Chapter 161: Soliciting

Full text advertisement Chapter 161: Caressing

"Father, according to your instructions, I went to the capital and met Zhang Dali, Wu Guoxiong and others. They now have big houses in the capital and live a comfortable life. Full Text Advertisement They told me, Mr. Yue said

That's absolutely correct. Their generals have indeed received official certificates from the Ministry of Civil Affairs and have taken up their posts. Although they are all idle posts, they have salaries and houses, and their lives are also very good. Moreover, Zhang

Dali also wrote a letter to my father and asked him to read it."

After Zhang Xianzhong entered Yue Su's camp, Yue Su did not let him leave. Zhang Xianzhong knew that it was impossible for him to leave, so he arranged for Li Dingguo to return to the camp and go to the capital with Sun Kewang to check on those who had been sent to the capital.

After surrendering to the army, how was your life?

When I arrived in Beijing, I found Zhang Dali and others, and immediately learned that Mr. Yue kept his promise and arranged official positions for them. Regardless of whether they were high or low officials, they were all rewarded with houses, and their lives were very happy. Especially those in charge of Zhang Dali.

, the houses arranged for them were very luxurious, with a lot of maids and servants inside, making them look like rich men. In Zhang Dali's words, the purpose of fighting and killing in the past was not just to live such a life and not submit to the imperial court.

No matter how rich you are, you still have to be wary, worried that one day the imperial court will raise an army to attack you. Now that you have submitted to the imperial court, you are a legal official and you no longer have those worries.

As for whether the imperial court would settle accounts with them after the fall, Zhang Dali said that Master Yue had already made a blood alliance with them at the beginning, and he would definitely not break his promise. You need to know what kind of person Master Yue is.

Zhang Dali and Zhang Xianzhong were relatively good friends, so they wrote a letter to Zhang Xianzhong, introducing his current life and advising Zhang Xianzhong that if he really couldn't defeat the imperial court, it would be better to surrender while he still had some capital.

Although Sun Kewang was unwilling to do so, he could only accept his fate when he saw this situation. After all, the court really treated him well. Li Dingguo just took Zhang Dali's letter and returned to the Yuesu camp to tell what he saw and heard in the capital.

, report 1510 to Zhang Xianzhong.

Zhang Xianzhong took the letter from Li Dingguo. After reading it, he said: "If that's the case, then surrender. In this case, you can tell the soldiers outside the tent that I want to see Commander-in-Chief Yue."

Outside Zhang Xianzhong's sleeping tent, there were more than fifty soldiers standing guard. Li Dingguo went out, called a soldier, told the soldier what his adoptive father meant, and asked him to hurry up and pass the news. The soldier agreed and rushed to the Chinese Army immediately.

account.

In the Chinese army tent, Yue Su held a return report in his hand, which was sent jointly by Sima Qiaoyu and Zuo Liangyu. The content on it was very simple, that is, Li Zicheng had entered Sichuan, and Zhang Xianzhong's generals had surrendered to Li Zicheng.

Regarding Li Zicheng's entry into Sichuan from Xiangyang, Yue Su had received news from Xing Ying a few days ago. Although he knew about the matter, he was determined. With Xing Ying's troops, it was already rare to be able to stop the rogue bandits outside Huguang.

, it is really difficult to take care of Sichuan at the same time.

However, Master Yue's goal is to eliminate them one by one. It will not be difficult to deal with Zhang Xianzhong first and then concentrate on dealing with Li Zicheng in the future.

At this time, a soldier reported that Zhang Xianzhong wanted to see him. Li Dingguo had just returned to the camp, and Yue Su also got the news. It was estimated that it would not be long before Zhang Xianzhong would take the initiative to ask for a visit. He put the arrival report aside and said: "Invite him to come here

.”

"yes!"

The soldiers took the order and rushed back. After a while, Zhang Xianzhong arrived.

Yue Su invited him in, and the two talked about etiquette. Yue Su asked Zhang Xianzhong to sit down, and then said: "Captain Zhang, I wonder why you are asking to see me right now?"

"Shuai Yue, you must have guessed the purpose of Zhang's visit, which is to accept the recruitment of my subordinates. The people sent by Zhang to Beijing have returned. Mr. Yue is indeed true to his words, so Zhang is willing to lead his troops to surrender sincerely.

.Not only did the soldiers and horses in front of me all surrender to the imperial court, but even the soldiers and generals in Sichuan also surrendered." Zhang Xianzhong said sincerely.

"Captain Zhang, for those generals in your camp, I can go with you today to recruit them. However, as for your Sichuan soldiers and horses, I'm afraid it's not up to you to decide whether they will surrender to the imperial court or not." Yue Su

said.

"How is it possible? They are all Zhang's subordinates. As long as Zhang says a word, they will definitely submit to the imperial court. Why did Commander Yue say this?" Zhang Xianzhong said.

"I have just received reports that Li Zicheng has entered Sichuan and has now taken over all your territory. Even your generals have surrendered to Li Zicheng. I'm afraid it won't be that easy for Governor Zhang to make them surrender." Yue Su

He replied calmly.

"Ah..." Upon hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong was shocked and said angrily: "Li Zicheng! You treacherous villain! I am here to contain the army, but he went to seize my territory. I and you are incompatible!"

