At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 547 Rout
With the sound of a cannon, the Ming army quickly attacked.

Duke Daman saw the other party approaching in an instant, sweating profusely, and shouted: "Where are our people, send a signal!"

The sharp whistle sounded again, but there was still silence in the jungle, only a few birds flew away.

The dust was flying in front of him, and Fan Mingchen took the lead and led the cavalry to the front of the formation.

The Duke of Daman was going crazy, he had agreed to accept the surrender, but unexpectedly ambushed so many soldiers and horses, the orientals don't talk about martial arts!
At this moment, there was finally movement in the jungle.

I saw a small team rushing out with knives and guns, and Alejandro was the leader.

The Duke of Daman was relieved, it turned out that Alejandro was the most loyal to the empire...

Wait!
"Surrender, surrender!"

Alejandro shouted in broken Chinese, then threw the knife in his hand to the ground, squatted down, and held his head in his hands.

With the captain taking the lead, the rest followed suit.

All of a sudden, swords and guns were thrown all over the place.

In order to show sincerity, some people threw away all their clothes and only wore shorts to prove that they did not hide weapons on their bodies.

This is only the first team, there will be a second team, a third team...

All the ambush soldiers scrambled to surrender, as if whoever surrendered late would suffer a big loss.

Duke Daman was stunned, why?

Fan Mingchen led his team to the front of the formation, holding up the musket in his hand, and shouted: "His Royal Highness has an order, disarm and don't kill!"

In fact, he didn't need to say it at all, because all the Ottoman officers and soldiers from Zigat had surrendered.

Even if some people had no intention of descending, seeing the scene in front of them, they did not hesitate anymore and immediately squatted down.

Fighting with the big army, maybe you can survive, but everyone has surrendered, and if you charge forward by yourself, the consequences can be imagined.

Right now, I don't care about being loyal or not, saving my life is the most important thing.

Fan Mingchen ordered his men to go down to gather the surrendered soldiers, and then rode his horse to the Duke of Daman.

Duke Daman's face was ashen, and he didn't even bother to run.

Now that this is the case, where else can I go?

The soldiers who set up an ambush were all elites, and those who surrendered without a fight, those who stayed behind in Zigat...

Forget it, the tide is over.

From today, the Ottoman Empire will completely become history.

Fan Mingchen ordered his men to tie up Duke Daman and bring him to Zhu Qiyu.

"Your Highness, someone caught it!"

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "Good job."

Fan Mingchen saluted and said: "It all depends on His Highness's command."

"Speaking of..."

Zhu Qiyu laughed suddenly, and continued: "This is a gift from the emperor's brother before he left. If you really want to reward meritorious deeds, it should be the emperor's brother who planned the strategy!"

Duke Daman didn't understand Chinese, he watched the two talking, he didn't put himself in the slightest, turned away with displeasure on his face.

If you lose, you lose. However, you Orientals are outsiders after all. How easy is it to completely rule Ottoman?

As long as you beg me, give me another title, even if it's just an earl or baron, I can accept it.

Just when he was distracted, Zhu Qiyu ordered: "Kalai!"

"The subordinate is here."

"Tell him to write a letter to the army staying in Zigat City, if you want to survive, go out of the city and surrender."

Kalai translated truthfully, Duke Daman finally smiled, look, there is still something I need!
If I don't write this letter, even if you attack by force, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be wasted.

That being the case, it is naturally impossible to write this letter to you lightly. I am the dignified Duke, the largest surviving military commander in the Ottoman Empire, don't you want to lose face?
"Tell the Easterners that the Ottomans will not give in easily!"

Calle had no choice but to repeat the original words.

After Zhu Qiyu heard this, he frowned slightly, and said: "Since this person is unwilling to submit, this king will fulfill him, take him away, and behead him for public display!"

The Duke of Daman was still waiting for Carlisle to translate, but he saw two big Han generals stepping forward, grabbed him and walked out.

"Calle, tell me what the Easterners said!"

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Duke Daman was completely shocked.

Things seem to be different from what I imagined...

Carle had no choice but to say: "His Royal Highness King Yi respects your wishes and wants to behead you."

"No, no, that's not what I meant..."

Duke Daman hurriedly yelled, but he didn't intend to let him go, and dragged him outside.

Calle said: "My lord, it was you who said just now that the Ottomans will not give in. His Royal Highness also obeyed your wishes and gave you dignity."

"I don't mean that, I mean, it can be discussed, it can be discussed..."

The Duke of Daman's eyes are full of despair, and the Orientals are too careless. If they want me to surrender, shouldn't they ask more times?

I am the Duke of Ottoman. If you ask me to surrender, I always have to refuse ten or eight times. Finally, I am moved by your sincerity. At the same time, I agree to surrender because of the overall situation and to prevent more people from dying in the war. Isn't it perfect?
When you asked me just now, you didn't say that there was only one chance!

Carle turned around and said, "Report to His Royal Highness, the Duke of Daman said that we can discuss it."

"Is there anything to discuss?"

Zhu Qiyu showed disgust in his eyes, and said: "He is the Duke of Osman, equivalent to the Duke of our Ming Dynasty, and shares weal and woe with the country. Now that Ottoman has been destroyed, shouldn't he die for the country?"

"Yes!"

Callai agreed, then looked at the struggling Duke Daman, and said, "His Royal Highness said, you can die!"

"No, I have something to say, I have something to say!"

Seeing the hysterical appearance of Duke Daman, Zhu Qiyu waved his hands to the two big Han generals.

"This king only gives him one chance, if you have anything to say, hurry up!"

"I have money, I have money!"

Duke Daman knelt on the ground, and he no longer had the haughty attitude of the past.

Because there is only one chance, if you say the wrong thing, it will definitely click.

Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up: "How much money?"

"When I came out of Constantinople, I brought a sum of military expenses, gold and silver, food, and various supplies, enough to feed 20 troops for half a year, and I hid them in the city of Zigat..."

After listening to Kalai's report, Zhu Qiyu thought for a moment, and said: "Your main force has surrendered, Zigat City is self-defeating, and anything in the city, including money, can be taken by myself. It's not yours." chips."

"no no……"

Duke Daman hurriedly explained: "The supplies are all in the city, but I hid the gold and silver, and I hid them in the swamp, where no one else could find them."

After Zhu Qiyu heard this, he scolded: "You damn duke, you even stole the army's salary privately and hid in the swamp, you are not as good as a pig or a dog!"

"I, I always have to leave a way out for myself..."

Duke Daman had a bitter face, like a child who did something wrong.
