Chapter 121: Control
Xu Fusheng's army traveled all the way, and the Dong people never treated them badly. As long as it is a reasonable military demand, the Dong people will try their best to meet it.
But in this regard, Xu Fusheng did not feel the slightest gratitude. He was ashamed to say: "The Dong people want our soldiers to work hard for them, of course, we must give them good weapons and materials, and let them be fed.
Hmph, including the indemnities given to all ethnic groups, in fact, they are just pensions paid in advance to the soldiers of southern Xinjiang. ”
At this point, Wei Zitong really didn't bother to argue with him, and besides, they were not from southern Xinjiang in their bones, and of course they couldn't understand the understanding of the words southern Xinjiang people.
The city of Liping is not too big, and the arrival of 60,000 soldiers has made it instantly crowded, and many soldiers can only camp in the open space in the walled city.
At Horn's behest, the soldiers and civilians guarding the place gave up their rooms to try to meet the rest needs of the reinforcements first.
The Dong warriors and Xu Fusheng's army were already a little unpleasant to each other, and this order provoked a backlash from the soldiers of the entire walled city.
The commanders of the walled city could only be appeased with good words, and they privately appeased their subordinates like this: "Anyway, they will go to the battlefield tomorrow to die, so let them spend the last comfortable night!"
Xu Fusheng originally planned to rest for a day in the Liping Walled City, replenish the military supplies, and then rush to the defense line to support the next day.
However, the amount of military supplies required by their army is very large, especially bows and arrows, weapons, food and grass, so it is inevitable that there will be delays, but it is only a matter of time, and it does not affect the replenishment of materials.
After a whole afternoon, Xu Fusheng had people empty all the supplies stored here.
It was almost dusk, and Xu Fusheng came to Lin Huiyu's room. The two of them sat down, and Xu Fusheng took the lead in speaking: "Huiyu, you have to watch Ling'er tonight, don't allow her to go out, and at the same time let the green shirt guards who have arrived first gather in front of my tent." ”
Lin Huiyu frowned, you must know that this is the most important part, once something goes wrong, I am afraid they will have to go into exile again.
Xu Fusheng slowly took a deep breath and said heavily: "No matter what, you have to gamble on this, and if necessary, you can let those people from the Black Witch Sect make a little panic." ”
Lin Huiyu was also infected by Xu Fusheng's tone, gradually became solemn, and paused: "The green shirt guards I transferred this time are all the ones who first trained, including Bai Da and eighteen of them.
I have let them enter the walled city in advance, and I will let them go to you outside the tent later. ”
As the two spoke, four dark blue harriers rose into the sky, circled over the walled city, and then flew northeast under the cover of night.
These blue harriers fly extremely fast, and they are very fierce, and they are not easy to intercept, which is very suitable for transmitting important military information.
It's just that the domestication of green harriers is very difficult, and the Dong and Dai together have only a few dozen, and this time because of the need to transmit very important information, four were sent at a time.
The Blue Harriers will inform the coalition forces on the front line that the first reinforcements will arrive at Jinping Mountain in the early morning of three days.
At the same time, Xu Fusheng asked the soldiers in southern Xinjiang to ensure the safety of the passage as much as possible, because he also had to escort the next batch of grain, grass and military supplies.
When the four green harriers disappeared at one end of the horizon, a dark shadow came to Lin Huiyu's room and reported everything he saw to Xu Fusheng.
Xu Fusheng nodded with satisfaction and feathered up with Lin Hui
Walking out of the room, the two looked at the brightly lit and busy walled city, and took a deep breath in unison.
Then, Lin Huiyu turned to leave, and Xu Fusheng strode towards his big tent, where Wei Zitong had been waiting for a long time.
"Zitong, no matter what happens tonight, we can't let our soldiers out of the camp, no matter what happens, they are not allowed to go out, and those who break into the camp will be killed. Xu Fusheng sat down, looked at Wei Zitong and commanded.
Wei Zitong hesitated, but under Xu Fusheng's calm gaze, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay!"
"Also, let the Xuanhuang Heavy Riders who follow you get ready, we are going to kill people tonight, and you will accompany me. ”
Wei Zitong's heart sank, thinking of what Xu Fusheng said to him yesterday, he nodded solemnly and said, "Okay." ”
Not long after, nearly a hundred soldiers in armor came to the tent, and two of them looked at each other and entered the tent.
Xu Fusheng saw that Bai Da and Eighteen had arrived, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, if he wanted to talk about loyalty, I am afraid that only Lin Huiyu and these people they cultivated in the first batch could make him truly feel at ease.
Xu Fusheng did not shy away from Wei Zitong, looked at Bai Da and ordered: "Let our people monitor the movements of all Dong warriors, and notify me immediately if there is any change." ”
At the same time, he said to Eighteen: "You now take someone to General Horn and I look, if he resists or escapes, kill him directly." Remember, don't alarm anyone else, if someone sees you, you know what to do. ”
At this time, the baggage officer in charge of the grain and grass came to report: "Your Excellency, the guests of the farewell dinner have arrived." ”
Xu Fusheng bowed his head slightly and looked at Wei Zidao: "Let's go, I'll tell you what will happen next." ”
The hall on the first floor of the walled tower's largest watchtower was temporarily set up as a dinner venue, large enough for hundreds of people to eat and hold a bonfire dance at the same time.
