After Yu Dahong and Zhang Xiyuan decided to surrender, the news quickly reached Duan Qirui's ears, and Yu Dahong's condition was that he would wait for his family to get out of the south and go to the north before surrendering. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Duan Qirui naturally agreed, this plan has been decided, and the three levels of Yiyang have been broken.

After this news reached the ears of Liu Wangzhen and others, Liu Wangzhen and others also admired Duan Qirui's move, and it is fair to say that if this kind of thing is put in front of him, he may not be so decisive as Duan Qirui, and he believes in the suggestions put forward by the surrendered general.

The three passes of Yiyang only took one day to solve it with the help of Zhang Xiyuan, and it is expected that within three or four days, the three passes of Yiyang will belong to the northern army except for the isolated Pingjing Pass.

Wuchang is also expected.

After the three passes of Yiyang were pacified, the resistance of the Qing army in the two towns of Dongpingzhou became more and more intense, making it difficult for Chen Dongsheng to ride a tiger.

Obviously, the casualties of these Qing troops have been relatively large, but the strength of resistance is constantly increasing, and several times the northern army has rushed into the positions of the Qing army, but they have been beaten back by the Qing army at any cost.

Since then, Chen Dongsheng has also begun to gradually pay attention to the army in front of him, and an army that fights tenaciously on the battlefield can always be admired by the enemy.

But he had to take Dongpingzhou and hit the Qing army hard, so Chen Dongsheng began to continuously strengthen the offensive, and his four divisions took turns to attack, which made the Qing army tired to cope.

"Brothers, if you hold up the Commander, you will say that the Governor's reinforcements are about to arrive, and we must not let the Northern Army attack us, otherwise we will all be killed by the Northern Army.

The commander said that the Northern Army has never left prisoners, and it is a dead word for us to be in the hands of the Northern Army, so it is better to die on the battlefield, how to say that we can leave a generous pension for the family. ”

Under the propaganda of the commander, these Qing soldiers naturally thought that the Northern Army would not leave prisoners, but how could this kind of thing happen in the Northern Army.

The Qing soldiers thought that they would die anyway, and it was better to resist to the death, maybe in the end, they would be able to wait for reinforcements.

The Manchu troops reported this idea and persevered in the three-day onslaught, even though the casualty rate has now exceeded 30%, but under the propaganda of the officers, they have been desperately resisting the offensive of the northern army.

"Brother Chen, the resistance of this Manchu army is beyond our imagination, our army has attacked the position of the Qing army on the opposite side several times, but these Qing troops directly dared to come out for us at any cost."

What said this was that Yu Sun, who was later ordered to support, rushed into the position of the Qing army several times in the past two days, but in the end he was driven out.

This made Yu Zhu a little angry, and in addition to his anger, he also had a trace of doubt, when did the Manchu army be able to fight like this, the strength of his side was twice that of the Manchus, and the firepower density was dozens of times that of the Manchus.

But on his side, he was blocked by the Manchu Qing like this, and he was still a little curious in addition to his anger.

After listening to Yu Sun's words, Chen Dongsheng also nodded and spoke.

"Brother Yu's words do have some truth, when did such a fierce army appear in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, you must know that the armies of these two towns did not perform well when they fought against us, and it was as if they had changed an army all of a sudden."

Chen Dongsheng was also very curious about the changes in the Manchu army, what happened in the Manchu position opposite, which made these Qing troops fearless of death.

"Didn't these Manchu soldiers know that their reinforcements are about to arrive?"

Yu Suns put forward his own opinion, in the past two days, Chen Dongsheng and others are still more concerned about the reinforcements sent by the end side, and at this moment, this support army has a day to travel at most to reach the boundary of Dongping Prefecture.

The final order given by the War Department to Chen Dongsheng and others was that the living forces of the Qing army in these two towns must be completely annihilated before the Manchu reinforcements arrived, so as to deal a great blow to the Manchu army that invaded Shandong.

Perhaps it was the arrival of this support army that gave these Manchu soldiers hope to continue to support.

However, Chen Dongsheng immediately denied this view.

"Impossible, this reinforcement marched there, how could these besieged Manchu soldiers know, even if they knew, they couldn't be so fearless of death."

"Fearless of death?" Yu Zhu pondered Chen Dongsheng's words carefully.

"Brother Chen, isn't it that these Qing soldiers think that after the position is breached, there will be no good end, so they are so fearless to defend the position, just to leave some hope for themselves?"

Although Yu Sun's words were guesses, they just guessed the key to the answer, but the two didn't know the answer they had guessed.

As soon as these words came out, Chen Dongsheng's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this, thinking that the possibility of this point was still relatively large, so he said on the spot.

"Brother Yu, this is a possibility, why don't we publicize it to those Manchu soldiers?"

Chen Dongsheng's idea was approved by Yu Sun, and a spectacle appeared on the Manchu position that afternoon.

After the artillery of the Northern Army rang out, the Manchu soldiers were all ready to dodge, but what they didn't expect was that the shells did not explode after falling, but raised bursts of "snowflakes".

These curious Qing soldiers immediately looked over, the so-called "snowflakes" were just a piece of paper, the content of the note was very simple, that is, it promised that these Manchu Qing troops who had become lone troops could surrender, and the northern army promised to ensure the safety of the prisoners.

At the end of the note, the soldier was asked to think more about his family, and there was still a moment when he saw his family when he was alive, and only pain was brought to his family when he died.

These words immediately hit the hearts of these Manchu soldiers, yes, for these soldiers, family is always a very important part.

No matter what happens outside, everything will be calm when you get home.

All this propaganda hit the depths of the hearts of the Manchu soldiers, and it also said that they had become lonely, and instead of choosing to resist to the end, it was better to choose to surrender, so that they could return to their hometowns alive to see their parents, wives and children.

These notes were undoubtedly the last straw that pressed the camel's back, and at this time even the officers could not stop the soldiers' movements.

One by one, the soldiers began to leave the position one by one, and walked to the opposite position of the Northern Army and chose to surrender, the general trend has become useless, no matter how much they block, the Manchu reinforcements who are still rushing over at this moment do not know that Dongpingzhou has been successfully taken down by the Northern Army.
