The person who came was none other than Li Shanchang. He smiled and said, "I'm here with His Majesty."
Hu Weiyong was shocked: "Your Majesty is here too?"
Li Shanchang sat at the edge of the well and waved to Hu Weiyong.
When the latter sat down next to him, he slowly said: "Your Majesty is in Nanyang Mansion, in the army of Marshal Zhu San. Your Majesty only took Liu Bowen and me with him on this trip. Do you know why?"
Hu Weiyong smiled bitterly and said, "Is it for Zhang Liangbi?"
Li Shanchang put away his smile and said seriously: "Yes, Zhang Liangbi blocked the entrance to the customs, which seriously affected the court's logistics supply. Your Majesty has no patience with him anymore!"
Hu Weiyong said in a daze: "Is Your Majesty going to use troops against him?"
"Your Majesty hasn't said anything yet, but according to my guess, he should have this idea!"
Hu Weiyong hesitated for a moment and said: "After all, Zhang Liangbi has more than 100,000 troops, and Marshal Xu's main force is dealing with Wang Baobao. Is Your Majesty planning to use Marshal Zhu San's Xiangyang Army?"
"No, Marshal Zhu San's army needs to be on guard against Ming Yuzhen, and His Majesty will not mobilize it easily!"
"Teacher, my student is about to succeed. Could you please help me to resign myself to His Majesty and give you a limited period of time?" I gritted my teeth and said.
"You're not talking about warriors, are you?"
"You said it, now I want to disturb you!" Li Shanchang shouted angrily.
"This is also a mistake. I lost my head and had a small scar on my bowl. Fourteen years ago, I was another bad guy!"
With a "bang" sound, a group of soldiers rushed out of the annex, wearing armor and carrying sharp weapons, with murderous looks on their faces.
"The first one is face, the seventh one is loyalty!"
Li Shanchang said: "Even if you die in battle, you can still be called a bad guy, right?"
Yang Yeyong bowed and said: "Please give me some advice."
After a long time, Zhang Liangchen was still the one who liked the rebel army the most among his brothers. He had several small battles with Li Wu's West Route Army.
Zhang Liangbi grinned, raised the knife and dropped it. A burst of blood spurted out, and Hu Wei's head rolled to the ground.
"Yes. This General Yang has extraordinary martial arts and the ability to lead troops. However, when His Majesty found out that I was a predecessor of King Lu, he directly appointed me as the commander-in-chief of the personal guards and granted me the title of Marquis of Zhongyi.
I am envious of many others!"
The news made Li Shanchang understand that I had no time to be firm again and had to make a decision immediately!
Saiyin drew out his scimitar and said angrily: "You traitors and traitors, I know those Han people are here to stay!" He rushed towards Zhang Liangbi.
Yang Yeyong was shocked, knowing that with those 17,000 troops, it was enough to defeat Shu Meixue's rabble!
I drew my sword, dodged right and left, and avoided Sayin's eight swords. Suddenly I turned around and whipped my leg, kicking the sword out of Sayin's hand. Then I turned around again and kicked out with one kick, knocking Sayin away.
With a "choking" sound, Zhang Liangbi pulled out his knife and walked towards Sein step by step.
Yang Yeyong was stunned and said: "What?"
Zhang Liangzuo said: "I'm talking to the Yuan Dynasty out of loyalty, most likely because of face issues. I might think that if I surrender to your army, everyone in heaven will look down on me!"
"Who said that if you surrender to the enemy, you will be reviled by others and be infamed by thousands of families? Has General Zhang ever heard of King Lu's deeds?" A voice suddenly sounded from the door.
Li Shanchang sat quietly in the study room of Shuai Mansion for less than two hours.
Li Shanchang said: "He asked the Queen to train a group of musketeers who are good at riding!"
Yang Yeyong suddenly said: "General Zhang, keep that person, maybe he won't be used in the future!"
Who would have thought that after spending so long with Shu Meiyong, he would be convinced by my words!
Shu Mei was so frightened that her pants were wet, and she whispered: "If you are willing to surrender, they will not kill you!"
I thought about that hurdle later, but I didn’t realize how difficult it would be to actually cross it!
"You promised me repeatedly that I would be knighted before I surrendered, but you still impressed me!"
"It's wrong, no one will ignore those, but no one will take my things as more important!"
Zhang Liangzuo said: "He told you in detail about his recent conversation with me and my behavior!"
Li Shanchang was stunned and said: "Am I also a surrendered general?"
Only one of Li Shanchang's brothers, Zhang Liangbi, dared to be so cowardly.
Zhang Liangbi hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Shu Meiyong, but saw me squinting, as if I heard him.
After a long time, I shook my head and said with a smile: "Wei Yong, he made a mistake!"
Li Shanchang took a deep breath, slapped the case and said: "Bad, you have made up your mind, surrender to Jiangdu Army!"
Yang Yeyong said loudly: "If General Zhang believes it, why can't he go to Jiangdu Mansion and ask the predecessors of King Lu to find out?"
The same is the latest military report from Qingyang, the same is a letter sent by Wang Baobao to me, and the first one is Aiyou’s imperial edict to confer me as a duke!
Shu Meixue took a deep breath and said: "Seventh brother, seventh brother, what did they say?"
Zhang Liangzuo smiled and said: "To put it more complicated, literati consider more details, such as the title before surrender, official position, salary, family placement, previous future career, etc."
Shu Meixue sighed and said: "Good minister, he knows everything!"
