I'm a marquis in Datang

"bow!!"

Zhong Taiping said, and bowed to salute.

The rest saluted one after another.

All the people saluted Lu Deming respectfully, and then took Lu Deming down.

Zhong Taiping immediately ordered people to bury Lu Deming generously, and buried Lu Deming directly, and then a group of people directly opened the Jianmen Gate and began to go to the military camp of Xia Kingdom outside the pass.

Chapter 1289

Entry

Xiaguo military camp, the large tent of the Chinese army.

Xiao Yuanqi and Zhonglang General Sima Benteng are playing chess, but it is not Go, but Xiangqi.As the chief general in the army, Xiao Yuanqi is not proficient in Go, but likes to play chess.His chess skills are half-baked, and every time he plays chess with Sima Benteng, he belongs to the side that gets beaten, but he likes to lose and fight repeatedly, and likes to play chess with Sima Benteng.

Xiao Yuanqi leaped obliquely with the horse in his hand, and then called out 'General'.Immediately, Xiao Yuanqi said: "Sima, it's almost two days now. We don't know the situation in Jianmen Pass for the time being. I guess there must be people who have gradually escaped from the Jianmen Pass barracks. Wait until tomorrow, and we will attack Jianmen Pass in one go. Take down Jianmen Pass. Then, you can attack Li Chengqian."

Sima Galloping's horse also jumped obliquely, abducting Xiao Yuanqi's horse's leg, and then said: "General, you and Ma Junshi have strategized and planned, and we will definitely win. Let's attack, we will definitely win, we will definitely win of."

There was also a smile on Xiao Yuanqi's face.

He also thought he was certain to win.

This time, it is bound to win.

"Report!"

At this moment, a soldier directly entered from outside the tent, clasped his fists and said, "General, sentinel

Back to the message, the Jianmen Pass was suddenly opened, and there was an army coming towards our camp. "

After hearing this, Xiao Yuanqi took a look at the situation on his own side. There was only one horse and cannon left on his chessboard, but Sima Galloping's chessboard had all chariots, horses and cannons, even two horses. The advantage was much stronger than him. .Although he said to attack, he was reluctant to attack, and he couldn't stop Sima Benteng's attack at all. He directly confused the chessboard, then stood up and said, "How many people are there on the other side?"

Sima Benteng shook his head and smiled when he saw Xiao Yuanqi's refusal, he was used to this for a long time.

Just don't tell the truth.

Sima Benteng looked at the soldier who reported the letter, with a look of expectation on his face.

The soldier reported: "Reporting to General Xiao, there are about thousands of people on the other side, but each of them is in a state of depression. Even these people have never slack off their weapons, and everyone's state is extremely poor."

Xiao Yuanqi narrowed his eyes, and after thinking for a while, he looked at Sima Benteng and said, "Sima, you think it might be these people, come and surrender."

Sima Benteng said: "General, it can't be. Even if the food in the pass is burned, Li Chengqian can't surrender, at most he will retreat. The general thinks that this may be tricky."

Xiao Yuanqi waved his hand and said, "I'm too lazy to guess, let's go, follow me to have a look."

Sima Pentium responded immediately.

Xiao Yuanqi got up and went out, Sima Benteng and the soldiers also went out together.As Xiao Yuanqi walked, he gave the order for the entire army to be on alert. At the same time, he came to the gate of the camp and quietly

waiting.Not long after, a group of people appeared outside the camp, and this group of people was clearly Zhong Taiping and his party.

The leader is Zhong Taiping.

When he led the people forward, when the distance from the camp of Xia Guojun camp was close to [-] steps, he could already see people gathered in the Xia Guojun camp of the other party. Obviously, the Xia Guo army had received the news, so they came early. It's ready.

Zhong Taiping never stopped, and continued on his way.

He walked forward for about eighty steps, and when he was only about twenty steps away from the camp, he stopped and said, "General Xiao Yuanqi, I'm calling Taiping, and I'm going to lead everyone to submit to Xia Kingdom. We've already taken control of Jianmen Pass." , and now I am here to surrender."

When Xiao Yuanqi heard it, a surprised expression appeared on his face.

He came to surrender.

The news was beyond his expectation.

Xiao Yuanqi said: "Zhong Taiping, come forward and talk."

"Yes!"

Zhong Taiping got the order and quickly moved forward.When he came in front of Xiao Yuanqi, he saluted and said: "I'll call Taiping and pay my respects to General Xiao Yuanqi."

Xiao Yuanqi said: "You said that you brought people to submit to the Kingdom of Xia, and you also said that you have taken control of Jianmen Pass, but there is Li Chengqian in the pass. Could it be that Li Chengqian has already retreated."

Zhong Taiping said: "General Xiao's eyes are as bright as a torch, and I admire you. Li Chengqian has indeed retreated to Jianzhou with a group of confidants and a group of soldiers, heading towards Pu'an County and preparing to station in Pu'an County. When Li Chengqian retreated, he stayed The next military division, Lu Deming, is in charge, but I wait for a group of people to see Lu Deming and ask him to surrender, hoping that he will surrender with us. Lu Deming first agreed to our surrender to Xia, but when we went to reorganize the army, he hanged himself. So we join hands to surrender, begging Xiao The general accepts."

After Xiao Yuanqi heard it, a smile appeared on his rough face, he flicked his sleeves and said, "I will accept your request."

Sima Benteng reminded from the side: "General, you should be more cautious."

Xiao Yuanqi said: "I will know."

He looked at Zhong Taiping again, and said in a deep voice: "Zhong Taiping, is there anyone guarding the current Jianmen Pass?"

Zhong Taiping said: "There are only a few soldiers."

Xiao Yuanqi said in a deep voice: "Well, all the soldiers you brought stay here, and then you take an army under this general's command to directly control Jianmen Pass."

Zhong Taiping responded immediately.

Xiao Yuanqi immediately looked at Sima Benteng, and ordered: "Take the team under your command and go to Jianmen Pass with Zhong Taiping. After taking down Jianmen Pass, search carefully. After confirming that there is no error, arrange people Come back and inform, the general will get the news, and immediately set off for Jianmen Pass."

"Yes!"

Sima Pentium clasped his fists in response.

He completely agrees with Xiao Yuanqi's arrangement, even if there is an ambush at Jianmen Pass.But Sima Benteng only took some people with him, and he could evacuate in time if something happened, and a large number of teams were still there.

After Sima Benteng mobilized his troops, Zhong Taiping appeased the soldiers of the Tang army who had surrendered, and left with Sima Benteng, heading straight for Jianmen Pass.

Xiao Yuanqi stepped forward in person at this time. He looked at the soldiers of the Tang army standing outside the camp. These people were depressed, very depressed, and listless. After all, they were hungry and their bodies lacked energy.

Xiao Yuanqi said in a deep voice: "You used to belong to the Tang Dynasty, but now you belong to the Xia Kingdom, I would welcome you. Speaking of it, in fact, whether it is the Xia Kingdom or the Datang, they are essentially the same. They all have the same blood, all the same."

"Because we come from the same source."

"In addition, you have surrendered to the Xia Kingdom, so you are the people of the Xia Kingdom. As long as you serve the Xia Kingdom with sincerity, you can enjoy the treatment in my Xia Kingdom's army, and you will not be treated badly."

"I won't say anything superfluous, as time will see people's hearts."

Xiao Yuanqi said: "Besides, you have been hungry for a long time, so eat some dry food for now

abdomen.When the news came back from Zhong Taiping that he was going to win Jianmen Pass, he arranged for the cook to bury the pot and prepare meat for you to have a full meal. "

"General Xiao is wise!"
