"Hey, how come it's so fast?" Luo Hao's face turned gray. He wanted to fight desperately before, but now, his mood is completely different. He was attacked on both sides, and on the other side he was an elite cavalry. What the hell was he trying to do?
No matter what, Aqige would not have the slightest mercy. Seeing that the infantry had arrived, he immediately ordered, "Order the troops and horses to kill them, but please tell me, this time we will mainly drive them away and make a detour."
Harassment, stop intersecting and cutting."
"Um? Princess, what do you mean?" The deputy general was quite puzzled. Is there any reason to let out the fat in his mouth? Aqige gripped the riding crop tightly, knocked the palm of her hand, and looked into the distance with a slight smile.
, "We have already reaped a lot of benefits from Manchuanli. You have to be content and content. Let's give the credit here to others. It's not good to be too greedy."
In fact, Aqige understood Shang Kexi's mood very well. Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming and others came from Liaodong and urgently needed military merit to prove themselves. On the contrary, Aqige herself really didn't need any military merit. With her
Even if she has no merit at all due to her status, no one dares to look down upon her.
This time the cavalry did not form a chain of horses, but the impact and scattering were enough to bear the rogues. The infantry from the south quickly formed a formation to meet them. Thousands of remnants of the peasant army only resisted for a moment and then began to rout.
Luo Hao is very brave, but those ordinary peasant soldiers are different. Their morale is low and they have no hope in the so-called Grand Duke. In despair, who is willing to fight for their lives? What beautiful dreams have nothing to do with them?
Relationships and military exploits are very tempting, but everything is based on survival. If your life is gone, everything is gone. At this time, you are in a desperate situation. Many people no longer have that kind of fantasy. They are more thinking about saving their lives and going home to be a
Ordinary farmers.
The first one to surrender was quickly followed by the second one. Under attack from two sides, the bandits resisted for a moment before surrendering in droves. This trend was like a plague, and Zhao Lin could not stop it.
Haogeng couldn't stop it.
Zhao Lin and others could not escape the fate of being killed. With Zhao Lin and others killed in the battle, the rogue bandits in Tianzhu Mountain collapsed. Since then, the biggest hidden danger in the entire Shangluo area has been eradicated, and the battle for northern Shaanxi has completely become clear.
On the eighth day after the annihilation of southern Shijiapo, Aqige and others led their troops back to the east of Yichuan City, where they joined the troops led by Wang Zuogao. The 100,000-strong army reorganized into a powerful formation and marched towards Yichuan City.
Sichuan City rolled over.
For many ordinary people, they only knew that the officers and soldiers were fighting, but they did not know how disparate this war was. Zhang Xianzhong was hunched over, coughing from time to time under the oil lamp, and it only lasted more than ten days.
, Zhang Xianzhong, a bandit who once roamed northern Shaanxi, became old and seemed to be terminally ill.
Zhang Xianzhong is still working hard. Even if this is a war with no suspense, he still does his best to obey fate.
On this day, the color of grass fills the entire earth, and Yichuan is like a soft and charming woman, showing her beauty. The gentle breeze blows a few wild flowers, white clouds are lingering in the distance, and the blue sky covers the surrounding areas like a dome, looking everywhere
, a few goats ate fresh grass leisurely. What a beautiful highland grassland, what a peaceful wilderness. However, under the distant horizon, a black tide surged in, the sun shone, and there was a piece of silver that made people feel alive all over.
Han. Several shepherds saw the endless tide and stared blankly, even forgetting the time. This scene was fixed here.
What was supposed to come would eventually come. The city walls of Yichuan City were crowded with peasant soldiers. They knew that the officers and soldiers would definitely fight, but when this scene came, they were still frightened.
The endless black tide, the trembling cavalry, how many people there are, it’s hard to count, in short, there are many, many, many, and the momentum is as strong as the ages, swallowing mountains and rivers. This world seems to be held in the hands of boundless officers and soldiers, those black
The infantry soldiers did not shout loudly, but their high chests and cold eyes showed their confidence and arrogance. Somehow, every peasant soldier had a feeling that the officers and soldiers did not take this city seriously.
thing.
Yes, with so many soldiers and horses, like ants, they can't see the horizon for hundreds of miles, so how could they take Yichuan City seriously? What they want is the whole of northern Shaanxi, and what they want is the vast land.
A city wall made of bluestones, from a distance, looks like a huge boulder standing in the green grass. Each piece of bluestone has experienced many winds and rains, and the years have left traces of vicissitudes here. An ancient city, even
It is older than Xi'an City. Yichuan City has carried thousands of years of civilization in northern Shaanxi, but now it is under the control of rogue bandits.
