On Nanyuan City, Lord Li Guohan, the Han army flag leader, looked into the battlefield in the distance.

Just now, he saw with his own eyes the Qing army units that collapsed in an instant, and when he fled, he stepped on many colleagues and comrades to death.

The defeated Wu Sangui did not return to Nanyuan City. He was very rational. Not to mention what Li Guohan wanted to do when he retreated to Nanyuan City, could a small broken city be defended by the Ming army's firepower attack?

In order to prevent being caught in the jar, Wu Sangui rationally chose to return to Shengjing.

Anyway, I have tried my best and even the Guanning Iron Cavalry has been beaten and destroyed. What else can I say?

On that day, the Ming army was at the city of Nanyuan, and Li Guohan, the leader of the Han army flag, took the initiative to open the gate to the city.

Li Guohan was the son of Li Jixue, a third-class deputy general, and surrendered to the Later Jin Dynasty with his father.

His father Li Jixue was not a military general of the Ming Dynasty, but a Han businessman who was mingling in Liaodong. He began to sell daily necessities from home, known as "Li Shulang". Later, he also engaged in fur, ginseng and other businesses, and also hosted errands such as supply of materials for the Liaodong General Office, becoming stronger and bigger step by step.

Unfortunately, this businessman who often goes to and from the castles of the walls and passes on the east side of Liaodong took the initiative to cooperate with Hou Jinli to sell the Qinghe City where he was born and raised, causing nearly 10,000 military and civilians in the city to be massacred by the Eight Banners Army.

The following year, Nurhaci, based on the information provided by Li Jixue, focused his superior forces against the Ming army's "divided advance and joint attack" tactics, defeated the Ming army one by one, and won the victory of the Battle of Sarhu.

In order to commend Li Jixue's achievements in siege and secretly reporting, as well as collecting information from the Ming army and pursuing fugitives in Jianzhou, Nurhaci was awarded the third-class deputy general's position and was named Earl of Maoli, and he was granted the land and mountain fields in Wangchenggangzi of Qinghe City and Xigou.

The rise of a traitor led to the rise of his family. Li Guohan inherited the title and military position of his father Li Jixue, and became a hero of the Qing Dynasty to expand its territory and was named a famous general.

Now, after thirty years, Li Guohan has returned to his father Li Jixue's path and has taken the initiative to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

Outside Nanyuan City, there were waves of Ming army's infantry formations. These soldiers were wearing eight-petal hats and iron hats, wearing fine plate iron armor, and holding shiny and sharp bayonets in their hands.

Li Guohan led his troops out of the city gate, came to the Supreme Emperor Zhu Youjian with a smile on his face, and knelt down and said, "Finally, Li Guohan, the Han army flag inlaid with blue flags, Gushan Ezhen, and welcome the Supreme Emperor into the city!"

"Welcome the King's Army and welcome the Supreme Emperor!"

The second Tartars with the Han army flag were also cheering, licking their faces, looking very enthusiastic.

In Cao Bianjiao's surprised eyes, the Supreme Emperor surprised not to scold the traitor, but nodded slightly and smiled and said, "Well, you are quite conscious, please come to the city with me."

Li Guohan was overjoyed and followed behind happily.

After entering the city, the Supreme Emperor asked Li Guohan to summon all the surrendered Han flag generals, saying that they would hold a reward meeting in the central army and grant titles and feasts.

This made Li Guohan happy and hurriedly called for someone. He also put on new armor in person to welcome a bright future.

That night, there was a lot of joy in the Ming army's tent, and it was almost time for the New Year.

The Supreme Emperor not only found the art soldiers in the army to sing and dance, but also personally gave Li Guohan a cup. Without saying much, everything was in the wine.

Li Guohan and the second Tartars who returned to the Ming Dynasty were so moved. The Supreme Emperor was so courteous, so there should be no problem in the Ming Dynasty in the future.

The singing was over, the dancing was over, and the meal was almost done.

The Supreme Emperor suddenly put down his wine glass, looked at the surrendered generals on the right side of the tent, and asked, "Are you ready to eat?"

"Eat it well! Eat it well!"

“The lamb legs are really good!”

The surrendered generals replied with a smile, and Li Guohan was still holding a big lamb leg in his hand.

"Since you've finished eating, go on the road!"

The Supreme Emperor smiled and said this.

Then his face changed again, he slapped the table and shouted: "Come here, take down all these traitors and drag them to the gate to kill them!"

The imperial guards outside the tent rushed in and put the bright Yanling sword around the necks of the surrendered generals.

Many of the two Tatars who were confused and were awake suddenly and almost became scared to pee.

Li Guohan was pressed to the table on the spot, his old face tightly pressed against the half-parted lamb leg. He struggled desperately and shouted: "Prince, I will take the initiative to revolt!"

"Active uprising?"

The Supreme Emperor snorted coldly and said, "Your family took the initiative to join Jiannu."

Li Guohan shouted, "My general is wronged. That is my father's fault. Mo general was only in his teenage years old, and being a son was also helpless!"

The Supreme Emperor angrily rebuked: "You fart! My son Zhu Cilang is a stubborn person at the age of a few years and often fights against me. As a son, why isn't it a helpless act?"

Li Guohan has nothing to say. When it comes to Emperor Tianwu’s killing star, how can you evaluate it?

He kept praising him, saying that everything he did before was right, and it was a wise move? Then wouldn’t he offend the Supreme Emperor in front of him?

Seeing that he was dragged out of the tent, Li Guohan shouted: "I am a surrendered general. I have been the most shameless in killing surrender since ancient times!"

Since ancient times, it has been common for the army to kill and set fire, but it is generally recognized that the most unethical thing is to kill and surrender. If others surrender, you still have to kill them. Isn’t this unethical?

The Supreme Emperor laughed: "Where is the shameless thing to kill and surrender? Didn't the traitor Hong Chengchou often do such things? I have a good meal and drink to treat you, so that you can only take action after you have enough food. Hong Traitor Hong took action when he just started to use his chopsticks!"

At this time, Cao Bianjiao stood up and smiled and said, "This is the best man to testify. I was in the camp at the beginning. Old thief Hong often did such unethical things!"

Hong Chengchou once suppressed the enemy in Shaanxi, and he would always invite the surrendered thief leader to dinner. He would kill people as soon as the meal was started, and he would not wait for others to finish the meal. He acted very dirty.

So much so that later, as long as Hong Chengchou invited someone to dinner, no matter his colleagues or relatives and friends, he would not dare to respond and hide from afar.

Li Guohan was speechless. He really couldn't understand why scholars are even more cruel than warriors when they do things!

When death was about to begin, Li Guohan was naturally dissatisfied. He shouted angrily: "You have no faith and no righteousness. If you kill those who surrender, if the way of heaven exists, you will definitely be rewarded, and you will be repaid..."

All the generals present changed their faces slightly, but they really didn't expect that the boy would curse before he died.

They all knew that in history, several people who were famous for their surrender had basically no good ending.

For example, the killing god Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao troops, and was eventually sentenced to death by King Zhao of Qin.

Another example is the King of Chu Xiang Yu who killed 200,000 Qin troops, and his bodies were torn to pieces after his death.

The flying general Li Guang lured and killed 800 surrendered Qiang people. He fought a war for his whole life and was not granted a title of marquis until his death. He was eventually forced to commit suicide.
