Chapter 17: The Crisis in Gaoyou City
Soon after Zhang Shicheng occupied Gaoyou and ascended the throne as king, Zhang Shicheng, who had not yet sat hot on the dragon chair, heard a news that was very bad for him.
This news was accompanied by a million-strong Mongol army.
In September of the 14th year of Yuan Zhizheng, that is, in the winter of 1354 A.D., in the cold winter of October, the leader of the orthodox warlords at that time, the prime minister of the Great Yuan Dynasty, Timur, led most of the Mongolian cavalry at that time, and soon after Zhang Shicheng ascended the throne and became king, he came to the city and surrounded the small Gaoyou.
At the same time, Zhang Shicheng himself, who has not yet been happy and has not yet enjoyed the emperor's dream, is also trapped.
Some people find the name Timur a bit tongue-twisting, well, let's call him Tokhtar!
As the prime minister of a country, Totoku is first very angry in his heart, and he can even be said to be angry.
The prime minister of a country who is dignified by himself can't stay in the capital all day long, can't lie in a wide and warm tent, can't enjoy the company of lying horses, fat sheep, and singing beauties, and even wants to lead troops to fight in this ghost weather in the cold winter and wax moon, and no one will be happy.
What's even worse is that before the matter on his side has been dealt with, a rebellious bastard has emerged on the other side. is a dignified prime minister, running around the world all day long, not like an official, but a little like a short-term worker.
In this case, the mood of detachment is bound to be bad.
Aren't these people afraid of death?
Faced with thousands of their own scimitars, aren't they afraid of being killed?
Do they all have three heads and six arms, or do they have an indestructible golden body like an iron man?
I don't believe it, and I won't accept you.
Kill!
Kill them all!
Kill all of you people who dare to commit rebellion!
In view of this kind of angry psychology, as the commander of the first army of the million-dollar army, Tokhtar issued a chilling and even chilling order after receiving military reports that there were constantly rebellions and rebellions against the people, and after the only little patience he had been exhausted.
Lawfully kill on sight!
In the future, anyone who encounters a rebel does not need to report it, and will be killed on the spot;
In addition, if the rebels occupy the city, they will slaughter the city after the city is broken!
It's a terrible order.
Such an order sends chills to everyone from the day it is issued.
After the Yuan army, the chickens and dogs were not left;
The Yuan Dynasty stepped on it, and not a single inch of grass grows.
This was the status quo after the Yuan army at that time.
It was under the haze of this extremely terrifying killing that Zhang Shicheng's emperor gave Tokh a window to vent his anger, and after getting the news that Zhang Shicheng had killed the envoy of the Yuan Dynasty Zhao Lian and the prefect of Gaoyou Li Qi without persuasion, Toto's cold cheeks were covered with a faint cold light, and the slight smile at the corners of his slightly raised mouth gradually expanded, until the whole face was covered.
Zhao Lian and Li Qi are their lives and deaths, and I don't care if they die ten or eight Li Qi, what I care about now is who is rebelling, who dares to rebel in the eyes of this structure, and who dares to add fuel to the fire at the moment when the lord is angry.
At this time, whoever dares to rebel, I will kill whomever I want.
Whoever dares to be the emperor will be slaughtered!
Coincidentally, at this stall, Zhang Shicheng showed up, and he didn't know how to call the king and the emperor, so there was nothing to hesitate.
It's him, I'll cut you today.
In order to make yourself work hard to mobilize the people, I will take you under the knife;
In order to make yourself a million-strong hero, use your sacrificial sword.
Kill all these people who don't know whether they are alive or dead, slaughter you, a smuggler who doesn't know the height of the sky, and at the same time slaughter the entire Gaoyou City.
On this basis, he must also give full play to his prestige as the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty, where he passes, he will not be born early, and where he is killed, there will be no chickens and dogs.
Zhang Shicheng, I'm here.
And with me there are others.
There are not many people, only a million people.
Still, it's more than enough to kill you.
Since it's here, there's nothing to hesitate about.
A small Gaoyou, for his own million-strong division, a mouthful of foam can also make Gaoyou flood, first surround the entire Gaoyou City, surround him with water, and then lead his troops to attack the city.
After Tokhtar led the army to Gaoyou, he intensively implemented an almost crazy revenge plan.
At this time, in the face of the million-strong army that escaped, Zhang Shicheng must have regretted it.
Facing the millions of male divisions, standing in the dense black crowd under the city, Zhang Shicheng was afraid that he would regret it.
Aren't you idle?
Isn't this self-inflicted death?
Originally, the smuggler was a good worker, with a lot of money, a lot of money to spend, and a lot of money to drink, money to eat, what a happy life that kind of leisurely life was.
But since he became the king, he has been unable to deal with the major military affairs all day long, and the military battles have been non-stop, and he has not even had time to fart, let alone a beautiful woman.
Get busy, get busy, I admit it, who made himself the emperor?
But I, Zhang Shicheng, didn't recruit you to get off, let alone provoke you to get off, there are so many red turban troops next to you that you don't deal with, why don't you fight anyone, no one surrounds you, you just want to find me trouble!
What's even more odious is that even if he wants to disarm and surrender now, it is impossible.
Because after the soldiers came to the city, they had no intention of persuading them to surrender at all, and from the moment they came, they made up their minds to kill all the soldiers and then slaughter all the city.
The purpose is simple.
That's ...... Punish someone as a warning to others.
Make a living negative teaching material for those Diao people who still want to commit chaos and plot rebellion.
Let you never have the heart to rebel again.
