The city of Yangzhou was already in chaos. As long as the Nanjing Forbidden Army was willing to follow Shi Kefa, they all gathered around the 2nd Regiment of the 10th Division. The area around the 2nd Regiment of the 10th Division suddenly became a military restricted area. Many private houses were requisitioned, and soldiers climbed on the roofs.

, or hiding in the dark. The fire cannon is pointed at the street entrance. Anyone who passes by will definitely be beaten with holes all over.

"Master of the Ministry of War, are we just waiting like this?" Liu Liangzuo was a little surprised. Could it be that rebellion means sitting in the military camp and waiting for people to attack? Shouldn't it be an active attack and quickly defeat all the defenders in the city. Then the king's flag will be changed at the top of the city and the surrender will be announced.

The Liao army? Surrendered like this, and it still has a lot of merit.

"Yes, just wait. The Liao army will enter the city soon. What can you do if you are beaten to death while running back and forth? Can the guy in your hand beat others?" Shi Kefa sat on a chair.

, drinking tea leisurely. Anyway, his mission tonight is to keep all the troops who are willing to surrender with him in the 2nd Regiment of the 10th Division and not run around.

The Liao soldiers will attack all Ming troops except the 2nd Regiment of the 10th Division, regardless of whether these people have white towels on their arms.

"Listen to me, our defense area is only a few streets around the Second Regiment. If someone goes out and is beaten to death, don't blame me, Shi Kefa, for not saying hello." Hearing the huge explosion from the city gate, Shi Kefa once again

He reiterated his order.

Like Shi Kefa, Zhang Rusong also stayed at home in fear. Many family members of his loyal subordinates also came to his home as if they had fled. Surrounding his home were layers of soldiers from the patrol camp. Zhang Rusong mobilized nearly 30,000 people from the patrol camp.

Around my home, not even a bird can fly in, let alone the rebels.

The soldiers of the patrol battalion did not attack, but just built a defense line around Zhang Rusong's house. As long as no one attacked here, they would not be stupid enough to attack others.

Yuan Keding rushed into the strange city of Yangzhou. Not to mention soldiers, there were no police officers on the streets. The streets were clean and quiet, not even a single person was seen. There were constant instructions from the hot air balloon, telling him where he was around.

There was a large army. Yuan Keding was surprised to find that those troops would not attack when they saw the Liao army. Instead, they would just hold on to their own one-third of an acre, as if the Liao army's entry into the city had nothing to do with them.

The strange atmosphere made Yuan Keding feel a little unsure. He was very afraid that the situation in front of him was a trap. The Liao soldiers were able to fight because they had strong artillery support behind them. Now that he had hundreds of people rushing into the encirclement of tens of thousands of other people's troops, how could he?

Seems like he is seeking death. As long as tonight's incident is a trap, hundreds of people like him will become dumpling fillings.

Marching quickly along the street, the soldiers watched the buildings on both sides of the street warily. Through the dim moonlight, the nervous soldiers could even see equally nervous eyes inside the cracks in the door.

Suddenly an army appeared in front of the team, and both sides fired almost at the same time. All the soldiers in the front row fell to the ground, but when the gunmen from the second row of the Nanjing Forbidden Army were about to step forward, the Liao army had already fired their second shot.

In his hand was a revolver that could fire six shots continuously. The bullets passed through the bodies of the soldiers in the front row and shot into the bodies of the soldiers in the rear row.

The powerful bullets even passed through two people in a row and entered the body of the third person before stopping in that person's body. The first three rows of soldiers of the Nanjing Forbidden Army were killed in large numbers as if they were shot in a single encounter.

The gunmen at the back were unwilling to give up. In the panic, some people started shooting randomly. They even put the blunderbuss on other people's shoulders and started to fire, regardless of the people in front of them.

Even in a panic, I couldn't be sure. I was thankful that one of the ten bullets was able to hit.

The trigger was pulled continuously, and the six bullets were fired almost instantly. The Nanjing Forbidden Army on the opposite side was already covered with corpses, howling like ghosts, and the second row of Liao soldiers ran to the front and knelt on the ground. One hand was holding the gun on the knee, and the other was

He pulled the trigger with one hand. After the six bullets were fired, the blood on the other side became a river.

