Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

Chapter 255: To destroy Chongqing Mansion, is it to massacre the city?

The Chongqing Mansion's military strength was too empty, with only more than 2,000 defenders. In the past ten days, he had also trained some civilians, hoping to let them go to the battlefield to defend the city.

And tell these civilians that this is to protect their homes and country. If you can't wait to go to the battlefield to fight the Mongols, then what will happen after breaking the dust?

Over a period of more than ten days, they successively captured 20,000 civilians. But if you let these civilians build city walls, carry grain and grass, carry rolling logs and fallen rocks, that would be fine.

If we really want them to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, then haha!

Even after the Mongolian army besieged the city, these civilians had a large number of people fleeing every day, and it was impossible for their two thousand troops to go from house to house to find them.

However, no matter what, for the sake of his country and the country of the Song Dynasty, and in order to serve the imperial court, he must stick to Chongqing Mansion, even if it lasts for several years, he will have to wait until the imperial reinforcements arrive.

If it weren't for the purpose of delaying time, he would have killed the two groups of Mongolian envoys long ago to strengthen everyone's determination to defend the city.

"Sir! We, we only have more than two thousand defenders, and they can't even defend the city wall!

The Mongols just conducted a round of bombing with flint cannons, and hundreds of brothers were killed. Now many brothers are hiding under the towers and dare not show their faces. How can we defend the city? "A general sighed helplessly and said.

"You bastard, how dare you say such an outrageous thing?

If you can't hold it, do you want to surrender to the Mongols? As a minister of Song Dynasty, I will die as a minister of Song Dynasty, and I, all the people of Chongqing Mansion.

If we, the Song Dynasty, live and die together, even if we die, the people in the city will die for the country. "The civil servant raised his hands, clasped his fists in the direction of Lin'an Mansion in the south, and said.

But there is only death. I am a loyal person, so why not die?

If the Mongols really broke the city, he would gather the people in the city together, set a fire, and die together with the people in the city.

The people in the whole city must also be thinking about the good things of the Song Dynasty. They are willing to die, how can they survive in this world?

Hearing this, not only the generals kneeling on the ground, but also a group of generals next to them also twitched their mouths.

Your Excellency, you are noble, you are a loyal minister, and you want to die for your country, but why do you drag the whole city to die with you?

There are 800,000 residents in our Chongqing Prefecture. What you are saying is that you want to take our 800,000 people in Chongqing Prefecture to die for our country.

"You go out of the city immediately and mobilize the civilians who have just been recruited to the city wall to defend the city.

And told the whole village that if the Mongols break the city, then all the people in our city will be killed.

We must all sacrifice our lives for the country together to repay the emperor's great kindness and repay the kindness of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. "The civil servant said in a very upright and awe-inspiring manner.

At this moment, a huge roar came from outside the city, boom! Boom!

Under Zhang Yong's order, the Mongolian army continued to attack, and a large number of soldiers continued to suffer casualties.

"Sir! Chengdu Prefecture, as well as some other prefectures, all surrendered to the Mongols.

The other party did not harm the local people! There are more than 800,000 people in Chongqing Prefecture. How about we save the lives of these people? "A general gritted his teeth and said.

You are loyal, but you want to drag all the people in the city to die together. Is this wrong? How could all the people in this city do anything wrong, and they should be buried with you?

"Rat! How dare you talk nonsense? Someone and I will drag him out and behead him on the spot!" The civil servant snorted coldly and said.

"Sir! It doesn't matter if we die for our country, but why do we have to drag down the people in the city? What I said in my humble position is to find a way for the people in the city to survive!" the general asked in shock.

"Bah! How dare you disturb the morale of our army! Why are you still standing there? Why don't you push this man out and behead him as a warning to others?" said the officer.

"Sir! The Mongols are attacking the city at this time. It is the time to hire people. Please don't kill Lord Wu, just spare him once!" Several generals knelt on the ground and said.

