Xu Wei, who was standing at the front on horseback, after hearing Hu Yunqing's order, quickly signaled to the people below not to take action.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Hu Yunqing seems to have some acquaintance with this rebel.
"Lao Yuan, who is this person?"
Xu Wei looked at the people coming out and asked Yuan Chonghuan next to him suspiciously.
After all, Yuan Chonghuan is the person who is most familiar with Hu Yunqing here. He often stands by his side and already knows some things better than himself.
Li Zicheng was the leader of the rebel army, and Xu Wei had never seen him before. In previous battles between the two armies, they were always crushed by large armies. I have never seen Li Zicheng at all.
"This is Li Zicheng, the leader of the rebel army!"
Yuan Chonghuan stared at Li Zicheng. Although he admired him very much, he had to be wary, fearing that the other party would coerce the emperor to order the princes like he did before.
"Li Zicheng!"
"Li Zicheng! If you don't want to, please dismount and surrender! Drive!"
When Xu Wei heard that the person was Li Zicheng, he pointed the spear at Li Zicheng and shouted.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The army all over the mountains and plains also made a sound like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.
If an ordinary person saw this formation, he would be so frightened that he peed his pants.
Li Zicheng had seen big scenes before, so he didn't panic at all and walked towards Hu Yunqing calmly.
Hu Yunqing was also riding forward. It didn't matter if Hu Yunqing didn't move. The generals behind him were startled when he moved.
"Sir, be careful of the other party cheating!"
Yuan Chonghuan was the first to speak. Knowing that Li Zicheng had some skills, he quickly rode over to remind him.
"Sir, what's the point of talking to a rebel? Just order an arrow to shoot him to death!"
Xu Wei was also the one who led the troops in the war, and he was not merciful. He could still get a great achievement by killing Li Zicheng. This was simply the merit of moving.
"Everyone, stand down! Li Zicheng doesn't dare to do anything to me. If he dares to touch me, everyone in the military order will die. He doesn't dare to take such a big risk."
Seeing the crowd gathered around him, Hu Yunqing shouted at a few people unhappily and said.
He rode towards Li Zicheng alone.
Seeing Hu Yunqing go alone, Yuan Chonghuan, who was a little worried, also rode to the latter's side.
"What are you here for?"
Hu Yunqing looked at Yuan Chonghuan next to him and asked.
"Hmph, I am your guard, and I must stay close to you."
"Everyone, raise your bows and arrows to me. If you find the other party taking action, shoot them with arrows! I opened your eyes wide. If it hurts Mr. Hu, it won't be too much to chop you all down."
When Yuan Chonghuan also left, he had only himself to command the entire army, and behind him were his own people. Xu Wei watched Hu Yunqing walking away nervously, and quickly ordered his subordinates.
"I have long seen that you are not simple, and I take all precautions. I didn't expect to fall into your trap."
Li Zicheng looked at Hu Yunqing who was wearing armor in front of him, smiled and shook his head.
"Regret it?"
Hu Yunqing looked at Li Zicheng. The high-spirited look in the day had long since disappeared. Now he seemed to be just an ordinary person. Hu Yunqing looked at the raging fire behind Li Zicheng and asked him.
"I have no regrets. The imperial court has made life miserable for the people. It is my lifelong wish to overthrow such a rule!"
Listening to Hu Yunqing's question, Li Zicheng's eyes were full of determination, and all the loneliness in his eyes disappeared.
"The imperial court is no longer what it used to be. What's the difference between you and the imperial court? Are you letting those poor people lose their lives in vain?"
Seeing that Li Zicheng still didn't realize his mistake, Hu Yunqing asked him angrily.
After Hu Yunqing finished speaking, Li Zicheng also understood that he had done something wrong and lowered his head and stopped talking.
"I'll give you one last chance. If you still don't surrender, I can only let them shoot arrows."
Hu Yunqing didn't want to waste time at all. Looking at the burning military camp, he could still make miserable screams from time to time.
Although Hu Yunqing was cruel, he couldn't stand hearing the cries of those people being burned alive.
"If I surrender you, will you let them live?"
Li Zicheng looked at the military camp behind him, followed his brother, and finally gave up his obsession and asked Hu Yunqing.
"I can guarantee you the safety of your people, but you have to follow me back to the capital!"
Listening to Li Zicheng's words, Hu Yunqing also understood that Li Zicheng was unwilling to let this happen because of the brothers who were still alive in the camp behind him. If it weren't for Li Zicheng, he wouldn't have raised such a large rebel army in a short time, enough to compete with the imperial court.
He also knew very well in his heart that when everyone below him was fine, Li Zicheng would not be humiliated and would eventually choose to commit suicide. It would be a pity for such a character to die like this, so he made his request.
"I, Li Zicheng, am willing to surrender to Hu Yunqing, the Minister of War!"
Li Zicheng got off his horse, raised his weapon high, knelt on the ground with one leg and shouted.
When Li Zicheng shouted out, the military camp and the surrounding Shenji camp were all stunned on the spot. Unexpectedly, he surrendered directly.
"Go and get those people out and treat them politely! If anyone dares to cause trouble, I won't be lenient!"
Hu Yunqing leaned over, took the weapon in his hand, and shouted to Yuan Chonghuan beside him.
Yuan Chonghuan immediately came to Xu Wei and conveyed Hu Yunqing's words.
"Quickly, control everyone!"
Of course, Xu Wei didn't know what he was going to do, so he did not let Wang Ke's archers relax their vigilance, and dispatched infantry to the military camp to control the rebels.
In the end, all the rebels surrendered. A total of 1,300 people surrendered. All the rebel leaders were captured, including the rebel leader Li Zicheng.
After a night of statistics, a result was finally calculated.
"Haha, after we return to Beijing this time, His Majesty will definitely reward us generously."
"Looking at your potential, what I want is to be promoted to a higher position. What's the point of asking for money?"
...
Xu Wei was also sitting on the main seat, eating meat and listening to the chat between these lieutenant generals. He did not speak, but listened quietly.
"Master Hu!"
While they were talking, everyone stopped chatting, looked at the people walking in at the door, and stood up one after another.
"This is a celebration."
Hu Yunqing saw that everyone had wine bottles on the table, looked around and sat down in his seat and said.
"Master Hu, now we have captured the rebels. Everyone has been tired for such a long time. I will ask the cook to do something good to reward everyone."
After Hu Yunqing sat down, Xu Wei quickly motioned for people to come up to eat and said to Hu Yunqing with a smile.
Hu Yunqing was disgusted with drinking during the march and fighting. Drinking would mess up important events, and it would also get into Hu Yunqing's head.
"Have all the captured rebels been placed?"
