Chapter 669: Unintentionally Responding to the Battle, Surrendering on the Ground (II)
After Huo Rongsheng led the army into Tianshui Pass, he immediately asked his subordinates to tightly seal the four exits of the city tower, and did not allow a single soldier guarding the gate to escape.
After doing this, he led tens of thousands of Qingteng troops to the city tower and killed those soldiers and horses of the Ji family. At the same time, the order was sent down to hunt down the personnel of the Ji family and those related to the Ji family in the city, exterminate the nine clans, and cut down the grass and eradicate the roots.
All relatives and friends who have anything to do with the Ji family are among those who are killed, regardless of men, women and children.
Huo Rongsheng thought that this Tianshui Pass was a pass he had knocked down. If you don't use brutal means to deter, then there will definitely be many obstacles when you hit other passes in the future.
Only now with a ruthless hand to severely deter, those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will die, will the defenders of other passes be frightened and dare not resist.
Ji Shan, the commander of Tianshui Pass, was trapped by the Qingteng Army and had no escape.
He said with a look of hatred: "Huo Rongsheng, don't be complacent. My Ji family won't let you be arrogant for a long time. In the near future, all the foundations of my Ji family will be born, and when the time comes, if you have great ability, you will not be able to escape death. ”
"Really?" Huo Rongsheng asked the soldiers to tie up Ji Shan Wuhuada, then slapped him, spit out, and sneered: "Is your Ji family very powerful?" Seems like that's all it takes, right? Didn't they just run away from the army that I killed? As long as they dare to come out, I will be able to wipe them out.
Also, I heard that there are not many real elite generals in your Ji family, and there are only a hundred thousand of them. I probably killed 30,000 or 40,000 just now, right? In this way, how many masters do you still have in the Ji family? As for the other Zhuzhou troops who have something to do with your Ji family, although they have a lot of numbers, they don't seem to have much combat power. Can you compete with me with all this waste? ”
"My Ji family has stood in Kyushu for a thousand years, how can you hope for it?"
Huo Rongsheng said disdainfully: "Your Ji family didn't fall before, it's just because Lord Wang didn't appear." Now that Lord Wang has appeared, it means that your Ji family is going to become a cloud of history. Otherwise, how could the less than 200,000 men and horses under my command flee in embarrassment with the 50,000 elite troops of your Ji family? ”
"Come on, give me this Ji Shan and a few other old things of the Ji family to Weiwu Pass. This group of Ji family thieves assassinated Lord Wang many times, and Lord Wang hated them to the core. I think Lord Wang really wants to deal with these people with his own hands, you guys quickly send them to Lord Wang, Lord Wang of the province is not sure. ”
"Yes, General Huo!"
Many soldiers rushed up, locked Ji Shan and some other Ji family elders with iron chains, and then pulled them straight to Weiwu Pass to report the good news.
Huo Rongsheng said again: "Pass my words, strictly control the granary in the city, and do not allow other idlers to approach." Later, General Zhang Gongqiong sent someone to hand over to them.
Also, the Yuelai Inn in the city was completely seized, and all the shopkeepers and servants of the inn were strictly interrogated. This inn is said to be the property of the Ji family, and of course, there are also ordinary people who run it. You have to scrutinize carefully, you can't let go of a Ji family, and you can't wronged an innocent person.
Also, although we have taken the main city of Tianshui Pass, some other cities in Tianshui Pass are still not under our control. After the transfer of troops for a day of rest, the whole army will continue to attack other cities in Tianshui Pass tomorrow, and it is necessary to take all of them within three days. ”
"Yes, sir!" Chen Chong and the others received the order and hurriedly beckoned their subordinates to go and deal with the matter.
"Zhang Feng, Sun Yang, the two of you have taken over the position of the city lord and the chief soldier of the main city of Tianshui Pass, and strictly control everything in the main city of Tianshui Pass. At the same time, we should find out all the previous unjust and wrongful cases in this city, arrest all those who were not arrested in the previous cases and those who committed crimes, and severely punish them, without tolerance, and be sure to give the people a satisfactory explanation and stabilize the people's hearts.
In addition, he urged the people of the city to participate in the rebuilding of the city, and promulgated the various regulations, regulations, and policies established by the king. If you encounter obstruction or disrespect for violating the order, all of them will be arrested and dealt with severely. All in all, I want you to make this city look new within three months, and to correct all the bad things that were previously wrong..."
"Your Excellency, I will do it immediately." Zhang Feng and Sun Yang responded.
After Huo Rongsheng passed on various military orders, he went down to the city tower and led many soldiers under his command to set up camp, adjust armaments, count casualties and other post-war matters.
On the second day, Huo Rongsheng's whole army was ready to go, and the troops were divided into six routes, heading towards the other six cities of Tianshui Pass and annexing them.
After three days in a row, the remaining six city pass guards were shot by Wang Mang, who was afraid of Huo Rongsheng's ruthless killer, so they didn't dare to resist, and directly opened the city gate and surrendered.
At this point, the entire territory of Tianshui Pass was controlled by Huo Rongsheng. And Huo Rongsheng was famous all over the world because of his invulnerable armor, and the heroes were shocked.
After Huo Rongsheng took Tianshui Pass, he did not immediately lead his troops to attack other passes, but cooperated with the newly replaced major city lords to deal with the affairs in the city.
He thought that if he took one city and immediately went to another city to attack, and did not strengthen the management of the city, then the city that was taken down would sooner or later have an accident, and the danger was very great.
On the twentieth day, after all the major defense affairs of the entire Tianshui Pass were basically straightened out, he continued to raise troops to attack the other passes.
And at this time, the prisoners he sent to Weiwu Pass were also sent to Wang Mang.
At Weiwu Pass, after Wang Mang received the captives sent by Huo Rongsheng, he immediately called Shangguan Ningxuan, Wang Jingyan and Yuezhi over, and asked the three of them to wield the butcher knife to kill these prisoners, and hung their heads on the city tower to show the public, in order to vent their hatred.
Ji Rou watched silently from the side, not feeling good in her heart.
She knew all these arrested Ji family elders, and there were even one or two who had taught her martial arts before. But at the moment, even if she wanted to save these people, she couldn't do it, because Wang Mang couldn't let go of these Ji family elders.
When the captives were all killed, Ji Rou said to Wang Mang: "Young Master Wang, I promised you to protect Wang Jingyan for two years. Now that two years have passed, it's time for me to go back. You promised me something at the beginning, can you tell me now? ”
Wang Mang asked: "Do you want to leave because I killed your Ji family elder and feel a little uncomfortable?" Of course, you have protected Jingyan for almost three years, and even last time you saved the lives of the three of me, if you want to leave now, I will naturally not stop you. It's just that I don't remember what I promised you at the beginning, can you remind me? ”
