The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1053 Newbie surrenders ([-])

Since the news that the Song Army forced the Shicheng County defenders to surrender the city two days ago reached the Xinding Department, he knew that he could not stand up to the Song Army's edge, and thus he had the idea of ​​surrendering to the Song Dynasty.Because Duan Qilin, the king of Dali, had fled north in a hurry with all the civil and military officials, there was really no need for him, Du Yongchang, to fight the Song army to the death.

His roots are in this new department.When he went to Shuzhong, he was no fart.

Du Yongchang also knew what Liu Zhuwen said just now about Emperor Song deposing nobles in the Song Dynasty.

He looks rough, but his mind is still delicate and his head is flexible.Otherwise, in this fiercely competitive tribe, it would not be possible to hold the position of leader for so long.

Although he knew that Emperor Song would probably carry out drastic reforms after he got Dali, he never thought that the butcher's knife would fall so quickly.

Liu Zhuwen hadn't led his army to take his Xinding City yet, so he was so eager to tell him that he would be deposed as the city lord in the future.

What does this mean?
This means that it will be impossible for his new department to maintain autonomy in the future.

Zhao Dongting's control over Dali will only be greater than Duan Qilin's.

The original luck in Du Yongchang's heart disappeared without a trace at this moment.

He only felt a chill coming from his heels and rushing straight to the top of his head.

At this moment, he even had the idea of ​​rushing forward and beheading Liu Zhuwen immediately.

Stripping away the position of city lord is taking away Du Yongchang's backbone.

Just imagine, Song Dynasty will send a new city lord over in the future.With Da Song's current prowess, it would be easy for him to hand over the military and political power in Du Yongchang's hands.

And those people in his Xinding tribe lived under the rule of Song Dynasty officials for several years, can they still remember him as the former city lord and leader?
Du Yongchang has been the leader of the Xinding Department for more than [-] years, so there is still some care about this.

As long as the people eat well and dress well under the rule of the Song Dynasty officials, they will live a better life than when he was ruled by Du Yongchang.Soon, the leader of his clan will be forgotten.

Even if they don't forget, most of them won't obey him anymore, they just respect him on the surface.

This is intolerable to Du Yongchang.He was really reluctant to part with the power in his hands, and he didn't want to change from a toubob to a nobleman with a glamorous appearance.

However, if he does not agree to Liu Zhuwen now, then the matter of surrender will naturally be out of the question.

Liu Zhuwen will immediately lead his army to capture his Xinding City.

At that time, it is hard to say whether Du Yongchang can walk out of Xinding City alive.Even if you go out, you will only become a lost dog.

This is worse than depriving him of real power.

Therefore, for a while, the expression in Du Yongchang's eyes kept changing.

And Liu Zhuwen sat on the horse, just looking at him indifferently.There seems to be a little smile in the eyes.

He knew how Du Yongchang would choose.

To put it bluntly, Du Yongchang has no choice at all now.The imperial army of Song Dynasty led by him, Miao Cheng and Liu Zhuwen was the butcher's knife on Du Yongchang's head.

Unless Du Yongchang is willing to give up this head for power.

Could Du Yongchang be such a fool?
Sure enough, after the past few minutes, Du Yongchang seemed to have been drained of a lot of energy.

This is the intuitive feeling of the spirit, which may not be visible to the naked eye, but Du Yongchang gives people the feeling that he is not as heroic as before.

There was a dazed look in his eyes, with some expectations, and he lowered his posture, and asked Liu Zhuwen: "Then Commander Liu, dare to ask how the Great Song Emperor will arrange us in the future?"

The smile in Liu Zhuwen's eyes finally stopped hiding slightly, and he said, "Your City Lord Du asked me about this matter, it's better to ask yourself."

"Ok?"

Du Yongchang showed some doubts.

Liu Zhuwen went on to say: "You can only gain if you give up. If City Lord Du is really willing to let go of certain things, with my heart towards the emperor, City Lord Du will live a better life than now."

"really?"

Du Yongchang was instantly moved.

Liu Zhuwen chuckled, "Although there are no princes of peace in Song Dynasty now, it will not be difficult for Du Chengzhu to live like that. At that time, I will also speak to the emperor."

A gloomy look still flashed in Du Yongchang's eyes, but he bowed his hands immediately, "Then Du thanked Commander Liu first."

This should be regarded as Liu Zhuwen's promise.

And although he, Du Yongchang, was still reluctant to give up, he also understood that this was already a very good result.

As the saying goes, it is better to live than to die, not to mention, he, Du Yongchang, will be able to live a life like Prince Anle in the future.This is always a thousand times better than defending Xinding City.

