As soon as he finished speaking, before General Xia Shaoyuan's soldiers were ready, another barrage of arrows was fired at General Xia Shaoyuan's soldiers indiscriminately.

The soldiers who had to dodge in the future were hit by arrows.

Seeing this, General Xia Shaoyuan could not believe that he was late.

So, when he saw General Xia Shaoyuan hiding behind the stone, he poked his head out. Just when he was about to put his head out and explain that he was here to help them, an arrow almost hit General Xia Shaoyuan. The frightened General Xia Shaoyuan hurriedly hid under the stone. behind.

Fortunately, the stone was tall and big enough to protect General Xia Shaoyuan and a few soldiers.

"What's going on? Are we late?" General Xia Shaoyuan asked the soldier hiding beside him.

This soldier can be said to be the assistant of General Xia Shaoyuan. When fighting against Japanese pirates, whenever something happened that needed to be reported, Xia Shaoyuan would let him go.

Listening to General Xia Shaoyuan's question, the soldier carefully stretched out his head. After taking a look at the situation on the other side of the city gate, he hurriedly put his head back. Looking at General Xia Shaoyuan's gaze, he said what he guessed. He came out and said: "General, these city gates are closed."

"Nonsense, I don't know whether this level is closed or not. I'm asking you, has this city been captured by those unruly people a long time ago and are we too late?" General Xia Shaoyuan expressed his question clearly. .

After hearing this, the soldier was just about to stick his head out to take a closer look, when several arrows were fired at him, which scared the soldier and quickly retracted his head.

"General, this probably...may have been captured." Xiaobing guessed.

After listening to the soldier's words, General Xia Shaoyuan didn't know what to do for a moment, and said to himself: "What can we do? The city gates are closed, how can we fight this battle? We have been unable to fight in these years. Young Japanese pirates, but this is all a frontal fight, how can there be anything like this. We don’t have this city-breaking vehicle, we don’t have this catapult, we don’t have this long ladder, and there are very few people who can use bows and arrows, so how can we fight this battle? ?”

Hearing what General Xia Shaoyuan said, these soldiers quickly lost the courage to fight.

Chunxu, who was on the tower, felt a little happy when he saw the motionless soldiers outside the city.

Seeing this, He Yuhong walked over, looked at Chun Xu who was smiling, and asked: "Brother Xu, why don't they move?"

Listening to He Yuhong's words, Chunxu smiled slightly. After watching all the movements outside the city, he answered with a smile on his face: "Look, the reason why they didn't move is because they were afraid that they wouldn't win. Secondly, they didn't move. Seeing the city gates closed, they could not do anything.”

After listening to Chunxu's words, He Yuhong laughed happily: "It seems that we will win this battle."

Seeing He Yuhong's confident smile, Chunxu said: "It's better to be careful and not be careless."

"Brother Xu is right." He Yuhong said.

Outside the city, at this moment, the soldier asked: "General, can we still fight this battle?"

General Xia Shaoyuan shook his head helplessly. He originally wanted to let some of these soldiers run away, but when he thought about it carefully, who didn't want to live in the face of a war? General Xia Shaoyuan had no choice but to say: "Fight! This is what the court wants, let's just do it." You must do it." After saying this, looking at the soldiers one by one, General Xia Shaoyuan shouted: "Everyone! Listen to the order! Capture Yishifu City and eliminate the unruly people!"

After giving an order, hide

The soldiers who were hiding behind various obstacles stood up one after another, holding crossbows and swords in their hands and charging towards the city gate.

Seeing such a situation, General Xia Shaoyuan understood that the battle was completely lost. How could we fight without long ladders, city-breaking vehicles, and catapults? Can't fight.

But not wanting to give in, General Xia Shaoyuan decided to give it a try.

If the enemy in front of him were not unruly people, but a well-equipped army, General Xia Shaoyuan would definitely consider retreating. However, the enemy in front of him was not a well-equipped army, but just a team of ordinary people. General Xia Shaoyuan still loves to save face.

Seeing the soldiers outside the city begin to charge, Chunxu shouted: "All brothers! Prepare to meet the enemy! Guard the city gate and don't let them step in!"

As soon as Chunxu shouted, the soldiers holding crossbows on the tower stretched their bows tightly and waited for the order.

"Let go!" Chunxu shouted.

I saw hundreds of arrows shooting quickly outside the city, hitting about dozens of soldiers.

Looking at the soldiers outside the city gate, they can only use bows and arrows. However, how can the arrows shot from below the city tower hit the enemy above the city tower with a high probability.

Seeing that the enemy did not have the upper hand, He Yuhong walked towards Chunxu.

"Brother Chunxu, this... they don't have a long ladder, how can they fight with us? Isn't it obvious that they are going to lose?" He Yuhong said.

Listening to He Yuhong's words, Chunxu looked carefully at the soldiers running outside the city gate, and it was really what Yuhong said.

