Chapter 140 Surrender?
Chapter 140 Surrender?
"Prime Minister, this musketeer is really powerful. You don't know that since the siege of the city this month, the musketeer commanded by Lin has been suppressing the enemies on the city wall and dare not show their faces."
Zhang Liao said to Cao Cao: "Among Commander Lin's Musketeers, there are some sharpshooters who can accurately shoot and kill enemies on the city wall from a hundred paces away. After a month, these sharpshooters have shot and killed hundreds of enemies. Heavy armor can't stop bullet damage."
"Really, this is really powerful." Hearing Zhang Liao's words, Cao Cao was not only a little moved.
At the same time, he couldn't help shrinking his neck when he thought that wearing heavy armor would not be able to stop shooting from a hundred paces away. For the first time, the flintlock gave him a feeling of insecurity.
Cao Cao thought, if a sharpshooter shot him from a distance, would he be able to avoid being shot?
At this moment, Cao Cao secretly decided in his heart that he must completely hold the flintlock in his own hands, no matter what means he uses.
A few years ago, Zhang Qingfeng made Cao Cao some flintlock guns with rifling and special bullets, but Cao Cao didn't pay much attention to this thing, and just distributed these guns to his guards as an offensive weapon.
As his escort, the first task was to protect him, and he had never been on the battlefield at all, so the flintlock gun had never exerted its power with him.
It wasn't until the war broke out between Youzhou and Gongsun Kang in Liaodong that Cao Cao clearly realized the horror of the flintlock.
Although flintlock guns and bows and arrows are both long-range weapons, and it seems that the firing frequency of bows and arrows is many times higher than that of flintlock guns, bows and arrows can be defended as long as they have wooden shields and armor, while flintlock gun bullets do not have too much There are many ways to defend, or the cost of defense is very high.
And if the flintlock army is equipped with some artillery, it will be useless even if the shield car comes.
More importantly, equipping a flintlock gun does not require carrying heavy arrows, just some gunpowder and bullets, and the load is much smaller than that of an archer.
The only disadvantage of the flintlock is that the manufacturing cost is too high. The cost of making one flintlock is enough to make a dozen bows and crossbows.
Tangyi City.
This is not a very large city, but at this time, there are more than 6 people in the city.
On the top of the city of Tangyi, no one can be seen, but if an enemy attacks the city wall, the soldiers defending the city will rush out to drive the enemy off the wall.
"Third, how long do you think we can last?"
On the city wall, two soldiers were crouching behind a wall, and one soldier asked the other in a low voice.
"I don't know, but I feel like I won't be able to hold on for long. There is no food in the city. I heard that except for the guards, everyone else can only eat half full." The soldier called the third child whispered Said.
"If you want me to say, it's better to surrender. Anyway, we can't fight. If this continues, we will starve to death in less than half a month." The soldier on the third child said.
"Don't talk nonsense, if the captain hears it, we will be miserable."
The soldier named Lao San said: "If you don't surrender, you will die. If you surrender, we will die too. Didn't you listen to the captain? Cao Cao's men eat people's hearts, and Cao Cao eats more than a dozen people's hearts for a meal. If we Can you survive if you surrender, and if you don’t surrender, you can kill one to get back the money, and kill two to earn money.”
"Eating people's hearts? How can you believe this? It must be because the higher ups are afraid of us surrendering and lying to us."
The soldier next to the third child said: "The adults above just want us to work for them. They don't care about our lives at all. There is no benefit to us if we win, and we may die if we lose. I became a soldier to eat food. Now the food I don’t even have to eat, and I’ll give you a fart.”
After a pause, he continued: "If Cao's army attacks the city, we'll pretend to fight and run away if we can't. You can't lose your life in vain, you know? If you die, the higher authorities won't give you any compensation. When the time comes, your wife You will still run away with others, and your son will lose you as a real father, it is miserable to think about it."
After hearing this, the soldier named Laosan thought for a moment, then nodded solemnly and said, "I understand, I won't be a fool."
At this time in Tangyi City, many people had the same idea as these two soldiers.
Although the common people in ancient times had no culture and knowledge, they were not stupid.
If Sun Quan had even a glimmer of hope, they wouldn't lose their fighting spirit so quickly.
Although many generals in the city were publicizing Cao Jun's ferocity, such as Cao Jun eating people's hearts, and Cao Jun would slaughter the city if he broke the city, but no one would believe it.
Many people believe that it is only a matter of time before Cao Cao's soldiers and horses break through Tangyi City.
At the beginning, many people desperately resisted several waves of Zhang Liao's soldiers attacking the city, but later, after Zhang Liao chose to surround rather than attack, the morale in Tangyi City became lower and lower.
"My lord, it's not good to continue to delay like this. We must find a way to break out of the city and return to the south bank of the Yangtze River."
In a relatively luxurious mansion in Tangyi City, Sun Quan convened countless civil and military officials to discuss matters.
"How to break through? Without a boat, even if you break out, you can only be chased and beaten by Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses." Someone retorted.
In the meeting hall at this time, many people kept their heads down and did not speak. Many of them had already seen the situation clearly. In the current situation, unless they went out of the city to defeat Zhang Liao's army, they could only surrender.
Defeat Zhang Liao's army?Just think of that terrifying weapon that can make a loud noise and everyone loses their will to fight.
Moreover, with the arrival of the army led by Xia Houyuan, the enemy's strength has more than doubled, and the hope of winning has basically been shattered.
As for surrender, although many people have this thought, but no one dared to say it.
With Sun Quan's temper, if someone dared to say surrender, his head might be dragged down by the guards and chopped off immediately.
Many people are thinking that instead of discussing how to deal with the next situation, it is better to stay there quietly and don't say or do anything.
"I don't know if any of you have any good ideas?" Sun Quan sat at the head and asked the group of civil and military officers below.
His voice is a little hoarse, giving people a feeling of loneliness.
Hearing Sun Quan's question, everyone lowered their heads, if they had a way.Not even saying it now.
"I heard that Prime Minister Cao has arrived." Sun Quan said calmly to everyone.
Hearing this, there was a commotion below, but the commotion only lasted for a moment and then returned to calm.
"Surrender, I am ready to surrender to Cao Mengde." Sun Quan said lightly to everyone.
Hearing this, finally, the entire conference hall became commotion.
"My lord, you can't..."
"My lord, don't surrender. We went out of the city to fight Cao Cao."
"My lord..."
When Sun Quan said to surrender, countless people stood up and persuaded him immediately, but it was hard to tell whether they were sincere or false from their tone of voice.
