- "Sir, His Highness asks you to stop attacking and immediately send envoys to contact the enemy to see if they will surrender."
In a short time, the messenger conveyed Zhao Hongyu's order to the Imperial Guard commander who had occupied various defense facilities on the third floor.
"What, stop attacking? Why is that?"
The commander who heard this order suddenly was still a little confused about it.
"Why is this order from His Highness? The momentum of our attack is very good now. If we stop now to give the enemy a chance to reorganize their front, then if we start the attack again, we will be in a passive situation."
The commander looked a little unhappy because he felt that Zhao Hongyu¡¯s order was a random order.
After all, this commander is a genetic person with independent thinking and intelligent personality, so he has the right to think independently.
He is not like those soldiers at the grassroots level who just know how to follow Zhao Hongyu's orders without thinking about right or wrong.
Therefore, in an instant, this commander with independent command thinking, his sense of Zhao Hongyu dropped a lot. This further affected his loyalty to Zhao Hongyu and decreased a bit. This is the difference between genetic people with independent thinking and thinking patterns and those genetic people cultivated in batches.
This is why Zhao Hongyu is very cautious when cultivating genetic humans.
Because although these genetic people are very useful, if you do something wrong, the loyalty of these genetic people to you will decrease.
In the end, if you only know how to eat, drink and have fun, then these genetic people will rise up and rebel against you.
"Compared to people of this era, if these genes were breakfast for people, their destructive power would be much greater.
¡°Maybe, it¡¯s not certain that I will really be overthrown.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu always reminds himself in his heart that he must be careful not to do the wrong thing when doing things, because doing the wrong thing will have a great impact.
Facing the commander's confusion, the messenger who knew the reason explained: "Your Highness has sent the Iga people to assassinate the enemy generals in Shiliang City. Now the enemy forces in Shiliang City have fallen into a leaderless state. , and after the instigation of some of the Iga people hiding among them, the enemy's military morale is now unstable, and many people have plans to surrender. At this time, stopping the attack and contacting them will also allow us to solve the problem as soon as possible Fight here to reduce some of the casualties we may have."
Well! So that¡¯s what happened.
After listening to the explanation of the messenger, the commander finally understood Zhao Hongyu.
Loyalty, which was originally declining, has now risen a lot and exceeded its original level.
"Well, I understand now. It seems that I just thought too much." The commander nodded and muttered to himself. "Then does your Highness have anything else to say?"
"His Highness said, let the other side surrender unconditionally, and we will guarantee their life safety. If they continue to resist, we will leave no chickens or dogs behind after the city is broken."
The messenger quickly conveyed Zhao Hongyu¡¯s meaning clearly.
"Okay, then you should convey this order to Viscount Roderney at the front and ask them to stop attacking immediately. I will select people here as envoys, and we will start contact with the enemy."
At this time, Roderney was leading his Portuguese mercenaries in a fierce battle with the defenders on the fourth floor on the winding mountain road.
Because the castle guard Toyaya Saburo was assassinated, and there was chaos behind them, the resistance here seemed a bit chaotic.
But even so, the defenders of Shiliang City who were still fighting put a lot of pressure on Roderny.
The two sides were going back and forth on the winding city road, fighting each other for every step.
"And Rodelney and the others will pay a heavy price every time they take a step forward.
At this time of hand-to-hand combat, the mercenaries¡¯ super physical strength, tall stature, and their strong European-style armor highlighted their powerful advantages.
Often these mercenaries are able to force the defenders back due to their strength.
"The defenders of Shiliang City, who were much weaker, had nothing to do about this.
At the same time, the weapons of the Shiliang City defenders were unable to cause much damage to the mercenaries in front of them. Unless you stab their face, or the gap in their armor, you can give themCause trauma.
But the problem is that the mercenaries are not stupid. They will raise the shields in their hands to defend the vital points of their bodies, and will not give the soldiers of Shiliang City a chance at all.
In addition, these mercenaries are tall and powerful, and they use heavy weapons. These heavy weapons caused the defenders of Shiliang City to suffer a lot in such hand-to-hand combat.
Often when those kind of chain hammers are swung over, even if you raise your hand to block, you can't avoid the spiked chain hammer hitting their head. The nail-headed awl will also smash their arms, and then the sharp vertebrae will fall on their heavenly spirits.
