The anger in Yang Dezheng's chest was suppressed by Yang Qi. Yang Qi, who was afraid that Yang Dezheng would make a desperate move, did not even dare to ask Dezheng in detail about his alliance with the party members. Yang Qi faced Yang Dezheng and Yang Gui
, Yang Xin said, "Just give me three more days, okay? Can you trust me as an aunt?" Yang Dezheng looked at Yang Qi puzzled and didn't understand why Yang Qi said this. After all, these people are teenagers, and they have to bear the burden.
The pressure in their hearts was about to make them collapse. Yang Qi said, "In just three days, Yang Peng has started to take action."
Fan Long and Zhou Dayong, who were regarded as saviors by Yang Qi, were attacking a large city with 30,000 people. When Brother Yelvxiu sent troops to Fuxingguan, he mobilized some troops from this large city. More than 20 days ago,
Brother Yelvxiu also mobilized the last troops and horses from this big city. This big city was Dading, Zhongjing of the Liao Kingdom.
The Liao Kingdom had five capitals, namely Xijing Datong, Zhongjing Dading, Nanjing Youzhou, Tokyo, and Shangjing Capital. The closest ones to Shengzhou were Xijing Datong and Zhongjing Dading. According to the original strategy, Fan Long and Zhou Dayong followed Yun
After Neizhou bypassed the mountains of Shengzhou, it should have gone to attack Xijing Datong. However, after entering the Liao Kingdom.
Zhou Dayong changed his strategy. Because Brother Yelvxiu was fighting at Fuxing Pass, the road from Fuxing Pass to Datong, Xijing, was heavily guarded by Liao troops. Once they attacked Datong, Xijing, they would most likely be backhanded by Brother Yelvxiu.
Forced into the Liao Kingdom.
After careful consideration, Zhou Dayong decisively attacked Zhongjing Dading. Because Zhongjing Dading was at the heart of the Liao Kingdom. The number of soldiers and horses in the city had been mobilized by Brother Yelusiu. And compared with
Among the other four cities, Zhongjing Dading has the lowest city wall and the weakest defense. After deciding to sneak attack Zhongjing Dading.
Fan Long took his men and horses and killed all the Liao people who could expose them along the way. At the same time, he put away his armor, pretended to be a nomadic tribe, and approached Zhongjing Dading step by step. After arriving at Zhongjing Dading, after confirming
After the troops in Dading, Zhongjing were depleted, Zhou Dayong decisively led his troops to attack Dading, Zhongjing.
Outside Dading City, 30,000 Rangers of the Fourth Division had turned into infantry and were attacking the city. With the cooperation of spies who had sneaked in in advance, Dading, which was empty of troops, was defeated by Zhou Dayong in just one day.
It was broken. The moment when the 4th Division Rangers broke through Zhongjing Dading.
Zhou Dayong's soldiers ran over excitedly, knelt down on one knee in front of Zhou Dayong, and said excitedly: "General, the city of Dading has been destroyed, let's..." Zhou Dayong said coldly: "After entering the city, the Liao Kingdom
Killed all the dignitaries. They stole money, horses, cattle and sheep. The food was distributed to the Liao Han people in the city, and they were given weapons. After they robbed them, they set fire to the city. Only tonight can I rob them.
As much as you want, grab as much as you want."
Zhou Dayong's 30,000 Fourth Division Rangers have all robbed Yingzhou and Baozhou before. They are already familiar with robbing things. Although the money they robbed is often taken away, they like
During the robbery, I have to say that the group of party members recruited by Xing Xing were really cute. They didn’t say a word when they were suffering along with Xing Xing.
After grabbing the money, Aunt Xiang asked her to hand it over, so she handed it all over. There were very few people who even hid their secrets. They obviously couldn't get the money, but they still liked to rob. It seems that in their minds, helping the boss to rob things was the right thing to do. Fan
Long seemed to be aware of this. He felt that this group of people would have to live under Yang Dezheng's rule in the future without any money. So when his soldiers left, he added.
"You can keep 20% of the things you grabbed after you bring them back to Shengzhou." His soldiers stayed there for a full quarter of an hour before asking in disbelief: "The big-headed man is willing to reward us?" Fan Long was determined.
