Facing the Ming army that was swarming in, Hu Quancai's face turned green.

how so?

How could the Ming Thief have the energy to pull out the reinforcements?

Could it be that Hong Jingluo and Lord Ao failed?

This is impossible.

Lord Ao and Hong Jingluo have countless elite soldiers and generals, how could they be defeated?

This is so incredible.

Hu Quancai roughly estimated that he saw the Ming army's vast appearance, at least tens of thousands of people.

In this battle, they had originally trapped the Hu Ben Army on the mountain, but now they were attacked from front and back.

This is too difficult.

Hu Quancai doesn't think he has the ability to lift the sky. It's not his style to turn the tide. Instead, he is good at picking up bargains.

After evaluating the situation, Hu Quancai felt that this battle could not be won.

The Qing army now is just a firecracker.

"Sir, Governor, let's surrender."

Zhou Peigong said in a deep voice.

At present, the Qing army was blocked from its way, and it was neither going forward nor retreat, and there was no chance to escape. It was to rely on breaking through the siege to deceive oneself.

There may be a glimmer of hope if you surrender.

After all, Hu Quancai was just a defeated general, not a bare general.

As long as you have the strength in your hands, you will have bargaining chips for negotiation.

Hu Quancai was a little hesitant.

In the Qing court, he was the dignified governor of Huguang and a serious chief official in the border area.

What official position can he give him if he surrenders to Yongli of the Ming court?

Wouldn't it be a loss if you were demoted?

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

It is not easy to enjoy the life of eating with bells and beef, and then I want to adapt to the relatively lonely and lonely ones.

What's more, Hu Quancai is very energetic, and if he can't adapt, he will feel uncomfortable.

Seeing Hu Quancai hesitating, Zhou Peigong sighed: "Governor General, you must be in trouble and will suffer the chaos. Surrender is the only choice now. You must not make the wrong choice."

Hu Quancai shook his head with his hands on his back: "Forget it, I wanted to be a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty, but I had no choice but to be sold. This is not what my official wishes."

Zhou Peigong knew Hu Quancai's nature very well, and knew that he was the best at face. He followed his words: "A real man can bend and stretch. In ancient times, King Goujian of Yue lie on firewood and taste gall, and three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu. The Governor can imitate the fact that King Xing of Yue lie on firewood and taste gall."

Zhou Peigong said this to this point, which gave Hu Quancai enough face.

Hu Quancai no longer hesitated and nodded, "Well. Order to surrender."

Hu Quancai had never done anything like surrender before.

But Youdao is familiar with it twice. Hu Quancai is now free of any psychological pressure and does it very smoothly.

The Qing army threw away the blades in their hands and knelt down to beg for surrender.

This scene made Ming Jun stunned.

Why did he surrender suddenly even though he had so many soldiers?

What a bunch of cowardly fouls!

However, the Ming army was naturally happy to see this.

The soldiers were exhausted and were all relying on one breath to hold on.

Why not do it if it can reduce some casualties?

"Come on, tie up all these prisoners."

Zhao Xu immediately ordered.

Li Shitou responded excitedly.

Soon, the soldiers of the Hu Ben Army cooperated with Li Dingguo's troops to tie up all the Qing soldiers.

As for Hu Quancai, Zhou Peigong, Gao Tianjue and others, they were tied up and brought to Zhu Youlang.

"The criminal Hu Quancai pays homage to Your Majesty."

Hu Quancai's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he looked as if he was right.

Zhu Youlang was so embarrassed for him.

"The Hong thief has retreated. How many defenders are there in Changsha City?"

Zhu Youlang asked coldly.

"Your Majesty, there are only five thousand old and weak soldiers..."

Hu Quancai said carefully: "Your Majesty can take the criminals to come, but the criminals can order people to open the city gate directly."

Zhu Youlang thought to himself that Hu Quancai had some effect, and it seemed that he could save his life for several days.

"Lead the way!"

Zhu Youlang said aloud.

...

...

When the dignified Governor Huguang appeared in front of Changsha City with his upper body naked, the defenders in the city were stunned.

Oh my God, even the Governor was captured, and this battle must have been defeated.

The Governor ordered them to open the city gate, and the defenders did it without any hesitation.

Even the elite soldiers and the Eight Banners Army could not do anything to the Ming army. How could it be possible with these five thousand remaining troops?

Surrender earlier may lead to a life of life.

The city gate was wide open, and Zhu Youlang sent people to the city to receive it.

According to past experience, only by controlling the entire city gate can the entire city be considered relatively stable.

Zhu Youlang is worried about fraud and is naturally cautious in everything, and he is not in a hurry anyway.

After about half an hour, the Ming army controlled the important food in the city.

Zhu Youlang entered the city surrounded by a large army.

After entering the city, Zhu Youlang discovered that Changsha City really only had 5,000 troops.

Moreover, these five thousand Qing soldiers looked like they were not very capable of fighting.

It seems that Hu Quancai didn't lie to him.

What about the defeated Hong Chengchou? Where did he go back to Changsha?

Zhu Youlang is indeed very confused.

Hong Chengchou came to Changsha at any cost, and logically he would not leave easily.

Something must have happened in the Qing army that caused Hong Chengchou to leave in a hurry.

What exactly is going on?

Zhu Youlang really couldn't think of it.

However, the most urgent task at the moment is to appease the people in the city.

As for these prisoners, they could only be dispersed and worked as coolies first.

The Ming army did not short of people, and even if they were short of people, they would not use these scums.

Zhu Youlang has always been in a state of being better than being insignificant, and will never let rat shit be ruined.

As for Hu Quancai, Zhou Peigong, Gao Tianjue and some Qing army generals Zhu Youlang did not intend to stay.

Such people are extremely guilty and unworthy of living in this world. Execution of them can instead comfort the dead soldiers in heaven.

After the imperial edict was issued, Hu Quancai and others were stunned.

"Your Majesty, I want to see your Majesty!"

Facing the aggressive Ming soldiers, Hu Quancai shouted loudly.

"How could Your Majesty cross the river and destroy the bridge? If I hadn't given Changsha, how could the Ming army enter the city so easily!"

"Your Majesty has never promised not to kill you, so how can you say that you will be destroyed by crossing the river?"

The Ming army soldier sneered: "You are blinded by lard and think that you can survive even if you are guilty."
