697 Begging
We haven't reached the end of the mountain yet, why should we surrender?
There was a huge noise in the hall, and the generals were talking about it, some whispering, and some directly opposing it loudly.
"Lord Amin, we can't surrender!"
A young general with a mighty appearance, a thick beard, and thick eyebrows came out of the ranks, arched his hand towards Amin, and said with an angry expression: "Lord Amin, we haven't been defeated yet!" Now we still have tens of thousands of soldiers, and there are still fortified cities to hold, those Jurchen Tartars can't get in at all, and after a long time, they won't be able to hold back the troops themselves! Why surrender? We're not at the end of our rope yet! β
As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and he knelt on the ground and sobbed, "Lord Amin, we can't surrender!" β
His forehead slammed heavily on the ground, thumping, and his forehead was already blue, and in some places it was already broken, and blood was dripping down.
"Yes, Lord Amin, you can't surrender!"
"We can still fight!"
"These Mongolian Tatars have a feud with us, and they are treacherous, they attacked us and killed and injured so many brothers. Lord Amin, you can't surrender! β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The young general's words were immediately echoed by the vast majority of the people in the hall. Everyone was talking about it for different reasons, but the only thing they had in common was their indignant expressions, in a word-never surrender!
But not everyone is like this, some people still keep their heads down and don't say a word. Some of them have their eyes rolling and constantly sweeping over other people's faces. I don't know what's going on in my mind.
In the face of such indignation, Amin did not change his face. His expression was still cold, and his eyes were staring straight ahead, as if he was in a daze.
After a long while, when everyone's voices gradually lowered, he said lightly: "Are you done?" β
With these words, the hall suddenly fell silent, and became deathly silent, and no one spoke anymore.
Amin's power is something they would never dare to touch. It's also untouchable.
"I've said so much, my brain is very confused, little by little, I'm listening." Amin spoke slowly, in a calm tone, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with him.
The reasons for the objection were quickly clarified.
Although everyone is talking nonsense, there are actually only a few reasons.
First, we still have tens of thousands of soldiers, and we still have fortified cities to defend. The Mongols were not superior in numbers and could only besiege and not attack. After a long time, it naturally receded.
Second. We have a deep hatred for Mongolia and must not surrender! If it falls, how will you face those dead brothers under the Nine Springs in the future?
Third. The Mongols were treacherous and untrustworthy. Even if we fall, we can't say that the final outcome will be to be killed - this matter is not less than the children themselves. In the past, whenever the city was besieged, it was to send people to persuade him to surrender, and once the city defenders agreed to surrender, after entering the city, they immediately turned their faces and slaughtered the city.
With three reasons to support it, this argument seems much more sufficient.
After everyone finished talking, Amin waved his hand, and the hall immediately fell silent.
He glanced at everyone, his gaze was majestic, and he said slowly: "Since I took charge of the army and led the troops to attack Jiahewei, I have always been in power, and I have not discussed anything with you. But recently, I made an exception, and I'm going to tell you why I made this decision, but you also have to remember that this is the last time! After that, I will not tell you any decision, let alone give any explanation, just follow the order, otherwise, I will be killed! Do you get it? β
Everyone was shocked in their hearts, and said in unison: "Understood!" β
"Okay, then let's talk about it carefully."
Perhaps because he made an extremely important decision, Amin felt a lot more relaxed, as if he had unloaded the burden of 10,000 catties, and a smile appeared on his face.
He smiled faintly, cleared his throat and said, "Let's talk about city defense first, what you think seems to be too optimistic and too simple. β
With a sneer on his face, he raised his chin towards Liu Decai: "Say it yourself." β
"Yes." Liu Decai responded, faced everyone, and said with a little embarrassment: "Colleagues, my lords, don't hide it, the food in the city is less than three days to eat. β
"What?"
The crowd shouted in disbelief: "Lord Bingzhong, when I asked you that day, didn't you still say that there was enough food in the city, enough for three or four months?" There were also many food bags that people picked out, but they broke the stream everywhere. β
"Liu Decai, are you lying to us?"
In the face of everyone's aggressive questioning, if it was Liu Decai in the past, he must have weakened his momentum, his neck shrank, and he explained with a smile. But now, he is different from before, he smiled coldly, his face was as cold as iron, and his momentum was even more undeniable: "Who am I doing this for?" It's not for our Jurchens, for all of you here? If the soldiers had already learned the news, they couldn't say that they were in chaos now, how could they still hold on until now? If it weren't for me, I'm afraid that all of you here now would have become dead! β
Everyone was stunned and speechless.
They found out that this was really the case, if it weren't for Liu Decai's series of methods, the army might have collapsed long ago.
Liu Decai's tough performance also made Amin's eyelids pick slightly. Liu Decai has always been deferential in front of him, and it is the first time he has seen him speak so fiercely and so majestically and domineering in front of others.
It made him feel a little uncomfortable.
And when everyone was discussing, Amin was very keenly aware of one point - there were a lot more Han army officers in the hall, accounting for more than sixty percent of all officers! And this number was only one or two percent in the past. This shows that during his absence, a large number of Han troops ascended to power.
