Chapter 661: The Fall of Pluth County
A moment later, Qu Cheng, the chief general of the Yanling Army, and Yan Mo, the deputy general, led their respective guards to the small soil slope where Zhao Hongrun was. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as they met, Zhao Hongrun saw Yan Mo with a little regret on his face, so he smiled and teased: "What, can't you wait to accept the reward that Yan Lingjun deserves?" ”
The reward in his mouth refers to the seizure of those rich and unkind nobles in the city of Gongxian County, and for the nobles with a good reputation and the rest of the people, Zhao Hongrun has already issued a strict order: no violation!
After all, Zhao Hongrun is working to build a positive public opinion in the Wei army, and any crime that is not allowed will be punished with severe military discipline.
As for things like the seizure of the Wan family's family property, although it is also a robbery crime, Zhao Hongrun deliberately ignored it: that kind of guy has no human rights.
"Your Highness, look at what you said......" After listening to Zhao Hongrun's ridicule, Yan Mo said with a wry smile: "The last general is alone, and he has not yet been married, one person has enough food and drink, what do you want extra money?" …… The last general was just worried that the newly surrendered soldiers did not know the military discipline of our Yanling army, and besides, they had just won, and the soldiers were excited, I was afraid that Zou Xin would not be able to control the situation, and some ...... would happen Bad thing. ”
Bad things, Yan Mo said very vaguely.
You must know that since ancient times, the victorious army can wantonly loot and bully the soldiers and civilians in the city after conquering the enemy city, which has been an unwritten practice for hundreds of years, and it is also the ugliness of war.
Don't think that the 20,000 soldiers of the newly descended Yanling army are the main army of the Chu State, and naively think that they will not commit any crimes against the residents of the city after breaking through the enemy city, you must know that the looting and massacre after the war have been an effective way for these tense soldiers to exert their strength and vent their negative emotions since ancient times.
Moreover, the looted wealth was also an important source of income for the soldiers of this era.
Especially in a country like Chu, which is overcrowded, and even if you are a soldier, you can't get much money.
Some people may say that the residents of Ju County are also Chu people, and the Yanling army, whether it is the old department or the newly surrendered Chu army, are also Chu people, can the Chu people still loot and slaughter the Chu people?
In fact, this question does not need to be answered at all: why are the nobles of the Chu State, led by the Xiong clan, also Chu people, committed to squeezing the blood and sweat of their compatriots, and treat their compatriots with an attitude that is not as good as a domestic dog?
Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that even if the Zheng army of Chu surrendered to Yanling, it is possible to do ugly deeds in Hao County.
Of course, this is what Zhao Hongrun has always resisted, after all, the Yan Ling army is now hanging on the surrender of the Wei army, and his every move directly affects the reputation of the entire Wei State, how could Zhao Hongrun tolerate the black sheep who corrupted his Wei State reputation?
However, I believe that those soldiers of Yuanxiangcheng Chu also know this, after all, they have been in the Yanling Army for a few days, and they have naturally heard about the military discipline of the Yanling Army, so they will not have the courage to disobey Zhao Hongrun's order.
It's just that in case, there is no guarantee that no one will be carried away by the joy of victory, and leaving behind the military discipline that Zhao Hongrun has repeatedly emphasized, Yan Mo is also wary of this.
"This matter, leave it to Zou Xin, according to the king, Zou Xin is also a very capable general, he will be measured." Saying that, Zhao Hongrun paused and continued: "Qu Cheng, Yan Mo, this time this king invited you to come over, because the crows conveyed the emergency military situation to the king, it is said that Fu Li Sai sent a reinforcement army of about 30,000 people, and at this moment is in a hurry to come to Hao County, you immediately lead the troops to Xiaoding Mountain, that hilly terrain is complicated, and it is the only way for Fu Li Sai Chu soldiers to come, you might as well set up an ambush there." ”
……
Qu Cheng and Yan Mo glanced at each other with strange expressions.
Immediately, Qu Cheng took out the map of the army from his arms, and found the Xiaoding Mountain mentioned by Zhao Hongrun on the map, which was indeed an excellent ambush location.
It's ......
Qu Cheng and Yan Mo looked at each other again, speechless in shock.
Although they had already heard Wei Jiao, Lu Mu, Mu Qing and other sect guards mention it, saying that His Royal Highness King Su of their family has an unforgettable memory, as long as they have seen it once, they will not forget it no matter what.
At first, it seemed that Qu Cheng, Yan Mo and other generals just believed it perfunctorily, but they gradually discovered that His Royal Highness King Su in front of them was really as the Zongwei said...... Terror.
Why Terror?
If your enemy is the one who keeps the map in his head all the time, you'll be terrified.
Because it means that this "enemy" is invulnerable, and you can hardly hide any of your actions.
Fortunately, I can't be His Highness's enemy......
Yan Mo secretly wiped his sweat.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Qu Cheng and Yan Mo suddenly didn't speak, Zhao Hongrun frowned and urged: "Without further ado, you two will immediately lead the troops there, and here in Gongxian County, this king and the Fen Jun army will take care of the aftermath for you, so as not to swallow the rewards that should belong to you." ”
"Your Highness is serious, how can the last general not be able to trust Your Highness?"
After saying a few words, Qu Cheng and Yan Mo immediately gathered the old headquarters of the Yanling Army under their command and took them to the area of Xiaoding Mountain.
As for the nearly 20,000 newly surrendered Chu army of Yuanxiangcheng, Zhao Hongrun considered that this army had newly surrendered, and they still did not trust the Yanling army and Zhao Hongrun very much, if they were transferred to Xiaoding Mountain after the city was broken, it might arouse their suspicion - didn't he say that if he broke through Gongxian County, he would give us the wealth of the Wan clan and other nobles in the city? Is it a lie?
