Ming Zuo

Hao Yaoqi, Liu Tichun, Li Guo, and Li Laiheng are world-renowned rogues, while Tan Wen, Tan Yi, and Tan Hong are the top snakes of Shizhou Wei.

But who will take the top spot in Kuidong?

It must be Wang Guangxing.

Wang Guangxing was born as a bandit, but his reputation was not obvious at that time. He followed his brother Wang Guangchang in Huguang, and later surrendered to Xiong Wencan.

Like many rogues, after surrendering to the court, the Wang brothers were loyal and tenacious in fighting Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong.

Later, Li Zicheng swept Huguang, and the Wang brothers were trapped in Xunyang City for two years, completely unaware of the changes in the outside world.

When Wu Sangui sent an order to summon the Wang brothers to suppress the bandits, they didn't even know that the Manchus had entered the customs.

When he arrived at Wu Sangui's camp, seeing that the general situation was over, Wang Guangchang immediately shaved his hair and surrendered without saying a word.

However, Wang Guangxing was loyal and led the team away, embarking on the road of resisting the Qing Dynasty.

Zhu Youlang proclaimed himself emperor in Guangxi, and when he learned of Wang Guangxing's deeds, he immediately sent envoys to grant him Nanzhang Bo, Chief Military Officer and Governor Tongzhi.

So far, Wang Guangxing has regarded himself as a wise minister.

After the National Defense Forces called, Wang Guangxing felt that he couldn't bear it, so he retreated all the way to Shizhouwei.

Then Hao Yaoqi and others came over one after another. In order to keep warm, they made an alliance with blood, hoping to be horns and support each other.

Wei Luan and Yuan Zongdi went to meet Liu Tichun first under the banner of envoys of the National Defense Forces.

Liu Tichun used to be General Guoyi of the Youying Army of the Shun Army, while Yuan Zongdi was the General of the Youying System of the Shun Army, and he was his immediate superior.

When the old man met, Liu Tichun was very happy, and immediately threw a big banquet.

"Now that things are going on, the general trend of the world is clear. Brothers, have you ever thought about the future?"

After the wine was hot, Yuan Zongdi took advantage of the situation to explain his intention.

Liu Tichun couldn't help but open his heart when the wine was in his heart.

"Mianhou doesn't know something, brothers' life is... bitter!"

The generals from all walks of life came to Shizhou Guard, but instead of working together, they were wary of each other.

In this way, Liu Tichun, who is the weakest, will be out of luck.

After Wang Guangxing was stationed in Shizhou Guard, without further ado, he attacked him, robbed Nanping Township, and expelled him to the barren mountains.

In the past few months, Liu Tichun's department lacked food and clothing, and life became more and more difficult, and it was almost impossible to sustain it.

Liu Tichun asked Hao Yaoqi and others for help many times, but there was no news.

Only Li Laiheng was willing to help him, but Li Laiheng was far away in Fengjie, beyond his reach.

Li Laiheng invited Liu Tichun to join him, but Liu Tichun didn't dare to leave when he saw so many covetous people on the road.

While doing nothing, Yuan Zongdi came.

Liu Tichun finally found the backbone, and pinned his hope of survival on Yuan Zongdi.

"To tell you the truth, my lord followed His Majesty all the way to battle, and was trapped by the Tartars at the riverside, and almost died. Thanks to the National Defense Army's rescue, I was able to escape. Now the empire has occupied the north and south of the river, the Central Plains Dingding, the Tartars The child has also been wiped out. If you want to live a good life, brothers, you have to see the situation clearly."

Hearing Yuan Zongdi's persuasion to surrender, Liu Tichun and others were not surprised.

After all, Yuan Zongdi introduced Weiluan's identity when they first met.

But part of Yuan Zongdi's words surprised everyone.

"Mianhou, the Tartars have really been wiped out?"

"How is it possible? The Tartars are ferocious and invincible in the world, how can they be destroyed immediately?"

