Chapter 114

In Datong Mansion, several people had just had a meal. Yelu Renxian said to Yelu Zong: "King, what are you thinking about? Today is the last day after the Song army commander gave him three days. If you don't agree, they will attack the city tomorrow."

Yelu Zong said, "If I don't offer the city, what can they do? Will there be no one who will die in the attack?"

Yelu Ren sighed first: "Of course, people will die in attacking the city. Not only will the Song people die, but the Khitan people will also die. Moreover, the Song army said that after the city is broken, the first thing is to kill the king at the top of the city."

Yelu Sect was willing to remain silent. After a while, he said, "Am I afraid of death!"

Yelu Ren looked at Yelu Xiantong first, but shook his head, really didn't know what to say. Yelu Zongyan actually knew that exchanging the city was the only way to live. But if the great Datong Mansion did not give him any benefits, he always felt unwilling to give it for nothing.

Seeing this, Xiao Molu said carefully: "King, in the past, the Song army attacked the city, and the artillery suppressed the city, cleared the defenders on the wall, and then the ant attached. Dangxiang's city was captured in this way. People who have seen Dangxiang war say that the Song army's artillery is powerful and Dangxiang cannot resist at all. In addition, the big city, it will be captured in two or three days."

Yelu Zongyuan said: "It's so easy to attack, the Song army has been besieging Datong Prefecture for so many days, but it hasn't been captured."

Xiao Molu could only sigh: "These days, the Song army has only bombarded the city walls, and no ants have ever attacked the city. Obviously they have won in Youzhou, and they believe that we have no ability to defend the city and do not want to kill people's lives. If we are in a hurry, it will naturally not be so. Now the Song army has just captured Youzhou and then taken to Datong Prefecture. There are still many cities in this dynasty. Obviously, the Song army wants to use Datong Prefecture as an example, what will happen if Xiancheng is, and what will happen if not Xiancheng."

After hearing this, Yelu Zongyuan was shocked. Only then did he realize that the Song army resolutely refused to give him benefits, which was not just a matter of stinginess. He gave him benefits, should the other generals who sacrificed the city give benefits? As soon as this example was opened, the Song army would not have so much money! Saving their lives is the biggest benefit that the Song army can give. It is impossible to want anything else.

After pondering for a long time, Yelu Zongyan sighed: "What a pity for my life! But more than 10,000 soldiers in the city cannot be buried with them. Today, there is no other way. The three of you came from afar to persuade me, I know your kindness. But you were originally a Khitan minister and could not defend the territory, and finally felt ashamed of your ancestors. For the plan of the soldiers guarding the city and the people in the city, I promised to give the city. However, General Song would agree to me that after breaking the city, you should treat the people well and not kill the soldiers guarding the city indiscriminately."

Yelu Fairy Tong breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, king, we will definitely explain it clearly to the Song army. When the Song army was in Youzhou, it was very good to the people, so how could it hurt people's lives? How to offer the city tomorrow? The king told us, and we will leave the city to tell the Song army later."

Yelu Zong said, "What else can I do if I have the city? I will open the city gate tomorrow morning, and the Song army will enter the city. They have a army of 100,000. Are they still afraid of my more than 10,000 people after entering the city? Alas, I didn't expect this to happen in the end!"

"Okay, okay, that's the best!" Yelu Fairy Tong looked at Yelu Renxian with a smile on his face. "It's not too early, so let's leave the city now. The king prepares in the city, don't open the city gate at that time, and there will be chaos in life."

Yelu Zongyan nodded: "That's it. I'll send someone to bring you down the city."

Looking at the wooden baskets on the top of the city, Wang Kai said to Hebin and Hao Zhi: "You talk about it, will Yelu Sect offer you a gift to the city?"

He Bin said: "It is best to offer it, so you can avoid a fight. If you can't offer it, you will kill the city tomorrow and chop off his head! The Taiwei said it very clearly. It's okay for the Khitan generals to fight from the beginning. If you are defeated and captured, you can not kill them. If you have the advantage of this kind, it's better to kill them early."

