In the evening of the same day, according to the agreement, Wan Yan Xi, the commander of the Jin army, led ten generals into the camp of the Song army to show the sincerity of the Jin army's surrender.

The rest of the Jin army will unload and surrender at Matou Village early the next morning, and there will be hot gruel and steamed buns waiting for them outside Matou Village.

As for how to deal with them after surrender, Ming Fu, on behalf of Yang Congyi, the generalissimo of the Northern Expedition, gave them a guarantee that as long as they obeyed the orders of the Song army and did not flee or rebel, they could save their lives, give them shelter from the wind and rain, and prevent them from starving.

Wanyan Xizheng and others, who came to the camp of the Song army that night, were warmly received by Ming Fu, and a sumptuous feast was used to wash the dust for them.

After the dinner, Ming Fu on behalf of the generalissimo of the Northern Expeditionary Army and the former commander of the Jin Army Dinner Xi Zheng chatted with a group of former Jin army generals for a long time, talking about their situation, talking about their possible treatment in the future, and told them that the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty had already driven the expedition in person, and it was imperative to take Yanjing.

Wan Yan Xizheng and the others are generals, and they don't dare to hope that they can continue to lead the army to fight, just to be able to spend their old age safely without worrying about food and clothing.

But at this time, the Great Song Dynasty was raising the strength of the whole country to go on a northern expedition, and only wanted to capture Yanjing, Wanyan Xizheng and others as the generals of the Jin army who surrendered, and they could be used, and Ming Fu naturally tried to mobilize them to join the Song army, strengthen the strength of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and capture Yanjing in one fell swoop.

Unite all the forces that can be united and use them for my use, this is the truth that Yang Congyi told him back then, and Yang Congyi specially told him before that he should treat the generals well and give them due courtesy, and he should have the intention of winning them.

Ming Fu's small talk did not touch Wan Yan Xizheng much, but it was very attractive to a group of young generals, who wanted fame and fortune in the army, as long as they had fame and fortune, everything else was not important.

Although the young generals did not say it explicitly, Mingfu knew that they were tempted.

That night, Ming Fu personally arranged a sturdy and warm barracks for Wan Yan Xizheng and others.

Early the next morning, without waiting for dawn, rows of pots and stoves were set up in the open field outside Matou Village, boiling porridge and steamed steamed buns.

As soon as the sky was bright, a small group of Jin soldiers approached Matou Village, but under the warning of the Song army with sharp arrows, they did not dare to get any closer.

The defenders of Matou Village had received the news that they would preside over the surrender here, because they saw a small group of Jin soldiers approaching, and did not immediately kill the opponent with bows and crossbows, but only temporarily drove away.

When the sky was bright, Ming Fu took a group of men and horses to come to Matou Village with Yan Xizheng and other generals.

The defender of Matou Village reported to Ming Fu, and after everything was ready, Ming Fu immediately asked Wan Yan Xizheng to send people back to rectify the army, supervise the unloading of the Jin soldiers, and prepare to surrender to the Song army.

Wan Yan Xizheng did not say much, but the soldiers suffered a lot, and immediately sent two cronies and generals to return to the army through the bridge guarded by the Song army.

An hour later, according to yesterday's agreement, the first surrendered team of 3,000 people, after unloading their armor, came to the vicinity of Matou Village with their bare hands, and waited for the Song army defenders to arrive to inspect and confirm that the Jin soldiers did not bring blades, and then let them go.

The first team to surrender was cold and hungry, shivering, and without energy, and when they approached the river bank of Matou Village, the smell of rice porridge and steamed buns on the opposite bank penetrated into their nostrils, and they immediately ran towards the bridge like crazy, and the formation was completely lost in an instant.

Song Jun's several scolds and shouts were useless, until they raised their swords, guns, bows and crossbows in their hands, and Jin Bing realized their situation at this time and stopped.

Then, under the instructions of the Song army, the Jin soldiers passed through the narrow bridge in turn, arrived on the other side of the canal, and came to the place where Matou Village was surrendered.

At the designated surrender site, the Jin soldiers met their generals standing among the Song generals, but they only glanced at them, and their attention was attracted by the smell of rice porridge and steamed buns fluttering in the sky.

Ming Fu and the others didn't say much, but only issued an order to the Jin soldiers who came to surrender: all actions are under command, you can manage food and save your life, and if there is a change of heart, you will be executed on the spot!

After this simple order was given, the 3,000 golden soldiers were taken to another venue, where fragrant rice porridge and steamed buns were prepared for them to ward off the cold.

A quarter of an hour later, the 3,000 Jin soldiers left Matou Village under the escort of 500 Song infantry and 100 cavalry, and rushed all the way to Gu'an County.

Not long after the 3,000 surrendered Jin soldiers left, the second Jin army arrived at Matou Village.

The same 3,000 men, like the first Jin soldiers to arrive, under the supervision of the Song army, crossed the narrow bridge with their bare hands, came to the place of surrender, and after a brief lecture, they were taken to the place of dining, and a quarter of an hour later, under the escort of 600 Song army infantry cavalry, rushed to the county seat of Gu'an.

The surrendered Jin soldiers came to Matou Village, and left after a quarter of an hour, Wan Yan Xi was looking at them from a distance, his eyes were complicated, they didn't know whether he saved them or harmed them today, and what they would think of him in the future Wan Yan Xi Zheng's decision today.

