On the official road leading to Fufeng Pass, the army led by Du Qi was hurrying on their way.
Du Qi was now close to Fufeng Pass.
Along the way, the army led by Du Qi had a smooth journey and did not encounter any obstacles. As Du Qi's army was hurrying on their way, the person arranged by Xu Chongwen had arrived at the front of the army and asked for an audience.
Du Qi received the news and ordered for the person to be brought over.
The person who delivered the message was also an ordinary soldier of Fufeng Pass. When the soldier saw Du Qi, he quickly knelt down and said, "Reporting to Emperor Xia, the military advisor of Fufeng Pass, Xu Chongwen, has taken over the entire pass and is willing to submit to Emperor Xia. As for the specific situation, please read the letter, Emperor Xia. "
As he spoke, he handed over the letter.
The soldier took it and passed it to Wang Ji.
Du Qi opened the letter and quickly skimmed through it. After he finished reading the contents of the letter, his face was suddenly filled with smiles.
The letter was indeed to surrender.
This was a good thing.
Du Qi kept the letter and ordered, "Go back and tell Xu Chongwen that I have accepted his surrender. I will reward him handsomely. "
"Yes!"
The soldier stood up and left quickly.
After the soldier left, the army led by Du Qi continued their journey towards Fufeng Pass. Originally, Du Qi's army was not far from Fufeng Pass. In less than four hours, the army arrived at Fufeng Pass.
Xu Chongwen had been waiting for a long time and was ready to surrender. When he saw Du Qi's army, he immediately led the soldiers in the pass to welcome them. When he arrived at the front of the army, Xu Chongwen bowed and said, "Xu Chongwen greets Emperor Xia."
"Greetings Emperor Xia."
The rest of the people bowed in unison.
Their faces were filled with anticipation. After all, following Du Qi was the only way to have a bright future. Now that the Southern Nation was in a difficult situation, following Wang Tan was equivalent to courting death.
However, these people were still nervous. Although Du Qi had agreed to take them in, no one knew what Du Qi was thinking and how he would settle them down.
Everyone's hearts were filled with anxiety.
Du Qi waved his hand and said, "Get up, there's no need to be so polite."
"Thank you, Emperor Xia."
Only then did everyone stand up. However, when they stood up, they all bowed slightly, not daring to show the slightest bit of indulgence. After all, no one dared to act recklessly at the moment.
Du Qi waved his hand again. Yan Three quickly led the soldiers forward and took over Fufeng Pass.
The entire checkpoint was under Yan Three's control. Then, Du Qicai entered the checkpoint with his men and entered the military camp. All the soldiers in the pass submitted to him, and there were no changes.
Du Qi received Xu Chongwen and the other commanders of Fufeng Pass in the main tent. He looked around at them and said, "All of you have submitted to me. I have said this before, and I admire all of you. Especially Xu Chongwen. This time, we were able to enter Fufeng Pass directly because of your plan. You deserve the credit. "
Xu Chongwen was delighted when he heard this, but his expression remained calm. He said faintly, "Thank you for your praise, Emperor Xia. These are things that I should do. Moreover, even without me, there would be others who would help you. Or perhaps, Emperor Xia would break through Fufeng Pass directly. After all, it's just Fufeng Pass. To Emperor Xia, that's a piece of cake. "
Du Qi nodded slightly.
This Xu Chongwen was good with words, and he was quite capable.
Wang Qi said in a deep voice, "Xu Chongwen, I still lack a strategist. Are you willing to work for me and work for me?"
"I am willing!"
When Xu Chongwen heard this, he became excited.
His chance was here.
He had taken over Zhou Zhao and submitted to Du Qi. Finally, he received his reward.
The reward was extremely generous.
Although being a strategist by Du Qi's side did not mean much. But in reality, with such a status, he could often stay by Du Qi's side.
If Du Qi was an ordinary person, the strategist by his side would be worthless. The problem was that Du Qi was not an ordinary person. Du Qi was the Emperor of Xia of Xia. Such a person was the existence of law. The main thing was to stay by Du Qi's side and work for Du Qi. In the end, he would definitely rise.
