Chapter 449 Driving the people to burn grain
The news that the night demon army invaded the Eastern Wilderness and attacked the Huizhou Islands made the people and merchants of the surrounding hundreds of miles frightened.
But before the night demon army reached Yangye City, it was hundreds of thousands of troops that were said to come from the Heavenly Demon Country, swept in from the east.
Then the Heavenly Demon Army began to attack the city and plunder the land everywhere, and drove the people of more than ten nearby cities to the west inland. The Yang Ye City Lord was naturally reluctant, but this strong army only took a day to break through the city and kill the city lord.
And those heavenly demon soldiers even broke into his horse farm, and requisitioned all the horses and vehicles, the young and strong walked on their own, and the old and weak all rode west.
Secretly clenched his fist in annoyance, and a firelight in the distance suddenly reflected his field of vision, as the cloud chariot approached. The raging fire is more and more dazzling. Flame moxibustion people, half a mile away, can feel the heat wave, but it doesn't make people feel half of the warmth.
Next to the fire, there are mountains of grain, even if they are driven away by the soldiers of the Heavenly Demon Army, there are many people who are unwilling to leave their homeland easily.
The people of the demon kingdom did not use force in this day, but they snatched all the food of the stubborn people and burned it. Only leave half a month's food, if you don't leave, you can survive hunger, then it's up to you.
The same happened to him, when he thought that the six granaries with a scale of 100,000 stones he operated had now turned to ashes, he felt inexplicable heartache. At this time, far away, it can be seen that many people are crying loudly, and there is no shortage of scolding.
The more than 100 demon clan armor soldiers beside the fire were indifferent, still standing there expressionlessly, holding sharp blades in their hands, preventing these people from approaching.
"Phew! a group of guys who are greedy for life and afraid of death, why don't you fight with them?" spit on the ground again, and the middle-aged man in the brocade robe felt even more hateful, but he only dared to say these words. Although there were more than 1,000 private people at the beginning, they still didn't dare to resist.
The demon clan armor of the Heavenly Demon Country is ruthless to the human race, as long as someone makes a move, the counterattack will definitely be extremely fierce. Along the way, he had seen several examples, all of which were the destruction of the clan and the death of the family, which made him very happy.
The next moment, his eyelids suddenly jumped, and he felt dozens of Dawson's cold gazes, and they all looked at him, frowning, the brocade robe is middle-aged and doesn't need to look at it, he knows what is going on.
Those were those people who had returned from Lianyun Island in Huizhou! At the beginning, the lord of Yangye City wanted to be requisitioned and strong, and it was said that he was going to be sent to the east to do hard labor for several years, and the salary was good.
As a giant businessman, he naturally knows what is going on. Because of the thousands of servants in the racecourse, more than 100 places were also allocated. At that time, he pretended not to know, and some surnames in the family were unconvincing
The servant who was in charge sent it over.
I didn't expect these people to come back.
Is this what wants his life?
The middle-aged man in the brocade robe sneered, but in the end he still retracted his head back into the carriage.
Then I heard a voice trembling and saying: "In this heavenly demon country, the remnants of the people have gone against the grain! How can such a tyrant not be punished by heaven? I should send a letter to my colleagues in the past, and ask the emperor of Dashang to raise an army to fight and set things right! Is it a curse that we have no virtue to let such a tyrant be born into the world? ”
Following the prestige, I saw an embarrassed old Confucian, chattering there.
The middle-aged man in the brocade robe sneered slightly, knowing that this person was a student of the Great Confucian of Middle Earth, and it was said that he had also been a showman.
Over the years, this person has accepted countless students, but Yangye City has not seen any changes. On the contrary, it is the family that is getting more and more abundant. So far, he has naturally paid all the water and sympathized with him.
That Heavenly Demon Kingdom Demon Monarch is naturally a tyrant. But if you want the Great Shang Emperor to send troops to fight, it is also wishful thinking.
Shaking his head, the middle-aged man in the brocade robe frowned, and then sighed.
Now it depends on whether the big countries in the west can stop it.
More than a month ago, when the 300,000 troops of the Heavenly Demon Kingdom came from the east. I didn't care about it, but I didn't expect that in the end, it was a sweep.
From east to west, there are dozens of battles large and small, and every battle must be won. The autumn wind swept away the leaves, occupied the land of the two counties, and coerced the surrender of troops, numbering more than one million.
The lord of the cities of Huizhou didn't care at first, and then panicked at the end. From the previous separate work, to the current cooperation.
It's just that up to now, it has not been able to stop its troops, and it is still in retreat.
Yangye City was breached due to the defeat of the coalition army.
There are also many people who are looking forward to the arrival of the Huizhou faction. What is alarming is that not only now, but there is no trace of these sectarians. Even his family members are nowhere to be found.
At this time, to the west, there were already two million coalition troops. It's just that in his opinion, there are not many ways to win.
