The general guarding the city, after getting the hint from Huang Taiji, returned to the city wall again, and then shouted to Zhu Hao in the air:

"Ben agreed to your request!"

"You retreat to the outer gate now!"

"I'll order someone to escort your belongings out of the city now!"

Zhu Hao listened to the words of the general defending the city, and was about to order the troops to retreat, at this time, Xu Chu immediately stepped forward and persuaded him:

"Big boss, he agreed to this matter so happily, I'm afraid there is fraud in it!"

"Let's be careful!"

Zhu Hao waved his hand at Xu Chu when he heard this, and then smiled confidently and said:

"The second master, you are too worried!"

"We have these prisoners in our hands, and they are afraid of mutiny on the front line, so they are naturally a rat trap and dare not come nonsense!"

"Don't worry!"

Zhu Hao said and ordered 5,000 soldiers to escort thousands of prisoners, retreated to the outer city gate, and then looked at the inner city gate from afar.

When Zhu Hao and the others withdrew to the outer city gate, the inner city gate slowly opened, and at this moment, Zhu Hao actually wanted to order the cavalry in his heart to rush into the inner city, but he considered the disparity in strength between the enemy and me, so he still gave up this plan.

Zhu Hao stood still, looked at the direction of the inner city gate, and saw that after the inner city gate was opened, ten carriages were slowly escorted out, and then a moment later, the carriages remained outside the city, and the soldiers who escorted them retreated into the city, and then the inner city gate was closed.

After Zhu Hao looked at this scene, he personally led two thousand soldiers, escorted more than 1,000 prisoners, and slowly approached the inner city gate again, while the rest of the prisoners, and the soldiers stayed in place.

Zhu Hao's move was because several people were not suitable for dealing with this kind of thing, so he could only go in person, and at the same time, Zhu Hao had already understood that Houjin would not play any tricks again.

Rao is Zhu Hao decided that Houjin would not play tricks, so he was still very cautious, after he approached the gate of the inner city, he did not directly let people go to get the ten carts of property, but shouted to the general guarding the city in the air:

"In a while, the king will escort away these ten carts of belongings!"

"Then release these captives!"

"The rest of the captives, when King Ben arrives in a safe place, will naturally be released!"

The general guarding the city, since he got Huang Taiji's hint, he didn't care about the life or death of these captives, so he immediately agreed to Zhu Hao's request.

Although the other party agreed so happily, Zhu Hao felt a little surprised, but because he had these prisoners in his hands, he didn't think about it carefully, so he first asked a thousand soldiers to escort the prisoners forward, and at the same time, the remaining 1,000 people, followed closely behind, and brought back the ten carts of property.

After the ten carts of property were escorted back, Zhu Hao asked the 1,000 soldiers who were escorting the captives to escort the captives back, and slowly withdrew from the range of the archers in the city.

After retreating to a safe distance, Zhu Hao checked the belongings of the ten carts, and looked at the ten carts stacked with gold, silver and jewelry, Zhu Hao's face was full of smiles, and he said:

"Hetuara City, there is indeed sincerity!"

"Don't worry, this king is also sincere!"

Saying that, Zhu Hao waved his hand at the soldiers who escorted the nearly 1,000 prisoners and said:

"Let go!"

As Zhu Hao's words were finished, the captives who had been released by nearly a thousand people ran towards the inner city one after another, and frantically knocked on the gate of the inner city, but the general who defended the inner city, afraid that Zhu Hao would take the opportunity to rush into the inner city, did not open the city gate, but said:

"The goods have been given to you!"

"Aren't you going back?"

Zhu Hao hugged his fist at the general who guarded the city and said: "Thank you" and then ordered the two thousand soldiers: "Retreat!" ”

After Zhu Hao had withdrawn far away, the defending general ordered the city gate to be opened to allow the released captives to enter the city.

Zhu Hao escorted ten carts of property back to the outer gate of Hetuala, and after rounding with the remaining soldiers, he immediately ordered the team to quickly evacuate Hetuara City with the prisoners and these ten carts of property.

The reason why Zhu Hao evacuated Hetuara City in such a hurry was not that Zhu Hao kept his promise, but that Zhu Hao was afraid that the news of Hetuara City had reached Nurhachi's ears, and if the other party urgently returned to the division, then it was entirely possible for him to be caught between reinforcements and the defenders in the city, so Zhu Hao must quickly evacuate and hide.

The reason why Zhu Hao dared to take the sea route to attack Hetuara City this time was not because Zhu Hao was born with a sense of adventure, but because the land outside the Daming Pass at this moment, unlike later generations, still belongs to a barren land with vast land and sparse population, so as long as he is a little careful when marching, no one will find his whereabouts along the way, so this seems to be a risky move, but it is actually not as dangerous as imagined.