Xu Fusheng said that before going to the front line, he wanted to get close to the officers of all ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang, so he held such a banquet of a friendship nature.
Although it was somewhat taboo to feast before the war, everyone had been holding back these days, and it was rare to have a chance to have a good get-together, so as to acquiesce in the actions of the divine envoy.
All the commanders above the middle level in the Liping Walled City were invited, including Xu Fusheng's students and the commanders of the army directly under the king of Southern Xinjiang.
With the exception of the Commanders, who had to take a rotation, almost all of the Commanders who had been invited were in attendance. What attracted them was not Xu Fusheng's status as an envoy, but some of the maids who accompanied the army that Xu Fusheng brought from Bora City, and some programs specially prepared by Xu Fusheng.
The dinner began, and Xu Fusheng walked into the banquet hall with a smile on his face.
In the sonorous sound, there were indeed some mysterious women who followed Xu Fusheng into the banquet hall, but the number was pitiful, and there were more unknown people behind them.
The men were all heavily armed and heavily armoured, and as more and more people entered, the commanders, who were eating and laughing, finally sensed that something was wrong.
They were all aware of the seriousness of the matter, they had come to the dinner party, they were not wearing any decent armor, and only a dozen of the most senior commanders were qualified to bring weapons for self-defense.
Although there were nearly two hundred commanders in the hall, and each commander was also an excellent warrior, compared to these Tsing Yi Guard killers who were almost armed to the teeth by Xu Fusheng, they were like a group of lambs surrounded by evil wolves.
Immediately following into the hall were nearly a hundred
In front of the heavily armored and spear-wielding heavy cavalry, if these commanders resist, the only fate would be slaughter.
Xu Fusheng looked at everyone with a smile: "Don't panic, adults, I am a very tolerant person, at least your lives will not be threatened."
Of course, the premise is that you can cooperate with me, and now, I announce that we will take over the city of Liping in an all-round way, and I am afraid that I will have to grieve you for the time being. ”
With a few choking sounds, several commanders of the Dong tribe and several of his deputies drew their scimitars.
Among them, one of the commanders of the Dong tribe guarding the city of Liping came out and shouted angrily: "Lord Divine Envoy, at this time, what you do will not only bring destruction to the Dong and Dai tribes, but also destroy the entire southern Xinjiang tribe.
In fact, you are burying the entire Southern Xinjiang Province, if you insist on taking over the Liping Walled City, then as a Southern Xinjiang person, no matter who you are, I will resist to the end!"
Xu Fusheng smiled and said, "I don't have to worry about whether I will bury Nanjiang Dao or not, I am a tolerant person, and I will never stop you from becoming a hero of the Dong clan." ”
With that, he waved his hand, and a strong heaven and earth vitality gently swept past the few leaders who were standing upright with their swords.
In the deathly silence, the bodies of the Commanders began to glow with milky white light, quickly turning into several lifelike statues, and then they slowly fell backwards without saying a word.
"Who else?"
Xu Fusheng's cold eyes swept across the audience, and he was satisfied to see that all the commanders had subconsciously avoided his gaze.
Although he had forced the palace on the board of directors before, he had never done such a dangerous thing, if these commanders swore to resist.
Although he can kill them all, if he is not careful, if he alarms the army, then he will face the undying hatred of the entire Southern Xinjiang Province against him.
Fortunately, these commanders were not all warriors, and they chose to compromise when their lives were threatened.
After controlling all the middle and upper commanders, the work of taking over the Liping Walled City was very smooth. Even if there were occasional sporadic resistance from soldiers, they were quickly suppressed by Wei Zitong and others.
By the time the early morning sun shone over the walled city of Liping, the place had already changed owners.
The loud sound of military trumpets sounded in the walled city, and the soldiers of southern Xinjiang who had been ordered to stay in the camp for the night poured out of the camp and rushed to the designated area amid the shouts of commanders at all levels.
Began to frantically fortify the entire walled city, the ditches on both sides of the walled city were dug deep and wide, and sharpened wooden piles were arranged inside.
Huge swords were taken out of the warehouse and placed in the towers of the walled city, and new armor and swords were also moved out of the warehouse, and all the warriors were changed in an organized manner.
Everyone was on orders, and they didn't know what was going on, and they tried to fortify the defense of the city as much as possible, but fortunately, the Dong people's walled towers were made of huge rocks.
It naturally has defensive attributes, as long as the warriors enter the various towers, they want to take the walled city in a short time, unless the 100,000 troops with good siege equipment attack at the same time.
Since the Liping Walled City is the most important transit point connecting the rear of the allied forces of various ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang with the front line, the military supplies in the fortress are piled up.
These things, as a matter of course, were all taken by Xu Fusheng as they already existed. These recruits, who are now stationed in the walled city of Liping, are well-equipped and are catching up with the most elite troops in southern Xinjiang.
