Chapter 18: The Fall of the Tang Kingdom

Wang Zixi was in the cave, and it was almost dawn, Wang Zixi said to the bandits, "You send these hundred beauties back to Baiyi City, and someone will reward you at that time, and there will be more than in Chang'an, so I can hold back, otherwise you will be punished by the Nine Clans, do you hear?"

"I heard it!" the bandits replied in unison, they didn't have to venture into Chang'an City to get a large amount of gold and silver, and the bandits were very happy.

"Won't General Wang go back with us?" Lu Yue asked Wang Zixi.

Wang Zixi took the Red Flame Heaven Killing Sword and said, "I still have something to do, I'm going to Chang'an City now, and I'll talk about it when I go back to Baiyi City." After speaking, he walked out of the cave and blended into Chang'an City.

"Tell the brothers to wait for me on the city wall, otherwise the ** attack will be empty of people and money, and when the ** is repulsed, we will carnival in Chang'an for three days. Wang Zixi casually grabbed a bandit and said.

Wang Zixi walked up to the city wall, and after an hour, more than 20,000 bandits poured in.

Wang Zixi looked at it, "Is there only such a few brothers left?"

The bandit next to him replied, "Well, the palace has been washed in blood, and most of the people in the city have been killed, and the emperor hasn't killed it yet, do you need to bring it?"

Wang Zixi signaled to bring the emperor over, and at this time, there were still about 70,000 ** under the city attacking the city.

"Brothers, hold on! As long as it is more than three days, ** will starve to death, and they went out of the city yesterday afternoon without food and grass. Wang Zixi said to the bandits on the city wall.

Don't look at the bandits usually two or three can kill a soldier, but they are outlaws, if the city is broken, how can more than 20,000 of them beat the well-trained defenders of the national capital, fortunately, the city wall of the capital of the Tang State is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus ** has not entered a grain of rice since yesterday afternoon, some are hungry, the combat effectiveness is not as good as before, and the attack has not hit the city wall many times.

** Beginning to retreat, the general defending the city rode a horse and planned to negotiate with Wang Zixi.

Under the city wall, he said to Wang Zixi, "Zongzheng, let our emperor go, otherwise I will chop you into meat sauce!"

The emperor of the Tang State looked at Wang Zixi, who took the Red Flame Sword to kill the sky, he had seen Zongzheng at the palace banquet, and looked at the burned tatters in the city, and the corpses were everywhere, he knew that this person was not Zongzheng, if it was sent by Zongzheng, he would not have been so massacre, after all, if he wanted to unify the Tang State, he would lose the hearts of the people if he did so.

"He's not Zongzheng! They are bandits! Most of the people in the city have died, and only one of them in the palace has survived! No matter how much money he wants, he must agree. The emperor shouted to the general guarding the city.

"If you don't go to another city, you'll starve to death! Quickly withdraw your troops and go somewhere else!" Wang Zixi finished speaking, and used the Red Flame Heaven Killing Sword to cut off the head of the emperor of the Tang State and throw it under the horse of the general who defended the city under the city.

"You wait for me, wait for me to go to the next city to eat, I want you to die without a place to be buried!" After speaking, the general who defended the city led the army to the next city.

"What should we do next?" a bandit asked Wang Zixi.

"They go to the city next door, it takes two days to go back and forth, you have seven thousand during the day, seven thousand at night to defend the city, and the rest are carnival in the city, if there is a** to attack, all go to the city to block **, Chang'an is the capital of a country after all, easy to defend and difficult to attack, wait for me to come back and make plans. After Wang Zixi finished speaking, he walked down the city wall, rode the horse that Zong Zheng had borrowed from him to travel thousands of miles a day, and rushed to Bai Yi City.

In Bai Yi City, Zong Zheng and Nasha were talking about how to rescue Lu Yue in the dormitory, they always thought that Lu Yue was hidden by Qin in Xianyang, the national capital, and Qin State just heard Tang Guo say that Lu Yue came to Qin State, and did not catch it, pretending to catch Lu Yue to deceive the hundred cities of Jin State. Unexpectedly, the Zongzheng Empire almost believed it.

"Otherwise, I'll take out a hundred cities to Qin Guo, as long as the imperial sister can come back. Nassa put her arm around Somasa's right arm.

Zong Zheng turned his head to look at Nasha and said, "The question is whether the imperial sister was captured by the Qin State?"

