Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 742 This is a fraudulent surrender

For Zheng Song, the patriarch of the Zheng family in the post-Annan Li Dynasty, March and April in the ninth year of Wanli were really the darkest two months in his life.

He changed from a national hero who defeated the assistant king of the Mo Dynasty in the First World War to a bereaved dog who lost his teacher and land, fled in embarrassment, and even ended up at the end of his life.

The ups and downs in life are too great for him to bear.

But Zheng Song was Zheng Song after all, the Annan lord in history who forcibly wiped out the Mo Dynasty by relying on the foundation of Tsinghua Nhean. Even though he knew that he was doomed this time, he still had to fight to the death.

But the so-called fight to the death does not refer to the mindless taking more than 3 remnants of defeated soldiers to head-to-head against the highly pragmatic [-] troops. Even at the risk of death!
Even if you can't turn defeat into victory, at least you have to make the invading enemy pay a higher price.

This is what Zheng Song wants to do and is doing now.

He first quietly killed the two principals who participated in the assassination of Gao Yushi, cut off their heads, and sent someone to send them to Gao Yushi. He also presented his letter of repentance and surrender form, claiming that he had been deceived by lard at the time. Sending people to Guangxi to stir up the relationship between Daming and Mo Chao made it impossible for Mo Chao to go south with all his strength, but it was true that these idiots did not make such "an act of mutual anger between man and god".

But now that the big mistake has been made, he doesn't dare to ask for forgiveness. He just asks Gao to not make any more big moves for the sake of "Annan Lishu has been in war for decades, and there has not been a single day of peace". He is willing "The head of the prisoner walks in the north of the capital city of Ying, and presents Li Ni in front of the platform", and also "prostrates and worships, offering the land to the heaven; kowtowing again and again, presenting the nationality to Zhizhi."

In a word: Surrender.

And it was a surrender that was a hundred times more sincere than that of Mo Dengyong back then—Mo Dengyong's surrender was surrender. vassal".

That means, if I surrender to surrender, I still have to be a vassal, otherwise there is no talk.

But Zheng Song is much more straightforward here. He also knows that Daming regards him as a traitor, and he has no hope of being a vassal. , as if no matter how high pragmatism handles it.

When the assassin's head, Zheng Song's confession letter and surrender form were sent to Qinghua, Gao Wushi was preparing to send troops south tomorrow.But Zheng Song's surrender was sent in an upright manner, and it spread all over the city of Qinghua at once, and it couldn't be covered up.

Now Gao Wuzhen is not only a patrol officer in Guangxi, but with Ruan Binglian's endorsement, he is also a "great Confucian of the Celestial Dynasty" who represents the great scholars of the Ming Dynasty. You must follow the rules and etiquette to meet Zheng Song's envoy.

The envoy was a minister of the Hou Li Dynasty, and it is said that he was a erudite Confucianist, but Gao Wushi was not interested in him, he just received him in a business-like manner, asked some nonsense according to the usual practice throughout the ages, and then sent him off to rest .

From beginning to end, Gao Wushi did not express whether he would accept Zheng Song's surrender.

After the envoys of the Later Li Dynasty retreated, the generals under Gao Yushi's command—whether it was the chieftain of Guangxi or the surrender of the Mo Dynasty, all of them were smiling.

Wouldn't it be a great thing to take Nghe An over without fighting?The traitors of the Li family finally bowed to the great power of Ming Ming this time, whether it is for the chieftain who is waiting to go back to "dividend the dividend", or for the Mo family who hates Li Ni and Zheng Ni to the bone, they are all overjoyed.

What's more, with Nghe An established, there is nothing more to do for Ruan Huang in Hue, and it is nothing more than the result of offering land and begging for surrender.

Annan is so determined!

But everyone was happy for a while, only to find that Gao Sengtai just sat there expressionless, showing no emotion at all, and couldn't help being stunned.

