Chapter 1210 Song Rui surrenders (2)

The imperial guards under his command were already seriously damaged, and they were also the foundation of Duan Qilin, so it was impossible for him to stay here to cut off the rear.

He could not afford such a guilty crime.

Fortunately, after he knew his feelings and moved him to reason, Song Ruili knew that even though he was dying, he still agreed to his request.

But he didn't know that at this moment, Song Ruili, with a huge earlobe, was watching the army go away at the city gate, but his expression was also deep.

He was not as outstanding as Chi Fenggu in Guigu Academy, and Wang Zigan was so outstanding. Before Duan Qilin ascended the throne, he was sent to Xiushan County to serve.

At the beginning, he should have wanted to make achievements and become famous. Even when Zhang Jue Zhenzhen Military Region attacked Li, he led the army to resist.

Only then, when the general manager of Xiushan County Zhao Liangcai hurriedly handed over the command of the army to him when the army was defeated, he went down to the city to arrange his family and property.

This time, he didn't expect that he would get the job of breaking the post again.

It would be obvious that Song Ruili had no complaints in his heart.

In terms of knowledge, he dare not say that he is better than Chi Fenggu, but he is always much better than the mediocre and incompetent Zhao Liangcai.

Song Ruili watched Chi Fenggu lead the army gradually fading away, raised his hand and looked at the blue sky.

The scorching sun made him squint his eyes slightly.

Some tears appeared in his eyes, and he murmured to himself, "Dali, it's over..."

He didn't think Duan Qilin would have any strength to deal with the Song army after these Dali troops returned to China. Perhaps it would be quite difficult to be able to suppress the tribes in the country.

In the battle of Xiushan City, he led the crowd to the end and led only more than a thousand people to escape from the city with Zhao Liangcai.

That time, Zhao Liangcai took him to the emperor and was condemned by Duan Xingzhi. But then, he turned the blame off on him who was unable to turn the tide.

This made him still only hold his original position after Duan Qilin ascended the throne and did not receive any promotion.

The general manager of Xiushan County is still Zhao Liangcai.

Now that the descendants are cut off, Song Ruili asked himself whether it is difficult to return to Dali alive. However, the army will inevitably suffer heavy losses. What will happen to Zhao Liangcai at that time?

Even though Duan Qilin knew that he had difficulties, he would not have been afraid of having sex with the old minister Zhao Liangcai for his sake.

Song Ruili could not see any hope of making a comeback.

In the east horizon, many blood-red hot air balloons inlaid with golden dragons appeared in his eyes.

A soldier hurried over and reported, "General! The Song army is coming."

Song Ruili slowly closed his eyes and looked at the head of the city, "Do you... want to live or die?"

The generals changed color slightly.

Everyone can hear what Song Ruili means.

Someone said: "General Song, are you trying to surrender?"

Song Ruili's face was extremely complicated, "The tens of thousands of troops in Chi Fenggu dare not resist these Song troops. We cut off the rear. Do you think it can be stopped? Can you still go back alive?"

"But……"

A general frowned and said, "But our family members are all..."

I think most of these generals have complaints about Chi Fenggu making them cut off their rear.

No one wants to die.

They did not have the awareness of the Song army.

In the past, Dali invested in Yuan, and most of the generals and ministers were dead. The rest were mostly those who would rather survive.

Most of their hearts and natures are left behind.

After all, even now, these soldiers in Dali may not have very high character. Because Dali does not have the factor that allows them to defend to the death.

Duan Qilin's days of ascending the throne were still short, and he could not win people's hearts so quickly.

He and the Lord of Guigu Palace were both too hasty.

Song Ruili said: "If we follow these Song troops to destroy Chi Fenggu's army, no one in the country will be able to resist these Song troops' edges anymore. Zhao Liangcai...he is afraid of death."

The generals' expressions changed again.

They could hear what Song Ruili meant.

If they surrender to the Song Dynasty and the Song army attacked Dali, with Zhao Liangcai's temperament, they would most likely surrender. At that time, they might not dare to do anything to their families.

only……

A general said, "General Song, will these Song troops attack the country?"

Song Ruili said: "The Song army just forced the city in the morning and wanted to force our army to retreat, but now they are in a hurry to attack. Why do you think it is?"

He said, sighing softly, "I didn't understand in the past, but now I understand a little. The Song army can be so invincible and so fearless. They are not just fighting for the Emperor of Song... They are fighting for the people of Song..."

He suddenly laughed at himself, "It's just ridiculous that we are fighting around, but in the end, why are we fighting? Is there a clear answer in your heart?"

All the generals remained silent.

For power...

For the family...

For wealth...

To make a name for thousands of...

After all, how many people are really storming blood for the people?

In the past, when the Song army attacked their Xiushan County, it did not cause any harm to their family. Even if these Xiushan generals wanted to hate the Song army, they could not hate them.

Moreover, the classification of classes in this era was extremely clear.

They are all generals, and they can be said to be nobles. How many people have really taken the people into their hearts?

It’s not that people who care about the people, but that kind of people are only rare after all. At least there are no such people among the people present.

This was the case in the Song Dynasty in the past. Therefore, facing the cavalry of the Yuan Dynasty, many people in the country surrendered, and the Song Dynasty was soon defeated.

And is there any difference between Dali and the Song Dynasty today?

It is true that Duan Qilin is a rare talented emperor, but even he himself has no people as the foundation of enlightenment. How could such generals and ministers in Dali have?

After the silence, a general spoke, "I... would like to obey General Song's order."

Immediately afterwards, more generals bowed their hands to express their opinions.

"Then... lower the flag..."

Song Ruili sighed in a low voice again, then looked up at the sky again.

He was actually still confused inside. After all, he only recognized Duan Qilin as the wise ruler and felt that Duan Qilin might make the world rule. And he worked hard for this, but unfortunately, he was unable to accompany Duan Qilin to the end in this path.

Song Ruili didn't know whether what he did was right or wrong.

Only he had a good relationship with Duan Qilin in the Guigu Academy, so he always felt a little guilty about Duan Qilin.

The Dali military flag on the top of the city slowly fell down, and then it was thrown into the city by the soldiers.

Song Ruili murmured to himself, "Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world... The Academy taught us how to march and fight, but it's a pity that we didn't teach us... why we fight..."

The Song army's hot air balloon came over Hengshan Village.

Then, go above the West Gate.