On a high slope, Tie Mo sat on the soft grass and looked at the beautiful and ancient city in the distance. The city was not only beautiful, but also tall, majestic and majestic. Under the sky, it had a proud posture.
Elizabeth put on a military uniform. Although it was a little short, her heroic demeanor was a bit more gentle. Looking at the city of Yichuan in front of her, Elizabeth could not hide her wonder. What a beautiful city, at least she had never seen anything like this in Tsarist Russia.
place. Looking at the large camp stretching for hundreds of miles in the distance, I was even more amazed. A hundred thousand troops, what kind of pride is this. In Tsarist Russia, the so-called battle of thousands of people was nothing compared to the officers and soldiers.
.
At this moment, Elizabeth really felt the gap. The mysterious Eastern Empire and Tsarist Russia were not countries on the same level at all. There were many things that you would never understand without seeing them with your own eyes.
At some point, Wang Zuoguan, Zhou Dingshan and others came to the high slope. There were more than a dozen people, except Wang Zuoguan, the others were all wearing military uniforms with swords hanging on their waists, looking majestic. Especially Zhou Dingshan and Geng Zhongming, who looked dignified.
Their every move showed a murderous spirit. Facing this fortified city in northern Shaanxi, they had no doubts, only confidence. When a hundred thousand troops broke through, it was like a tide of crushing force.
"Supervisor, the sons of Bashu are ready. I don't know which one should be sent to attack the city first?" Qin Liangyu said seriously. Qin Liangyu also had selfish motives for doing this. Since the elite border troops were all there, Qin Liangyu didn't have many opportunities behind her.
She must seize the few opportunities to gain enough credit.
Qin Liangyu needs to fight a good fight to further establish his prestige. This is not only for himself, but also for the thousands of Bashu elders.
Aqige and others were naturally not happy. Attacking Yichuan City was a good job. As long as they could win it, it would be a great achievement. Only Zhou Dingshan remained silent and stood coldly at Tie Mo like a guard.
By his side. In fact, Zhou Dingshan did not refuse to fight, but he understood in his heart that the supervisor and others had already decided how to fight this battle. It was useless to fight at this time. As expected, Hai Lanzhu was wrapped in
The cloak seemed like how cold the weather was. "Okay, there's no need to fight. Everyone has a share in the attack on Yichuan City. However, Yichuan City has high walls and thick walls, and there are many rolling stones stored in the city. There is sufficient food and grass, and the number of troops is small."
Quite a few. If we attack by force, we will probably lose a lot of money, which is not a good thing for us. Therefore, we have discussed with the supervisor before that we will not attack by force in the early stage, but focus on siege and shock. Geng Zhongming, Chen Yaofeng, you guys will start from
Starting from tomorrow, the troops will be organized into groups of a thousand people and dispersed to clear out the forces around Yichuan City. In short, no rogue forces are allowed within a fifty-mile radius of Yichuan City. This place must be completely transformed.
It became an isolated city."
Aqige and others were a little unhappy, but they did not dare to disobey the military order. Hai Lanzhu looked at Qin Liangyu thoughtfully, and continued with a smile, "General Qin, please stop staring at Yichuan City. Tomorrow you will
Just reorganize all the ministries and station them northwest of Yichuan City, and Zhou Dingshan's cavalry will also go with them."
Qin Liangyu was in a daze for a moment. Aqige and the others had been sent elsewhere. Why couldn't even she, Qin Liangyu, get the task of attacking Yichuan City? Stationed in the northwest, there seemed to be no benefit. In this case, rogue bandits would not
What kind of reinforcements would be sent? However, Qin Liangyu knew Hai Lanzhu's character well. After thinking about it, he could only nod in agreement. Zhou Dingshan would not have any objections. He knew that Hai Lanzhu was just relaying the words of the supervisor.
Under the threat of hundreds of thousands of troops, the soldiers and civilians in Yichuan City were in panic. The huge military camp outside the city was so overwhelming that people could hardly breathe. Faced with such a large number of troops, many people simply lost confidence. Suddenly there were hundreds of thousands of people.
A human war has never happened since Wang Jiayin and Wu Yangui started fighting in northern Shaanxi.
They were cautiously on guard, but the officers and soldiers did not attack. On the second day, more than 100,000 officers and soldiers finally took action. First, many cavalry bypassed the city, and then a large number of soldiers and horses dispersed, but no troops were sent to attack Yichuan.
