The sky gradually brightened, a round of red sun slowly rose, and the sky on the east side of Lishan was red.

Jin Jun, who was sleeping in the past, felt the warmth on his body, slowly opened his eyes, and the soldiers watched the red sun rise in the east, but their hearts were not warmed by the morning sun, and the top of the mountain was dead and silent.

Li Benshen rushed forward lightly and rushed to the south to support, and the soldier had a pot of water and a little dry food on his body, and he had already eaten all of it last night, how could the soldier not despair now.

At the foot of the mountain, the Ming soldiers built a simple fence, and the fire guns with guns were raised to the top of the mountain, and the soldiers of the brigade patrolled along the foot of the mountain with spears, and surrounded the Lishan Mountain.

Wang Pingfan stood on a stone, looked at the Ming army under the mountain, saw the smoke curling, turned his head and walked to the top of the mountain, and came to Li Benshen's side.

"Li Junmen, we are guarding Lishan, there is no point in using, I see that the Ming army under the mountain is making food, it is better to wait for them to eat, rush down the mountain, and see if we can break through!" Wang Pingfan chapped his lips, sat down next to Li Benshen and said.

Li Benshen was wiping the treasure knife in his hand, and he didn't answer when he heard the words, but turned his head to look around, and there were people everywhere with blank expressions, or lying or lying on the Jin soldiers, who had no morale at all. Can such a soldier break out of the encirclement? Li Benshen was skeptical and no longer confident, but their current situation was no different from Ma Tan, and they could only wait for death on the mountain, Li Benshen sighed, and nodded in agreement, "Okay!" Rush it once and give it a try! ”

It was already dawn, and the sound of guns near Lintong stopped in the second half of the night. At this time, there was no artillery sound around, and the Ming army under the mountain was quietly cooking, and did not defend the back at all, which showed that the main force of the Jin army had been defeated, and there may have been no Jin army near Lintong, and they were estimated to have become a lone army trapped in the dead place. In the current situation, they can only break through.

But having said that, in the current situation, not to mention whether they can stand out, even if they can stand out, where should they go and how to calculate, Li Benshen has no clue in his mind.

At this time, a team of cavalry suddenly galloped to the camp of the Ming army at the foot of the mountain, and after a while, the fence of the Ming army was removed, and Li Yuanyin only led two guards out, and then climbed directly to the top of the mountain.

Not far from the top of the mountain, a team of Jin soldiers halfway up the mountain stopped him and stopped him from moving forward, but Li Yuanyin pointed at the Jin soldiers with a horsewhip and said, "Don't you want to live?" ”

Several Jin soldiers obviously knew the current situation, and most of the Ming generals who came up from the mountain were here to surrender, and their faces were full of hesitation.

"I haven't gone to inform you Li Junmen, just say that the old man is here to visit and save the lives of your whole army!" Li Yuanyin shouted again.

The Jin soldiers looked at each other, and one of the leaders suddenly clenched his fists, "This general will wait!" After speaking, he turned around and climbed to the top of the mountain, and soon arrived in front of Li Benshen, and reported with his fists: "Open the military gate, the people who came down from the mountain, said that they were old people from the military gate, and they wanted to save our lives." ”

Li Benshen frowned slightly, Wang Pingfan and He Chengzhi on the side, their faces changed, and He Chengzhi said: "This must be the Ming army coming to surrender." ”

When the surrounding Jin soldiers heard this, they couldn't help but look at them in unison, with some expectation on their faces, but also a little entangled.

The Jin army has been defeated, and the sensible Jin army generals and colonels have realized that the Dajin Kingdom may be destroyed, and for the sake of themselves and their families, they should want to live, but they are a little unwilling to surrender.

The idea of the Jin soldiers was simpler, they didn't like the Ming Dynasty, but they wanted to live, they didn't want to die in the mountains.

Li Benshen saw that the soldiers around him, I don't know when they were all occupied, and they all came over to look at him, he couldn't help but sigh, "Bring it up!" ”

"Li Junmen, you want to ......" He Chengzhi said halfway, but stopped. Wang Pingfan was silent and did not speak.

They eat the money of the Jin country, and they have the responsibility to be loyal to the Jin country, but these more than 10,000 soldiers are just soldiers to eat food, they have fulfilled their responsibilities as soldiers, fought a bloody battle, and now they have been defeated, but they have no responsibility to ask them to die and die for the country.

The soldier listened to Li Benshen's words, his face couldn't help but be happy, he turned around quickly after holding his fists, and then walked down the mountain quickly, and after a short time, he greeted Li Yuanyin.

Li Benshen saw Li Yuanyin, but he was slightly stunned, and said in surprise: "Why are you?" He immediately stood up, stared at Li Yuanyin and said, "Uncle Yuan is so bold, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Gao Jie and Li Chengdong are very close, like brothers, Li Benshen is Gao Jie's nephew, Li Yuanyin is Li Chengdong's righteous son, the two were about the same age when they were in Xuzhou, so they had some intersections and knew each other.

