The next day was a sunny day, and a long-lost red sun shone on the silver-covered Guangling County. At Chenpai time, Liu Zijin led his large team of troops to appear outside Guangling City, overlooking the familiar city.
Liu Zijin was filled with emotion as he slapped his horse on the butt and threw away his men, running towards the city wall first. When he got close, he was stunned... The flags fluttering at the top of the city were all replaced by the military flags of the Ming Dynasty, blue.
The color is bright and the characters are particularly dazzling.
"These bastards!" Liu Xing rode up to catch up and spat: "They really thought the boss had surrendered.
Liu Zijin looked livid, was silent for a while, and then ordered: "Let the children line up outside the city."
So nearly 20,000 troops formed several majestic square formations under the watchful eyes of the people on the city. Then the soldiers held their weapons high and shouted together: "The sky is bounded by the sky, the sky is mighty and the world is unparalleled."
Everyone on the top of the city looked at each other in shock, and the fool also saw that Liu Zijin didn't want to surrender quickly.
Upstairs at the city gate, Wang Xian frowned in displeasure and said, "He is indeed an idiot."
Although I don’t know what idiot means, everyone can see that Wang Xian is really angry. You Liu Zijin will fight if you want, and surrender if you want. You obviously don’t have the courage to fight, but you choose to take Qiao here. It’s really annoying.
Very unhappy
"Sir, I would like to lead my troops out of the city to teach this arrogant guy a lesson." The captain surnamed Chen was eager to make meritorious deeds and hurriedly volunteered.
Wang Xian looked at him and said with a smile: "It's good to teach him a lesson. Why go out of the city? Just shout at the top of the city."
"Yes." Chen Qianhu went down to the city gate tower, came to the city wall, and shouted outside: "Is this General Liu Zijin Liu down below?"
"Chen Laoba, why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf?" Before Liu Zijin could answer, Liu Xingxian said coldly: "General Tongtian is back. Open the city gate quickly and let us in."
"Haha, who was I at that time? It turned out to be Brother Seven..." Chen Qianhu was furious at being scolded, but he sneered on his face and said, "I'm sorry, we are all members of the imperial court now, and we must abide by the rules of the imperial court."
"Who is from the imperial court?" Liu Xing became angry when he heard this. Grandma, even if you want to submit, you have to wait for me and Da Longtou to go back before you can make the decision. When will it be your turn to make the decision?
"Now everyone in Guangling City is from the imperial court." Chen Qianhu took the risk and asked Liu Xingdao loudly: "Are the Seventh Brother and Da Longtou not from the imperial court?"
This question was so painful that Liu Zijin and the two brothers could not say yes or no. If they said yes, it would be fine, and there would be no need to do anything else. If they said no, the situation would get out of hand. Liu Zijin had no choice but to
He coughed and said: "Chen Laoba, what are you talking about? Do you have the right to speak here? Please come out and speak, Lord Wang Xian."
When the old dragon leader spoke, Chen Qianhu immediately stopped chanting and secretly looked up at the city gate.
"Hahaha, Lao Liu, you have done a good job," Wang Xian laughed loudly on the city gate upstairs: "Not only did you defend Pingxing Pass, but you also brought Han Tiancheng's army back. I will hire someone for you.
Good job hahahaha”
After hearing this, Liu Zijin's nose almost became angry. He returned to Pingxingguan for his brothers. When did it become a task for the imperial court? Han Tiancheng's army was originally his subordinate, and now it is just a return to his command. This is good.
Let Wang Xian put it this way, he has become a dog legion of the imperial court.
Looking at the eyes of the people around him, it turned out to be different. But Liu Zijin was so angry that he said in a low voice: "If you want me to surrender, just open the city gate and come out to accept the surrender."
When Liu Zijin said this, he used his inner strength, and every corner of the city could hear it clearly. This was not a surrender at all, but a provocation and a mockery of Wang Xian's courage - I have already made the conditions, you
If you dare to open the city gate and come out to accept surrender, I will surrender.
If you don't even have the courage to do so, what qualifications do you have to accept my surrender?
Sure enough, the city top suddenly became quieter. Inside the city gate tower, the generals urged Wang Xian not to take any risks. "Absolutely not. What should we do if he takes the opportunity to break into the city?"
Wang Xian looked at the worried faces around him and said with a smile: "Don't worry, everything is under control." He raised his voice and ordered in a voice that could be heard both above and below the city: "Open the city gate."
After that, he had to walk down to the city gate and leave the city to accept surrender.
"Military advisor, you must not take any risks," Xue Huan and others grabbed him and said, "If you really want to go out and accept surrender, let us do it for you. You are our backbone, so you must not take any risks." "Yes, military advisor, you must not take any risks."
"
"What risk are you taking?" Wang Xian laughed loudly and said, "Liu Zijin is a charlatan. Since he has spoken out, he will never slap himself in the face in public."
"Sir, don't take any chances," the generals said with their last efforts.
"Okay, stop being so annoying." Wang Xian laughed and shook off the crowd and said, "Don't let people underestimate us.
After a while, the city gate slowly opened. Wang Xian, wearing a white Confucian robe and riding a white horse, came out of the city with only Xianyun and Wu Wei who were pretending to be followers. Facing nearly 20,000 people holding hands
Although Wang Xian was a soldier with a sword, he did not panic at all. He only smiled at Liu Zijin and said: "Brother Liu, I'm out."
