Chapter 601 Surrender
After Jing Mo finished speaking, he took out a dumpling from his sleeve and threw it into the air. In an instant, there was a loud noise like thunder in the sky.

This thing is the treasure that Jing Mo got in Chunfengzhai. This is the signal of Chunfengzhai. As long as they hear a loud noise, the bandits of Chunfengzhai must gather at the place where the signal is sent out no matter where they are.

Now Chen Dahan and the others are all in Shangli City, they must leave the city after seeing the signal, and the only way to get out of the city quickly is to go out of the city gate.

Because the dog hole they climbed in before was only suitable for night, if many people climbed in and out during the day, someone would definitely find it, especially now that the enemy is in front of them, the soldiers stationed ignore the changes outside the city wall.

"What are you going to do again?" Zhou Roujia saw Jing Mo do too many things in one day, especially when she thought of what she said before, she was only curious.

"Help your father and let him have enough reasons to save you. If your father opened the city gate just because of yourself, then you survived by luck, and the killing of King Zixu will be inevitable, but with my excuse , everything will be easy to talk about." Jing Mo said softly, and when he looked at Zhou Roujia, there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes.

Although Zhou Roujia's heart had become blank, she still moved after hearing Jing Mo's words, and then she still had an indifferent face, and her pink and delicate appearance seemed to be fake.

After Jing Mo sent out the signal, she sat on the high platform. From night to noon, she was busy and busy, and she didn't feel hungry until she sat down.

She looked at the soldiers under the high platform, and asked softly: "Brother, whoever brought food, share it with me, I'm hungry."

Jing Mo's words made the soldiers under the high stage happy. Their little princess's performance just now surprised them very much. They are still waiting for Jing Mo to continue to bring them surprises, but she will say that she is hungry at this time. up.

Although they were surprised, they would naturally not let Jing Mo go hungry. The soldiers who were carrying food around the high platform took out food from their arms one after another, and some people took out water bottles. These things were quickly delivered to Jing Mo’s before.

"Feed Zhou Roujia, she's hungry too." Jing Mo shouted to the last soldier who was about to leave.

"She..." Xiao Bing hesitated. Although there was a consensus among several countries to treat prisoners preferentially, this prisoner is now threatening the Lord of Shangli City. Now feed her...

"If she starves to death, do you believe that City Lord Zhou will fight us to the death?" Jing Mo asked in a low voice. Of course she knew that Zhou Roujia would not die of hunger, but she felt guilty towards him now, so she had to do something to make up for it .

The little soldier obediently fed Zhou Roujia with cakes and water, and Jing Mo also sat on the high platform to eat cakes and drink water, and he was full after a while, with a satisfied look on his face.

But at this moment, not only Li Chang'an and Daliang's soldiers were watching Jingmo calmly drinking water on the high platform, but even the garrison of Shangli City and Zhou City Lord were staring at the small high platform of Daliang Kingdom.

Seeing that Jingmo asked Roujia to be fed food and water, City Lord Zhou finally felt relieved.

He could almost be sure that Jing Mo would not take Zhou Roujia's life, but he still didn't dare to act rashly. He didn't know how many casualties would be caused if he hastily ordered someone to take Zhou Roujia back now, and whether it would cause no change. s consequence.

Because it was about his favorite daughter, he didn't dare to bet.

So the two warring parties fell into a strange silence, and the change of the battle situation after a while obviously depended on the attitude of the girl sitting comfortably on the high platform.

It's just that they waited and waited but couldn't wait for the girl to make a move. Everyone began to suspect in their hearts that she was just a little girl, and she shouldn't have any violent methods, but judging by her appearance just now, it didn't look like she was waiting for something, or ...

Just when City Lord Zhou on the tower of Shangli City realized what Jing Mo was waiting for, he panicked. Before he could think of what he was waiting for, he heard the commotion of the people in the city. They were clamoring to rush out of the city gate. Li was still saying that if they couldn't get out of the city gate today, they would have to starve to death in the city.

"City Lord Zhou, you can be loyal to the king and serve the country, but you can't disregard our life and death. The only granary in the city is on fire. We can't starve to death here." An old man saw that the person looking at them from the tower was the City Lord. , shouted loudly.

As soon as his words fell, the crowd began to shout loudly: "We want to live, we want to go out, you can be your loyal servant, the city lord, but you can't disregard our lives, the city lord, quickly open the city gate and let us go out."

"If you don't give the order, City Master, we will rush out by ourselves. Anyway, we will die inside. If we rush once, there may be hope."

"City Master, do you want to watch us all starve to death in this city?"

"City Lord, you can't disregard the lives of the people."

"..."

The accusation made Zhou City Lord's face turn cold. Yes, before, he only wanted to be a loyal minister and serve his country.

But now, their words are simple but straightforward, they want to live.

He is trapped here, what is the result?In the absence of food and grass now?
Even if he stays here, how long can he hold on to Shangli City?Even if Daliang's soldiers can't get in, they can't get out. As long as they cut off their food supply, they won't last long.

However, Shangli City is Zixu's gateway. If Shangli City falls, the next few cities will be easy to attack and difficult to defend. At that time, Zixu Kingdom will not lose Shangli City.

City Lord Zhou was still hesitating. He was a little at a loss. He had been an official and led troops for many years. For the first time, he was stumped by a child's problem.

He now knew that the panic inside must have been caused by the child outside.

And Jingmo stood up with a smile when City Lord Zhou looked at her again. She smiled in the direction of City Lord Zhou. She believed that she could see her pride. His long sword gestured at Zhou Roujia a few times, and that serious look made City Lord Zhou's heart hang again.

"Let them go out of the city." City Lord Zhou sighed helplessly, and finally opened his mouth with difficulty, but after speaking, he couldn't hold on anymore and fell to the ground.

"I ordered that the officers, soldiers and people of Shangli City surrender their arms to Daliang. Although the little girl acted cruelly, Li Chang'an is the one who keeps her word in this army. Even for the convenience of attacking the city in the future, he will not embarrass you and the people." City Lord Zhou sighed and said in a low voice.

After speaking, he stood up with difficulty. He had to stand up, even if he made the most difficult decision in his life, because he wanted to welcome the Daliang Army into the city in the name of the highest official of Shangli City.

Just like what the people struggling at the gate of the city are seeking, when rights and ideals become unattainable dreams, then living and living happily with one's family becomes the ultimate pursuit.

City Lord Zhou is a person who knows how to judge the situation. He has no regrets after making this choice, even if it is only for his own daughter.

After City Lord Zhou shouted to open the city gate, the angry people inside the city gate fell silent. They stood quietly at the city gate because they already knew that their City Lord had chosen to surrender.

From now on, Shangli City will be labeled as Daliang.
