Chapter Forty-Four: How Can You Talk About the Surprise Attack on Chengdu City (12)

Lightning flashed and thundered, and heavy rain poured.

Luo Dang wore heavy armor, fought with a ring knife on his right, held an iron mallet on his left, and fought first. The guards never thought that Dingxi would attack the city at this time, until Luo Dang jumped on the top of the city, and the guards did not react. The city wall is wider, one side is the battlement, the other side is the thatched hut that has been temporarily erected, the guards are mostly sheltered from the rain in the thatched hut, and they do not wait for them to come out.

The Dingxi soldiers who landed in the city, some carried buckets, some carried pots, and the barrels and pots were filled with oil. They poured out the oil, and the black oil mixed with the stagnant water flowed on the ground of the city. A few soldiers lit a fire and set the oil on fire. The ten golden monkeys on fire screamed wildly, and some of them also touched the oil, and suddenly, the flames were everywhere, and in a short time, they became a raging fire.

Shuzhong was already blazing, and in the early days of the Heavenly Master Dao, Hanzhong was one of its important missionary towns, and the "Twenty-four Governance" of the Heavenly Master Dao, of which there were three governance, which were in Hanzhong at first. Gao Yancao attacked the White Horse City, the White Horse Mountain on the edge of the city, is its first rule, called "Hukou Zhi", and the remaining two rules, one "Houcheng" and one "Gongmu", are all in the mountains outside Nanzheng County.

Therefore, whether it is the guards in Zhengcheng in the south, or the generals and colonels in the defenders, there are many people who believe in the way of heavenly masters or witchcraft ghosts and gods.

Seeing that the fire caused by the oil could not be extinguished even by the heavy rain, the guards and guards were all shocked and shouted: "Divine fire." ”

The fall of Chuyang has already dealt a blow to the morale of the guards; Luo Dang and the others landed in the city on a rainy night, which dealt them another blow; The rain could not extinguish the fire, which dealt them a third and heaviest blow.

Like the straw that broke the camel's back, the guards discarded their weapons and fled.

Since joining the army, there has not been a battle, which can make Luo Dang kill heartily like the battle in front of him.

Luo Dang rose up to kill, just chasing, even his own soldiers couldn't catch up with his pace. Before he knew it, he had slain from the head of the city to the bottom of the city. The trenches in the city have been dug up, and dozens and hundreds of routs have fled towards the trenches one by one, panicking, some of them have fallen into it, and some of them are lucky, and they have just run to the drawbridge, and they have crossed the trenches along the drawbridge. However, there was no choice, and the shouts and killings behind them did not stop, so they had to keep their heads bored and continue to run inside. The shouting of slaughter that followed them came from Luo Dang.

At this time, if you look down from the city, you can see that it is Luo Dang alone, chasing and killing nearly a thousand guards.

The follow-up siege troops rushed to the city.

Among the first group of soldiers who went to the city, someone had already opened the city gates.

Thousands of wolf-like Dingxi soldiers rushed into the city.

One by one, military reports came out of the city and were sent to Xin Er, Tang Ai, Ling Hujing and other places on the top of the hill.

"The city guards have all surrendered."

"The trenches in the city have been filled."

"Attacking the Puppet General's Mansion!"

"The Hanzhong County Mansion has been captured!"

"The puppet general's mansion has been defeated!"

As dawn approached, the fighting in the city had subsided.

Xin Yi smiled and said to Tang Ai, Ling Hujing and the others: "Let's go into the city and have a look, shall we?" ”

Tang Ai looked casual, as if the great achievement of conquering Nan Zheng was not the one he had set, shook the feather fan lightly, and responded: "Okay." ”

Ling Hujing made a gesture as warm as jade, and replied respectfully: "No." ”

Everyone went down the mound, Xin Er rode horses, Tang Ai, Ling Hujing and others rode in cars, and under the followers of Wei Shu and Wei Xian, they walked hundreds of steps and entered the city.

Before dawn, dozens of soldiers held torches in front of them.

Along the way, as far as the eye could see, there were all the corpses of the guards, and some people fell on the road, and some of them were seriously injured and difficult to walk, lying in the mud, moaning dying; Everywhere were knives, shields, lances, bows, and other things discarded by the guards. Blood and water filled the pit, and the smell was fishy. Fortunately, the heavy rain did not stop, and the fire at the head of the city did not spread to the houses in the city, and the "li district" on both sides of the street barely remained in its original state.