Basically, if hit by such a heavy weapon, the target will die immediately.
Even if you don¡¯t die, you will actually be seriously injured and you will be close to death.
These Portuguese were very cunning. They basically aimed at the heads of the defenders of Shiliang City.
Behind the mercenaries, there were many spearmen and halberdiers, who took the opportunity to thrust out their weapons and inflict casualties on the defenders of Shiliang City. At the same time, many crossbowmen also took the opportunity to thrust their weapons Pull the trigger and shoot the arrow.
The weapons used by the defenders of Shiliang City were much inferior to those of the mercenaries.
Although they also have spears, because they are fighting at close range, it is difficult for these spear weapons to exert their power.
As for the long bows used by the defenders, because of the crowds, it was impossible to open the bows and set arrows.
Because they had no command, they could only fight the mercenaries in a chaotic manner, which prevented them from exerting their maximum combat effectiveness.
On the other hand, although the soldiers faced an enemy whose strength was several times greater than their own, they were under great pressure, and every step forward was quite difficult.
However, the formation of the soldiers was not chaotic at all, they were arranged in an orderly manner.
Therefore, although it was difficult, the queue of mercenaries was slowly advancing all the time. The defenders of Shiliang City had no way to stop their advance.
"Come on! Crush them! These Japanese dwarf monkeys are no longer able to survive. If you guys work harder, we can defeat them."
Roderny, who was behind, had been paying attention to the battle situation. He had already seen the problem in the enemy team, which was that there was too much chaos.
Although Rodelny didn¡¯t know why the enemy made such a low-level mistake, Rodelny knew very well that this was an opportunity for him.
Although Rodelny is not a genius, he does not have any super talent in military affairs.
" However, it is impossible for him, who has studied military knowledge since he was a child, not to know this.
The confusion of the formation is a big mistake for the army in battle.
But for the side that has a complete queue and is not messy at all, that is an opportunity.
"My lord! My lord!"
"who?"
Just as Roderney was encouraging his men, hoping that his men would defeat the defenders in front and then begin to rush through the destroyed city gate, a call suddenly came from behind him.
He looked back and saw a soldier wearing the uniform of the Song Empire running up the winding mountain road. As he ran, he shouted to himself.
"Oh, are there any new orders?"
Seeing that it was the messenger from the Song Empire, Roderny immediately smiled.
For him, the Song Empire was a big benefactor, so it was not easy for the other party's soldiers to offend him.
Therefore, anyone can see that the smile on Rodelny¡¯s face is so flattering.
"My lord, His Highness orders you to stop the attack immediately. We need to make contact with the other side. There are circumstances that indicate that the enemy is likely to surrender."
The messenger told Roddelny again what he had said to the genetic man commander Huang Xiaoming, and at the same time explained the reasons.
Knowing the reason, Roderny immediately ordered the mercenaries to be withdrawn to a safe distance.
To the mercenaries who work for money, Zhao Hongyu¡¯s orders don¡¯t matter.
¡° Anyway, they take money, and as long as Zhao Hongyu gives money, they will obey Zhao Hongyu¡¯s orders.
As long as you give them money, Zhao Hongyu will say white is black, and those who get paid to do things will agree with him.
In terms of professional ethics, European mercenaries are pretty good.
Of course, the premise is that you don¡¯t owe money and pay money on time.
???????????? Once you can¡¯t pay, it¡¯s a big deal.
Besides, if the enemy is really willing to surrender, it would be a good thing for Roderney and the others.
Because this can allow them to avoid greater casualties, right?
Now it is very obvious that the higher they attack, the greater the blocking pressure they will receive.
And now they have only conquered the third layer of defense circle, and there are still six layers of defense circle that have not been conquered.
Based on the current situation, Rodelny is worried that the losses under his command will become greater and more numerous in the future.
"The enemy is retreating!"
The defenders of Shiliang City found that the enemy was fighting fiercely with them, and suddenly they withdrew for no apparent reason.
This made them breathe a sigh of relief and at the same time they were extremely happy.
The attacks of these enemies are really too fierce, and they are also very fierce.
If this continues, they will soon be unable to withstand it.
The cheers of the defenders made Roderney and the mercenaries roll their eyes.
"Everyone, please take a rest. His Highness is ready to persuade you to surrender. If these Japanese monkeys do not surrender, we will continue to attack."
Roderny shouted to his men. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
