Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 646 I starved to death, I jumped off the top of the city, and I will never surrender (second more)
For people like Huang Taiji, Zu Dashou was very clear in his heart, he wrote one thing in the letter, but planned another in his heart.

He always believed that among the barbaric and cunning group of the Jurchen Tartars, the person who could become the Great Khan was not a kind person.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to play with the powerful banner owners under his command, let alone let them fight for him.

"I really love the general. It was God who reconciled the two of us, so I gladly sent an envoy to write a letter."

The corner of Zu Dashou's mouth twitched, and he continued to look down.

"I grew up on the seashore, and I only know how to raise troops. I am not proficient in educating the people and raising soldiers, and I don't know the dangers of mountains and rivers. I can only do it myself. Commanding and educating soldiers, please general Let it go.

It is my original intention to wish for prosperity together in the future. I have sent Yin Zhu Yanzhi to tell him in front of the general in his spare time the idea of ​​our joint plan.

If the general does not believe it, you can ask General Yinzhu in detail, and if you believe what I say, please reply quickly.

The general should judge it arbitrarily, but fortunately don't listen to other people's words! "

Zu Dashou put down the letter in his hand, and didn't believe a word written by Huang Taiji.

The truth is that before I took it down, I shouted at Xiao Tiantian every day, and I promised you all kinds of things when I opened my mouth.

After winning, it was designated as Mrs. Niu's treatment.

Huang Taiji not only wrote the letter himself, but also ordered the surrendered Ming army general Zhang Hongmo and more than [-] people to write letters to Zu Dashou, urging him to surrender early, telling him in disguise that there is no one in Ming Dynasty who can save you.

Zu Dashou led all the soldiers out of the city to meet the envoys who persuaded him to surrender. In order to avoid Zu Dashou, Huang Taiji was as careless as He Jinchao, and the envoys he sent were all Ming army generals.

He shouted loudly: "Even if my ancestor died of hunger, died in the city, and jumped from the top of the city, he would never surrender!"

This roar made Da Ming Jiang Jiang's face extremely colorful.

Most of them have a heart of shame, first there is Zhang Chun who does not kneel on his own, and then Zu Dashou publicly expresses his determination.

What's more, the defeat in this battle is neither their responsibility nor Zu Dashou's. It's all due to the cowardly governor of Liaodong, Qiu Hejia, and Wu Xiang and Song Wei, who had already escaped first, leaving their hard-working people on the battlefield .

Qiu Hejia didn't know what to do, and the whole army had to obey him, so that the whole army was wiped out.

This is the complicated mood of the generals at this time.

The reason why Zu Dashou was unwilling to surrender was because he had a great worry in his heart.

That is, the high-ranking officials of the Houjin Dynasty hated the Han people extremely. Even if they surrendered, they would be treated like pigs and dogs, and they would kill them at will.

His life is not guaranteed, he would rather die in battle than be killed after surrendering, and die in humiliation.

Zu Zerun, the son of Zu Dashou, secretly wrote a letter and shot an arrow into Houjin's camp, saying that all the generals wanted to surrender, but they were afraid of being killed after surrendering.

After Huang Taiji learned about it, he wrote back immediately to explain that it was indeed true that the Dajin army killed people in Liaodong in the past. Looking back at this time, he also felt very regretful.

But now it is up to him to decide, and he will never kill anyone indiscriminately.

As for Erbeile Amin's massacre of Han officials and people in Yongping last year, it was entirely his own crime.

It has nothing to do with my Daikin decision-makers. Now I have put him under house arrest and punished him to ensure that he will never get out in this life.

Finally, Huang Taiji also expressed his willingness to work with General Zu and other generals.

After Zu Dashou read the letter, he snorted and let him speak without surrendering or answering his letter.

A few days later, Wang Shilong, a general of Zu Dashou's department, surrendered across the city, and the officers and soldiers in the city lost their morale.