Wang Yan sent Li Yuanyin over, which surprised Li Benshen, but he saw that Wang Yan was thinking about surrendering.

Li Yuanyin said with a smile: "Tens of thousands of troops under the mountain are besieging the top of the mountain, what is there to be afraid of in this town." Besides, even if you don't miss the old love, you have to consider the nearly 10,000 subordinates on the mountain, they all have families, you can't let them all die with me. ”

Li Yuanyin's voice was heroic, his voice was very loud, originally there was only a circle of generals and colonels around, but now the soldiers all stood up, inside and out.

Li Benshen saw that the soldiers had seen it, his nose was heavy, and he said in a deep voice: "What do you want?"

At this time, Li Benshen couldn't open any conditions, and he didn't want to mention any conditions. To be honest, Jin Guo treated him well, this defeat had already made him disheartened, if it weren't for more than 10,000 soldiers, he might not have let Li Yuanyin come up.

"The prison country remembers the old feelings, point to my general, let me persuade you to submit to the Ming Dynasty." Li Yuanyin didn't talk nonsense, sat down on the stone on the side, and then said: "The current situation is very clear, Haoge only led more than ten people to flee to the north bank of Weishui, and it is a foregone conclusion that I will occupy Chang'an and seize Guanzhong." Now that the soldiers and horses under the mountain are under siege, you can't escape at all, let alone reinforcements coming, you don't think about yourself, you should think about 10,000 soldiers. I won't say much, this is a letter from the prison to you, I advise you to submit! ”

Li Benshen sat down on the side, his face was silent for a while, Li Yuanyin took out Wang Yan's letter and handed it to him, and continued: "This is a letter from the prison state to you, as long as you are obedient, the soldiers can unload their armor and return to their hometowns, if the generals are willing to continue to serve in the army, they can go to Nanjing to study martial arts, and then distribute the army."

Li Yuanyin's voice was very loud, he deliberately said it to everyone, and the surrounding Jin soldiers heard it, and they couldn't help but talk about it. Some people believe it, but some people think that the Ming Dynasty will not be so good, but after the heart is deceived and goes down the mountain, let them do hard labor.

Li Benshen hesitated, but still took the letter, he unfolded it and looked at it, the content of the letter did not say any conditions, because these Li Yuanyin would say that Wang Yan wrote some feelings.

Wang Yan said in the letter that he was also a member of Xuzhou Town, lamenting that in the past 15 years, Xuzhou Town has fallen apart, and he, Li Chengdong, Li Yuanyin, and Li Benshen have embarked on different paths for various reasons, drifting in this great era, some have gone the right way, and some have gone astray.

If the reunification is about to be made today, and the various departments of Xuzhou Town have also gone through ups and downs, Wang Yan hopes that after 15 years, the various departments will be able to come together anew, and not kill each other and become enemies of each other......

After reading Wang Yan's letter, Li Benshen couldn't help but be speechless for a long time......

When Li Yuanyin recruited Li Benshen, on the south bank of Weishui, in a crowd, Tang Tong also came in front of a Ming army envoy, but the level was not as high as Li Yuanyin.

Wang Yan sent Li Yuanyin to recruit Li Benshen, a big reason is because it is relatively safe and has a great grasp, even if Li Benshen is unwilling to surrender, he will not kill Li Yuanyin, after all, the two sides have an old relationship, not a hostile relationship between you and your life and death.

Wang Yan destroyed Jin, although the banner was to sweep away Hulu, but the war between the two was actually a war for hegemony, as long as one side was willing to admit defeat, it would be over, and it would not be like the Ming and Manchu Qing Dynasty, a retaliatory massacre, and the hatred between the two sides was not so deep.

did not send a higher level person to recruit Tang Tong, mainly because this guy refused the surrender of the Ming Dynasty before, and killed the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Mingzhen was a little uncertain, so he only sent a messenger.

"Guogong, what did the Ming army say!" There were also a lot of people around Tang Tong, and a general saw Tang Tong looking at Wang Yan's letter, his face was cloudy, and he couldn't help but ask.

Tang Tong had a calm face and handed the letter to the deputy general beside him, "The king of Chu gave conditions to keep us safe, but we need to move our family to Nanjing." ”

"Isn't that house arrest?" Fu Jiang was stunned.

Tang Tong had a miserable smile on his face, "Do we have any other choice now?" ”

······

After the end of the Lintong War, the victory and defeat between Ming and Jin were separated, and the general trend of the Jin Kingdom had gone, which had become a fact. Jin Guo has completely lost the possibility of competing for hegemony in the world, which means that following Jin Guo will have no political future, and Jin Guo is no longer a stage where talents can display their ambitions.

The officials of the Jin State, who were originally difficult to recruit, were shaken ideologically at this time, and not many people were willing to follow a regime with no future and continue to walk.

Of course, there are wavering, and there are stubborn, the Ming army surrendered relatively smoothly on the south bank of Lishan and Weihe, but Liu Zhifu, the Jin general who was trapped in the lagoon, refused to surrender, and after killing himself, more than 3,000 remnants of the town carried his body out to surrender.
