Chapter 432: Dazhi County captures Luoyang City

A few days later, at night, an army quietly drove outside the south gate of Luoyang City.

Hu Yanzan, dressed in military uniform, rode on a horse with a double whip in his hand, and stood at the front of the team, surrounded by more than a dozen generals on horseback.

Immediately after that, Huyanzan raised his head and looked at the dark city, and then ordered a general beside him: Send a signal.

The general replied: Yes, call the commander.

Then he stretched out his hand and took out a torch from his bosom, and shook it to light a torch, and then drew three circles with the torch in his hand towards the city. After a while, a torch was lit on the top of the city, and three circles were drawn.

This is a pre-determined signal to open the city gate, and the people in the city should be the internal response of the Tianmen Sect arranged by Li Yinglong.

Seeing this, the general shook the torch in his hand from side to side several times. The torches at the head of the city were suddenly extinguished, and then the gates were heard creaking open, and then a rumbling sound was heard, and the drawbridge was lowered.

Hu Yanzan waved his hand and shouted: Enter the city.

With that, a horse rushed into the city gate, followed by a large group of men and horses.

The same thing happened at the east gate of Luoyang City, and after the signal was sent, the city gate opened the drawbridge and lowered it.

The king led a large army into the city.

The west gate of Luoyang City is also like this, after the signal is sent, the city gate opens the drawbridge and puts it down.

Commander Liu led a large army of men and horses into the city.

Soon after, there were teams of soldiers running on the streets of Luoyang City, and after that, the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the crash of weapons, and the terrible howls of people being killed resounded everywhere in the city.

This is the military camp of Li Yinglong's imperial army in the raid on the garrison of the Luoyang King City, that is to say, the final decisive battle between the King of Luoyang and Li Yinglong was launched in Luoyang City.

The north gate of Luoyang City did not enter the army, because this north gate is still in the hands of the army of the king of Luoyang, but the city is already in chaos, and it doesn't matter whose hands this gate is still in now.

Outside the north gate of Luoyang is an open field, surrounded by artemisia grass more than one person tall.

Suddenly, the north gate "creaked" and opened open, and after a while, the drawbridge was lowered, and then I saw a large number of troops pouring out of the city gate, but these troops were extremely chaotic, one by one desperately running outside from the city gate, you squeezed me and I hugged you into a mess.

The drawbridge out of the city is also a zhang wide and narrow, so many soldiers hugged the bridge into balls and could it fit it, so many soldiers were squeezed off the drawbridge and fell into the water of the moat several meters deep.

The banks of the moat are steep and steep, and if people fall into it, they will not be able to climb up if there is no one on it to pull them out, but now is the time to flee for their lives, and who will pull those who fall into the moat. Therefore, those soldiers who fell into the moat had only one result, and that was to be drowned.

The difference is that those who can swim can hold on for a little longer after falling in, while those who can't swim will die after falling in.

These soldiers knew at a glance that the army of the king of Luoyang, who had been defeated from the city, had fled from the north gate because the north gate was still in the hands of their own people.

Just as the rout army rushed out of the city gate and into the large open field, suddenly, a bright fireball rose into the sky from the deep grass directly ahead, and then a rain of flowers dispersed after a loud explosion.

With the storm

As soon as the sound sounded, I saw that three armies with the banner of Song characters rushed out of the grass on the east, west and north sides, and quickly surrounded these routed troops.

The defeated army had become frightened birds, and they were frightened by the sudden encirclement, and they rushed into a pot of porridge, and finally shrank into a ball.

At this time, I saw a young general in a military uniform galloping from behind on horseback, and stopped in front of the army.

This young general is Li Yinglong.

Li Yinglong pointed his hand at the defeated army and shouted: Rebels, listen, you have been heavily surrounded by the army of the commander, dry skin grandmother, acquaintances should quickly put down the weapons in your hands and surrender, those who surrender will be exempted from death, and will not be held accountable, and will also pay you the passage fee to let you go home.

Li Yinglong brought out the preferential treatment policy of the People's Liberation Army in dealing with Kuomintang prisoners during the Liberation War.

But then the voice changed again: But those who continue to resist will be killed.

As soon as Li Yinglong's words fell, he heard someone in the defeated army shouting: We surrender, we surrender, we don't want to do it for the king of Luoyang for a long time.

Then there was another shout: We surrender, we surrender.

All the defeated troops threw out their weapons one after another, and after a while, the weapons were piled up into a small mountain, and then all the defeated troops squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

After watching the defeated army disarm, Li Yinglong ordered a general standing behind him: Commander Jiang, this is handed over to you, and the commander will go into the city to take a look.

Hearing this, Commander Jiang responded: Yes, Generalissimo.

Li Yinglong rode his horse and galloped towards the city gate.

The king of Luoyang ran out of the palace in rags, and saw that the defenders and subordinates in the palace were scurrying around in panic, he couldn't help but be surprised, and reached out to grab a subordinate who ran past him and shouted loudly: Hey, what's the matter? What's wrong?

