The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Chapter 118: Surrender One Hundred Thousand Troops
After a fierce psychological struggle, Li Jing finally chose to surrender to Li Chengdao.

Even Jia Xu himself found it incredible that he successfully persuaded Li Jing to surrender.

But he didn't know that Wei Zheng had already planted seeds in Li Jing's heart before, and Li Shimin's recent actions had disappointed Li Jing. Coupled with Jia Xu's sincere persuasion just now, Li Jing finally decided to surrender to Li Chengdao.

Because he understood that if he did not surrender and Li Chengdao attacked the city, both sides would suffer huge casualties, which would greatly deplete the Tang Dynasty's national power.

Li Jing and Wei Zheng are very similar. They both pay attention to the interests of the country and consider things from the national perspective.

Li Chengdao is better than Li Shimin and younger, with unlimited possibilities for the future. The most important thing is that he sees in Li Chengdao the magnanimity that Li Shimin has now lost.

The bearing of a monarch.

Li Chengdao never thought of using Turks to weaken or kill Li Shimin at any time, but Li Shimin did so. This is the difference in the temperament between the two.

And this basically led to Li Jing's decision to seek refuge with Li Chengdao.

"Li Shuai understands justice well and Jia admires him."

Jia Xu suppressed the joy in his heart, saluted Li Jing, and then asked: "Li Shuai, I wonder how many of the 20 defenders in the city can surrender with you?"

Although Li Jing, as the commander-in-chief, could command an army of 20, if he surrendered Li Chengdao, it would be a question of whether the 20 troops would listen to his orders.

"Half of the generals in the army are under Li. Li is confident that he can get at least [-] troops to join His Highness, but the rest..."

Li Jing's face showed hesitation, and the meaning was obvious.

After a moment of hesitation, Li Jing continued: "Your Highness, please hold your troops for the time being. In a few days, Li will move all his trusted generals to the major city gates, and then His Highness's army will be released into the city."

"As for the remaining generals and soldiers...please allow me to try to persuade them to surrender."

Hearing Li Jing's words, Jia Xu was overjoyed. At least [-] troops surrendered!This is close to half of their troops!

You must know that Li Chengdao's army, including the Jingzhou Army, only has 16 troops.

"Don't worry, Marshal Li. I will tell His Highness. Then I will wait for good news from Marshal Li."

"Farewell."

After Jia Xu bowed his hands and saluted, he said goodbye and left, turning around and walking out of the handsome tent.

Li Jing looked at Jia Xu's back and couldn't help but sigh, but it felt like a heavy burden had been lifted off his heart.

After all, there is no need to let the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty kill each other.

……

After Jia Xu walked out of the commander's tent, many generals waiting outside the commander's tent cast angry looks at him.

Jia Xu was in a good mood at this time and smiled at them one by one in return. This made many generals unbelievable.

After Jia Xu left, the generals couldn't wait to walk into the commander's tent.

"Commander, that guy didn't do anything untoward to you, right?"

Hou Junji asked, taking a good look at Li Jing for a while, and then felt relieved after confirming that he was not injured.

Li Jing smiled and said, "It's nothing. Li Chengdao sent him to persuade me to surrender."

"Persuade to surrender?"

All the generals looked strange when they heard this.Cheng Yaojin was the first to burst into laughter and said, "I thought he was going to say something important and actually asked us to surrender? It's really ridiculous, hahahaha!"

Many generals burst into laughter, but only Hou Junji looked at the smiling Li Jing and frowned slightly unnoticeably.

……

After Jia Xu returned to the White Robe Army's garrison, he rushed to the commander's tent as soon as possible and told Li Chengdao the news of successfully persuading Li Jing to surrender.

When Li Chengdao and the generals heard the news, they were all shocked and dumbfounded.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations to Your Highness! Another great help!"

Xue Wanche was very excited and said excitedly to Li Chengdao.

"Weizhou City is already within our grasp!"

Feng Li also laughed loudly, his eyes full of excitement.

Even though Luo Yi heard the news of Li Jing's surrender from Jia Xu with his own ears, he still found it unbelievable.

"Li Jing, the No. 1 commander of the Tang Dynasty and a man of great military exploits... actually surrendered?"

Luo Yi felt like he was dreaming.

He never thought that a famous general like Li Jing would actually be persuaded to surrender. This was as incredible as a fantasy, but it was true.

After some fuss, Li Chengdao asked: "Wenhe, what are the arrangements for Li Jing?"

Jia Xu said: "He asked me to wait for a few days. He will let his generals take control of the major city gates. At that time, the army will enter the city. At the same time, he said he would try to persuade the other generals to surrender."

"Ah, very good."

Li Chengdao nodded after hearing this. It would be great if he could persuade the other generals to surrender and draw all the 20 troops to his side.

If we have this 20-strong army, it will be just around the corner to conquer Chang'an!
"This article has made a great contribution to you. You can choose any reward you want afterwards, and I will not be stingy."

Li Chengdao said with a smile that Jia Xu was definitely the first to conquer Weizhou City!
"The reward will be waived. I don't like worldly things. And thanks to Wei Gong who persuaded Li Jing to surrender before, I was able to succeed in one fell swoop."

As Jia Xu spoke, he couldn't help but look at Yue Fei and said, "But... General Yue, it seems that I am slightly better this time?"

Yue Fei and Jia Xu, a military general and a civil servant, started fighting openly and secretly after the disagreement over the family plan, each trying to outdo each other.

Of course, this kind of competition is healthy, but Jia Xu won this time.

He captured the city of Weizhou effortlessly and got an army of more than [-] for nothing. It was a huge profit!

For Jia Xu, being able to defeat Yue Fei once made him feel happier than any reward.

Yue Fei smiled bitterly, cupped his hands and said, "Yue Mou lost, Mr. Jia is great."

Yue Fei admitted his failure openly and openly. This kind of Yue Fei has an extraordinary magnanimity, which makes people feel respected.

Jia Xu smiled and nodded, feeling very good.

In this way, three days passed quickly.