And it was precisely the strongest opposition to surrender that were the Han Chinese officers, the slave soldiers, who suffered heavy losses. They and the Mongols are a real blood feud, if it is replaced by an all-Jurchen person. It will be much easier to carry out.
Now the status of these Han officers in the army is unshakable.
"But in my eyes. What are you!? β
Amin sneered in his heart, but praised in his mouth: "Bingzhong did a good job!" β
"There is less than three days of food in the city, although there are many of us, but the soldiers don't even have anything to eat, they are starving to death, how can we resist the attack of the Mongols?" Amin said loudly: "Have you thought about it, we now only have these soldiers left in our hands!" These soldiers are all your lives. Without them, you are nothing! β
He sneered: "Are you willing to let them be buried here?" β
The crowd was silent.
This is the most practical question, because it is a matter of a person's net worth, power, wealth, and wealth.
Who in the world does not covet life and evil death? If it is not pushed to the extreme, there is no way out, who will die?
Amin's words touched the foundation of everyone's hearts that they would never surrender.
"Besides, even if we hold this place, what's the use?" Amin smiled a little sadly: "The Jurchen is finished." Jiahewei is also lost, and the 30,000 army is finished! Now there are only a thousand cavalry in the army! Even if the Mongols withdraw, Wu Yijun will come over! We can't beat it. If you can't escape, you're not waiting for death? β
The hall became more and more silent, only Amin's voice echoed: "Still do you think." In the hands of Wu Yijun, we will live better. β
"As for the hatred of the robes brothers. Everyone has this, but. Don't be blinded by these things, be a man, and learn to plan for your own business. Amin lightly revealed this layer and said, "As for your worries about your safety after surrendering, there is actually nothing to say about this......
"Do you know why you came to attack my Jurchen?"
Amin asked and replied to himself: "Because in Partridge Town, we are certainly defeated, and they are even more miserable, so there are only a few people who escape, and the rest are almost wiped out!" Fu Yuwei's family has a weak foundation, and their strength has suffered a serious loss, at this time, they want to swallow them and expand their strength! β
"Therefore, after we surrender, we will definitely not be abused and harmed, and maybe, we will still have some power. As for my ......" Amin shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Then I don't know if I live or die." β
When everyone heard this, they were all miserable in their hearts, and someone asked, "My lord, are you really so willing to be killed?" By putting your life in the hands of those Mongols? β
Amin asked lightly, "What else?" β
yes, what else?
Surrender may save a life, but if you resist, you will really die.
It's just that Liu Decai knows Amin very well, and he looks at it coldly, but he always feels that something is not quite right-Lord Amin is not like this! Is this still the Amin I know?
Amin waved his hand a little tiredly: "Okay, let's disperse!" Go down and prepare. β
Everyone dispersed, and only Liu Decai, Su Ji, and Zhao Wanxiong were left behind.
Amin suddenly stood up and looked at Liu Decai and the others, his eyes were blazing, where was the slightest look of loneliness and decadence just now?
Liu Decai's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but lower his head, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said in his heart, is this the Amin I know! How could he be so decadent?
Amin looked at the three of them and asked coldly, "You three, do you have different intentions?" Can you be loyal to me? β
"Huh?"
All three were stunned.
A gust of wind blew and rolled up the corners of the curtains that hung down to the ground on both sides of the pillar, and Liu Decai caught a glimpse of it at a glance, revealing a lot of feet wearing military boots behind him.
Axeman! Liu Decai immediately remembered these three words in his mind.
He reacted quickly, threw himself forward, knelt on the ground, and shouted: "The slave is loyal to his master, and he has no two hearts!" In a word, the master is a sword and a sea of fire, and there is no complaint! β
Su Ji and Zhao Slowxiong were stunned for a moment, secretly scolding this old thing in their hearts for being really shameless, scolding in their hearts, and quickly kneeling and kowtowing, loudly expressing their loyalty.
Amin rested his hands on the table and stared at them with no emotion in his eyes, like a goshawk on the savannah staring at a rabbit ready to hunt. His fingers kept bending and stretching, and he wanted to open his mouth several times to drag these three people down and chop them to death! But after all, after all. The clutching palm was still stretched out.
Knock and knock it, if it's really killed. I am afraid that it will cause a mutiny among the soldiers. Besides, these three people. At this time, he was quite obedient, and he did not show the slightest reversal, killing them, but rather losing his own cadres.
Liu Decai and the three of them lay on the ground and didn't dare to move, they were already so frightened that they were sweating profusely, just for fear that Amin would spit out the word 'kill' in his mouth.
For them, it was as long as years, and the sound of Amin's fingers tapping lightly on the table was more like Hades' talisman.
Finally. Amin's voice came: "Get up! β
The three of them breathed a long sigh of relief, only to feel that their legs were weak, and they were covered in sweat, and they almost didn't get up.
Amin said lightly: "You go back, restrain your subordinates, and tell them that you must not make a mistake for yourself, and violators will be severely punished!" Whether we can escape with our lives depends on whether we are obedient enough. The more reckless you are, the faster you will die! β
The three of them still didn't understand in their hearts, but they didn't dare to ask more, so they retreated.
