Chapter 97 97
"The country of Yue no longer exists, and you are now taking refuge in me, it is not considered a betrayal of your country!" Qi Xiaobai said to Wang Heng.
"If Qi Yue is at war, your surrender is considered a betrayal of the country, but Yue Guo is no longer there, and Yue Hui Gong is no longer a duke!"
"General, I advise you to cherish life, you are still young, you will have great achievements in the future, why should you die for a country that no longer exists?" Qi Xiaobai persuaded on the side.
Qi Xiaobai wants to take this Wang Heng as his own usefulness, after all, this Wang Heng is a person from a military family, and if he can worship as the general of the Yue Kingdom, his talent will definitely be recognized, and more importantly, as a senior general of the Yue Kingdom, he must know the training methods of the Yue dancers.
Qi Xiaobai didn't plan to create a Yue Dancer, the legion he wanted to create was an elite legion far beyond the Yue Dancers, and such a legion would also absorb the training of the major legions of various countries.
Listening to Qi Xiaobai's words, Wang Heng was indeed a little shaken, Yue Guo was gone, what was he still guarding?
"Is Yue Gong really alive?" Wang Heng looked at Qi Xiaobai and asked.
"My Qi country and Yue Guo have made an alliance under the city, my Qi country is honest, saying that it will not hurt Yue Huigong, of course it did not hurt Yue Huigong, but sent Yue Huigong to Luoyang!" Qi Xiaobai said to Wang Heng.
"Follow me, as long as you can make a war exploit for me, I promise you to be the general of the Qi country!" Qi Xiaobai said to Wang Heng.
General was the highest military rank in the vassal states of the Zhou Empire, but it was not an official or military position.
"Of course, it is also possible to be a marquis!" Qi Xiaobai tempted again.
Wang Heng pondered, he was tempted, Yue Guo was gone, and joining Qi Xiaobai might not be a bad choice.
Wang Heng still has great ambitions, his original ambition was to make contributions to the Yue country, and to sit firmly in the position of general in the Yue country, which is nothing more than to make himself have a higher honor and a higher status, he can pursue these in the Yue country, why can't he pursue these in the Qi country?
Of course, people talk about loyalty, but the Yue country is no longer there, what is the point of him being loyal to the Yue country?
People are indeed loyal, but they can't pay attention to foolish loyalty, even if he surrenders to Qi now, this is not a traitor, and he is not a traitor, after all, he did not surrender in wartime, and he is not known how many times better than Wuli.
"The general must think clearly, there is still a long way ahead, and it is still a bright road!" Qi Xiaobai tempted on the side, he firmly believed that he could convince this Wang Heng.
And Qi Xiaobaijue's own words are very reasonable, it is indeed a pity that a person dies like this.
Of course, if Wang Heng is determined to be loyal to Yue Guo and die for Yue Guo this time, he will give Wang Heng a knife to fulfill Wang Heng's dream of loyalty to the king.
"I'm not in a hurry, I'm here waiting for you to think about it, I hope your answer will satisfy you and satisfy me at the same time!" Qi Xiaobai said flatly, and then a prison guard brought Qi Xiaobai fruit and tea and put them on a table in the prison.
"Make a cup of tea for General Wang!" Qi Xiaobai said to the prison guards.
Then Qi Xiaobai picked up a fruit and threw it to Wei Dexian: "Here you go!" ”
"Xie Huangong!" Wei Dexian hurriedly said.
"What is the thanks, outside we are kings and ministers, but here, we can say friends!" Qi Xiaobai said to Wei Dexian.
Qi Xiaobai actually values this Wei Dexian very much, after all, Wei Dexian followed him all the way, Qi Xiaobai's most intimate confidant.
About an hour later, Wang Heng knelt on the ground: "The minister is willing to go to the soup for Duke Qi Huan!" ”
After hearing Wang Heng's words, Qi Xiaobai nodded: "The general's choice is correct, and the general will not regret his choice in the future!" ”
"The Yue Kingdom has perished, and the minister just wants to do something, and he doesn't want to waste his knowledge!" Wang Heng said to Qi Xiaobai.
After Qi Xiaobai took Wang Heng out of the prison, he then brought him into the palace and asked the imperial chefs of the palace to cook him a sumptuous dinner.
"The general has been suffering in his cell these days!" Qi Xiaobai said to Wang Heng.
"The general of the defeated army deserves this kind of punishment, the prince didn't kill me, I'm already very grateful!" Wang Heng said to Qi Xiaobai.
In fact, Wang Heng's choice to take refuge in Qi Xiaobai was also very determined, after all, for a defeated general, it was indeed very embarrassing to be alive.
In the struggle for hegemony between the vassal states, generally failing, and the generals who do not kill themselves will basically be scolded a lot, of course, if you fail, if you can still fight back, it is good to justify your name.
But all the way to defeat, there is no victory, generally only self-killing, otherwise you will return to your homeland and be humiliated, of course, you can also choose to surrender, but no country is willing to reuse the vassals.
After all, if you can surrender to me, it is inevitable that you will not surrender to others in the future?
If it weren't for Qi Xiaobai saying that he would reuse him, he Wang Heng would not have surrendered, because if he survived, he would be humiliated, so it was better to die for the country and win a good reputation.
Of course, he also firmly believes that Qi Xiaobai will reuse him, otherwise Qi Xiaobai will not personally come to recruit him, Qi Xiaobai's personal stay is enough to prove how much Qi Xiaobai attaches importance to him.
Qi Xiaobai reuses him, so as long as he gives full play to his talents in the future and does not fail, then he can still become a famous general and still leave an immortal reputation in the history books.
Of course, his surrender to the Qi State will be recorded, but he believes that as long as he makes great contributions in the future, this stain will be easily crossed.
"Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, failure is not terrible, what is terrible is failure, dare not start over!" Qi Xiaobai said to Wang Heng.
In war, there will be winners and losers, defeat is not terrible, what is terrible is that after defeat, it will collapse.
"A failure is a failure, and I will not make excuses for my failure!" Wang Heng said to Qi Xiaobai.
Qi Xiaobai just nodded: "You eat well, after eating, I still have important things to discuss with you!" ”
Wang Heng nodded, these days, Wang Heng is indeed hungry in the prison, after all, the food in the prison is very poor, they only care if you starve to death, instead of being full and well-fed.
"I'm full!" Wang Heng said to Qi Xiaobai.
Qi Xiaobai nodded: "Then come to my study, let's discuss something important, and it's also the first big thing I let you do!" ”
Wang Heng nodded and followed Qi Xiaobai to the study!
Qi Xiaobai told Wang Heng that he wanted to build a legion, Qi Xiaobai hoped that Wang Heng could train him this legion, of course, this legion will also be led by Wang Heng in the future, this legion will not only be able to make achievements for Qi Xiaobai in the future, but also for the country of Qi, it is also related to Wang Heng's promotion road, of course, you can always be promoted if you bring it well, if you bring out a waste, then you Wang Heng, basically......