He nodded. The soldier suddenly jumped three feet high and was so happy that he couldn't find where to go.
He quickly jumped on his horse, ready to tell all the brothers the good news. When he passed the order to all the brothers, all the 4th Division Rangers were excited. Even those who joined
Soldiers of Shengzhou in the 4th Division Rangers.
Then, this group of excited bandits rushed into Dading, Zhongjing. Zhou Dayong said it was one night, so it was one night. When the sun rose the next day, a fire broke out in Dading, Zhongjing. Zhou Dayong just
After taking one look at the swarm of 4th Division Rangers running out of Zhongjing Dading, I knew that there would never be another Zhongjing Dading again.
Good guys! A group of bandit soldiers who have let go of their nature, robbed everything. Among them, Fan Long's personal soldiers, in addition to two large bags of gold and silver on horseback, there were also two girls who were knocked unconscious. This
The guy approached Fan Long in a thief manner and whispered: "General, after I rushed in, I snatched two of the most beautiful girls. I heard that they were the concubines raised by Brother Yelvxiu in Dading, and they will be delivered to you in the evening.
Let me warm you up in the tent."
Fan Long glanced at the two stunned girls wearing fancy clothes on his horse, shook his head, smiled, and glared at him. The soldiers had followed Fan Long for a long time and understood Fan Long's temper. Seeing Fan Long stared at him
He was not afraid either. He asked thiefly: "General, where should we go next? Go back?"
Fan Long clicked his lips, rolled his eyes and said: "I will definitely go back. But I can't go back the way we came. When we came out, General Eighth Sister said that if we go back the way we came, we would be courting death.
So we have to bypass Brother Yelvxiu. And I am not going to take the retreat route given by General Eighth Sister." The soldier was stunned and said: "Then where should we go?" Fan Long shook his riding whip and said loudly: "
You go and sew some more animal skin bags, and we will go and rob Xijing next. The Liao people never imagined that we would rob Xijing."
"Xijing? Isn't that what happened?" The soldier was overjoyed and immediately went to tell the other brothers the good news. Fan Long is a skilled man and bold, but they, the fourth division rangers, are stupid and bold. Zhou
Dayong is cooperating with Sister Yang's actions this time.
Hit whoever the boss says. This kind of thinking has been instilled in their heads from the moment they were born. As for whether they will die, they have never thought about it. If they die, they can just do it casually.
For a man who burns Dangxiang, dying in battle is the highest honor.
From the moment they were born, they were born for fighting. Fan Long led his troops in Dading, Zhongjing, burned, killed and looted a lot, and then left. After they left, people poured out of Dading, Zhongjing.
A group of Han people from the Liao region arrived. They held the swords issued to them by the 4th Division Rangers tremblingly, with blank expressions on their faces.
"Uncle, what should we do?" Suddenly no one was riding on their heads, and no one was taking care of them. They were really at a loss. The black-faced man at the head whispered: "Liao Liao in Dading City
Everyone is dead, and if we keep them, they can only be buried with them. Everyone is dead, so why don't we take our wives and children to have a try.
When I was serving a nobleman in the city, I heard him say that on the southwest coast, there are ships coming from Tianjing New City specifically to buy people like us. I heard that Tianjing New City and Youzhou were short of people, so we went there.
Not only were they given clothes and a house to live in, but they were also given land. And when the children got there, they also had books to read..."
"Do all the dolls really have books to read? Is it a lie?" "It's true... This is the law of our Tianjing New City. The monarch carved it on a stone tablet and erected it in the capital of Tianjing New City.
, all common people can go and see it.”
One sentence attracted everyone's attention. Everyone looked at the cleanly dressed guy with a dry smile on his face. "Who are you?" someone asked. The guy smiled bitterly and said: "I am not talented, it is Tianjing New City
I belong to the people. Our territory in Tianjing New City is vast and sparsely populated, and we are short of people. I followed the caravan to the Liao Kingdom, just to get some Han people from the Liao area to come over.
As long as I can bring you there, my business in Tianjing New City can be exempted from certain taxes. This is also my first time doing this kind of thing. I didn't expect...to encounter this..." Some people suspected
Said: "The emperor of Tianjing New City is really that good, can't he be a liar?"
