Chapter 164 Surrender
Twenty thousand soldiers besieged the city.

The seven or eight meter high city wall was crowded with people.

They hadn't been in a war for several years.

for a while.People in Jinzhou City are panicked.

Although Wu Chengming, the general soldier of Jinzhou, received Shen Xuan's letter of war ten days ago.

But apart from collecting food, he only opened one city gate.There is no other way.

Although there are forts in the four corners of Jinzhou.

But far from it.

Only light small guns such as tiger crouching guns and Francophones.

Without a heavy cannon like the Red Clothes Cannon, the range is simply not enough.

On the other hand, look at Shen Xuan.

Dozens of Type 90 [-]mm light mortars have been erected.

In fact, if you attack hard.

The thousands of troops in Jinzhou are not enough to watch.

However, to avoid attrition and casualties of soldiers, Shen Xuan did not do so.

Set up the Type 90 [-]mm light mortar.

Let the snipers get ready.

The AK47 has a maximum range of more than 2000 meters.In other words, if the aim is accurate, the target can also be killed two kilometers away.

"Marshal. The small steel cannon has been set up, and the snipers are also ready. Do you want to attack?"

Cui Yuanwu and others were a little excited.

After all, something they have never dared to think about for 20 years.

It finally came true today.

Let's snipe with a rifle first.

Let's see if the legendary 2 kilometers is lethal,

"Yes!"

Cui Yuanwu immediately ordered: "The commander-in-chief has ordered that the sniper shoot freely after aiming."

The herald waved his banner.

Subsequently.

Gunshots rang out one after another.

There are no scopes and no telescopes.

In fact, such a long distance is almost the same as blind typing.

Shen Xuan just had the idea of ​​having fun with the gun.

however.

No one thought it was right.

Soldiers lying on the wall and watching from a distance.

One after another fell to the ground and died.

This frightened a group of officers and soldiers, and their hearts trembled.

They were beaten so hard that they didn't dare to take their heads off.

Lu fought for a while.

Shen Xuan ordered to fire.

This is completely different from before.Dozens of light mortars fired simultaneously,

The sound was loud.

The city walls were either chipped, and the bricks and stones fell.

Or soldiers were blown up alive.

Wu Chengming, the commander-in-chief, heard the news reported below.

Brows furrowed.

The deputy general saw the chief officer's appearance and said hurriedly: "Sir, this Ming army appears out of nowhere and has such powerful firearms. What should we do now?"

Wu Chengming didn't know what to do.

At this moment, he is also distraught.

There are tens of thousands of people on the other side.

It has far surpassed Jinzhou's military strength.

And judging from the current situation, Shengjing was already occupied.

There are tens of thousands of Eight Banners soldiers and civilians in that place, and there are several times more soldiers than Jinzhou.

They were all beaten down.

How could Jinzhou City be an opponent with such a small force.

Wu Chengming thought for a while and asked, "I don't know, Liangpeng, do you have any countermeasures?"

This sentence is asking in disguise.

"Hey! The heavens have the virtue of being good at life. There is a way that when the world is in chaos, a wise king will appear. For the brutal, there will be heroes."

When Lu Liangpeng said this, he kept silent.

"I said Liangpeng, don't say these polite words now. Just say what you have. It's just you and me here,"

Lu Liangpeng took a step forward and whispered in his ear: "My lord, why don't we surrender! Before the two armies confront each other, or if Ming Jun attacks the city, it will be too late for regret."

Originally, Wu Chengming had this idea.

Hearing the thoughts of the deputy, they coincided with each other.

But as the chief general, he couldn't agree immediately.That would be too contemptuous.

After thinking for a while, he sighed slowly.

Lu Liangpeng saw that the guy in front of him was still pretending.

In my heart, I look down upon it.

This is imminent.If the opponent ordered to attack the city, it would be too late to surrender.

"My lord, don't hesitate anymore. I'm afraid it will be too late for regrets." Lu Liangpeng reminded again.

