Chapter 585

Lu Xiangsheng wanted to ask the soldiers to die. As a scholar official, reputation is more important than life. Life is a lifetime, but reputation will last forever.

But these ordinary soldiers are different. They have no integrity. Being a soldier is to eat food and earn money to support their family. Now so many people have gone to war with him. Many people have died in other countries, and their bones cannot return home.

Like before, he easily recruited recruits from Daming mansion, but this year, he has been unable to recruit new recruits from Daming, Shunde and Guangping.

Because these people know that being a soldier is very dangerous. Being a soldier is pinning your head on your belt. It's quite dangerous. It's easy to have nothing and never come back. What's the use of making money? They recruited so many people from the Tianxiong army. How many can return home, and which village is not filial and white?

Seeing that the soldiers were no longer ready to fight, he was helpless. He sighed and said: "Dad died and married, let's go with each other? But I will never surrender to Liu thief. I should fight until the last minute and let them know that the imperial court will never yield to Liu thief."

A group of close soldiers and generals around Lu Xiangsheng were very dissatisfied with these soldiers' desire to surrender. They pressed their hands on the handle of the knife. As long as the commander gave an order, they would kill this group of people without hesitation.

But they didn't expect the commander-in-chief to say such words, but this is no exception, because his commander is a man who loves soldiers like a son. He never scolds and treats soldiers badly. Other generals beat soldiers with whips and force them to go to the battlefield. Like their southward trip, it's an act of death, but these soldiers, They all followed him willingly, and none came with a whip or a command.

He Lu Xiangsheng loves soldiers like a son, not bragging, but real. That is, he really loves soldiers like a son. These soldiers will sincerely support him and be willing to fight with him. At this moment, they are at a dead end, defeated and killed, leaving some kindling and leaving some people to go back.

They scolded: "you wolf hearted dogs! Those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, get out now! Tianxiong army doesn't have such cowards."

Since the marshal said so, these soldiers, like being pardoned, threw their weapons one after another without looking back, and ran directly in the direction of Liu Jiajun.

Although it was night, there were a lot of bonfires and torches on both sides. These soldiers rushed to Liu Jiajun's position with empty hands. Liu Jiajun's soldiers did not shoot them, but ordered them to go to the designated position for centralized care.

There were at least more than 6000 soldiers in the camp. Because of the siege, these soldiers had no reinforcements outside and no food inside. They had no fighting spirit at all. Under the inducement and oppression of the Liu family army, most of them chose to surrender. Finally, only Lu Xiangsheng, his more than 100 close soldiers, was willing to follow him and fight to the death.

These are Lu Xiangsheng's confidants. Many of them even come from the Lu family in Changzhou and come from the same place. They are famous all over the world because of the Tianxiong army, recorded in history and honored people. Their honor is not allowed to be stained, that is to say, it is impossible to surrender or escape.

If Yue Fei surrendered and fled, he would not be Yue Fei and could not be famous for thousands of years. Their education since childhood was that fame is more important than life.

Lu Xiangsheng burst into tears. He said loudly, "Lu is lucky to fight side by side with you. However, Lu is not talented and leads you to a dead end. I hope to be brothers in the next life and fight the world together."

When the soldiers heard the marshal say such words, they all burst into tears. They shouted, "be brothers in the next life and fight the world together."

At this moment, their resistance is meaningless. Tens of thousands of troops disappear under the combined fist of Liu Jiajun, not to mention only a hundred of them. They can't defeat each other or escape and break through. If they stay, they are ready to die and serve the country.

Liu Bu personally ordered him to accept the surrender of the Tianxiong army. If the other party laid down their weapons, they can disarm and not kill. They can also pay travel fees to let them go home. They will not force them to join the army, nor will they humiliate them.

Tianxiong military won Liu Bu's respect for their strength. They are a brave army, a warrior army. For these warriors, you can kill him, but you can't humiliate him.

They sent a large number of troops to recruit them. Liu Bu said, "these people are not afraid of what they make when they go back. If they dare to take up arms, we will spend more bullets. If they are willing to surrender, they will save their brothers' hands and feet and do less evil."

This is Liu bu. If he is merciless to JianNu, he will kill one by one and kill one by one. He will never say that he has committed any evil.

But for their own people, the people of the Central Plains, there is no need to kill them. If they have the opportunity, they can open one side and let them live, he will still let them go.

Since Marshal Liu was kind and the soldiers had nothing to say, they went with his orders. Anyway, they stayed one more night. Liu bu also made a commitment to the soldiers. If the other party did not surrender before dawn, they would close the door of surrender, no longer accept their surrender, go all out to attack and level the camp of the whole Tianxiong army, leaving none.