At the same time, I will also pass you a message, which is: If you dare to rebel and commit rebellion, you will only end up like him, beheading all over the house and slaughtering the whole city.
After besieging Gaoyou, the coach did not seem to be willing to fight on a single line, and after besieging Gaoyou and ensuring that no Wang Baqisan could escape from his cage, he was full of interest and picked out a part of his men and horses, and divided his troops to besiege Liuhe.
It seems that he chose the strategy of Gaoyou Siege and not fighting, first practice his hands with Liuhe, and then clean up Gaoyou City when his hands are hot, and deal with Zhang Shicheng, a smuggler of salt.
At this time, it is not written in the history books who is the commander stationed in Liuhe, we only know that there is a contradiction between this person and Guo Zixing, since there is no name, we will temporarily call him Marshal A.
In the face of thousands of Yuan troops, the heads of people outside the city wall were black and oppressive, and Marshal A should have thought about surrendering.
Although it is humiliating to disarm and surrender, it is still very cost-effective compared to losing your head.
It's a big deal to turn the gun around and work with the Yuan army to eliminate his former teammates and kill those bastards who bullied him a few days ago.
Anyway, the one who has milk is the mother.
Whoever gives food, I will give his life to whomever I want!
The idea is very good, but the problem is that people don't give this opportunity, since the soldiers came to the city, Tokhtar didn't mean to close it at all, but directly issued an order to slaughter the city.
Looking at the menacing army of the Yuan Dynasty, Marshal A hated it so much that his teeth itched.
This group of animals, which only know how to kill, is no different from beasts.
In the face of such a strong military order, Marshal A disarmed and surrendered to the rebels.
After a plan failed, Marshal A, who was still breathing, set his eyes on another person, in order to survive, in order to keep him eating, Marshal A sent an envoy with a letter for help.
This person's name is: Zhu Yuanzhang.
And on his head, there is also a top boss that Zhu Yuanzhang himself has placed for himself: Guo Zixing.
It is in the city of Chuzhou behind Liuhe.
After getting the news that Marshal A was besieged by the Yuan army, first of all, he was happy to break a person, and the bright smile under his smug expression was enough to release flowers, he never thought that Marshal A, who had never been in contact with each other for a long time, would have today's achievements.
The anger that had been suppressed in my heart for a long time was completely released at this moment.
He is so happy, since he can't beat Marshal A, let someone else clean him up for me.
Clean him up hard, the more ruthless the better!
As long as he dies before me, I am happy, and the more painful he dies, the happier I am!
This person is none other than Guo Zixing.
It's okay if Marshal A doesn't come to ask for help, as long as he comes for help, I must humiliate and humiliate him.
Let this deflated San know that whoever dares to provoke me Guo Zixing will definitely not have good fruits to eat.
As the highest commander in the army, the distress letter sent by Marshal A was the first to be delivered to Guo Zixing's ears, and after confirming the identity of the other party, Guo Zixing immediately issued an administrative order.
It is strictly forbidden for the other party to enter the city and block the other party from the city gates.
And shouted at the city wall gate, the meaning was very simple, and the attitude was very resolute.
That is: Uncle, I won't send troops if I die!
As a messenger seeking troops, seeing that his mission could not be completed, it was his own dereliction of duty, and this envoy hurriedly cried about the severity of the situation in Liuhe.
This situation is urgent, and the lord must not slack off.
After the messenger who burned the monkey's ass boasted, what was exchanged for Guo Zixing's infinite silence.
Guo Zixing didn't pay attention to the other party's request at all, and he didn't even bother to reply to the other party, let you, the messenger, tell me about this, and I will admit that I am a dead person.
If you don't open the door, I just won't open the door, see what you can do!
The history books say: The envoy complained that he was very anxious, but Zixing did not answer.
In the environment of fighting wits and courage with Guo Zixing, this messenger's psychology must be collapsed, and his heart must have greeted Guo Zixing's ancestors for more than 18 generations, what kind of talent can give birth to such alternative characters as Guo Zixing, Guo Zixing, the uncle, is simply a wonder.
He would never have thought that the boss in the city would be such a scoundrel, simply a bastard scoundrel bastard.
If you can't do it, you will never do this kind of errand again in your life, especially if you don't deal with an alternative pervert like Guo Zixing, if you encounter this kind of rogue coach every time, it will only be a matter of time before you are driven crazy.
When the two sides were playing a game of silence, Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance alleviated the embarrassment of the other party.
First of all, Zhu Yuanzhang found Guo Zixing and said the stakes of the situation.
Roughly speaking: Now Liuhe is trapped, if you don't send troops to save Liuhe, Liuhe will definitely be defeated. If Liuhe City is defeated, then the next direction of the Yuan army's attack must be Chuzhou City, which is located behind Liuhe.
At that time, Chuzhou City will inevitably be in crisis, how can you, my lord, ignore the overall situation because of your own little grievances?
You can not listen to other people's words, but you must listen to your son-in-law's words.
His son-in-law's ability to fight is obvious to all.
If it is really as the son-in-law said, Liuhe is really defeated, then the Haozhou city where he is located will face the Yuan army.
When the time comes, it will only be you who is in crisis.
I'm really confused, confused.
How did you forget this stubble?
Quickly adjust the troops and relieve the siege of Liuhe.
The green mountains do not change the green water and the long stream, the sky is high and the earth is thick, and the account of the grandson of Marshal Jia will be calculated later.
It is now most important to address the immediate crisis first.
Marshal A, you turtle grandson let you go first, and when you have a chance, see if I don't beat you out of!
