The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 535
"It's finally here!"

Zhao Gou looked at the surrender letter in his hand, and he smiled.Because this is the answer he wanted, Zhao Gou didn't say clearly about what happened in Tanzhou, Shunzhou and other cities, it can be said that he knew all about it.The reason why no troops were sent to attack was also to wait for this answer.

If troops are sent to attack these three states, not only will the Song Army lose, but more importantly, Wugang and others have some prestige in the local area. If there is a real war.I'm afraid that the people in the city will live and die with them. In this way, the people in the city will be implicated innocently.

If he did that, he might be left with eternal infamy. After thinking about it, Zhao Cong decided to adopt the strategy of besieging and not attacking.It seems that no troops have been sent to attack, but in fact it is the heart.If he is the guard of the three states, the city he is guarding is surrounded by the enemy army, and there is no rescue, but the life and death of the people and soldiers are all on him, this mental pressure is stronger than solving it by force many.

It was Zhao Gou's thought of this that he chose to do this. Subduing others without fighting is really the best strategy.

Not long after the letter of surrender from Wuhan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. arrived, the letters of surrender from the other two states also came.It is roughly the same, but there are some differences. WISCO’s letter of surrender also made a request, that is, after the Song army entered the city, they were not allowed to kill innocent people indiscriminately, and they were not allowed to harm the people or soldiers. This was his biggest request.

Zhao Gou agreed to all the requests made by Wugang, and then he asked the messenger to report back, telling them that he had agreed, and reassuring them.

Everyone bowed and nodded in agreement, then turned and left.

"Pass down my order, don't disturb the people at all, and offenders will be punished by military law!" Zhao Gou's passing down his own order is also a kind of restraint.

Everyone bowed and agreed, saying: "No!"

"If this person from Wugang is used by Song Dynasty, he must be a loyal general." Zhao Yougong looked at Wugang's letter of surrender, and admired him very much.

Zhao Gou nodded, he thought so too.With the prestige of WISCO in Tanzhou, it is possible that it might even dominate one side.However, he did not do this, nor did he take credit for his pride, nor did he say any compliments in the surrender letter. Everything was plain and unpretentious, which shows that Wugang is upright and loyal.

Therefore, Zhao Gou also wanted to subdue him and let Wugang serve the Song Dynasty.If he guards Tanzhou, with the military support of Song Dynasty, and the support of Yue Fei, Liu Qi and others, he will not lose easily, nor will he encounter today's situation, and it will be a solid line of defense.

However, Zhao Gou guessed that the matter of conquering WISCO would not be that simple, and the words between the lines showed WISCO's helplessness.Under such huge pressure, WISCO can still be as stable as Mount Tai, and it will not be chaotic in the face of danger. This calmness is already considered good.

Wu Gang already knew Zhao Gou's answer, and then he asked all the soldiers to go down to rest, not even the patrolling soldiers.At this moment, the streets and alleys in the entire city are extremely quiet, not only are there no figures, there is no sound, and some only have the dancing posture of heavy snow.

"Old man, you have been with me for more than ten years!...It's time to rest!..." Wu Gang stroked a sharp sword in his hand in the room, and then wiped it lightly, like his own Like a partner.At this moment, his eyes were a little moist, as if he remembered something from the past.

The next day, Zhao Gou set off for Tanzhou.In addition, the other two states were led by Lu Junyi and Song Jiang to take over.As long as they succeed, let the two of them escort the guards from the two states together.And, let them treat each other with courtesy, without any sarcasm or arrogance.

"Tanzhou Guard General Wu Gang, pay homage to the Generalissimo!" Wu Gang led all the soldiers to kneel outside the city to welcome the arrival of the Song army. Their armors were untied, some weapons were put down, and they knelt in the snow. And the snow still doesn't stop.

Zhao Gou saw that they were all kneeling on the ground, and the white snow on their knees had already melted, soaking their clothes already.Zhao Gou got off his horse in a hurry, then helped Wu Gang up, and got all the soldiers up again, instead of kneeling on the ground.

After receiving Zhao Gou's order, everyone also got up.Then, Zhao Gou ordered all the army to stay outside the city without entering the city, and all the original soldiers also stayed outside the city. Only a dozen people entered the city together with Wu Gang, Deputy General Wang and others. This was also to avoid disturbing the people.

If the entire army enters the city, even if there is no malice, the common people will be frightened.

Wu Gang admired Zhao Gou for treating him like this and loving the people like a son.Until now, he knew that his choice was not wrong.If the people in Tanzhou and other places are all led by Zhao Gou, it may not be a good thing.

"General Wu, since you have surrendered, you are no longer a Khitan general!" Zhao Gou smiled slightly, "If General Wu doesn't dislike it, I want the general to stay in Tanzhou as a guard. I don't know the general's intentions. How about next?"

Wu Gang was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Zhao Gou to trust him so much, he hurriedly bowed and replied: "Thank you, Commander, for your appreciation, but I am a general of Daliao, and he opened the city gate to surrender. Serve, this is an unfaithful and unrighteous person, I want to leave this place and go to Mobei, I wonder if the general agrees?"

"Really don't think about it anymore?" Zhao Gou expected that Wuhan Iron and Steel must have such an idea, and he didn't force it too much. This was his choice.When Wu Gang chose to open the city gate to surrender, Zhao Gou guessed that he was struggling and was already tired.

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, I really feel powerless!" Wu Gang declined again, "It is much better for the people and soldiers in the city to have a Commander-in-Chief. promise."

"But it doesn't matter, as long as Zhao can do it, he will do his best!"

"I would like to ask the commander-in-chief not to embarrass them. If some people are unwilling to submit to the Song Dynasty, please don't blame the commander-in-chief!" Wu Gang did not mention his own request, but asked Zhao Gou to take good care of those who had followed him in the north and south. Bros.

Zhao Gou solemnly agreed, and after Wugang explained everything, he left.

However, Zhao Gou did not let Wu Gang leave in such a calm manner, but instead ordered all the soldiers to gather outside the city to see him off, which was regarded as a kind of respect for him as a guard.Wu Gang looked at his former brothers, and finally couldn't hold back his tears. He didn't know when he would come back after leaving this time.

Maybe he will never come back for the rest of his life, because he doesn't want to live this kind of life anymore, he just wants to return to ordinary life.All the soldiers of the Liao Army shed tears. Before leaving, Wu Gang specifically told everyone to cherish this opportunity, which can also be said to be a return of Zhao Gou's favor.