"Captain Zhang, calm down your anger. The matter has come to an end. It's useless for you to scold me." Yue Su said in a gentle tone.

"Commander Yue, if you believe in Zhang, please give Zhang some troops. Zhang is willing to fight to the death with Li Zicheng for the front, and kill this treacherous villain with his own hands!" Zhang Xianzhong suddenly stood up and shouted loudly

said.

"Captain Zhang, I am very pleased that you have the intention to serve the imperial court. However, Governor Zhang is a hero in the world, comparable to tigers and wolves. It is easy to restrain a tiger, but difficult to control it. In the battle of Chechai Gorge, although Li Zicheng pretended to surrender, this

I still remember the lesson,” Yue Su said with a smile.

Yue Su unabashedly expressed his distrust of Zhang Xianzhong's offer. Although it may be chilling, it is a big truth. There are too many rogue bandits who pretend to surrender, so how can you reassure people?

Zhang Xianzhong is worthy of being a hero in this world. After hearing this, although he was a little angry in his heart, he did not show it. He nodded and said: "Shuai Yue's words are true. If you and I were sitting in different places, Zhang would probably be the same. Okay, Yue

Zhang doesn't have to worry about who should be appointed to lead the army when the commander sends troops to attack Li Chuang. You and I should study the matter of recruitment. Zhang only hopes that when the commander conquers Chengdu, the generals of his original squad will be able to

If you want to appease someone, try to appease them as much as possible."

"This is natural." Yue Su nodded with satisfaction and continued: "This chapter of my request for the appointment of the governor has been sent to the capital. It is estimated that it will not be long before the decree is issued. I don't know most of the generals under the governor's command.

Name and surname, otherwise, the governor will call them here now, and I will record their names one by one, so that they can get to know each other and be recommended for official positions."

Good guy, this time Yue Su asked all the generals under Zhang Xianzhong to come over. If this happens, Zhang Xianzhong will not even have any capital. However, now that the negotiations have been completed, Yue Su made it clear what arrangements should be made.

It seems that you don’t need any more negotiating capital. Since you sincerely submit to the imperial court, you should do whatever Marshal Yue says. If you don’t respect him, is it called having two ambitions? Besides, your troops

Once you accept the reorganization, none of the generals will want to lead troops, and they will all go to the capital to serve as idle officials. By that time, it will not be easy to deal with you.

Zhang Xianzhong hesitated for a moment, thinking that since he was accepting the recruitment now, he had to make his attitude clear. As Mr. Yue said, you have surrendered to the imperial court. Do you still want to raise troops by yourself? Zhang Xianzhong nodded and said: "The commander-in-chief said

That's right, so I will write a letter now and ask my son Dingguo to take it back and summon his generals to the commander's camp."

"Very good." Yue Su nodded with satisfaction and said, "Here, bring some pen, ink, paper and inkstone for Governor Zhang."

Soon, a guard brought pens, ink, paper and inkstones, moved a table to Zhang Xianzhong, and asked him to write. Zhang Xianzhong did not hesitate, wrote a letter bit by bit, and then asked Li Dingguo to send it back to his military camp.

Li Dingguo returned to the camp with Zhang Xianzhong's autographed letter, summoned the generals, and read it in public. After he read it, the generals burst into an uproar and were all confused. What does this mean? Why are we all going to Yuesu now?

If this happens to the camp, if Yue Su turns against us and kills us all, our troops, horses, leaders, and officers will be vulnerable to attack.

"Everyone, my adoptive father wrote a letter to let everyone go, so it is natural for him to do so. Didn't my father also say in the letter that Marshal Yue has a reputation as a blue sky, and his words are as true as a mountain? If everyone doesn't go, won't it appear that we are not

I sincerely surrender." Li Dingguo saw everyone talking and suddenly said loudly.

"Brother, what you said is true, but we have already passed, so Yue Su won't be worried anymore." Liu Wenxiu was the first to say.

"Yes... but what Dingguo said is right. If we don't go, it will show that we are not sincere in surrendering. Now that the lord is still in Yue Su's hands, if we really send troops to fight, we, the leaders of the group, are no longer Yue Su's opponents.

.I think it’s better to listen to your lord.” Wang Shangli was more cautious and then said.

"It's not right to go, and it's not right not to go. Otherwise, go half way and keep half. At least there will be some money left to ensure the safety of those who go." Sun Kewang said.

"This is a good idea, then just follow what Sun Kewang said, let's go half and leave half."...

Sun Kewang's suggestion was supported by most people, and everyone agreed. Immediately, a simple meeting was held to determine which generals would follow Li Dingguo to Yuesu Camp and which generals would stay behind.

Zhang Xianzhong's men all valued loyalty, so they quickly reached a consensus. Among the main generals, Sun Kewang, Wang Shangli, and Ma Yuanli stayed behind, and one-third of the middle and lower-level generals were left behind. Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi, and Wang Dingguo followed Li Dingguo.

Go, and two-thirds of the middle and low-level generals will accompany you.

In this way, at least there is still a backbone in the camp, and if the officers and soldiers actually take action, they can fight for a while without being defeated directly.

After the meeting, Li Dingguo led the generals to the Yuesu Camp. At the camp gate, the soldiers informed Li Dingguo directly, "The commander-in-chief has ordered that after General Li and other generals arrive, they will go directly to the camp's teaching military field to meet. This is what I'm saying."

Walk."
