Chapter 696: The End

Zhou Zibin's suicide came very suddenly, and there was only a few breaths between him jumping off the city tower after his words.

Even Tong Zhan, who was standing behind him and had been monitoring Zhou Zibin's every move, didn't have time to react, not only Tong Zhan, but on Zhou Zibin's right, Su Qi'an also inserted Wang Yan's "An" team.

In order to cooperate with Tong Zhan's direct team, Zhou Zibin's jumping off the building, Wang Yan, who had not been exposed behind him, had his palm stretched out, but Zhou Zibin was completely determined to die.

was still a step too late, his fingers touched his clothes, and he watched Zhou Zibin jump to his death.

Zhou Zibin's jumping off the building and the huge landing sound made Su Qi'an and other high-level executives look tense.

They didn't regret Zhou Zibin's death, but they didn't expect that he would end his life in this way.

After all, he is a state pastor, even if he loses in the game with Su Qi'an, he still cherishes his life at least.

Especially when he sits in this position, even if he wants to die, he will struggle before he dies, and he is unwilling, but Zhou Zibin ended his life very cleanly.

Anyway, his jump can be regarded as the end of Su Qi'an's trip to Dongzhou.

Zhou Zibin's suicide, many soldiers in the city, all of them were in a sluggish state, no one could have imagined that the state pastor, who was full of confidence just now and Su Qi'an, would commit suicide and die if he said he would die.

Zhou Zibin's suicide is a relief for himself, but what about their subordinates?

All of a sudden, the soldiers in the city had countless thoughts rising in their hearts, and they seemed to have lost their backbone and panicked.

In the entire city, there was silence in an instant, and no one took the lead to speak, let alone them, even Feng Nan, Wu Xian, Jiang Kun, and Yamashita Yong, who were tied up and witnessed Zhou Zibin's suicide, instantly quieted down.

They all looked shocked, looking at Zhou Zibin, who was not far from them, his body had been stained red with blood, and he was already dead.

The four of them looked at Zhou Zibin's body in a daze, and no one knew what these people were thinking at this moment.

In the silence, after all, it was Su Qi'an who broke the silence, he took a few steps forward and spoke loudly to the soldiers in the city.

"Zhou Zibin, the pastor of Dongzhou, knew that he had committed a serious crime, seriously violated the law, and his crime was unforgivable, so he committed suicide to apologize."

"Ladies and gentlemen, as Dongzhou soldiers, the envoy knows that you and others are also acting on orders, and the envoy is here to promise you that except for those who are extremely evil, as long as the rest of the people take the initiative to lay down their weapons and surrender in Kaecheng, they will not be blamed for the past."

Never liquidate afterwards, it just so happens that His Royal Highness King Yue is also here, to be a witness, and the envoy will do what he says. ”

"Of course, if you refuse to surrender and insist on resisting to the end, the envoy will not be soft, how many kills and more kills, the conditions are given to you, how to choose, you will see it."

Su Qi'an's sudden words made many soldiers who had been silent just now come back to their senses.

Their eyes flickered, and the leaders were whispering, discussing something.

Su Qi'an stood in place, calmly giving these soldiers time to consider.

These people, in the final analysis, are still the army of Da Liang, even if it is not a very strong army in the Hou Jiu County, but it is still the army of Da Liang, if they really attack and annihilate them all, they will only show jokes to Fusang on the other side of the sea.

Among these people, most of them just obey orders, if they are really evil, Su Qi'an will not talk so nonsense with them.

For these people, Su Qi'an already has a plan in his heart, as long as they lay down their arms and surrender, after a period of review, they will eliminate some slippery elements, and those who want to be civilians will be released.

In this Dongzhou war, we will select some experienced backbone officers to supplement them and arrange systematic training, and it is bound to build out these Dongzhou soldiers who have no combat effectiveness.

Of course, these things are a later story, but the premise is that it depends on how these people choose, Su Qi'an is not in a hurry, and gives him enough time.

Anyway, in his words, he is both encouraged, as long as he is not a fool, he naturally knows how to choose.

The deliberations of the soldiers in the city did not waste much time, and in about a quarter of an hour, the closed tower opened, and then a group of soldiers slowly walked out.

According to the arrangement, put the weapon in your hand on the right, and then walk to the open space on the left, squat down and hold your head.

Su Qi'an looked at this scene, nodded with satisfaction, a trace of tension in his heart, and slowly put it down, it was excellent to be able to let these soldiers surrender on their own initiative, if he really resisted, it would be a little troublesome for Su Qi'an.

The surrender of Kaesong in Qingchong County had a chain reaction on the neighboring counties of Sanming and Zuohai.

Basically, it didn't take much effort, and the vast majority of the soldiers in these two county towns chose to surrender on their own initiative.

After all, I heard that even Zhou Zibin committed suicide, they are continuing to resist, what is the difference between looking for death?

It can be said that since Zhou Zibin's death, these Dongzhou soldiers who came to the front line from the Houjiu County have basically lost their morale, and most of them have no intention of resisting.

Some took the initiative to surrender, and naturally there were also those who insisted on stubbornly resisting, and these people were divided into two forces, one was the 3,000 Japanese mobile team that was bravely planted ashore by the mountain, and the other was some of the henchmen and soldiers who were loyal to Zhou Zibin.