"Lu Tianxing!"
muttering the name, the brocade robe sighed heavily, frowning silently.
At this time, the person in command of the Heavenly Demon Kingdom is said to be named Qin Lan, and his reputation in the Heavenly Dragon Empire is extremely high.
But the one he remembers the most is still this one.
This person should be the former commander of the Heavenly Demon Kingdom, and most of the battles in the rest of the month were written by this person.
Every time a small number of people is better, 150,000 people under his command, everywhere they go, they are invincible.
That was the battle in which the city lord of Yangye City was defeated, and he had seen it with his own eyes.
At that time, I felt that my mind was all taken by it, especially the 20,000 swordsmen wearing red armor and 20,000 crossbowmen, urging the edge to be sharp, and it was simply and neatly shocking.
An army of 500,000 was defeated by three drums, lost its armor and lost tens of thousands.
It is precisely because of this that when the grain and grass at home were burned, there was no resistance at all.
And now the land of the three counties has been breached, although there are still a million coalition troops in the west. That's always been in him, but I'm afraid that most of them will still lose.
It is said that it should be frustrated, but in this heart, for some reason, there is a hint of schadenfreude.
Lao Tzu's family business is ruined, how can you be alone?
At this time, Lu Tianxing didn't know that anyone would still have such dark thoughts when thinking about him.
At this time, he was frowning and looked in front of him.
I saw countless tents, densely packed, scattered on the hills in the distance.
Based on the calculation of six people in one account, there are at least 500,000 troops in this company camp.
The army of Huizhou is not as unbearable as the world thinks. After all, it is a war here for many years, and only the strong can survive.
In his opinion, the warriors here are much stronger than the soldiers and horses in the hinterland of the Great Shang.
Naturally, only these 500,000 people, if in normal times, they are not in his eyes.
But at this moment, I saw a deep ditch and a high base, ten steps and a bow, and three steps and a crossbow. The whole camp is like a hedgehog.
For two whole days, these 500,000 coalition troops stuck here, never going out lightly, and not giving him a chance.
Even with Lu Tianxing's calmness, he couldn't help but get anxious,
I don't know what the situation is on your side, can you hold it?
If the prediction is correct, the decisive battle of the Qixia Mountain Range must be just around the corner!
If we delay here any longer, I'm afraid it's really too late.
Lu Tianxing's gaze looked to the left. I saw 20,000 swordsmen in red and heavy armor, and 20,000 armorers holding crosses, lined up in a strict line.
The clothes and armor are neat, but they give people a strong bloody atmosphere. The bright red armor looked like blood. It is to go through more than a dozen battles, kill millions, and be invincible. Only then did I develop such an invincible domineering and murderous aura.
This is the newly established Tiangang Sword Pawn of the Heavenly Demon Country, as well as the Tiangang Red Warrior.
He also didn't expect that An Mingxi would throw this elite, which was only inferior to the Blood Cloud Rider, to himself.
However, at that time, the so-called elite soldiers in these four towns were loose and crumbling, and they were useless except for morale.
To be able to temper the army of these four towns into what it is now in just two months is soaked in his hard work.
If you use this Tiangang sword to break through, you will definitely be able to break this company camp!
But in that case, the elite soldiers under his command will definitely be killed and wounded.
The meaning of Guan An Mingxi seems to have a lot of expectations for it. If the casualties are too heavy, I am afraid that it will not be what they intended.
Thinking in his heart, Lu Tianxing thought about Zhang Huai again.
When he assigned the army of the Western Expedition, although An Mingxi appointed Qin Lan as the commander, he transferred his junior brother Zhang Huai to Huizhou as his deputy.
This move won his heart, and Qin Lan must be extremely brave every time he fights.
But to command a large army, conquer cities, and resist millions of enemies, it is not his strength.
With Zhang Huai on the side, he made suggestions and planned on his behalf, which made people feel at ease.
The same is true of these sayings. Qin Lan, as the commander, was more like a striker than him, the former army commander, all the way to the west regardless of the onslaught.
On the contrary, Zhang Huai was behind and coordinated the battle.
But just half a day ago, this guy said that he wanted to persuade these people of Huizhou to surrender with his incorruptible tongue. Then, despite the dissuasion, he ran alone to the company camp opposite, and he didn't know what was going on.
Riding his horse and standing, Lu Tianxing closed his eyes slightly, waiting quietly.
Quietly, half an hour passed, but there was still no sound in the company camp opposite.
Lu Tianxing couldn't help but open his eyes, with a hint of worry in his eyes. He couldn't be more clear about his junior brother's ability. Even if you can't really convince those city lords to change their banners, you can still get out of the way.
It's just that there is not much time now, and if it is another hour, Zhang Huai has not returned. Then he has to prepare for a strong attack.
