"The thieves have all been surrounded, and they are all frightened, and they are powerless to resist, the overall situation has been decided, and the lowly rank is here to congratulate the chief soldier."
"In this battle, our army fought more with fewer blows and won tens of thousands, thanks to the proper command of the lord, otherwise how could it have achieved this great feat?"
"After this battle, the chief soldier will inevitably be promoted to the rank of commander, and whoever dares to say a word in Guangzhou will not be finished with him."
Outside the Daxiong Palace, Wu Jinzhong calmly accepted the congratulations of the officers under his command, although the casualties in this battle were larger, but compared to the capture, the casualties were nothing, and most of the deaths were battalion soldiers, as long as the flag soldiers were not injured, no matter how many soldiers died in this battalion, it didn't matter.
Seeing that the thief army trapped in the area of Daxiong Hall had fallen into a desperate situation, and there were his own soldiers and horses on all sides, Wu Jinzhong ordered all his troops to encircle on the spot, and they were not allowed to attack without orders.
The subordinates were all confused by this order, and the thieves were obviously unable to fight anymore, so why didn't the chief soldier order to enter the palace in one go, but instead ordered to stop the attack Ordered to stop the attack, Wu Jinzhong had his own reasons, and he couldn't understand the reason why the beast was still fighting.
Although the thieves who fled into the Daxiong Hall were all frightened, looking at their situation, they did not flee all the way, but retreated in an orderly manner, and there were thieves and soldiers covering each other when retreating, which shows that the leader of the thieves also has some skills, and those thieves who retreated into the palace are not without the strength to fight.
Looking at the surroundings of this Daxiong Palace, the thief army obviously occupies a high place, and some fortifications have been made in dangerous places everywhere, although it is rough and simple, but it is not easy to attack, and it still takes some hands and feet to attack it.
Moreover, the Qing army suffered too many casualties in the battle of attacking the mountain, although Wu Jinzhong did not care about the casualties, but he really died a lot, and he was not easy to explain to Guangzhou, after all, it was just a rabble pulled up by a group of bandits, not a serious soldier, if there were many dead soldiers, his face was not good-looking, since the thieves had gone, it was better to reduce some unnecessary casualties, so Wu Jinzhong decided to send someone to persuade him to surrender.
"Persuasion" The officers were all stunned, and they didn't know why the chief soldier wanted to persuade him to surrender Wu Jinzhong didn't bother to explain anything to his subordinates, and drank: "Don't go yet" "Chirp" The officers had no choice but to send people to persuade them to surrender.
On the square in front of the Daxiong Palace, thousands of campers were in chaos, you squeeze me, I squeeze you, everyone was messed up, and everyone was scared and lost their souls.
Fear and uneasiness spread throughout the temple, whether it was the old and weak women and children or the remnants of the retreating rear battalion, there was no hope that they would be able to hold out until reinforcements arrived.
The soldiers also lost the courage to fight again, and when they retreated from the front, many soldiers rushed all the way down and withdrew, which would be no strength at all, and they would sit or fall to the ground, a picture of not asking the sky.
Most of the weapons in their hands have been discarded, and there are less than two or three hundred people with weapons in their hands, and the others are empty-handed, looking around blankly, with no life in their eyes.
They can't be blamed for being so unbearable, because they never thought that the Qing army's attack would be so fierce, and the battle would be so cruel, they did everything they could, but they still couldn't stop the Qing army from going up the mountain, let alone save those injured comrades, which made them exhausted.
What's even more fatal is that the Qing army appeared in the back mountain, which was never expected before, and the appearance of this Qing army surprised everyone, and the screams from the back mountain made everyone even more suffocated.
Up to now, the soldiers, whether they are soldiers or security guards, or those treasury troops, old and weak men, have lost the courage to fight again, and they have also lost hope, and everyone knows that the reinforcements claimed by General Affairs Song may not be able to come to save them.
Soldiers without hope and courage were like wood, and although there were soldiers guarding the dangerous places they had deployed in advance, the word "despair" was clearly printed on their faces, and the cries of the women and children crowded in the square made them even more demoralized.
The collapse is just around the corner.
In this situation where the whole battalion almost collapsed, the Qing army suddenly stopped attacking, and then began to loudly persuade to surrender outside, which made some people in the rear camp have strange thoughts, and Lin Wanfu, the ambassador of the public treasury, was the first to respond to the persuasion of the Qing army, and this reaction was not to find his daughter whose fate was unknown, nor to find his sons who did not know where to hide, but to find a group of subordinates when he was the ambassador of the treasury.
These subordinates are actually all Lin Wanfu's previous rice shop guys, and there are as many as twenty or thirty people, because they are in charge of the public treasury, these people have not been transferred to the defense line.
However, more than half of the money and grain in the public treasury had been lost when they retreated up the mountain, and the rest was placed by Song Xianggong in a side hall behind the Daxiong Palace, which would be guarded by these guys, a few soldiers, and more than a dozen security guards.
After Lin Wanfu found these guys, he told them that this battle could not be fought, and if they continued to fight, everyone could only die, if it fell now, although they would definitely have to suffer, but at least their lives could be saved.
The guys originally listened to him, the proprietor, and they all wanted to save their lives, so they agreed to the old proprietor's request and contacted the camp elders and camp managers of each battalion on his behalf.
Soon, the guys came to report one after another, except for the battalion of the original Laofengzhuang copper mine, the battalion elders and camp managers of the other battalions agreed to surrender to the Qing army.
With so many camp elders and camp managers agreeing, Lin Wanfu suddenly had confidence, but it was not enough for the camp elders and camp managers to agree, he had to persuade those who had knives in their hands, otherwise he would have to put his life on the line.
Those who had knives in their hands couldn't beat the Qing army, but it was a trivial matter to kill Lin Wanfu before the Qing army attacked.
At this moment, those people probably won't care about him Lin Wanfu's daughter is Zhou Qianhu's maid, and he Lin Wanfu is Zhou Qianhu's cheap old man.
For the sake of safety, Lin Wanfu found the camp elders and camp managers who agreed to surrender, and then took them to find Zhao Sihai together.
After seeing Zhao Sihai, none of the camp elders refused to speak, and Lin Wanfu had no choice but to assume this disgraceful role.
After listening to Lin Wanfu's words about surrendering, Zhao Sihai did not turn his face and kill people with a knife, but hesitated for a moment and agreed to go to Song Xianggong to talk about surrender, which made Lin Wanfu and the camp elders relieved and overjoyed.
Some people wonder why this Zhao Sihai is a close confidant of Zhou Shixiang, so he shouldn't have agreed to surrender, but why did he agree Others secretly solved his puzzles, what cronies are not cronies, that Zhou Shixiang and Zhao Sihai were bandits before, how much backbone do you expect him to have in this bandit.
The so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, if he doesn't surrender, he is dead, at this juncture, you should really be martyred for Zhou Shixiang, it's not that he can save his life oshow7 t1706231537:
