Chapter 903 The army enters the city
Given that these two messengers have shown that as long as they surrender now and put down their weapons, their lives will be guaranteed, then the negotiator Watanabe Asaro, who was elected by everyone, felt that it would be OK to surrender now.
Besides, seeing that these two messengers were very impatient, they were no longer willing to continue talking with me. If I did not seize this opportunity, the other party would never talk to them about surrender again.
By then, the other party conquered Shiliang City, and they all would lose their heads.
So, Watanabe Mataro quickly agreed and said that he would go back and notify the defenders immediately, asking them to put down their weapons and prepare for surrender.
Hearing Watanabe Mataro's words, a slight kind expression appeared on the faces of the two stubborn genetic messengers, which made the big stone in Watanabe Mataro's heart fall a little.
After stabilizing the two envoys, Watanabe Mataro quickly returned to the defenders and conveyed all the words and meanings that the envoy said to him to the defenders.
"The other party asked us to put down our weapons immediately and start surrendering. If we were slower, they would not continue to talk to us. And they told me that there was only one negotiation like this, and if we refused, they would immediately launch an attack and would never accept surrender again."
When talking about this, Watanabe Mataro's expression was very serious.
"At the same time, the other party warned that if we rejected this surrender, then when they conquered Shiliang City, all of us would be cut off without leaving any of us."
Hmm!
After listening to the retelling of Watanabe Mataro, the deputies of Shiro Castle all showed horror expressions on their faces.
"Then what are you waiting for? Just put down your weapons immediately. Don't let the messenger feel that we are not sincere and missed such an opportunity."
Some timid guys immediately shouted about surrendering immediately, and they must not let the messengers get impatient and then have any unexpected situations.
"Yes, we have to act immediately. If the messenger misunderstood us, it would be bad. No one is willing to continue fighting, it is true."
Watanabe Mataro's eyes swept across the faces of the representatives around him.
"Yes, you're right. We can't let the messengers have misunderstandings, so now we must start surrendering immediately. But you also need to pay attention. I'm worried that someone will make trouble at this time. After all, there are still people who are not the same as us. They want to fight to the end."
Watanabe Mataro is not a fool either. He is still very familiar with some of the current situation of Shiraki Castle's defenders.
Although many of these people now have the same idea as him, that is, to end the war and surrender to save their lives.
However, there are also people who have different ideas from them, that is, there are such a group of people who want to fight against the enemy to the end. People like this can be said to be the mortal enemy of Watanabe Mataro and others.
Now that the armistice is imminent, the surrender is almost done.
As long as there is no accident, as long as they put down their weapons and leave the city they are stationed and handed over to the enemy's army, everything will be completed.
But if those people do something wrong, all of this will be wasted, right?
Therefore, Watanabe Mataro must not let such a thing happen, and he definitely does not want these militants to destroy the chance they long for survival.
"You watch those militants. If they have any abnormal movements, they will solve them. Whether we can survive now depends on what will come next. Therefore, I don't want the current situation to be destroyed by those guys."
The selected qualified people have basically the same ideas as those of Watanabe Mataro.
Therefore, they all agreed with the proposal of Asatro Watanabe.
After a brief contact, the representatives elected by the soldiers at the bottom dispersed. They returned to their own team and told the agreement reached by Watanabe Mataro and the envoy to the soldiers at the bottom.
After hearing that the enemy had accepted their offer of surrender and agreed to ensure their lives after they put down their weapons and surrendered, they cheered excitedly.
For these soldiers at the bottom, they just want to save their lives.
They have no ambitions.
Therefore, it must be different from a small group of people's ideas.
Besides, the imperial guards of the Song Empire and the mercenaries of Rodelney had already shown their strong and fierce combat power when they captured the three-level defense circle below, which completely opened the horizons of Shiliang City, and completely wiped out their morale, bravery and confidence.
Under such a situation, how could the defenders of Shiliang City still hold on?
What's more, the fate of Toyokani Saburo Toyakaya and those middle- and senior military officers who were assassinated with him are still vivid in their memory.
Therefore, even if they continue to resist, they cannot guard against those elusive ninjas.
Under various reasons, the defenders of Shiliang City completely did not want to continue fighting.
It will be no good for them to fight.
Even, they may anger the enemy and make them lose their lives one by one.
Even if they defended Shiliang City, they would not get anything in the end.
Since that's the case, it's better to surrender like this.
Because Watanabe Mataro had communication with most people, they immediately began to arrange surrender after returning to their team.
First, they asked the soldiers to put down their weapons, then arranged in neat queues, and began to wait for the beginning of surrender.
At this time, of course, they would not forget to send their trusted candidates to watch over the guys who might make some troubles and forcibly tie them up.
The purpose of this is to prevent any bad things from happening.
Faced with such treatment, these hawks were helpless.
After all, they are weak and cannot fight against so many people. You should know that the soldiers at the bottom of the defenders in Shiliang City are eager to surrender and cease to fight.
If they continue to fight against the enemy to the end, perhaps these guys will dare to kill them all in order to ensure the smooth progress of the surrender.
So, if they are not a fool, they will understand and clear what choices they should have at such a time.
As long as they are honest, they can ensure their lives are safe.
If they were not honest, what would they do, these former companions who guarded them would not be so polite to them.
Because they saw a very obvious murderous intent in the eyes of these former companions.
Outside the city, Zhao Hongyu had already seen the situation of the defenders located on the fourth floor through the telescope. He saw the defenders placing their weapons in a fixed location in rows, and then they began to line up neatly.
From this we can see that the defenders of Shiliang City have officially surrendered.
"Appoint the entire army to enter Shiliang City. At the same time, control the surrendered defenders and separate them from the people of Shiliang City. They cannot be allowed to be with the people of Shiliang City. If someone in the province incites those people, there will be any accidents."
When Zhao Hongyu knew that the overall situation was settled, he felt much more relieved.
He immediately issued an order for the entire army to enter Shiliang City.
After all, he still needs to loot Shiliang City and turn all the Japanese wealth in Shiliang City into his own.
Although there are some robbers in this way, Zhao Hongyu feels that there is nothing wrong with doing this.
Who asked Shi Liangcheng to resist at the beginning?
This has delayed a lot of his precious time, so in order to teach them a little lesson, what can I do if I plunder their money?
At least, it was already very good that I didn't take their lives.
At the same time, I also hired people like Rodelney, but I wanted to give real money.
The wealth that might have been plundered in Shiliang City is just used as a salary for Rodelney and others?
And you can also make a little fortune.
It is normal to capture the enemy's city and plunder it in this era.
Besides, I robbed the Japanese city, so I would not have any burden in my heart.
With Zhao Hongyu's order, the army outside the city began to move slowly.
However, Zhao Hongyu's army did not allow the entire army to enter Shiliang City. After all, more than 100 artillery pieces under his command could not enter Shiliang City, and he still needed to leave some troops to guard these artillery.
These cannons are Zhao Hongyu's heart-to-heart treasures and are also a powerful tool he used to conquer Jiuzhou.
Therefore, he must keep it carefully.
"Your Highness, Shiliang City has surrendered. So will we immediately enter the Satsuma Vajra and launch an attack on its hinterland? You must know that the soldiers are very powerful, and the fall of Shiliang City will definitely be spread in a very short time. Therefore, we must soon seize some important areas before the people in the Satsuma Vajra hinterland could react."
The army set off, and a genetic human commander came to Zhao Hongyu's side of the war horse and raised his head to suggest.
Zhao Hongyu felt aroused by the words. He thought about it carefully and felt that the commander was right.
