"I have been a general for ten years, and I have been disappointed with expectations and expectations. I have exhausted all my strength."

As he spoke, Liu Jiye held the sword upside down and wiped it from his own neck.

"Young General, you can't die!"

"The young general is a general of the Yang family in Linzhou. The descendants of the Liu family have already surrendered. Why should you, an outsider, be buried with them?"

While he was talking, he saw that several of his most trusted soldiers were already holding him down with all their hands and feet, unable to break free at all.

"Let me go! You... if you want to live, just go out of the city to survive. Zhao Kuangmei, the young hero, will not be held accountable. Why do you stop me? What do you stop me from!"

"Now that the Northern Han Dynasty has been destroyed, the Young General represents the Yang family of Linzhou. Young General, are you going to abandon the two prefectures of Linfu and ignore the lives of hundreds of thousands of villagers and elders!"

These soldiers are not stupid. As the saying goes, arrogant soldiers drive away commanders, and strong generals drive away kings. This has been a common practice in the Five Dynasties. Why can you drive others away, but you, Liu Jiye, can't be driven away?

You, Liu Jiye, are Liu Chong’s grandson, and you are loyal to the Northern Han Dynasty, which is not the case for the rest of us.

At a young age, we join the army to earn a living and support our families. At a more serious level, wasn't the purpose of sending you to Taiyuan just to find a backer for Linzhou Prefecture? How come you have forgotten your original intention?

At this time, even a fool can see that Zhou Jun attaches great importance to Liu Jiye. If Liu Jiye voted for Zhao Kuangmei, you will definitely be reused in the future. Even if it is impossible for you to be demoted to General Jijie in the short term, you will be the first level of defense envoy and command envoy. It is still very possible to become a general.

If we follow you, we will become the commander's confidants, and we may have some future.

But if you die and we surrender, it’s hard to say whether we can be selected into the Forbidden Army, or we might just be assigned to Li Yun as the Zhaoyi Army.

How can you die so easily?

You really don’t understand what the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms are.

In fact, few of the soldiers who followed Liu Jiye at Yanmen Gate had the same thoughts as him. The Yang family soldiers from Linzhou wanted to follow the young master. Their interests were actually more complicated, and those other soldiers , if you think about it, you will simply defect to Khitan.

In fact, these people are relatively close to the Khitan and get close to each other on weekdays. The reason why they are unwilling to surrender is because they are afraid of being liquidated afterwards.

As a result, it turned out to be like this by mistake. This battle was almost turning into an exhibition match. The stupid ones went out to surrender after Yanmen closed the door, but those who didn't go out were no fools anymore.

In a moment, a large number of people were seen kneeling on the city tower. Everyone threw away their weapons, kowtowed to the ground, and cried loudly with their eyes red.

"You don't care if the general wants to abandon me?"

"The general has exhausted his efforts to this point, and he is already worthy of the word loyalty. However, the general abandoned us and died alone. Dare I ask the general, is he worthy of the word righteousness?"

Each one seemed to be self-taught, and the big hat was slapped on Liu Jiye's head, which made Liu Jiye stunned.

While he was struggling, he saw Zhe Deku and Yang Chongxun walking up the city gate through Yanmenguan. Zhe Deku was the first to shout: "Get him away!"

Upon seeing this, all the soldiers let go.

Then, without saying anything, Zhe Deqian slapped Liu Jiye in the face with a big mouth.

"Are you giving up your ancestors just to have a godfather? Yang Chonggui (Yang Ye's birth name), do you still remember who your biological father is?"

"I..."

He slapped him again, and Zhe De said: "Let me ask you, why do my Zheyang family have to be loyal to the Central Plains Dynasty for generations?"

"Yes... because the Li family of Xiazhou and our family have been mortal enemies for eternity. The Li family is strong and the Zheyang family is weak and cannot fight independently. Therefore, we have no choice but to submit to the Central Plains Dynasty for generations to seek reinforcements.

”

"Who is behind the Xiazhou Li family?"

"It's Khitan."

"Who is behind Beihan?"

"Yes...it's also Khitan."

"In the past twenty years, the Khitan has been trying to move its prefecture after taking over the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun. The population of the two prefectures is small, and it is only through the concerted efforts of the residents of our two prefectures that we can defeat the Khitan. However, the Khitan has been instigating these years.

The Northern Han Dynasty invaded our state capital. As the son of Linzhou, do you want to recognize the thief as your father?"

"I..."

Zhe Deke didn't listen to Liu Jiye's excuse at all. He waved his hand and said loudly: "The two prefectures of Linfu are a small place. To the west is the Li family of Xiazhou, who has a blood feud with us, and to the south are the six tribes of Tubo.

, they are all barbarians and bandits, and they have been invading the border for a long time. To the north is the Khitan and Liao Dynasties, who want to move to the two prefectures and kill them all. Hundreds of thousands of people in the two prefectures just want to live. Who can we rely on?"

"We can only be loyal to the east and surrender to...the Central Plains Dynasty."

"I sent you to Taiyuan originally to submit to the Central Plains Dynasty, but look at you now, what are you doing!"

Zhe De started to slap Liu Jiye's big mouth, as if he was just trying to vent his anger.

He was so satisfied with the beating that Liu Jiye was already beaten into a pig's head, so he put his forehead against Liu Jiye's forehead and said almost through gritted teeth:

"The only way for the two states of Lin Prefecture to survive lies in the Central Plains Dynasty. Now the Central Plains Dynasty is about to change its dynasty. National policies and border defenses may not all have to be re-established. I heard that the Li family of Xiazhou also has the intention of becoming a minister. If I can't trust you, the people of the two prefectures will...

What will happen?"

"Zhao Kuangyin wears a yellow robe, and the market is not easy to run. It has a new atmosphere that has not been seen since the end of the Tang Dynasty. The plan is very big, and loyal and righteous people must be valued. For your sake, Zhao Kuangmei did not hesitate to suspend the war for three days. He specially invited me and your brother here. This will last for thousands of years."

This is a rare opportunity. If you join the court as a general, you will definitely hold our two governments behind. If you are put into important use, the next time the Li family or the Khitan attack again, the reinforcements from the Central Plains will come faster."<

"I understand your thoughts on the matter of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor, but does Mr. Liu have any kindness to you? Have you repaid the kindness of your parents in giving birth? You have lived twenty-eight years, but you have done it once.

Is it something beneficial to my hometown and my family?"

On the side, Yang Chongxun also sighed and said: "Everyone in the world knows that you are loyal and loyal, but they only know that I am capricious. Brother, when the Northern Han Dynasty was first established, I surrendered to you. Didn't I do this for you? However, Dang Xiang Li

When the attack came, where were you people? Have you ever

Leading soldiers to come to the rescue? Am I willing to be this capricious villain who rebels but surrenders again? Do you know how much I, the Yang family, and even the entire Linzhou Prefecture have paid for this matter? My death was in vain.

How many people are there? People can’t be too selfish.”

Zhe Deku also said: "We have said all the good and bad things. Think about these brothers under your command, think about your family members, think about the folks in Linfu and two states. If you insist on dying if you throw it away, I will also

It’s up to you, just think that I don’t have you as my son-in-law, and your father never gave birth to you as my son.”

"I..."
