?．? 8]1?Z} The frightened people watched another army of tens of thousands of people subdue those officers and soldiers who had harmed them, and they didn't know what was going on for a while, they all looked at the new Liao army in surprise and suspicion, but no one dared to leave.

It didn't take long for Su Hansheng to bring over several officers of the rout, and the highest official among them turned out to be a general.

I saw that the general was not very old, about twenty-six or seventeen years old, his slightly white and fat face looked a little gray, and he was still scolding with an angry face, and he was tied up and escorted by the soldiers of the New Liao Army to Mo Li, and he still scolded himself.

Mo Li glanced at this general coldly, a sharp light shot out of his eyes, he didn't say anything, waved his hand, and shouted: "Cut down these scum who plagued the people!" ”

"What?!"

The general was taken aback, didn't care about scolding anymore, and said loudly: "Why did you kill me!" ”

"Why?"

As if he had heard some funny joke, Mo Li said coldly: "Just rely on your connivance with your subordinates to cause trouble and harm the people!" Isn't that enough to cut you? ”

"You...... Hello so bold! Didn't you just steal some food, and you would dare to kill me? Do you know who I am? The general said arrogantly.

"General Ben is not interested in knowing." Mo Li waved his hand.

"Wait!" The general panicked, and said inwardly: "Tell you, this general is Shen Shikui, the general of Yiyang, do you know who my father is?" I'm afraid I'll scare you to death if I say it! ”

"Say!" Mo Li was extremely impatient, with a look of disgust. It seems that this spelling father is not the Ming of modern people, it has existed in ancient times. It's just that looking at the arrogance of this guy, could it be that your father is Li Gang?

Even if your father is Li Gang, Lao Tzu will never show mercy, who told you to do evil in front of Lao Tzu?

Shen Shikui saw that Mo Li's face couldn't help but change, thinking that he was bluffed by himself, and said triumphantly: "My father is Shen Gang, the chief military officer of Changsha!" ”

Meow a!

There is Li Gang in modern times, and Shen Gang in the Ming Dynasty?

This name is suspected of being in the same vein, no wonder this product is another earth overlord!

Shaking his head, Mo Li retracted his thoughts, and still said coldly: "I don't care if your father's name is Shen Gang or Li Gang, since you are doing evil under my nose, General Ben will not show mercy!" ”

"Wait! You can't kill me! ”

"What else do you have to say?" Mo Li couldn't suppress the disgust in his heart.

"I am Yiyang's general, even if I commit a crime, I will be punished by the Changsha General Army or the Huguang Governor, where is your turn to kill and kill?" Shen Shikui said boldly again. The chief soldier of Changsha is his son, and Zhang Zhonghe, the governor of Huguang, has been scared away by the rebels, even here, Zhang Zhonghe does not dare to do anything with himself.

"Then do you know who my Moli is?" Mo Li said unhurriedly.

"Who are you?" Shen Shikui looked at the long line behind Mo Li, his heart was a little empty, but he quickly calmed down, although there were many people on the other side, but after all, it was a foreign soldier and horse, it was estimated that most of them were the guest army transferred by the imperial court to support Huguang to suppress bandits, where was the reason why the guest army dared to execute the local defender generals?

Thinking of this, Shen Shikui's heart settled down a lot, and a look of arrogance appeared on his white and fat face again, as if the other party would let him go in the next second, and apologize.

Mo Li said slowly: "General Ben is the chief military officer of the Huguang Expedition......

"Haha! Chief Soldier of the Levy Army! Shen Shikui couldn't help but interrupt Mo Li's words, laughed, and said contemptuously: "You are the chief military officer of the conquest, and the official position is greater than mine, but I am the general of Yiyang, and you are not subordinate to each other, and this general is not under your control!" ”

"Really? Wouldn't that general be able to control you and kill you? Mo Li looked left and right, and said neatly.

"Nonsense! Hurry up and release General Ben! ”

"And what about the rights of the Governor of Huguang?" Mo Li still said unhurriedly, "Does the Governor of Huguang have the right to behead you?" ”

"What?! Are you the Governor of Huguang? Shen Shikui was taken aback.

Mo Li's face turned cold, and he shouted, "Someone! Rectify the law on the spot for these scum who have caused trouble to the people and disregard people's lives! ”

"No, no! Don't kill me! Shen Shikui panicked, and no longer dared to rely on his identity as the son of the chief military officer of Changsha and the general of Yiyang, and hurriedly begged: "Lord Mo! General Mo! Please spare me! The last general must be driven by the saddle for you! ”

Mo Li smiled, unmoved, and with a wave of his hand, more than two dozen soldiers dragged Shen Shikui and the eleven Ming army routs to the side of the open space.

Shen Shikui and those Ming soldiers shouted unwillingly: "Lord Mo is gracious! The last general is also forced to be helpless! We didn't have anything to eat, we couldn't stand the hunger......"

"If you don't have anything to eat, you can rob the people of their rations? If you have nothing to eat, you will be able to dishonor the wives and daughters of the people? Are you human or brute? Mo Li shouted angrily, paused, and continued coldly: "Remember below, since you have that layer of skin on your body, you are a soldier, not a bandit!" The duty of a soldier is to defend the country and protect the people, not to let you kill the people! ”

As he spoke, he ignored Shen Shikui no longer and prepared to turn over and get on his horse and continue to hurry.

