"Is it so important whether the money is paid or not?" The man stood up angrily, but was held down by two soldiers. "In terms of actions and reasons, I am much more innocent than Fan Qiong... Please note that Zhao was incompetent that day.

, abandon the country first!”

"Bold!" Wang Yuan shouted, and all the surrounding generals drew their swords.

"Let him say it." Zhao Jiu didn't take it seriously.

"Why don't you dare to say it?" The man stood up and raised his head to face each other. He saw that his hair and beard were all stained by mud, but his eyes were about to split. "The world must belong to you, the Zhao family, and we, the people of Western Beijing, will work for you first."

The Zhao family has abandoned it, the Jin army is approaching the city, and you, an official, are nowhere to be found, and your parents and children are all around you. If you don't pay money, who will keep your family safe?"

"What you said makes perfect sense. I was wrong, and the two saints were also wrong. If this battle really resulted in countless casualties, after the war I could issue an edict to sin against myself, or I could issue an edict to sin against myself on behalf of my father and brother... Moreover, I

I also know that some of you are indeed wronged and innocent." Zhao Jiu replied calmly, as if he had thought about this problem seriously for a long time. "But I just don't want to negotiate terms with the traitors who surrender the gold! Again, if you come to surrender,

Just open the city and tie up your hands, and then let me handle it, that's all."

"Official family."

The man suddenly became calm again. "You must know that there are thousands of households in the city..."

"Looking at you, you must be someone who has read books." Zhao Jiu couldn't hide his anger immediately. "Then you should know that there have been similar rules since the Han Dynasty. Those who threaten hostages will not be attacked or killed. If you really want to do this, you can only

It will only make it more serious when I deal with you afterwards!"

The man looked at each other in shock, and then asked again after a moment: "Will the officials leave us a way to survive?"

"I only want you to surrender unconditionally and let me do whatever I want." Zhao Jiu responded simply. "That's it. If you have nothing to do, just go back and convey it!"

The messenger sighed and turned to leave.

As soon as the person left, Wang Yuan leaned over and said: "Guan family, in the end this person was just a false threat. It should be noted that the war was urgent that day. They came to Dengzhou with Wanyan Yinshu, but their family members stayed here... for this reason

, how dare they do such a shameful thing?"

Zhao Jiu nodded, but was unwilling to say more about the matter.

But there were many people around who were blind, so Liu Ziyu couldn't bear it any longer and asked, "With such persecution, the officials are really going to kill tens of thousands of people all over the city? This is not what a wise king would do!"

"When did I say that I would kill thousands of people?" Zhao Jiu responded coldly. "Even if it is done, the leader will be beheaded at most, and the rest of the guilty will be sent to hard labor and work as trackers on the river for a few years. As for the rest of the innocent people,

Soldiers, how can they be charged without reason? You can't just pick those with outstanding physiques and use them. If there are young people, you have to give them money and food on the spot to let them go home."

"I think so too." Liu Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief. "In that case, why don't you give me a hint? As long as they understand, I'm afraid they will surrender immediately given their current attitude."

"We just can't talk." Zhao Jiu sighed and continued to look down at the papers on the case. "We talked today, what will happen tomorrow? Dengzhou talked, what will happen to Lianghe, Central Plains, Kansai, and hundreds of military states in the future?

?This is the rule of war between the Song and Jin Dynasties. Once it is shaken, it will make countless people take chances before the war."

"The officials are very thoughtful." Liu Yanxiu was solemn, but slightly startled. "It's because my vision is too low."

Zhao Jiu was too lazy to pay attention to the other party, but since he mentioned this, the official couldn't help but look around at the embarrassed generals in the tent, and took advantage of the situation to move away:

"Did you understand just now? I am not pardoning Dengzhou today, not because of the many misdeeds they have committed by paying me money for two months, but because I want to use them to warn you remaining generals... There are many things happening in the army.

Tens of thousands, the most basic thing is to drop gold. This thing is even more unbearable than Liu Guangshi's running away... Disobeying orders and running away will make the army empty and useless. I will only kill the general, and his troops can be reorganized and used.

But once the money is dropped, they will become enemies rather than friends, and I will have nothing to say to them anymore! I hope you will remember it!"

Fortunately, Wang De, Hu Yantong and others didn't have such an option in their minds. After hearing this, they just casually handed over their hands to express their acceptance of the order. Fu Qing, on the other hand, was more awe-inspiring.

There was no word for the whole night. The next day, April 12, unexpectedly, the four gates of Dengzhou City suddenly opened wide, and the rebels abandoned their troops and came out of the city to surrender.

"Who were the envoys who left the city twice before and where were they?" Zhao Jiu asked curiously as he looked at the people kneeling in the mud in front of him.

"The good instructor knows that the man is Caizhou patrol inspector Li Shang. He came back yesterday to persuade me to wait until we surrendered. Knowing that he would not be exempted, he gathered all the generals in the city, surrounded them first, and then killed them himself." Someone.

He raised his head and faced each other. "The one who left the city today is no more than a general."