But the Ming army in the city was afraid of the Houjin massacre and dared not surrender.

These people have been fighting the post-Jin army outside the pass for a long time, so they naturally know what it looks like when they kill the Han people.

Later, the Jin army was more vicious in killing the Jurchens of their own tribe, let alone foreign tribesmen.

Wang Shilong informed Huang Taiji of the news in Dalinghe City, saying that all the [-] shi of grain stored in the city had been eaten up, many merchants and handymen died, the survivors ate human flesh, and all horses died.

Huang Taiji nodded in satisfaction when he heard the words, he felt more and more that Zu Dashou would not be able to last for two days.

Two days later, Zu Dashou escaped from the city with Zhang Jifu carrying human flesh in his arms again, saying that the city was full of food. In the past, the laborers were killed first to eat, but now they killed all the soldiers in the battalion. , two liters.

Killing each other, and the weak being eaten by the strong, Zu Dashou has already reached the end of the mountain, an irreversible desperate situation.

Hearing the news, Huang Taiji showed a satisfied smile. He felt that he was sure of winning, so he stepped up his psychological battle and specially sent Jiang Xin, a general who had a relationship with Zu Dashou, to persuade him.

Zu Dashou thought for a long time and sent guerrilla general Han Dong to follow Jiang Xin to the Houjin camp to negotiate. After Han Dong came back, he told what he saw and said in the enemy camp, and he decided to surrender.

To show his sincerity, Zu Dashou sent his son Zu Kefa to the Houjin camp as a hostage in order to gain the trust of Huang Taiji, and the two sides had frequent exchanges.

After Zu Dashou offered to surrender, he was allowed to return to Jinzhou and try to move the family to negotiate on the basis of conditions.

The two sides discussed repeatedly, and Zu Dashou also discussed with Lieutenant General He Kegang.

In the end, he sent someone to notify Huang Taiji, saying that he had "decided to surrender" and planned to lead his entourage into Jinzhou and wait for an opportunity to dedicate the city after he surrendered.

All the lieutenants, generals, guerrillas, guards, and capitals in Dalinghe City conspired with Zu Dashou to surrender, only the lieutenant He Kegang refused.

Zu Dashou ordered him to be arrested, dragged out of the city, and beheaded in front of Houjin and other Baylors.

Because Huang Taiji knew very well that Zu Dashou was cunning, and he didn't want to be a target for them to kill before they died.

But the smooth development of things is obviously because Huang Taiji thought too much.

Lieutenant General He Kegang faced Huang Taiji's signal to persuade his subordinates to surrender, his expression remained unchanged, and he died with a smile on his face throughout the whole process without saying a word.

This brave general who was born and died for the Ming court finally died at the hands of his superior.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Hongmo and other surrendered generals all recalled that Zu Dashou said in front of everyone that he would rather die than surrender, which made everyone extremely ashamed.

But now they found that what Zu Dashou did was even more ruthless, using the heads of his trusted subordinates as votes.

The process of this person's surrender is even more excessive!
After He Kegang was executed, Zu Dashou dispatched four lieutenants and two guerrillas to the Houjin Camp to represent him and 39 generals under his command to make an oath with many Baylors of Huang Taiji.

"We are wholeheartedly obedient. If we go against our hearts and break our alliance, the world will learn from it, and we will suffer disaster and die under the sword and arrow."

Seeing that Zu Dashou was so sincere, Huang Taiji swore an oath with many Baylors in order to restrain his subordinates.

"Every soldier who surrenders this time is like seducing and killing, and after obtaining his household registration, he may separate his wife and disperse his property, and heaven and earth will condemn him!"

After the oath of the two parties, at night, Zu Dashou went to the Houjin camp to meet Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji and his grand etiquette reception ordered many Baylors to go out of the camp to greet him. He personally greeted him outside the tent, and refused to kneel down on the birthday of Zu Dashou. tent.
