Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Baihu's focus was on the soldiers of Daxi.

When he saw everyone sitting on the ground in despair, even throwing their weapons aside, he smiled.

"General Liu, execute the second step of the plan!"

Baihu closed the telescope.

"Order!"

Liu Tiaoyuan laughed loudly, waved his hand and said boldly:

"Brothers, follow me!"

The soldiers who had just arrived at Zhuge Temple and had not even had time to take a breath returned towards the original route...

But no one complained.

Even the civilian husbands were armed!

And the other side.

Wang Guangen has also led his army towards the camp under the leadership of another Jin Yiwei.

Wang Guangtai also got off the hill where he was hiding, and headed in the other direction of the camp to encircle them.

……

The sound of hoofs came.

Li Dingguo's expression changed drastically, and he roared loudly, trying to get the soldiers to form a defensive formation.

however……

Without grabbing food, Daxi's soldiers no longer had the will to fight.

No matter how Li Dingguo and Feng Shuangli drove them, the soldiers only moved their buttocks slightly and changed their places to lie down...

Only two of the hundred or ten personal guards were able to stand up...

The sound of hooves is getting closer!

There were even rumbles of hooves coming from all directions.

Obviously, the Ming army not only returned again, but also surrounded the camp.

Li Dingguo was in a hurry and was about to leave with his soldiers.

Suddenly, a loud laugh came from outside the camp.

"General Li Dingguo, I am Li Gensheng, a member of the Jinyi Guards.

I wonder if General Li would be willing to interview Mr. "

"The [-] Imperial Guards of the Central Institute of the Five Core Institutes?"

Li Dingguo's eyes widened.

Feng Shuangli was also full of surprise.

In addition to the North and South Town Fusi, there are twelve Jinyiwei.

Each school has a direct leader of one thousand households.

This is the trusted armed force that belongs directly to the emperor.

Although Jin Yiwei is large in scale, the most important ones are the central, front, rear, left and right stations.

These five institutes can be said to be the emperor's hardcore confidants and the core strength of Jin Yiwei.

Especially Zhongsuo!

There are twelve schools of Jinyiwei, and the middle school is the first.

Feng Shuangli whispered:

"Second Master, the Zhongsuo is the emperor's personal army.

A hundred households here are even more favored than a thousand households in the latter seven.

Emperor Ming sent hundreds of households from Zhongsuo to arrive, this..."

Feng Shuangli was stunned.

This is like Zhu Youjian sending the eunuchs and eunuchs who are the ceremonial supervisors around him - exactly the same!

Li Dingguo had calmed down. He looked at the two corpses at his feet and sighed:

"Brother Feng, I'm afraid...

You and I have fallen into Emperor Ming’s trap! "

Li Dingguo's words shocked Feng Shuangli.

Looking at the bodies of Xu Qiyuan and Chen Wanjia at their feet, and then looking at the grains of soil everywhere...

Feng Shuangli figured it out.

He frowned, and the long knife in his hand loosened and tightened:

"Second Master, this..."

“It’s a blessing not a curse!

Let’s see what he said! "

Li Dingguo grabbed his sword and strode out of the camp.

Outside the camp, the Ming army had surrounded the huge camp.

Swords, guns, swords and sticks were pointed at the camp.

It was cold.

however……

One by one, Daxi's soldiers squatted on the side with their heads down, no longer thinking about resisting.

When they saw Li Dingguo coming out, the soldiers even turned their faces away and did not dare to look at him.

Li Dingguo glanced at everyone and sighed slightly:

"This is Li Dingguo!"

Li Dingguo bowed his hand to the leader Li Gensheng.

"Brother Li, His Majesty has asked me to convey something to you. I wonder if Brother Li would be willing to listen to it?"

Li Gensheng had no idea that the two sides were hostile. He looked at Li Dingguo as if he were looking at an old brother.

"Ugh!"

Li Dingguo sighed.

He threw the sword aside casually:

"Li is a defeated general. Does he still have the right to choose?"

What else can I do?

People have surrounded the camp.

Countless muskets were pointed at him.

Does he still have the right to refuse?

At this point, Li Dingguo could only listen to Emperor Ming's words.

"Your Majesty's word!"

Li Gensheng cupped his hands toward the east and continued:

"Your Majesty asked:

Li Dingguo, are you loyal to the Han family or Zhang Xianzhong? "

"I……"

Li Dingguo moved his lips and after spitting out one word, he could no longer say the following words.

He is not a foolish and loyal person.

In his heart, the Han family and the world are the most important!

Li Dingguo does not want to deceive himself and others...

"Nonsense, of course we will be loyal to the Emperor of the Western Kingdom!"

Feng Shuangli replied, holding his neck and standing in front of Li Dingguo with the knife in hand.

Li Gensheng didn't think so.

Li Dingguo's attitude has already explained the problem.

He continued:

"Your Majesty asks again:

The country was in ruins, the Eastern captives entered the pass, and billions of people turned into withered bones.

Now, Li Dingguo, you have seen the truth clearly, and you are touching your conscience——

But choose to fight for the glory of the Han family?

Or is it for the selfish interests of one family and one surname, disregarding the survival of the Han family and the life and death of the people of the Ming Dynasty? "

"I……"

Li Dingguo lowered his head.

What happened to the people in Northern Zhili...

He heard it!

Countless Taoist masters in Fuqiu Mountain, for the sake of their family, country and the world, holding a three-foot green sword in their hands, rushed towards Donglu's cavalry like moths to a flame, a tragic and heroic scene...

He heard about it too!

In order to save the people in the north and forgive Li Zicheng's sins, Zhu Youjian made Li Zicheng the king of Dashun and asked him to move to the northwest, thus burying the hatchet and working together to protect our Han family...

He also heard about it!

……

How to choose?

The balance in Li Dingguo's heart has tilted...

Feng Shuangli also lost his pride.

The long knife held vertically in his hand and across his chest was hanging on the ground...

Li Gensheng's words made him shake his head and sigh.

Emperor Ming’s question was so sharp!

He could not tell the self-deceptive answer without conscience.

……

Li Gensheng took in everything, but continued to ask:

"Your Majesty also asked:

I was trapped in the Forbidden City, scrimping on food and clothing in order to serve the common people. In the past 17 years, I have not even bought a new piece of clothing.

But all the powerful gentry in the world should be killed!

Regardless of natural and man-made disasters and the hardships of the people, they resorted to plunder and plunder.

Not only did he take the money and food that I had repeatedly allocated from internal funds for disaster relief, he took it as his own...

He not only knocks bones and sucks marrow, but only for his own prosperity and wealth...

Even more so, he did not hesitate to betray his ancestors, harm the country, welcome the Eastern captives into the pass, and harm our people!

General Li was born among the people, and he knew well the sufferings of the people and the faces of the officials...

After ten years in the military, he has seen through the truth of officialdom.

I ask General Li - even if I am guilty, I have already corrected myself.

In fact, I scrimped on food and clothing, even at the expense of the infamy, and used work to provide relief, which saved more than [-] million people...

Today, I am willing to pardon Daxi Kingdom, from Zhang Xianzhong to ordinary soldiers, for their crimes of rebellion.

Nor am I pursuing Zhang Xianzhong for destroying my ancestral tomb.

I am willing to settle the feud with Zhang Xianzhong!

If Zhang Xianzhong is willing to surrender, he will not hesitate to be a prince!

Can General Lee be used by the country? "
