Looking at the horrified expressions of those on the city wall, Yuchi Gong directly shouted loudly: "General Gaoli of Liaodong City, listen, this general is the Duke of E of the Tang Dynasty, Shangzhu State, General Yuchi Jingde of Youwuhou, the modern representative His Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty orders you to open the city and surrender immediately!"
"The Tang Army treats prisoners preferentially! You and I are from the same origin, but if you still persist in your stubbornness and end up in trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Yuchi Jingde's words made many generals on the city wall change their expressions slightly. Of course they had heard of Yuchi Jingde and other famous names. He was a general of the Tang Dynasty. They didn't expect that the black man with a gray beard in front of him was the name of the person. How could they remain calm under the shadow of the tree?
Especially that loud noise, and the chaotic shouts in the city behind him were still coming. The soldiers on the city wall were still confused at this moment.
"General Yuchi, we need to think about it." Sun Daiyin was silent for a moment, and then said loudly.
"Give you time to wait for a stick of incense." Yuchi Jingde left a direct message and left.
Seeing Yuchi Jingde's retreating figure, Sun Daiyin said directly: "Go, ask General Zhao and several other officials to come here quickly. In addition, order the soldiers at the breach in the city wall to stay still for the time being."
"yes!"
The messengers took the order and left, but Sun Daiyin silently observed Datang's formation.
When Datang was preparing to attack, and their forward troops were at most more than a hundred steps away from the city wall, it was only then that Sun Daiyin saw clearly the larger number of crossbows that had been hidden in the Tang camp.
These crossbow arrows are not as big as the large bed crossbows, but they are definitely much larger than ordinary military crossbows.
The number of these medium-sized crossbows is even more densely arranged, just behind the three rows of archers behind the front shield soldiers.
And there were pots and pots of arrows placed next to them. Judging from the number, they were probably not in the dozens.
More importantly, Sun Daiyin found at least a dozen more shield vehicles like the one just now in Datang's queue. No one knew how many more things below could unleash that kind of power.
If these things were sent to the root of the city wall, they would be powerless to stop them. They had already tried just now.
Zhao Wu and others arrived here quickly. After they arrived, Sun Daiyin did not greet or talk nonsense at all. Instead, he looked directly at these people and said, "Everyone, I am ready to surrender. What do you think?"
"General Sun, you are the highest officer in Liaodong City, so we will naturally obey your orders." Another official said directly without hesitation. He was frightened.
The Tang Dynasty's methods have exceeded their imagination, but the strong city wall was destroyed as if it were made of paper. Now there are 100,000 Tang Dynasty troops outside, what can they do to resist?
If you must resist, there is only one end, death.
"General Sun, it doesn't matter to us, but there are tens of thousands of people in this city, and there are 20,000 soldiers on the city wall. Now the Tang Dynasty has used unknown means to destroy our city wall in an instant. If it continues, it will anger the Tang Dynasty. Tang, I'm afraid there's not much left in this city." Another general said.
"General Sun, just give the order." Zhao Wu was too lazy to talk nonsense. He had already seen the current situation. No one was willing to die in a certain death situation. None of these people could be said to be loyal to the country.
Especially when they were facing Datang.
After all, many people in Goguryeo were originally Han people. How loyal do you expect them to be to Goguryeo?
The reason why we were able to resist the former Sui Dynasty was because the former Sui Dynasty was really pulling the crotch, and the people in the Central Plains at that time were in dire straits and had no future.
But the Tang Dynasty is different now, especially when the Tang Dynasty will not kill them all, so the choice is already very simple.
"I understand. Let me bear this crime alone." Sun Daiyin was also straightforward, and he nodded directly.
After all, as the commander-in-chief, he could not escape this responsibility no matter what, so Sun Daiyin did not make any excuses.
After getting the consent of these people, Sun Daiyin said directly: "The messenger."
"General." The messenger from afar ran over quickly.
"Now order all soldiers to lay down their weapons, open all city gates, and surrender to the Tang Dynasty." Sun Daiyin directly issued an order. After speaking, he untied the sword from his waist without hesitation and threw it on the city wall.
Several messengers were stunned for a moment, and then they quickly started running in two directions without saying anything.
Several generals following Sun Daiyin also dropped their arrows.
The soldiers not far away looked at each other, and then silently put the spears inside on the ground. All this quickly began to spread from the current city gate to all directions.
Li Shiji and others in the distance were happy when they saw this scene.
I didn't expect that this battle would be so easy, and the other party would actually surrender.
"Send the order! The vanguard enters the city as quickly as possible, controls all the main roads, and orders no one to harass the people. If the prisoners do not resist, no one is allowed to beat, insult or abuse the prisoners."
"yes!"
Soon, the Tang cavalry outside the city took the lead in rushing towards the city gate. Sun Daiyin and the others naturally had no tricks and allowed the Tang soldiers to quickly enter the city and then began to control every corner of Liaodong City.
Li Shiji did not enter the city. The entire Liaodong City was temporarily handed over to the control of the 5,000 Tang troops led by forward general Cheng Huailiang. All the captive soldiers had left Liaodong City and were temporarily detained in military camps outside the city.
The first person Li Shiji saw was naturally Zhao Wu, "General Zhao, you should be credited with the first contribution to the capture of Liaodong City this time. I will definitely report it to His Majesty, and His Majesty will ask for your credit."
After Li Shiji saw Zhao Wu, he immediately took two quick steps to greet him, and held his arm with both hands as he wanted to salute.
"Ashamed, I just did some trivial things, but the Tang army was too powerful, so Sun Daiyin and the others didn't want to resist." Zhao Wu said with some shame.
"Hahaha, what General Zhao said is wrong. Without General Zhao's intelligence, our army would naturally not be able to formulate relevant strategies. But after all, taking Liaodong City is a good thing. Let me introduce these generals to General Zhao... "Li Shiji pulled Zhao Wu and said enthusiastically.
He knew the importance of these people very well, so Li Shiji did not suggest to praise the other party, because without them, Datang would indeed have to go through a lot of extra procedures.
Now with them, it can be said that Datang's victory over Goguryeo was twice the result with half the effort.
Moreover, the city of Liaodong, which is a major military city, was captured, which means that other cities in the entire Liaodong front line are not of concern!
