He has already made up his mind.

War is inherently cruel. If I don't want to take this strategy today, I'm afraid I will have to pay many more lives of soldiers to attack the city.

If a general is ignorant of the kindness of women, he can only be irresponsible to the soldiers under his command.

The plan has been decided.

Zhao Tong looked determined and quickly ordered: "Order the king, his wife, and Lu Kai to break up the surrounding tribes and rob the hostages."

"These two people have lived in Nanzhong for many years, so they must be very familiar with the Yi tribe."

This policy is implemented.

The Yizhou Army also temporarily stopped attacking the city.

The defenders in the city suddenly felt relieved and finally had a chance to breathe.

A few days later, new battle reports spread throughout the city.

More and more Yi soldiers settled in Bengbu.

Waves of sadness and panic began to spread...

"Your Majesty, our tribe is being attacked by the Han people, please make the decision for us."

"I beg your Majesty to allow us to leave the city to rescue."

"Yes, we must not sit idly by and wait to die while our relatives are being abused by the Han people."

…

There was a series of requests, and as the Yizhou army defeated more and more tribes, the number of Yi people in the city who gathered to petition King Yue Junyi gradually increased.

only.

Gao Ding knew very well in his heart at this moment that the enemy was provoking him to fight.

If they really lead their troops to fight out, I am afraid that not only will the city be difficult to protect, but they will never come back!

In response to all the petitions filed by the Yu Yi tribe, they were all forcibly rejected.

However, this move aroused public anger. The barbarians had resentments in their hearts, but this was magnified infinitely.

They risk their lives and work for Haute Couture, but their tribe and relatives are threatened, but they are ignored.

How can this not be chilling?

The anger in the hearts of the Yi people gradually became stronger as the Yizhou army broke more and more tribes.

Immediately afterwards, the first small-scale barbarian rebellion broke out in the city.

Gaoding, the king of Yue Junyi, received the news and quickly organized military forces to violently extinguish it!

Although the rebellion was over, the resentment in the hearts of the Yi people was constantly taking root when they saw that the former Yi king showed no regard for human feelings.

Immediately afterwards, the second and third rebellions followed...

And the scale is getting bigger every time.

Continuously extinguishing the rebellion, Gao Ding had been almost exhausted in the past few days, and now he was exhausted and unable to cope.

And everything that happened in the city was watched by Zhao Tong at all times.

It seems that the civil strife among the barbarians has begun.

Zhao Tong immediately summoned the generals and ordered with a serious face: "According to the battle report, civil strife has broken out in Qiongdu City. If we attack the city at this moment, we will definitely be able to complete our work in one battle!"

"I propose to attack the city again."

A solemn instruction was passed down.

The generals took orders, and the soldiers of each department once again formed formations and gathered at the foot of the city to launch a fierce attack.

This time the offensive was much weaker than the previous resistance.

Haute couture is at the end of its rope.

Under the extremely fierce offensive pressure of the Yizhou Army, the complaints among the Yi soldiers became more and more serious.

That night, the Yi people spontaneously organized themselves to attack the palace. After a fierce battle, they beheaded Jun Yi King Gaoding.

Then, Kaicheng surrendered!

After experiencing all kinds of ravages of war, Qiongdu City was finally declared pacified.

Zhao Tong then led his troops into the city to take charge of the overall situation.

The Yi soldiers who surrendered were disbanded on the spot and registered in order to enrich the population.

As for introducing the barbarians into the army, Zhao Tong has not yet considered it.

Now he was originally in Nanzhong to suppress the rebellion. The Yi people were willing to open the city and surrender because the tribe was threatened and they had no choice but to do so.

It will take some time to drive them to fight.

After Qiongdu was pacified, the rest of the cities in Yuejun County were naturally afraid of the enemy's attack, so they easily communicated and decided.

And at this time.

News of the victory reached Qiongdu.

After Zhao Tong spread it out and looked it up, a trace of joy appeared on his face for a moment. Then he faced his generals and said with a smile: "Everyone, Li De'ang has sent good news, saying that he is in Kunze, Yizhou County.

Achieve significant results."

"They used the strategy of feinting to surrender to defeat the rebels and pursued them all the way to Doze. The rebels also suffered heavy losses in this battle."

"Not only that, Ma Zhong also captured the traitor Zhu Bao, pacified Xianggao County, and was about to send his troops with Li Hui to attack the headquarters of Yong Kai, the leader of the thieves, who was stationed in Wei County."

"Therefore, Li De'ang specially sent a message to the general, hoping to lead the main force to encircle the rebels."

That's it.

After Zhao Tong thought for a while, he said again: "Now that Yuejun County has been pacified, I would like to take the direct route from Qiongdu to Yizhou County for reinforcements."

"Brother Lu, Brother Wang has been in Nanzhong for a long time. I would like you to stay here to stabilize Yongchang and Yuejun counties and prevent the local barbarians from resurrecting in response to the rebels."

"It is a great achievement for you to be able to stabilize the two counties. After the war, I will record your achievements in the merit book and report them together."

The conversation fell apart after a while.

Lu Kai, Wang and his wife looked at each other, then they both raised their hands and responded: "Please rest assured, general, we will do our best!"

As the two men solemnly accepted the order, Zhao Tong relaxed a little.

Don't look at it now that Yuejun County has been declared pacified.

However, the Yi tribes here are still scattered in the surrounding mountains. If they are not handled carefully, they will resurgence in the future, which will become a serious problem.

After all, there is another Nanzhong King who has a decisive influence among the barbarians.

The order is passed down.

Just when Zhao Tong was about to announce the advance of the entire army, Lu Kai couldn't help but immediately stood up and said with his hands in his hands: "General, Kai suggests that the army should go through Anshang and bypass Tongweixian."

"Although the distance will be much shorter if we march directly from Qiongdu, Yuejun County has not built a wide road, and the roads are all mountain roads, which are too rugged and difficult to travel!"

"Although the detour on the Anshang side is far, the road is suitable for marching."

As soon as he said this, he was opposed by Zhao Tong, who waved his hand and said: "No, the current situation is favorable to our army. I must immediately lead my troops to encircle and annihilate the rebels."

"If Yong Kai is given a chance to breathe, the next step will be difficult."

"Brother Lu, there is no need to worry about me, just keep the safety of the two counties under control!"

"Okay, then I wish the general a smooth journey, put down the rebellion as soon as possible, and restore peace to the counties."

Waiting for instructions to be sent.

After a short rest and supplies in Qiongdu, the Yizhou Army embarked on the journey again.

However, on the road from Qiongdu to Wei County, it is an extremely steep mountain road, rugged and bumpy, with vast mountains and ridges, making it extremely difficult to pass.

Moreover, it is now the hot summer of June and July.

Extremely hot weather.

At this moment, the Yizhou Army was marching on the mountain road in the scorching sun. They were already sweating profusely. They gritted their teeth and relied on willpower to walk through the deep mountains.

Even Zhao Tong can understand at this moment why Lu Kai suggested taking the high road.

This path is indeed extremely difficult.

only.

The distance is indeed relatively close.

After building a bridge to pass through the Lushui River.

Yizhou County is within easy reach.

News of the main support of the Yizhou Army and the annihilation of Yue Junyi King Gaoding also came one after another.

After the news spread throughout the rebel formations, everyone in the rebel army was in panic.

Gaoding, the king of Yue Junyi, was destroyed, Kunze was defeated, and Zanggao County was also pacified...

A series of battle reports spread to Wei County like a tide at this moment.
Chapter completed!