This is no longer a war, but a massacre. The Nanjing Forbidden Army's shooting range was blocked by their own bodies, and they could not shoot at all. They could only be beaten by the Liao soldiers who kept firing. At this time, the high rate of fire of the firearms played a decisive role.

function.

Before the Nanjing Forbidden Army could recover, the mortars carried by the Liao soldiers had already opened fire. Rows of shells roared down and exploded among the Nanjing Forbidden Army soldiers. Gorgeous orange flames continued to explode in the dark night.

, accompanied by the blue-black smoke and the screams of the Nanjing Forbidden Army soldiers.

In just a few minutes, two entire companies of the Nanjing Forbidden Army were knocked down. The corpses of the soldiers fell to the ground, bleeding into rivers, and the injured wailed in pain on the ground. They dispersed in a hurry. This battle was not possible at all.

There's no fucking way to fight.

"Charge!" The light of the hot air balloon came from overhead again. Yuan Keding knew that there were only two companies below. He raised his revolver in his hand and shouted, leading the Liao army to charge.

Cao Bianjiao on the other side was in great pain, because the gate of the city was the hardest-hit area where excrement was thrown. The dark green excrement soup was already hard on the top, but still thin on the bottom. When he stepped on it, there was a "puff" and "puff" sound, and the maggots immediately followed his trouser legs.

Climb up.

Explosive packs were hung on the city gate, and the soldiers waded through the manure soup and ran to the walls on both sides of the city gate.

"Boom!" After an explosion, the dung soup scattered in all directions and maggots flew all over the sky. Without any obstruction, the dung soup poured into the city at once. Along with the dung soup, there was also the smell of dung all over the body.

A soldier of the Liao army.

"Fucking bastard! Wow!" Cao Bianjiao felt his legs were weak, not from running, but from vomiting.

The soldiers of the Third Division behind them were not much better. They all smelled like shit and had maggots crawling on their bodies. Their image was extremely bad. The annoyed officers and soldiers of the Third Division looked for their opponents angrily. Now only fighting could heal their constant convulsions.

stomach.

Unfortunately, Cao Bianjiao encountered the same situation as Yuan Keding. There was not a single person on the street. Not to mention people, not even a night owl.

It can be said that Sun Kewang was unlucky. Sun Kewang's 10th Division headquarters was not far from the north gate. The hot air balloon above his head had sent out a light signal, telling Cao Bianjiao that he could bypass this place. Cao Bianjiao, who was full of anger, didn't care.

Come on, he needs to fight now! Fight! Kill these sons of bitches who are pouring shit everywhere.

At the headquarters of the 10th Division, there is now only one guard battalion left. The various regiments have now completely lost contact, and now the troops are all in disarray. The division cannot contact the regiment, the regiment cannot contact the battalion, and the battalion cannot contact the company.

Many battalion company commanders took their troops to Shi Kefa without informing their superiors. In the chaotic situation, the only thing Sun Kewang could count on was the guard battalion, and then they met Cao Bianjiao, who was stinking of shit.

"Fuck them!" Cao Bianjiao roared, and the mortars behind him began to fire. He was so cowardly that he started to be cowardly as soon as he arrived at the outskirts of Yangzhou. This son of a bitch's fight made Cao Bianjiao sick to his core, and now he can finally let go of the pain in his chest.

The bad smell. Uh...and that stench!

Mortar shells hit the division headquarters one after another, and Sun Kewang's poor guard battalion had no chance to fight back. Because their mortars were not equipped to the battalion, each regiment only had one mortar company.

The shells overturned the sacks filled with sand, and the soldiers inside screamed and rolled on the ground. Under the moonlight, the soldiers of the Nanjing Forbidden Army shot randomly, but unfortunately the range of the rifles was not comparable to that of the mortars. Their bullets were not qualified to threaten others.

.

Mortars blasted open the outer positions, and the soldiers of the Third Division began to charge. The overwhelming momentum and precise shooting all showed that they were a well-trained force. Starting from the outer reaches of Yangzhou, a battle was finally possible

An upright battle.