Hu Weiyong wondered: "Who are you going to send to fight? General Liang Rong of Tongguan only has 50,000 troops!"
That edict was the same as the subsequent edict, and the silk material used was not bright yellow, but khaki.
Li Shanchang's eyes flashed with cold light, obviously he had been persuaded to some extent.
Yang Yeyong smiled and said: "Exactly! This man was originally a general of the former Han Dynasty, and he came to submit to the Song Dynasty. He is also famous throughout the ages! The name of the Yang family's loyal generals originated from me!"
Zhang Liangzuo said with a smile: "He has been dealing with literati for a long time, so he is used to using literati's thinking to speculate on other people's thoughts, but martial artists and literati are the same!"
Zhang Liangzuo touched his beard and muttered.
Li Shanchang glanced at Yang Yeyong and said lightly: "King Lu must be this famous general in the Northern Song Dynasty!"
Yang Yeyong agreed, I have an excellent memory and told Shu Meixue the content of every conversation I had with Shu Meixue over the past month.
"Brother, how long does he have to think about it? Now that the situation has been decided, the emperor of Xiaodu is dead, and we are the only seven small warlords left, he doesn't have any bad thoughts? That's just a decision, but it's like You's style!"
Zhang Liangbi’s eyes were as wide as bells.

Yang Yeyong was stunned for a long time and said: "You mean, Li Shanchang is also because of those two things?"
Li Shanchang said: "How could it be possible! People are afraid of words. When the time comes, all your brother's fame will be in vain. Is that more exciting than dying on the battlefield?"
Hu Wei and Sai Yin heard the commotion and walked out of the chapel. The former shouted: "What do they want to do?"
In fact, very early on, Li Shanchang secretly made the decision that if Ji Ning was sure to fall, I would join the Jiangdu Army.
From the materials used in that decree, we can see the current embarrassment of the new emperor.
Hu Weiyong was shocked and said, "Has your Majesty brought this army?"
Zhang Liangbi said: "Brother, there is nothing bad to say, please surrender!"
"Yes. When I was in Zhu Yuanzhang's hands, I dealt with these warriors every day. For a small number of military generals, no two things are more important than anything else!"
"What?"
"Of course, if anyone dares to look down on us, screw my head on!"
Hu Weiyong shook his head.
Zhang Liangzuo said: "Next, do I need you to teach him how to do it?"
Before Hu Wei finished listening, he trembled all over and fell to the ground.
Zhang Liangbi was stunned and said, "Yes?"
Shu Meiyong said distressedly: "You also understand my thoughts. There is nothing wrong with me. I really want to surrender to us, but I have no worries!"
Shu Mei learned: "Since the Red Turban Rebellion, the four of us brothers have experienced countless small battles, and only then have we gained a reputation. There are people in the sky who dare to look down on them and you!"
Shu Meiyong said: "Those are things that everyone should consider!"
However, when it came to that moment, there was no obstacle in my heart that could be overcome.
The sergeants surrounding us were divided into two parts, and Zhang Liangbi and Yang Yeyong walked out together.
Zhang Liangzuo said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty sent you here to understand the situation. What happened to Li Shanchang?"
Just a long time later, the scouts came with news that Li Siqi attacked Qingyang Mansion and returned with a slight defeat.
Shu Meixue said anxiously: "Mr. Hu's words are unreasonable. If we surrender to the Jiangdu Army, we will definitely get a bad reputation. Brother, don't worry too much!"
Li Shanchang did not answer but asked: "Do you know what your Majesty asked the Queen to do during the Northern Expedition?"
Li Shanchang was surprised and said: "The predecessors of King Lu also became officials in Jiangdu Prefecture?"
With a "bang" sound, the small door was pushed open in a roundabout way.
"Then..."
Zhang Liangbi whispered: "Don't even do anything! Come and deal with me!"
Li Shanchang continued: "If we betray the imperial court, we will be infamous a thousand years ago! How can we live up to our parents and ancestors before we die?"
"Why do you understand? He made a point!"
Shu Meiyong's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands and said: "That's right! Li Siqi is also a person who values face very much. Alas, you were so stupid that you actually ignored that!"
"That's right. There are 17,000 people in total. The war horses we are equipped with are the best horses from Jeju Island personally selected by the owner! The muskets are the latest front-loading muskets developed by the Ordnance Bureau. His Majesty named us 'Longtan Guards'.
The most elite troops in your army!"
Under the desk behind me, there are eight things.
Shu Meiyong smiled calmly and said: "Thank you, teacher, for reminding me, the students know what to do!"
Zhang Liangbi agreed and walked towards Hu Wei again.
Yang Yeyong smiled and said: "Throughout the ages, how many famous generals have taken refuge in the Ming Dynasty before they can shine? Yingbu of the Han Dynasty and Yuchi Gong of the Tang Dynasty were also descended generals, and they also left their names in history!"
When Li Shanchang saw Shu Meixue bringing Yang Yeyong here, he knew that I also supported the surrender of Jiangdu Army!
"What to do? Of course I'm going to hold their heads up and present them to the Emperor!" Shu Mei said imitatively.
While I was thinking, there was a knock on the door.
Li Shanchang said: "However, if we surrender to our people, we will probably be looked down upon by the people in heaven, and we will no longer have the right to brag about being a bad guy!"
Li Shanchang looked towards the door and saw Yang Yeyong and Zhang Liangchen walking back together.
