Chapter 173 Descendants of Confucius?How many battalions does he have?
Yang You, the acting county magistrate of Sishui County, is in his 60s, with white beard and hair, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and looks very friendly. Su Yonglin naturally greeted him with a smile.

From the conversation with him, Su Yonglin learned that the county magistrate and the county magistrate had all run away after he came to threaten him before, and the official forces of the Jin Kingdom also ran away, and now there are no Jurchens in the city.

Not only the people in the city, but even the Jurchens in the villages outside the city are said to have all run away, and there is no one left, and they don't know where they have gone.

It seemed that Su Yonglin's annihilation of that cavalry team had given them too much deterrence, which made them feel fear and despair, so he voluntarily gave up the county seat of Sishui and stopped resisting.

Since they all gave up Sishui County, there is no need for Sishui to be loyal to the Jin Kingdom, and no one will know about their loyalty to the Jin Kingdom, and no one will care. The Jurchens are too busy to take care of themselves. Are they still grateful to a group of loyal and filial Han people?

So they resolutely decided to surrender, decided to accept the leadership of the Restoration Army, and only asked Su Yonglin not to kill.

The fact that Su Yonglin directly led the Shengjie Army to kill all the Jin soldiers stationed outside the city was really scary.

"I also ask the general to be considerate to the people in the county, and never use swords or soldiers. Besides, what the general wants, everything is negotiable. The people of Sishui admire the general's martial virtue. If the general needs it, the people of Sishui will try their best to provide it."

Yang You bowed and saluted very respectfully, keeping his posture very low.

This made Su Yonglin very happy.

As the saying goes, don't slap the smiling face, but Su Yonglin certainly didn't make them feel scared. He treated them very kindly, and didn't let the soldiers enter the city, but let them camp outside the city.

He accepted the items for reward from the people in the city and handed them over to the army to arrange distribution. Then he brought a few personal guards into the city to attend the reception banquet hosted by Yang You.

In the banquet, all the celebrities in Sishui County were in place, they were familiar with Su Yonglin, and gave him a lot of gifts.

There is a lot of real gold and silver, a lot of copper coins, and a lot of grain.

Su Yonglin reciprocated, and appointed Yang You as the official Sishui county magistrate, letting him arrange positions in other counties, and he would not interfere in the specific government affairs of the county.

Of course, Su Yonglin didn't come for charity either, he still had to get what he wanted.

Su Yonglin had agreed with them that the Shengjie Army was equivalent to their superiors, and they needed to follow the past practice and hand over the taxes to the superior officials to the Shengjie Army.

And he also proposed to transfer the land and village population controlled by the Jin people to the control of the Shengjie Army, and they should not interfere.

In front of the fierce army, everything is negotiable. Yang You and the celebrities in Sishui County agreed to Su Yonglin's request, and also asked Su Yonglin if he needed anything else.

Su Yonglin made a few more painless requests, and they all agreed.

Su Yonglin was very satisfied with the people in Sishui County who were so good at speaking and being so reasonable and reasonable. He felt that they were worthy of being a model of the grass, and praised them greatly, saying that they could not station troops in Sishui County and leave everything to the people of Sishui themselves.

Surabaya people expressed their gratitude.

A hello, me, hello, everyone banquet ended happily like this. Su Yonglin was very satisfied with this group of grasshoppers and felt that they were very professional.

However, Su Yonglin was not so satisfied with another group of professional role models, and even felt that they were very unprofessional.

Under the Qufu county seat, Su Haisheng and Han Jinggui led troops to seal the waters surrounding Qufu county seat and demanded that they surrender the city.

However, Qufu County never opened the city, and asked to talk to the supreme commander of the Shengjie Army. Su Yonglin, the supreme commander, was not here, so Qufu County refused to open the city gate.

Su Haisheng and Han Jinggui were afraid of the Kong family in the city, worried that the storming of the county would bring pressure on Su Yonglin in public opinion, so they did not dare to force the siege, so they stationed their troops here, contacted Su Yonglin, and waited for Su Yonglin's news.

Su Yonglin was very angry when he learned about this in Sishui County, so he led the troops to come quickly.

In the garrison camp, Su Yonglin scolded Su Haisheng and Han Jinggui.

"He said he wouldn't open the city gate if he didn't open it? He said that if you want to see me, you really waited for me to come? Are you so obedient? Who is he? What qualifications does he have to deal with Shengjie Jun like this?"