Shen Shikui and the other eleven Ming soldiers who did evil were quickly escorted aside by the soldiers of the New Liao Army and beheaded the public.

Eleven heads flew up in the air, and eleven pillars of blood couldn't stop gushing, not only the more than 1,000 Ming army routs were stunned, but even the thousands of people were also frightened.

Then, the crowd of the people, not knowing who it was, cheered first: "Good! Well done! These brutes, they should be killed! ”

The rest of the people cheered.

After the crowd calmed down a little, Mo Li rode his horse to the crowd and shouted, "Folks! I am Mo Li, the governor of Huguang, and I was ordered to go to Changsha to exterminate the rebels and thieves, you can rest assured, we are the new Liao army, the army that protects the people and defends the country! As long as we are here, we will never let you be harmed in any way! ”

Afterwards, Mo Li shouted to the more than 1,000 Ming army routs: "As a Ming soldier, you eat the food that the people supply you!" At this critical juncture, you should pick up the weapon in your hand and keep one side safe! Now, this officer orders you to go out with this officer, exterminate the rebels, and overtake the merits! ”

Where do the more than 1,000 Ming troops dare to say more, the bloody lesson is in front of them, and I believe that they will never dare to do evil in the future.

"Good! Good! ”

"The new Liao army is good!"

"Lord Mo is so good!"

"The new Liao army is so mighty!"

"I hope that the new Liao army will repel those thieves as soon as possible and let us return to our homeland......"

"Look at how majestic this army is! The military discipline is strict, just like the Qi family army back then......"

"That's right! Isn't this general surnamed Mo, I will call it the Mo family army in the future......"

......

There were bursts of cheers in the crowd, watching a group of soldiers of the New Liao Army with bright armor passing through quickly and neatly with majestic steps, rushing towards Yiyang with the murderous aura of Pingling, looking at this army with strict military discipline, the fleeing people couldn't help but come to their heartfelt admiration.

On the shore of Dongting Lake in early spring, the cold is gradually fading, and many tender green grass buds break through the soil, dyeing the field with the breath of spring, constituting a picture of early spring in the south.

In the picture scroll, a group of majestic soldiers of the New Liao Army marched towards Yiyang with the ambition of swallowing mountains and rivers, and marched towards Yiyang in high spirits, raising a lot of dust in the sky, injecting a strong vitality into the picture scroll of this early spring.

Two days later, Mo Li appeared under Yiyang City with an army of 30,000.

Cao Bianjiao's vanguard also arrived at Taojiang in time, routed the rebels who were attacking Taojiang, and approached Yiyang according to Moli's orders.

Yiyang was captured by Xiao Lianhao, the rebel Shuntian King Tu Yongzhong, four days ago, and after capturing Yiyang, Xiao Lianhao sent troops to plunder the towns around Yiyang, and it was Tao Dawu under Xiao Lianhao who attacked Taojiang.

Tao Dawu did not attack Taojiang, but was defeated by Cao Bianjiao and his troops, did not dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly fled back to Yiyang in a panic.

Xiao Lianhao heard that the imperial court had sent a large army to encircle and suppress, so he hurriedly recruited all the subordinates sent out to plunder the surrounding areas to resist the new Liao army, and at the same time sent people to Changsha for help.

Yiyang is located on the south bank of Dongting Lake, Zishui, Yuanshui, Lishui and other rivers flow through the territory, the north is the plain formed by the alluvium of lakes and rivers, the land is fertile, suitable for the growth of a variety of crops, known as the land of fish and rice.

"Backed by the snow peaks to view the lake, half into the mountains and half into the lake". The famous Snow Peak Mountain and the southern hills in Yiyang form a buffer zone here, making the scenery around Yiyang City very pleasant.

However, Xiao Lianhao's rebels were like a group of ugly ground rats that ruined this pleasant scene, and there was a wail everywhere inside and outside Yiyang City, and countless poor people were ruined by the beast-like rebels, and their corpses were scattered all over the field.

Although Xiao Lianhao's rebels have all shrunk back into Yiyang City, the evil done by the rebels can still be seen everywhere, and the towns and villages around Yiyang can still be seen everywhere Dilapidated villages, with a radius of dozens of miles, it is difficult to find people, and the scattered corpses are abandoned on the side of the road, no one to collect them, and let the hungry wild dogs bite them.

Seeing this tragic scene, the officers and men of the New Liao Army were all filled with anger, and they were eager to immediately cut down those rebels who had committed evil one by one.

Outside the city of Yiyang was a flat clearing, suitable for cavalry field battles. But now the rebels are hiding in the city and refusing to come out, and the cavalry is basically unable to wield it.

It seems that he had no choice but to swing the power of artillery to attack head-on.

Yiyang City is now guarded by more than 30,000 rebel Xiao Lianhao's troops, plus the people they have wrapped up are young and strong, and there are 70,000 or 80,000 people in Yiyang City to defend.

Moreover, because Yiyang City is located in the plain on the shore of Dongting Lake, and there are waterways for trade, it has always been rich, and it has always been the prey coveted by bandits and bandits in central Hunan Province, so this Yiyang City is also built quite tall and strong, and the city defense facilities are also very complete.
