485. Three days of exposing the corpse
The generals of the Yuan Army all showed unbearable expressions, "Lord Gongliang, why are you so persistent? ”
Gongliang said: "It's not attachment, but ...... Chongqing was robbed, and the old man no longer had the heart to govern other cities. ”
Seeing the hot air balloon getting closer and closer, his voice suddenly became heavy, "Generals, I order you to lead the soldiers to leave quickly!" ”
Guard, it is definitely not guarded. It is better to spare the lives of these soldiers.
As for whether the White Horse Army will slaughter the city, Gongliang has never been worried about this.
The white horse came out of Shu, and Zhao Dongting, who was familiar with the situation, knew that there was still the shadow of Dali behind it. But Yuan Dynasty officials like Gongliangchang would not associate with Dali.
Shuzhong is the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, in the eyes of Gongliangchang. The White Horse Army came out of Shuzhong because the Great Song Dynasty had recently re-emerged, so they no longer chose to sit idly by.
He thought that the White Horse Army was ordered by the Song Dynasty, and the Song Army's army would slaughter the people in his own country?
Apparently not.
The generals sighed heavily, and when they saw that they could not persuade the good man, they finally led the soldiers at the head of the city to run down the city.
The shouts continued to sound, and the Yuan army at the head of the city rushed down the city, and then headed towards the north of Chongqing Mansion.
The hot air balloon in the White Horse Army reached more than 200 meters above the city, and did not chase the Yuan army that ran away in the city, but stopped in the air, and someone shouted below: "We are the White Horse Army in Shuzhong, listen to the Yuan thieves in the city, quickly open the city and surrender!" Otherwise, you will be burned with this wall! ”
There seemed to be a slight smile in the shout.
Obviously, the generals of the White Horse Army who shouted also saw the movement of the Yuan army in the city.
Gongliang looked up at dozens of hot air balloons, his face flushed with anger. The clamor of the White Horse Army really made him feel angry.
But what about being angry?
If the power is inferior to others, there is only the share of bowing your head.
Sighing heavily, Gongliangchang's already old face seemed to be a little older at this moment, and his back was slumped towards the city.
At the head of the city, apart from him at this time, there were no more Yuan soldiers. Many flags fluttered in the wind, but they looked so sluggish.
The equipment that should defend the city was also abandoned by the Yuan army on the city.
Gongliang went down to the city alone.
On the steps, every step of his life seemed so heavy. It seems that lifting a leg requires tens of millions of pounds of strength.
Finally arrived in the corridor under the city.
Gongliang struggled to turn his hands around, and a huge turntable to control the suspension bridge hung on the wall of the corridor.
The long rope of the thick-handed baby's arm rattled.
Even this is actually not too strenuous action, and it also makes Gongliangchang, who is weak, cough slightly, and the red face looks even more bewitching.
When the rope of the suspension bridge finally came to an end, Gongliang Chang let go of the turntable and took a few heavy breaths before continuing to walk towards the outside of the city.
Two heavy wooden gates completely sealed the entrance to the gate, and the only light in the corridor was dim torches.
Gongliang Chang walked out of the city step by step in such an environment, and from behind, his figure seemed to be an old man who was about to die.
He staggered to the city gate, and with both hands grasped the wooden fence and steel cable that held the gate. Several times in a row, his face turned red, and he couldn't pull the steel cable and wooden fence open.
This made him cough violently again.
After several times, the steel cable and the wooden grid were finally opened.
Gongliang leaned forward and pressed the weight of most of the people on the city gate.
"Squeak......
The heavy city gate finally opened slowly.
A ray of sunlight poured in through the crack in the gate, shining in Gongliangchang's eyes, making him squint.
It was the last color in his eyes.
Before he could close his eyes, a cold arrow, just behind the sunlight, pierced his skull.
After all, the sick and sick-looking Gongliang Chang failed to push the city gate completely open, but pushed it open so much that it was more than ten centimeters wide, and fell to the ground on his back.
But he died peacefully.
At the moment of death, he was probably still being stabbed by the sun, and he didn't realize that death would come immediately, so there was no horror on his face.
"Enter the city!"
In front of the army outside the city, the generals of the White Horse Army in white robes and white coats raised their spears and shouted.
The white horses and light horses flocked to the city gate.
The suspension bridge creaked incessantly under the trampling of war horses.
