Zhang Lingqing knew that these words would definitely make Su Yan furious, but he had to say it, so he could only say it with a tough bullet.
"Bang,"
Su Yan's expression was gloomy, and he could no longer control his anger. He slapped the table hard. How could the table bear such a huge force? It exploded with a bang, and the broken wood flew across the board. , everyone was so scared that they all retreated.
"Food bucket, a bunch of food buckets,"
Su Yan was furious. He didn't expect that Dingzhou would be so depressed. However, he knew that being angry would be useless. After a while, he calmed down slightly and asked, "When did it happen?"
"Two days ago, so a large number of refugees flocked to Anping Mansion during this period," Zhang Lingqing replied cautiously, for fear of angering Su Yan.
"If there are refugees, then the chaos army has not completely occupied the city," Su Yan thought of this and frowned and thought.
"Since there has not been much fierce battle, there must be many scattered soldiers. In this way, we will gather the scattered soldiers as the quelling army and spread news, so that all scattered soldiers will come to Anping Mansion to gather. If there are deserters, fight After the inspection, the military law dealt with,"
“As for orders,”
Zhao Qingcang and Su Yang agreed in unison, then turned around and walked out, and Zhang Lingqing hurriedly followed.
After arranging the matter, Su Yan also rubbed his painful forehead and went to rest. He had been busy for a day today and was really tired.
Su Yan's expectations were exactly the same. Because the chaotic army captured Qingze Prefecture and Heyang Prefecture all the way, many scattered soldiers fled to the vicinity of Anping Prefecture. Seeing that Su Yang and others were gathering the scattered soldiers, they joined them together.
In less than two days, more than 4,000 troops had gathered in Anping Mansion. Most of them were regular troops in the two mansions, including some organized troops. They were unwilling to surrender to the rebels, so they fought and retreated all the way. Arrived here.
Through the past two days of investigation, Su Yan also roughly learned about the situation in Dingzhou. Although the current chaos army is powerful, it finally has few troops, so after capturing the city, it cannot allocate many troops to guard it.
After the other party captured Heyang Prefecture, they went north, because the north was the core location of Dingzhou, and key central areas such as the Zhoumu Prefecture were all in the north.
Therefore, in Qingze and Heyang, there were not many chaotic troops, only about two or three thousand people, Su Yan decided to go east and recapture Qingze and Heyang.
Along the way, Su Yan gathered some troops again. At this moment, there were about 5,000 troops. Most of these troops were soldiers and horses stationed on the border for a long time. They were brave and good at fighting. In addition, Su Yan had the commander of the army to quell the rebellion. The name of the army is holding an imperial edict and has a high prestige, so this army is united and has great power, unlike some mobs.
"General, we are about to arrive at Qingze Mansion. What should we do? Siege the city."
After hearing the scout's report, Zhao Qingcang asked Su Yan.
"Turn them out, our team has no ability to attack the city."
Su Yan said that his army was temporarily organized after all, and there was no siege equipment, if it sieges the city, it would be a death.
"How to attract,"
"It's very simple. These chaotic troops have been unstoppable throughout the journey and have not encountered much resistance at all. They can't help but feel arrogant. If you lead people to challenge outside the city, they will definitely come out," Su Yan said with a smile, thinking about these people's psychology Very clear.
Qingze Prefecture was built three hundred years ago. Because it was one of the few big cities in Dingzhou, it was built according to the specifications of big cities, which was quite impressive.
“What is this place,”
Su Yan stopped stance, looked at the mountains on both sides, and asked.
"This place is Qifeng Mountain, very close to Qingze Prefecture, only about five or six miles," replied an officer from Qingze Prefecture.
"Then let's be here," Su Yan looked around for a while, and saw the steep mountains and narrow mountain roads. He smiled and said, "Zhao Qingcang, you bring a thousand men to the city to call, and then you will be defeated and flee to the end of the city. Here, we caught him off guard.”
"As for the order," Zhao Qingcang responded with a laugh, then ordered a thousand troops and ran all the way to Qingze Mansion.
After a while, Zhao Qingcang's men arrived outside Qingze Mansion, and the chaotic troops in the city naturally found this men and horses, and rushed to the top of the city and looked over.
"Babys, your grandfather Zhao is here, come down quickly and die."
Zhao Qingcang stood a hundred steps outside the city gate, rode on the horse, pointed at the soldiers above and shouted loudly.
"Damn, who are you?"
A man with the appearance of a leader lay on the top of the city and shouted loudly.
"Grandpa called Zhao Qingcang. Those who took your dog's life will come out quickly and die. Otherwise, when grandpa enters the city, he will definitely kill Deer and others without leaving any armor, hahahahaha."
Zhao Qingcang shouted loudly, and the soldiers behind him also started to curse, and all kinds of dirty words emerged one after another.
"Damn..."
