In order to restrain the hot air balloons of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, there were people who were escorted by soldiers on the city.
Whether it was the real people or the soldiers in disguise, it is impossible to know.
But the head of Weichu Mansion should have been forced to have no way to use such a method.
There was no reason for the Great Song Dynasty to pity the people of their Dali, but in the Shanyan Mansion, the Song army did not harass and poison the people, and the signal released by this made the chief manager of Deweichu take luck. Moreover, the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty valued the people, which is already known to the world.
Without such a method, they would not be able to stop the Song army's grenadiers and hot air balloons. Because, the Song army still has a new type of weapon to restrain hot air balloons.
Zhang Hongwei and Liu Zhuwen stood under the city, each holding a telescope to look at the city.
In the faint light of the fire, they also vaguely saw those people.
Zhang Hongwei sneered and said: "The head of this Weichu Mansion is really in a hurry to jump over the wall, and he actually used the people in their city to make a flesh and blood wall. β
Liu Zhuwen chuckled, "But we have to admit that his method is indeed very effective, isn't it?" β
"Alas......"
Zhang Hongwei sighed, "If the emperor doesn't strictly order that the people are not allowed to be harmed, maybe just a few forbidden troops of our Zhennan Military Region will be enough to pacify Dali." β
"Your Majesty, this is a far-sighted plan."
Liu Zhuwen's eyes showed admiration, "It's easy to lose the hearts of the people, but it's hard to win the hearts of the people." If I behave like the Yuan army in our Great Song Dynasty, maybe after a few decades, I won't be able to really make the people in Dali recognize the imperial court. In the end, there will be more help for the righteous and little help for the unjust, and the civil rebels will emerge in an endless stream, just like those rebels in our Great Song Dynasty, who constantly rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty. And we don't disturb the people or harm the people, but we can greatly reduce the hatred of the people of Dali for the Great Song Dynasty. In the future, if the Dali army is defeated, and the emperor will supplement it with various pacification policies, Dali will be able to truly become the land of our Great Song Dynasty in a very short period of time. The people of Dali will also become the people of our Song Dynasty. β
Zhang Hongwei was slightly stunned, and then smiled, "You readers still know more." β
Only then he frowned again, "But in this case, how can we take this Weichu Mansion?" β
The look on his face was actually not relaxed, on the contrary, it was very solemn, "When we arrived at this Weichu Mansion, Dali Kingdom was afraid that we also received the news." There is not much time left for us. β
No matter how confident he was, he would not feel that he and Liu Zhuwen would be able to defeat those Dali forbidden troops in Weichu Mansion and Dali National Capital with less than 20,000 forbidden troops.
Not to mention that there are tens of thousands of forbidden troops in Weichu Mansion, and in the capital of Dali, the forbidden army is even more than 100,000.
Liu Zhuwen shook the fan gently, but turned back to the herald and said, "Go and release all the soldiers." Let them go into the city to make trouble. β
The herald didn't ask much and walked away.
Zhang Hongwei's face showed a look of deep doubt, "Commander Liu, what do you mean by this?" How can these soldiers really help us? β
It was only a few days since they captured the soldiers of Xiushan County and Shanxian Mansion, and although they kept sending people to lobby for a few days, it was obviously impossible to really make them surrender.
After all, this is in the territory of Dali, not the territory of the Song Dynasty. Moreover, the current Dali is still profound, and there is no sign of being destroyed.
No matter which Dali general Ren is, it is impossible for him to choose to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty so easily.
Liu Zhuwen chuckled, "Commander Zhang, do you think it is impossible for these soldiers to really surrender to our dynasty, but those people in the city, will they think so?" β
Zhang Hongwei's eyes fell towards the city again, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Liu Zhuwen said again: "These soldiers have already surrendered, and it is impossible to be trusted like that." At this time, our army let them go, and they were afraid that they would be full of thoughts about how to cooperate with the defenders of Weichu Mansion to block us after entering the city, so as to avenge the defeat of the army. And in such a state of mind, if those people in the city do not let them into the city because they do not trust them, what do you think they will think in their hearts? β
Zhang Hongwei groaned slightly and said, "Of course it's a big disappointment. It is even possible that it may actually surrender to our army. β
Then he couldn't help frowning, "But what if those people in the city let them into the city?" β
"That's even better."
