Chapter 975: Coercing the Wanderers
As the displaced people entered the city, their eyes swept around, and the extremely hungry expressions made the Liu Song soldiers standing guard behind the rejected horses feel chills in their hearts, and they were very nervous, lest they would be pounced on by these extremely hungry refugees and gnaw up their flesh and blood.
Zhao Junsheng, Li Bao, Jiang Hui, and the soldiers of the Dragon Guard who were disguised as outcasts were all looking around, and they were checking the surrounding defensive deployments.
Through observation, Zhao Junsheng found that in addition to the Liu Song soldiers behind the rejection of the horse, there were also many archers on the city wall who were waiting for them.
Zhao Junsheng whispered to Li Bao: "Once the fight breaks out later, let the soldiers first kill the Liu Song soldiers behind the rejection horse and snatch their shields, or use their corpses as cover, and then kill the city wall!" ”
"Understood!"
Halfway through the passage, Jiang Hui turned his head to look at Zhao Junsheng, Zhao Junsheng turned his head to look left and right, and then looked behind him, and found that most of the soldiers of the Dragon Guard Army had already entered the city, so he nodded to Jiang Hui and signaled that it was time to start.
Jiang Hui immediately roared: "Folks, there is food in Jianmen, follow me to kill these defenders and grab food, if you have food, you can go to southern Sichuan alive, kill——"
"Kill-" Zhao Junsheng and the others took off the fabric wrapped around the weapon, and with the weapon, they kicked down the horse and killed the Liu Song soldiers behind.
Before a soldier could react, he was cut in half by Zhao Junsheng, and he took a few quick steps in a row and rushed directly to the nearby deputy general Liu.
"Bold!" Vice General Liu was furious and carried a spear to kill Zhao Junsheng.
Zhao Junsheng swung his knife to split the spear and kicked the opponent in the chest, Vice General Liu was kicked to the ground, opening his mouth to protrude a mouthful of blood, and before he could get up, Zhao Junsheng stabbed him in the chest.
"Kill-" Zhao Junsheng roared, swinging his knife and slashing several Liu Song soldiers who rushed over, and the surroundings were empty.
"Quick, close the city! Shoot the arrows, and the arrows are to shoot them! What Pei Gui, the guard on the city tower, was worried about finally happened, and he immediately gave an order.
But at this time it was too late, after the killing in the city, the dragon guards disguised as homeless people at the gate of the city took out their weapons and killed the two teams of Liu Song soldiers standing guard, and the homeless people were in chaos.
An officer of the Dragon Guard shouted: "Don't be afraid, folks, only by killing these defenders can we get the food of Jianmen Pass, and with the food, we can go to southern Sichuan alive to find a way, rush in with me, rush in and grab the food!" ”
The homeless people were agitated, and the fear brought by the killing just now quickly dissipated, and they followed the dragon guards one by one into the Sword Gate Pass.
At this time, Zhao Junsheng quickly swung his knife to split the two arrows that came from him, quickly picked up a shield in front of him, turned around and shouted to Li Bao: "Li Bao, you take the first building to clean up the city to participate in Liu Songjun!" The second and third buildings follow me to the wall, kill—"
"Kill-" Hundreds of dragon guards followed Zhao Junsheng and rushed to the stairs of the city wall, some dragon guards stopped to open the package, took out their bows and crossbows, and quickly squatted on the ground to release arrows at the Liu Song archers on the city wall.
"Whoosh ······" The archers of the Liu Song army suffered heavy losses due to carelessness, and the situation was quickly controlled by the archers of the Dragon Guard, and the threat of the archers of the Liu Song army to the Dragon Guard army was greatly reduced.
Zhao Junsheng led a large number of men and horses from the staircase of the city wall, and faced several Liu Song soldiers with spears stabbing over, he swung his knife and slashed continuously, splitting their spears, and then rushed into the middle of them, killing one with one sword, and quickly killing four people.
"Follow me!" Zhao Junsheng took the lead in rushing up the stairs of the city wall with a blood-dripping combat knife, and the Dragon Guards behind him were all heroic and warlike warriors, and at this time, the emperor personally led the team to fight, and they were all fierce and fierce.
One by one, the soldiers of the Liu Song army rushed down from the city wall, Zhao Junsheng continued to swing his knife and kept chopping, one by one the Liu Song soldiers were cut over, and arrows kept shooting above his head, he held his shield and rushed up quickly, and rushed to the city wall with a bloody road.
Jumping onto the city wall, his vision lit up, but a large number of Liu Song soldiers rushed over.
"Kill me!" Zhao Junsheng brandished his war knife and roared, and a row of stabbing spears were all cut off by him, and then one after another, Liu Songbing was constantly cut down.
The Dragon Guards behind him also rushed up to join the battle group, the morale of the Dragon Guards was completely raised, and the morale of Liu Songbing, who was raided, plummeted one by one, and they were frightened, and they did not dare to fight recklessly, and they were killed by Zhao Junsheng and the Dragon Guards and retreated again and again.
In a moment's time, Zhao Junsheng led the Dragon Guards to the city tower, and the Jianmen guard brought Pei Gui with a spear to kill him.
Zhao Junsheng rushed forward with a knife, "Dangdangdang······" The two fought six or seven times in an instant, Zhao Junsheng's war knife was suitable for foot combat, Pei Gui's spear was restricted, and he was pressed and beaten after being close to Zhao Junsheng, and he had no power to fight back.
"Puff puff ······" In the blink of an eye, Zhao Junsheng's Wind Knife Technique created more than a dozen wounds on Pei Gui's body, and Pei Gui was cut into a bloody man, and there was no intact place on his body.