"You warriors are harming the country, you warriors are harming the country, you are greedy for life and afraid of death."

When the local generals present heard this, they were all angry from the bottom of their hearts.

We are the ones defending the city with all our lives, but the fastest ones are you, the civil servants, who speak so righteously.

Everything you do is just lip service, and you didn't go to the city to defend it. Why are you saying that after the city is destroyed, the people in the city will burn themselves with you? Sacrifice yourself for your country.

"Master Mao! How come we warriors and generals have misled the country? If there were 20,000 troops.

Then we must hold on to the city, but didn't Supervisor Lu escape with an army of 30,000 people?

If he could guard Hanzhong, we would not be in this situation. "A general stood up and said.

"Common man! How dare you, a warrior, speak nonsense? If it weren't for the opportunity to employ people now, I would have killed you all." Master Mao said.

Whatever our civil servants ask you to do, you warriors just do it. How dare you complain? How dare these vulgar people speak to me?

Being in the same room as you is a stain on my identity.

Mr. Lu is the supervisor of the army, and his life is naturally precious. How can the lives of you warriors be compared?

Moreover, Mr. Lu led hundreds of thousands of troops into Guanzhong to fight in a bloody battle with the Mongolian army. There must be important military information to be reported to the court. How dare you and other warriors talk nonsense?

While several people were arguing, two soldiers came over and grabbed the hands of the general who had just spoken and pressed them to the ground.

But they are still hesitating whether to really push their general out and behead him in public.

"If you don't push him out and behead him, I will hang his head high on the city wall and tell all the soldiers to defend the city with their lives. Anyone who dares to take a step back will be like this." Master Mao said.

"I just want to save the lives of the people in the city, Mao, why do you want to kill me?" The general who was pressed to the ground said angrily.

I am greedy for life and afraid of death, but look at how the imperial court treats us warriors.

Those military generals in the central government are better off. Local military attachés like them, even a sixth-grade military general, cannot hold their heads high in front of those seventh-grade civil servants. When someone scolds you, you don't even dare to talk back.

There is a saying that is not good. If someone submits a memorial, you will be dismissed directly and investigated.

"Hmph! Let me lend you your head to boost the morale of our army. Come on! Go and push those two groups of Mongolian envoys out and behead them. Throw all the heads out of the city to show the Mongols our determination to defend Chongqing. "Mao Qiu said.

When all the generals heard this, they were all shocked. If they really killed the Mongolian envoy, they would have no way out.

If we surrender now, we might still be able to talk. If the Mongolian envoy is killed. Then after the city is broken, it may be a massacre, and then there will be no need for all the people in the city to die for the country.

"Stop!" A general stood up and stopped two soldiers who were about to leave.

"Now this general orders you to release General Liu."

The two soldiers looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and actually let go of their hands, letting General Liu go.

"How dare you disobey military orders? Are you trying to rebel?" Mao Qiu said with a cold snort.

"Bah, we are all warriors, we don't know how to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

We are not worthy of talking to you and other civil servants. In this case, we have different ways and cannot conspire with each other. We will simply open the city and surrender. "A military commander said.

"Bold! When I report to the emperor, you will all be dismissed from office and investigated." Mao Qiu said.

"All of us military generals will be dismissed from their posts and investigated. All of them will be demoted and exiled. Let's see who will defend the country for the Song Dynasty." A military general said.

"Bah! Mao, I have tolerated you for a long time. You are just a sixth-grade official. Your official position is the same as ours. We are all sixth-grade officials. Why do you control the entire city defense of Chongqing?" A military general said He drew out his saber and roared.

"Hmph! You want the people in the city to be buried together for you to fulfill your loyalty, but have you ever thought about the people in the city?

They are just ordinary people. They have never read any books by sages and just want to eat and survive. "A military commander said.

"Brothers, now that the Mongols have attacked, this is our last chance to surrender. Otherwise, everyone knows the Mongolian style.