Considering the possibility of such emotions, Zhao Hongrun had no intention of letting the nearly 20,000 newly surrendered soldiers participate in the ambush battle at Xiaoding Mountain.
Anyway, there are only 30,000 troops who rushed from Fulisai to help Gong County, as long as Qu Cheng and Yan Mo can successfully ambush this army, the difference of about 10,000 people is actually nothing.
After all, the Yanling army had just captured Gongxian County, and its morale was booming and its hand was hot.
In contrast, Zhao Hongrun was more worried about the Qi County side.
Although there are only 10,000 troops in Fu Lisai to help Qi County, it is not so much reinforcement as the mobilization and deployment of troops and horses, maybe Fu Lisai's defenders do not know at this moment that half of Qi County has fallen into the hands of the Shang Shui Army.
But having said that, most of the current war in Qi County has not ended, and a 10,000-strong Chu army reinforcement has appeared for no reason, which is likely to have an adverse impact on the Shangshui army.
Fortunately, the Green Crows have also reported this matter to Wu Ji, and I believe that Wu Ji and Nanmen and others will also respond accordingly.
"Your Highness, the Fencheng army has entered the city."
Just as Zhao Hongrun was pondering, Zong Wei Chang Wei Jiao reminded him.
Zhao Hongrun looked up into the distance, and sure enough, he saw the Xiwei Battalion of the Fencheng Army in the distance, which was slowly entering the city under the leadership of its battalion general Cai Baohu and deputy general Xu Wei.
As was the case yesterday, the reason why the Xiwei Battalion of the Fencheng Army was here was just to provide a cover for the Yanling Army and guard against some unexpected emergencies.
For example, a reinforcement from the Chu State suddenly came from the direction of Chengfu County in the northwest.
And at present, the 5,000-strong Fencheng Army's Xiwei Battalion is stationed in Gongxian County, not to compete with the Yanling Army, but to maintain law and order in the city under the entrustment of Zhao Hongrun.
After all, Zhao Hongrun was really a little worried, whether the nearly 20,000 newly surrendered soldiers of Yuanxiang City would be carried away by the victory just now, so that they would kill and loot in the city to vent their negative emotions, thus affecting the reputation of their Wei army.
"Well, I'll go into the city later."
Nodding, Zhao Hongrun, together with the Zongwei and Su Wangwei, went down the dirt slope and joined the Xiwei camp of the Fencheng army in the distance, and under the protection of the latter, they slowly entered the county.
I have to say that the county that has just been conquered is still shrouded in a tense atmosphere.
According to the report of the crows, the commander of the county guard, Sun Shuke, led a remnant army to resist to the death in the city, but unfortunately, in the siege war since ancient times, once the attacker broke through the city gate and attacked the city, there was almost no possibility of being defeated again.
Unless a reinforcement arrives at this time, even if Sun Shuke has great ability, it will be difficult to recover the defeat.
Because, the Chu army in Haoxian County has lost!
Therefore, Zhao Hongrun was not worried about whether the nearly 20,000 new Chu troops could completely control the city, in contrast, he was more concerned about whether this army had done anything bad in the city.
However, it turned out that the main army of Chu was worthy of being the main army, and when there was still resistance in the city, the generals were not carried away by the victory, and were busy looting the wealth, and Zou Xin, the general in charge of commanding this army, was still commanding the battle in an orderly manner and directing the attack on Sun Shuke's deployment.
"Your Highness, the whole bone has been gnawed by Yan Lingjun, so let me drink some soup too."
When he heard that there was still resistance in the city, Cai Baohu licked his face and pleaded in front of Zhao Hongrun.
Not to mention, because this battle belongs to the Yan Ling army, there is no chance for him to show his skills, but it really suffocates him.
Glancing at the helpless expression of Xu Yan, the deputy general of the Xiwei Battalion, Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "You can only participate in the battle in your own name, you must know that this battle belongs to the Yanling Army, even if you make meritorious deeds, this king will not give credit." ”
"What do you want that thing to do?"
Cai Baohu smiled, and ran away with the brave team.
I have to say that this is a general who is purer than Yan Mo, Wu Ji and others, and yearns for a more pure, fighting feeling on the battlefield.
To put it bluntly, they are outright militants and war maniacs.
The world is very big, and there are always some strange guys.
About halfway through, with the selfless help of Cai Baohu and the group of militants of nearly a thousand or so brave teams under his command, Zou Xin of the Yanling Army finally took control of the entire city.
At this time, the soldiers and soldiers of the original phase city in the city began to be busy seizing the wealth that should belong to them.
However, due to the military discipline of the Yan Ling army, they did not invade the people in the city unlawfully, but led the team into the mansions of those nobles who were rich and unkind in the past.
Regarding this matter, Zhao Hongrun chose to remain silent.
Although he knew very well that those nobles would be killed nine times out of ten, and the ladies in their mansions would probably also be insulted.
However, this is already the result of the most restrained.
Some ugly behaviors left over from ancient times to the present, that kind of unwritten thing, even if it is Zhao Hongrun, is powerless to reverse, the only thing he can do is to minimize the encroachment on Xuan County, so that this city will not suffer the tragedy of the Wei State Zhaoling in the past.
And when he sighed, Cai Baohu and Zou Xin came together.
The two of them threw a Chu general who was tied up with five flowers in front of Zhao Hongrun.
Take a closer look, it is Sun Shuke, the guard of Hao County. (To be continued.) )
