Chapter 440: Book of Surrender

Chapter 440 Surrender Book

In the face of the predicament, it was difficult to depict and jumped straight to his feet, but there was no way to do it, and he was at a loss.

Because, the west and south sides of the castle are also under the onslaught of the enemy army at this moment, and they are in a hurry, and they are full of dangers......

Because the terrain in these two directions was too narrow, Zheng Chenggong only sent a battalion of soldiers to feint separately, intending to contain them.

However, the commanders of these two battalions are Chen Cheng and Guo Ting, but these two people are not ordinary people, they have long held back their strength and want to compete with Shi Lang.

Everyone knows that if you want to be promoted quickly, military merit is the most important thing to do things under the surname of the country!

Therefore, after receiving the order, although they only received more than 1,500 people from their headquarters, these two guys coincidentally decided to oppose the guest and sing the fake show.

In their opinion, although the narrow terrain is not conducive to the deployment of troops, the benefits are more obvious - the assault position is right under the nose of the red hair, and the heavy artillery at the head of the city is almost an ornament.

Therefore, their tactics were similar - the whole battalion disrupted the arms, divided into more than a dozen teams to attack in turns, and attacked in waves.

As soon as each team climbed the mound, the archers braved the bullets to shoot at the red-haired hairs, while the rattan players and spearmen carried ladders and desperately climbed the wall in an effort to fight the enemy in close combat.

In this way, their command issued waves of fierce charges, going forward one after another, indomitable, so that the red hairs who were approaching the head of the city couldn't breathe, and they couldn't take care of themselves for a while, where could they still draw troops to support the main gate.

……

Basten, the messenger who was detained and forced to watch the battle, was already sweating profusely at this time, but his inner feeling was just the opposite, wow cool wow cool.

The front was filled with gunsmoke and the sound of cannons, and I saw that the whole castle was almost submerged in a cloud of fire and smoke, and the dense crowd was rushing forward on the earthen hill......

And at the forefront, at this time, there were ladders and human heads everywhere, hundreds of people in black even set up human ladders, just like ants climbing trees, climbing bravely, and people kept falling down, but more people relayed up, and in a blink of an eye, many people had already attacked the second floor.

Behind them, more heads were crowded with the crumbling walls, and these people were raining down the musketeers at the head of the city......

Basten shuddered, what does it mean to be overwhelmed? That's it!

At this moment, Captain Aldorp beside him was even more frightened, his face was like gold paper, his legs and stomach trembled, no wonder he was defeated so badly yesterday, these Chinese guys, especially the real outlaws!

……

After more than an hour, the remnants of the army retreated to the top floor, and the rest were all lost.

Looking around at the dozens of gray-faced soldiers around him, his face was as earth-colored as earth, and he wanted to cry without tears.

There are only four hundred people who have only one meal, and these few are left?

The ammunition is almost exhausted, and it is pointless to resist any longer.

"Raise the white flag, lower it......"

Looking at the helpless eyes of the soldiers, he waved his hand weakly.

Finally, at the highest point of the Red Embedded City, a white flag was raised......

……

Looking at the crowd of people who were waving flags and cheering, Zheng Chenggong smiled faintly and turned his head to look at Basten and the others, who were already colorless.

After pondering for a moment, Zheng Chenggong beckoned him to come over, and said coldly: "You have seen the battle of Chichicheng with your own eyes, and you can go back to restore your life." ”

"Yes, the surname of the country is ......"

As if it were an amnesty, Basten hurriedly bent down in response.

"Go back and tell your Commander, tomorrow I will besiege the city,"

Zheng Chenggong had a straight face, "Give him three days, where to go, let him watch it." ”

"Yes,"

Basten wiped his sweat and said in a trembling voice, "I must tell you about my humble position, I must tell ......"

"So be it,"

Zheng Chenggong glanced at him, pondered for a moment, and said lightly, "Come and don't be rude, I will also repair a letter and send someone to escort you back to the city." ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Remember, I will not kill you and others, if my messenger does not return safely, after the city is broken, I will kill you and others, and not a single one will be left!"

"Be kind, be ......"

Basten was on the verge of crying.

……

When the messenger returned, Governor Fairburg was waiting for news.

After listening to Basten and Aldorp's report, Feuerburg looked miserable and asked one after another: "Really?" Is it hard to describe? ”

"Yes......"

"Four hundred warriors, in less than half a day, they fell?"

"Yes, yes, sir."

The two replied in a trembling voice.

"What a piece of rubbish!"

Felburg sat down in a slump and couldn't complain.

"My lord, I have done my best to fight until the last moment,"

Basten stepped forward and whispered: "Zheng Jun is indeed invincible, my lord......"

"Don't say it,"

Felburg waved his hand with a bitter face, and said impatiently, "Bring the messenger in." ”

"Yes."

Basten replied in a proper manner, knowing that this master of his had always been stubborn, and that it was better to keep his mouth shut at this moment.

After a while, Basten brought in Zheng Chenggong's messenger, Li Zhong, the general.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the contemptible Li Zhong, is sending a letter to my family and country."

Li Zhong's attitude is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Bring it in."

Feuerburg grunted dryly.

Immediately, Basten took the letter for him, and Felburg's hands trembled slightly, and he couldn't wait to open it and read it.

After reading the letter, Felburg was not angry or annoyed, but his face was cloudy and cloudy, which was very strange.

Zheng Chenggong's letter is actually a letter of surrender, but the tone is quite polite.

"The Ming Dynasty summoned the general, and the guilty minister Zheng Chenggong sent a letter to the deacon of the Netherlands:

The people of the world are not happy to die unexpectedly, and the rest of the deacons are covered with the lives of the people of your country, and they cannot bear to fall into the devastation, so I will order the messenger to pay respects, and I hope that the deacon will think about it.

The deacon led hundreds of people to defend the lonely city, how could it be enough to resist our army? And Yu You blames the deacon's unwisdom.

If the deacon knows that he is invincible and surrenders the city, he should treat him with sincerity.

When our army entered the city, Yu Yan ordered the soldiers, and the autumn did not commit any crimes, and when he heard that the people of your country were gone, if there were those who were willing to stay, Yu would also defend them, and he would be with the Chinese.

If I do not come to my senses, I will break the city in three days, and I will not be able to give more preferential treatment.

The husband was defeated and reconciled, there was a clear precept in ancient times, and the matter was continuous, and the wise man ridiculed it.

The people of your country have crossed the ocean, and the people of your country have sought a way of self-defense as a last resort. However, the land of China has also been occupied by your country for a long time, and now that I have come to ask for it, the land should belong to me, and Zhenyao will not be in a hurry to hear about it.

If the deacon does not listen, he can unveil the red flag and ask for battle, and Yu will immediately watch, without wandering and making a decision.

The power of life and death, in the palm of the rest, is done at the opportunity, not all day long, only the deacon wants to do it. ”

……

"Your lord,"

After a long time, Feuerburg slowly spoke, thoughtfully, "As the letter says, can you really guarantee the safety of my people and property?" ”

Listening to the tone, Felburg was worried and undecided.

Because, whether to fight or surrender is really a big problem for Felburg!