That must be a massacre! After this King of Guanzhong entered the land of Sichuan and Shu, he did not cause any killings and was also quite friendly to the people of Sichuan and Shu. I can't wait to surrender as soon as possible. "A military commander said.

at this time! The explosion and roar outside the house were even more tragic, and the huge roar made everyone's hearts tremble. The remaining generals, who were wavering, also drew their sabers and surrounded Master Mao.

"Sir, for the sake of our lives and the lives of the people in this city, I have wronged you and let a certain family lend you your head." After the military commander finished speaking, he picked up his knife and slashed at Mao Qiu's neck.

"You, you are brave!"

Just when Mao Qiu closed his eyes and waited for death, a steel knife was placed in the middle, saving his life. The person who took action was the general who was about to be killed by him before.

"General Xue! What do you mean? Why don't you let me kill this beast?"

"I have to save him. Think about it, if we kill him and the King of Guanzhong blames us, who will he take out his anger on?

It is this person who does not allow our Chongqing government to surrender. We should keep his life and hand him over to the King of Guanzhong.

Instead of killing him privately, we will immediately release the Mongolian envoys and tell them that we are willing to surrender. General Xue said.

Pooh! He is not in the mood to save this Master Mao! He just wanted to save his life!

If you kill him now, it will certainly relieve your anger, but after the surrender, the King of Guanzhong will blame him. Who of you will take the blame?

"You! You guys, woo woo woo!" Mr. Mao wanted to say something else, but a general came over immediately, blocked his mouth with a piece of rag, then turned his hands over, and directly Tied up.

"Without further delay, let's quickly release the Mongolian envoys and let them leave the city, saying that we want to surrender."

"it is good!"

Several military generals quickly gathered some of the surrounding troops, and then rushed to the place where the Mongolian envoys were detained.

After these Mongolian envoys arrived, they were not received at all. As soon as they entered the city, they had a knife put on their necks and then pressed down here.

The bombardment continued until it was getting dark, and the tower above was filled with smoke.

"King Guanzhong, why don't we attack at night? I don't think there are many defenders in Chongqing Mansion. If we attack at this time, we will definitely be able to capture the city in one fell swoop." A Han general said.

"Don't worry, I'm going to use the Feitian Artifact to go up and take a look, just in case they have soldiers ambushing them under the city." Zhang Yong smiled and said.

After bombing for half a day, and even after the barrel of the thunderbolt cannon burned red, he switched to a trebuchet and continued to fire explosive packets.

Now, the defenders above Chongqing Mansion have been beaten so hard that they can't even raise their heads. He now plans to send a drone in to see what's going on inside.

Under the cover of night, drones are not easy to detect. Go first into the city to see their specific troop deployment, and then decide whether to attack the city overnight.

However, just when Zhang Yong was about to activate the drone, the city gate of Chongqing Mansion suddenly opened, and a group of people dressed like military generals and several Mongolian envoys walked out of the city.

"King Guanzhong, stop fighting, we are willing to surrender, we are willing to surrender!" Several generals in the Chongqing Prefecture shouted loudly as they walked.

Zhang Yong and several generals looked at each other and waved over there. A group of cavalry immediately came forward and took several military generals and the Mongolian envoys back to the Chinese army's tent.

"I tried to persuade you a few days ago, but you were unwilling to surrender. Now, I have only fired a few cannons, and you want to surrender?" Zhang Yong sat in the center of the tent, looking at several generals kneeling on the ground and asked. road.

"King Guanzhong, it's not that we don't want to surrender, but there is a Mao Shangguan in the city. He has never allowed us to surrender. He has taken control of the military power in the city and imprisoned all the Mongolian envoys you sent to the city before." A general knelt on the ground and spoke.

"Oh! So, Master Mao has thought clearly and is now planning to surrender to me!" Zhang Yong asked.

"No, we tied up Master Mao and took away his military power, so that we could surrender to the city." The surrendered general in Chengdu Mansion said.