After Zhu Hao withdrew from Hetuara City, he ordered people to secretly transport the ten carts of property along the coastline to Zheng Zhilong's fleet, Zhu Hao did this because he still had the next step, he was not ready to evacuate the hinterland of Houjin just like this, he wanted to observe and make sure that Nurhachi had returned to the division, and the siege of Liaoyang had been resolved, so he could return, otherwise returning to the division at this time would probably make all his previous efforts come to naught, which Zhu Hao did not want to see, so he chose to continue to stay in Houjin.

After Zhu Hao and others found a relatively hidden place and began to station, Cheng Yanjin stepped forward to report:

"Your Highness, what about these thousands of captives?"

"How inconvenient it is for us to march with them!"

"Shall we let them go back, or shall we ......"

Cheng Yanjin said and made a motion to wipe his neck.

Seeing this, Zhu Hao sighed slightly and said:

"The people who built the captives are all uncivilized people!"

"Like jackals, tigers and leopards, ferocious and untamable, and unthankful!"

"My Da Ming has been very lenient with them over the years, but once they have the strength, how will they treat me Da Ming?"

When Zhu Hao said this, he paused, and then said:

"Three masters, these captives will be handed over to you to deal with!"

"However, you remembered the matter of letting the tiger return to the mountain, we have to guard against it!"

Zhu Hao's words to Cheng Biting Jin hinted very obviously, what he meant was to tell Cheng Biting Jin that these captives must all be killed and cannot be put back, the reason why Zhu Hao did not say it explicitly was just because the reputation of killing prisoners was not good.

In fact, Zhu Hao has no choice but to do this, because Zhu Hao knows that these nomadic people on the grassland are all born warriors, from their teenage years until they die, they can get on their horses as soldiers and dismount for the people, if they really put these thousands of people back, maybe the next time Nurhachi replenishes his troops, these people will become thousands of steppe cavalry when they take up arms.

Zhu Hao didn't want to see such a thing happen, so he chose this not very humane approach, but since Zhu Hao first came to this world, he has understood a truth, that is, as long as the goal can be accomplished, the means are not important, otherwise he would not hide himself so much at the beginning, until his father is about to die, he began to emerge.

Zhu Hao will have different performances in front of different times and environments, as well as different people, and it cannot be said that he has changed a lot, but can only say that Zhu Hao is a consequentialist person, and what he does, in the process of doing it, may have strange changes, but the purpose of what he does has never changed from beginning to end.

Maybe sometimes, this result is different from what Zhu Hao thought, but he will still make a big choice to maximize benefits according to the current form.

And these choices and practices are all working hard around the goal set by Zhu Hao at the beginning of his crossing to save the Ming Dynasty.

After Zhu Hao's words were finished, Cheng Biting Jin understood and hurriedly said:

"Big boss, please rest assured!"

"This matter is wrapped up in my old Cheng!"

Cheng Biting Jin said goodbye, then took two thousand soldiers, escorted those prisoners, and left the team for a short time, after Cheng Biting Jin left, Zhu Hao sent several scout teams in two directions, on the one hand, closely monitoring the movement of Hetuara City, and on the other hand, monitoring the movement of Liaoyang City.

After Zhu Hao sent out the scouts, he did not carry out any military operations in the past few days, and the supply of the entire team was all transported by Zheng Zhilong's fleet at sea.

Two days later, the scouts brought news from the direction of Liaoyang, saying that the battle in Liaoyang had become a stalemate, the city of Liaoyang was in danger, and Nurhachi did not show any signs of withdrawing his troops.

When Zhu Hao heard the news, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened, and said secretly:

"TNND, is this Nurhachi going to be shipwrecked? Did he ignore the safety of the nest? ”

"Or is there no one in Hetuara who has reported to Nurhachi?"

Zhu Hao thought about it for a long time, and he didn't know what went wrong, and finally he called Wei Xiaobao and asked:

"Xiaobao, the seeds of Hetuara City have been sown, right?"

"Did they have any news coming back recently?"

"Are these people, can they be used now?"

It turned out that when he attacked Hetuala City, Zhu Hao couldn't help but break through the outer city, and at the same time asked Wei Xiaobao to secretly install his own intelligence officers among the released prisoners, these people were all before coming to Liaodong, Zhu Hao asked Wei Xiaobao to find the Jurchens who had been sinicized in various places, these people were mixed in these captives, and Hetuala City was difficult to find for a while.

Therefore, what Zhu Hao meant by this time was to ask if these intelligence officers could already be used.

After listening to Zhu Hao's words, Wei Xiaobao hurriedly spoke:

"Big boss, these people have just entered Hetuara City, so I didn't let them pass on the news, because if the news is delivered now, they are likely to be exposed!"
