Since the two envoys have stated that as long as they surrender now and lay down their weapons, their lives will be guaranteed, then the negotiator Mataro Watanabe, who was elected by everyone, feels that surrendering now should be okay.
Besides, seeing that the two envoys were very impatient, they were no longer willing to continue talking to themselves. If you don't seize this opportunity, the other party will never talk to them about surrender again.
When the other party captures Shiliang City, they will all lose their heads.
Therefore, Mataro Watanabe quickly agreed, saying that he would go back immediately to inform the defenders, asking them to lay down their weapons and prepare to surrender.
Hearing what Mataro Watanabe said, the faces of the two single-minded gene messengers finally showed a trace of kindness, which made the big stone in Mataro Watanabe's heart fall a little.
After stabilizing the two envoys, Watanabe Mataro quickly returned to the defenders, and conveyed to the defenders what the envoys said to him and what he meant.
"The other party asked us to immediately put down our weapons and begin to surrender. If we move slower, they will not continue to negotiate with us. And they told me that there is only one such negotiation. If we refuse, they will The attack will begin immediately and surrender will never be accepted again."
When talking about this matter, Mataro Watanabe¡¯s expression was very serious.
"At the same time, the other party Gao warned that if we refuse to surrender this time, then when they capture Shiliang City, none of us will have our heads chopped off."
Well!
After listening to Watanabe Mattaro¡¯s account, all the representatives of the Shira Castle garrison showed horrified expressions on their faces.
"Then what are you waiting for? Put down your weapons immediately. Don't let the envoy think that we are insincere and missed such an opportunity."
Some timid guys immediately shouted that they must surrender immediately, and they must not let the envoys wait impatiently and something unexpected happen.
"Yes, we have to take action immediately. It would be bad if the messenger misunderstood us. It is absolutely true that no one is willing to continue fighting."
Watanabe Mataro¡¯s gaze swept across the faces of the surrounding representatives one by one.
"Yes, what you said is all right. We can't let the envoys have misunderstandings, so now we must start surrendering immediately. But you also need to pay attention to one thing. I am worried that someone will cause trouble at this time. After all, there are still people and We are not of one mind and they want to fight to the end."
Mataro Watanabe is not a fool. He is very familiar with the situation of the current defenders of Shiliang Castle.
Although many of these people now have the same idea as him, which is to end the war and surrender to save their own lives.
However, there are also people who think differently than they do, that is, there is a group of people who want to fight the enemy to the end. People like this can be said to be the mortal enemies of Mataro Watanabe and the others.
Now that the armistice is imminent, surrender is almost done.
As long as there are no accidents, as long as they lay down their weapons and leave the city where they are stationed to hand over to the enemy's army, everything will be considered complete.
"But if those people do something wrong, all of this will be in vain, right?"
Therefore, Mataro Watanabe must not let such a thing happen, and he absolutely does not want these militants to ruin the chance of survival they long for.
"You guys keep an eye on those militants, and if they make any changes, deal with them. Whether we can survive now depends on what happens next. So I don't want the current situation to be affected by those guys. Destroy it.¡±
Those who were selected to meet the standards basically have the same ideas as Mattaro Watanabe.
Therefore, they all deeply agree with Watanabe Mattaro¡¯s proposal.
After a brief contact, these representatives, elected by the soldiers at the bottom, dispersed one after another. They returned to their own teams and told the lower-level soldiers the agreement reached by Mattaro Watanabe and the envoy.
After hearing that the enemy had accepted their offer of surrender and agreed to guarantee their lives after they laid down their weapons and surrendered, they all cheered excitedly.
For these low-level soldiers, they just want to save their lives.
They don¡¯t haveWhat an ambition.
Therefore, it is definitely different from the ideas of a small group of people.
Besides, the Imperial Guards of the Song Empire and the mercenaries of Roderny had already demonstrated their powerful and fierce fighting power when they captured the three-layer defense circle below, completely allowing the defenders of Shiliang City to attack. vision, and at the same time, their morale, courage and self-confidence were completely destroyed.
Under such a situation, how could the defenders of Shiliang City still hold on?