"Your Majesty, Weichen has something to play!" "Your Majesty, Wei Chen has something to play!" the voice of the chess prime minister Han Sai outside the door of the dormitory.

"Just say it at the door! No need to come in!" said Zongzheng to Han Sai outside the door.

"It's Your Majesty! The three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Han have all been taken, Marshal Lian Po, Marshal Wanyan Thunderbolt, and Marshal Xiahou Min have returned to the dynasty and are on the way, General Wang Zixi has taken Chang'an, the capital of Tang State, most of the people have been slaughtered, the palace is bloodbathed, the emperor of Tang has been killed, and Lord Lu Yue is also on the way back, it was General Wang Zixi who rescued him, and now General Wang Zixi is still resting in the post house. ”

"I know, stand down!" Zong Zheng finished speaking, and Han Sai left.

"Now you've got to face, Meatmeat. Jong Zheng put his arm around Nasha.

"I know, in a while, I will let Zhuge Ying bring 200,000 troops to the Tang and Qin borders to garrison, and then let Xiahou Min take 500,000 with your Marshal Wanyan and Marshal Lian Po to attack the territory of Tang State. Nasha looked up at Somasa.

"You know me. And I'm going to go to the post house now to find Wang Zixi, and get the Chiyan Heaven Killing Sword back, I'll go to Yelu Zhongyi, that guy was very powerful when he was in the Jin Kingdom before, how could he be beaten into a bad seed by 600,000 **?" Zong Zheng touched Nasha's nose.

Nasha said, "300,000 vs. 600,000, you think it's all the same as you! Yelu Zhongyi is very powerful, and now he has only lost 150,000, ** Although he has won a lot of cities, but there are only 400,000 left, our Zhuge Battalion of the Jin Kingdom took 300,000 to quell the rebellion of Shi Lushan 100,000, and only lost 50,000, I think it's okay, but you are quite smart, take the Tang State, I am afraid that the Qin State will take the opportunity to occupy the territory of the Tang State, and let me send the Zhuge Battalion to the Tang and Qin borders to guard, but I can't send troops and horses in vain, right? Counting the 500,000 troops of Xiahou Min who helped you attack the Tang Kingdom, I will give you a contribution in vain, and it is not easy for the hundred officials to deal with it!"

Zong Zheng stood up and began to write the holy decree.

Nasha put her arms around his waist from behind and pressed over "What are you writing about? ”

"Of course, let Wanyan Thunderbolt and Lian Po take the soldiers and horses to attack the Tang Kingdom, and now there are still 400,000 ** on the border to attack the city and plunder the land. I have to let Yelu Zhongyi know what war is, none of the 400,000 ** will be left, and I have already written another holy decree, when I am not there, you will be in charge of the affairs of the Zongzheng Empire, and you can also hand over everything to Prime Minister Han Sai, this guy is a workaholic, the more things he does, the happier he is. As for your troop expenses, I have already thought about it, and when I take the Tang State, I will give you half of the Qin State, which is equivalent to the current territory of the Tang State. "Zongzheng picked up the holy decree and let the soldiers at the door come in to announce it.

"Your ambition is really big, and you have to take the Qin State, it is difficult to enter the country without 150,000 troops, you should divide half of me, you can tell it, unless the two countries fight for the strength of the whole country, but one Liao State can take our two countries plus the current Tang Qin at that time, why bother?" Nasha kissed Zongzheng on the cheek from behind.

"The matter of attacking Qin, we will discuss it in the future, I will first go to the post station to find Wang Zixi to get the Chiyan Heaven Killing Sword and help Yelu Zhongyi annihilate 400,000 **, you stay in the palace, you don't need to send me." After speaking, Zong Zheng opened the door and left.

"Stay safe!" Nasha shouted from inside the house.

Yelu Zhongyi had just recaptured a city, and found that 400,000 ** were encamped not far from the city, and it seemed that he did not plan to fight a protracted war with him, so he wiped out his 150,000 army in one go, and then went to attack the city and plunder the land.