City. Zhang Xianzhong finally recovered a little. He originally wanted to stand at the top of the city to boost morale and organize the defense of the city. As a result, the officers and soldiers did something completely unconventional. But the more this happened, the more people felt panicked. Then
This invisible pressure tortured the soldiers and civilians in the city very uncomfortable. Soon, Zhang Xianzhong knew what the officers and soldiers wanted to do. Looking at the thick smoke in the distance, he knew that some scattered troops outside the city had been poisoned.
The town of Baxianzhuang has more than 2,000 residents. Such a population is considered a very large town in northern Shaanxi. At this time of the day, the town of Baxianzhuang suffered a military disaster. Countless black-armored soldiers broke into the town and killed many young people.
Zhuang and the blacksmith were all invited to leave, and a strict order was issued. If anyone dared to help Yichuan City, his whole family would be killed. The officers and soldiers swept through the town with a domineering attitude, but the bandits had no temper at all. In fact, after the military chaos and the forced recruitment of soldiers by the bandits,
, there are not many young people left in the town, and after being caught by the officers and soldiers, only the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are left. This move was thought up by Wang Zuoguan. This move cuts the bottom of the pot, scares and bluffs, and is considered a sure thing.
The foundation for the survival of Yichuan City.
The young and strong peasant soldiers who were captured were not idle either. They were all thrown to dig piles of soil outside Yichuan City. What pleased these young and strong prisoners was that the attitude of the officers and soldiers was quite docile. As long as they worked hard, they would not fight.
Instead of scolding, they were given food at meal time. Eating fragrant rice and serving vegetables, the life was more comfortable than usual. Gradually, the young and strong people no longer complained and became more energetic in their work.
Qian Qingzhuang, a prisoner, dug a hole and piled earth outside the city. Two days later, a mound of earth about one foot high was piled a dozen feet south of Yichuan City. Although it was not high, it could not withstand the mound, which slowly grew taller.
.
Zhang Xianzhong saw this in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. He finally understood what the officers and soldiers were going to do. They wanted to slowly build a small mountain of earth, condescendingly, and slowly consume the city of Yichuan. Zhang Xianzhong never thought that he would face such a situation.
, in order to cope with the siege by the officers and soldiers, he prepared many means of defending the city such as kerosene, stones, etc., but in the end they were all useless. Once the mountains of earth were piled up by the officers and soldiers, and with the geographical advantage, with the trebuchets and firearms of the officers and soldiers,
advantage, how much of Yichuan City’s defensive advantage is left?
Rogue, Zhang Xianzhong thought for a long time and only came up with this word. A hundred thousand troops, such a huge advantage, could crush Yichuan City like crabs, but in the end they played this kind of siege style. Looking at the city
The mountains of earth slowly formed outside, and the faces of the peasant soldiers on top of the city also turned earthy. Every inch higher the mountain of earth made the soldiers' hearts collapse a little. This was simply inhuman torture.
However, they are not within the shooting range. Besides, those who are working are ordinary rebel brothers. Can we attack them? Originally, there were many people in Yichuan City who maintained some confidence in defending the city, but as
Regarding the situation outside the city, these people also began to waver.
Sometimes Tie Mo had to admire Wang Zuoguan. This high-ranking official had an appalling grasp of people's hearts. This trick to attack people's hearts was simply vicious. Watching the mountains outside the city forming little by little, it happened that
There was nothing to do. It felt like a fat pig waiting for the butcher's knife to fall. The psychological torture can drive people crazy. On the third day, some peasant soldiers couldn't stand it any more. They scratched the battlements and cursed, "Courageless bandits."
, if you have the ability, come and attack the city. Grandpa wants you to look good. Hey...you, it's you...Peng San, what are you doing, why are you helping the officers and soldiers, do you want to kill people?"
The young man named Peng San looked back at the top of the city. He didn't know who was shouting, but he still stopped what he was doing, propped up his shovel and shouted, "What are you talking about? We are hindering you from our work."
What's the matter? I told you a long time ago, don't work hard for Zhang. Come out quickly and help with the work. Even if you pile up dirt, you won't be tired. There will be enough rice and vegetables for every meal, and you will get wages every day."
"I...fuck" the peasant soldier with an angry look on his face almost fell from the top of the city. Unexpectedly, he almost instigated Peng San to rebel. Good guy, one meal has enough rice and vegetables.
With wages, this is fucking better than being a soldier. Zhang Xianzhong's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He felt that the young men outside the city were simply a bunch of cancer, more terrifying than the plague.
Zhang Xianzhong felt that he had to find a way to kill these scum. Otherwise, if they were allowed to run amok, the garrison in the city would collapse sooner or later. It is estimated that after half a month, let alone desperate efforts, whether they can pick up the knife is another matter.
.If you eat well and get paid, are you still a prisoner?