Hao Zhi said: "I have been here for a while and I can't tell what the Yelu Sect wishes. However, the three Yelu Fairy Tongs and the other two are back now, and eight out of ten Yelu Sect wishes to offer the city. Otherwise, he would take down the person."

Wang Kai nodded: "Yes, I guess that's the case. Now that I'm sending someone back, I obviously don't want to hold on to you."

Soon, the personal soldiers brought Yelu Xiantong and the other two to salute Wang Kai and others.

Wang Kai returned the gift and asked, "How? Can you think clearly about the wish of Yelu Sect after you have entered the city for three days?"

Yelu Fairy Tong said, "Congratulations to the Grand Marshal, Yelu Sect, for thinking about it, but although they still have many dissatisfactions, they are still willing to offer the city. According to him, it is to avoid many killings when you attack the city. As long as your army agrees, you will not start killing after taking the city, and do not harm the people in the city. The Yelu Sect will open the city gate early tomorrow morning and welcome your army into the city."

Wang Kai smiled and said, "Do you want to go into the city and tell him again?"

Yelu Xiantong shook his head: "That's not the case. Yelu Zong wants to believe in the Grand Marshals, and he will definitely not do anything to regret."

He Bin smiled and said, "That's it, how could we regret it? He said these words just look good. However, if we only have the city and what is Yelu Sect's wish, we will hand it over to the court for disposal."

After saying that, he said to Wang Kai: "This is such a happy event today. Let's go back to the patriarch's tent to drink! The army will enter the city early tomorrow morning!"

In Datong Mansion, Yelu Zongyan commanded his servants to hurriedly pack up his personal belongings. It was nothing more than that all the gold and silver rich men who had been looted in Datong Mansion this year were packed into willow boxes and carefully placed in their own room.

Xiao Molu said: "King, if you want to make careful arrangements for the city tomorrow, you will need to set up your own things. If something happens, it is a big deal. Will someone still rob your own things? It will not be too late to clean up the Song army slowly when they enter the city."

Yelu Zongyan stomped his feet and said, "How foolish are you! Yelu Xiantong and the other two made it clear that after offering the city, I will only keep my life. After the Song army enters the city, they will inevitably plunder the people's property, and they will implicate me if they accidentally. They clean up early. After the Song army enters the city tomorrow, they will explain to their chief generals that this is my thing and the Song army is not allowed to loot. If not, how can I survive after I am captured in Kaifeng Prefecture?"

Xiao Molu couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, and didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, she said: "It's just that the city gate will be opened tomorrow. How to arrange the army? If it's not arranged it earlier, I'm afraid there will be trouble."

Yelu Zong said, "What arrangement is needed? Let's tell them that if Youzhou is defeated, all the troops of this dynasty are lost. Now there are no reinforcements outside Datong Prefecture and no accumulation inside, so they can only surrender. Tomorrow morning, each will organize his own team and put down his swords and guns."

Xiao Molu was stunned for a moment and said, "What if there is a general who is unwilling to surrender?"

Yelu Zong said impatiently: "You go and tell a few generals that the general situation is like this and resistance is useless. After surrender, the Song army will not kill and surrender, and will arrange food for them, so there is no need to panic. If someone insists on not surrender, you just need to arrest the person."

"What if I've been arrested?"

Yelu Zongyuan waved his hand: "If you arrest him and keep him in a lock, what else can you do? What else can the Song army enter the city tomorrow? At this time, the army should not cause trouble, and it is best to be safe and safe. If you don't obey military orders, just arrest him in advance."

Xiao Molu nodded. Seeing that Yelu Zongyuan was all about packing up his own property, he had to say goodbye.

Looking at Xiao Molu's leaving figure, Yelu Zongyuan shook his head: "It's so long-lasting. I have decided to offer the city. How can I do so many things to do? The most important thing now is to pack up the property, otherwise what will you eat when you go to Kaifeng Mansion in the future!"

Yelu Zongyuan was naturally dissatisfied with the fact that he had not asked for benefits from the Song army. Now his property is very precious, so of course he had to spend more time. As for arranging the offer of the city, he had already decided to surrender. The soldiers put down their swords and guns and finished. What should I do to arrange?
