Recruiting Shan Xiongxin has always been Yang Yuanqing's wish. This is not just because Shan Xiongxin is the number one general of the Wagang Army and has extremely high appeal in the Wagang Army. Zhai Rang once said that if he was killed in battle, Xiongxin could be the lord of Wagang.

Recruiting Shan Xiongxin would allow the generals of Wagang to return to their hearts and completely quell the Central Plains Rebellion. Li Mi's distrust of Shan Xiongxin also led to his ultimate failure.

On the other hand, from the perspective of personal relationships, Yang Yuanqing also hopes that Shan Xiongxin can surrender himself. After all, they once had an old friendship, and Yang Yuanqing is also a nostalgic person.

Soon, Shan Xiongxin was pushed up by the soldiers. The iron shackles in his hands and feet had been sawed open, but he was tightly tied by ropes.

Shan Xiongxin was pushed to Yang Yuanqing. He raised his head and did not look at Yang Yuanqing. He straightened his waist and looked at the morning glow in the distance without saying a word.

Yang Yuanqing sighed in his heart and ordered his left and right to say, "Let him loose!"

Several personal soldiers stepped forward and broke the rope on Shan Xiongxin's arm with a sharp knife. Shan Xiongxin moved his numb wrist and said lightly: "Thank you, King Chu!"

"Second Brother Shan seems to have not changed much in the past few years."

The atmosphere was very cold, and Yang Yuanqing smiled a little awkwardly. According to this momentum, it would probably be difficult to make him surrender.

Shan Xiongxin sighed, "Thank you for remembering the past. I can't pay it back in this life, so I will pay it back in the next life!"

After saying that, he turned his back and said, "Please give me some pleasure in the past."

Yang Yuanqing was speechless and sighed for a while: "Why do you have to die? Do you have to end it?"

Shan Xiongxin shook his head. "It's not that it's very dead, but you have no choice. I will never surrender to the Sui Dynasty. If you let me go, I will make a comeback and build Wagang again. Only by killing me can you eliminate future troubles."

Speaking of this, Shan Xiongxin shouted loudly: "Yang Yuanqing, if you are still a hero, just do it! It is also an honor for me, Shan Xiongxin, to die at your hands."

Yang Yuanqing looked at him for a long time and ordered his left and right, "Give him a horse and let him go!"

The generals around were shocked, and Wang Junguo whispered: "Your Highness, Shan Xiongxin is the soul of the Wagang Army. If he is let go, there will be future troubles."

Yang Yuanqing snorted heavily: "Didn't you hear my order?"

The personal soldiers had no choice but to lead a horse to Shan Xiongxin. Shan Xiongxin's eyes showed surprise. Finally, he looked back at Yang Yuanqing, and asked in confusion: "Do you know I want to build another Wagang, but you still want to let me go?"

Yang Yuanqing said lightly: "For the sake of letting you go once in the old friendship. From now on, we will be ruthless. If you rebel, you will go with you, but I will never spare you again. I will use your head to sacrifice my sword. Go!"

Shan Xiongxin looked at Yang Yuanqing deeply, turned over the horse, grabbed a whip from a soldier's hand, whipped the war horse hard, and the war horse ran towards the bottom of the mountain. Yang Yuanqing looked at him and couldn't help but sigh, and he finally lost a friend of the past.

Shan Xiongxin rushed to the foot of the mountain, suddenly stopped his war horse and shouted to the mountain: "I, Shan Xiongxin, are a man who stands tall and upright. I will repay you the favor I owe you. From now on, there will be no more Wagang in the world."

After saying that, he turned his horse's head and ran northwest, gradually disappearing at the end of the wilderness, with a smile on Yang Yuanqing's face.

.........

Wang Bodang led a thousand elite troops to escort Li Mi to break out of Xiao Xian's army and fled to the south. After running for several miles, there were only more than 300 guards left behind, and thousands of pursuers behind him pursued him relentlessly.

Hundreds of people fled east along the official road by the Yangtze River. They ran all the way, looking for ships, but there was no one on both sides of the weeds, let alone a ship. They ran for more than ten miles, and a small river blocked the way. The bridge across the river had been broken, and the front was a dead end. Everyone strangled their war horses. A hundred steps south was the rolling Yangtze River, but to the north was a pile of rocks. In the distance was Longtou Mountain in Chilonggang, which was difficult to move.

Li Mi turned her head and saw that there were dust in the sky three miles away. The pursuit soldiers were almost here. Li Mi was desperate and complained secretly. At this moment, a soldier suddenly pointed at the river and shouted: "Boat, Your Majesty, there is a boat!"

Li Mi also saw an old fisherman with white hair and hair was sailing towards the Yangtze River in a small boat, less than a hundred steps away from them. Li Mi and others were overjoyed and waved and shouted: "Crewman, come here!"

Soon, the old fisherman arrived on a boat and smiled and said, "This bridge was demolished by the army last night, you have to turn around and leave!"

Li Mi was anxious and bowed: "Boatman, I want to cross the river. I will thank you very much if I can take me with me!"

He took out two cakes of gold from the horse bag, threw one onto the boat, and said, "Send me across the river, and the other cake of gold is also yours."

Huang Cancan's gold made the old fisherman's eyes stunned. He had only seen copper coins and had never seen gold. He looked at the gold in Li Mi's hand again, and felt greedy in his heart, and said, "I can send you across the river, but my boat can only sit three people. You can do it yourself!"

Li Mi said without hesitation: "No problem!"

Wang Bo turned his eyes and whispered to Li Mi with his ears, "Lord, I can rock the boat..."

Li Mi nodded slowly, this was a solution.

