"Jesbu, if you are willing to surrender, my Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has said that I am willing to spare your life and give high officials generous salaries!" Liu Mingzhao asked someone who knew the Khorezmo language to shout to him loudly, and then used
Various branches of Turkic languages and Mongolian were shouted again.
Just now, Li Cheng almost led his soldiers to kill them all, but Liu Mingzhao arrived in time to stop them. According to traditional Chinese etiquette, a celebration after a victory must include the presentation of prisoners, and according to the details they sent to the city of Samarkand
The news came back that Jesbu was a high-ranking general in Samarkand. Moreover, Yunxi also wanted to chat with the top leaders of the Tianfang Sect country, so Yunxi wanted to persuade him to surrender. Of course, after the celebration,
, and it’s hard to say what Yunxi will do after finishing talking about what he wants to talk about.
Liu Mingzhao himself was very dissatisfied with this proposal to persuade him to surrender. It is true that in both Eastern and Western cultures, people with high status and people with low status are never treated the same, but all the Western captives who surrendered before were killed, and the Western captives this time
After a defeat in the war, there should be no further eastward invasion within a few decades. What's the point of surrendering to the Ming Dynasty even if they are not killed?
But after listening to the Ming army's persuasion to surrender, Jesbu shouted loudly in Mongolian: "Who are you, the person who is persuading me to surrender? What is your identity?"
Liu Mingzhao was stunned. He had never thought that Jesb would ask such a question, and he subconsciously answered in Mongolian: "I am Liu Mingzhao, the commander of one of the Ming Dynasty's imperial guards."
"How can a commander of the Royal Guards be worthy enough to persuade me to surrender? Let your emperor come!" Jesb shouted again.
Liu Mingzhao was stunned again, not knowing how to answer. When he saw Qin Sen beside him, he asked casually: "Commander Qin, how do you think we should respond?"
"Many ethnic groups do have such taboos. Ordinary people cannot even talk to leaders. In my opinion, it is better to report this matter to His Majesty or the Duke of Wei." Qin Sen has been in the Northeast for a long time and has seen many different ethnic groups. He has some thoughts on this.
understood.
"Is Jesbu trying to buy time?" Liu Mingzhao asked suspiciously.
"At this time, there are only a few hundred people around Jesbu, who can't delay the attack on other Xilu, and there are no Xilu who can come to rescue him. What's the use of delaying time?" Qin Sen asked rhetorically.
"You are right." If an ordinary commander dared to speak to him like this, he would have become angry. As a commander of the Kaminao Guard, he has a high self-esteem and usually regards himself as a second-rank officer.
However, Qin Sen was Qin Song's younger brother, so he did not dare to stab him. He calmly accepted Qin Sen's words and ordered his commanding colleagues to keep an eye on the spot and be careful not to let Li Cheng lead the soldiers to kill Jesbu.
Then he went to report to Yunxi and Xu Huizu.
After a while, Xu Huizu came and shouted to Jesib loudly in Mongolian: "General Jesb, your status is not high enough for me, the Ming Emperor, to personally persuade you to surrender. Now I am here to talk to you. If you have any requirements for surrender,
, you can mention it." Both he and Yunxi felt that Jesbu's words seemed to imply surrender, so they came to persuade him to surrender.
"Only Xu Huizu? I want to attract the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but it seems that I can't do it. But it's worth having the generals of the Ming army." Jesbu muttered softly, and then shouted loudly in Mongolian: "Since you are here
Then I will tell you my surrender conditions. As long as you let me sleep with your wife, I will surrender."
"What?" Xu Huizu thought his Mongolian was not good enough and asked subconsciously.
"As long as you let me sleep with your wife, I will surrender." Jesb repeated.
"It seems that you have no sincerity in surrendering." Xu Huizu's face darkened and he said.
"Why am I not sincere? I have already made my own conditions, but you can't accept them." Jesb said this with a smile, then spit on the ground and said: "You pagans still want to persuade you to surrender.
I'm dreaming! I just called you here to play with you."
"Go ahead, kill them." Xu Huizu had never been insulted like this before and ordered angrily.
Jesib also shouted "Allahu Akbar" and led his bodyguards to rush forward to fight with the Ming army. Although he was still strong and strong, the difference in numbers was too big after all, and he was quickly killed by the Ming army. The man who killed him was
The Ming army was angry that he insulted their commander, and thrust a spear into his eyes and mouth, leaving his whole head bloody.
"Throw his body into the pig pen!" Xu Huizu said with a gloomy face. The soldiers beside him did not dare to say anything, so they agreed and stepped forward to collect Jesbu's body.
Xu Huizu took a moment to wait for a while before returning to the military camp to report the matter to Yunxi, and said: "Your Majesty, I know that it is up to Your Majesty to decide how to dispose of the corpses of generals like Jesbu, and I apologize to Your Majesty. But at that time I was really
I can't bear it."
"Jesbu's character is too low." Yunxi commented: "If he refused to surrender outright and immediately led his guards to fight with the Ming army and died of exhaustion, I also respect him as a man and will follow the ordinary rules of the Ming Dynasty.
He was buried as a general. But before he died, he did such a thing."
"You did a good job. Any man can't bear it after hearing such words. How can I punish him? Then I will take his body out of the pig pen and let the dogs eat it."
Yunxi didn't feel that this was an offense to his authority. On the contrary, if Xu Huizu didn't do this, he would be very scared. A person who can even endure such a thing can only show that his ambition is very lofty or he is cowardly to the extreme.
, Xu Huizu obviously cannot be cowarded to the extreme, and he is already the Duke of the country, and he has made such a great contribution this time, so it is self-evident what his lofty ambitions are.
Just as he was talking, Pubing suddenly ran into the tent and reported to Yunxi: "Your Majesty, Wei Guogong, Tieletai's headquarters has also been captured. Tieletai committed suicide. Most of his troops were killed, and only more than 300 people surrendered. Among them, more than 300 people surrendered.
There was a man who was Tiledai's adjutant, and according to his own words, he was from a noble family in Samarkand."
"Keep them!" Yunxi immediately ordered: "Escort them all to the capital. They will be used when I hold a celebration."
"But you must remember that you don't need to keep them fat and fat, just half hungry and half full every day." For these lower-level Xilu, he planned to secretly execute them after the celebration. At most, they would only be half-starved and half-fed.
If a few people can survive by converting to Taoism or Buddhism, there is no need to be too kind to them.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The soldier agreed, and then said: "Your Majesty, the central army of the Western Captives has also been defeated by the army, and thousands of people have been captured. But there is one man, Duke Liang, who doesn't know how to deal with it. Please tell me, Your Majesty."
