Chapter 2460: Capturing and luring Tu Xingsun to surrender (final)

Under the temptation of Wu Qi's two wives, four maids, and a dowry of 10,000 taels of gold, Tu Xingsun had no reason whatsoever and decisively chose to betray and surrender to Qin.

In Tu Xingsun's view, although the status of a disciple of a great sect is good, it can neither be used as food nor allowed to marry a wife. Naturally, it is not as good as having two wives and four dowry bed-warming maids.

Now Wu Qi is offering such a high salary just to recruit a loser like himself. If he refuses such a good thing like pie in the sky, wouldn't it be wrong with his brain?

 So, for the sake of his two wives and four maids, Tu Xingsun decided not to be a disciple of the great religion.

Isn't it just apostasy? It's not like his master has never done it before, and as a disciple, he follows the example and follows the example, which is very reasonable, isn't it?

At this thought, Tu Xingsun straightened his back and was no longer so humble. After all, he would be a high official in Da Qin from now on, with two wives and a fortune worth tens of thousands of taels of gold. He was no longer as short and poor as before. .

Hmm, I have become short and rich.

Tu Xingsun’s change was noticed by Wu Qi and others, which also made Zhang Xiu even more speechless. He couldn’t help complaining in his heart: "What do you think, you traitor?"

Tu Xingsun didn't care about everyone's attitude. He cupped his fists at Wu Qi and said, "Master Governor, I have a request at the end."

Just now he is humbled, he claims to be 'villain', but now even the title has become the ‘last general’, which also gives Wu Qi a new understanding of the thickest degree of Tu Xingsun.

“Let’s talk about it,” Wu Qi said. “Last general” is not just a word you say casually. Unless you make great achievements, you still have a long way to go before becoming a “general”.

Tu Xingsun was startled and asked: "Master Governor, I am a master-level expert. Why can't I be made a general even if I surrender to the Qin Dynasty?"

“Isn’t it valuable for you to be the general of Qin? You can be any grandmaster?” Wu Qi said with a speechless expression.

"Is not it?"

Tu Xingsun asked with a puzzled look. According to his understanding, in countries such as the Tang, Wei, and Song dynasties, if a master-level master came to seek refuge, he would have at least the rank of general.

“Of course not. There was only one way to become a general in Da Qin, and that was to accumulate military merit.

If it were based on strength, wouldn't Li Cunxiao have been a general for a long time, and what about General Bai Qi? "Wu Qi said angrily.

It is a rule in Da Qin that military rank is linked to merit. Otherwise, with Wu Qi's qualifications, how could he be promoted so quickly without great merit.

Zhang Xiu stood up at this time and said: "In addition to your merits, if you have served as an official in another country and have an official position nearby, you will take the initiative to submit and serve at the same level, or you will be lowered by one rank."

 “What if you surrender after being captured?” Tu Xingsun asked.

 That’s right, he’s talking about himself.

“After being captured alive and surrendering, he will be demoted according to his personal circumstances, usually by one to three grades, and then be awarded a position.

 Before he surrendered to Qin, he was General Li Tang Andong, ranking third in rank.

 After surrendering to the Qin Dynasty, he was granted the title of General Yongzhou Wuwei, ranking in the fourth rank, but was demoted one rank. "

There are very few examples of a surrendered general like Zhang Xiu who surrendered after being captured but was only demoted by one rank.

After all, Zhang Xiu is a disciple of Tong Yuan, and Prince Consort Zhao Yun is also a disciple of Tong Yuan, so Tong Yuan's brand is still very loud in Da Qin.

 Don’t look at the monk’s face but also look at the Buddha’s face.

 Great Qin gave Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun the face and only demoted Zhang Xiu to one rank. Otherwise, if it was business, it would be nothing if he demoted Zhang Xiu to the sixth rank.

However, with Zhang Xiu's ability and reputation, it is too outrageous to be reduced to the sixth rank. The element of suppression is too obvious. Obviously no one would do this. "Tu Xingsun, what is your position in Li Tang?" Huang Tianxiang asked.

"I…"

Tu Xingsun opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to answer, because he was a white man with a **** job.

Li Mu only used beauty and money to deceive him, and did not arrange any official position for him at all.

Before Zhang Xiu surrendered, he was Li Tang's third-rank general, General Anton. Because of his relationship with Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun, he was demoted one rank.

But he was a white man, without any official position, and yet he surrendered after being captured. This should not start from a small soldier, it would take years and months to become a general.

Wu Qi saw that Tu Xingsun did not have an official position, and said: "If you don't have an official position, you need to enter the Nine Dragon Guards for training, and you will be appointed as a seventh-grade military attache after you come out.

Da Qin aspires to unify the world, and there is no shortage of opportunities to make meritorious deeds. With your master-level strength, you will be promoted to a fourth-grade general in no time. "

"Master Governor, how long will this take?" Tu Xingsun asked with an apologetic smile.

“About three or four years. If you make great achievements, it should be faster.”

“What a misstep. I should have asked Li Mu to make me a third-grade general first, and then come to Quyou City.”

Tu Xingsun muttered to himself sadly, and with his not-so-smart mind, he actually thought of the bug in Ka Daqin's official selection.

Li Tang is now in a critical period, and his official position is worthless. With his master-level strength, if he takes refuge with Li Tang in times of crisis, it is not difficult to be named a third- or fourth-rank general. If he surrenders to Great Qin, he will be demoted. , that is also the fourth grade.

 It is a pity that all these are lost because of his own rough nerves.

 For this, Tu Xingsun felt regretful in his heart, and his resentment towards Li Mu became even heavier.

 After hearing Tu Xingsun’s words, Wu Qi and others were even more speechless.

 Let Li Mu make you a third-grade general?

 You may not be thinking about shit.

Li Mu himself is only a third-rank official, and can only be appointed to a sixth-rank official position at most. How can he be qualified to appoint an official position at the same level as himself?

The stuck bug is not so hard to fix.

“What request did you want to make before?” Wu Qi asked.

 “No, it’s nothing.”

Tu Xingsun quickly said that he originally wanted to give Changsun Wuji's sister to him after Chang'an was conquered.

Even though he knew that he had been deceived by Li Mu, he still missed Changsun Wuji's sister, but now he didn't think about it anymore. After all, for a man, the world is the biggest career.

"Master Governor, Li Mu has deceived me many times and treated his subordinates as fools. Now that I have returned to Qin, I would like to take his head as a certificate of surrender."

Tu Xingsun took the initiative to ask for the order. He hated Li Mu so much now that if he could kill him, he would be able to accomplish both meritorious service and vent his anger. It would kill two birds with one stone.

When Wu Qi heard this, a smile flashed in his eyes and he said, "How are you going to kill Li Mu?"

"Reporting to the Governor, Li Mu does not know that his subordinate has surrendered to Qin, and he does not have much precaution against his subordinate. If his subordinate can go back, it will be easy to take his head with the help of earth magic." Tu Xingsun said confidently. .