As a result, in only half an hour or so, many Tianxiong Army soldiers unloaded their armor, threw away their weapons, raised their hands and surrendered, and entered their camp. At first, there were dozens of people, but later, there was an endless stream. Whole rows of people began to raise their hands and enter Liu Jiajun's camp.

The soldiers of Tianxiong army no longer wore armor and didn't even bring weapons. Holding up their hands, they nervously entered Liu Jiajun's camp. They were very embarrassed. Many people were hungry and cold, trembling all over.

On the one hand, they trembled because they were hungry, on the other hand, they were worried and afraid. Although Liu Jiajun had no precedent for killing prisoners and had a very good reputation, many people were worried that Liu Jiajun would go back on his word.

Because they have made hands with Liu Jiajun for several days, fought many wars and killed many people of the other party. If the other party repents and wants to kill them, they are now unarmed and do not wear armor. They are just lambs to be slaughtered. They die more oppressed and cowardly. It is better to die in a fierce war.

However, these people are a little worried. Although they enter the temporary resettlement camp of Liu Jiajun with some embarrassment and uneasiness, after they enter the camp, they begin to distribute a bowl of hot porridge, and everyone can get a bowl of hot porridge or hot soup.

These behaviors are reassuring, because the current food is very expensive. To put it mildly, food is more expensive than life. In many places, a stone of food can be exchanged for a yellow flower girl. Since Liu Jiajun is willing to spend food on them, he won't kill them.

These soldiers are not as fastidious as officials. They let them have a full meal before killing. First, they don't pay attention to it. Second, they don't have such conditions. They can't eat enough and give it back to others?

Shi Zheng Yang Shun, one of the generals who followed Liu Bu from Fushan, was responsible for taking care of these prisoners of war here. He was responsible for leading an army to take care of the soldiers of Tianxiong army.

Liu bu also spoke. If the other party is willing to cooperate, don't make trouble, give them food, and then pay the toll to let them go home. Don't be soft if you dare to make trouble.

Yang Shun is an excellent general and has fought for several years. Seeing these embarrassed soldiers, he thinks of himself in those years. He could be an ordinary soldier who participated in the Wuqiao mutiny and returned from the rest of the hundred battles. However, since he followed Liu Bu, he has been promoted to the rank of chief soldier in just a few years and saw these embarrassed soldiers, They all think of themselves.

Yang Shun said loudly to the prisoners: "God has the virtue of living a good life. My Liu family has always been compassionate. Even if I was a rich family in those years, I gave up all my possessions to help the refugees. Now that you have surrendered, you must abide by the military regulations of my Liu family army. In time, you will pay the road fare and return to your hometown. If you dare to spread rumors and make trouble and resist my Liu family army, we will not be soft."

Yang Shun said these words openly. This is called courtesy before soldiers, villains before gentlemen, so that the other party will not think that they will have to be served by high officials and rich salaries, good wine and good food after surrender. Liu Jiajun is asking them to surrender, and he doesn't want these people to be Liu's soldiers again. He just keeps the meaning that God has the virtue of living a good life and less killing evils, so as to let them go home.

Yang Shun was an official and a boss. Since he spoke here, these soldiers began to feel at ease. They expressed their willingness to cooperate and abide by Liu Jiajun's military discipline and rules.

Liu Bu secretly ordered people to count the number of these surrendered soldiers. Finally, it was determined that there were at least 5500 soldiers. They laid down their weapons and entered the Liu family army's prisoner of war camp. Finally, more than 100 people such as Lu Xiangsheng guarded the camp. They moved antlers, horses and other weapons to form a small position to resist the final impact of the Liu family army.

Of course, they knew that they could not resist the attack of Liu Jiajun in any case. What they did was just a statement that they would never surrender to them until the last minute.

Liu Bu thought it was a pity for him. He also wanted to recruit Lu Xiangsheng. His men also suggested to him that they could consider a long-term siege and recruit this person. This person is very capable. If they recruit him, it will make Liu Jiajun even more powerful. It's not surprising that they can recruit such a powerful person as sun chuanting and recruit Lu Xiangsheng What's the matter.

Liu Bu flatly rejected the general's proposal. He knew that Lu Xiangsheng was a man who paid attention to integrity and would never surrender. To surrender such a man was an insult to him.

Lu Xiangsheng is their enemy, but there is no doubt that he is a warrior. You can't kill a warrior. Liu preached, "let's give him a ride?"
