The wooden city gate of Chongzhou City, under the simultaneous bombardment of dozens of artillery pieces, finally turned into pieces and fell into the city gate hole!
In the blink of an eye, a 'Turkic' man waving a Turkic wolf flag rushed out of the city and rushed towards the wilderness to the east of Dalong's military camp.
Liu Mingzhi put down the telescope in his hand and waved to Song Qing: "Instruct the officers and soldiers of the three armies that all weapons except archers are not allowed to be unsheathed. Don't scare these Turkic soldiers, but they must be prepared to prepare for any unexpected events."
"Got the order!"
"Rong Rong, order your cavalry to take a detour, but don't get close to the Turks. You just need to surround them and prevent them from rushing out."
"Got the order!"
"Cheng Kai, Baoyu, and Han Peng listened to the order, and you divided them into separate groups, confiscated their horses and weapons, divided them into three places for custody, and gathered them into the rear army for proper placement. Place them together with yesterday's Turkic prisoners.
, free up our own troops and let these soldiers take care of their own wounded soldiers."
"The last general takes command!"
"Tang Ru obeys the order!"
"The end is here!"
"Instruct the Huotou Army to make fire and make food for these Turkic soldiers. Remember not to torture or beat them, but the amount of food they eat cannot exceed one-third of our own soldiers."
"As for humans, once they eat too much, they will inevitably get into trouble. You can't let them eat too much without abusing them!"
"The general understands."
In less than half a day, tens of thousands of Turkic tribesmen rushed out from the two city gates. After leaving the city, the Turks saw that the dragon soldiers and horses outside the city really had no intention of attacking them, so they breathed a sigh of relief.
.
Slowly they gathered towards the 'Turks' who were leaving the city holding the wolf flag.
People have a herd mentality, and more and more Turks gathered in the wilderness to the east of the military camp. The Turks, who were in their early 11,000s, saw Cheng Kai and the others riding towards him and others with hundreds of soldiers.
Only then did I completely believe that Dalong's enemy army really accepted my surrender, instead of deliberately deceiving myself and others to come out of the city to kill them.
"I am under the command of Grand Marshal Liu Mingzhi of the army in the middle of Dalong Road, and General Cheng Kai of the trapped army. Congratulations to you for choosing a way to survive by abandoning darkness and turning to the light!"
"Now, I, the general, order you to stand up, dismount, put down your swords, and form a spontaneous formation. I, the general, accept your surrender on behalf of the commander-in-chief, Liu Mingzhi!"
"Now you listen to me, General..."
The personal guards around Cheng Kai who knew Turkic language held up their flags and rode up to attack, repeating Cheng Kai's words just now.
After a long time, when the first "Turk" dismounted and put down his weapon, more than 10,000 Turks followed suit.
When the sun was high in the sky, Cheng Kai and others commanded more than 10,000 surrendered Turkic soldiers to assemble in three groups towards the rear army. These more than 10,000 Turkic soldiers were not noticed, and hundreds of brothers escaped quietly.
The team hid towards the military camp.
"Report to the commander-in-chief that all the Turkic soldiers have been arranged according to your order. The total number of surrendered soldiers is 11,622."
Liu Mingzhi took the military register handed over by Song Qing, glanced at it, and threw it on the table beside him, his brows twitching slightly.
"There are more than 11,000 people, and it seems that there are still several thousand determined Turks who have not left the city to surrender!"
"It doesn't matter, the opportunity has been given to them. I can't stop those who seek their own death!"
One after another, all the generals rushed back and gathered around Young Master Liu.
"What do you think the expressions of Baishan Guan and the others are like at Wochitai in the city now?"
"You should be furious!"
"The general guesses that he is very angry."
"It may also be like mourning a heir."
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and picked up the flag on the table and held it in his hand.
"Jiang Lei!"
"The end is here!"
"The original plan was to bombard Chongzhou."
"I will retire at the end of my order."
"Everyone will obey the order."
"We obey orders!"
"The sound of artillery is over, leaving 10,000 cavalry to guard the Turkic soldiers, while the remaining troops attack the city!"
"Got the order!"
In Chongzhou City, the expressions of Bai Shanguan, Wo Chitai and other generals were just as Cheng Kai and others said. They all looked at the main street where only a few thousand Turkic soldiers and horses were left, as if they were mourning for their heirs.
"General Wo Chitai, what is going on? Why did it happen in just half a day..."
Wo Chitai glanced feebly at the few remaining Turks, whose eyes were firm but could not block the panic, and sighed heavily.
"The army was defeated like a mountain. How could Wo Chitai have the dignity to meet the Great Khan!"
"Why don't you order the execution of those who are cowardly, fearful of death, and deceive others with their monstrous talk?"
"When hundreds of people came out, I didn't have time to react. The morale of the brothers was already unstable. Anyone who took the lead would cause chaos. What's more, when hundreds of people came out at once, in just half a month...
....."
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
The roar of artillery suddenly sounded outside the city, which shocked the others, who were originally in a low mood, and subconsciously looked outside the city.