Liu Zhuwen said: "It is impossible for them to fully believe these soldiers. More than 10,000 soldiers will enter the city, and it will inevitably be suspicious in every way, and when the time comes, it will be difficult for us to interfere with it, and it will be difficult not to mess up. β
Zhang Hongwei lost his mind again, and then muttered with emotion, "Fortunately, Commander Liu, you are from our Great Song Dynasty." β
Liu Zhuwen smiled and was noncommittal.
The tens of thousands of soldiers who had been captured in the army broke away from the army in such a night and ran towards the gate of Weichu Mansion.
None of them had blades in their hands, but their armor had not been stripped off.
There was still some distance from the city gate, and there were people in the army who had internal qi and shouted: "We are the good interpretation of the mansion and the Xiushan army, quickly let us into the city." β
This made the soldiers of Weichu Mansion, who originally planned to release arrows and throw thunder, slightly stunned.
There was an old man in an official robe standing at the head of the city, his eyes slightly condensed.
This old man looked like he was already sixty or seventy years old, and his beard was slightly white, but his aura was very heavy, and he was not angry and arrogant.
Such people are often in high positions.
And this person is Xing Yuande, the head of Weichu Mansion.
Xing Yuande is also a Dali minister with strong roots, although Dali is eight prefectures and four counties, but the status of the government is slightly higher than the county. Xing Yuande's status in the Dali Dynasty is slightly better than that of Zhao Liangcai. The DPRK and China can be compared with him, and there are only a few people such as Jiang Kui.
He looked at the city, and a general in silver armor came over and said, "Lord Steward, shall we let them close to the city?" β
Xing Yuande only said: "Wait until they really get closer." β
When more than 10,000 soldiers rushed to the gate of the city, he took the torch from the guards next to him and threw it towards the city.
Within the range of the torches, all the soldiers were unarmed, looking at the city with expectant faces.
"General Ge!"
The general next to Xing Yuande exclaimed in a low voice, "Lord Governor, they are really the soldiers of the Xiushan Army. This general, the last general has met a few times. β
The generals who surrendered to the army were all at the forefront, and it would not be surprising to see acquaintances.
And the General Ge in his mouth is the commander of the Xiushan Army. In the Dali army, it can also be regarded as a number one person.
There is no doubt about the identity of the pawn.
But Xing Yuande was silent.
He was worried.
Although it is unlikely that these soldiers will really surrender to the Song Dynasty in a short period of time, who can say for sure this kind of thing?
And if they hadn't surrendered, how could the Song army let them into the city so easily?
Isn't it for nothing that they have made the power of Weichu Mansion stronger?
The general on the side bowed his hand and asked, "Lord Governor, let's quickly put them into the city!" β
"What if they have already submitted to the Song Dynasty?" Xing Yuande's voice was a little low.
The burly general frowned and said, "It's unlikely, the Song army is only 20,000." Do they know the trade-offs like this? β
Xing Yuande was silent again.
Someone in the city shouted again: "Why don't you let me wait into the city?" β
Stroke, there are already people who have changed color slightly. Especially those generals, their eyes showed a complicated color.
Of course they knew why the robes of the city were so hesitant. At this time, the disappointment and anger in my heart were so turbulent that I couldn't suppress it.
They fought for their country and were finally forced to surrender. is still full of enthusiasm, but in the end, he is suspicious of his own robe.
But at this time, no one thought deeply about Liu Zhuwen's deep intentions.
When Liu Zhuwen asked them to let them go, he only said that they should go to the city to make trouble, and the inside should be together with the outside. At this time, these generals and soldiers were still laughing at Liu Zhuwen in their hearts, and they were really naΓ―ve.
In the past few days, those Great Song lobbyists have just told them how benevolent and righteous the Great Song Emperor was and how rich the Great Song Dynasty was, but they didn't see it with their own eyes, how could they really believe it?
The second is to truly believe that their home is in Dali and their roots are in Dali, how can they easily surrender?
After the Great Song Dynasty forbidden army captured Xiushan County and abandoned it, everyone could see that they were here to fight the autumn wind. Who would be willing to follow the Great Song Forbidden Army back to the Song Kingdom.
In the shouting just now, there seemed to be a little anger.
Xing Yuande finally relented and said to the generals on the side: "Open the city gate and let them enter the city!" β
However, he did not forget to instruct, "After they enter the city, they will be taken to the barracks to be strictly guarded, and no one will be allowed to leave the barracks for half a step!" β
"Yes!"
The general bowed his hand, and then shouted: "Open the gates!" β
In the squeak, the east gate of Weichu Mansion gradually opened.
At night, the drawbridge over the moat was also lowered. Dozens of light horsemen rushed out of the corridor with torches.