What¡¯s more, the fate of the castle guard Toyaya Saburo and the mid-level and high-level military officers who were assassinated with him are still fresh in their minds.
Therefore, even if they continue to resist, they will not be able to guard against those elusive ninjas.
For various reasons, the defenders of Shiliang City completely did not want to continue fighting.
? It will do no good to them to continue fighting.
It may even anger the enemy and cause them to lose their lives one by one.
Even if they defend Shiliang City, they will get nothing in the end.
Since this is the case, then it is better to surrender like this.
Because Mataro Watanabe had communicated with most of the people, they immediately began to arrange the surrender as soon as they returned to their respective teams.
First, they asked the soldiers to put down their weapons, then lined up in neat queues and began to wait for the surrender to begin.
At this time, of course they will not forget to send their trusted personnel to catch those who may cause trouble and tie them up forcibly.
The purpose of doing this is to prevent anything bad from happening.
Faced with such treatment, these hawks were helpless.
After all, they are so weak alone that they simply cannot fight against so many people. You must know that the lower-level soldiers of the entire Shiliang City garrison are eager to surrender and cease the war.
If they continue to fight the enemy to the end, maybe these guys will dare to kill them all in order to ensure the smooth progress of the surrender.
Therefore, if they are not a fool, they will understand and understand what choices they should have at such a time.
As long as they are honest, their lives can be guaranteed.
"If they were dishonest and wanted to do something else, these former companions who guarded them would not be so polite to them.
Because they saw very obvious murderous intent in the eyes of these former companions.
Outside the city, Zhao Hongyu had seen the situation of the defenders in the fourth layer of defense circle through the telescope. He saw the defenders placing their weapons in a row at a fixed location, and then began to line up neatly.
It can be seen from this that the defenders of Shiliang City have officially surrendered.
"Order the entire army to enter Shiliang City. At the same time, control the surrendered defenders and separate them from the people of Shiliang City. They cannot be allowed to be together with the people of Shiliang City. Someone in the province will incite those People, what happened?"
When Zhao Hongyu knew that the overall situation had been decided, he felt much relieved.
He immediately issued an order for the entire army to garrison Shiliang City.
After all, he still needs to loot Shiliang City and turn all the Japanese wealth in Shiliang City into his own.
Although this approach is a bit bandit, Zhao Hongyu feels that there is nothing wrong in doing so.
Who made Shiliangcheng resist at the beginning?
This wasted a lot of his precious time, so in order to teach them a lesson, what if he robbed them of their money.
¡°At least, it¡¯s pretty good that I didn¡¯t kill them.
At the same time, he also hired people like Rodelney, and he wanted to pay them real money.
And the wealth that may be looted from Shiliang City can be used as salary for Roderny and the others.
And you can also make a small fortune yourself.
Capturing the enemy's city and plundering it was a normal thing in this era.
¡°Besides, what I was plundering was a Japanese city, so I didn¡¯t feel any burden in my heart.
With Zhao Hongyu¡¯s order, the army outside the city began to move slowly.
However, Zhao Hongyubing did not let the entire army enter Shiliang City. After all, a group of soldiers under his command?With many artillery pieces, it would be impossible to garrison Shiliang City, and he would also need to leave some troops to guard these artillery pieces.
These artillery pieces are Zhao Hongyu¡¯s darlings, and they are also the weapons he uses to conquer Kyushu.
Therefore, he must keep it carefully.
"Your Highness, Shira Castle has surrendered, so shall we immediately enter Satsuma Domain and launch an attack on its hinterland? We must know that the soldiers are very fast, and the fall of Shira Castle will definitely be spread in a very short time. That¡¯s right. Therefore, we must capture some key areas immediately before those in the hinterland of Satsuma Domain can react.¡±
As the army set out, a genetic man commander came to the side of Zhao Hongyu¡¯s horse and raised his head and suggested.
Zhao Hongyu was moved by what he said. He thought about it carefully and felt that what the commander said was right.
Therefore, he said to the commander: "Divide yourself into two thousand-man troops, that is, the strength of two legions, and carry fifty artillery pieces at the same time to immediately launch an attack on the southern part of Satsuma Domain."