These two forces resisted very strongly, and even wanted to use the people in the city as hostages to fight back, for this kind of person, Su Qi'an did not have the slightest habit of it.

The greatest use of ordering the nearby troops to be wiped out and leaving no one behind, is to make an example of them and deter others who have evil intentions.

With the suicide of Zhou Zibin, he took the soldiers of Qingchong County to surrender to the city, and the conspiracy to besiege and take Su Qi'an was completely broken.

As for the stubborn Japanese robbers and henchmen, it only took about half an hour to clean them up.

The current nine counties in Dongzhou can be regarded as returning to the control of Wu Dingguo and Su Qi'an.

Watching the soldiers in the city surrender and walk out, under the order of Wu Dingguo, his soldiers quickly took over the Qingchong County City.

Su Qi'an stood in place, looking at the soldiers who entered the city, a look of sigh appeared on his face, although this battle was only fought for seven or eight days, it exhausted Su Qi'an's mind.

It seemed as if several years had passed, and the tense nerves could finally be relaxed, and he was a little tired, and he knew that this was just the beginning.

In the next Dongzhou, there are still many things that need to be discussed and formulated by him and Wu Dingguo.

In Su Qi'an's trance, in the flow of people who were advancing, there was a person coming in front of him, and this person was none other than Fang Jingzhi, who was in charge of staying behind to monitor Zhou Zibin.

In this battle, Zhou Zibin kept his promise and did not kill Fang Jingzhi, but locked him up.

just wanted to leave him at the end and let him see how Su Qi'an, whom he trusted, would die in front of him, but unfortunately, Zhou Zibin was still a chess opponent of Su Qi'an, and he ended up jumping off the building to his death.

And the soldiers in the city went out of the city to surrender, who could care about the imprisoned Fang Jingzhi, as Wu Dingguo's army entered the city, Fang Jingzhi was naturally released.

Looking at Su Qi'an, who was standing in place, Fang Jingzhi had a look of shame on his face, and wanted to kneel down and plead guilty.

After all, he did not complete the task assigned to him by Su Qi'an, and he was captured by Zhou Zibin, and his master Liu Sheng, who had followed him for many years, became a traitor.

These made Fang Jingzhi very uncomfortable, and it was completely a big sin.

Fang Jingzhi knelt down to plead guilty, Su Qi'an stopped him, supported him, and hurriedly said.

"Fang County ordered that you are not to blame for this, let alone that you are guilty, Zhou Zibin's cunning is something I didn't expect, if you really want to say the crime, it is also my responsibility, because of my negligence, you were arrested."

"No, Master Hou, I don't blame you for this matter, it's not your fault, it's the negligence of the lower officials..."Fang Jingzhi shook his head and explained.

Say anything and take this responsibility, but Su Qi'an said coldly.

"Fang County Order, you are not wrong, this matter has passed, it should be regarded as a lesson, let's not mention it, this envoy has a task to be handed over to you."

"Please give an order from the Inspector, and the Commander will do his best to do it."

"Bury the officers and soldiers who died in this battle, by the way, also bury Liu Sheng and Zhou Zibin."

"Although Master Liu did some wrong things because of a thought, his heart is still good, so let's bury it with those fallen officers and soldiers."

"Although Zhou Zibin is a traitor to the country, he is a state pastor, and it is impossible to expose the corpse in the wilderness, and these affairs must be done."

"The subordinate official assured the supervision envoy that it would be done safely, and if something went wrong, the subordinate official would come to see him."

Fang Jingzhi's expression was excited, and if he looked closely, he would find that there were some tears in his eyes.

He is not crying for Zhou Zibin, but Liu Sheng, who has been by his side for many years.

Don't look at Su Qi'an's simple sentence, burying Liu Sheng and the fallen officers and soldiers together, but it is of great practical significance, which is equivalent to recognizing that Liu Sheng is a sacrifice in disguise, not a traitor.

This is of great significance, it is a kind of honorary respect for the deceased, and Fang Jingzhi knows that what Liu Sheng did in the end is unworthy.

But Su Qi'an is still like this, how can this not move Fang Jingzhi and bow solemnly to Su Qi'an.

Su Qi'an didn't stop it, nodded slightly, and under his eyes, Fang Jingzhi turned around and left.

For Liu Sheng, Su Qi'an still said the same thing, although he did some wrong things in the end, but he didn't cause much trouble in one thought, and he repented before he died, which was enough.

People, at least they have to leave a little reputation until they die, and they don't even let go of the dead, this is not the open-mindedness that a superior person should have.

Watching many soldiers enter the city one after another, Su Qi'an turned around and wanted to express his gratitude to Su Kang, Feng Zheng and others, the king of Yue, who had vigorously supported this battle.

As soon as he turned around, not to mention Su Kang and Feng Zheng, even the generals Zhou Tai and Liu Chuang were gone, leaving only a messenger soldier.

According to Su Kang's meaning, Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo have just taken over Dongzhou, and there are many troubles to do next.

They didn't bother too much, they left first, and did not return to Yuezhou, but in Haizhou City, waiting for Su Qi'an to straighten things out and see you when they were free.

In the face of the rhetoric, Su Qi'an nodded slightly, this is also the answer he wants, the battle of Dongzhou is over, and it has also dismantled Zhou Zibin's conspiracy, but there are some things in it, Su Qi'an wants to find a time to have a good chat with His Royal Highness the King of Yue.