When the emperor of Tianjing New City was mentioned, this guy's face immediately darkened and he reprimanded: "I, Tianjing New City, have no emperor as a city lord. I am the most merciful and best city lord in the world. Under his governance, everyone in Tianjing New City
There is food to eat, everyone has clothes to wear, and the children have to study.
Moreover, it is compulsory for children to study. As long as you are citizens of Tianjing New City, if you don't let your children study, the government will take action." The guy became more and more angry as he spoke, "You can say it, but you can't.
I, the city lord of Tianjing New City, am the most merciful city lord I have ever seen. I wish that his empire could last ten thousand years. In this case, my descendants will all enjoy happiness."
The black-faced man at the head asked in a deep voice: "Why does the Lord of Tianjing New City treat us so well?" The guy scratched his head, grimaced, and racked his brains and said: "I don't know the specifics.
It’s very clear. Some people say that the city lord is a Han who escaped from Liao, so he sympathizes with the suffering of the people here. But some people say that your majesty is accumulating merit. If you accumulate enough merit, you can live forever...
Anyway, there are different opinions, but I don’t know. In short, the city lord treats you Han people in Liao land very well. Not only will your family be given a hundred acres of land, but you will also be exempted from taxes for three years, and you will also be given cattle and farm tools. Everything I say is true.
, you can follow me to Tianjing New City and see with your own eyes. If this is not true, you can kill me.
If it's true..." The black-faced man at the head frowned and said, "If it's true, so what?" The guy smiled mischievously and said, "If it's true, when the officials who register you ask, you will
He said that I would lead you there." The black-faced man at the head said sternly: "If what you said is true, don't ask us to bring you a message, even if you ask me to act like a cow, I will not hesitate.
"
This guy waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile: "That's not possible. Our Tianjing New City has strict laws and does not allow Han slaves." Although this guy's ability to deceive people is not very good, he speaks sincerely. These Han people in Liaoning also
Believing it, they headed southwest.
Along the way, they met many Han people from the Liao region who were liberated by Fan Long. By the time they arrived at the southwest border, hundreds of thousands of people had gathered. When Wang Mingcheng saw these people, he was shocked. This is all for later.
.
Zhongjing Dading was destroyed. The Liao aristocrats there, including some branches of the Yelu royal family and the descendants of the Xiao family, were destroyed. This completely alarmed the entire Liao Kingdom.
Yang Dezheng stood on the top of the city and shouted loudly: "The generals of the Yang family, the infantry of Fuxing, and the officers and soldiers of the Jin army, all listen to me. From now on, no one is allowed to board the city. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished."
Kill them all." At the critical moment, Yang Dezheng no longer showed mercy and began to attack his own people.
Yang Dezheng is a person who would never do anything to his own people unless it was absolutely necessary. Now it is purely helpless to order the execution of soldiers who violate military orders. When Yang Dezheng's order was conveyed, there were immediately people on the city wall.
Hundreds of soldiers violated the ban and were beheaded by the military supervisors.
Under this high-pressure policy, Yang Dezheng's military orders were implemented thoroughly. Therefore, the soldiers at the critical moment of recovery stabilized their formation. However, even after they stabilized their formation, they faced 20 people outside the city.
When the Wan Liao Army attacked, they had no chance of winning. Yang Gui said solemnly: "Dalang, take the people to withdraw. The Fuxing Pass can no longer be defended."
What Yang Gui said was not depressing words, but the truth. Anyone with some battlefield experience knows that this battle cannot be won at Fuxing Pass no matter what. They have to admit that Brother Yeluxiu
He is a good manipulator of people's hearts. He has already played with the hearts of the soldiers who have been shut down by Fuxing.
Even Yang Dezheng couldn't win back the hearts of the soldiers on the city from Brother Yelvxiu. Most of the soldiers on the city were fighting for the first time. People's hearts are complicated. Yang Dezheng could give the soldiers the most.
Good weapons can also allow them to eat the best meals, and can also build a strong barrier to protect them. But Yang Dezheng cannot help them hone an indestructible heart in a short period of time.
Even Yang Dezheng didn't have an indestructible heart, let alone the soldiers on the city. After all, Yang Dezheng was a human being, not a god. Two hundred thousand Liao troops, riding on war horses, could defeat the enemy in just one stick of incense.
