Chapter 368: Luoyang changes hands
Zou Yu thought about it, this is normal, Wang Shichong deliberately married his daughter in order to win over Shan Xiongxin, Shan Xiongxin naturally belongs to his own people, such a fierce general, of course it is best to break through, Xie Yingdeng is said to be like a god in archery, and he is also the best candidate to pull out the sentry.
"What are General Liu's plans for the future?" Zou Yu asked with a move in his heart.
"The last general doesn't know, if he can survive, maybe he will be unarmed and return to the field." Liu Shili thought blankly for a moment and replied.
As an outcast, how is it possible to say that there is no resentment in his heart, of course, even if he can get through this time, he will not go to Wang Shichong again.
"General Liu! After Li Shimin retires from the army, why don't you follow this king? At the very least, this king will not leave his brother and leave on his own! Zou Yu asked sincerely.
"Thank you for your kindness, I need to think about it." Liu Shili said again.
"Good! I wait for your good news! Zou Yu didn't force him to agree immediately, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile.
"Okay, I'll definitely think about it." Seeing that Zou Yu didn't force him, Liu Shili breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.
"Dingdingmen will be entrusted to you! Tell the others that the king of Luoyang City has taken over. Zou Yu said to Liu Shili.
"Whoa!" Liu Shili nodded heavily and responded with his fists clenched.
Liu Shili basically couldn't run away here, which made Zou Yu feel very good, left Dingdingmen, and continued to inspect the rest of the places.
There were a few fires in the city, but at this time, he didn't care about those, and only hoped that Cheng Zhijie and Niu Jinda would not let him down.
Thinking about the names of these two people, it is a lot more reassured, after all, the two famous generals can't even get a little chaos.
Of course, Cheng Zhijie and the others could not disappoint him, they had recruited hundreds of young men in the past two days, plus the personal guards, and the family members, they had already been waiting for them, after all, what could cause chaos was that they all lived on the edge of the imperial city, and a few teams of people were ruthlessly suppressed by them as soon as they walked to the street.
These people are also people who pay attention to Wang Shichong's movements, but because Wang Shichong is messing around, they also have no extra food to recruit people, and they have made up three or five hundred people, there are no famous generals, how can they be the opponents of Cheng Zhijie and Niu Jinda.
In addition to the Imperial City and Xiyuan in Luoyang City, the rest of the place, the sound of killing shook the sky, Li Shimin was determined to take Luoyang, naturally he would not consider the factor of Zou Yu anymore, and the city head guarded by his people was also fighting.
Fortunately, this is night, and the difficulty of attacking the city is greater than that of the day, and Zou Yu is well prepared, arrows, and rolling wood thunder stones have not been consumed some time ago, so there is no danger.
The battle lasted for more than two hours, and Li Shimin saw that there was no progress and the sky was already slightly bright, so he ordered the troops to be withdrawn.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no danger for the time being, Zou Yu immediately rushed to the Hanjia granary, and according to Yang Xu's prompt, he found the underground granary! When he opened it, it was really full of grain, and Zou Yu was immediately overjoyed.
Get people to get food out and start cooking right away! The amount is large and full, and it is all fine food, which suddenly makes the soldiers guarding the city feel that following Zou Yu seems to be a good choice.
Open the warehouse and release the grain! A large amount of grain was put out, and ordinary people could get a little, and if they were willing to help defend the city, not only would they have enough to eat, but they would also have five catties of wheat to take home every day.
The entire people of Luoyang City walked out of their homes and accepted the fact that Luoyang City had changed its ruler, not to mention anything else, just because Zou Yu was able to take out the food, which made everyone overjoyed and accepted this fact at once.
Not only did they accept it, but they welcomed it very much, and many people couldn't help but cry when they got the food.
Thinking of the people who starved to death at home, he was completely sad, crying, and of course he was even more grateful to Zou Yu in his heart.
There is no need to persuade too much, almost all the people are willing to help defend the city, and Zou Yu asked Xu Wenyuan and others to organize the people, and those who can fight to defend the city, women and children will help with logistics, cooking, and transporting rolling wood and thunder stones!
Because there were too many dead people in Luoyang City, many places were empty, and Zou Yu asked them to demolish those dilapidated houses and send them to the city to defend the city.
Li Shimin had no results in a night of fighting, so he had to repair for half a day, and it was not until late afternoon that he organized the attacking men and horses again.
Looking at the banner that had changed at the head of the city, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart, after working hard for so long, he had cheapened others, and judging from the dense guards at the head of the city, he had already lost the desire to attack.
Of course, he didn't know that half of the people in the city were just recruited, and they didn't even have the weapons, they were just holding the door panels to help defend it, or they were helping to drop the rolling wood and thunder stones from the city.
"Li Shimin! Don't come unharmed! Zou Yu shouted.
"Tang Wang's demeanor is still the same! Congratulations! Under the protection of the guards, Li Shimin rode a war horse and walked a hundred meters outside the city, looked at Zou Yu with a complicated expression, and hugged his fists.
"Li Shimin! Luoyang City belongs to this king! Retire your troops! Zou Yu said proudly.
"King Tang wants Luoyang! You have to ask these 80,000 troops! Same as disagree! If King Tang is not enough! There are still 100,000 horses in the Tiger Prison Pass! Not to be outdone, Li Shimin raised his arms and shouted.
"Roar! Roar! As Li Shimin shouted, the soldiers outside the city roared loudly.
I have to say that Li Shimin is really powerful, and he still has no frustration of failure until now, which makes Zou Yu secretly admire, but now is not the time for his subordinates to show mercy.
"Haha! Li Shimin, don't say you have so many people! Even if you have, the people in the tiger prison, do you dare to transfer? Zou Yu asked with a laugh.
"I'm not afraid to tell you! This king of the steppe defeated the Turks! More than 100,000 enemies were killed, and Jieli Khan escaped! Now the soldiers and horses who have returned to the division have arrived at the edge of the Yellow River! You're still worried about Chang'an! Without waiting for Li Shimin to answer, Zou Yu continued.
"Oh! Oh! Oh! ”
"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Hearing that Zou Yu had broken the Turks, the head of the city suddenly shouted excitedly.
Li Shimin was also shocked by this news, Zou Yu attacked the Turks, he knew about this, he originally thought it was just simple harassment, after all, Dingxiang City is not so easy to fight! Not only does the city belong to a fortified city, but the Turks have been guarding no less than 30,000 or 50,000 people for a long time, and the most important thing is that the Hetao itself is the most important pasture and grain producing area for the Turks, and there are a lot of herdsmen there, which means that the Turks can pull up a team of 100,000 people at any time.
As for the fact that he went out of Youzhou to fight with the Turks on the grassland, he was even more unimpressed, after all, the Turks were the least short of war horses, and the grassland was the world of cavalry, Li Shimin didn't think that Zou Yu could surpass the Turks in cavalry.
However, since Zou Yu said this under such circumstances, then the matter is basically true, and even if there is moisture, it cannot hide the fact that the Turks have failed.