There was a sudden sound of horses' hooves like thunder in his ears, and Lu Tianxing looked back behind him, only to see a group of knights galloping towards him.
couldn't help but be slightly stunned, Zhang Huai didn't wait, but waited for this Qin Lan.
"I've seen Captain Qin!"
immediately bowed, only to see that behind this Qin Lan, he was covered in blood.
Apparently not so long ago, it had just experienced a big war.
Lu Tianxing thought about it for a while, and then knew what was going on: "But there is another rebellion!"
"Exactly! The surrendering troops of several cities in the southwest conspired to attack our army from behind. These bunnies, they're not honest!"
muttered a curse, Qin Lan said indifferently: "But it's okay, they will all be sent to the east later, and they can't help but fight at that time!"
Lu Tianxing shook his head slightly, in fact, at this time, they were already in danger.
The total number of troops under control is almost close to one million. Among them, there are those who sincerely serve the Heavenly Demon Kingdom and want to seek a future. There are also those who are patiently dormant and waiting for an opportunity.
There is also grain and grass, which travels lightly and relies on plunder. Don't look at it, it burned a lot, but there is not much food in the army.
Those refugees are also not many at this time.
If this battle cannot be won, I am afraid that the situation will be worrying.
"Lao Tzu's side, they are guarding like an iron bucket, and they have no chance to break the turtle shell. I have no choice but to let Ling Xuan lead the army on my behalf, come to you to take a look!"
In the voice, there is a bit of intimacy. Although they have only known each other for a short time, Qin Lan's surname is like this, and he has always admired tough guys who are strong in force and can fight.
What's more, this person is Lu You's own nephew.
"I wonder how you're doing here?"
"Within a day, subordinates will be able to break it!"
Words are like gold, just two words, but they are categorical. Lu Tianxing continued, but he still looked at the barracks.
"However, Zhang Guoshi said that this battle does not need to be effortless, and in a few words, the outcome can be determined. ”
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment, and wondered if there was such a thing? Zhang Guoshi naturally referred to Zhang Huai, although this person was a little delicate, but he was also quite a character to his liking.
These words, he can ignore those trivial matters and fight happily on the battlefield, all because of this person's work.
In the next moment, I saw a figure walking out of the tent on the east side of the opposite side, with a gentle smile on his face.
Although it was in front of the two armies, they were pacing calmly and unhurriedly.
Looking at it from afar, it was Zhang Huai. It was just when his figure had just walked out of the camp about five hundred feet. In the camp of the company, several flames were immediately ignited in succession. A burst of shouts and killings rushed into the sky.
The seemingly solid camp was suddenly in a panic.
Lu Tianxing raised his eyebrows slightly, is it really done?
He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but Lu Tianxing knew that at this time, it was not the time to hesitate and rejoice, so he pointed forward with his horse whip: "Order the five towns of the evil army to move forward and make a strong attack." The rest of the armies are ready to attack with me!"
At the sound of an order, the entire military formation was roaring. Qin Lan was listening, but felt slightly strange. At this time, the turmoil in this company camp mostly came from the east, and it was the enemy on the opposite side of the five towns of the evil army who could listen to Qin Lie's intentions, but he didn't seem to want to start from the east.
After thinking about it for a while, Qin Lan knew the reason. There was chaos in the east, and the enemy attacked again. If he were an enemy general, he would have done everything in his power to suppress the rebellion in his camp.
This guy has a good calculation!
But Qin Lan's eyes showed even more appreciation. This son uses the ability of soldiers, and knows that he loves the soldiers under his command, and he is indeed much stronger than him!
It was only a moment later that Zhang Huai was still walking there, and he didn't know how good the time would be to get to the front of the military formation.
Qin Lan was impatient, so he simply rode his horse to meet him, and then asked curiously: "Boy, how did you do it?"
"It's simple, it's just a temptation from the ground!"
Zhang Huai smiled, it was indeed an ordinary drama: "The land of the three counties has no owner, and I don't know how many people are staring at it." How many people can not care about the confusion of a city and a place? Even those city lords can not be tempted, and their subordinates may not be unmoved. ”
Lu Tianxing's pupils shrank when he heard this, and he frowned: "These heads and rats are disloyal and unrighteous at both ends, I am afraid that they will not be easy to control in the future!"
He said in a condensed voice: "The power of the seal is in the hands of the king." We courtiers should not overstep our bounds. ”
Zhang Huai smiled and handed over a bright yellow scroll.
Lu Tianxing took a look, but it was Qin Lie's edict. The payment was made a few months ago, and the meaning of the edict was that Zhang Huai could be allowed to act cheaply.
Did this gentleman expect it?
Lu Tianxing's heart was tightly hung and finally let go. What he is most worried about is that Zhang Huai does not know how to restrain himself, which will attract suspicion.
Then he turned around suddenly, shouted wildly, and shook for ten miles!