The boat slowly landed. At this time, the pursuers had already reached a mile away. Seeing that they could no longer follow the lord to escape, the guards abandoned their horses and climbed up the rocky mountain. The boat finally landed. Wang Bodang jumped onto the boat and drew his sword to slash at the fisherman. The fisherman screamed and fell into the water. He could carry another person. He mainly wanted to transport the war horses across the river.

Li Mi led his horse onto the boat, Wang Bodang rowed the oars, and the boat swayed into the river. The boat sailed less than a hundred steps away, and the pursuers arrived. Three thousand cavalrymen set their bows and arrows, and arrows were fired into the Yangtze River. Li Mi raised their shields to greet them. Gradually, the boat sailed out of the range of bows and arrows and headed deep into the river.

It was not until this time that Li Mi finally felt hearted. He stared at the rolling water of the Yangtze River and sighed long, "Everything is like a dream."

"His Majesty...."

Wang Bo was about to ask, but was interrupted by Li Mi, "Don't call me Your Majesty, just call me Big Brother like before! We have always been brothers, not monarchs and ministers."

"Yes! Big Brother."

Wang Bodang agreed and said, "We still have 5,000 troops in Danyang County. We can still occupy the south of the Yangtze River and make a comeback."

Li Mi didn't say anything for a long time. It's okay to go to Jiangnan, but what's the use of occupying Jiangnan? Yang Yuanqing would immediately cross the river and sweep across Jiangnan. I'm afraid he wouldn't be as lucky as he is today. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Go to Guilin County to take a look! If it really doesn't work, then go to Jiaozhi and destroy Linyi. We will establish the country there."

Wang Bodang hesitated for a moment and said, "But...what should I do if my eldest brother's wife and children?"

Li Mi shook her head, "That's their life, and I can't do anything about it."

Wang Bodang felt sad. He stopped talking and tried hard to fly the boat to the other side of the vast river. The fishing boat was very small. It was undulating and shaking on the Yangtze River, which was extremely dangerous. Fortunately, Wang Bodang was skilled in driving the boat. He repeatedly turned danger into a barrage, and gradually, the boat rowed to the middle of the river.

At this moment, Wang Bodang's face turned pale and he looked into the river in horror. Li Mi was also shocked. At some point, a group of warships appeared in front of them, with more than twenty ships, with huge hulls pressing towards them like a mountain. The bow of the ship was carved with a giant dragon and the dragon head was ferocious. On the head of the ship, a big red eagle flag fluttered in the river breeze.

Li Mi couldn't help but feel in disgrace. The Sui army warships were already waiting for him in the river, and he could not escape. Wang Bodang pulled out his battle knife and stared fiercely at the oncoming ship. If he could get him on board, they might have a chance.

But the Sui army fleet did not give them any chance. All the ropes that could climb onto the boat were collected onto the boat. The fleet surrounded the small boats in the river. On the side of the boat, there were dense archers standing, and countless sharp arrows pointed at Li Mi and Wang Bodang on the boat.

On the big ship led by Xie Yingdeng coldly looked at Li Mi and Wang Bodang on the boat. He did not participate in the night attack on the Wei camp last night, but was ordered to intercept Li Mi and Wang Bodang in the river. As expected, Bing Yuanzhen said that Li Mi did not flee north to the Central Plains, but crossed the river to the south.

"General Xie, what should I do?"

A general whispered, "Do you want to capture them alive?"

Xie Yingdeng shook his head. Yang Yuanqing gave him the orders of life and death. He understood what Yang Yuanqing meant was to kill Li Mi on the spot without leaving any troubles.

"No need to capture it alive, shoot it on the spot!" Xie Yingdeng issued an order.

"Abide by the order!"

The general waved the red flag, and several large ships were shot at the same time, and dense arrows were shot at the small boat. Li Mi, a hero, was shot to death in the Yangtze River by the Sui army, and his confidant Wang Bodang also accompanied him to die in the river.

...........

The battle in Chilonggang has been completely over. Nearly 20,000 Wei troops were killed by the Sui army and more than 100,000 were captured. The rest of the soldiers fled back to their hometowns. At the same time, they also faced the final choices. Du Fuwei's army and Xiao Xian's army. Although they cooperated with the Sui army to defeat the Wei army, they themselves had to surrender to the Sui army after the war.

Of course, they are facing a choice, that is, they can surrender or not. They have the opportunity to choose and they can return to their own separatist land.

Yang Yuanqing did not stop them, but gave them a chance to make a fair choice. After all, they were not the Wei army. They were here to assist the Sui army in fighting and were meritorious ministers. They should give them a reward.

Although Du Fuwei and Xiao Xian both had the choice to return to the separatist land, they knew in their hearts that if they did not seize this opportunity, they would have the same fate as Li Mi tomorrow.

In the tent, Du Fuwei knelt on one knee and raised his sword that symbolized military power high. "My minister Du Fuwei was willing to work hard for His Highness, be loyal to the Great Sui Dynasty, and obey His Highness's command."

Yang Yuanqing took his sword and helped him up. Seeing that he was tall and burly, no less than himself, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I have been in contact with General Du for a long time, but today is the first time I meet."

"I have heard of Your Highness's reputation for a long time. Today I will meet the wise master. I will be lucky to have three lives of power."

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "The important land of Jianghuai cannot be misunderstood. I will grant you the Duke of Huai, the General of the Right Guard, the General of Jianghuai Road, and the commander of 30,000 troops to guard Jianghuai for me. I will ask General Du for the safety of Jianghuai."

Du Fuwei was very moved. Yang Yuanqing trusted him so much and asked him to continue to station in Jianghuai. He knelt down on one knee again, clasped his fists high and said, "Fuwei is willing to repay His Highness for his grace of knowing his favor!"
