In Datong Mansion, several people used wine and rice, and Yeluren first said to Yeluzong: "King, how do you think about it?" Of the three days given by the Song Army, today is the last day. But if they do not agree, tomorrow they will attack the city. ”

Jerod said, "If I don't sacrifice the city, what can they do?" Won't a siege kill people? ”

Yeluren sighed first: "Of course, the siege will kill people, not only the Song people, but also the Khitan people. And Song Jun said that after the city was broken, the first thing he would do was to behead the king at the head of the city. ”

Jerod was willing to be silent. After a while, he said, "Am I afraid that I won't die!" ”

Yeluren looked at Yelu Xiantong first, but just shook his head, really didn't know what to say. In fact, Jerod knew that the dedication of the city was the only way to live. But he was in the same house, didn't give him some benefits, and gave it away in vain, he always felt unwilling in his heart.

Seeing this, Xiao Molu on the side said cautiously: "King, in the past, when the Song army attacked the city, it was all artillery that suppressed the head of the city, emptied a section of the city wall, and then the ants attached it. The party's cities were all captured in this way. People who have only seen the party's war say that the Song army's artillery is so powerful that the party can't resist it at all. And then the big city, it will be taken in two or three days. ”

Yeluzong said: "It's so easy to attack, the Song army has besieged Datong Mansion for so many days, and it hasn't been captured." ”

Xiao Molu could only sigh: "These days, the Song army has only bombarded the city wall with artillery, and has never attacked the city with ants. Obviously, they won in Youzhou, thinking that we were not capable of defending the city and did not want to kill or injure people. If you are in a hurry, it will not be like this. Now the Song army only captured Youzhou, and then went down to Datong Mansion, and there are still many cities in this dynasty. Obviously, Song Jun wanted to take Datong Mansion as an example, what would happen if the city was sacrificed, and what would happen if it was not. ”

Hearing this, Yelu Zong was shocked. Only then did I understand that Song Jun resolutely did not give himself benefits, not just a matter of being stingy. gave himself benefits, should the rest of the generals who sacrificed the city give benefits? As soon as this example was opened, how could Song Jun have so much money! Preserving his life is the biggest benefit that Song Jun can give, and it is impossible to want anything else.

After pondering for a long time, Yelu Zongyuan sighed: "What a pity for my life! It's just that there are more than 10,000 soldiers in the city, and they can't be buried together. Today, there is no other way. Three people came from afar to persuade me, and I know you are kind. It's just that he was a Khitan minister, and he couldn't defend the territory, and he finally felt ashamed of his ancestors and ancestors. For the sake of the soldiers who defend the city and the people in the city, I promise to sacrifice the city. However, the Song general promised me that after the city was broken, he would treat the people well and not kill the soldiers who defended the city. ”

Yelu Xiantong let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the king, we will definitely make it clear to Song Jun." When the Song army was in Youzhou, he was very good to the people, how could he hurt people's lives. How to dedicate the city tomorrow, the king told us, and we will go out of the city to tell the Song army in a while. ”

Yelu Zong wished: "What other way is there to dedicate the city?" I will open the city gate early tomorrow morning, and the Song army will enter the city. They have an army of 100,000 people, and after entering the city, are they still afraid of my more than 10,000 people! Alas, I didn't expect it to be like this in the end! ”

"Good, good, so much the best!" Yelu Xiantong looked at Yelu Renxian with a smile on his face. "It's getting dark, so we're going out of town. The king is in the middle of the city to prepare, so that the gates of the city will not be opened, and there will be chaos. ”

Yelu Zongyuan nodded: "Then so be it." I will send you down to the city. ”

Looking at the several wooden baskets hanging down on the head of the city, Wang Kai said to He Bin and Hao Qian: "Tell me, is Yeluzong willing to sacrifice the city?" ”

He Bin said: "Give the best, avoid a fight." If you don't sacrifice, you will go to the city tomorrow and cut off his head! Taiwei said very clearly, the Khitan generals fought at the beginning, and they were defeated and captured, so they could not be killed. If you want benefits like this, it's better to kill it early. ”

Hao Zhi said: "I have not been here for a long time, and I can't tell what Yelu Sect wants. However, the three of Yelu Xiantong are back now, and eight or nine times out of ten, Yelu Sect is willing to sacrifice the city. If not, he will detain the man. ”

Wang Kai nodded: "Yes, I also estimate it." Now send someone back, obviously I don't want to defend it. ”

Not long after, the soldiers brought the three Yelu fairy children to arrive and salute Wang Kai and others.