"Marshal, I just got the news, Your Majesty will arrive here tomorrow, and we will kill the enemy together in a while, Marshal Zhuge Ying of the Jin State has arrived at the border of Tang and Qin, to prevent the Qin State from taking the opportunity to plunder the city of the Tang State, and Marshal Lian Po of our country, Marshal Wanyan Thunderbolt each led 300,000 troops, and the troops attacked the territory of the Tang State in two ways, and Marshal Xiahou Min of the Jin State led 500,000 Jin troops to kill all the way into the territory of the Tang State. Now Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Kingdom, is like a ruin, I heard that it was attacked by a group of bandits, burning, killing, looting, smashing, looting, burning, and doing all kinds of evil, even the emperor of the Tang State who had just ascended the throne was killed by the bandit leader. "A general reported to Jeru.

"Weichen is incompetent, the three kingdoms of Qi, Chu and Han have been taken down, I haven't even taken a **, and I have lost twenty-one cities, sins, sins, Wanyan Thunderbolt once won Zhao State, Lian Po once won South Korea, only I have not made an inch, alas!" Yelu Zhongyi muttered to himself.

At noon the next day, Zongzheng walked into the city where Yelu Zhongyi was located with hundreds of carriages.

Yelu Zhongyi tied himself up and was sent to Zongzheng by the soldiers.

Zong Zheng put his hands behind his back, looked at Yelu Zhongyi, walked to the chair, and sat down.

"Marshal Yelu, what kind of madness is this?

Yelu Zhongyi looked at Zongzheng, "Two of the three marshals of the Zongzheng Empire have taken two countries, only I have achieved nothing, and Weichen is guilty of the crime, please punish Your Majesty severely." ”

Zong Zheng put the Red Flame Heaven Sword on the table and ordered the soldiers to help Yelu Zhongyi untie the rope.

"Alright, don't be a demon, let's stop the meeting. Take advantage of the current strong wind blowing towards **, and use the hundreds of carts of things I brought in for a while, you send 100,000 horses to kill from the left gate, and the front door to kill, the purpose is to let the **soldiers out of the camp tent, in sending 50,000 horses, from the right gate each to shoot ten bows and arrows with fire, so that the enemy camp is on fire, and then withdraw, light the dry wood I brought, the smoke will blow to the enemy camp, this is poison, **will definitely die, before killing the 100,000 soldiers and horses in the **military camp, responsible for staying away from the poisonous smoke,** When the soldiers escaped from the range of the poisonous smoke, they were immediately killed, not one was left, remember that none of the 400,000 surrendered this time, you should understand this sentence, right?

Jerod replied, "That's 400,000 lives......

Zong Zheng pulled out the Red Flame Sky Killing Sword, "Stop the war with war, they don't die, I don't know how many innocent people died from the sword during the siege." ”

According to what Zong Zheng said, after the two armies came out of the ** military camp, the poisonous smoke drifted to the ** military camp, and Zong Zheng smiled proudly.

Suddenly, about 200,000 people came out of one place, broke through the encirclement of Yelu Zhongyi's 100,000 army, and slashed towards the nearest city they occupied the Zongzheng Empire, Zongzheng ordered not to pursue, but to shoot arrows at ** who were still in the poisonous smoke, after a burst of ten thousand arrows, wait for the poisonous smoke to dissipate, and kill all the dying **, Zongzheng They retreated to the city.

"The monster will be incompetent, so that nearly 200,000 people escaped. Yelu Zhongyi smashed his left hand into a fist on his right hand.

Zong Zheng tilted his head, pondered for a while, and asked Yelu Zhongyi, "Who is the leader of the army?"

Yelu Zhongyi bowed to Zongzheng and said, "It's Yu Wenlong's son, named Yu Wendi, and Zhuge Wei, the first military division of the Tang State." ”

"Marshal Yelu has worked hard recently, I have heard of this Zhuge Wei, the fifth prince once said that my talent is about to catch up with Zhuge Wei. However, Marshal Yelu has insisted for so long, it can be regarded as embarrassing for you, but rest assured, the Tang Emperor is no longer there, I have asked General Wang Zixi to withdraw to the Zongzheng Empire, and now Xiahou Min, Wanyan Thunderbolt, Lian Po Three-Way Army of millions of men and horses are attacking the territory of Tang State, and now the 200,000 army of Yuwendi and Zhuge Wei is the only hope of Tang State, and finally meet the one who can compete. Zong Zheng looked at the Red Flame Heaven Slayer Sword on the table.

