The commander of the 13th Infantry Army of the Qing army was Lieutenant General Zheng Gaoxiang, and the commander of the 14th Infantry Army was Lieutenant General Yu Wanqing. Both were originally admirals of the Qing Dynasty. After the formation of the new army, they were promoted to the commanders of the infantry army because of their ability to lead troops. Although they became the commander of the lieutenant general and were already senior generals in the Qing army, they were not satisfied with this position. Because they were Han people and were guarded by the Qing Dynasty everywhere. The immediate superior Senggelinqin did not regard them as Senior generals came to treat it. In addition, after becoming the lieutenant general, they could no longer interfere in local affairs, which was equivalent to cutting off their wealth. For the two people who were used to plundering in the local area, it would be better to continue to be admirals in the local area. In addition, during this battle, Senggelinqin completely used their two armies as cannon fodder, which made them even more dissatisfied with the Qing Dynasty and Senggelinqin. It was normal to develop a rebellious heart in times of crisis.

"Brother Zheng, do you think those rebel bandits can agree to our conditions? I always feel a little uneasy." Lieutenant General Yu Wanqing said with some concern. After all, they were all senior officials of the Qing Dynasty. Now they surrender to the enemy at the fortitude. I don't know whether the Chinese Empire can accept them.

"Brother Yu, how do I know? But for our wealth and life, we can only take the risk of fighting! Now we have no other way, so we can continue to follow the Qing Dynasty. Obviously, there is no way to survive, so we should find a wise ruler as soon as possible! Although the emperor of the Chinese Empire is not old, in just a few years, he can develop the south so well, and even foreigners are no match for the Chinese Empire. Eight out of ten, the world will soon be from the south." Lieutenant General Zheng Gaoxiang said.

"Well, Brother Zheng is right. But since the south is already so powerful, will they accept our surrender? Will they accept us?" Lieutenant General Yu Wanqing said. The envoys they sent were with their conditions. The two hoped that the Chinese Empire could accept them. As long as the Chinese Empire promised not to harm their lives, not to confiscate their property, and give them high officials and generous salaries, they agreed to lead the remaining 50,000 people from the 13th Infantry Army and the 14th Infantry Army to surrender to the Chinese Empire.

"Who knows? However, we just asked for a price to pay back the money. I guess it is unlikely to become an official again. The officialdom of the Chinese Empire is different from that of the Qing Dynasty. If you want to extend your hands everywhere, it is impossible. Such an official is meaningless in front of you. As long as the Chinese Empire can promise not to hold us accountable and exempt us from punishment, it is thank God. Moreover, with our savings over the years, we can live our second half of our lives comfortably. What's the point? What's wrong? In addition, the industry and commerce of the Chinese Empire were very developed. With our family background, we might get rich returns. In the Chinese Empire, the status of merchants was not as good as that of the Qing Dynasty. So, I'm ready. If I can't continue to be an official, it would be good to go to business." Zheng Gaoxiang said. He was more open-minded and didn't have to continue to be an official. As long as the Chinese Empire could let them go and not confiscate their property, he would be satisfied.

"I'm right, I haven't seen it clearly yet. As I said, the officials of the Chinese Empire cannot be like this or that, and they are too restricted. It's better to be a rich man and be free and easy. I hope the Chinese Empire can agree with our conditions!" Lieutenant General Yu Wanqing also said. After more than two thousand years of feudal rule, the Chinese people have always had the plot of becoming officials, "Everything is inferior, only high school students." As expected, studying and becoming an official is placed in the most important position, believing that this is the person who has a successful career. This gradually made the entire nation fall into a vicious circle of pursuing officialdom and power, and the development of the nation is slower and slower, and gradually from the most powerful country in the world to a country that is bullied by others.

"By the way, brother, if we surrender to the Chinese Empire, what should our family do? Our wives, children, and the whole family is hundreds of people, but the power is in Beijing! If we surrender, the Qing Dynasty will definitely not let them go!" Lieutenant General Yu Wanqing said with some concern.

"Brother, I'm ready. If the limelight is wrong, they will hide in the embassy area in time. Even the Qing Dynasty will not dare to do anything to them. As for you, you will have to ask the Chinese Empire for help. However, you are still young now, so why should you have a real man without a wife? As long as you can save your life, are you still afraid of not having a wife or a child in the future?" Lieutenant General Zheng Gaoxiang said.

Lieutenant General Yu Wanqing nodded with a gloomy face. He could only pray that his wife, children and children would be fine. However, as Lieutenant General Zheng Gaoxiang said, he is only more than 40 people now and can marry and have children again. As long as he can save his life, with his huge deposits in foreign banks, he is enough for him to spend the rest of his life rich.