The leader is the general of the White Horse Army who just shouted, and he is undoubtedly the commander of the White Horse Army in Kuizhou. He was immediately in front of the dead Gongliangchang.
And all the soldiers followed closely behind.
There was silence in the army.
This White Horse Army is clearly the best of the best.
The commander looked down at the corpse of Gongliang Chang in official robes, and the war horse twisted his head a little impatiently. He looked at the guards next to him and said, "Hang him up and expose his body for three days." ”
"Yes!"
Several guards were ordered to turn over and dismount, and then carried up the body of the chief of justice.
The commander no longer looked at the chief of the good man, and led the light horsemen to the city. When I crossed the corridor and went to the streets of the city, it was just empty.
The current Chongqing is far from recovering, and there are only tens of thousands of people in the entire giant city. Normally, there are few people, but now that there is a war, it is even more so.
To put it in layman's terms, there is not even a ghost on the entire street.
However, of course, there are still many eyes quietly looking at the neat white horse army in the houses on both sides.
The commander of the White Horse Army seemed to have sensed something, looked left and right, a smile flashed in his eyes, and suddenly shouted: "Everyone, now the Chongqing Mansion has returned to the hands of our Great Song Dynasty. We are all soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, and we will never kill innocents indiscriminately, so you don't have to be afraid, come out of the house! ”
Of course, no one in the next room responded to his words, and no one would stand up stupidly.
The people have these fears of the soldiers.
For a long time, there was no movement in the houses on either side of the street.
The smile on the corner of the mouth of the commander of the White Horse Army was even stronger, but it looked a little weird, waved his hand, and went straight to the palace with his soldiers.
On this day, as the deputy governor of Kuizhou and the governor of Chongqing Prefecture, the chief of public conscience was hung on the head of the city to expose his body.
After the White Horse Army entered the city, they went to the barracks or government offices one after another, and indeed did not harass the people.
At night, the people finally stopped hiding in their houses, and began to move around. The people gradually discussed the entry of the Great Song White Horse Army into the city, and many people were puzzled, not knowing why Shuzhong, which had always been alone, would suddenly send troops to seize Chongqing Mansion.
Could it be because the Song Dynasty has suddenly become famous again?
It can be that the former Yuan Dynasty had just attacked the Song Dynasty, and when the Song Dynasty had not yet shown its defeat, there was no movement of the White Horse Army in Shuzhong!
However, this is a good thing for the people after all, at least the Song Dynasty will not oppress the Han people as much as the Yuan Dynasty.
As a result, the White Horse Army captured Chongqing, and the people still liked to see it.
It's just that there are inevitably some people who have a lot of complaints about Gongliangchang's body being exposed. I think this practice is too vicious.
Two more days passed.
The corpse of the chief of justice hanging from the city gradually dried up and emitted a foul smell.
This made everyone avoid it, and no one entered or exited the west gate of this Chongqing Mansion anymore. And the White Horse Army that entered the city has no sign of leaving Chongqing Mansion at the moment.
Fujian Road.
The Yuan army on the Jiangnan West Road finally arrived outside Shaowu County and camped on both sides of the official road just a few miles north of the county seat.
Xi Wuliang sent out several waves of scouts, but less than half of them returned. Obviously, the Yuan army had also set up a lot of open and secret posts near their camp.
This made it impossible for the Detoutuo scouts to infiltrate the vicinity of Yuanjun's camp to investigate the situation.
How many pots were used by the Yuan army to make rice, and how many people were in the army, these can only be roughly guessed, and it is difficult to get a close to accurate number of words.
And this is definitely not good for the defenders of the city.
Those who are besieging a city need to know themselves and their opponents, and this is especially true for those who defend cities. Because only by knowing the strength of the besieging side can we deduce at what pace they will attack the city.
The 6,000-headed Tuo soldiers, no matter how they arranged to defend the city, seemed too stretched.
After seeking Zhao Dongting's consent, Xi Wuliang and others arranged 4,000 soldiers to guard the north gate. The rest of the west and east cities had a thousand men each, and the south gate simply gave up the defense altogether.
The Yuan army came from the north, and it was not expected that they would go around the south gate to attack the city with great fanfare. And if they do, there's no way around it.
In the face of tens of thousands of troops, the 4,000 soldiers at the North City Gate are already very few.
