Chapter 2223 The battle is over, appease the surname
"We are willing to surrender."
In the end, the three men did not have the courage to sacrifice their lives for the sake of justice, and they laid down their weapons.
In the face of death, no humiliation matters.
"Congratulations, you made the right choice. Now follow me to the front and ask your people to surrender.
Since they are not opponents, why let them lose their lives? "
Zhao Tiejun did not delay any longer and escorted the three men forward.
At this time, the battle in the front was already one-sided, and under the surprise attack, the rebels were unable to organize any large-scale resistance.
Even if Chief Ma went to organize it, it was of no use at all.
Seeing Zhao Tiejun and his men coming, Chief Ma immediately shouted:
"Stop your fighting..."
Before he could finish, the Blade Team rushed over and killed several guards around Chief Ma when they were not prepared.
When the sharp knife was placed on the horse leader's neck, he was still a little dazed:
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? Of course I'll take you down.
Make your people surrender immediately, or I will kill you immediately." Zhao Tiejun sneered.
"You actually want to surrender? Even if you surrender, do you think the Tang people will let you go?" Chief Ma became furious after hearing this.
"Haha, this is not something you should consider. Let your men lay down their weapons."
Zhao Tiejun didn't waste any time talking to him.
"You..." Leader Ma's face turned ashen.
"I'll give you three breaths."
Zhao Tiejun raised three fingers, then looked at Leader Ma coldly, and slowly the number turned into two, and then the last one.
"Put down your weapons and surrender!" Leader Ma finally shouted, and the rebels in front finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the order.
They were no match for the Tang people at all. They had suffered heavy casualties in just a short period of time. It was a one-sided massacre.
Their weapons were simply unable to penetrate the enemy's armor. If the enemy had not been unable to charge on horseback due to the small space, they would have been killed long ago.
"Clang, clang."
People dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground.
And the Tang army did not kill them, but passed them and continued to fight.
Under the orders of several other leaders, all the remaining rebels threw down their weapons and surrendered.
At this time, a tall horse came over, with a military general sitting on it.
Zhao Tiejun quickly led several leaders to the front of the general's horse and saluted:
"I am here to see General Xue."
"General?" Several people immediately looked up at Xue Rengui. This man was actually a general.
Xue Rengui nodded:
"Tiejun, you did a great job. The prince is very satisfied. You will be rewarded handsomely when you return. The prince will also reward you handsomely."
"Thank you, Your Highness Prince Ji. This is what I should do."
Zhao Tiejun immediately expressed his gratitude, with an expression of uncontrollable joy on his face. Not only him, but also the members of the Sharp Blade team behind him were all filled with joy.
The huge reward that King Ji mentioned can only be described in three words: get rich.
Given King Ji's generosity, this time they might get ten years' salary, or even twenty, thirty, or perhaps even fifty years' salary.
Why do they train desperately and carry out missions at risk of life and death?
Defending the country? No, they are just guards of Prince Ji's mansion. They are just for glory and wealth.
The purpose is to bring blessings to future generations.
Life is but a few short decades long. What they have now is enough for them to live their entire lives, but they are still working hard to save for their offspring.
Only then did the leaders truly believe that Zhao Tiejun was really a guard of Prince Ji's mansion, and Leader Ma was even more stunned.
It turns out that Zhao Tiejun is from Prince Ji’s Mansion.
"How are the supplies? Is there anything wrong?" Xue Rengui dismounted from his horse.
"Don't worry, General. I have already sent a team of 100 people to guard there. All the supplies are still there."
Zhao Tiejun had already made arrangements. The reason why there were only dozens of members of the Sharp Blade Team around him was because he had sent a hundred people to guard the supplies.
To prevent these rebels from becoming desperate and setting fire to the supplies.
"Take me to see it." Although Zhao Tiejun said that it would be fine, Xue Rengui still wanted to go and see it himself.
This batch of supplies is too important to Prince Ji, and with such a huge risk, the supplies cannot be lost.
"Yes." Zhao Tiejun ordered his men to take several leaders into custody, and then he took the remaining sharp blades and protected Xue Rengui as he headed to the rear.
When we arrived at the simple warehouse built at the foot of the mountain, we saw horse-drawn carriages parked neatly there.
Not only were there carriages, but there were also thousands of captured craftsmen gathered here, all hiding in one place, fear on their faces.
"General, there are too many people here. It's not safe."
Xue Rengui wanted to go forward to check, but was stopped by Zhao Tiejun. If so many craftsmen rioted, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"No problem, I'll say a few words to them."
Xue Rengui pushed Zhao Tiejun aside, stepped onto a large rock, and looked at the sea of heads.
It was daybreak now and he could see everyone's faces clearly.
Taking a deep breath, Xue Rengui shouted loudly:
"Don't be afraid. We are soldiers from the Tang Dynasty. We have come here specially to rescue you."
This sound immediately caused the crowd to become agitated.
"It's the Tang army that came to rescue us."
"The Tang Dynasty really hasn't given up on us."
"We can go home."
There are not only messages in it, but also some cries of pain. They were abducted, their future is unknown, and they may be killed at any time.
Not only do I not have enough to eat every day, I am also worried.
Now when they heard the word "Tang Army", they felt much more familiar, at least the Tang Army would not kill them.
"Quiet, quiet!" Zhao Tiejun yelled.
"You wait here first. Once we have dealt with the rebels, we will let you go home.
During this period, no one may act on their own, create disturbances, or generate friction.
Otherwise, you will be killed without mercy."
Xue Rengui continued to shout that there were too many people here and if they were not strictly managed, it would easily cause a riot.
Even a stampede would kill many people.
After hearing what the general said, everyone immediately began to spread the word. Even those who were not able to hear it were conveyed by those in front.
Knowing that they could go home soon, everyone cheered happily.
"Long live the Tang Dynasty."
Xue Rengui looked at this scene without caring. He did not mention Ji Wang Mansion. If he could distance himself from Ji Wang Mansion this matter, he would do so.
The purpose of revealing the identity of Tang Jun is to stabilize these thousands of people. We can't just kill them all to silence them.
After stepping down the stone, Xue Rengui led his men to separate the crowd. He needed to check the supply situation with his own eyes.
When he came to the carriage, he opened a box, which was full of cotton. He opened several boxes in the same way.
Under the guidance of Zhao Tiejun, he went to the other side, which was filled with copper coins, gold and silver accessories, and some decorations.
Unfortunately, in Xue Rengui's opinion, these things were not worthy of Ji Wang's attention. They were all worthless things.
"Is there anything else here?"
