Chapter 416: Surrender of the city

But at the moment, there was no movement outside the city, except for the occasional shouting of killing from the cathar camp. The rows of houses have also been abandoned by the people.

It is also they who are afraid of being killed by the pond fish and once again facing the tragedy of Jicini decades ago. Therefore, before the arrival of the Guardian Army, they took the old and the young to hide in the nearby mountains. The hustle and bustle of the street market in the past is also dead.

Of course, the cathars will not explain to them that they themselves will not raise their butcher knives against them. After all, the sword has no eyes! When it came time to attack the city, it was easy for these people to be killed by mistake. Moreover, emptying the people outside the city can also prevent some spies from infiltrating the camp of the cathars.

Faraday stood on the wall and watched, and couldn't help but regret it!

Because when the cathars came to Gizeni, many people tried to rush into the city to avoid trouble. However, considering that the city is not very spacious, and the arrival of the people will increase the pressure to defend the city. So Faraday ordered the defenders not to let the people into the city.

For this reason, he also killed many people who stopped in front of the city gate, and finally ended everyone's hope of entering the city.

But now, with the siege waged by the apologetics. The defenders of the city suffered heavy casualties. But if you want to send more troops, it is difficult to find strong men. Even in the official residences of those dignitaries, there are still many private guards.

But these people, he can't move.

So it's predictable! As long as the cathars continue to attack the city, the defenders will become fewer and fewer. In the end, there is only the end of the city being destroyed and the country destroyed.

Thinking of this, he was a little dazed in his heart! For he was fearing that one day the Sultanate of Ghul, whom he had served, would be replaced by the state of Khorasan.

In fact, if you really want to dig deeper, this day will not be too far away.

Because just yesterday, he received the news that the entire army of Kobuli had been wiped out. Even the Sultan himself was captured by the cathars.

At the beginning, he persuaded the Sultan not to lead his troops to recruit himself. It's a pity that none of the sultans and generals who are looking forward to the whole territory of Gui Er can listen to it. So much so that now, there is no place for regret.

In order to avoid affecting the morale of the army, he did not dare to make the news public.

But paper can't contain fire after all. He also didn't know if the people below would have the confidence to stick to Jizeni when they learned that the Sultan had been captured.

He knew he would see it, but he hoped that it would never happen.

While he was thinking about this, one of his guards rushed to the wall and reported: "Emir, Ramasso Imam has something important to discuss!" ”。

As the imam of the city's Grand Mosque, Rawasso's status is transcendent. When the Sultan was still in Gitzni, he often turned to him for scriptural teachings. And give him a generous gift, respect him as a teacher.

So when Lafdedi heard that Lavaso was coming, he told the defenders on the wall to keep an eye on the cathars' every move, and quickly returned to his mansion in the city.

"The Great Imam!" Faraday saw that Lavaso was leading a man waiting in the hall, and immediately made a return salute and sat back on the head.

"This is the messenger of Khorasan - Har Rai. He had something important to discuss with the emir, so he made it easy for me. Rama Soimam wears a white hat and a white robe. The eyebrows are very long, hanging down to the cheeks.

Because of his age, his eyebrows and hair are all white. It looks a little dusty. plus a pair of eyes, it also has a unique spirit. It makes many people believe that he can see through all the vanity in the world.

Faraday is also convinced of this! But that didn't mean he could turn a blind eye to Lavaso's actions. So as soon as he heard that Har Rai was the messenger of Khorasan, he stood up and said, "Great Imam! This man is a spy of the enemy, how can you bring him here! ”。

When he said this, his expression was a little distressed.

Ravasso sighed, and said compassionately: "The Sultan has been captured, and it will be useless for Jizeni to defend it." Rather than let the people of the city shed all their blood, it is better to ---", although the latter words are not said, but the meaning is already clear.

This is also the reason why he did not hide the identity of Hal Rai.

"The Sultan is on his way back to the city, and the Great Imam must not listen to the words of the traitors!" Faraday flatly denied it. In accordance with Lavaso's prestige, as long as he surrenders to the cathars. Then the soldiers defending the city don't have much heart to hold on.

But his support for the true God made him disrespectful to Lavaso. Therefore, we can only try to persuade them to change their minds.

"Don't fool yourself! Your Sultan has become a prisoner, so why is he still guarding Gitzni? Hal Rai took the initiative to expose Faraday's lies and pulled out a bloodstained finger.

Its shape is very short, only an inch long. And it's very thin, not like an ordinary person's thumb.

But both Lavaso and Faraday recognized at a glance that this was the Sultan's finger.

For they knew that the Sultan had six fingers.

This is something that the Sultan would not have known about, so most people would not know about it. But they were close to the Sultan and had known about such secrets for a long time.

"You killed the Sultan?" Faraday said with grief and indignation on his face.

"Hehehe... Just took one of his fingers. But if you don't surrender, the next time you send it will be his head. Har Rai said this with a small smile on his face.

But in Faraday's heart, it was as cold as ice in winter.

"The true God does not want to see believers kill each other again!" , Lavaso sighed. The cathars also believe in Allah, so this is true.

When Faraday heard this, he also lost the last shred of confidence. He agreed to surrender the city and surrender to the cathars. But he demanded that the cathars not kill the Sultan and that the safety of the entire army and civilians be guaranteed. Ravasseau made the same request, telling the cathars not to kill innocents indiscriminately.

Originally, the cathars did not have the habit of slaughtering cities, so this request was easily met. But the life of the Sultan depends on the Sultan himself.

Because if the Sultan is restless and keeps himself, he may go to Allah at any time.

When the news of Jicini's conquest reached Maru, Ban Cheng County, Ban Cheng County. The magistrates and Qadi, as well as the esteemed imams, were standing in front of the city gates, looking forward to something.

Due to its location in the lower reaches of the Balkh River, the terrain here is relatively low. Even if precipitation is scarce, the presence of the Balkh River makes the area densely covered with water. So there are large wheat fields here, which can feed a lot of people.

It is also this foundation that makes Bancheng the seat of the county.