Out of the hall. Liu Decai quietly glanced back and let out a long sigh.
Although he was spared death, his heart was full of gloom and boredom. Only one thought echoed in my mindβwhy did Master Amin do this to me?
When the three of them reached the door, they heard the neighing of a war horse. I looked at it by the hunting light of the torch at the door, but it was my child who strangled the horse. Before the horse could stand firm, he turned over and jumped down, striding towards the mansion with anger on his face.
When he passed by the three of them, he hit Su Ji hard, knocking him into a stumble and almost didn't fly out.
"What's going on here?"
The three of them were even more puzzled.
I Ba Boy strode into the hall, the knife and axe hand had been withdrawn, Amin was about to leave, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of me Ba Boy, sighed in his heart, and turned to look at him again.
"Amin, I heard that you are going to surrender, huh?" I yelled, his voice ringing through the air like thunder.
Anger was written all over his face, his eyes were rounded, and there was a terrifying light in them, and his thick beard seemed to stand on end.
The so-called whisker eruption, but that's it.
"That's right." Amin said slowly in a calm tone.
If I say that the child is like a volcano about to erupt, then he is a pool of water, calm and waveless.
"Why? Why? I looked at Amin with a face full of disbelief, and shouted frantically: "Then I can't calculate us so much, kill so many sons, I would rather die with him than surrender!" Why did you choose this way? β
"Even if you die, you can't be the same as you." Amin's cold voice contained no emotion: "To be a man, you must recognize your shortcomings, when to do something, and you must not make mistakes." β
I don't know what to say, he doesn't have enough tongue to give, and he is not Amin's opponent when it comes to arguments.
"Amin, you are such a proud person, why did you choose this way? It's not like you! I asked loudly, his arm waving so hard that he didn't know where to put it, and it seemed like a big rock was blocked in his chest, so that he just wanted to scream wildly.
The corners of Amin's eyes twitched, and his face was still cold: "People, they all change." β
I stared at Amin for a long time, and then suddenly turned around, and Amin said quickly, "Where are you going?" β
"Go to the general and help him rebuild the Haixi Jurchen!" I took a deep breath and replied coldly. He has calmed down, and he is completely disappointed in Amin, and he doesn't want to stay here anymore.
"Great General......" Amin chewed these three words, his eyes became gloomy, and he shouted: "Haixi Jurchen is finished!" The land was occupied by the Wu Yi army, the soldiers were killed, and Jiahewei was also breached! The Haixi Jurchen is over, you follow me, follow me, and we can do another career! β
I didn't listen to a word, shook my head slowly, and strode out.
"Do you have a coil?" Amin asked urgently, and I stood still again, not speaking. However, with his character, there is naturally no silver tael on his body.
Amin smiled bitterly, and his tone softened: "If you want to leave, I won't stop you, let's have a brother, it can be regarded as a good gathering and dispersal!" I've got some money here, so take it......"
As he spoke, he took two steps forward and put his right hand in his pocket. Seeing that I still didn't look back, his gaze instantly became ruthless, and he pulled out the knife on his waist and slashed at the back of my child's neck!
The knife wind broke through the air, and if I saw that if this knife was hit, my child would be cut off in two.
But I didn't expect that my baby seemed to have a wind in his head, turned around very quickly, and hit Amin's hand with a punch, Amin screamed in pain, the knife in his hand was knocked out, and then he felt that his wrist was grabbed by a big hand. It's like being caught in an iron hoop, and it hurts terribly. Then a slap the size of a child fan grabbed his neck at once.
Although Amin is also a martial artist, how can he compare with my baby? Grabbed by the neck, he was already unable to struggle, and the boy only needed to twist it slightly, and he would die without a place to bury.
The tide turned abruptly.
"I've been deceived by you so many times, are you still defenseless against you?" My Ba Boy's eyes were very strange, and he shook his head a little sarcastically: "Amin, you are not the only one who is the smartest, and you are not the only one who will bully others." β
"But, but!" His eyes were suddenly filled with deep disappointment and sorrow, staring at Amin, and yelling in disbelief: "Amin, you actually want to kill me? β
With a roar in his mouth, his eyes were already red.
His hand began to strain, and Amin's face turned red and swollen. The guards outside wanted to break in, but I grabbed Amin and turned around, facing the guards, shielding himself with Amin, and yelling, "Do you dare to come in? β
Amin took a few rough breaths and said with difficulty: "I ba, you won't kill me,"
He could still laugh out loud: "Kill me, Haixi Jurchen, it's really over!" β
"Amin, you're so arrogant!" I cried out.
Amin smiled and shook his head with difficulty: "This is not arrogance, I have this self-confidence, as long as I can't die, one day, I can rebuild the Haixi Jurchen." β
I looked at him steadily, suddenly let go of my hand, pushed him to the ground, screamed with indignation, and strode out of the house.
No one dared to stop him.
On the ninth day of the fifth month of the fifty-third year of Zhengde, the Ali Zhiwei Jurchen Army raised a white flag.
