"Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian..."

The main force of the Xia army was cleaning up the battlefield, and Zhang Hua summoned Zhu Youjian, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youjian looked lonely. When his ability and ambition were not proportional, Zhu Youjian suffered repeated failures and felt deeply tired.

In order to save the lives of Ming soldiers and besieged by the Xia army, Zhu Youjian chose to surrender.

"His Majesty!"

After Lu Xiangsheng, Qin Liangyu and other Ming generals were captured, they all sobbed when they saw Zhu Youjian surrender.

"The Ming Dynasty was not short of loyal ministers, nor was there any lack of evil people."

Zhang Hua recruited loyal ministers such as Yu Qian, Zhang Huangyan, and met Lu Xiangsheng and Qin Liangyu, who were loyal to Emperor Chongzhen, and also saw Zu Dashou, Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi and others who rebelled against the Ming Dynasty. It can only be said that the difference between people is even greater than that between people and dogs.

"If the Ming Dynasty cannot be rebuilt and the unification of China is also an option."

Zhu Youjian was moved by Zhang Huangyan and said this to Zhang Hua.

"In the late Ming Dynasty, it was difficult to return to the problem, and the faults were difficult to distinguish. Since you led your troops to surrender and promoted the unification of the troubled times, I will give you the title of Marquis of Guiyi."

Zhang Hua conferred all the surrendered princes, such as Prince Fusu, Zhu Youjian, Wei Si and others as the Marquis of Guiyi and enjoyed the salary of the court, but had no real power, which was a preferential treatment for their surrender.

As long as there is no military power, these princes can only be rich and enjoy their old age.

"Lu Xiangsheng, Qin Liangyu, Li Wenzhong, Zhu Youjian has already returned to the right. You might as well serve me and pacify the world as soon as possible to end the troubled times."

Not only was Zhu Youjian captured alive, but three famous Ming generals under Zhu Youjian were also captured alive by Zhang Hua's troops.

"Ah, things have come to this point, how dare you not surrender for the sake of justice?"

Once Zhu Youjian surrendered, Lu Xiangsheng had no reason to fight, and Zhang Hua gave justice again, so Lu Xiangsheng had to surrender.

Qin Liangyu pursed her lips, her expression changed and she was hesitant in her heart.

"I heard that Huang Taiji, Dorgon and others fled to Liaodong. At that time, I plan to take you as generals and lead troops from Qingzhou to attack Huang Taiji and Dorgon. What do you think?"

Zhang Hua used Zhu Youjian's hatred against Huang Taiji and Dorgon to stimulate Qin Liangyu.

Sure enough, when talking about the Jianzhou Jurchens, Qin Liangyu looked warlike and said: "I can serve you."

"If you can get the two generals to serve, the world can be settled."

Zhang Hua left no effort to flatter the two of them.

Lu Xiangsheng and Qin Liangyu all have special military branches, one is the Tianxiong Army and the other is the Baishan Army.

These two are both loyal and brave generals. It is not easy to be loyal to them, but once they are loyal, they will basically not betray them.

Lu Xiangsheng sighed: "If King Xia can wipe out the world and prevent the people from suffering from war, then I would rather die than do my part."

"Where is Duke Cao?"

Zhang Hua looked at Li Wenzhong, Duke Cao of the Ming Dynasty again.

"I can't obey my duty."

Li Wenzhong refused to surrender.

"But for Zhu Yuanzhang?"

“That’s right.”

"I can understand, I'm sorry for the time being."

"Thank you, King Xia."

Zhang Hua can understand why Li Wenzhong is not like Lu Xiangsheng and Qin Liangyu.

Lu Xiangsheng and Qin Liangyu were military generals in the Chongzhen Dynasty, while Li Wenzhong was the nephew of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding ancestor of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang's power still exists, so Li Wenzhong cannot become an official and fight against Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhang Hua had no choice but to detain Li Wenzhong for the time being.

"The Qi State is defeated by Qi, and I am willing to lead the people of Qi to surrender to the wise ruler."