Rushing to the Fuxing Pass, they began to clear out the Liao Han people who stood in front of them.
The cry of killing was deafening. Brother Yeluxiu sat on his exclusive throne and watched with satisfaction the birth of another masterpiece of his. Brother Yeluxiu was very satisfied with this masterpiece.
"Da da da~" A fast horse galloped in front of Brother Yeluxiu's carriage. Brother Yeluxiu frowned subconsciously. When he saw the Liao soldiers jumping off the horse, he was slightly startled.
I saw the Liao soldier kneeling down in front of Brother Yelvxiu, holding a letter in both hands, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have come to Beijing to send you an urgent message."
The letter fell into Brother Yelvxiu's hands. The Liao soldiers fell to the ground and died. It can be seen that the Liao soldiers came from Shangjing all the way day and night, without resting except for changing horses.
Seeing this, Brother Yelu Xiu looked a little solemn. He quickly opened the urgent letter to the capital and checked it over in a hurry. He stared at Fuxingguan with a livid face. "The palace in Zhongjing has been lost... The royal family and descendants have joined forces to force the palace...
..." Brother Yelu Xiu growled, "You, Yang Dezheng, are still better."
Brother Yelvxiu looked ferocious for a long time before he finally became calm. He stared at Fuxing Pass and murmured in a low voice, "Yang Dezheng, this time your fate is good. I will let you go for now. One day, I will
The king will chop off your head and use it as a drinking vessel." "Send the order and the whole army will retreat. All soldiers and horses will follow the king back to the capital."
"Ah?!" The Liao soldiers carrying the horn felt that their brains were a bit out of control, and looked at a loss. Brother Yeluxiu roared: "Send the order, withdraw the troops." This time, Brother Yeluxiu's voice was loud, so he carried the horn.
The Liao soldiers at Niujiao heard this very clearly. Although he had many doubts in his heart, he did not dare to question Brother Yelvxiu's order.
He was just a pawn. He just felt a little regretful that he was suddenly given up on the must-win situation in front of him. However, he didn't know that in Brother Yelusiu's heart, Queen Mother Xiao's post was far more important than Fuxingguan.
The Liao Kingdom was vast and controlled no less territory than the Song Dynasty.
The power of such a huge empire is now in the hands of Empress Dowager Xiao and Brother Yelvxiu. Once Empress Dowager Xiao is successfully forced into the palace, his position as the king of the South Campus will probably be moved. Yang Dezheng only occupied it.
It was just a Shengzhou, and compared with the vast territory of the Liao Kingdom, it was really a drop in the bucket.
Brother Yelvxiu is extremely shrewd, so he would naturally not do anything that would cost him a fortune. External enemies are never the most terrifying because they are visible and tangible. Internal enemies are the most terrifying because they can see and touch them.
Invisible and intangible, he will always jump out and stab you at the critical moment, or hold you back.
"Woo~" The thick horn sound resounded in front of Fuxing Pass. The Liao army that had just approached Fuxing Pass did not have time to attack Fuxing Pass and receded like the tide. Those who had death aspirations or expressions on Fuxing Pass
The pale soldiers were stunned for a moment. Those Liao soldiers who were among the Han people in Liao were also stunned.
Yang Gui looked confused. Yang Qi and Yang Dezheng looked at each other. Yang Qi said in a low voice with a gloomy expression: "The Liao people's behavior is so abnormal? They actually let the revival pass without fighting? Could it be that Yang Peng's second
The Fourth Division's sneak attack was successful."
Yang Qi's words were full of uncertainty. Because no one dared to assert this matter when there was no news from Fan Long. Yang Gui said in a deep voice: "No matter whether Fan Long succeeds in the sneak attack or not, we will all
We must be more vigilant. Brother Yelvxiu is full of tricks and there is no guarantee that this will not be another of his tactics."
Yang Dezheng nodded solemnly, agreeing with Yang Gui's statement. So, three people, one old and two young, led tens of thousands of people and squatted nervously on the top of the city for a day and a night. As Yang Xin, who was not afraid of death,
He led a team of troops and quietly went to explore outside the city. After that, he sent back the news that the Liao people had really withdrawn their troops.
