From the time the Japanese pirates pulled up the snagging rope to the time when the Jiaxing soldiers knelt down and surrendered to the Japanese pirates, it took no more than five minutes.
Twenty-eight Jiaxing soldiers knelt down and surrendered. There was also a Jiaxing general whose neck was saved, a total of twenty-nine people.
"Now, I want to ask you a few questions. If you answer them honestly, you will survive. If you refuse to cooperate,"
Xu Hai walked up to the Jiaxing soldier who was kneeling in surrender, spoke slowly, and then suddenly drew his sword and slashed at an unlucky Jiaxing soldier.
The sharp Japanese sword slashed across his neck, and his big head rolled down, and blood sprayed all over the surrounding Ming soldiers.
"ah!!!!"
When Xu Hai disagreed, he drew his sword and killed people. The Ming army who knelt down and surrendered was so frightened that they screamed and even those with poor psychological quality peed their pants on the spot.
"If you refuse to cooperate, you will set an example."
Xu Hai put away the Japanese sword and slowly finished what he had not finished just now.
Scared to death!
Butcher, he kills people just to make an example!
Only then did a group of soldiers from Jiaxing understand why Xu Hai killed people, and their fear of Xu Hai reached an unbearable level.
"Now, pull them down, interrogate them separately, and ask them what they are doing out of the city?! How many defenders are there in Jiaxing City, and how are their forces deployed? If their answers are inconsistent, kill them all! Remember, I am talking about all of them.
Kill them all, no one is left! Anyway, catching them is easier than catching pigs!"
Xu Hai waved his hand and ordered his Japanese pirates to pull down all the Jiaxing soldiers, interrogate them separately, and threatened to kill them all if they gave inconsistent answers.
"Hi!"
Suddenly dozens of Japanese pirates came out. Two of them took a Jiaxing soldier and dragged him aside like a dead dog for interrogation.
"Damn it, everyone has surrendered, so don't make any mistakes and confess honestly. If anyone seeks death, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
"That's right, don't seek death. If anyone's answer is inconsistent, they will kill us all! Everyone saw it just now. They are murderous masters and will kill people if they disagree!"
"Everyone must be consistent, don't be smart, just do it honestly, so that you can keep the green hills without having to worry about running out of firewood, so you can survive, don't complain. Think about your wife, children, children, brothers and sisters at home, do it honestly.
Don’t seek death!”
When a group of Jiaxing soldiers were being dragged away, many Jiaxing soldiers were worried that someone would be too smart to answer honestly, and the answers would be inconsistent, causing everyone to be killed by the Japanese pirates. They couldn't help shouting, reminding and warning everyone to confess honestly.
"General, general, please say something and ask everyone to confess honestly. Brothers will listen to you." Someone else shouted to General Jiaxing.
"Confess honestly, and we will leave the green hills without worrying about having firewood!" the Jiaxing general followed suit and shouted loudly.
"Here!"
All Jiaxing soldiers shouted in unison.
Soon, a group of Jiaxing soldiers were separated and pulled aside for interrogation.
The Jiaxing general received special care and was pulled to the side of the road by two Japanese pirates and interrogated by Xu Hai himself.
Xu Hai held the Japanese sword that was still bleeding and slowly stretched it towards the Jiaxing general. As the Japanese sword got closer and closer, the Jiaxing general became more and more nervous and swallowed repeatedly. When the Japanese sword was still thirty centimeters away from him,
, he couldn't help but pee his pants, and knelt on the ground with a "pop" sound, kowtowing repeatedly and begging for mercy, "Your Majesty, have mercy on me, Your Majesty, have mercy on me, I am willing to surrender, I am willing to lead the horse and kick the pedal, and go through fire and water for Your Majesty."
"You're like a bear who wets his pants, but you can go through fire and water for me?!"
Xu Hai twitched the corner of his mouth in disdain, sneered, and patted the Jiaxing general's face with the back of his knife.
"Ahem!" The Jiaxing general blushed with embarrassment.
"Name?" Xu Hai patted the Jiaxing general's face again with the back of his sword and asked coldly.
The knife was cold, and Xu Hai's voice was even colder.
"The name of the surrendered general is Zhao Dezhu, with the courtesy name Zhonghai. He was also known as Zhao Dazhu, nicknamed Zhuzhu, and nicknamed Optimus Prime."
The Jiaxing general was frightened by Xu Hai, especially when the cold Japanese sword slapped him in the face indiscriminately. He was afraid that Xu Hai would chop him down if he disagreed with him, so he quickly named him by his first name, his given name, and his nickname.
, the nicknames were all explained.
When Xu Hai saw this, his disdain on his face became heavier, but he was even happier in his heart. This boneless weakling was just the right person.
"Why did you leave the city overnight?" Xu Hai asked again.
"Back to your Majesty, our Lord, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it was Zhao Chong, the dog magistrate of Jiaxing, who was frightened to death after receiving the news that there were Japanese pirates, no, there were noble troops in the village in the north of Jiaxing Prefecture, and his face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly
We were sent out of the city overnight to ask for reinforcements from Yangcheng Guard, and asked Yangcheng Guard to send troops to assist Jiaxing City in defending your army."
Zhao Dezhu hurriedly called out, and spontaneously stepped into the role, calling Magistrate Zhao a dog officer and the Japanese pirates a noble army.
"How far is Yangcheng Guard from here?" Xu Hai then asked.
"There are still more than thirty miles. The name of the thousand households in Yangcheng Guard is Wang Defa, who is the most greedy for money. The deputy general is named Huang Yougui. He is a family friend of mine and is generous. However, he has a weakness: he is lustful. Yangcheng Guard has five thousand soldiers.
Six hundred people, but this is the number on the surface. In fact, it is only a little more than 3,000. Nearly half of them are old, weak, sick, and disabled. Their weapons and equipment are not very good, and the armor rate is less than 20%."
Like pouring beans, Zhao Dezhu explained everything about the Yangcheng Guards, without Xu Hai having to ask any questions.
Xu Hai nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, how many defenders are there in Jiaxing City, and how are the forces deployed?"
"There are still 2,000 defenders in Jiaxing City, plus 200 assisting guards, for a total of 2,200 people. The north gate has the largest number of troops, with 700 people defending it, and the other three gates, east, west, and south, have an average of 500 people defending."
"As for the general in charge of the defense, if nothing else goes wrong, it should be Zhang who is in charge of the war room. He is the confidant of the Dog Magistrate. However, he is just a scholar who does not understand military affairs. Because he can flatter people and sneak into the camp, he has caught the attention of the Dog Magistrate."
"The ones who will assist in the defense must be General Wang and General Zhao. General Wang is a fat man, he is all fat, he claims to be brave and good at fighting, but in fact he just bullies and bullies the common people, he has no real ability, all his fat is from eating; General Zhao is a thin man
, the reason why he is so thin is because he was squeezed dry by the women who worked as secret prostitutes in Hualou. He claims to be well-informed, but in fact, he only heard what people said when he was working as a secret prostitute in Hualou.
They are all bullies who are afraid of the strong, and they have no real ability."
Zhao Dezhu was as active as ever, and without Xu Hai asking any questions, he sold everything in Jiaxing City.
"Hahahaha, okay, Zhao Dezhu, you are very good. The governor is very satisfied. We need talents like you."
Xu Hai laughed with satisfaction.
Soon, the interrogations of other Japanese pirates were also over. They all met together, and all the Jiaxing soldiers gave the same answer as Zhao Dezhu.
The difference is that due to status, some people know more and some people know less.