After thanking him, he led all the civil and military people to kneel down in front of the Great Song Imperial Army.

Liu Zhuwen laughed, "City Lord Du and everyone please hurry up!"

Soon, the general who entered the city led more than a thousand people out of the city.

This is the only remaining defender in Xinding City.

Up to now, the novice department has been exploited by Duan Qilin to the point of death.There are more than a thousand people, maybe they are all patched together.

In the entire army, only a handful of people could wear armor.There are even many people who don't even have soldier uniforms.

This is almost the same as the rebels.

After Du Yongchang officially surrendered, Liu Zhuwen, Miao Cheng, Zhang Hongwei and others led an army into the city.

After Shicheng County, the national flag of Song Dynasty was also erected in Xinding City.

The only difference from Shicheng County is that Shicheng County still resisted after all.This Xindingcheng took the initiative to surrender.

Liu Zhuwen and the others no longer deliberately pretended to be arrogant, and suddenly appeared to be much more friendly, chatting and laughing with Du Yongchang and the others.

Du Yongchang and the others clearly knew that Liu Zhuwen and the others were just acting, but they had to cooperate and could only smile wryly in their hearts.

Afterwards, Du Yongchang hosted a banquet in honor of Liu Zhuwen and others in the city lord's mansion.

Liu Zhuwen only said a word to Du Yongchang during the banquet, which made Du Yongchang's expression much better.There is joy emanating from the heart.

Liu Zhuwen said to him: "City Lord Du, although your status as the city lord will not be guaranteed in the future, you are the first to surrender to the Song Dynasty after all. When I submit a letter to the emperor, I think the emperor will reward you immediately. No matter how bad you are, In the future, life in Dali will not be better than that of the leaders of other tribes, and we must have some face."

In fact, there is no practical benefit to this, but it still makes Du Yongchang feel happy.

Their Xinding tribe is weak, and in the past, he, Du Yongchang, often got angry in front of the leaders of the other tribes.If you can exhale and raise your eyebrows, how can it not be a pleasure?

This somewhat relieved the resentment in his heart.

Being the first to surrender must be regarded as an example, and there are still some advantages.

After the banquet, Liu Zhuwen really wrote a letter immediately, and asked people to send it to Ziqi urgently, and then to the imperial city of Changsha.

……

Jiangling Mansion, Jinghu North Road.

In the past few days, people from the rivers and lakes have entered the city one after another.

Such as Tianshi Daoyuan Zhenzi and others, as well as masters from all over the world, because of the long distance, they finally failed to catch up with the Jiangling Mansion battle.

No one thought that before they arrived, Su Quandang would be able to defeat Yeluzhu.

However, Yuan Zhenzi and others finally arrived at the Jiangling mansion and did not go back to Mount Heng directly.

Now that you've come, you can't come in vain.

In the past few days, those Jianghu sects around Jiangling Mansion who are related to the rioters and wanted by the Song Dynasty government have suffered disaster.

Before, they were still able to deal with government officials and defenders, but many masters of the rivers and lakes that have emerged in the past few days have killed them to the ground.

One by one sects have been wiped out since then.

Of course, this was done by Tianshidao and other righteous Jianghu masters.

And after killing those wanted masters, it was natural for them to enter Jiangling Mansion.Because of killing these people, the government office of Jiangling Prefecture has a bounty.

Although people like Yuan Zhenzi may not care about these bounties, more or less, they also have the idea of ​​giving Tian Shidao a long face.

They are not really needless.Otherwise, the Hengshan Heavenly Master Dao would not be able to have the current scene of incense.

This made the post-war Jiangling Mansion suddenly much more lively.

And on this day, Huang Liujia led the worshipers from Wuding Hall to Jiangling Mansion.

In the case of many righteous men in the rivers and lakes taking action, he led the people to sweep Jingbei Road in a hurry these days.The progress of destroying those chaotic Jianghu sects was far faster than he thought.

Finally, when they got around the Jiangling mansion, they couldn't even eat leftovers.

This made Huang Liujia both pleasantly surprised and astonished.

He never thought that the Empress Empress summoning Jianghu masters to help Jiangling Mansion would have such a chain reaction.

And he was only at the Upper Yuan Realm. If it weren't for these masters of the Jianghu, it would have taken a lot of effort to destroy so many Jianghu sects in the Jinghu North Road.

Huang Liujia led people into the Jiangling Mansion to see what kind of righteous men from the rivers and lakes would help the court to eradicate the rebellious sects.At the same time, I also want to see if I can recruit some more masters for Wu Dingtang.