"Okay! Now, even if I wait for a few people, I will be powerless to resist! However, it is better to write a letter of surrender first, and then send someone to negotiate."

Lu Liangpeng heard this.

Immediately understood.

have to admit.Wu Chengming still has a certain ability to achieve this position.

"Yes! Your Excellency. But who does the messenger send?"

Wu Chengming glanced at the other party: "Liangpeng should handle this matter in person. I can rest assured that you will handle the matter."

Lu Liangpeng had no choice but to agree.

Immediately, he took a confidant, and then headed towards the Ming army with a white flag on his shoulders.

Shen Xuan watched the small steel cannon fire two rounds.

Back in the account, ready to rest.

Anyway, I am not in a hurry, whoever dares to go out of the city to fight in the field, even if a hundred thousand cavalry come, will undoubtedly die.

So, play slowly!
Shen Xuan collapsed on the rocking chair and hadn't been lying down for a long time.

The soldiers outside the tent came: "Commander, General Cui wants to see you."

Shen Xuan: "Let him in."

Cui Yuanwu entered the tent: "The last general will see the commander in chief."

"Well, what's the matter?"

"Commander, Jinzhou Commander-in-Chief Wu Chengming sent someone to hand over the letter of surrender."

"Oh, this guy really knows the times! But if he doesn't come in person, call someone to come down. Does he think he has enough face? Let me tell you that the chief soldier should come in person, otherwise he won't accept the surrender."

"Yes! Master!"

Cui Yuanwu walked out after finishing speaking.

Coming outside the tent, the whole person's momentum suddenly changed.

Seeing that something was wrong, Lu Liangpeng hurriedly bowed and asked, "General Cui, what orders does Marshal Shen have?"

"Hmph! The commander-in-chief said, let you be so troublesome and general soldiers. Why put on airs when death is imminent, if you dare to be disrespectful, you will be slaughtered!"

Cui Yuanwu left without saying a word.

Leaving Lu Liangpeng standing alone.

Immediately, he followed quickly, and took out two ingots of gold ingots from his pocket.

"General Cui, please stay."

Cui Yuanwu also slowed down.

Lu Liangpeng stuffed the gold ingot in his hand.

Cui Yuanwu finally weighed it.

"You don't have to do that either. Just go and call your commander-in-chief to come over."

"Okay, thank you General Cui for your message."

After Lu Liangpeng finished speaking, he was about to leave.

"Wait." Cui Yuanwu shouted.

Lu Liangpeng's heart tightened, and he couldn't help thinking: This guy in front of him is too greedy, two ingots of gold ingots are not enough.

Turning around, he took out two more ingots in pain.

But he didn't expect it.

Cui Yuanwu took his hand and put down the two ingots of gold.

"Let me tell you, don't try to buy me off with gold and silver in the future, this thing doesn't work well. If the commander-in-chief finds out, I'm doomed. Let's go!"

Lu Liangpeng was a little confused.

Here, there are still people who don't want gold and silver?
What an anecdote!
There are also officials who do not take money.

"Don't look at me like that. The commander-in-chief has regulations. Once corruption and bribery are found out, if it is serious, you will lose your head. Even if it is the lightest, you will be dismissed. You just need to be obedient and act according to the orders of the commander-in-chief. What's the problem?"

After Cui Yuanwu finished speaking, he waved his hand and ignored the other party.

Lu Liangpeng took a deep breath, stepped out of the tent, got on his horse, and galloped away.

After returning to Jinzhou.

Tell the commander-in-chief Wu Chengming what he saw.

Hear what the other person has to say.

Wu Chengming couldn't help sighing.

"A team that doesn't collect money, has such sharp firearms under this kind of military discipline. If there is no accident, the Qing Dynasty will definitely be defeated!"

After speaking, he stood up abruptly.

"Let's go! Go and meet this Ming army's Marshal Shen."

Wu Chengming may have forgotten that he was once a general of the former Ming Dynasty.