Looking at Zhao Qingcang and others' arrogant appearance, the rioters on the city were furious and began to scold them. They fought all the way, and the officials were fleeing like rats. Never encountered Zhao Qingcang. Not only did such officers and soldiers not escape, they were so arrogant, and they dared to block the city gate and curse.
After a long time, these people could no longer bear it. After ordering the troops and horses, they rushed out of the city. Zhao Qingcang led about a thousand people. The rioters did not dare to be careless, and the other was to teach Zhao Qing a lesson. After a long period of time, there were two or three thousand people coming out in full bloom.
"Dog thief, come to die,"
The leader ran out first and killed Zhao Qingcang.
Zhao Qingcang also drew his sword to meet him, fighting for more than ten rounds, and then Zhao Qingcang deliberately sold his flaws, and escaped from his hand, shouting: "The chaotic army is powerful, withdraw,"
With this shout, the soldiers behind threw away the battle flags, then scattered and ran towards the back.
"Haha, see, you still dare to be arrogant, kids, chase them, kill them all,"
When the leader saw Zhao Qingcang turn around and flee, he couldn't help but be proud. He waved his sword and shouted loudly, and chased Zhao Qingcang.
"quick,"
Zhao Qingcang shouted, and fled with the soldiers behind him, and had already reached the foot of Qifeng Mountain.
If the experienced general saw this scene, he would definitely not dare to pursue it rashly, because although Zhao Qingcang's troops seemed panicked, their army was in a neat manner and retreated in an orderly manner. The mountains ahead were steep. If the other party was ambushed, they would die. undoubtedly.
But these chaotic soldiers didn't understand these, and they didn't care about them, and followed Zhao Qingcang into the mountains.
"kill,"
After Zhao Qingcang's troops entered the deep mountains, Zhao Qingcang suddenly shouted like thunder, and then suddenly turned his horse's head and turned his head to kill him.
The soldiers behind also turned around and rushed towards the back, shouting loudly.
The sudden change occurred and there was no time to react. Especially the leader, who was still stunned, saw a sharp sword light passing by, and a chill around his neck, and soon he lost consciousness.
"Ah...Run,"
The people in front suddenly came, which scared the chaotic soldiers. After resisting for a while, they began to get into chaos. They turned their horses and wanted to escape from this place.
But before they could go far, a soldier suddenly came from behind. It was Su Yan's troops who were ambushing here. This time, they attacked each other from the front and back, and these people were already a group of mobs, and there was no such thing as a swagger. The so-called fighting spirit was killed in a short while and the rest also surrendered.
After a small victory, Su Yan's men entered Qingze Mansion.
After entering Qingze, some officials who had not yet been tragically injured were released, allowing them to re-stabilize the order in Qingze Prefecture.
Qingze Prefecture was restored, and Su Yan had more people and horses. In addition, some scattered soldiers and prisoners were about seven or eight thousand, leaving some people to defend the city, and Su Yan brought the remaining people to the river. Yangfu.
The same person led the snake out of the cave, and these people could not resist the attack of Su Yan and other officials, who were like wolves and tigers, and soon surrendered, and Su Yan also successfully took back Heyang.
But this did not make him happy. After all, these were just small fusses. The real crisis had not been resolved. The main force of the chaos army directly reached the northern region, which was the central place of Dingzhou. If those places fell, then It would be difficult to save the crisis.
So Su Yan did not stay here for a long time. After stabilizing the situation slightly, he ran all the way north. And counting the time, the large army led by Su Fei should have arrived at the main city of Dingzhou, Ding'an City, Su Yan also wants to go and meet them.
Although Ding'an City is not too far from Heyang Prefecture, Su Yan cannot follow the route of the rioters, because this is already an enemy-occupied area and is too dangerous.
Su Yan was advancing all the way through the chaos. It took two days to walk one day. At noon on the third day, Su Yan and his group arrived outside Ding'an City.
"Get out, get out,"
Outside the city gate, two soldiers suddenly pushed an old man in rags out.
"June, let me in, please,"
The old man knelt in front of the two soldiers and cried.
Seeing the old man's appearance, the two soldiers pushed him away despite their unbearable face and said, "I have already said that Lord Zhou Mu has issued a death order, and refugees are strictly prohibited from entering the city. If you are careful, we are not polite. ,”
"But my little grandson is about to starve to death," the old man pointed to a seven or eight-year-old child on the ground next to him and said in a crying voice.
"This is the order above, and I have no choice. It's not just you. Look at the people behind you, they can't get in." At this moment, Ding'an City has gathered a large number of refugees, but it is obvious that the order in the city is to prohibit refugees from being allowed. When they entered, they could only gather outside the city, with a lot of hot air dying, obviously about to starve to death.
Seeing the old man's pitiful appearance, Su Yan frowned and was about to come forward to help, but a man suddenly walked out of the city, stepped forward to help the old man up, scolded the two soldiers, "What are you doing, what are you doing? Treat an old man like this.”
