As mentioned last time, the First Division took some measures to prevent the Wei army from surrendering by fraud, and if it was sincere in surrendering, they would naturally welcome it, and if it was coming to surrender or making trouble after surrendering, they did not mind killing it by thunderous means.

Since the deputy who led the team received a clear surrender order from his own general and was promoted by the firing line, he was naturally very cooperative with the Shu army's work of receiving prisoners, and there was no objection to the complicated surrender procedures proposed by the Shu army.

To put it bluntly, the precautionary measures of the Shu army are a set of procedures for accepting surrender, these procedural things are a bit annoying, and they often put the surrendering party in a disadvantageous position, and put the surrendered party in an advantageous position, if it is a fake surrender or someone with different intentions, you may feel frightened in the process, but for those who really come to surrender, it doesn't matter.

The Wei negotiators were told in advance by the deputy to agree to all the demands of the Shu army, so the two sides quickly reached an agreement, and the surrender ceremony was officially launched.

The first step of the surrender ceremony is for the surrendering party, the supreme general of the Wei army, to come to the front of the Shu army alone, and more specifically, to come to the front of the supreme general of the Shu army, that is, Zhang Bao, who needs to kneel on one knee and raise his saber with both hands to ask Zhang Bao to surrender. Zhang Bao took his saber with one hand, indicating his acceptance of the other party's surrender.

In this process, the commander of the Wei army is equivalent to facing the opponent's thousands of troops alone, and his psychology is under great pressure, if he pretends to surrender, there is a ghost in his heart, and it is easy to show his feet due to excessive pressure. And once the horse's feet are exposed, the other party discovers that he has bad intentions, and he will be in extreme danger.

Because around Zhang Bao, there were countless pro-soldiers, and they pressed the handle of the knife one by one, staring at each other, and when they found something wrong, they would draw their knives and face each other. If you want to understand the psychological pressure on the surrendering generals in this scenario, you can refer to the story of Jing Ke's assassination of King Qin.

Qin Wuyang, who went to assassinate the King of Qin with Jing Ke back then, was not up to par because of his psychological quality, of course, it was also because he had a ghost in his heart, and when he saw the majestic appearance of the Qin court, he couldn't help but tremble with fear, which also made Qin Wangzheng suspicious.

The reason why Zhang Bao put on such a big show is also based on the same principle, through thousands of troops to create a vast power, to intimidate the Wei army commander who came to surrender, if he does not surrender sincerely, under this pressure, there will be some strange performances, and his own people can find out that something is wrong through careful observation.

However, if Liu Hou were here, he would definitely not attend such a surrender ceremony, at least he would not personally accept the saber presented by the Wei generals, the reason is very simple, if you are assassinated in the name of surrender, you will still take a certain risk.

Although they were their own people on the left and right, they could draw their swords or shield to protect themselves at any time, and no matter how high the Assassin's martial arts skills were, it was impossible for them to succeed. But that was for the era of cold weapons, and now, Wei will also make explosives~, what if they tie explosives~ to their bodies and carry out suicide bombing attacks?

can't blame Liu Hou for being too afraid of death, it's really this kind of thing he has seen too much in the news of later generations, people of a certain faith like to play this hand anyway, which is unguardable, and even Lao Mei was overwhelmed by them.

However, for Zhang Bao, no matter how rich his imagination is, he can't imagine such a thing. Zhang Bao, who has been exposed to fire~medicine for many years, can't imagine that the people of Wei, who just have a small amount of fire~medicine, naturally can't think of this "wonderful use" of fire~medicine.

What's more, this kind of suicide attack requires the cost of one's own life, and the people of Wei are not fanatical believers in that kind of faith, and most people still cherish their own lives.

The truth is that Zhang Bao saw the flattering look of the Wei general who surrendered, and very obediently and respectfully dedicated his saber and hands to himself. The first step of the surrender ceremony was successfully completed. The second step was for the surrendered Wei troops to come out one by one, lay down their weapons and unarm at the designated place, and then go to another designated place to surrender.

The Wei army followed the military system of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with a team of five people, a team of five people, a team of five people, a team of ten people, a team of fifty people, a captain, a tun of one hundred people, a tun chief, two hundred people a song, a military marquis, one thousand people, and a Sima or a lieutenant as the main Sima as the deputy.

Therefore, a tun of people is a hundred, that is, the first division is a unit of 100 people to accept the surrender of the Wei army, although the speed of this is very slow, but it is safe enough.

A hundred people entering the camp of the Shu army are like a drop of water entering the sea, and even if they want to make trouble, they can't make any waves. They will not be bound, and after entering the Shu army camp, they will be registered, and then disorganized and placed in the designated camp.

In fact, these so-called camps are just empty land, but it doesn't matter, aren't there ready-made laborers?

The Shu army will send personnel to organize these prisoners who have just surrendered to build barracks for themselves. Anyway, there are woods nearby, and there is a lot of wood, and if you cut it down, you can make building materials, and it doesn't matter if the wood doesn't dry, it's temporary housing anyway, and it's for captives, who cares about the quality of the building?

After this unit went down the mountain to surrender, other troops also came down the mountain one after another to ask for surrender, but due to the large number of people, it took the 1st Division and the Xianbei cavalry two days to complete the reception of all the surrendered troops.

In the end, Cao Hong and Dong Wan took the iron-faced Xiahou Chong down the mountain. That's right, you read that right, it's with it, not with it. It stands to reason that with Xiahou Chong's character, it is impossible to cooperate so much, why doesn't he resist? Why didn't he go down the hill instead of being escorted?

The reason is very simple, after Xiahou Chong woke up, Cao Hong and Dong Wan still restricted his freedom, Xiahou Chong wanted to scold his mother and call someone to save him, but his mouth was gagged with a strip of cloth and he couldn't make a sound.

Cao Hong also asked his own soldiers to bring wine and food, and while eating and drinking in the tent with Dong Wan, he supervised the surrender of the Wei army down the mountain. After almost all the troops had descended the mountain, he untied the rope that bound Xiahou Chong.

Xiahou Chong was tied up overnight, and his whole body was numb, but he was still very angry, and after pulling out the cloth strip in his mouth, he began to curse, and the targets of the scolding were naturally Cao Hong and Dong Wan.

However, the two ignored him at all, sneering while eating and drinking to themselves. Xiahou couldn't inflate, and when he wanted to draw his knife, he found that his saber was already in Dong Wan's hand. He rushed out of the tent and tried to get someone to cut down the two men in the tent.

However, as soon as he came out of the tent, he froze in the hall, and the huge camp was empty, and the 50,000 horses seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, leaving only flags, garbage, and mud in one place.

Of course, it is not that there is no one left, at least there are two pro-soldiers left at the door, these two are the two pro-soldiers who were coaxed and frightened by Cao Hong and Dong Wanlian to convey the order.