Seeing that it was the king of Luoyang, the subordinate hurriedly saluted and said: "Lord Wang, the army of the imperial court has entered the city, Lord Wang, hurry up and flee for your life."

Hearing this, the king of Luoyang was furious, raised his hand and gave this scary slap in the face, and reprimanded him sharply: Nonsense, this king has more than 200,000 troops to defend the city, how can the army of the imperial court enter the city, who said it?

The subordinate covered his cheeks with his hand and was scared: Lord Wang, all ------ said so, I don't believe you ask someone else.

The king of Luoyang was so angry that he shouted: Get out, go back to your room and sleep, and if you dare to talk nonsense, this king will cut off your head.

The subordinate was so frightened that he hurriedly bowed down and answered: Yes, yes, the little one will go back to sleep.

With that, he turned and ran away.

The king of Luoyang looked at the subordinate who ran away and scolded angrily: Bastard things, I am afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

At this moment, Xiaomei ran over, and saw that the king of Luoyang had come out, so she hurriedly reported to him: Lord Wang, the big thing is not good, the imperial army has entered from the three gates in the east, west and south in three ways, and now the city is in chaos.

Hearing this, the king of Luoyang was extremely shocked: What, the army of the imperial court really entered the city, how did they break through the city gate and enter? And what about our army? Are they all asleep, are they dead?

Xiaomei Dao: Lord, there are traitors in our army, and they opened the three city gates to let the imperial army into the city.

Hearing this, the king of Luoyang was shocked and asked urgently: The traitor, who, who is it?

Xiaomei shook her head: It's not clear who it is, I analyze that it may be someone from the Xiahou Sect Leader who did it.

The king of Luoyang was shocked: What, the people of the Tianmen Sect

Suddenly, he nodded as if he understood: Yes, it should be them, many masters of the Tianmen Sect serve in my army, but why are they doing this?

Then, he said to Xiaomei in a very skeptical tone: By the way, isn't the Sect Leader Token of the Tianmen Sect in your hands, how dare they do this without your order, Xiaomei, it won't be your ghost, right?

Hearing this, Xiaomei was shocked, and hurriedly waved her hand and said: The prince has wronged me, Xiaomei will never do this, the prince is as important as a mountain to Xiaomei, how could Xiaomei betray the prince.

What's not, Xiahou Yinglan treats her like a sister, doesn't she betray Xiahou Yinglan like that.

After that, I thought about it for a while, and suddenly seemed to have an understanding: By the way, I think it may be that the Xiahou Sect Leader saw someone in the sect leave a legacy before he died, so he made it like this.

The king of Luoyang felt that this statement made sense, so he nodded his head and said: There is this possibility, alas, this king is negligent, this king is negligent.

What he said about negligence should be that he did not take the lead in time to eliminate the people of the Tianmen Sect who had been promoted to generals arranged by Xiahou Yinglan to enter his army.

But the premise of doing this is that he must know in advance a series of arrangements before Xiahou Yinglan's death. In other words, he had to know in advance about Xiahou Yinglan's passing on the position of the head of the Tianmen Sect to Li Yinglong before his death. Unfortunately, he didn't know about it.

Since he didn't know about this matter, then he would still think that Xiahou Yinglan's stand-in Xiaomei was the leader of the Tianmen Sect, and since that Xiaomei was still the leader of the Tianmen Sect, the Tianmen Sect was still in his hands and was used by him, so how could he take action to eliminate those Tianmen Sect people who were generals in his army.

So, in the final analysis, it's not a matter of negligence, it's a matter of wisdom, that is, his wisdom is far inferior to Xiahou Yinglan.

After that, he asked Xiaomei: Xiaomei, what is the situation in the city now? Is my army fighting against the imperial army?

Xiaomei shook her head: Lord Wang, except for those who surrendered, the rest of our army have fled from the North City Gate, I ------ we are finished, Lord Wang, you can go too, it's still too late to leave.

Hearing this, the king of Luoyang shook his head, and his tone was resolute: This king swears to live and die with Luoyang City, and this king will not leave.

After that, he looked at Xiaomei, and then waved his hand: Xiaomei, there is no need for you to stay and die with this king, you can go.

Xiaomei is reluctant: Lord, let's go with Xiaomei, and stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood.

The king of Luoyang waved his hand again: Let's go, let's go.

Xiaomei had no choice but to say: Lord, that Xiaomei is gone.

As he spoke, he turned and walked out quickly.

Then, just when Xiaomei walked more than ten steps away, the king of Luoyang suddenly raised his hand to aim at Xiaomei's back, and saw a black light shoot out of his sleeve and hit Xiaomei's heart, only to hear Xiaomei scream and fall to the ground, and her heart was deeply inserted into a short sword.

Xiaomei turned her head in pain and looked at the king of Luoyang and asked: Wang ------ Wang, you ------ ------ why did this ------- treat Xiaomei so much?"