Yuan Zongdi knew that they didn't believe them, so he simply gave way and left the stage to Weiluan.

Wei Luan smiled confidently.

"So that all heroes know that just a few days ago, the battle report of Liaodong has been spread all over the world. If you are interested, you can find out the truth if you go to the foot of the mountain and ask around. A month ago, our National Defense Army first defeated the Tartars in the Xilamulun River Dorgon, the captive chieftain, also died in this battle. Immediately afterwards, the rest of our National Defense Forces broke through Shenyang and Liaoyang, and occupied Hetuala. The pain of being strong."

Everyone present was shocked, with different faces.

They all fought against the Qing army.

They couldn't be more clear about how powerful the Qing army was.

It was a nightmare they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

As a result, I heard now that the powerful Manchu Qing Dynasty was wiped out by the empire in just a few months.

How powerful is that empire?
But no one felt that Wei Luan was lying.

After all, what Weiluan said is right, whether it is true or not, you will know when you go to the foot of the mountain to inquire.

It is impossible to hide this kind of news from the world.

Liu Tichun's heart was beating wildly, and he had already determined that the National Defense Forces were strong and irresistible.

He's only worried about one thing now.

"But general, I have always heard that the empire is very benevolent and righteous to the people. Under the rule of the empire, the people live a fairy life. I wonder how we will be settled after we surrender?"

This is asking for benefits.

Who will surrender if there is no benefit?
Wei Luan was not surprised by this.

"Before I come here, His Highness King Wu asked me to give you a message. After you surrender, you can come and go as you please. Those who want to continue to serve in the army, our National Defense Army will open the door to everyone; those who want to live in peace, the country will allocate Land and property, to ensure that everyone lives and works in peace and contentment."

He added another sentence.

"And the empire does not limit household registration, you can live wherever you want in the future."

The conditions have been revealed, which can be said to be very tolerant.

When Liu Tichun and others heard this, they were all moved.

Among them, there are indeed some who have had enough of the turbulent military life and want their wives and children to stay warm.

In the future, if you can settle down safely and have no worries about eating and drinking, then you have nothing to ask for.

Those who are ambitious are not afraid, they can still join the army and fight.

The National Defense Force is so powerful, as long as it continues to fight, the credit will definitely be rich.When the time comes, it will be no problem to seal his wife and son.

Liu Tichun and others got together to discuss for a long time, and finally made up their minds.

He led the crowd with wine bowls and arranged them in order to bow down in front of Weiluan.

"Your Majesty, Long En, the empire has treated me favorably. From now on, I am willing to be the people of the empire and have no second thoughts."

Wei Luan and Yuan Zongdi were very happy to successfully subdue Liu Tichun.

They made statistics for Liu Tichun's department on the spot, and made a whereabouts form.

Although no rewards were given on the spot, their actions reassured everyone.

After all, if it's just fraud, why do you have to do it so carefully?
After becoming a member of the empire, Liu Tichun began to help make suggestions.

"Li Laiheng only wants to avenge the Marquis of Hao County, but he has no hatred towards the empire. If he knows that the empire has wiped out the Tartars, he will be willing to surrender."

Li Laiheng is Li Jin's adopted son.

Li Jin died at the hands of the Qing army, and Li Laiheng vowed to avenge him.

Moreover, Li Laiheng is a good man, known for his talents, and he is the best among the remaining generals of the Shun Army.

"Since that's the case, how about asking General Liu to run around?"

Wei Luan was very generous, and did not hesitate at all because of Liu Tichun's new arrival, and assigned tasks on the spot.

Liu Tichun is a straight person, he likes this kind of atmosphere, and immediately agreed happily.

Then he told the two of them some secrets about Kui Dong Shisan's family.

Just like the three Tan brothers.

Although the three are brothers, Tan Yi and Tan Hong have long held grudges against their elder brother Tan Wen, and even have murderous intentions.

Liu Tichun felt that this was an opportunity to help the National Defense Forces open the situation in Kuidong.
