Mussolini did not surrender, he was removed from office by the Grand Fascist Council, arrested, and later freed by German special forces led by Otto Skorzeny. He was then made leader of the Italian Social Republic in the north, until his murder at the hands of communist partisans towards the end of the war.

What caused Il Duce Benito Mussolini and the Nazi's to break ties?
The fact that Fascist opposition against the invading Allies quickly crumbled and that Italy started suing for peace or at least an armistice. The Grand Council of the Fascist Party had by then already deposed Mussolini as its leader, and the King had fired him as Prime Minister. The Nazis did not break ties with Mussolini at that point. Surrender of Italy to the Allies would mean that Germany faced immediate invasion from the south. So the Nazis forcibly reinstated Mussolini and used him as a pretext to replace the crumbling Italian defence by a strong German army. Mussolini was kept in power by the Germans until the very end of WW 2. Only when the German troops finally retreated they left him to his fate. Mussolini was discovered when he tried to flee in a German convoy, was arrested and shot.

On September 8th 1943, Italy rose against Mussolini and formed the "Kingdom Of Italy" however, 14 days later on September 22nd, Mussolini and his followers formed the RSI or Italian Social Republic in order to continue their fight.