"Brother Hong, what do you think?" Chunxu asked He Yuhong the question.

Listening to Brother Chunxu's words, He Yuhong didn't understand what Chunxu wanted to see at first. In an instant, He Yuhong understood: "Brother Xu, how about we make them admit defeat?"

He Yuhong's words were very much in line with his own wishes. Although those people were from the imperial court, they were also living people. Chunxu didn't want to see so many people die because of the war.

After thinking for a while, Chunxu shouted to the brothers holding bows and arrows aside: "Brothers! Stop shooting!"

Then, looking at the soldiers running outside the city, Chunxu shouted: "Those outside the city, listen! If you want to survive, put down your weapons and join us to avoid this cruel war! There is no shame in surrendering! Don't take it Risk your own life to resist fearlessly! Join us and have food to eat together, clothing to wear together, money to earn together, and fields to farm together! Don’t fight for this court that doesn’t care about the people!”

When Chunxu shouted, the soldiers running towards the city gate stopped one after another, including General Xia Shaoyuan.

The soldiers who stopped sat and looked to the right, not knowing what to do for a while.

At this time, General Xia Shaoyuan began to have an ideological struggle in his mind, whether it was better to resist or to submit.

Fortunately, General Xia Shaoyuan was still a smart man and shouted: "Listen to those on the tower! I just want to ask you, why did you rebel?!"

After hearing the question, Chunxu took a deep breath and answered loudly: "Of course it is so that the people can have enough food and clothing and not be oppressed by the imperial court!"

After listening, General Xia Shaoyuan stood there and thought about it.

Surrender. If the generals in the imperial court listen to this, they will laugh loudly. But if you don't surrender, not only your own life but also the lives of these soldiers will also be lost.

At this time, a flash of inspiration occurred, and General Xia Shaoyuan thought of a good idea.

Seeing that General Xia Shaoyuan did not respond for a long time, the soldier asked: "General, do we want to surrender?"

General Xia Shaoyuan smiled slightly and spoke his thoughts in the soldier's ear.

After listening to General Xia Shaoyuan's thoughts, the soldier smiled broadly: "Okay, we all listen to you, General."

At this time, General Xia Shaoyuan shouted: "We surrender! We are willing to join!" After shouting, General Xia Shaoyuan looked at the soldiers standing aside and shouted: "Everyone obeys the order! Put down all your weapons! We surrender!"

Listening to General Xia Shaoyuan's words, all the soldiers put down their weapons and stood motionless, waiting for them whether life or death.

Seeing that the soldiers outside the city had surrendered, He Yuhong looked at Chunxu with a smile on his face.

"Listen to those outside the city! Put down your weapons and walk toward the city gate!" Chunxu shouted.

After shouting, he saw that the soldiers outside the city did as Chunxu said, and cautiously came to the city gate one by one.

Seeing this, Chunxu looked at He Yuhong with a smile on his face and ordered: "Go down below and let Zheng Zhui tell the brothers to open the city gate and watch their every move."

"Okay." After responding, He Yuhong hurriedly walked away.

Seeing Zheng Chui, He Yuhong ordered before Zheng Chui could ask: "Open the city gate!"

As soon as he heard that the city gate was about to be opened, Zheng Zhui, who didn't know anything yet, asked, "What are you doing to open the city gate?"

Seeing Zheng Zhui's uninformed look, Chunxu said: "This is Brother Chunxu's order. The soldiers outside have surrendered. Let you open the city gate and watch their every move. Wait for Brother Chunxu's orders. "

After listening to He Yuhong's words, Zheng Zhui said with a smile on his face: "Surrender so soon?"

"Come on, just open it quickly." He Yuhong said.

Zheng Zhui hurriedly gave instructions: "Brothers! Open the city gate! The rest of the brothers, hold the tools in your hands and watch their every move."

After Zheng Zhui gave his instructions, the city gate opened, and he saw thousands of soldiers without weapons standing outside the city gate, motionless like a mouse meeting a group of watching cats.

At this time, Chunxu also walked down from the tower.

Seeing these thousands of soldiers who had thrown away their weapons, he said: "As long as you are willing to surrender, we are all our own. The court today is no longer the court of the past. The court today only cares about collecting money." , don't care about the life and death of the people at all. It is only right to choose to join us." After saying this, he looked at the soldiers who had no offensive power, looked at He Yuhong on the side, and said: "You order the brothers to take care of them , escort them to the government office. Be careful."

"Okay." After responding, He Yuhong shouted to his brothers: "All brothers, listen, send our people back to the yamen. Be careful! Our military regulations are naturally their military regulations, and no one is allowed to do so. They make mistakes!”

"yes!"

Later, He Yuhong's brothers held weapons in their hands, gathered around the soldiers, and escorted them.

General Xia Shaoyuan said nothing and acted as if he didn't hear what they said.
