That night, Liu Yanqing's main force launched a night battle to attract the attention of Yelu Dashi and Xiao Gan, and Yang Keshi, Guo Yaoshi and others crossed the Lu River from Gu'an on light horses, sneaked all the way, and rested the army in Sanjiadian. When the second day was about to dawn, Guo Yaoshi ordered his deputy general Zhen Wuchen to lead the Changsheng army of 50 people and the Han people who obeyed the orders outside Yanjing City, go to the army, wear civilian clothes, hide weapons, and disguise themselves as peasants waiting for the city to come to the Yingchun Gate.

At that time, the battle news from the front line said that the defense was solid and there was no defeat, so the Yanjing army and civilians were not very vigilant. Waiting for the fifth watch, the drawbridge was lowered, the city gate opened a crack, and a horse flew out as if to deliver a letter. Zhen Wuchen and the others were about to take the opportunity to go in, and the soldiers guarding the door waved their hands and said, "Let's go!" Before the city gate was opened, this time it was to send the military master out of the city. ”

Zhen Wuchen and a few others sped up a few steps forward and said, "Since it's open, let's go in." As he spoke, he squeezed inside. The guard said angrily, "Good! Let you go! Looking for death" pulled out a knife to scare these peasant hooligans who didn't know what to do, but Zhen Wuchen took out a dagger and shouted: "Oops! The official is going to kill someone! ”

Dozens of disguised soldiers and horses waiting outside the gate rushed over when they heard this, and several guards guarding the city saw that the momentum was not right, and shouted: "What are you doing!" Rebellion! Collect the drawbridge! "But where is it? Zhen Wuchen waited for the dagger to come out and kill it. The soldiers defending the city were caught off guard and were killed dozens of people in a matter of moments. After Zhen Wuchen seized the Yingchun Gate, the soldiers and horses lurking outside the city appeared together and swarmed into the city. Yang Keshi saw the success of winning the door, and his heart was ecstatic. Cheng Liang, who temporarily led the Yanjing secret son of the Han Dynasty, stepped forward to see Deng Su and led the Song army into the Minzhong Temple, and a pro-Han merchant sent a house slave to present food and tea to the army.

Guo Yaoshi said: "Although the Spring Festival Gate has been obtained, it is not possible to be careless. Yang Keshi said that he sent seven generals, and each general led 200 people to seize the seven gates of Yanjing under the leadership of the secret son of the Han Dynasty. At that time, Northern Liao was real outside and empty, elite soldiers and horses were transferred to the front line to resist Liu Yanqing, Yanjing's defense was empty, and the Song army's actions were unbelievably smooth. It wasn't until the gates were seized that the soldiers and civilians of Yanjing woke up from their dreams!

On this morning, the ministers of Northern Liao heard that the Song army had entered the city to seize the door, all of them were so frightened that they couldn't move, some of the heads were faster and hurriedly ran to the palace to cry and cry for their mother, and Empress Xiao heard the cry in the dormitory, holding a knife in one hand and a bow in the other, leading the armed maid to rush out, and ordered the civil and military not to panic, while ordering the henchmen to sneak out of the city to Xiao Gan for help, and on the other hand, ordering people to close the palace door in order to respond. She sat on the dragon chair, her expression calm, as if nothing was wrong, but in fact, the right hand hidden behind her back trembled.

"What the hell is going on out there?"

At this time, Guo Yaoshi's edict entered the palace with a feather arrow, and a civil official picked it up, knelt in front of Empress Xiao, did not dare to read it, and finally did not dare not read it: "The army enters the city!" Those who surrender will not be killed! ”

With a snap, the knife in Xiao Hou's hand fell to the ground, and the civil and military officials under the stairs were all in chaos! What to do? What to do?

The ordinary people of Yanjing reacted more chaotically than the ministers! The Great Song army has entered the city, what should they do? After all, they have ruled the Great Liao for two hundred years, and the orthodoxy of the Central Plains has long been forgotten. If it weren't for the imprint of Han'er on the national label, maybe even the last bit of identity would be gone. Guo Yaoshi and Deng Su contacted everywhere, and the local powerhouses in Yanjing, who were somewhat related to them, gradually saw a new path: yes! The army of the Great Song Dynasty is coming, what a chance! A chance to get promoted and make a fortune! Some scholars who may have been concerned about the Central Plains gathered first, followed by those who were unwillingly subordinate in the Northern Liao regime, followed by a group of people who wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob, after the entire Yanjing City was disturbed by the Song army's entry into the city, an atmosphere of "the Great Liao is over" spread rapidly like a virus, most of the people closed the door, and the bold ruffians flocked to the Minzhong Temple to serve. On the afternoon of the Song army's entry into the city, the Han'er garrison in Yanjing City was shaken, with 100, 200, and 300 people...... Finally, there is the collective surrender.