"Really!" Zhang Yong smiled and looked at everyone.

"King Guanzhong! We really had no choice before. He controlled the entire military power, and even wanted the entire city to die with him. That's why we tied him up."

"Okay! Now open the city gate and introduce the king's army into the city." Zhang Yong said.

"King Guanzhong, can you promise me to wait without harming the lives of the people in the city?" A surrendered general knelt on the ground and asked.

"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me. If you surrendered before, I will definitely not kill you! But now, I want to massacre the city." Zhang Yong said this, paused for a moment, and looked at the man kneeling on the ground. A bunch of generals.

"King Guanzhong! This is all the idea of ​​that man surnamed Mao. It has nothing to do with the people in the city, let alone us! If you want to kill, just kill him! Don't kill the people in the city!" A military commander suddenly said In a hurry, he knelt on the ground and said.

"I can't break the rules! If you surrender, you will be treated kindly. If you resist, the city will be massacred." Zhang Yong's expression changed and he said.

"King of Guanzhong! Please think twice! It is ominous to kill prisoners, and it is even more ominous to massacre the city." A general from Sichuan and Sichuan who had surrendered to Zhang Yong immediately knelt on the ground and said.

Did they really not expect that the King of Guanzhong, who usually seemed so gentle, would actually intend to massacre the city?

There are more than 800,000 people in Chongqing Prefecture! If you kill them all in one go.

Do you still want to establish yourself in this entire land of Sichuan and Sichuan?

"King Guanzhong, think twice! Please spare the lives of the people in the city." A general who followed from Hanzhong also knelt on the ground and said.

Even several generals who had followed from Guanzhong knelt on the ground and begged Zhang Yong not to massacre the city.

"Your Majesty, think twice!"

"What do you guys think? Tell us about Chatuohua." Zhang Yong took a fancy to the few Mongolian families next to him, and asked Chatuohua, who was the first to follow him.

"Master Envoy of God! According to the rules, the city should indeed be massacred! But they did not kill the envoy. Now the city is considered to have surrendered. I think they can be accommodating and forget about massacre of the city." Cha Tuo Hua Qianhu stood up and said He spoke.

Several other Mongolian households were stunned. That's not right. According to their rules.

Lord God Envoy did the right thing, we should massacre the city, what are you talking about?

And after massacring the city, we can also plunder a large amount of finances. If we don’t massacre, we won’t get anything!

Cha Tuoyan glanced at his colleagues and shook his head speechlessly. The first few Mongolian families who followed Zhang Yong before also stood on his side and opposed the massacre.

After all, I have been with Zhang Yong for almost three years, and I still know a little about my boss.

The rules of the Mongolian army are indeed like this. He, the king of Guanzhong, cannot break them, but if thousands of families like them persuade them, they can be broken.

Zhang Yong seemed to be asking for their opinions, but in fact he had already given his own answer and was just asking them to speak.

"Well! Since all of you think it's better not to massacre the city, then we won't massacre the city.

But I can spare the people of the city. I need all the aristocratic families in the city to give me part of their money, at least half of their family's money, to reward the three armies. "Zhang Yong said.

Of course it is impossible to massacre the city, but I have to find a way to get off.

And taking this opportunity, Zhang Yong also planned to give a big blow to the wealthy families in the city.

I will not attack ordinary people, but I will kill the aristocratic families in Chongqing.

Anyway, if there is a suitable reason, why not do it?

I originally wanted to massacre the city, but now I just want you to hand over some money, and you have taken advantage.

"Thank you to the King of Guanzhong for not killing him. Don't worry, King of Guanzhong. We will definitely ask all the big and wealthy merchants in the city to give some money to reward the three armies." A group of Chongqing generals kneeling on the ground said with a sigh of relief.

"Remember, not part of it, but half. I want half of the property of all the wealthy families in the city." Zhang Yong said with a sneer. (End of chapter)
