The sun shines wildly, making people fascinate.

Cao Zhan raised his hand to cover his eyes and walked towards Empress Cao.

"I heard that Li Shimin released all the 50,000 people. It would be better to send a message to all parties, support the prince ascends the throne, summon troops from all over the country, and regroup."

Qi Shanxing frowned and said, "After the 50,000 soldiers were free, no one followed us, which shows that they were no longer interested in fighting.

"Besides, our army was frustrated this time, and it will be difficult for the soldiers to recover their confidence in a short period of time. If we fight against the Tang army now, we will definitely lose."

Listening to Qi Shanxing's meaning, he clearly disagreed with his ideas. So Cao Zhan looked at Empress Cao and said, "I wonder what His Highness the Queen has?"

Empress Cao raised her head, glanced at everyone, and said slowly: "The Tang army is full of energy and is now the dominant country. With our remaining troops, we cannot fight against it at all.

"I think it's better to surrender, stop fighting, and stop causing trouble to the people."

Qi Shanxing remained silent, but the expression on his face revealed his approval.

Cao Zhan disagreed: "Our Xia Kingdom is already dominant in Hebei. Now it is just a defeat in Henan, and it is not that it has lost Hebei's territory. Why should it surrender?

"Although we lost a lot of troops, we did not hurt the fundamentals. We were defending Hebei, and the Tang army could not capture it for a while.

"Take this opportunity, we can accumulate our energy and fight the Tang army to the death in the future..."

Before he finished speaking, the scout came to report: "Report to the Empress, Tang Yan King Li Yi led his troops to invade our country, and now he has arrived in Mingzhou."

Hearing this, Empress Cao stood up, turned her back on her horse, and finished it in one go.

"Follow me to go back to Mingzhou."

Everyone rushed to Mingzhou City and rushed to the city of Mingzhou, corpses were everywhere, and the sound of fighting came from the city.

Empress Cao walked all the way to the palace gate and found that most of the corpses on the ground were Xia Jun. Her heart sank.

The Tang army stationed at the gate of the palace soon discovered Queen Cao and his party, and the soldiers shouted: "There are still fish that have escaped the net here."

When Yang Mao heard this, he turned around and looked at it. When he saw Queen Cao's face, he couldn't help but be happy: "That's the Queen of Xia, hurry up and catch her."

The Tang army immediately rushed to Empress Cao.

"Scroll..."

Cao Zhan and others all showed off their weapons and faced the Tang army head-on.

At this moment, Empress Cao shouted loudly: "Stop."

Cao Zhan paused and looked back at Empress Cao.

The others stopped.

Empress Cao got off the horse, walked to the Tang army, and said calmly: "Let's surrender."

"Queen..." Cao Zhan couldn't help but shout.

However, Empress Cao ignored him and threw the weapon in her hand to the ground, stretched out her hands, looking like she was slaughtered.

Qi Shanxing glanced at Queen Cao and also lost the weapon in his hand.

Seeing this, the soldiers behind surrendered one after another.

Cao Zhan had no choice but to follow him.

Yang Mao was overjoyed and ordered his subordinates to tie them up, and then took Queen Cao to the palace.

In the palace, the Tang and Xia armies were still fighting fiercely.

"Dongdongqiang..."

The harsh gong sounded, the battlefield was shocked, and everyone stopped.

The sound of the gong gradually faded, and Wei Ping took the opportunity to shout, "Empress Cao is here."

Everyone looked at the source of the sound in unison.

The soldiers retreated to the sides and gave way to the middle.

Seeing that Empress Cao was taken to the center of the square by Tang Jun and Dou Xiong was shocked, he shouted loudly: "My mother."

"Dalang..." As soon as Empress Cao shouted, her heart was filled with pain.

She suppressed the sadness in her heart and shouted loudly: "Dalang, your father has been captured by the Tang army, and we are in a state of great danger.

"Surrender, stop sacrificing innocent soldiers."

When Dou Jiande was captured, the fighting spirit of the Xia army soldiers collapsed instantly, and Dou Xiong was also shaking.

"How could it be...How could it be..."

My father is obviously very powerful, how could he lose to Tang Jun?

The sound of "ping-ping-pong" came, and the Xia army soldiers threw away their weapons and surrendered to the Tang army.

Li Yi was overjoyed and immediately ordered someone to tie up Dou Xiong and the senior officials of the Xia army.

When Dou Xiong was taken to Queen Cao, Queen Cao asked him: "Where is Erlang?"

Dou Xiong's eyes flashed, and then he lowered his head, not daring to look at Empress Cao: "Erlang... was killed by Tang army."

"No..." Queen Cao seemed to have suffered a huge blow, her body was shaking, she staggered back two steps, and finally fell to the ground and started crying.

......

In the battle of Mingzhou, Li Yi won a great victory.

Empress Cao led Qi Shanxing, Pei Ju, Cao Dan, Wei Zheng and other officials to offer the land of Xia, hand over the seal of Xia Dynasty, and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

The news reached Liu Heita, Gao Yaxian and others, and they immediately stopped going back to Mingzhou and quietly hid.

Subsequently, more than 30 states belonging to Zheng and Xia surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

At this point, except for Xiao Xian, Li Zitong, Lin Shihong and other regimes in the south, who were still resisting stubbornly, Li Yuan already owned most of the world.

------------

June 29, the fourth year of Wude, was the most anticipated day for the people of Chang'an, because the King of Qin would arrive in Chang'an on this day.

As soon as the gate opened, the people rushed to Zhuque Street.

Soon, Zhuque Street was crowded with people, and they all looked forward to the direction of Mingde Gate.

"Here, come." An excited voice rang out.

The next moment, the heroic Li Shimin appeared first in the eyes of everyone, and the onlookers immediately cheered.

"King of Qin, King of Qin..."

They poured all their admiration and love into the word "King of Qin" and shouted the title with all their strength.

The excited cheers of tens of thousands of people were like a mountain torrent that instantly devoured the entire capital.

King Li Shimin of Qin, wearing golden armor, walked at the front of the team, followed by King Li Yuanji of Qi, Li Shiji, Cheng Zhijie, Qu Tutong, Qin Shubao and other thirty mighty and powerful generals.

Behind them were cavalry in black armor - the Xuanjia Army, and then the fully armed infantry.

The golden sunlight scattered on their armor, emitting gorgeous and dazzling light, which was fascinating.

"Wow, King Qin Zhenjun, I would be fine if I could marry into the King Qin Mansion."

"Wow, General Cheng is more handsome than on the album. I want his signature album."

"Oh, the woman is just a little knowledge...Wow, General Qin is so powerful, I want to surrender to General Qin..."

"Bah, you're just short of knowledge. My brother said that I will go to the King of Qin tomorrow."

......

Listening to the quarrels and cheers downstairs, Wang Yu couldn't help laughing.

"This music sounds very familiar." Changsun listened with his ears.

Such a grand scene naturally requires music. The army walked from Mingdemen to the imperial city, and the accompanying military music along the way was accompanied by military music.

Wang Yu smiled: "After the second brother pacified Liu Wuzhou, the soldiers filled in the old songs with new lyrics and presented them to the second brother, called "Breaking the Formation Music".

"Later, I changed a few places and it turned into today's song. What does my sister-in-law think?"

"No wonder it's so familiar." Changsun bent his lips and listened carefully: "However, the modified song looks more majestic than the original song, which is very suitable for today's occasions."

"It's even more imposing." Guo Yunxi came over playfully.

Wang Yu held her arm and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law has vision."

"Ha ha......"

The three of them burst into laughter.

"Look, who is that?" Qi Shui suddenly pointed downstairs and asked.