There are more and more people gathered in Minzhong Temple, and there is a surge of people outside Minzhong Temple. There are people in various squares of Yanjing who continue to report success, and the sun is not slanting westward, and all the strongholds in Yanjing except for the imperial palace have been declared to be surrendered. Outside the Minzhong Temple, there were nearly 10,000 people with armor, all of them looking up and waiting for Yang Keshi to issue an order.

"General Yang! What a miracle! Ma Xianliang, one of Zhao Liangsi's brothers, knelt forward and offered a poem: "The general of the broken captives enters the Yan, and the city is full of harmony and Yaotian!" It has lasted 3,000 miles and washed away the fishy flesh for 200 years! Suddenly, he read his crepe verses in the midst of a crowd of noisy warriors, and instead of looking sleek, it seemed funny.

At this time, some of the soldiers of the Minzhong Temple were gathered by the armies of all walks of life, some were the victorious army that behaved like thieves, and some were the ruffians who had just surrendered, who could understand these? Privately, they said, "What is this old man talking about?" ”

"I don't know."

"I said, why didn't this general give the order to rob it!"

"yes, I've got all the torches ready."

Yang Keshi listened to this poem but was quite intoxicated, the last time he failed in the northern expedition he was extremely miserable, at this time he heard "wash away the bloody flesh for two hundred years", he didn't get drunk, and shouted: "Okay! Good! Good! Snow shame! Shame on the snow! Two hundred years of shame is today! ”

When the soldiers and thieves heard this, they all shouted: "Shame on you! ”

Some generals who had experienced the fiasco of Baigou shouted: "Revenge!" ”

Followed by countless people shouting out of control: "Kill! Kill! ”

"Kill all the Khitan dogs! Avenge! ”

I don't know how many people got excited when they heard the word killing, and shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

Unguided anger is usually stupid and terrifying, and Yang Keshi and several other core generals were a little wary of their subordinates becoming so excited at first, but then they were also infected by this atmosphere.

Deng Su was beside him, and he was quite moved at first, but later he was scared when he saw these people become like this. He has been in Liaokou for a long time and knows a lot about the army, but he has never experienced the turmoil of the generals after the sudden destruction of this famous city. If this whole strategy is arranged by Zhi Yanchong, then all kinds of steps before and after entering the city will be arranged in advance; If it was Cao Guangbi who led the army into the city at this time, he would also know how to guide this group emotion. But Deng Su didn't understand it yet, but he faintly felt that something was wrong, and stepped forward and said to Yang Keshi: "General Yang! Concubine Xiao hasn't descended yet! The current priority is to conquer the palace! ”

Yang Keshi exclaimed: "Not bad! "Immediately give the order, and march to the palace in three ways.

When the thousands of people heard that they were about to set off, they were all elated, and they picked up their swords, guns, swords, and clubs and shouted: "Kill! Kill! "Burning, killing and plundering all the way, most people did not go straight to the palace, but like swarms of locusts scurrying around Yanjing!

Deng Su saw the fire in all directions from a distance, and exclaimed: "General Yang! Why is the army in chaos? Hurry up and give the order to stop the killing! ”

Yang Keshi snorted and said, "Stop killing? Why stop killing? The Khitan invaded our country for 200 years and killed more than one million of our soldiers and civilians! Now is the time for revenge, why let them go! ”

Deng Su said: "How is it different from a thief to burn and kill and plunder like this? Besides, there are still Han people in the city! ”

Yang Keshi sneered: "General Xu Bing looting is the ancient method of sacrificing the army, what do you know!" As for the Han people...... "ordered his subordinates to pass on an order to mobilize the Han people in the city to expose their neighbors, as long as they are of the Khitan and Xi races, they are not guilty of killing or wounding, and their family property will be confiscated." The so-called confiscation in the chaotic army is actually any robbery!

Deng Su was about to speak, but Yang Keshi waved his hand and said, "Don't say it!" Now that the morale of our army is high, do you want me to give the order to strike at their momentum? The last defeat of Baigou was because of the chaotic life that did not allow the Liao people to be killed! Say nothing this time and don't make the same mistake again! All we want is a Yanjing, a Yanjing of the Han people! What are these Khitan dogs left for! Kill them all to be clean! On the one hand, he ordered people to go out of the city to win the victory and urged Marshal Liu Yanqing to march into the army, and on the other hand, he personally led the men and horses to the palace to kill.

Looking at his distant back, Deng Su muttered, "High morale? Morale high? No! It's not morale! This is murderous! It's tyrannical! ”