Li Xiao stood outside Yangzhou City, constantly receiving light signal instructions from the hot air balloon. There was a huge sand table behind him, and following the light signal, small flags began to be planted all over Yangzhou.

"The headquarters of the Tenth Division has been completely wiped out, and the headquarters of the Eleventh Division has also been wiped out. They are attacking the prefect's Yamen!"

The courtyards representing various important goals were also decorated with small flags.

When the sky was slightly bright, the gunshots and explosions in Yangzhou City began to become sparse. A tall guy was brought to Li Xiao: "Commander, this man is the messenger of Yangzhou garrison Zhang Rusong. Zhang Rusong wants to surrender!"

"

Li Dingguo brought the envoy to Li Xiao, saluted and said to Li Xiao.

"Surrender?" Li Xiao glanced at the envoy. He was an unspectacular person.

"Yes! My master sent a servant to discuss the terms of surrender with the commander-in-chief." The man bowed, making him appear much shorter.

"Conditions?" Li Xiao was so angry that he still dared to negotiate terms with himself at this time.

"My lord said...!" The messenger seemed to be unaware of his disadvantaged situation.

"It's useless what your adults say. You should go back now. Tell him to take advantage of some time to tell his family if he has anything to say. It will not bring harm to the family, and the Liao army will not engage in implicating others." Li Xiao was arrogant.

interrupted the messenger.

The envoy was stunned on the spot, and it took him a long time to react: "I have more than 30,000 soldiers in the Yangzhou garrison...!"

"Soon there will be more than 30,000 corpses, get out!" Li Hu kicked the envoy, but he still dared to negotiate terms at this time. Moreover, it was the Yangzhou garrison with few muskets. Fighting with them would not be a war.

, but his mother's slaughter.

"Go back and tell that bullshit of yours, either you will be carried out as more than 30,000 corpses, or you will walk out and throw down the guy in your hands and surrender unconditionally. There is no third way, get out!" Li Xiao threw it lightly.

After saying a few words, Li Dingguo picked up the collar and carried the person away.

"You were brought here to serve as a guard camp. This matter has nothing to do with you, so don't say anything!" After the people left, Li Xiao frowned and looked at Li Hu.

"This man is really...!"

"Really? It's normal for people to surrender and want to discuss the terms. Remember, you are a battalion commander now. Don't interrupt when you are not supposed to be talking."

"No!" Li Hu pursed his lips and bowed to promise.

The sky gradually grew brighter, and the sun peeked out from behind Li Xiao. Thousands of rays of light reflected the Yangzhou city wall in red. On the top of the city, soldiers of the Liao army took off the flag of the Nanming army and hoisted the flag of the Liao army.

The east gate of Yangzhou City opened, and groups of soldiers walked out of it. When passing by the city gate, they would put down their weapons at a designated place. Cao Wenzhao's requirements were very strict, and they even wore the armed belts around their waists.

You have to pick it off and throw it on the ground.

Those who were able to come out were the Nanjing Forbidden Army who were willing to follow Shi Kefa. They originally thought that they could fight vigorously tonight, and then join the Liao Army in glory. However, they did not expect that after sitting there all night, in the morning

Then he became a prisoner.

Although there was a huge psychological gap, they were still grateful when they saw the broken corpses on the street. It had to be said that the Liao army was too strong. Without the protection of the city wall, they had no power to fight against the Liao army.

A large number of people sat in darkness under the city wall, bathing in the morning sunshine.

Hundreds of Liao soldiers came over, and then the captive soldiers lined up in a long queue. Each person could receive a bamboo tube of porridge, two white-flour steamed buns, a few salty radish strips, and two salty slices.

Meat is considered a vegetable.

Many people muttered and were not satisfied with the identity of the prisoners.

"I didn't expect that the Ministry of War can also lie to others. What the hell are we? We are all prisoners!"

"Hey...! It's all my fault that the company commander drank wine last night."

"Why are you blaming the company commander? The battalion commander takes the lead and the company commander dares not to follow?"

"Then the fourth company commander didn't follow?"

"You're talking about the Fourth Company. Didn't you see that many of the corpses on the street just now were soldiers from the Fourth Company?"

"Forget it! I'm alive at least."