Du Qi nodded his head, then turned to the other generals in the tent and said, "This time, we were able to take Zhou Zhao and Fufeng Pass was able to smoothly submit to us. The contributions of the Six Great Generals cannot be broken. Now, I will give you two choices. "
The six generals looked at Du Qi with anticipation in their eyes.
Du Qi's arrangement was extraordinary.
Du Qi continued, "First, the main general of Fufeng Pass, Zhou Zhao, is dead, and there are no deputy generals for the time being. All of you will stay here and be promoted according to your original rank. You will be the generals of Fufeng Pass and continue to guard Fufeng Pass. "
"Second, transfer to this King's army and work in this King's army. Although there is a certain amount of risk in continuing to conquer the world under this king's command, the benefit is that ambitious people like you will be able to fulfill your ambitions and have the opportunity to achieve great things. You will not be trapped in Fufeng Pass forever. "
"The first and second choices both have their advantages and disadvantages."
"Everything is up to you."
Du Qi spoke with fervor and assurance, "This King will abide by all of your opinions and follow your arrangements. As long as you are willing, this King will agree to anything. "
Hearing this, the six generals began to consider.
Seeing this, Xu Chongwen inwardly shook his head. If this matter was placed on him, the choice would not be difficult at all. He would directly follow Du Qi and serve in Du Qi's army, fighting for the opportunity to render meritorious service.
But everyone had their own ambitions.
Now that Xu Chongwen was at Du Qi's side and serving Du Qi, he did not say anything for the time being.
He would just wait and see.
Du Qi looked at this scene and waited quietly. He did not rush them. If these people were willing to submit, then they would be his foundation in the south. After all, they would never be able to return to the south and could only stand on his side.
This was the opportunity he needed to seize.
He needed to win their hearts.
"King of the Xia Kingdom, your humble servant Xia Xiong is willing to stay and continue to guard Fufeng Pass."
Among the crowd, one person volunteered to stay.
His name was Xia Xiong and he was ranked second among the group. Although his status was a little lower, he still hoped to stay at Fufeng Pass. After all, he was now over forty years old. At this age, he had lost the will to fight.
"King of the Xia Kingdom, your humble servant Feng Qianlei is willing to serve under your command."
Another person opened his mouth.
This person was called Feng Qianlei, the first general under Zhou Zhao. Although he was called a general, in fact, he was not a general. But among the six generals, he was ranked first and was not yet thirty years old. He was the one with the most fighting spirit and fighting spirit.
After Feng Qianlei spoke, the other four expressed their willingness to work under Du Qi's command. They were all willing to fight in Du Qi's army. After all, none of them were particularly old.
All of them still had a certain fighting spirit.
This was what everyone was looking forward to.
After hearing this, Du Qi nodded and said, "In this case, Xia Xiong will stay at Fufeng Pass and become the guard of Fufeng Pass. The rest of you, led by Feng Qianlei, will be transferred to serve under my command. Now that you are in the army, of course, you can't still be in a high position. There will be changes. But this is not to suppress you, but for you to gain a foothold and to convince the soldiers. "
Feng Qianlei said, "Your humble servant understands."
The other four people also hurriedly nodded. For them, as long as they could stay under Du Qi's command, it was worth it.
Moreover, Du Qi's army was strong.
They were the weak, and it was impossible for the weak to lead the strong. Therefore, they were all willing to serve under Du Qi's arrangement. Moreover, those who were willing to transfer to the army all had some fighting spirit. Therefore, they had the fighting spirit for promotion, and were not afraid of temporary gains and losses.
Du Qi arranged Xia Xiong, Feng Qianlei, and the others properly, and let them go to adjust the army.
Du Qi's eyes turned and fell on Xu Chongwen, saying, "Mr. Xu, now that Fufeng Pass has been taken, I will kill Wang Tan first. Next, this king will destroy Wang Tan. What do you think this king should do to smoothly take down Wang Tan and seize the entire Southern Empire? "