King Wei of Qi led the civil and military officials of Qi, including Sun Bin, Zou Ji, Yan Zi, Sima Rangju, Kuang Zhang, Tian Ji, Tian Pan, etc., and was forced to surrender.

The retreat of the Qi army has been cut off. Even if we barely return to the capital of Linzi, with Linzi's troops and sluggish morale, it will be difficult to resist the Xia army's troops.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, King Wei of Qi had to surrender.

"There are still 130,000 troops in Qi's army."

King Wei of Qi handed over the national seal, and explained the number of troops left by the Qi army.

Qi was the overlord of Shandong. It originally had hundreds of thousands of troops, strong and famous generals, but until now, there were only 130,000 soldiers and horses left. You can imagine how much the loss of Qi was.

Qi State can no longer fight.

King Wei of Qi chose to surrender, and it was also carefully considered.

"Qi's lineup is really luxurious, but it lacks a group of powerful generals."

Zhang Hua took over the seal of Qi State presented by King Wei of Qi and scandaled the civil officials and military officials behind King Wei of Qi.

Although he has not checked the attribute panel of the Qi State people yet, he can already roughly know the abilities of these Qi State generals.

Sun Bin's wisdom is known as the magical calculation, and is no less than that of Wang Meng, Li Ji, Zhuge Liang, Zhao Pu, Wang Shouren and other top-notch strategists.

Zou Ji and Yan Zi were first-class civil officials, Sima Rangju, Kuang Zhang, Tian Ji and Tian Pan were all famous generals of Qi.

Sima Rangju is a big shot in the military ranks, but unfortunately he lost because he did not have enough troops, and the general was not as good as Zhang Hua to attack Qi.

Sima Rangju was ridden by a group of fierce generals and could not resist it.

All 130,000 Qi troops were incorporated by Zhang Hua.

According to convention, Zhang Hua named King Wei of Qi as the Marquis of Guiyi.

Zhuge Liang, Zhao Pu and others selected officials from Qi State, and then arranged officials loyal to Zhang Hua in various cities of Qi State, digested the territory of Qi State, and completely incorporated Qi State into the territory.

"The last general was defeated and captured, and he is willing to take the crime!"

When the Qi army surrendered, Pang Juan, a famous general who was captured by the Qi army, took the initiative to apologize to Zhang Hua for his guilt.

The Xia army won a great victory, but Pang Juan was wiped out in the battle here. It can be said that it was a headwind for a person, and Pang Juan felt deeply ashamed.

"Your opponent is Sun Bin, who is from his fellow disciple. It is not embarrassing to lose. Thinking of your past contributions, you will make up for your mistakes, and you will not be punished or rewarded."

"Thank you lord!"

Pang Juan was ashamed and it would be fine if he didn't receive punishment, so he naturally could not seek rewards.

Pang Juan looked at his fellow disciple Sun Bin with a somewhat awe-inspiring look.

Now that things have come, Pang Juan also knows that he can never be Sun Bin's opponent. Every time he fights Sun Bin, Pang Juan will be played with by Sun Bin in his palm.

Zhang Hua led his troops into Linzi, the capital of Qi, and counted the population books and issued an edict to obtain dozens of cities and towns in Qi.

The Western Chu army retreated to Pengcheng, and the land of Qi and Lu was completely occupied by Zhang Hua.

The sphere of influence of Chu State was compressed in Xuzhou.

On the sea of ​​Qingzhou, a navy from Jiangdong was ordered to support Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian, and the flags of the Ming army were clamored in the sea breeze.

This Ming army navy had thousands of warships and hundreds of thousands of armored men.

Zhu Youjian's Ming army was an extension of the Ming forces in Qingzhou, and this was also an opportunity for the Ming forces to annex Qingzhou.

However, when this Ming navy arrived in Qingzhou, Qi surrendered and the news that Zhu Youjian was captured alive came. The Ming general was shocked and had to order his return to Jiangdong and returned in vain.

The general of the Ming army murmured to himself: "I, Xu Da, come one step later. It seems that Zhang Hua will become His Majesty's powerful enemy..."