"Your Majesty, doesn't it have a good strategy for attacking the city?Then Zhuge Wei is resourceful, you have to be careful!" Yelu Zhongyi looked at Zongzheng.

Zong Zheng stood up with the Red Flame Heaven Killing Sword, and said, "Today we are also narrowly defeated, then Zhuge Wei didn't expect us to have this move, now the Jinyi City where they are located, must be strictly defended, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they are more than 200,000, we are 150,000, it is impossible to attack, unless ......"

Yelu Zhongyi hurriedly asked, "Unless what?"

Zong Zheng walked back and forth a few steps, and said to Yelu Zhongyi, "Unless you take it and kill Yuwendi, Zhuge Wei will be captured alive, there will be no marshal, no military division, 150,000 against 200,000, I am still sure of this." ”

Yelu Zhongyi scratched his head, "Didn't Your Majesty just now say that Zhuge Wei was here, and it was impossible to attack the city, how could Zhuge Wei be captured alive?"

"What worries me now is that I don't know where Zhuge Wei lives in the city, otherwise it would be easy to capture him. "Zongzheng walked around.

"I really know this, I have a habit of catching enemy soldiers to spy on the military, and not long ago a captive said that their marshal and military advisor live in the city lord's mansion. Yelu Zhongyi jumped up excitedly.

Zong Zheng happily patted Yelu Zhongyi's shoulder, " Great, Marshal Yelu, you sent four roads of men and horses, each road of 10,000 horses, respectively in the four gates of Jinyi City called the formation, Zhuge Wei must think that I was leading the snake out of the hole, must not move, then you send three hundred soldiers to find a place that can not be seen on the city wall, dig tunnels, dig all the way to the city, dig the tunnels to be able to 5,000 people enter the city within an hour, and wait until the night to let 5,000 people enter the city along the tunnel, quietly take the city lord's mansion, and arrest Zhuge Wei, Yuwendi is the same whether to catch it or not, if I am Zhuge Wei, I will do two things, either to prevent the enemy from attacking the city at night, or to attack the enemy camp at night, no matter which one he chooses, it will be unfavorable to our army, This matter of the tunnel is absolutely unexpected by him, go and prepare, if I want to see Zhuge Wei here, wait a minute, prevent Zhuge Wei from attacking at night, let 50,000 people guard the city at night, and you 100,000 people will ambush outside the city, once Zhuge Wei attacks at night, you will attack Jinyi City, everything must be guarded, go!" After Zong Zheng finished speaking, Yelu Zhongyi went to arrange these things.

Yelu Zhongyi walked to the barracks and said to himself, "It's all human heads, why didn't I think of this." ”

In the second half of the night, Yelu Zhongyi really caught Zhuge Wei in front of him, but he heard the sound of fighting in the city getting louder and louder.

"Zhuge Wei, you were captured by me, are you convinced?" Zong Zheng put the Red Flame Heaven Killing Sword on Zhuge Wei's neck.

Zhuge Wei smiled, "I really admire your authenticity, but unfortunately don't forget." I am also a military advisor, I have long bought a large number of people in the city, and today's night attack is the gate opened by the people, and the fighting outside the gate proves that you are almost finished!"

"Your Majesty! Jinyi City has just been taken, it is expected that our current city will not be able to hold on, ** will be killed in the city, why don't we go to Jinyi City first!"

"Let's retreat, take Zhuge Wei with us!" Zong Zheng finished speaking and left in a carriage.

When Zongzheng arrived in Jinyi City, he angrily muttered to himself, "Alas! I met an opponent, and in the end it became a swap city!"

At this time, Yelu Zhongyi walked in with Zhuge Wei, "Your Majesty, how to deal with this Zhuge Wei?"

Zong Zheng looked at Zhuge Wei angrily, "Do you know that your emperor of the Tang Kingdom has died, and has been burned by a group of bandits, and the entire capital of the country, Chang'an?

"So what? With my Zhuge Wei here, the restoration of the country is just around the corner!" Zhuge Wei tilted his head and didn't look at Zongzheng.

Nasha walked in at this time, "Idiot, you always make me worry, I thought you solved the **, just now."

I thought something had happened to you, the city where you were located was occupied, and I hurriedly asked the 400,000 troops I brought to capture the city, and now it can be completely wiped out!"

After hearing this, Zong Zheng hugged Nasha tightly and excitedly, "Meat, I am so happy to have you!"
