Cai Yongkunsan hurriedly stepped forward and stopped in front of Zhou Qing.
"Now the war is about to begin. We should have been unanimous in fighting with the outside world. Now we are fighting first. What does this mean?"
Zhou Qing said angrily: "Lao Cai, don't pretend to be a good person here. Didn't you hear what he just said?"
"This boneless coward actually calls me avatar. I'll chop him up!"
Zhou Qing made a move to chop, but fortunately Cai Yongkun made a quick move and caught Zhou Qing.
"If you have something to say, why do you need to use a knife..."
Looking at Pang Guoxing with murderous intent, Zhou Qing said angrily: "Say it nicely? So many of us have died, and he asked me to surrender to the enemy. How do you want me to say it nicely?"
"You know that so many people have died? Do you still want all your brothers to die?"
"Yong's army is so powerful that only one county soldier can block you from the city. Now that Prince Yong's palace has sent out all its powerful troops, how can you stop them?"
"Shut up!" At this moment, Zhou Qing really had murderous intentions.
"You want revenge, but you let your brothers die in vain. Who will avenge these brothers who died because of your own anger?"
"Isn't it that everyone came to Longyou just to find a way to survive? But you want your brothers to die!"
"Asshole..."
"Tell yourself, do you put the interests of your brothers first or your own face first?"
At this time, Pang Guoxing himself expressed his anger.
"You want to kill me? Why do you want to kill me? Just because I find a way for my brothers to survive?"
There was such a loud noise in the yard that people outside could hear it, so many people were listening carefully.
The officers drove away the ordinary soldiers, but they stayed under the wall and listened carefully to what was going on inside.
At this time, Cai Yongkun shouted: "Okay, stop talking!"
Zhou Qing seemed to have calmed down a bit, smashed the knife on the ground, turned around and stopped looking at Pang Guoxing.
The situation calmed down. Seeing that the two men were silent, Cai Yongkun said: "It's a matter of life and death for brothers. Lao Pang is right. No matter what... the brothers came to Longyou for survival, not for survival."
Seeking death!"
"The lives and deaths of our brothers are not decided by you or me, but by the brothers!"
At this point, Cai Yongkun walked to the door and shouted outside: "Go out and call all the people from 100 households or above!"
"yes!"
Neither of the two people in the room had any objections to this, and a few minutes later more than thirty people rushed to the yard.
Pang Zhou did not speak, while Cai Yongkun told the inside story without any bias in the explanation.
"That's how it is, how to choose... let's all make up our minds together!"
The officers in the hospital looked at each other, all of them looking particularly surprised.
Surrender... If you can survive by surrendering, then why not surrender?
After yesterday's fighting, the morale of the Forbidden Army was low. Last night, the Dragon Guard was overwhelmed in a few rounds, further damaging the morale of the Forbidden Army.
Today, they will face the truly elite Yong Army, and the generals will naturally feel fear.
The problem now is that after surrendering and disarming, you become a lamb to be slaughtered, and there is no way to guarantee your own safety.
If Yong Jun had murderous intentions, they wouldn't even have a place to cry.
So an officer asked a question: "Sir, after our army surrendered, Yongjun's army became murderous..."
Looking at the people's praying eyes, Pang Guoxing replied: "Don't forget, we are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and the Yong army is also the soldiers and horses of the imperial court... Why do they have to kill us?"
"When we came here, Cui Qianhu told me that Prince Yong's Mansion was originally going to supply us with food, but this time we go south to attack...it's like robbing us of our own things!"
"Have you forgotten that Prince Yong's Mansion was transporting grain to Beidi County ten days ago, which shows that they really want to save us!"
"You have all seen the situation in Longyou. This King Yong has lofty ambitions and wants to end the troubled times. He needs more manpower and material resources..."
After explaining this, Pang Guoxing asked: "So...why did Yong Jun want to kill us?"
"This time the Yong army is encircled, it will be easy to clear this place. Don't make any mistakes!"
Next, everyone asked other questions, and Pang Guoxing answered them one by one.
Half an hour later, everyone had asked about the situation and had an understanding of Yong's army's combat power and the palace's policies.
At this time, it was time to make a decision.
Cai Yongkun walked to the center of the yard and said in a deep voice: "Those who are willing to surrender will stand on the west side, and those who will fight to the end will stand on the east side..."
After saying this, no one present moved.
Although they already had a plan, they were still a little hesitant about what step to take.
Within five miles of Zhuangzi, several Yong Army teams had blocked key roads to ensure that the Imperial Army could be trapped inside.
On the official road to Zhuma, Liu Shan looked ahead and asked: "Master Qianhu, we only have half an hour. Do you think...will they surrender?"
Cui Xing'an expressed pessimism about this, so he said: "Let the brothers be ready and prepare to attack in two moments!"
There are four quarters in half an hour. According to what was said before, we should attack after four quarters.
Seeing Liu Shan's hesitation, Cui Xing'an turned around and said, "Do we have to be honest with our enemies?"
In fact, the time mentioned by Cui Xing'an was the time when Yong's army actually attacked, and the same was true for other ministries.
"I understand the humble position!"
Liu Shan said no more and immediately sent the order.
Just as Yong's army was preparing to attack, several riders came from the direction of Zhuangzi.
As the visitors approached, they could be seen to be Pang Guoxing and others.
"They are willing to surrender, they are willing to surrender!" Pang Guoxing shouted.
Soon, Pang Guoxing came to Cui Xingan.
"Cui Qianhu, they are willing to surrender!" Pang Guoxing said solemnly.
The surrounding Yong army mobilized, which made Pang Guoxing think that they were about to attack, so he panicked.
After a few breaths of silence, Cui Xingan said: "Want to surrender? I don't see their sincerity!"
Pang Guoxing asked: "How can we be sincere?"
Cui Xing'an said: "At least the other two commanders will come out, and Qianhu first-level officers will come out!"
Surrendering was also risky, so Cui Xingan had to be cautious.
This request was not excessive, but it made Pang Guoxing very embarrassed.
"Mr. Pangda, please go back and run again. Don't delay too long. This matter will drag on for a day or two... I'm afraid they will run out of food first!"
This is the most critical part. The food route for the Forbidden Army has been cut off, and the existing food reserves can only last for two days at most.
"Okay...I'll go to the village again!" Pang Guoxing turned around and returned.
When Pang Guoxing left, Cui Xing'an immediately said to the messenger: "Inform other ministries that the Forbidden Army has agreed to surrender, and let everyone stand still!"
"yes!"
The news quickly spread to various ministries. When they heard that the Forbidden Army had chosen to surrender, some were happy and some were unhappy.
"Reduced? Then our trip was in vain!" Gao Zhengan was furious.
Of course, what made him even more unhappy was that this forced surrender was led by Cui Xingan.
Someone next to me said: "Sir, it's better not to fight. If we fight together... I don't know how many people will die!"
"You know nothing!" Gao Zhengan cursed.
Of course, he only dared to complain. The surrender of the Imperial Army was Zhao Yanxun's strategy. Gao Zhengan didn't have the guts to cause trouble, which would be tantamount to committing suicide.