Su Yonglin's eyes widened and he was furious, making Su Haisheng and Han Jinggui feel guilty for a while.

Su Haisheng said in a low voice, "Alang, they are descendants of Confucius after all. If we forcibly attack the city, wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate? Scholars all over the world regard them as gods. If we attack the city rashly, I am afraid we will receive a lot of criticism. Alang is a person who wants to do great things, and there can be no stains."

Su Yonglin laughed angrily, feeling that these guys really thought about themselves enough and thoughtful enough.

But does he need it?

"Criticism? I put a knife across his neck, what would he dare to criticize? The Jurchen approached the Central Plains with an alien race, does the Kong clan have any criticism? Isn't it still Duke Yansheng who was an alien? They really value criticism. ? Fart! They only care about profit!"

"But Alang, they are descendants of Confucius after all..."

"A descendant of Confucius? How many battalions does he have?!"

"This……"

"He has a fart! More than 1 troops are bluffing him to waste food outside the city without moving? He can't move you without saying a word? What are you holding? It's a knife! It's not a Confucian classic!
You are not their disciples, what are you pretending to be filial sons and worthy grandsons?What is Confucius?Is a model of the superior!The superior people touted them as saints, and your group of cattle and horses also worshipped with them?madness!Everything I teach you has gone to the dog's stomach? "

Su Yonglin glared angrily, so frightened that Su Haisheng, Han Jinggui and a group of officers did not dare to let out a sigh of relief.

"Send the order, siege the city! He won't open the city gate, I will help him open it!"

"Here!"

Su Yonglin gave an order, and the frightened officers immediately realized their mistake and made preparations immediately.

After a while, the Shengjie Army was ready to attack the city.

Through the captured Jin Army soldiers and siege equipment, the Shengjie Army already has large-scale siege equipment and the ability to siege cities.

As a result, the Shengjie Army put out bed crossbows, trebuchets, trench bridges, cloud ladders, watchtowers, dust trucks and other equipment outside the city. They also prepared a large number of throwing siege weapons such as stone bullets and firearms. City mobilization.

Su Yonglin sent someone to shoot an ultimatum into the city, demanding that Qufu County be opened within half an hour, otherwise the Shengjie Army would attack the city directly, regardless of casualties!
The letter was quickly delivered to Kong Zheng, the ruler of the city. After reading it, Kong Zheng was terrified, and when he heard that the Shengjie army outside the city was in a siege posture, he was quite scared.

The magistrate of Qufu asked Kong Zheng, Duke Yansheng, to make a decision to save the life of a city.

Kong Zheng was very worried about this.

Although Qufu county's defense is better than that of other county towns, it is only a county town after all, and there are not many troops.

He only thought about whether he could discuss the conditions with Shengjiejun outside the city. Unexpectedly, Shengjiejun was very talkative, so he made a few more demands, and the other party agreed. Against the army.

So he wondered if he could make a self-protection agreement through diplomatic means, so that they would not come to Qufu County to make trouble, and he would be at peace with them.

Why did it suddenly change?

Concerned, Kong Zheng went to the city with his family's private soldiers to observe the situation outside the city. Seeing that the troops outside the city were well-organized, large-scale siege equipment had been pushed to the front, and many people were busy before and after, it was obvious that Not kidding.

This is really going to siege!
"Kong Gong, what should we do? These rebels are really going to attack the city!"

The garrison commander at the head of the city was very frightened by this.

He is very aware of the guarding strength of Qufu County and has no confidence in the defense.

Kong Zheng thought about it and felt that he could not go on like this, so he decided to send someone out of the city to negotiate with the Shengjie army outside the city.

He sent his younger brother Kong Yu out to negotiate with the Shengjie Army.

And Kong Yu was not very happy to go out of the city to negotiate with the Shengjie Army.

"Brother, those are the rebels. What if they hold me hostage and demand to open the city gate? We still can't wait for reinforcements!"

Kong Yu refused.

Kong Zheng almost didn't say the sentence "We will open the city gate if you don't go".

"They're just outside the city, what are we waiting for reinforcements? Are they really going to attack the city, are you defending the city or I'm defending the city? We are going to open the city gate, you just go and negotiate with them that they won't send troops into the city. , don't touch the knife.

As long as they promise not to be rude, not to kill people, and not to rob, then whether they want money or food is negotiable. The situation is stronger than people. We can't let the rebels really attack the city, right?And we don't know what's going on in the front line, so don't mess around. "