Wang Kai returned the salute and asked, "How?" You have been in the city for three days, can you think clearly about the wish of the Yelu sect? ”

Yelu Xiantong said: "Congratulations to Taiwei, Yelu Sect is willing to think about it, although there are still many dissatisfactions, he is still willing to sacrifice the city." According to him, it is to save you from many casualties in the siege of the city. As long as your army agrees, after taking the city, it will not kill the people in the city, and the Yelu sect will open the city gate early tomorrow morning and welcome your army into the city. ”

Wang Kai smiled and said, "Do you want you to go into the city again and tell him?" ”

Yelu Xiantong shook his head: "That's not true." Yeluzong wants to believe a few captains, and he will definitely not do anything to regret it. ”

He Bin smiled: "That's it, how can we regret it?" He said these things, just to look good. However, as long as we want the city, what Yelu Sect wants, it will be handed over to the imperial court to dispose of. ”

After speaking, he said to Wang Kai: "Today is such a happy event, let's go, let's go back to the handsome tent to drink!" Early tomorrow morning, the army will enter the city! ”

In Datong Mansion, Yelu Zong was willing to command his subordinates and hurriedly packed up his personal belongings. It is nothing more than the rich man of gold and silver who has been looted in Datong Mansion in the past year, all of them are put into willow boxes and carefully placed in their own rooms.

Xiao Molu said: "King, the city will be dedicated tomorrow, and it needs to be carefully arranged. If there is an accident, it is a big deal. Will anyone still grab these things of your own? Wait until the Song army enters the city, and then slowly clean up. ”

Yelu Zong stomped his foot when he heard this: "How stupid you are! The three of Yelu Xiantong made it clear that after the city was sacrificed, only my life would be spared. After the Song army entered the city, it was inevitable to loot civilian property, and I was accidentally implicated. I packed it up early, and after the Song army entered the city tomorrow, I made it clear to their commander that this is my thing, and the Song army is not allowed to loot. If not, how will I survive after I am caught in Kaifeng Mansion? ”

When Xiao Molu heard this, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say for a while. After a long while, he said: "It's just that the city gate will be opened tomorrow, how will the soldiers be arranged?" If you don't arrange it in advance, I'm afraid that there will be chaos. ”

Yelu Zong wished: "What kind of arrangement do you want for this?" Go and tell them that Youzhou was defeated, and all the soldiers and horses of this dynasty were lost there. Now there are no reinforcements outside Datong Mansion, and there is no accumulation inside, so it can only be surrendered. Early tomorrow morning, each will organize his team and put down his swords and guns. ”

Xiao Molu was stunned for a moment and said, "What if there are generals who are unwilling to surrender?" ”

Yelu Zong said impatiently: "You go and talk to a few generals, saying that the general situation is like this, and it is useless to resist." After surrendering, the Song army will not kill and surrender, and will arrange a place for them to eat, so there is no need to panic. If anyone insists on not surrendering, you can just arrest them. ”

"What about after you catch it?"

Yelu Zongyuan waved his hand: "Grab it and lock it up, what else?" Tomorrow, when the Song army enters the city, what else can he do? At this time, it is best for all armies not to make trouble, and it is best to be safe. If there are those who don't listen to military orders and make trouble, it's good to arrest them in advance. ”

Xiao Molu nodded. Seeing that all the thoughts of Yelu Zong's wish were to pack up his belongings, he had no choice but to leave.

Looking at Xiao Molu's departing figure, Yelu Zongyuan shook his head: "It's really wordy, I have already decided to sacrifice the city, where are there so many things to take care of?" The most important thing now is to pack up your belongings, otherwise what will you eat in Kaifeng Mansion in the future! ”

did not ask for benefits from Song Jun, and Yelu Zong was naturally dissatisfied. Now that my possessions are precious, of course I need to pay more attention. As for arranging the dedication of the city, he has already decided to surrender, and the soldiers will put down their swords and guns, so what is there to arrange?

This Xiao Molu, looking at him, obviously doesn't want to fight, but now there are so many things. Don't worry about this kind of thing of surrender, the more detailed the arrangement, the easier it is to have an accident, and I really don't know the general situation.
