On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 511
Sang Xianhe's envoy was soon discovered by sentry cavalry after leaving the city, and after voluntarily identifying himself, he was sent to the Eastern Sui camp.

After listening to the other party's explanation of the purpose of coming, Cui Che did not have any doubts. At this time, there were already scouts watching with binoculars on the dirt hill, and reported the disturbance in the city to Cui Che.

The opportunity was right in front of him, and it was impossible for Cui Che not to seize it. He made a decisive decision and sent Qin Qiong to lead [-] single-horse cavalry to detour to the west gate.

After Qu Tutong failed to commit suicide, the defenders gave up completely, and Sang Xian and Qin Qiong who came with him completely controlled the situation.

In an instant, the city changed hands.

That night, Cui Che did not enter the city, but Sang Xianhe, Qu Tutong and others were also brought to Cui Che's tent.

"General Sang was able to distinguish between right and wrong, he obeyed the request of the people in the city, rose up, sacrificed Feng Yi for me, and saved the soldiers and people of the city.

"I will ask the emperor for merit for the general, and I will be the governor of the same state, and I will be promoted to the first rank."

Cui Che laughed loudly.

The name of Feng Yijun in the Eastern Sui Dynasty was Tongzhou.

Sang Xian was very excited when he heard the words. He also knew that he had been working in the same state for a short time, but even if he was transferred at the same level, whether he was going to serve as a governor in another city or become an official in the court, obviously his grade would not be low.

What's more, Cui Che was promoted to the first rank, showing that his county title in the Western Sui Dynasty was also recognized by Cui Che.

In the past, Cui Che would only acknowledge Yang Jian's title of title in the Western Sui Dynasty.

And the title awarded by Yang Guang will naturally not be recognized by the Eastern Sui Dynasty.

Sang Xianhe's position as county magistrate followed Yang Su. When he defeated Yang Liang's Hedong Army in Shayuan, he made military exploits and was bestowed by Yang Guang.

If the usual practice is followed, Sang Xianhe's title will cease to exist.

But obviously, Cui Che was in a good mood tonight, and he also intended to use Sang Xianhe as a hero, not only making an exception to retain his title, but also promoted Sang Xianhe to be a county marquis.

"Great King Long En, the last general will die and cannot repay."

Sang Xianhe kowtowed excitedly.

Cui Che personally helped Sang Xianhe up, and said:
"General Sang doesn't need to do this. Please return to the city at night to help Shubao appease the people in the city. Gu will lead his troops into the city tomorrow morning."

Sang Xianhe took the order immediately and bid farewell to Cui Che with excitement.

Cui Che insisted on sending Sang Xianhe out of the tent, when parting, Cui Che asked Sang Xianhe:
"What does General Sang think of Qu Tutong?"

Sang Xianhe didn't answer immediately, but thought about it in his heart, and replied:
"Mr. Qu Tu is both civil and military, and he is loyal, and Sang has always admired him.

"If the king can subdue this person, it can be of great use.

"If you can't make him submit, you should kill him as soon as possible.

"Otherwise, once this person escapes to Daxing or Jiangnan, he will be in serious trouble."

Cui Che deeply felt the same way and said:
"Qu Tutong served Yang Guang very stupidly, but his behavior was exactly as General Sang said, which can be called loyalty.

"Guruo kills him, I can't bear it.

"I want to keep it, but I am afraid that General Sang will misunderstand it, so I ask this question.

"Now General Sang awakens the man in his dream. If Qu Tutong is repentant, Gu will be able to tolerate him. If Qu Tutong is obsessed with obsession, Gu will not spare his life."

Sang Xian and Wen Yan were very moved. He didn't expect that Cui Che would really think about it from the perspective of a surrendered general. He bowed again:

"Whether the king kills Qu Tugong or keeps him, it will not change the loyalty of the general to the king. If a soldier dies for his confidant, the general is willing to serve the king with his dog and horse."

Cui Che was overjoyed, and immediately walked out of the camp hand in hand with Sang Xianhe, watching him disappear into the vast night before returning to the commander's tent.

At this time Qu Tutong and other captured generals had been waiting for a long time, and they were escorted by Sang Xianhe.

Cui Che didn't talk to Qu Tutong right away, but looked at Yao Junsu, the Ying Yanglang general who had rescued Qu Tutong before:
"The surname Yao is not common. Yao Xiong, the general who was the emperor of Shenwu Gao Huan in Yuzhou and defeated Chen Qingzhi twice, is related to you?"

When Yao Junsu heard Cui Che talking about Yaoxiong, he couldn't help puffing out his chest, and said loudly:

"It is the ancestor."

Cui Che feigned surprise:

"It turns out that it is after Duke Yao, come here, quickly untie him."

In the shock of Yao Junsu, Changsun Wuji untied him personally, he didn't know what Cui Che was planning.

Cui Che explained:
"Duke Yao and Gu's grandfather used to be ministers in the same palace and assisted the Gao family together. For Duke Yao, the grandfather praised him a lot, and Gu also respected him. Now that he meets the descendants of Duke Yao, how can he be treated slowly?"

However, Yao Junsu said seriously:

"Thanks to the kindness of the king, but loyal ministers do not have two masters. When the sage (Yang Guang) was a potential vassal, Yao was the guard of the Jin Palace. He was deeply favored by the sage, so how could he have two hearts?"

Cui Che naturally knew that this person was a loyal minister. In the original time and space, Qu Tutong and Sang Xianhe were ordered by Li Yuan to come to persuade him to surrender, but he ridiculed him, making him feel ashamed.

His wife came to persuade him to surrender, but he shot to death with an arrow. Because Yao Jun was good at commanding the army, even though he was surrounded by heavy siege, none of his subordinates rebelled.

Until the food in the city was exhausted, the army and the people changed their sons to eat each other, and there was no way to survive. After all, Yao Junsu truly died and died for the country, instead of shouting slogans like Qu Tutong.

Now that he knew that he was such a person, Cui Che would not be angry because of Yao Junsu's attitude.

He sighed:

"How can your friendship with Yang Guang be compared to mine? I have known him since we were young, we are like brothers, and we are also relatives of sons and daughters. At the beginning, Yang Guang was able to be established as the prince, and Cui also contributed a lot.

"Now why do you have to take the risk of exterminating the family and raise troops against him? Isn't it because Yang Guang murdered his father and brother, steamed his concubine, and his heinous crimes are too numerous to write down.

"The current situation is clear. No one can stop me from unifying the north. In the future, I will march south and unify the world is just around the corner.

"You claim to be a loyal minister, but how will future generations look at you? They will only laugh at you for being a traitor and a murderer.

"Your descendants will also blame you, why can't you obey the destiny and uphold justice, and have to die for the tyrant and bring disaster to your descendants."

What he said made Yao Junsu speechless. Earlier on the tower, he obeyed Qu Tutong's order to put down his weapon, not just to surrender to Cui Che, but even to scold Cui Che for his ingratitude face to face.

Now Yao Junsu can no longer swear.

He is not afraid of death, but only wants to leave a clean name.

But if it is true as Cui Che said, the name left behind will only cause ridicule and resentment from future generations, is it necessary to keep this name?

Seeing that Yao Junsu was struggling, Cui Che did not force him to make an immediate decision, but ordered someone to take him down and temporarily put him in custody, hoping that Yao Junsu could think about it.

After Yao Junsu was taken away, Cui Che had the time to look at Qu Tutong.
