Batumi waved his hand to the back and said, "Get twenty grenade launchers up."

A personal soldier conveyed his orders later.

Soon a grenade launcher was coming up with a hand carrying a grenade launcher in the military formation.

Batumi pointed to several places at the city entrance and said, "Optimize the grenade launcher at those places and wait for the order!"

"yes!"

The grenade launchers took the order and hurriedly ran to the side.

When the magistrate of Zhuyang County on the top of the city saw this scene, he looked even more anxious.

If reinforcements don't come again, the Song army will attack the city.

He was also hesitant at this moment, knowing that he could not stop it, and he couldn't help but feel the idea of ​​surrendering.

As for why he wanted to surrender, only he knew it in his heart.

Perhaps it was because of a cherishing life, or perhaps it was because it felt that it was not worth fighting for the Yuan Dynasty like this.

And at this moment, the few conscripts from Zi Gaoyi finally rode down to the city.

After immediately following the city, he turned over and dismounted, the head councillor shouted: "Where is the magistrate of Zhuyang County! Where is the magistrate of Zhuyang County!"

The shouts were circulating under the city gate.

All the soldiers looked at him.

Someone looked at him on the top of the city wall.

Then someone reported this to the magistrate of Zhuyang County, "Mr. County Magistrate, someone is looking for you under the city."

The magistrate of Zhuyang County frowned slightly and said, "Didn't you see that the Song army has arrived at the city? Who is here to find my official?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a faint shouting under the city, "We are the magistrate of the magistrate of the prefecture, and we are here to find the magistrate of Zhuyang County! There is something important to report!"

The magistrate of Zhuyang did not listen too seriously, but walked towards the inside of the city wall.

Looking down, I saw the messengers.

He shouted, "I am the magistrate of Zhuyang County, why do you need someone?"

The head conscript looked up and said, "We are the governors of the prefecture!"

As he said that, he took out his waist tag.

Zhuyang County Magistrate is presbyopic. He doesn’t have glasses these days, so he can’t see clearly.

But probably no one can fake the token and pass the command.

He thought for a while and shouted to the soldiers below: "Let them come up!"

Several messengers hurriedly ran to the top of the city.

As soon as he arrived in front of the Zhuyang County Magistrate, the head messenger shook his token in front of him and said, "Mr. County Magistrate, we are here to send the orders of the magistrate.

The magistrate asked you to raise the city and surrender to the Song army."

In fact, they wanted to go directly to Batu, but now they saw that the Song Dynasty imperial guards had already been under the city, they knew it was too late.

When the magistrate Zhuyang County was slightly stunned when he heard this, he said, "Master General asked us to surrender?"

The head of the letter did not care much at this time and said bluntly: "The magistrate is ready to surrender the state."

The magistrate of Zhuyang County changed slightly, but his heart suddenly felt much more relaxed.

Then he shouted suddenly to the bottom: "Open the city gate! Surrender!"

The Yuan army under the city was afraid that they would like this, so they hurriedly ran into the corridor.

Outside the city.

The grenade launchers were in place, and some soldiers ran to Batong and reported: "General President, the grenade launcher is ready, please tell me."

Batumi nodded slightly, then slowly raised his hand.

Just when his hand fell, the city wall in Zhuyang County would face bombardment.

Fortunately, at this critical moment, the defenders in the corridor finally opened the city gate.

Batu saw this scene from a distance and was slightly stunned. He realized that things had changed and said, "Wait!"

A messenger hurriedly conveyed his order and shouted: "The grenade launcher is on standby! Stand by!"

Batumi put down his hand and stared at the city gate.

The magistrate of Zhuyang County walked out of the city gate with a few civil servants and generals, as well as the exhausted messengers.

Until less than two hundred troops of the Tiangui Army were left, the soldiers in the front row of Tiangui Army raised the Shenlong gun together, and their steps suddenly stopped.

"Put down the gun!"

Batumi pressed his hand against him.

The soldiers put down the Shenlong gun again.

Only then did the Zhuyang County Magistrate and others dare to continue moving forward.

Finally, stop about ten meters away from Batumi.

The magistrate of Zhuyang County led everyone to kneel down on the ground and said, "We are willing to surrender the city, and ask the general to let the city officials and the people."

Batumi nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, our soldiers of the Song Dynasty have never hurt the people."

He was also happy.

The county magistrate brought the officials out to join the Song Dynasty, which would save him a lot of trouble.

Although the Zhuyang defenders will definitely not be able to defend Zhuyang County, if they fight, the Tiangui Army will inevitably suffer losses.

Surrender is the most perfect result.

And the letter from Zi Gaoyi also said at this time: "General! We are here at the order of the magistrate of Guozhou. The magistrate is willing to surrender the state! Please give us your best."

Batumi laughed loudly, "Release, lift!"

He originally thought that it would take some effort to take over this Guozhou.

I really never thought that victory would come so easily, it was an unexpected surprise.

I just don’t know if he knew that this was entirely because Azusa Gaoyi was stimulated by Ruba, he would have offered Ruba’s immortal tablets at home.

Later, when Ba Tong led the Tiangui Army into the city, more than a thousand defenders in the city had already retreated from the top of the city to the bottom of the city.

Weapons and armor were thrown all over the floor.

The soldiers of the Tiangui Army quickly collected all the weapons and armor.

All the officials and guards were taken to the city.

Although they surrendered, they had to be imprisoned before the orders were issued from above.

The messengers from Zi Gaoyi hurriedly said goodbye to Batong and rushed to Guoluo City.

But the next day, Batumi led to Guoluo City.

Even if Zi Gaoyi surrenders, he has to take over the city defense.

Changsha.

Two things happened today.

First, Zhang Tingen finally convinced his grandfather Zhang Shijie and was ordered to go to the northern border and embark on his battlefield.

Zhao Dongting did not arrange specific military positions for him, but only gave him oral instructions and asked Yue Peng to arrange them as appropriate.

Zhang Shijie, who had retired, took Zhang Tingen to the city gate with his family.

Although he has other grandchildren, this does not mean that Zhang Tingen's weight in his heart is not important.

What he most hoped was of course that Zhang Tingen was assigned to a local or department by the emperor after he had accumulated enough qualifications in the imperial study.

But Zhang Tingen himself proposed to the northern border, and he showed enough determination. He was also infected by it and no longer stopped him.

When Zhang Tingen told him about this in front of him, he seemed to think of himself more than ten years ago.

At that time, as the court was running around, when wasn’t he mentally prepared to sacrifice his life for the country?

At the gate of the city, everyone bid farewell to each other.

Zhang Tingen's mother cried like a tearful person.

Zhang Tingen rode away and headed straight to the northern border.

The second is that Li Zhaoen was summoned to the Ministry of Science and Technology of the State Council as the Minister of State.

In just a few days, the Provincial Eunuch in the Palace has helped the Ministry of Science and Technology to free up the yamen.

In addition to Li Zhaoen, the Minister of Science and Technology, the accompanying students in his library were also recruited to serve in the Ministry of Science and Technology.

In addition, Zhao Dongting also ordered the Central Cabinet to recruit skilled craftsmen from all over the world to serve in the Ministry of Science and Technology.

Two government offices in charge of inventions in the Song Dynasty, the Ministry of Military Science and Technology and the Ministry of Science and Technology.
