In order to restrain the hot air balloons of the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty, people escorted by soldiers could be vaguely seen on the top of the city.

It is impossible to know whether it is a real citizen or a soldier who pretends to be a slander.

But the general manager of the Weichu Mansion should have been forced to use this method because he was forced to do nothing.

The Song Dynasty had no reason to pity the people in Dali, but in Shanchan Mansion, the Song army did not harass and poison the people. The signals released by this made the Wei Chu general manager take luck. Moreover, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty valued the people, which was already well known to everyone.

Without such a method, they could not stop the Song army's grenade launcher and hot air balloon. Because there were new weapons in the Song army that restrained hot air balloons.

Zhang Hongwei and Liu Zhuwen stood under the city, each holding a telescope to look at the top of the city.

In the vague fire, they also vaguely saw the people.

Zhang Hongwei sneered: "The chief manager of the Weichu Mansion is really anxious and he actually used the people in their city to make the flesh and blood city wall."

Liu Zhuwen chuckled, "But we have to admit that his method is indeed very effective, isn't it?"

"well……"

Zhang Hongwei sighed, "If the emperor does not strictly order and does not harm the people, perhaps the few imperial guards in our Zhennan Military Region alone will be enough to pacify Dali."

"The Emperor is far-sighted."

Liu Zhuwen's eyes showed admiration, "It is easy to lose the hearts of the people, but it is difficult to win the hearts of the people. If we act like the Yuan army in our Song Dynasty, perhaps in decades, we will not be able to truly make the people in Dali recognize the court. In the end, if we have gained the truth, there are many helps, and there are few helps, and civil rebels will emerge one after another, just like those of our Song Dynasty's rebels, we will continue to raise troops to resist the Yuan Dynasty. If we do not disturb the people or harm the people, we can greatly reduce the hatred of the people in Dali for the Song Dynasty. In the future, if the Dali army is defeated, the emperor will supplement various pacification policies, Dali will truly become the territory of our Song Dynasty in a very short time. The people of Dali will also become our Song Dynasty."

Zhang Hongwei was slightly stunned, and then laughed, "You scholars know a lot."

But then he frowned again, "But so, how can we take down this Weichu Mansion?"

His face was not relaxed, but on the contrary, he was very solemn. "When we come to Weichu Mansion, Dali Kingdom may have received the news. There is not much time left for us."

No matter how confident he is, he will not feel that he and Liu Zhuwen will be able to defeat the Dali imperial guards in the Weichu Prefecture and the Dali capital in less than 20,000 imperial guards.

Not to mention that there are tens of thousands of imperial guards in the Weichu Mansion, the imperial guards in the Dali capital have more than one hundred thousand.

Liu Zhuwen shook the fan gently, but turned around and said to the messenger: "Go and release all the surrendered soldiers. Let them go to the city to cause trouble."

The messenger left without asking much questions.

Zhang Hongwei showed a deep puzzled look on his face, "Captain Liu, what do you mean? How could these surrendered soldiers really help us?"

They captured Xiushan County and the surrendered soldiers of Shanchan Prefecture only took a few days. Although they kept lobbying for the past few days, it was obvious that they could not really surrender.

After all, this is in Dali, not in the territory of the Song Dynasty. Moreover, Dali is still in a profound foundation and does not show any sign of being destroyed.

No matter which general of Dali was, it would be impossible for him to surrender to the Song Dynasty so easily.

Liu Zhuwen chuckled, "Captain Zhang, do you think these surrendered soldiers can't really surrender to our dynasty, but do those people on the city think so?"

Zhang Hongwei's eyes fell toward the city again, and he had not spoken for a long time.

Liu Zhuwen said again: "These surrendered soldiers have surrendered and cannot be trusted so much anymore. Following our army to work hard and run around, our army will let them go. They are afraid of how to cooperate with the defenders of the Weichu Mansion to block us after entering the city to avenge the defeat. And with this mentality, if those people on the top of the city do not trust them and do not let them enter the city, what do you think they will think?"

Zhang Hongwei pondered slightly and said, "Of course I was a big disappointment. It might even be possible that I would actually surrender to our army."

Then he couldn't help but frown, "But what if the people on the top of the city let them into the city?"

“That’s better.”

Liu Zhuwen said: "It is impossible for them to fully believe that more than 10,000 surrendered soldiers entered the city, and they will inevitably be suspicious. If we interfere in this, it will be difficult for us to stop being confused."

