Sui and Tang Dynasties: At the beginning, Mrs. Li ran away from relatives

If it was a death for the survival of the entire army, he would hardly hesitate.

"The old general doesn't have to think about us, as long as you choose, we will definitely follow

As if seeing the change in the old general's expression, Yao Junsu took a step forward and said.

"Yes, even if you starve to death, we will admit it."

"Yeah, so you can continue to follow the old general."

"Haha, even if the Han army comes, we will not be afraid. We will fight to the last moment."

The Sui soldiers who were present spoke one after another, and their eyes sparkled.

"you..."

Qu Tutong's old eyes were obviously red, he took a deep look at the soldiers, and then looked away.

These soldiers have given their lives to themselves.

"Half success."

Du Ruhui at the side watched all this quietly.

He was not surprised by the reaction of these Sui troops. It was totally worthwhile for Qu Tutong to love soldiers like sons in exchange for these.

Of course, he will not be in a hurry, the more this is the case, the more likely the other party will agree to surrender.

"We listened to the old general. If we want to fight, we will continue to fight."

After many Xiaoguo guards and Zuo Lingjun spoke, more soldiers stood up one after another.

"These soldiers can give their lives to me, how can I not protect them well?"

Qu Tutong looked around, as if he was taking note of everyone's faces, and firmness could be seen from their faces.

It was precisely because of the soldiers who gave their lives to himself that he needed to protect them all the more.

Instead of letting them go to a dead end with themselves and die here together.

It may be to starve to death, or to go out of the city to die, this kind of death is not worth it.

"Crack..."

Qu Tutong clenched his fist tightly and let out bursts of explosive noises.

His original intention was that he would rather die here than surrender, but for these soldiers, he needed to make a difficult choice.No, it should be a correct choice instead of letting them die together in a pedantic way.

"Whoo!"

Qu Tutong suddenly made a decision, took a deep breath, and walked towards Du Ruhui with heavy steps.

The steps looked heavy, just like the mood at this time.

Seeing this, the rest of the Sui army stood up, and the whole scene became extremely oppressive.

"The final result is coming."

Even though Du Ruhui was a literati, he still maintained his calmness in such situations.

"The old man can surrender to the Han army, but there is a request that must be agreed."

Qu Tutong admired the other party, if it was an ordinary messenger, he would have been frightened to death.

Immediately, he walked quickly to Du Ruhui.

"I can only return to the Han army, there is no other way."

In fact, Qu Tutong decided to surrender to the Han army instead of the Tang army who went south.

The reason is simple, the Han army is a rebel army, and the Tang army headed by Li Yuan is a traitor.

Not long after the emperor's expedition, the other party began to rebel, which made Taiyuan's supply route unable to be used.

As a result, I and many Sui troops, with their current fate, wished to make Li Yuan a thousand swords, how could it be possible to surrender to the other party.

"The old general may wish to speak directly."

To this, Du Ruhui continued to reply.

"Old General..."

The Sui soldiers all cried out in confusion, according to the temperament of the old general, shouldn't he fight to the death?

"Needless to say, didn't you say you would follow to the death?"

Turning his head, Qu Tutong said in a deep voice.

"promise!"

Yao Junsu yelled loudly, his eyes were red with tears rolling in his eyes.

However, he was trying his best to restrain the tears from flowing out. The old general changed his principles for them.

The rest of the Sui army was undoubtedly full of emotions.

"After surrendering to your Han army, I will fight the Tang army."

As he said that, the murderous intent in Qu Tutong's eyes suddenly became intense.

He especially hated Li Yuan, a rebellious minister and traitor who took the imperial salary and conspired to rebel.I thought about going to war with the Tang army before, but because Pu Ban couldn't afford to lose, he couldn't leave here at all.Now that you have decided to join the Han army, you must fight the Tang army.

Zhao...

Du Ruhui was stunned for a moment, is this a request?

To be honest, the two families of Cao and Li turned against each other. From the time when the king attacked Li Jiancheng and others, it was a matter of time before they fought against the Tang army.

