that the ten-pronged army attacked the city and destroyed the stronghold all the way, with no disadvantages.

At present, there are thirty-two counties, all of which are owned by the Wei army.

Because the Wei army adopts the strategy of supporting war with war, no matter which battle they suffer heavy losses, they will instantly replenish the vitality of the city and county.

Although, the dead soldiers may not be able to make up for it.

However, there is an endless supply of food, grass, weapons, etc.

Moreover, more and more troops are surrendering from various places.

After Zhao Changqing learned the news, he was overjoyed.

Everything is going as smoothly as I imagined.

According to this progress, it only takes a month or two to reach the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

The entire eleventh army was mighty and invincible.

This is also an example of a country's largest division of troops since the melee between countries.
