Chapter 230: True and False Surrender

In less than a quarter of an hour, the major's guess was verified. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeใ€‚ info

A cavalryman came out from the opposite side, wearing no armor or carrying any weapons, and with his hands raised, he walked from the flank to the vicinity of the Xuan army's position.

"I'm here to negotiate." The meaning expressed by this cavalryman's pure Chinese did not make the soldiers who were on guard here relax their vigilance, and the two of them held their rifles, and under the cover of their comrades behind, they slowly approached the Jurchen cavalry on the left and right.

"Come down."

"I'm here to negotiate, I'm a messenger, you know? Emissary. โ€

The sergeant on the left aimed his rifle at the opponent's chest and shouted, "Don't be verbose, do what I say." โ€

After the cavalry dismounted, the sergeant said, "Brother, go up and search." โ€

"Yes." The first-class soldier, who was called the eldest brother, carried his rifle on his back, and after going up, he searched the opponent's whole body inside and out, up and down, according to the body search action in the capture fist taught by the instructors of the military training department in the army, and finally took the knife from the opponent's waist.

The Jurchens looked a little excited and shouted, "It's handed down from my family, you can't take it." โ€

The sergeant slammed his bayonet in front of the Jurchens and shouted, "Shut up, if you really came to negotiate, I will return it to you after the matter is over, now, be honest with me." โ€

With that, he took the Jurchen to a place at least 100 meters away from the third trench being dug and placed him down.

"You wait here, I'll report." The sergeant said that, and then in front of the Jurchens, he commanded the eldest brother, "If he dares to inquire about the military, kill him, if he runs around, kill him, if he dares to ask questions,"

The eldest brother nodded firmly and said, "Kill him." โ€

"That's right, I'll leave it to you, take care of him, I'll report first."

The Jurchens were frightened by the series of "kill him" by the two soldiers in front of them, and sat there obediently not daring to move, the sergeant gave him a cold look, turned and walked towards the hill in front.

After a while, the platoon commander of the alert platoon came over and asked the Jurchens, "In what capacity are you negotiating?" โ€

"I want to see the highest-ranking lord here. I'm not going to tell you. โ€

These Jurchens fought with the Xuan army for several months, but because they had not captured prisoners, nor had they effectively sent spies to infiltrate the Xuan army, they were not very clear about the military system of the Xuan army, and they could not understand the meaning of the rank on the platoon commander's collar badge.

The guard platoon commander was not angry, and said with a smile, "I must at least know the level you represent before I can judge whether you are worthy of being received by the commander." โ€

The Jurchens hesitated for a moment, feeling that what the other party said was reasonable, if a person who hid his identity came to him with empty mouths and white teeth, his minions would not let the other party enter the door.

But the other party didn't speak directly, but asked in a low voice, "Please step back and go, my identity is relatively special, and I can't let too many people know." โ€

Seeing the other party say this, the platoon commander knew that things were more important nine times out of ten, and it was nothing to let the soldiers push them away, if the person in front of him dared to hold himself hostage, he gently stroked the Tiger Ben Medal in his pocket with his hand, and the platoon commander's heart was full of confidence.

"Listen to my command, turn back and be on guard 20 paces away."

"Yes."

It was only after everyone had withdrawn 20 steps that the Jurchens slowly spoke and said something that stunned the platoon commander of the second lieutenant of the tiger dragon.

"I am Borgu with the red flag, and I am Niu Lu Ezhen in the official position of Houjin, and now I represent a total of more than 1,400 red flag cavalry in the opposite army, and I have come to negotiate the matter of surrendering."

The second lieutenant platoon commander knew that the matter was important, and took a deep look at this man named Borgu, and ordered, "Watch this place, and no one is allowed to approach." Then he immediately turned around and ran towards the forward command of the mobile unit.

"More than 1,400 cavalrymen with red flags? Did you hear it right? When the major heard the report, he was also a little dumbfounded.

The second lieutenant platoon commander said firmly, "Absolutely, that's what he said." โ€

The major's heart set off a storm, "Just now I was thinking that the more than 300 Jurchen cavalry in front of me were likely to defect, and a guy came here and said that he would take 1400 Jurchen cavalry to surrender, and the development of this matter was really unexpected." โ€

By this time, the major had completely lost the idea of "resolutely not wanting this kind of runaway soldier" just now, and the 300 cavalry who wanted to escape could not be wanted, but the 1400 cavalry who were sent to his mouth could not be avoided.

Having made up his mind, the major said with a firm look in his eyes, "Bring him to my command post." โ€

"Command post? Will it be..." The deputy next to him said hesitantly.

"Yes, it's at the command post, what, what do you think the other side will see? Divulging some secrets? โ€

"Yes, that's what I'm worried about."

The major's gaze swept around and looked at the staff officers in the command post, "Do you all think so?" โ€

Most of the staff officers nodded yes.

The major smiled and asked, "Do you think that a person who has never been to the martial arts hall can understand the map we drawn?" โ€

A staff officer said categorically, "Of course it is impossible, the drawing of this map requires at least two years of hard work and study to be qualified, and if you just look at it, no one will explain it, and it is impossible for an old officer who lived under slavery to understand the meaning of the contour lines and various patterns." โ€

"That's not the end, he can't read the map, the information is written in ciphers, we didn't bring a sand table on a long-distance march, if he is a spy, even if he is allowed to look at it openly, what can he see?

If he really came to negotiate and surrender, then letting him come to the headquarters can be regarded as a kind of sincerity on our part, which can make him more assured in negotiations. โ€

โ€œยทยทยทยทยทยทโ€

Seeing that he had convinced his deputies and staff officers, the major smiled and asked one of the staff officers to follow the guard platoon commander to invite people to the command post.

When the two of them went out, the major said to the people in the command post with a solemn face, "According to intelligence, the enemy army in the middle road only has more than 200 Jurchen cavalry in total.

If what the people said is true, and there are more than 1,400 Jurchens who are willing to surrender, then we have basically won this way.

Without the pressure of the Jurchen cavalry, what kind of goods those servant troops are, everyone knows that as long as they meet the main forces behind, our army can solve the battle with a charge. When the time comes, our army will be free to clean up the enemy's right flank.

Therefore, this negotiation is of great significance to the entire war situation, everyone must be cautious in their words and deeds, and I hope that through this negotiation, the matter of the surrender of this group of Jurchen cavalry can be determined. โ€

After finishing speaking, the young commander breathed a sigh of relief, "Of course, all this is based on the fact that the enemy really wants to surrender, order the whole army to prepare, if the enemy pretends to surrender and wants to engage in a conspiracy, give me a hard beating, don't be afraid of wasting ammunition, for the decisive battle, the logistics department in Suchuan and Anzhou, enough ammunition to be prepared for the whole army to fight dozens of bases." โ€
