Chapter 679: Persuading surrender

"Brother Geng, come, let's drink this cup." After the meeting, Li Tianxing kept Geng Zhongming and Zhao Wei, and prepared a banquet in his luxurious handsome tent to entertain the two of them. The atmosphere between the banquet was very harmonious. Li Tianxing was also a master. He had long felt that Zhao Wei had a domineering aura, and his true energy was surging, and it was hard to match.

"Brother Geng, what do you call this guy?!" Li Tianxing picked up a glass of wine to toast Zhao Wei. Geng Zhongming thought to himself that Zhao Wei is a hero from Guanzhong, with a great reputation and everyone knows it. The fact that he defected to Yi Tusheng must be well-known to many people. If he said his name, Li Tianxing would definitely guess what? Is it time to tell him? After thinking for a while, taking a sip of wine, Geng Zhongming said seriously: "This is a famous young talent in the martial arts world, and the one who is known as Zhao Wei, the one who is known as Zhongzhou Bajian."

"Zhongzhou Bajian Zhao Wei!" Li Tianxing's face changed drastically: "Didn't he surrender to Yi Tusheng? The Zhentian King Li Qingshan just mentioned it to me a few days ago. What's going on?" Zhao Wei bowed slightly and said: "The news about General Li is really well-versed. In Xia Zhao Wei, he is currently working under the account of Yi Tusheng, the regent of the Ming Dynasty."

"Are you Yi Tusheng people?!" Li Tianxing fell to the ground with a slap and stood up immediately: "Brother Geng, what's going on?" Geng Zhongming said sternly: "Brother Li, please be careful, please sit down and listen to me explain it to you slowly." Li Tianxing's eyes rolled a few times, sat down slowly, and sat down silently, just looked at Geng Zhongming with his eyes for a moment, waiting for him to speak.

Geng Zhongming carefully considered the words and said, "Brother Li, you guessed it right. We two are indeed people from the Regent Yi Tusheng." Li Tianxing groaned and slapped the table: "Brother Geng, what is the purpose of coming here today? Don't you know that I have become irreconcilable with the court and Yi Tusheng now." Geng Zhongming said, "Brother Li, I came here for your future and life." Li Tianxing snorted coldly, "Are you two being swept out by Yi Tusheng and come to surrender to me?!" Zhao Wei laughed and said, "Regent Yi Tusheng, with noble character and noble character, wishing to bring all the useful talents in the world to the Internet, how could we sweep us out! General Li, you obviously guessed wrong?!"

"Then what are you here to do?" Li Tianxing blushed, obviously he was really angry. Geng Zhongming said: "Brother Li, I will only ask you one question, do you still want our past affection?!" Li Tianxing said: "I, Li Tianxing, value love and friendship the most. Brother Geng used to take care of me, so how can I forget it!" Geng Zhongming said: "That's good, then I won't beat around the bush." ​​Li Tianxing sighed: "Brother Geng, please say anything!"

Geng Zhongming pondered, "Actually, I came to your camp to persuade you to surrender." Li Tianxing widened his eyes and looked at Geng Zhongming. He was about to get angry, but suddenly thought of something, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Forget it, this kind of plot has been everywhere throughout the ages. Although he is an enemy country, it does not hinder your and my friends' relationship. Zhou Yu can even entertain Jiang Gan. Can I, Li Tianxing, entertain Brother Geng?"

"Everyone is an enemy country? Hahahaha, Brother Li, what you said is too unconsiderable. You are clearly ministers of the Ming Dynasty, so why are they "enemy country" each other?!" Li Tianxing shook his head and smiled, "Why should Brother Geng ask, Brother Geng knows that I, Li Tianxing, have long since left the Ming Dynasty and become king. If you want to dominate this world, how can you still be considered a minister of the Ming Dynasty!" Geng Zhongming said, "Dominate the country? Brother Li, do you really think so?"

Li Tianxing said proudly: "A man and a man stand between heaven and earth. He naturally have to do a grand and vigorous cause before he can live up to his life. I, Li Tianxing, hold a million soldiers in his hand and a thousand miles away. It is the moment of great achievements. Don't Brother Geng think so? Brother Geng, under Yi Tusheng's account, you are just an ordinary general. It is better to come to me to fight side by side with me. With the talents of the two of us, let alone dominate one side, even if you plan to plan the Central Plains and achieve the career of the emperor, it is not impossible."

"Hey, Brother Li, you're very wrong. To be honest, I came to persuade you to surrender in name, but in fact, my real purpose is to save your life."

Li Tianxing sneered, "You mean, I am not a match for the court!" Geng Zhongming nodded, "You only know that you have hundreds of thousands of powerful soldiers in your hand, but you don't know how powerful the Regent Yi Tusheng is. Have you never heard of the Regent's conquests and destruction of countless countries in recent years, and even the Western countries were stationed by them. Which of those countries is not a powerful existence? However, under the thunderous means of the Regent's, they have collapsed and survived in several years. How about you ask yourself how better than them?"

Li Tianxing said: "I have heard of Yi Tusheng's power, but he only dealt with a small and wild country. He can no longer control the situation now." Geng Zhongming said: "Why can't it be controlled?!" Li Tianxing said: "The Ming Dynasty court was corrupt and the officials were greedy, which forced the people into a desperate situation. The soldiers under Yi Tusheng were all from ordinary people. The relatives of these soldiers either starved to death or were forced to death by the officials of the court. Think about it, how could they still be able to die for Yi Tusheng? Killing Westerners is the same thing, and killing one's own people is another thing!"

Zhao Wei said: "General Li is not to hide it from it. Originally, I had the same view as you. I even assassinated the Regent a few days ago, but now I have completely changed my opinion. You said that the imperial court is corrupt, I will never deny that the morale of the Regent's troops is scattered and unsustainable. This is definitely a big mistake. Since the Regent's entry into Guanzhong, he has provided great merits to provide relief to the victims and distributed money and food. All the people applauded. Wherever the Regent's army went, the people welcomed them with pots of food and slurry. There were countless people who volunteered to join the army, and their morale was like a rainbow, and they were unparalleled. Although your military appearance was strong, it was definitely not a match for the Regent. It was better to look back as soon as possible."

Geng Zhongming said: "Brother Li just now, you said that a real man should make achievements and achieve hegemony, and I agree with this. However, to achieve hegemony, it is not necessarily the only way to be an enemy of the court. Not to mention that you are difficult to win, even if you are reluctant to win, do you see if the rivers and mountains in front of you are devastated and the people are displaced, and the regent said to me: If Li Tianxing is willing to follow the court and the civil strife in the future, the regent will be considered a Western man for the second time. If you make military achievements, you can reward the Western countries and let you rule. Where you are king and dominate and sing and dancing, will it be a pleasure? Wouldn't it be better to live in this ruined country?"
