After Wang Zuo got Dou Jiande's permission, with the help of several of Dou Jiande's diehard loyalists, he climbed down the city wall at night and ran straight to the Sui army camp.
Running four or five miles in front of the Sui army's camp, Wang Zuo was stopped by several Sui army sentries. The leader of the Sui army sentries shouted and asked: "Who is it? Please tell me your name quickly, otherwise you will be killed." on the spot."
Wang Zuo expressed his identity calmly and said: "This general, I am Wang Zuo who joined the army beside Dou Jiande. Now I have decided to abandon the dark side and join the Ming Dynasty and join the Sui Dynasty. I hope the general will lead the way for me?"
"Dou Jiande's side join the army?"
The captain of the Sui army's sentry cavalry was also shocked when he heard this. There were many Xia troops who had surrendered to Yuecheng in recent days, but Wang Zuo's level was the first one. He did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly ordered his men to give Wang Zuo a horse, and took Wang Zuo straight to the camp.
. . . . . . . . . .
Today Dou Xianniang went to Xingyang City to persuade her father Dou Jiande to surrender. Unexpectedly, Dou Jiande became so angry that he wanted to sever the father-daughter relationship with Dou Xianniang. This made Dou Xianniang quite sad. After returning to the camp, she cried bitterly in Yang Gao's imperial tent. Incessantly.
Although Yang Gao expected that Dou Jiande would not surrender, he did not expect that Dou Jiande would become so angry that he would sever the father-daughter relationship with Dou Xianniang. Looking at Dou Xianniang who was crying like pear blossoms and raining down rain, Yang Gao felt guilty on the one hand and felt guilty on the other. He couldn't bear to see Dou Xianniang so sad, so he stayed in the imperial tent to comfort Dou Xianniang.
Just at this moment, the soldiers outside the camp suddenly came to report: "Your Majesty, the patrol sentries came to report that they captured a scribe while scouting outside the camp. The man claimed to be Dou Jiande's army counselor Wang Zuo and came to seek refuge with Your Majesty. .”
"Wang Zuo?"
Yang Gao was startled when he heard this, then sneered, nodded lightly and said, "I understand. You go and invite General Xue Rengui, General Li Yaoshi and Mr. Liu Bowen first, and then bring Wang Zuo."
"According to the order!"
The soldiers outside the tent accepted the order and left in a hurry.
Yang Gao turned over and got off the dragon bed, caressed Dou Xian Niang's back a few times, and said softly: "Ai Ji, have a good rest. I still have some state affairs to deal with, so I won't accompany you!"
Dou Xianniang has been crying for a long time since she came back, and the depression in her heart has been relieved a lot through crying. After hearing Yang Gao's words, he nodded slowly and said, "Your Majesty, please go down. I will not embarrass Your Majesty."
. . . . . . . . . .
After a while, Wang Zuo, led by Yang Gao's soldiers, walked into the imperial tent, knelt down and saluted Yang Gao, and said, "The guilty minister Wang Zuo is here to see your majesty, long live my emperor!"
Taking advantage of Wang Zuo's salute, Yang Gao quickly opened the system, scanned Wang Zuo's loyalty value, and found that his loyalty to him was actually negative. He immediately determined that he was a fake surrender.
Looking at Wang Zuo kneeling in front of him, Yang Gao smiled sinisterly and said to himself: "You Wang Zuo, you dare to use cruel tricks on me, then I will have fun with you!"
Having made up his mind, Yang Gao deliberately pretended to ask: "Wang Zuo, you claim to be Dou Jiande's military adviser. Logically speaking, Dou Jiande should treat you well. Why did you betray Dou Jiande and defect to me?"
Wang Zuo silently untied his armor, took out the amputated arm, and cried: "Your Majesty, today Empress Dou came to persuade Dou Jiande to surrender. When the guilty minister heard about this, he advised him that the war is not going well now, so it is better to surrender. Your Majesty, with Empress Dou by your side, he will definitely have a good future. Unexpectedly, Dou Jiande became so angry that he drew his sword and cut off the offender's arm directly, and drove the offender out of the military camp with a stick. "
The more Wang Zuo talked about it, the sadder he became, and in the end he cried loudly: "The guilty minister is not a traitor to seek glory. It is for his consideration to persuade him to submit to Your Majesty. Even if he does not accept it, he should not treat the guilty minister like this. The guilty minister cannot bear the humiliation." Only then did Wei Ye climb over the wall and come to seek refuge with His Majesty!"
Looking at Wang Zuo who was crying in front of him, Yang Gao couldn't help but smile to himself: "Wang Zuo, you really have a talent for acting. If you look at future generations, you will be a movie king with perfect acting skills."
Although he thought so in his heart, Yang Gao still pretended to be indignant on the surface, "This Dou Jiande is really cruel and vicious. You just persuaded him to surrender to me, but he didn't listen, and he actually beheaded you." One of your arms will make you disabled for the rest of your life. Someone, please take Mr. Wang to the military doctor first and bandage Mr. Wang to stop the bleeding."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, sir!" Wang Zuo bowed and bowed, then followed a few soldiers and left the imperial tent.
After Wang Zuo left, Yang Gao turned to look at Liu Bowen, Xue Rengui, and Li Jing and asked, "Do you think what Wang Zuo said is true or false?"
Liu Bowen gently shook the feather fan in his hand and said disdainfully: "This person must be a fake surrender!"
Li Jing also smiled lightly and said: "What Mr. Liu said is absolutely true. Your Majesty, this person must not be trusted!"
Yang Gao was shocked when he heard this. He had a system in hand, so he could see that Wang Zuonai was faking surrender, but how did Liu Bowen and Li Jing see it? He immediately asked: "Why do you think this person is pretending to surrender?"
Liu Bowen smiled slightly and explained: "Although Wang Zuo's words just now are touching, they are full of loopholes. The defenders in Xingyang City kept leaving the city to surrender to our army a few days ago. How could Dou Jiande not know? He should have been there long ago. It's better to arrange direct troops and horses on the city top to patrol and guard against deserters. Wang Zuo's arm was cut off by Dou Jiande just now, how could he get out of the city after being seriously injured?"
Li Jing then expressed his suspicions: "Your Majesty, I once traveled all over the world when I was young and knew all the heroes in the world. I know that Dou Jiande of Hebei Province is a generous man and would never be so vicious. What's more, during the day, Dou Jiande was because of Empress Dou. She was so angry about persuading her to surrender that she wanted to sever the father-daughter relationship. Wang Zuo can serve as Dou Jiande's military adviser, so it's impossible that he doesn't even have this insight."
After hearing the analysis of the two men, Yang Gao smiled slightly and secretly mocked Wang Zuo: "You, a person with an intelligence of no more than 84, have the nerve to use bitter tricks in front of these great historical gods. You are really asking for trouble!"
While Yang Gao was secretly mocking Wang Zuo in his heart, Liu Bowen suddenly smiled slightly, stroked his beard, raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Zuo came to pretend to surrender, but the minister thought of a clever plan from it, maybe he can annihilate Dou Jiande. Take Xingyang County."
Yang Gao chuckled and said, "What clever plan does the military advisor have? Tell me!"
Liu Bowen took his time and laid out his plan clearly.
After Yang Gao heard Liu Bowen's plan, he laughed loudly, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, this is a great plan. I will play tricks on Wang Zuo this time."
