Chapter 457: Persuading to surrender
Originally border of Xixia.
Now it is under the control of the Great Han Dynasty. Except for the cities bordering the former Xixia border with the Liao Kingdom, all the other cities in Xixia are under the control of the Great Han Dynasty.
The reason why it was so fast was that it had such results in less than two months.
The first is because of the sharp military force of the Han army that defeated the 250,000 Xixia army and killed the Xixia emperor Li Ganshun. Xixia no longer had the power to block the power. The second is because of Li Ganshun's last decree before his death.
In order to protect his bloodline from being killed by the Han Dynasty, he wrote an order to order all the Western Xia army to stop resisting and surrender to the Han Dynasty.
For a moment.
With the gradual control of the Xixia city, the Han Dynasty also successfully incorporated nearly 50,000 Xixia defenders, while the 150,000 troops on the border have not been included.
at the same time.
As the army approached the last border pass of Xixia, the Han attack on Tubo reached a critical moment.
The two armies of Zhao Yun and Guan Yu attacked at the same time, with a rapid force, unrivaled and easily captured more than ten cities.
Liu Xie also issued an order, ordering Lu Bu to lead his army to aid Tubo and destroy the three major legions.
The three major legions have a total of 130,000 troops. If they were just ordinary generals, it might not be enough to destroy Tubo, but the three generals of the Han Dynasty were all in the master's realm. It would be impossible to destroy Tubo.
"The King Qi Zuo, the army has surrounded the border pass of the Xixia. The next step is to use Li Ganshun's imperial edict to surrender them." Jia Xu came to Liu Xie and reported.
"Who is going to ask for surrender?" Liu Xie nodded and turned to look at Jia Xu.
Jia Xu pondered for a while and said, "I am going to let the three masters go to surrender at the same time, so that even if you face thousands of troops, you can get out."
After all, Helian Ming, who was about to surrender, had 150,000 troops. If he had any change in his mind, it would be difficult to deal with it. After all, there was no need to lose too much.
"Accurate." Liu Xie just thought about it and agreed.
Since Jia Xu had already made up his mind, it proved that he had planned for a long time and was foolproof.
"The king is wise, I will pass on the king's will to let the three great masters go to the border pass of the Xixia." Jia Xu bowed and clasped his fists, then retreated.
"Now, the situation is that the destruction of Western Xia and Tubo is just a wave of hand. Zhao Ji, I wonder what actions you will do? Don't let Gu down." Liu Xie carried his hands on his back, with a smile of endless calculating on his face.
Xixia Pass.
The last large army in Xixia was hoarded. The 150,000 army was originally defending the Liao Kingdom, but now it is focusing on defending the Han Dynasty.
Inside the pass mansion.
Helianming and his generals gathered together, and each of them looked very lonely.
"General, how should we deal with ourselves in this situation?" asked a general sadly.
Although it has only been less than two months, the news that the Xixia Emperor was captured and Li Gan died, and the 250,000 troops were wiped out have spread to the whole world, and they naturally knew it.
The emperor they were loyal to died and the country was destroyed, and they became stateless people.
"How else can we deal with ourselves? Our family is in the imperial capital. If we fight against Han, Han will not let our young family go." Helianming smiled bitterly, and his heart was extremely sad.
When I went to war, I didn’t think so much about it. My family lived in the imperial capital and was also the safest place in a country, but I didn’t expect it to be so shattered.
"Does we have the only way to surrender to the Han Kingdom?"
"But after all, they killed the emperor. If we surrender to the Han Kingdom, I am afraid that the world will despise us."
Many Xixia generals were a little hesitant.
Just then.
"Where is Helianming?"
Suddenly, a heroic voice rang in the ears of the generals of the Western Xia.
"who?"
Helianming suddenly stood up and looked out of the hall.
"The great Han Dynasty worships Dugu."
"The great man worships Zuo Ci."
"The great Han Dynasty worshipped, Zhang Sanfeng."
With the gaze of the Xixia generals in the hall, three figures appeared at the entrance of the hall.
"It's you."
Helianming and his generals looked frightened.
Since the Han Dynasty came to the Northern Song Dynasty, the three great worshipers of the Han Dynasty have spread far and wide, causing countless enemies to be scared, and countless generals died in their hands.
"You are so brave. I still have 150,000 troops in my city. If you invade alone, aren't you afraid of my army's encirclement?" Helian Ming said with support.
"I'm afraid you won't come."
"We have only one purpose today. We are here to follow the will of our great Han king to summon you and others." Dugu was too lazy to talk nonsense and directly explained his purpose.
"ridiculous."
"You Han Dynasty stepped on my territory of Xixia and killed my lord of Xixia. Now you still want me to surrender. This is impossible." Helian Ming sneered.
"If it weren't for your Lord of Xixia who begged me to the King of Han, you have become the souls of my great Han cavalry at this moment." Dugu took a cold look.
"What do you mean?" Helianming frowned.
"This is the will of your Xixia Emperor." Dugu waved his hand, and a piece of cloth was added to his hand. With the blessing of true energy, he threw it towards Helianming.
With solemnity, Helianming took the rag and opened it. His expression suddenly changed drastically, and his eyes became extremely complicated.
"General, is it really the emperor's will?"
"What did the emperor say?" asked a group of Xixia generals rushing to speak first.
"You retreat, command the troops and prepare to open the city and surrender." Helian Ming smiled bitterly and raised the rag in his hand, with the meaning very obvious.
"This..." The generals of Xixia hesitated a little.
"This is the emperor's last will, and we are ordered to surrender to the Han Kingdom. Do you want to disrespect the sacred order?" Helianming glared.
"I will obey the order."
See this.
The generals of Xixia did not dare to disobey at all and retreated one after another.
"What will you do with us after we surrender?" Helianming smiled bitterly and looked at Dugu.
"I, the great man, never kills meritorious ministers. If you surrender to my great man and avoid war, this is a meritorious. Even if you will not have great power in the future, your life and glory can be guaranteed." Dugu glanced at him and said.
"In this way, I feel relieved. I just want the big man to spare my family. As for me, I will let the big man deal with it."
Helian Ming also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound.
Regarding this.
Dugu and the other two remained silent and did not want to talk more nonsense.
"Report."
"General, it's not good."
"When Li Yanzong heard that the general was going to open the city to surrender, he killed the messenger and fled towards the Song State with his 50,000 troops."
At this moment, a general of Xixia ran over in a hurry.
"What? How dare Li Yanzong do this?"
Helianming frowned and said angrily.
Then he came back to his senses and immediately ordered: "Chase, chase me, and kill Li Yanzong."