Zhang Hongwei was lost again, and then murmured, "Fortunately, Chief Liu, you are from our Song Dynasty."

Liu Zhuwen laughed and refused to comment.

Tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers seized in the army broke away from the army in such night and ran towards the gate of Weichu Mansion.

They had no weapons in their hands, but their armor was not stripped off.

Even though he was still a little far from the city gate, some people in the army were shouting: "We are Shanchan Mansion and Xiushan Army, quickly let us enter the city."

This made the soldiers of the Weichu Mansion who were planning to shoot arrows on the city wall and throw thunder were slightly stunned.

An old man in an official robe stood at the top of the city wall with his eyes slightly condensed.

This old man looks afraid that he is already in his sixties or seventies, with a slightly white hair, but his aura is very strong and he will be powerful without anger.

Such people are often in high positions.

And this person is Xing Yuande, the head of Weichu Mansion.

Xing Yuande was also a well-off Dali official. Although Dali had eight prefectures and four counties, its status was slightly higher than that of the county. Xing Yuande's status in the Dali court was slightly better than that of Zhao Liangcai. Only Jiang Kui and others could compare with him.

He looked down at the city, and a general wearing silver armor came over and reported, "Sir, will we let them get closer to the city?"

Xing Yuande just said: "Let's talk about it when they really get closer."

After more than ten thousand surrendered soldiers rushed to the city gate, he took a torch from the guards next to him and threw it into the city.

The torch light shone in the range, and all the surrendered soldiers were without weapons, looking at the city wall with anticipation.

"General Ge!"

The general next to Xing Yuande exclaimed in a low voice, "Master General, they are really soldiers of Xiushan Army. General Ge has met several times."

The generals who suffered the surrendered stroke stood at the forefront, and it was not surprising that they would understand and see acquaintances.

The General Ge in his mouth was the commander of the Xiushan Army. He was also considered a great figure in the Dali Army.

There is no doubt about the status of the surrendered soldiers.

But Xing Yuande was silent.

He was indeed worried.

Although it is unlikely that these surrendered soldiers will truly surrender the Song Dynasty in a short period of time, who can say this accurately?

And if they had not surrendered, how could the Song army let them into the city so easily?

Isn’t this for nothing to make their Weichu Mansion stronger?

The general beside him bowed and asked for instructions: "Sir, let's put them into the city quickly!"

"What if they had surrendered to the Song Dynasty?" Xing Yuande's voice was a little deep.

The burly general frowned and said, "It's unlikely that the Song army is only 20,000. Would they not know how to choose?"

Xing Yuande was silent again.

Someone under the city shouted again: "Why don't you let me go into the city?"

Someone had a slightly changed color during the stroke of the surrender. Especially those generals had a complex look in their eyes.

Of course they knew why the cottage on the top of the city was so hesitant. At this time, the disappointment and anger in their hearts were so surging that they could not suppress them.

They fought bloody battles for the country and finally surrendered. They were still full of passion, but in the end, they were suspicious of their own robes.

But at this time, no one thought deeply about Liu Zhuwen's deep intention.

When Liu Zhuwen asked them to let them go, he only said that they would go to the city to cause trouble, and they would cooperate with each other inside and outside. At this time, these surrendered generals and soldiers were still sneering in their hearts that Liu Zhuwen was really naive.

In the past few days, the lobbyists of the Song Dynasty were just telling them how the emperor of the Song Dynasty was benevolent and righteous, and how rich the Song Dynasty was. They had not seen it with their own eyes, so how could they really believe it?

Furthermore, I truly believe that their home is in Dali and their roots are in Dali, so how can they easily surrender?

After the Song Dynasty imperial guards captured Xiushan County and abandoned them, anyone could tell that they were here to fight Qiufeng. Who would be willing to follow the Song Dynasty imperial guards back to the territory of Song State?

The shout just now seemed to be filled with a little anger.

Xing Yuande finally let go and said to the general next to him: "Open the city gate and let them enter the city!"

However, he did not forget to instruct, "After they enter the city, they will be taken to the military camp for strict supervision, and no one will be allowed to leave the military camp!"

"yes!"

The general bowed his hand and shouted: "Open the city gate!"

With a creaking sound, the east gate of Weichu Mansion gradually opened.

In the night, the suspension bridge on the moat was also lowered. Dozens of light riders rushed out of the corridor with torches.
