The servants blocking the front consciously gave way.
"Father!" Yuan Feng looked at his father unwillingly.
Yuan Chaoju reached out and grabbed the knife in Yuan Feng's hand, and said: "Surrender, the entire Nao County has been captured. If we continue to fight here, we will only lose our lives in vain."
As he spoke, he used all his strength to pull out the knife in Yuan Feng's hand.
It took several attempts to get the knife out of Yuan Feng's hand.
Bang.
He casually threw the knife on the ground, turned to look at the servants around him, and said: "Throw away all the guys in your hands. With this thing in your hands, you can be shot down by someone else if you can't get close." turn."
The surrounding servants showed hesitation, but they did not give up the dick in their hands like Yuan Feng did.
"That's all, you are the servants of the Prime Minister of Guo County. As an outsider, I can't command you. Feng'er, please stand aside with me. Let them decide the life and death of the Zhou family." Yuan Chaoju tugged on Yuan Feng's arm. Arm, pulling the other person to hide aside.
Yuan Feng allowed himself to be dragged away.
"It turns out that you are the commander who escaped from Daizhou. It seems that I was lucky. I caught a county magistrate and unexpectedly caught a big fish. Go and catch a few people and catch both of them." The captain of the squadron said to himself The subordinates waved.
Several soldiers stepped forward and tied up the Yuan family, father and son, with hemp ropes.
Yuan Chaoju and Yuan Feng did not resist at all.
"Go back and tell Prime Minister Zhou personally, stop resisting in vain. It's useless. Come out and accept the surrender as soon as possible. Maybe you can save the lives of your family." Yuan Chaoju persuaded the servants who were blocking the backyard.
Some smart servants have already run back to deliver the message.
"Raise the musket and prepare." The captain of the combat squad ordered to his subordinates.
The distance between the two sides was enough for the fire cannon to hit with perfect accuracy. He was going to use the fire cannon to clear out the servants in front of him who were trying to resist.
Fire blunderbuss were raised in the hands of the Tiger Flag soldiers.
"What are you still doing? Why don't you throw down your hands and surrender immediately? If you don't hurry up, let's wait for someone to deal with it!" Yuan Chaoju saw that the other party was serious about taking action, and he didn't want these servants to die in vain, so he couldn't help but persuade him. .
The recruiting team leader did not immediately order the firing, giving the servants in front of him time to choose.
"Drop what you're holding, drop what you're holding quickly, we surrender, surrender immediately."
As the voice came out, Zhou Xian Cheng ran over with the help of his servants.
The soldier squad leader raised his right hand to signal his subordinates not to fire the gun in his hand for the time being.
"Quick, I've lost the stick in my hand, hurry up." Zhou Xian Cheng walked up to the nearest servant, raised his hand and slapped him on the cheek.
The servant was so frightened that he quickly dropped the stick in his hand.
When the other servants around saw it, they also dropped their weapons.
"We surrender, we surrender. I just ask you military masters not to harm the women at home." Seeing that all the servants had thrown away their weapons, Zhou Xian Cheng walked to the front of the crowd with a humble expression.
The captain of the squadron snorted coldly and said: "We at Tiger Character Banner are not soldiers and bandits who harm the people, let alone do anything to the women in your family. Since you have surrendered, then take my people and kill everyone." If you find it, you will need to be detained for the time being, but don’t worry, the female family members will be detained separately.”
"Thank you, Master Jun." Zhou County Cheng bowed humbly.
The captain of the military squad ordered a team to go with the county to see the female family members, and he himself took a few people to take the Yuan family father and son away alone.
The resistance in Guoxian County was much lighter than that in Daizhou. With the fall of the city, all the resistance forces in the city were quickly wiped out by the tiger-character banner army.
The army stayed in Nao County to rest for one night. At dawn the next day, only a group of troops was left to temporarily garrison in Nao County. The remaining troops set off towards Xinkou Village in Xinzhou.
Another army of the Tiger Character Banner entered Taiyuan Prefecture from Ningwuguan, captured Weixing County in the west of the town, and was advancing towards Jingle, Lan County.
News of the frequent losses of prefectures and counties in the direction of Yanmen Pass and Ningwuguan reached Yangqu.
As the capital of Taiyuan Prefecture, Yangqu, Shanxi Governor's Yamen and Shanxi Chengxuan Government Envoy Si Yamen are all located here.
After Taiyuan Prefecture failed to send troops to Datong to encircle and suppress the Tiger Banner last time, its military strength was less than half of its former strength. It was not even enough to defend the city, let alone expel the rebels in Taiyuan Prefecture.
The governor's Yamen of Shanxi and Si Yamen, the envoy of the Proclamation Committee, sent an urgent request for help from 800 miles away.
Far away in the capital city of Beizhili, there was constant good news after the new year. The great victory of Ningyuan made the whole court feel excited.
First there was the great victory in Jinzhou, and then there was the great victory in Ningyuan. Many people in the court felt that the slave thieves in Liaodong were like grasshoppers after the autumn, and they would not be able to survive for long.
Tianqi even held a banquet for the officials outside the Meridian Gate to celebrate these two great victories against slave thieves.
The haze that the Liaodong slave thieves had brought to the Ming Dynasty for so many years was now gone.
The two great victories in Liaodong gave the ministers hope of victory over the slave thieves, and Liaodong was no longer a hot potato. Many civil and military ministers in the DPRK began to think of Liaodong.
Now everyone can see that going to Liaodong at this time is to gain merit. When the slave thieves are eliminated, he will become a marquis if not a duke.
"Report, Taiyuan Prefecture is urgent."
A soldier fell off his horse, quickly got up, and stumbled towards the Meridian Gate.
The civil and military officials who were celebrating became quiet because of the eight-hundred-mile rush.
The eight-hundred-mile urgent letter sent from Taiyuan Prefecture made many people understand that something big had happened in Taiyuan Prefecture. Many people had even thought that this urgent document was related to the Liu thief from Datong.
A young eunuch hurriedly ran to the soldier, took the wooden box containing the urgent secret letter from the soldier, and ran back.
The palm print eunuch took the wooden box from the little eunuch, opened it and took out the secret letter from it, then returned to Tianqi, held it up with both hands and handed it over.
Tianqi opened the secret letter and read through it.
Snapped!
After reading the secret letter, Tianqi slapped the table in front of him where food was served, and poured out the wine glass on it. The wine inside dripped down the side of the table.
The cabinet elders and nobles who were closest to Tianqi felt their hearts sinking when they saw this scene.
"Let Mr. Gu Ge and the others take a look at it." Tian Qi pointed at the eight hundred miles that he had thrown on the ground and picked up the secret letter.
The palm print eunuch carefully picked it up and handed it to the little eunuch beside him.
The young eunuch walked to Gu Bingqian's desk, bowed and handed over the secret letter.
Gu Bingqian, who received the secret letter, already had a guess in his mind.
When he saw the content above, his heart sank.
Not long after the Ningyuan victory, news came out at the celebration banquet that Liu's army had invaded Taiyuan Mansion. He didn't want the emperor to be so angry.
"Look at it all, all the pavilion elders." Tianqi instructed the other pavilion elders to also read the eight-hundred-mile secret letter.