Huang Zhiting asked: "Why are you unhappy about pressing the stage?"

Everyone also looked suspicious, obviously this sentence also asked what they were thinking.

Gao Wushi said indifferently: "Zheng Song wants to kill me, why should I be happy?"

Everyone was taken aback, Cen Ling frowned and said, "According to the table, you mean that Zheng Song is feigning surrender?"

Gao Wushi remained expressionless and asked, "Do you all think he is not a false surrender?"

"This..." Cen Ling was at a loss for words.

Ruan Youliao said: "The Zheng family is now at the end of the road. Zheng Song's surrender at this time should be his best choice. Why do you think he is a false surrender?"

Gao Wushi chuckled, but there was no smile on his face, and he said indifferently: "His letter of surrender is well written, and the meaning expressed in humility and respect is quite admirable, people are the most precious... But, This should not represent the fact that he has surrendered."

Gao Wushi pointed at the surrender form and said, "Just take a look, where is he going to surrender?"

Isn’t this nonsense? It’s written clearly in the surrender form, “The head of the prisoner walks in the north of Yingdu City, and consecrates Li Ni to the front of the platform.” It means that as soon as the platform arrives in Yingdu, he will go out of the city to the north gate. Surrender, and not only he surrendered, he would also sacrifice Li Ni.

You see, the Zheng family has supported Li Ni for decades, and now Zheng Song doesn't want him anymore, and even calls him Li Ni, isn't that a sincere surrender?

Who knew that Gao Wushi smiled coldly and asked, "Surrender? Surrender is not allowed anywhere. It has to be in the capital of Yingdu? Or does he have to go there in person before he is willing to surrender?"

Only then did everyone discover such a detail, and they couldn't help but think to themselves: Yes, why can surrender only be in the capital of Yingdu?
At this time, Gao Wushi interjected again: "Besides, he is the one who asked to surrender now. Logically speaking, shouldn't it be him who took the initiative to bring Jiang Biao, Li Ni and others, Qingche Jian came to Qinghua to see Ben Zong?"

He said coldly: "So no matter how nice this letter of surrender is, it is nothing more than Zheng Ni's words to deceive people. What he really wants to do is to take advantage of the unpreparedness in the capital of Yingdu to suddenly attack. Sneak attack on this press, and even our army!"

Huang Zhiting was furious, and her brows stood on end: "It's an unforgivable crime for you to dare to do this!"

Cen Ling was also startled into a cold sweat, and said angrily: "Mr. Zheng Song, you dare to do such a treasonous act when you are about to die. You are really stubborn and looking for your own death! Press the platform, the next official asks for orders to fight, and he will definitely win the platform!" Yingdu, present the head of the traitor Zheng in front of the platform!"

Ruan Youliao was dumbfounded, his heart was cold, and he thought to himself: Is it true that Prime Minister Right is planning this?It's over, this high-ranking platform not only has sharp eyes, but also has a careful heart. Under such circumstances, he has not lost his composure, and suddenly discovered the right minister's plan... But what should we do now?
In fact, there is no need for Ruan Youliao to worry, because all the chieftains in Guangxi are furious and have called for a fight. What they say is really more ruthless than the other. If he is dead, I am afraid that all the things he promised before will come to nothing. This enmity is even worse than the enmity of killing his father!

The Mo family's ministers and generals were also impassioned. They searched their brains and turned up all the curse words they could think of, and sprayed Zheng Song as worthless... These words are too polite. In fact, in their mouths, Zheng Song has already committed a heinous crime and is full of crimes. For such an unrepentant traitor and traitor, not killing is not enough to anger the people, not killing is not enough to uphold the law of heaven!
Well, anyway, it's fine to follow what Gao Sengtai said. It doesn't matter whether Zheng Song surrendered for real or falsely.

Gao Yantai followed the advice like a stream, and immediately said that the army would still act according to the original plan, but...

Where Zheng Song is, he can use his tricks instead.