Ling Hujing was pampered, and he had never seen such a tragic image after the war before, and his face couldn't help but turn pale.

Xin Er called him close and asked, "Few, can Nan Zheng attack?" ”

Linghu Jing got down from the ox cart, stepped on the water with silk shoes, and most of the white cranes he was wearing were splashed with mud underneath. Begging Ming Gong not to blame! ”

The rain trickled down his armor, washing his armor and mounts bright and clean. Xin Er removed his pocket, looked at Ling Hujing, and said with a smile: "Xian, you are known as a wise man, how can you call a 'fool' word?" Taking advantage of the rainy night to attack Nanzheng, this plan of thousands of miles can be seen even by three-year-old children, it is really a feasible strategy, how can you not see it?

"What you said before the war, I don't think it's gibberish."

Ling Hu Jing's heart sank, and he asked, "What does Ming Gong mean by this?" ”

"I think you have ulterior motives."

"......, where did Ming Gong start with this! Jing didn't understand what Ming Gong meant. ”

Xin Er instructed Tang Ai's servants to drive Tang Ai's ox cart over, asked Tang Ai, and said: "Qianli, do you think that the words that were rarely said before the war, 'the night rain cannot attack the city', 'You might as well wait for the battle between Huan Gong and the Shu soldiers to have a result before attacking Nanzheng' Yunyun, is it his sincere words, or does he have other plans?" ”

Tang Ai lifted the curtain of the car, probed outside the car, raised a feather fan to cover the rain, looked up and down at Ling Hujing, who was dressed in plain white and standing in the muddy water and drenched in the rain, and replied to Xin Er, saying: "Ming Gongxin worshiped the Son of Heaven as the general of the conquest, this time he worked hard to rejuvenate the people, personally cut down Shu, and was the high hope of the Jiangzuo court and the king, the queen mother and the princes of the court.

"Those who rarely said before the war, in Ai's opinion, I'm afraid they are not true."

It's not true, it's something else.

Xin Er beckoned and asked Linghujing to come closer.

Ling Hujing's face turned pale, and he barely walked to the head of Xin Er's mount.

Xin Er stepped forward immediately, looked down at him, and said, "Xian, you don't tell me the truth, I will tell you the truth."

"The first king valued your brother, and I also valued your brother's talent, so after the first king, I want to reuse your brother and raise him as the general of Zhenwu; However, my kindness is not reciprocated, and in the blink of an eye, your brother has made peace with the recorder Fan Gong and Lang Zhongling Chen Sun. Is there a plan for you? ”

Ling Hujing wanted to explain.

Xin Er stopped him and said, "Don't speak, listen to me."

"I tried my best to plan and Lieutenant Koji fought a bloody battle, and defeated Wudu and Yinping, but because of the recommendation of Duke Pan and Chen Sun, I was picked by your brother, and he served as the assassin of Qinzhou and the Taishou of Wudu. In the middle, do you also have a plan?

"In order to ensure the safety of Qinzhou, I instigated Zhao Yanli, Zhao Rangan's father and son to join me in Dingxi, and made great efforts to form an alliance with the Tuoba Department, intending to take Shuofang in the north, so that Pu Qin could not take both the north and the south. However, in the name of assisting the Jiangzuo court in the war against Shu, he sabotaged my plan. Is there another plan for you?

"Your brother begged me to send you into his battalion as a staff officer. In the middle, isn't it still your plan?

"Few, that's all. I don't have to worry about you. However, in the matter of attacking Nanzheng, how can you still be selfish? Do you know how much financial resources I spent in Dingxi to attack Nanzheng this time? How many servants were requisitioned? If the attack on Nanzheng is not defeated, our army will return in vain, do you know how much national strength will be consumed by the labor and salary? ”

The more Ling Hujing listened, the more wrong he became, sweating like pulp, shaking his lips, and said, "Ming Gong,......。 ”

"I told you, don't speak, listen to me." Xin Er bent down, looked at him, lowered his voice, and said, "What do I want to say to you in truth?" Rarely, only two sentences. After the first king, the king is young, the surnames of Song, Pan, and Koji have different hearts, and the court situation is turbulent, and there are Pu Qin wolves outside. That's the first sentence. I once said to Lieutenant Koji that in a remote corner of Longzhou, instead of being the king and dominating Yusi, how can it be like leveling the Central Plains, restoring my Chinese clothes, and relieving the people from hanging upside down, so as to make immortal achievements and ascend to the court of the Son of Heaven? These are my heartfelt words. This is the second sentence I want to say to you. ”

Linghu Jing said in a trembling voice: "Jing is ignorant....... ”

"You're talking again."