"The Liao army has really retreated~" Yang Xin led their men and horses, running wildly outside the city and shouting loudly. In an instant, there was a frenzy of noise on the top of the city. They won this battle. It was like hell.
The same torture also left them. The soldiers on the top of the city cheered and burst into tears. They hugged each other and asked for warmth from each other.
Yang Gui collapsed and sat on the ground. Yang Qi was so excited that his whole body was shaking. Yang Dezheng immediately ordered, "Reward the three armies." That night, the soldiers on the top of the city gathered together in small groups and worked all night long.
Reveling and roaring, venting each other's emotions. A whole roasted lamb or cow was carried across the city wall. At the end, only a plate of bones was left.
The soldiers were having a carnival. Yang Dezheng and others were not qualified to carnival. They gathered in the city gate building. There were roasted whole lambs and various foods on the table in front of them, and each person also had a jar of spirits on the table.
In the middle of the city gate building, there was a roasted golden cow. There was a scimitar stuck in the cow. However, in front of such a sumptuous meal, no one had the intention to take action. Instead, everyone sat in silence.
After a long while, Yang Qi broke the silence, "We won..."
Yang Gui echoed: "We won, and it was very difficult to win." Yang Xin said angrily: "Luckily we are all safe and sound." Yang Dezheng said in a low voice, expressionless: "This battle took nearly ten years of hard work.
Thousands of lives..."
Everyone subconsciously wanted to forget about the mountains of corpses outside the city. But it seemed like it had grown into their heads and could not be forgotten. Yang Qi smiled dryly and said: "Eat quickly. After eating, we still have a lot to do.
Deal with it. The soldiers can take a break, but we don’t have time to rest."
It was obviously a celebration banquet, but it ended quietly. In this battle, nearly 20,000 of the 70,000 soldiers at Fuxingguan were killed or wounded, and there were nearly 10,000 wounded in the barracks. The remaining healthy soldiers and horses,
Less than 40,000. The entire Fuxing infantry and Jin army suffered heavy casualties. It is not an exaggeration to describe the situation of Yang Dezheng as returning to the pre-liberation period after a night of revelry.
Yang Dezheng and his four men led the troops and began to deal with the beginning and the end. The first thing to deal with was the rescued Liao Han people. The fifth batch of Liao Han people, relying on the advantage of the ladder, climbed up from the top of the city for nearly three months.
More than 100,000 people.
Now they are all gathered in Guancheng, which has long been vacated. On the surrounding city walls and corridors, Fuxing infantry and Jin army officers, holding crossbows, stared at the more than 300,000 people in the city. These 300,000 people have been
I have been hungry for two days and one night.
Their strength to resist was basically gone. What Yang Dezheng had to do now was to eliminate the Liao soldiers and spies among the 300,000 Han people in Liao. Yang Dezheng walked down under the escort of personal guards led by Wang Xing and Peng Pai.
At the top of the city, the Han people in Liao were obviously frightened when they saw the fierce-looking soldiers around Yang Dezheng.
They gathered together subconsciously and looked at Yang Dezheng timidly. Yang Dezheng stared at these people and said: "You don't have to be afraid. Now that the Liao army has retreated, you are safe. Once you enter this city, you will also
It's like going home. In the future, this general will allocate land to you so that you can live and work in peace and contentment. Let you become as free people as the people of the Song Dynasty.
The reason why I am still trapping you and refuse to let you go is because there are many spies of the Liao soldiers among you. In order to ensure that you will not be threatened or coerced by the Liao people in the future, I will make this decision.
Stupid thing. Therefore, the Liao spies among you must be eliminated.
I, the general, believe that if you get rid of them, you will live more comfortably in the future." After saying this, Yang Dezheng ordered the people in the city gate to be divided into small teams of one hundred and one hundred people, and climbed to the top of the city for inspection.
During this process, many Liao soldiers lurking in the ranks of the Han people in Liao broke out and injured people, and they were all shot and killed by the soldiers and horses on the city. Yang Dezheng actually did not do anything, he just let these people board the city.
After wandering around for a while, they set up a few decent checkpoints on the top of the city. Then they invited these people to go up to the top of the city and wander around. The skin color of the Liao and Han people is almost the same, so the spies of the Liao army,
It's really difficult to find out without exposing yourself.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