The other generals and generals of the Yuan Jin Army are the same, they just look at it from afar, and they are silent, but they are different from Wan Yan Xizheng, there is still hope in their eyes, and there is not so much sadness.

The whole surrender process was very smooth, a group of Jin soldiers honestly crossed the bridge, entered the surrender site, and then went to drink two bowls of hot porridge, eat a steamed bun, and then were taken away from Matou Village, south to Gu'an City.

Before noon, eight Jin soldiers came to surrender, and nearly 24,000 people were sent away after a short stay in Matou Village.

After the surrender ceremony, Matou Village was re-blocked, because there were still more than 10,000 gold troops in the encirclement.

Ming Fu returned to the Song army camp with Wanyan Xizheng and others, and at the same time, reported the surrender process and results to Yang Congyi, and asked the Jin army how to deal with it.

Before the new order arrived, Ming Fu gave Wan Yan Xizheng and the others a high courtesy, eating and drinking better than himself, but they were not allowed to leave the barracks and move around at will.

Yang Congyi was also busy at this time, busy sending people to the vicinity of the transportation camp on the other side of the canal to listen to the news, inspect the movements of the Jin army, and at the same time prepare to launch a persuasion operation against them.

After this battle, the Northern Expedition to capture Yanjing is already a sure thing, as for how to seize Datong, Dading, Linhuang, Liaoyang and other places in the future, and completely sweep away the threat of the Jin State to the Great Song Dynasty, Yang Congyi also has to consider.

The northern grasslands were not a place where the Song army could gallop, and if more Jin soldiers surrendered and joined them, they would select some available people to form an army, which would be of great use in the future in the grassland.

Although the Jin army that was encircled was not elite, they were definitely stronger than the Song army on horseback, and Yang Congyi valued their ability, and if they did not resist, he was willing to accept their surrender.

Today, whether it is the Jin Kingdom, the Western Xia Dynasty or the Great Song Dynasty, there is no concept of nationality, as long as the emperor and the officials can manage their food and clothing, the vast majority of ordinary people will not care who is the emperor and who is the official, and the same is true for ordinary soldiers.

In the Tang Dynasty, the northern Uighurs could be attached to the Tang Dynasty, and at this time, as long as the Great Song Dynasty recovered Yanyun and Liaodong, the Jurchen Jin people could also be attached to the Great Song Dynasty, not to mention that there were not many real Jurchens in the Yanjing area, and the vast majority were still Han, Liao, and Bohai.

The news that Wanyan Xizheng led the army to surrender to the Song army soon spread back to the transportation camp, and the Jin army, which failed to break through from the canal and attacked Matou Village and was deflated, was suddenly shocked, and there were many discussions.

When further news came, hearing that the people who surrendered to the Song army not only had fragrant hot porridge or white-flour steamed buns, the Jin soldiers instantly lost their fighting spirit, and their mouths were drooling when they listened to their gurgling stomachs.

Unable to break through, surrender became the only way out.

Wan Yan Xizheng, the commander of the Jin army, has already led more than 20,000 people to surrender, why do they still want to resist?

The Jin soldiers in the transportation camp were ready to move, and they also wanted to follow in the footsteps of the commander to surrender to the Song army in Matou Village, eat hot porridge and white flour steamed buns, and save their lives, because there was no point in hopeless resistance.

However, the signs of surrender of the ordinary gold soldiers were soon discovered by the commander-in-chief.

These commanders had to divide their troops with Wanyan Xizheng before, that is, they wanted to lead the army back to Yanjing, because their backers were in Yanjing, and their relatives and relationships were also in Yanjing, but Wanyan Xizheng was different, Yanjing did not have important relationships and people to him.

They can't surrender, even if they face a desperate situation, otherwise their relationship in Yanjing City will be severed, and their relatives in the city will immediately suffer retaliation, which is absolutely unacceptable to them, even if it is death, surrender is not an option for them.

Therefore, the soldiers and low-ranking officers who discussed surrender in vain were quickly arrested and executed in public, and warned the whole army that those who privately discussed surrender would be executed!

After that, the general transport camp fell into an endless dreary, and the soldiers gathered around the fire, occasionally making eye contact, and if it was not necessary, never speaking again.

Listening to the rumbling stomach, they can only use the pot to melt some snow water, heat it to drink, hot water in the stomach, still difficult to resist hunger.

Eating and filling their stomachs has almost become the only thought of these Jin soldiers in the transportation camp, and the commander led the army to surrender to let them know that as long as they dare to go south to Matou Village, they can get food.

But if only three or five people go, not only will they not get anything to eat, but they will probably lose their lives.

It is easy to do things with many people, and it is the same if you want to surrender the Song army, without a certain scale and number, who will care?

That night, in the middle of the night, in the dead of night, a riot suddenly broke out in the transportation camp, and several commanders were killed in the riot.

Early the next morning, the only two commanders summoned all the soldiers and officers at all levels, and announced an order in public: immediately remove the armor, lay down the arms, and surrender to the Song army!

There was no objection, and the order to surrender was quickly carried out.

Just as they were about to leave the transportation camp and go south to Matou Village, there was a faint sound of persuasion outside the camp.

On the morning of the same day, more than 8,000 Jin soldiers crossed the ice of the canal in turn and surrendered to the Song army.