There were no soldiers and horses on the city wall. How could Dalong's enemy army waste artillery shells on Chongzhou City?
However, before they could think about it carefully, the explosions around them told them a clear fact.
Dalong's artillery was not bombarding the city wall, but the soldiers and horses in Chongzhou City.
Bai Shanguan watched in astonishment at the soldiers running around looking for shelter from the artillery fire. He fixed his gaze on the civilian courtyard where the flames shot into the sky after the explosion and trembled.
"How dare Liu Mingzhi...how dare he...doesn't he care about the lives of tens of thousands of Dalong people in the city?"
"Brother Baishan, Liu Mingzhi never plays his cards according to common sense. Don't worry about it now. Let's quickly organize the soldiers. If you run around like this, you will lose many lives in vain!"
"Yes, yes, we must first organize the soldiers to avoid artillery fire!"
"Generals, obey the order!"
"We obey orders!"
"Hurry up and gather your brothers under your command, tell them not to run around, follow your orders to avoid the artillery fire, and prepare to defend the city as soon as the artillery fire stops. Liu Mingzhi is crazy, he is crazy!"
"We'll have to wait..."
"Rumble..."
"Kill!"
The roaring sound of artillery could not cover up the sudden sound of war drums outside the city and the sound of killing people rushing into the sky. The sound of hundreds of thousands of men had already drowned out the explosion of hundreds of artillery pieces.
Bai Shanguan's body trembled, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Our own soldiers in the city were torn apart by artillery fire. Before they had time to unite to defend the city, more than 100,000 dragon soldiers and horses who had already been deployed rushed in. Bai Shanguan knew the result without even thinking about it.
I never thought that Liu Mingzhi would extend the artillery fire into the city wall, let alone that he would seize the opportunity so accurately.
When the first willow-shaped handsome flag rushed into the city gate, the artillery outside the city suddenly went silent, leaving only the killing shouts of the dragon soldiers.
More than 40,000 soldiers and horses who were bombarded by artillery were running around without any formation. Facing more than 100,000 soldiers and horses who had been prepared for a long time, the outcome of the war could be imagined.
The sun rising in the sky gradually turned into the setting sun.
There were loud shouts of people surrendering their weapons and refusing to kill, and the big dragon flag and Liu Zishuai flag were hung again on Chongzhou City.
In Song Qing Dynasty, Cheng Kai and others held bloody swords and looked at Bai Shanguan and other generals who were tightly tied up with ropes. They looked up at the flags flying in the wind on the city wall and looked at each other.
How could Chongzhou be recaptured so easily? I always felt that I had not exerted any effort, so why did I regain Chongzhou in such a confused manner?
Outside the city, Liu Mingzhi put down the tea cup in his hand and stood up and walked towards his mount, glancing at Du Yu and others who were smiling happily.
"Command brothers, break camp and enter the city!"
"Take orders!"
Gumo Rongrong followed closely behind, and after getting on the horse, the look of confusion on Gumo Rongrong's pretty face was self-evident.
"Commander...Brother Liu, the Jin Guo Fei Xiong Wei Shao in the city must have had 40,000 soldiers, and they are all elite troops. They captured the city in just half a day. How does Rongrong feel?
It’s like a dream!”
"Even if there are 40,000 pigs, it will take a day to kill them!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Gu Mo Rongrong with a faint smile, and tapped his chest with his finger.
"understand?"
Aunt Mo Rongrong lowered her head and pondered for a moment and looked at Mr. Liu with understanding.
"Brother is talking about the human heart?"
"Of course!"
"A military defeat is like a mountain falling, and what remains is also doomed."
"Others can kill you easily, but you have no power to fight back. No one wants to die in vain even though they know there is still a glimmer of hope."
"Except Duan Can'an and those idiots who broke the Lu Army, they are so stupid. If there is an afterlife, I will have to train them to death!"
"Damn it, we promised to live and die together, but they are so stupid and don't keep their word!"
"You villain! You don't keep your word!"
Aunt Mo Rongrong was startled, and saw the way Young Master Liu was cursing, but his eyes were flashing with the mist of the setting sun. She immediately understood that although Young Master Liu was cursing Duan Can't bear them, he felt the worst in his heart.
one person.
Perhaps only Liu Mingzhi knows how much sorrow and pain he feels in his heart!
Liu Mingzhi raised the wine bag on his horse and took a swig.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about how happy we are. We can retake the city in four days. At least my brother doesn't have to smash it and make it a feast for you!"
Aunt Mo Rongrong looked at Mr. Liu blankly, and nodded half-understanding.
"That's not right. Brother Song quietly told me that day that if Rongrong wants to eat it, it doesn't have to be made into a side dish. He also said that Rongrong is the only brother in the army who has the honor to eat it from you."
Gumo Rongrong smacked her lips a few times, rubbed her white teeth, and looked at Young Master Liu in confusion.
"Did we, the people from the Western Regions, turn into man-eating demons when it comes to you?"
"Rumors are scary, Rongrong knows, but this is too scary!"
"It's nothing more than confusing right and wrong!"
