Chapter 819, Voting
After coming to the city wall, Hu Bin saw his daughter-in-law and son at a glance.
"Daddy, Daddy, save us, save us."
When Hu Bin saw his wife and children, his wife and children also saw him, and after seeing their father, the two children immediately shouted for help.
Although Hu Bin's wife didn't speak, the way she looked at Hu Bin already said it all.
"Hey."
After sighing helplessly, Hu Bin said to Rose who was flying in the air: "Dare to ask what the general is called?" ”
Rose replied, "Captain of the Seraphic Legion of the Condor Empire, Rose Holy Light. ”
After hearing that the other party's position was similar to his own, Rose asked, "Dare to ask General Ross if he has full authority?" ”
Rose nodded and said, "If there is a matter of surrender and the treatment of prisoners, I have been authorized by the Condor Emperor to make full decisions."
If you want to get a position in the Condor Empire, then please forgive me for not being in charge. ”
Seeing that Ross looked serious and didn't seem to be lying, Hu Bin said: "General Ross, I am personally very willing to surrender to your army in Kaecheng, but before that, please allow me to discuss it with others first."
After all, Jiayuguan is the western gate of the Hexi Corridor, if I let you in, then the entire Hexi Corridor will no longer be in danger, and the other defenders of the Linhai Empire will have no way to retreat, so I must discuss it with them first. ”
Hu Bin's attitude was very sincere, and after thinking about it for a while, Rose said, "General Hu Bin, right, I can give you three days to discuss with the others."
After three days, if the gates of Jiayuguan have not been opened before noon, then I am sorry, and all the families of the guards of the Hexi Corridor here will be executed.
After our Condor Army breaks through Jiayu Pass, all the tigermen in the Hexi Corridor will be slaughtered. ”
After hearing Rose's naked threat, Hu Bin's eyes suddenly became fierce, but when he saw the longing on the faces of his wife and children under the city wall, the fierce aura immediately disappeared.
After hugging his fist at Ross, Hu Bin said in a deep voice: "Thank you General Ross for being reasonable, I will give you an answer as soon as possible." ”
After finishing speaking, Hu Bin walked down the city wall without looking back, he didn't dare to look at the eyes of his wife and children in the city again, because the more he looked at him, the softer his heart became, and he was worried that he would not be able to help but surrender directly to the city when the time came.
Upon returning to the mansion, Rose immediately instructed his soldiers: "Go and inform the other generals at once, that they should come to me within two days."
Tell them that the Tiger King City has been lost, and everyone's families have fallen into the hands of the Condor Army, and the Condor Army has only given us three days, and if the city is not opened and surrendered, the Condor Army will kill all the family members. ”
"Yes, General." The soldiers were ordered to leave.
Looking at the distant figure of his own soldiers, Hu Bin secretly thought to himself: "Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven, I hope a few of them can see a little more and recognize the reality."
If someone wants to kill their relatives for the Tiger Roar Heavenly Holiday, then don't blame me for being ruthless. ”
On the third day, the last day of the ultimatum given to Hu Bin by Ross, more than a dozen tiger guards stationed in the Hexi Corridor all rushed to Hu Bin's mansion.
In the past two days, Hu Bin has communicated with several colleagues who arrived first, and after the last few people arrived, Hu Bin spoke again: "Generals, some people have heard it, and some people have not heard it, so I repeat it again."
All of you have your family in the hands of the Condor, and I have confirmed it with my own eyes on the city walls.
The Condor demanded that we surrender unconditionally to them or we would kill all of our families, and then massacre the Hexi Corridor after the capture of Jiayu Pass.
Although I am personally loyal to His Majesty Tiger Roaring Heaven, His Majesty has been killed in battle, and Tiger King City has been captured by the enemy.
I know that people are reluctant to accept this reality, but there is nothing we can do about it.
I don't know what all of you think, but I want to save my wife and son, and I can't bear to see them fall under the butcher's knife of the Condor. ”
As soon as Hu Bin's words fell, a tall tiger man with a scar on his face immediately stood up angrily, and he reprimanded loudly: "Hu Bin, because Your Majesty trusts you so much, you actually want to serve the enemy?
Are you worthy of Your Majesty's cultivation of you? Have you forgotten who gave you everything you have today? ”
Seeing that it was the grumpy Tiger Evil, Hu Bin stretched out his hand to signal the other party to be calm, and then explained: "General Tiger Evil, my Tiger Bin can have today, all thanks to the cultivation of His Majesty Tiger Roaring Heaven, and His Majesty's kindness to me, I dare not forget it for a day."
I also want to avenge Your Majesty, but now that the Condor Army is strong, the little army we have left may not even be enough to defend the Hexi Corridor.
It's winter, and the Condor can't take the siege, so we can survive.
But what about when the spring flowers bloom?
At that point, what will we do to fend off the attack of the Condor?
The Junggar Basin was lost, the Tarim Basin also fell into the hands of the Condor Army, and the armies in Wuwei, Baiyin and other regions were all uncertain.
Now that we don't have any reinforcements, what's the point of continuing to resist to the end?
Are you really going to let the brothers in the entire Hexi Corridor bury you? ”
At the end of speaking, Hu Bin's tone suddenly became sharp, if Hu Sha continued to be obsessed, then he was ready to smash the teacup in his hand.
"So you're going to serve the Condor?" Hu Sha was not frightened by Hu Bin.
"Who said I was going to serve the Condor?
I've already said that I'm not afraid of death, but I don't want my wife and children to be poisoned by the Condor because of me.
I just want to rescue my wife and children from the Condor Army, and then take them to a remote mountain village to live in seclusion and live an ordinary life.
I, Hubin, have received the grace of His Majesty, and I am already very sorry for Your Majesty if I can't avenge Your Majesty, and serve the enemies who killed Your Majesty?
I'm sorry, but even if I had a sword and an axe, I wouldn't give in.
You can laugh at me for being greedy for life and death, and ingratitude, but please don't insult my personality.
No matter how ungrateful I am Hubin, I still have this backbone. ”
Hu Bin shot back at Hu Xi very unceremoniously, his eyes were full of determination.
Seeing that Hu Bin's expression didn't seem to be fake, Hu Xi muttered in a low voice: "You still have a conscience." ”
"Okay, two, we are all brothers who once fought side by side, don't hurt the harmony because of this.
My personal suggestion is that we can't let the brothers of the entire Hexi Corridor follow us to death because of our own selfishness.
We can surrender in Kaesong, but we must surrender in Kaesong conditionally.
I don't care what happens to the others?
But these people here are people who have received the favor of His Majesty, so we can surrender, but we must not serve the enemy.
If anyone dares to take the risk of serving the enemy, he will be hunted down by others.
If everyone has no other opinion, then let's vote by a show of hands, and the minority obeys the majority. ”
After seeing that the atmosphere between Hu Bin and Hu Sha had eased a little, a relatively old tiger man got up and made a compromise suggestion.
Except for the Tiger Clan, all the others present did not want to be buried for the Tiger Roar, let alone watch their wives and children being killed by the Condor Army, so the final vote was in favor of Kaesong's surrender.