After a flash of blood, Pei Gui's head was cut off by Zhao Junsheng.
As soon as Pei Gui died, Liu Songbing was completely chaotic, and after losing control and organization, they became headless flies one by one, and were quickly wiped out by the Dragon Guards one by one.
"Report-" A Dragon Guard Tooth Master ran over and reported to Zhao Junsheng: "General, all the Liu Song troops on the city wall have been cleared, and there is no one alive!" ”
Zhao Junsheng raised his sleeve and wiped the blood on his face, walked to the inner wall battlement and looked down, Liu Songbing in the city had been solved by the Dragon Guards and the homeless people at this time.
Zhao Junsheng immediately ordered: "Leave one by one to guard the city wall, and the archers are ready!" The others follow me down to stabilize the situation! ”
"Yes!" One by one, the soldiers remained on the walls.
Zhao Junsheng took the remaining dragon guards to the city wall and joined Li Bao with Jiang Hui, Lin Jinghui and others.
"How? Has Liu Songjun been purged? Zhao Junsheng asked.
Li Bao gasped and replied: "All are cleared, and all the people on the other side of the South City Gate have been killed by us, and now the last general has sent people to control the South City Gate, and no one has escaped!" ”
"That's good!"
Zhao Junsheng looked at Lin Jinghui and Jiang Hui again and asked, "Have you found the granary of Jianmen Pass, and how much grain is in it?" ”
Lin Jinghui clenched his fists and said: "I found it, but there is not much food, save a little, two bowls of gruel per person per day, only enough for these homeless people to eat for three days!" ”
Zhao Junsheng quickly took out the map and looked at it, looked up at Jiang Hui and asked, "Can you reach Fushui Pass in three days?" ”
Jiang Hui said: "It should be possible!" ”
Zhao Junsheng immediately said: "Okay, you tell all the displaced people now that there is not much food, we only have three days of food, two bowls of gruel per person per day, and we must rush to Fushui Pass within three days, otherwise we will still be hungry, and we can only eat in Fushui Pass!" ”
"Yes!"
Jiang Hui immediately ran up to the city gate, most of the people in the city were dragon guards, and only a few homeless people poured in, and most of the homeless people were still outside the city.
"Fellow villagers, we have snatched the food from Jianmen Pass, but the food is only enough for all of us to eat for three days, and three days is only enough for us to walk to Fushui Pass, so we must arrive at Fushui Pass before the food is eaten, and then look for food in Fushui Pass, now you all don't squeeze, don't panic, all pass through Jianmen Pass in turn, everyone stop at the south of Jianmen Pass and wait to receive food, I have sent someone to set up a pot stove outside the south city wall, and you can make a fire to cook porridge immediately!"
Hearing that everyone had something to eat, the homeless people under the city wall quieted down, entered the city in order, and were no longer crowded, it was obvious that Jiang Hui played a considerable role.
Zhao Junsheng's plan is to coerce these homeless people to kill them in Shuzhong in one go, and then spread from Shuzhong to all sides, but how can he control these homeless people? Hope, Survival, and Food!
Zhao Junsheng only left a small number of troops to clean up the corpses of Liu Songjun's corpses and weapons, bows and arrows, and most of the soldiers were sent to maintain order among the displaced people, and to protect the food found from the Jianmen Pass, which was the life-saving food of these displaced people, and must not be robbed by the displaced people, so his plan could not be realized.
It took a full hour for tens of thousands of displaced people to reach the outside of the southern city wall through the Jianmen Pass, densely packed with people, all waiting for the hot porridge to be cooked, and a hundred strong men armed with sharp blades and bows and arrows gathered around a pile of sacks of grain, and kept strict guard against the surrounding homeless people.
Jiang Hui came over and said to the displaced people: "Fellow villagers, these grains are all the grains in the Jianmen Pass, they are all here, we have to rely on these grains to get to Fushui Pass, I can guarantee that everyone can drink a bowl of porridge every meal, but if everyone robs, then the vast majority of people will have nothing to eat, they will starve to death, all those who want to come and grab the food, I hope you give up this idea, because what you do will make you the public enemy of everyone, you will be angry, and you will be beaten to death!" ”
Some of the homeless people who were eyeing this pile of grain hesitated when they heard this, turned around and left silently, waiting for the porridge to go.
As the fire became angry, the rice in the cauldron was boiled and boiled, and the aroma of the porridge was boiled out, and it was scattered in all directions, and the homeless people gathered around with pottery bowls.
Jiang Hui immediately arranged for the young and strong displaced people to maintain order, and then let all the displaced people line up to receive food, the more chaotic, the lower the efficiency, the more disciplined, organized, and efficient, which has been tested in practice.
"Don't squeeze, queue, queue, I guarantee that each of you can get a bowl of porridge, if you squeeze it like this, many people won't be able to eat a bite tomorrow, it's too delayed, hurry up, queue up!"
Jiang Hui led hundreds of young and strong homeless people through a round of slaves, and finally made all the homeless people line up to receive food in order.
The number of pots is limited, and after cooking three batches of gruel in a row, everyone finally drank a bowl of hot porridge, with this bowl of hot porridge, the spirit of the displaced people is different, this is life-saving porridge!
This bowl of porridge made Jiang Hui's prestige directly rise among the homeless people, except for a few homeless people who were dissatisfied with his control of food, most of the people began to support him, and it was not until now that Zhao Junsheng really controlled these homeless people, and the next thing was much easier.