The envoy sent by Lieutenant General Zheng Gaoxiang and Lieutenant General Yu Wanqing was the adjutant of Lieutenant General Zheng Gaoxiang and his confidant, named Chen Ziqing, over thirty years old and with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel of the Qing army. He has been following Zheng Gaoxiang for more than ten years and has always been loyal to Lieutenant General Zheng Gaoxiang. Therefore, he will do his job when negotiating with the Chinese Empire.

Lieutenant Colonel Chen Ziqing and several guards quietly crossed the defense line. Before arriving at the defense line of the Imperial Army, he drove out the white flag. After expressing his purpose, they were soon sent to the Imperial Army's command center. The Imperial Army's battle in Henan was still commanded by Major General Liu Zhongming, Deputy Minister of the Operations Department of the General Staff. Now the attack on the Qing army has reached the most critical moment, so he also appeared in the front command center. Beside him were Major General Zhao Mingfu, the commander of the 5th Army, and Major General Du Lide, the commander of the 2nd Army.

"I have seen several generals!" After Lieutenant Colonel Chen Ziqing saw Major General Liu Zhongming and others, he immediately saluted respectfully.

"No need to be polite, just tell me what you are doing!" Major General Liu Zhongming said. Now is the critical moment to siege the Qing army, and he doesn't have so much time to waste. If the remaining troops of the Qing army's 13th Infantry Army and the 14th Infantry Army could surrender, it would be the best. Of course, even if they did not surrender, this would be nothing for the Imperial Army, it would be nothing more than to waste their hands and feet.

"General, our General Zheng and General Yu, although they are senior generals of the Qing Dynasty, have always been in Cao's camp and are in the Han Dynasty. This time, the imperial army went north and defeated the Qing Dynasty. Zheng Jianjiang and General Yu were extremely happy. They have been looking for opportunities to break away from the Qing Dynasty and return to the orthodox of our Han family. Therefore, Zheng Jianjiang and General Yu will send me to meet the generals this time." Lieutenant Colonel Chen Ziqing said.

"Hmph! What's in Cao's camp and heart in Han is simply bullshit. Didn't you work very hard when attacking Runing? I think you saw that the Qing Dynasty was about to collapse, so you started to find a way out!" Major General Zhao Mingfu, the commander of the 5th Army, mercilessly exposed it. When the 5th Army defended Runing, they killed a lot of Qing troops. However, how many of these Qing troops were Han people! So many of the lives of so many compatriots were because of the Qing Dynasty, which naturally made him look good at these Qing generals.

Lieutenant Colonel Chen Ziqing's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed. The other party exposed his words directly, which made him feel a little ashamed. This was obvious. If it weren't for the lack of hope for the Qing Dynasty, how could Zheng Gaoxiang and Yu Wanqing give up their current glory and wealth?

"We are naturally happy to see the surrender of General Zheng and General Yu. We are willing to accept your surrender. Go back and tell them both of you and immediately organize troops to hand over weapons to us!" Major General Liu Zhongming said. Being able to deal with more than 50,000 Qing people without bloodshed is also very good for the Imperial Army. In this way, they can focus all their energy on the cavalry troops of the Qing army.

"General, there is no problem in surrendering to the Chinese Empire. However, we General Zheng and General Yu are still a little worried." Lieutenant Colonel Chen Ziqing said. If the Chinese Empire crosses the river and destroys the bridge and kills the donkey, they will not even cry.

"Oh? Why? You aren't you going to surrender? Are there any conditions left?" Major General Du Lide, the commander of the 2nd Army of the Imperial Army, said with a smile. They had long known about the shameless performance of these Qing generals.

"Yes, Lord General. It's not that we General Zheng and General Yu do not believe in the Chinese Empire, but because of the wealth and life of so many brothers, we have to be more cautious!" said Lieutenant Colonel Chen Ziqing.

"Okay, what are your conditions? Tell me all! Let's think about it first." Major General Liu Zhongming said.

"Yes, General Zheng and General Yu hope to contribute their own strength to the Chinese Empire. Not to mention anything else, the tens of thousands of soldiers under their command hope to continue to be led by them." Lieutenant Colonel Chen Ziqing said.

"No, this is absolutely not possible! The ability of Zheng Gaoxiang and Yu Wanqing is not enough to serve as senior generals. In addition, the style of the two of them is not suitable for being an official in the empire at all. We will not agree to this request!" Major General Liu Zhongming immediately refused after hearing this condition. The empire had long known the senior generals of the Qing Dynasty. When they were admirals, they imposed heavy taxes and bullied the people. If they were allowed to serve as officials of the empire, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the empire?
