Chapter 131 Kaesong Surrenders

In the following days, Zhao Jiuxiao's army was like a broken bamboo all the way, attacking the city and conquering the territory, and killed it under the Xuantie King City.

Only one step away, Tiansheng Kingdom can destroy Xuantie Kingdom and occupy the entire territory of the enemy country.

This is an extraordinary achievement for Zhao Jiuxiao, and it is also the beginning of his glory.

He knew that he had to conquer other countries before he could become the greatest general, and destroying the Black Tie Country was only one step.

But this step is also crucial to Zhao Jiuxiao.

There are still 70 defenders left in Xuantie King City. Although they are not as powerful as the [-] troops that Zhao Jiuxiao has replenished, they are still enough to fight.

Zhao Jiuxiao also thought that Murong Kuang would fight to the end until he died in battle.

However, to his surprise, the enemy sent a letter of surrender.

Zhao Jiuxiao opened the letter, looked carefully, and found that it was Murong Kuang's handwriting.

In the letter, Murong Kuang expressed his request, that is, not to kill him, but to let him live as a prince without reducing his salary. As long as Zhao Jiuxiao agrees, he can open the city and surrender.

Zhao Jiuxiao was in hesitation, not knowing how to make a decision.

According to the target's situation, accepting seems to be the best choice, but he always feels that there is a fraud in it.

After all, according to Murong Kuang's personality, he shouldn't surrender so easily.

Zhao Jiuxiao called Hong Taishan, Sima You, Gongsun Wuji and others to discuss the next thing.

Then Sima You said: "General Zhao, in my opinion, Murong Kuang's purpose is very obvious, that is to let General Zhao enter the city unsuspecting and accept his surrender."

"On the way, he may do something crazy. General Zhao, please think twice."

Zhao Jiuxiao frowned: "The general understands."

Gongsun Wuji: "What Young Master Sima said is true, but if we don't accept the surrender, our army will attack the city, which will be disadvantageous."

Then, he changed the topic: "So, my suggestion is that General Zhao had better accept the surrender, but set the surrender location outside the royal city and see what Murong Kuang explains."

Zhao Jiuxiao smiled: "Gongsun Shaoxia's method is good!"

Hong Taishan asked: "What if he doesn't agree?"

Gongsun Wuji: "If he doesn't agree, it shows that he has a ghost in his heart, and our army can attack the city. If he agrees, it may be a sincere surrender, and our army can rest assured."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Okay, just follow what Gongsun Shaoxia said."

After the discussion, he wrote a reply letter in which he asked Murong Kuang to leave the city and surrender. If not, he would lead his army to attack the city. However, Zhao Jiuxiao promised not to harm the people in the city.

Murong Kuang quickly accepted Zhao Jiuxiao's request and wrote back saying that he was willing to leave the city and surrender himself.

For an emperor, this is the last step.

Zhao Jiuxiao readily accepted and agreed to hold the surrender ceremony at noon tomorrow.

He also arranged in the barracks and laid out a red carpet to show respect for the enemy.

At noon that day, Zhao Jiuxiao was sitting in the tent, waiting for the other party to come.

Gongsun Wuji, He Zhengyang, Luo Wenyuan, Gongsun Wuji, Xuanyuanfeng and others were all present.

There are also masters of various factions.

Murong Kuang also appeared in front of the crowd with all the civil and military officials and a jade seal in his hand.

At this time, there was no trace of disappointment or pain on his face, but he was very relaxed.

Zhao Jiuxiao was somewhat surprised.

In his opinion, Murong Kuang is the king of a country, and no matter what, he should not act like this.

But Murong Kuang just did this, and he did it so naturally.

The civil and military officials are all extremely destitute, and it is not easy to be a minister of subjugation.

Some even had tears in their eyes.

Murong Kuang stood in front of Zhao Jiuxiao: "See General Zhao!"

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty."

He also stood up and saluted the emperor.

Murong Kuang said: "General Zhao, I want to hand over the Chuan Guo Yuxi to you, I hope you will accept it."

Zhao Jiuxiao smiled: "That's natural, as long as His Majesty sincerely surrenders, this general will definitely treat His Majesty generously, and let His Majesty take care of his life, and he will never die unexpectedly."

Murong Kuang nodded: "Okay."

After speaking, he took the jade seal and placed it on the table in front of Zhao Jiuxiao.

Zhao Jiuxiao opened the box and saw the jade seal inside.

It was crystal clear and had a special brilliance that Zhao Jiuxiao couldn't put it down.

But at this moment, Murong Kuang suddenly let out a crazy laugh: "Hahaha."

Zhao Jiuxiao was a little surprised: "Your Majesty, why is this happening?"

Murong Kuang: "I'm laughing that as the king of a country, I should be damned for doing such a thing!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly lifted his coat, revealing the explosives strapped to his body.

Zhao Jiuxiao frowned: "Your Majesty, you!"

Before he finished speaking, Murong Kuang had already taken out the torch and lit the fuse: "General Zhao, let us die together!"

[Ming Yu Gong! 】Seeing that the situation is not good, Zhao Jiuxiao hastily mobilized his internal energy and released a large amount of Xuanbing Zhenqi.

Murong Kuang was frozen, and his fuse was also extinguished.

Zhao Jiuxiao took a long breath and pulled out the [Tai'a Sword].

With a flash of sword light, Murong Kuang's head was chopped off.

All the civil and military officials of Xuantie Kingdom were shocked and could not help but tremble all over.

Zhao Jiuxiao also started laughing: "Murong Kuang, you are indeed a crazy person, but it's a pity that this general is so powerful that you have no chance."

Before he finished speaking, he looked at the civil and military officials: "Your emperor is dead. Are you going to surrender? Or go underground to accompany him?"

Civil and military officials all begged for mercy: "I am willing to obey General Zhao's orders."

Only a few did not accept it.

Zhao Jiuxiao waved his hand: "Very good, lock up those who don't accept it, and treat those who accept it well and keep them in the military camp."

Not long after, the army of Xuantie Kingdom also surrendered to him.

Zhao Jiuxiao successfully resolved his troubles.

However, he did not stay idle, but entered the Black Iron King City, and ordered the soldiers to search the whole city, not to let a suspicious person go.

In the end, Zhao Jiuxiao entered the palace.

I saw only the maids, eunuchs, and palace guards standing there neatly, bowing to him and saluting: "Greetings to General Zhao."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded with a smile, and walked into the main hall of the palace step by step.

Looking at the dragon chair in front of him, he waved his hand: "Burn this chair, from now on, there will be no more Xuan Tie Kingdom."

The soldiers clasped their hands and said, "Yes, General!"

Before the words fell, the dragon chair was carried away and turned into ashes in the raging flames.

And Zhao Jiuxiao looked at the thick smoke soaring into the sky, thinking about his next plan.

Next is the quicksand country.

This kingdom with wizards is obviously more difficult to deal with than the Black Iron Kingdom.

However, Zhao Jiuxiao was ready to use the Tiger Leopard Cavalry and Xuanjia soldiers for his own use to enhance Tiansheng Kingdom's combat effectiveness.

In addition, as long as they are civil and military officials who are willing to surrender, he will ask them to assist the officials of Tiansheng Kingdom to manage the old place of Xuantie Kingdom after careful investigation.

For this reason, Zhao Jiuxiao selected many honest ministers.

After the arrangements were made, he embarked on the road to return to the capital of Tiansheng Kingdom.