"Yes, yes, Jing doesn't dare to speak anymore, please reprimand Ming Gong."

"I don't have anything to reprimand you. People have selfish intentions, and I can understand what you did before; Only this time, as a clan, you disregard the justice of the country, and you want to frustrate our army, I can't tolerate it. Xin Er straightened up, asked Tang Ai, and said, "Before the war, confusing the army's mind, according to military law, what is the crime?" What are the penalties? ”

Tang Ai said: "Rumors and sophistry, wanton heresies, and demagogic sergeants, this is called a prostitute army, and the offender will be beheaded." ”

Ling Hu Jing was shocked, and said urgently: "Jing He once bewitched the sergeant!" ”

The scope of punishment of this military law mentioned by Tang Ai mainly refers to those who "fabricate ghosts and gods and pretend to dream", and Ling Hujing is indeed not among them.

But he couldn't do the math.

Xin Er called Wei Shu and Wei Xian, and simply gave an order, saying: "Linghu Jing bewitches the army's heart, behead!" ”

In the allusions of Mao Sui's self-recommendation, two idioms used in later hereditary generations have been formed, one is "things are done because of people", and the other is "three inches of incorruptible tongue". When Ling Hujing was dragged away by Wei Shu and Wei Xian, he suddenly realized that Xin Er had been killing him for a long time!

Thinking that they have immortal talents, they still want to fight vertically and horizontally, first bring down Xin Er, and then take advantage of Linghu Le's young opportunity, maybe their small sect of Linghu Clan also has a chance to be the king, but unexpectedly, as soon as they emerge, their heads are about to be lost.

Ling Hujing's legs were as soft as cotton, and he shouted indiscriminately: "Xin You! I am a dynasty clan, you dare to kill me? Aren't you afraid that after returning to the court, you will be punished by the king? Xin You's Writing! You let me ,...... now" and that's it.

Wei Xian pressed him on the ground, cut off his head, and held it to Xin Er.

The eyebrows and eyes on the head are still sword-eyed, but there is no longer Yan Ran's romantic demeanor, and the rest is nothing more than a stagnant frightened expression.

Xin Er sighed and said, "It's as he said, you are a clan." Sew it with a needle and thread, leave a whole body with him, and then transport it back to the royal capital, give it to the queen, and then bury it. Asked Tang Ai and said, "Qianli, did I do a little too much?" ”

"Ming Gong's ambition, how can a mediocrity know? It doesn't matter if someone else is changed, Ling Hujing's identity is different, and keeping him will only be a trouble. Tang Ai remembered Ji Wei, poisoning Ji Wei, Huang Rong discussed it with him, and he thought in his heart, "Compared to Ji Wei, Hu Jing died unjustly." ”

The east was getting brighter, but under the dark clouds, the city was still gloomy, and the rain was pouring non-stop.

Hearing the scolding in front of them, Xin Er and Tang Ai looked at it, and saw a person chasing more than ten people, running towards this side from the corner of the street not far away. The man chasing behind him walked like a fly, caught up with the people in front of him, used both swords and mallets, and in an instant, killed them cleanly.

The man was Luo Dang.

Luo Dang saw Xin Er and the others, and ran quickly.

Xin Er frowned and said, "Don't you hear my military orders?" Those who descend do not kill. General Luo, those defeated soldiers are already begging for mercy, why did you still kill them? ”

Luo Dang had been killed in the city for half the night, still alive and vigorous, not the slightest tiredness, he put the mallet in one hand, wiped the blood on his face, stood upright, and replied loudly: "Ming Gong only saw them begging for mercy just now, but did not see their arrogance when they were only a long time!" ”

"When it's crowded? How arrogant? ”

"They gathered about 30 people at the right time, and they didn't surrender to me, but they dared to resist!"

Xin Er was stunned when he heard this, and laughed loudly with Tang Ai and the others.