These words were spoken calmly, as if they were talking to each other, but they completely broke Liu Zijin's guard... At this moment, there were only two people behind Wang Xian, but there were 20,000 people behind him, but in terms of momentum, he had been completely overwhelmed by Wang Xian.
Xian was overwhelmed. That kind of naked contempt was so natural that Liu Zijin felt a sense of consciousness in his heart. No matter how hard he tried, he could not escape from his grasp.
This realization was a huge blow to Liu Zijin. His face remained uncertain for a long time. He finally fell off his horse, knelt on his knees, lowered his head and said nothing. Before this, he had never obeyed anyone, including the King of Jin.
Guilty, but at this moment, in front of this person, he completely surrendered...
Ordinarily, at this time, the winner should pull up the loser to show his generosity. However, Wang Xian remained motionless and said nothing. He just looked at Liu Zijin who was kneeling on the ground quietly. Finally, Liu Zijin, whose eyes were full of fire,
Xing also knelt down... Seeing that the two leaders had knelt down, the others followed suit and knelt down...
You have to be on the top of the city to appreciate the panoramic view of this amazing scene. Wang Xian, who only brought two followers, forced Liu Zijin and his 20,000 men to kneel down and surrender. It was really shocking...
Everyone who witnessed this scene was impressed by Wang Xian's great wisdom and bravery, but in fact, based on Wang Xian's understanding of Liu Zijin, he knew that there was no danger at all this time... because Zhang Wu was Liu Zijin's benefactor, and a loyal man like Liu Zijin was
It is impossible to ignore one's benefactor. In fact, for Liu Zijin, after losing the fighting spirit, it is best to surrender, because no matter what you do, you will lose... It is nothing more than adding a bit of legend to the opponent's story.
Wang Xian ordered Liu Zijin and Liu Xing to take 200 people with him into the city to rest. The rest of the army was stationed in the military camp outside the city, waiting for His Highness Taisun to lead the army.
Zhu Zhanji arrived earlier than expected. In the afternoon of the next day, he and Shanxi Dusi led 10,000 troops. On the day Taisun arrived, Wang Xian gathered the three armies and lined up ten miles outside the city to welcome His Highness Taisun.
, and ordered Liu Zijin to surrender to His Highness Taisun on behalf of Guangling City. Zhu Zhanji was very happy and announced on the spot that Wang Xian's promise was fully fulfilled. He would inform the emperor as soon as possible, pardon the White Lotus cultists, and integrate the surrendered troops into his own army
under his command
At this time, the White Lotus believers were completely relieved of their worries and sincerely surrendered to His Highness Taisun. Zhu Zhanji came to the county government again to express condolences to the wounded soldiers. With excitement, he announced to the soldiers that the Guangling Bandit Suppression Campaign
, the young army won a great victory
Cheers immediately resounded through the sky, and the soldiers hugged each other and shouted. For a moment, all the sacrifices were worth it.
After dinner, Zhu Zhanji and Wang Xian wandered around the back house of the county government office. Although the soldiers had already cleared the corridor, they preferred to walk where there was snow, seeming to enjoy the crunching sound of stepping on the snow.
"Zhongde, I can't say any more words of thanks." His Highness Taisun looked at Wang Xiandao affectionately: "It won't be worth it if you say it too much, but I will remember everything you did for me, and I'm afraid I will never repay you.
Not clear."
If these words came out of Zhu Di's mouth, Wang Xian could only go back and find a rope to hang himself to avoid distressing the emperor. But when it came out of Zhu Zhanji's mouth, it would have no lethality, so just listen to it.
Wang Xian smiled bitterly and said: "You are too generous. In fact, I can only say that it is just okay, and it has left too many sequelae for you and the prince."
"It doesn't matter." Zhu Zhanji knew what he was talking about, so he smiled and comforted him: "How can everything go as planned? We will solve it slowly in the future." Then he punched him and said: "You kid, stop being picky.
, solved the Shanxi military ration case, and made a surprise attack on Guangling City. These ordinary people can boast about it for a lifetime if they do one thing well. But you completed two things at once, isn't that enough? "
"So?" Wang Xian touched his nose and said, "I do have a reason to fart."
"Haha, of course, if you don't stink, who will?" Zhu Zhanji laughed loudly.
"Why does this sound like a curse?" Wang Xian said with a wry smile.
"Haha, don't get me wrong." Zhu Zhanji and Wang Xian laughed for a while, then suddenly lowered their voices and asked: "Zhu Ji Yan, Zhu Meigui is dead, was it you who killed him?"
"Probably not dead." Wang Xian shook his head and said, "I killed him as a substitute."
"Substitute? Are you sure?" Zhu Zhanji looked relaxed. He knew that King Jin must have bad intentions when he told him this, and he probably wanted to use himself to restrain Wang Xian.
"Long Yao...that is, the daughter of Longtan Longshi said that Zhu Meigui's substitute was a eunuch. Zhu Meigui was afraid that because of their resemblance, he would cause trouble in the palace, so he had the substitute castrated in advance.
Most people don't know about this." In Wang Xian's mind, the corpse in the cave in Xiaojiangnan appeared. And the old eunuch Liang did not find any abnormalities in the corpse precisely because he did not know about it.
"That's good, that's good." Zhu Zhanji said, fearing that Wang Xian would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "Even if you kill him, I will only say that it was a good killing." He said with an embarrassed smile:
"However, you'd better not get involved in the clan's blood..."