"it is good."

Without even thinking about it, Du Ruhui directly agreed.

"Yes, hit Tang Jun!"

Yao Junsu led the rest of the Sui army and shouted.

From the previous actions, we can see how prestige Qu Tutong has in the army. Since he chose to surrender, let alone the rest of the Sui army.

All of a sudden, everyone shouted continuously, and morale became high.

"Okay, old general, I will go back and report to the king first."

Now that he succeeded in persuading the other party to surrender, Du Ruhui has no intention of staying.

"Okay, please."

This was necessary, and Qu Tutong, who had no objections, began to prepare to welcome the Han army into the city.

But Du Ruhui returned the same way and brought relevant news back to the Han army.

"See Your Majesty."

When seeing the king, Du Ruhui saluted first.

"Excuse me (cebg), what's the situation?"

Seeing that the courtier came back unscathed, Cao Feng knew it was done, and said accordingly.

"I don't know what's going on?"

The rest of the civil and military officials looked over, wondering whether the stubborn Qu Tutong would surrender under such circumstances.

"Veteran Qu Tutong chose to surrender, but he made a request to fight Tang Jun."

Du Ruhui said truthfully.

After that, he told about Qu Tutong's surrender from beginning to end.

"Unexpectedly, this old general chose to join the Han army for the sake of the soldiers under his command."

Li Jing listened to the whole process of persuading to surrender, and said with some emotion.

"Yeah, without this level of consideration, I'm afraid it would not be so easy to join."

Changsun Wuji followed suit.

"Your Majesty, in this way, Qu Tutong's loyalty will be guaranteed."

At this time, Yue Fei said suddenly.

"good."

Cao Feng nodded his head.

In fact, Qu Tutong's stubborn character alone is enough to prove this point.

"What Pengju said makes sense."

The return of the veteran Qu Tutong, the civil and military presence still admired him very much. He deserves to be an old general who loves soldiers like a son.No wonder he has such high prestige in the army. As long as he is sure to surrender, all the Sui troops under his command will naturally surrender.

"Okay, without further ado, the whole army is stationed in Puban."

Cao Feng waved his long sleeves and spoke.

promise.

Then, the expeditionary army began to assemble and quickly advanced towards Puban

As for the three Li Jiancheng who were detained in the prison, they were naturally taken there.

"What is this for?"

Li Jiancheng said suspiciously when carrying the Wei infantry back and bringing a few people out of the prison.

They only came to Sangquan City not long ago, why did they want to move again?

"Go, hurry up."

The generals of the Han army certainly wouldn't talk too much, they just pushed their prison carts and followed the army closely.

"Is this going to Pusaka?

Followed for a distance,

Dou Wei exclaimed.

"This is unlikely, is it?"

Wang Wuyi's expression changed, and he couldn't believe it.

How long did it take for the Han army to break through Puban?

"No, it's impossible!

In the next second, Wang Wuyi threw this idea out of his mind.

"The Han army entered Puban so quickly. There is only one possibility. The Sui army chose to surrender."

Li Jiancheng, who is not stupid, said firmly.

"Is that unlikely?"

I heard that the expressions of Dou Wei and Wang Wuyi were even more exciting.

Who doesn't know, the old general's character is extremely stubborn, does it mean that he will surrender if he says he will surrender?

The difficulty of persuading this person to surrender is no less than letting them go to heaven for the three of them.

"Drive...drive..."

As soon as the army arrived at Puban, the city gate opened immediately.

"The Sui army has really surrendered. What should our army do? We are completely stuck on our way to the south."

Until then, several people had no choice but to believe that Qu Tutong really surrendered.

In addition to being surprised, they were deeply worried about the future of their side.

Puban was easily taken down, so how should we face the Han army that has already occupied the important ground?

"Ugh."

All of a sudden, the three of them were worried, and they were all silent.

When they entered the city, the three were imprisoned in Puban's prison.

"The old minister sees the king."
