Outside the city wall, Zhao Yanxun stood up from his chair. Based on the system's perception ability, he knew that the overall situation was decided.
Seeing the defeat of the Ming army, Zhang Ziming had questions in his mind, is it really that simple to attack the city?
From the beginning of the war to now, it has not even taken half an hour, and the city wall has basically failed.
There is no doubt that Yong's army is powerful in combat, but what is that thunderous weapon?
Surprise and doubts intertwined in Zhang Ziming's mind. Experiencing this war as a bystander made him suffer a great impact.
At this moment, he seemed to be able to understand some of what Huang Tianyan said. This King Yong was really extraordinary.
Besides, on the city wall, two Qianhu are taking command.
The Ming army no longer had any large-scale resistance, and it was now time to finish.
"Send the order, seal the city gates, and clear out the defeated troops in the city!"
"Implement martial law in the city and announce that our army will take over the city..."
On the city wall, Fang Sheng and Wang Cheng issued orders to the hundreds of households in front of them. These were also preset.
Who is in charge of that city gate, who patrols that section of the city wall, who enforces security on the streets in that area...
"Also, the prince has an order, and there will be a heavy reward for catching Zhu Jinzhang, life or death!"
As long as the city gate is sealed, Zhu Jinzhang cannot escape at all, so his capture is inevitable.
Yong's army entered the city in large numbers and began to wipe out the remaining enemies in various places, and at the same time implemented martial law.
On the streets, people were panicking and hiding.
Among the rebels, ordinary people suffered the most because they had no ability to protect themselves.
The Yong army entered the city from the south, so the remaining soldiers of the Ming army who retreated all fled to the north.
They wanted to escape from Beicheng because they thought they would die if they were caught.
But the reality is that Zhao Yanxun sent people to defend outside the four gates of Liaoping. These people were quickly defeated after arriving at the north gate.
At this moment, in the center of the city, under the protection of Zhu Xiaoan, Zhu Jinzhang was also fleeing to the north.
At this moment, more than twenty remaining soldiers had gathered around the two of them.
They also thought about leaving the city to the north, but they saw broken troops coming from the opposite side.
"How is the situation in the north?" Zhu Xiaoan asked loudly.
"There are officers and soldiers in the north..."
After hearing this, Zhu Xiaoan said to Zhu Jinzhang behind him: "Brother, let's go to Xicheng!"
After saying this, Zhu Xiaoan did not wait for Zhu Jinzhang's answer, but took him and fled to the west city again.
At this moment, Zhu Jinzhang's heart was filled with despair, and he was like a zombie, being pulled by Zhu Xiao'an to flee in the city.
As they were fleeing, they heard someone shouting from the next street: "Everyone should stay in the house, no entry or exit, otherwise we will kill without mercy..."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiaoan and others knew that Yong's army was on the side, which meant that their current situation was very dangerous.
So they could only speed up their pace and leave here as quickly as possible.
But when they didn't go far, they heard a roar from behind: "There are people over there, they are bandits..."
This was when Yong's army came over. Zhu Xiaoan and others could only flee quickly. They really did not have the courage to fight.
"Brother, you go first, and we'll stop behind!"
Zhu Xiaoan was the first to stop, and then he slashed his sword in front of him. By the way, he also pulled a few people to resist with him. They were all descendants of the old Zhu family.
These people had done heinous things in Prince Xingyuan's palace and knew that they would die if they surrendered, so they were willing to fight to the death.
"kill……"
More than a dozen men from Yong's army rushed towards them. Zhu Xiaoan led five or six men to fight, while Zhu Jinzhang was trapped by the defeated troops and fled.
Although Zhu Xiaoan and others tried their best, they were at an absolute disadvantage, so they only resisted for more than ten seconds before they were all defeated.
"Who was that person just now?" The flag officer leading the team crouched down and looked at Zhu Xiaoan, who was struggling to squirm.
Zhu Xiaoan did not answer, his target was the knife on the ground in front of him.
"Is that person Zhu Jinzhang?" the flag official asked again.
Seeing that Zhu Xiaoan still didn't answer, the flag officer slashed at Zhu Xiaoan's neck, causing blood to pour out.
At this time, shouts came from the distance: "Those over there, go to the west street quickly, the bandits are counterattacking!"
"Brothers, kill the enemy!"
In the center of Liaoping Fucheng, Zhu Xiaoyong, with more than a hundred men, was fighting fiercely with Yong's army.
These people were the final organic force of the Ming army, specifically responsible for guarding the granaries.
"Kill..." Zhu Xiaoyong roared.
He was defeated at Tianma Castle before and had a long-standing grudge against Yong's army. This was the perfect time to take revenge.
At first, Zhu Xiaoyong was invincible due to the large number of people, but when reinforcements from the Yong Army gradually arrived, he and his men were trapped.
The final result was no surprise. He and his men were all surrounded and wiped out. Even if someone wanted to surrender, there was no chance.
"There are broken troops and people looting food in the North City. Go quickly for reinforcements..."
Zhu Xiaoyong and his party had just been annihilated here, and now the news came again, so the victorious soldiers quickly went north.
Along the way, broken troops could be seen everywhere, and people were fleeing in panic everywhere. The entire Liaoping City was in chaos.
The soldiers of the Yong army could only read the ban over and over again, and all the soldiers and civilians who did not comply with the ban were killed, in order to achieve the purpose of shock.
At this moment, there are at least 30,000 shi of grain stored in the Beicheng Granary, enough to feed more than 10,000 people in Liaoping City for three to four months.
But after Zhu Xiaoyong led his troops and left, people began to visit this important place one after another. The defeated soldiers and the people were willing to risk their lives for food.
The door of the grain depot was opened, and the people carried generations of grain and ran home as fast as possible.
People who steal food are mostly people who live near granaries.
When the Yong Army troops arrived, the situation was under control, and more than a dozen civilian corpses were placed on the scene.
The importance of the grain depot is self-evident. At this moment, Fang Sheng of Qianhu arrived here personally and stationed a hundred troops to guard it.
When Beicheng was under control, the situation in Liaoping Prefecture was basically under control, but at this moment Fang Sheng looked a little worried.
Because until now, no one has reported that Zhu Jinzhang was caught.
Inside the grain depot, Fang Sheng said to his hundreds of subordinates: "Beyond the four gates of Yuanyang, we have controlled it from the beginning, and there are cavalry cruising around the city. It is absolutely impossible for Zhu Jinzhang to escape!"
"So he must still be in the city!"
Glancing at the people in front of him, Fang Sheng said in a serious tone: "The whole search was conducted, and the defeated soldiers were tortured and tortured. Even if they dig three feet into the ground... you have to find Zhu Jinzhang for me!"
"Do you understand everything?"
"Understood!" several hundred households replied in unison.
"Go for it!"
Several hundred households then retreated, and Wang Cheng on the other side also issued the same order to his subordinates.
Zhu Jinzhang must be caught and must be caught.
Outside the south gate of Liaoping, Zhao Yanxun rode a horse and led his guards slowly towards the city gate.
At this moment he is a winner and even more a conqueror.
But he didn't feel much joy in his heart, because this was a matter of course.
Both sides of the road are guarded by Yong Army soldiers, making it absolutely safe.
Looking at the corpses on both sides of the road, Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but sigh: "One general's work can lead to thousands of bones being withered!"
Hearing this, Zhang Ziming, who was following behind, was quite touched.
