"Don't! Checkmate! ”

"Please, let us go!"

"General, you said you would spare us, you can't go back!"

The captives pleaded one after another.

Mo Li smiled, suddenly his face turned pale, and said: "That's right, General Ben said that if you can persuade the rebels in the city to surrender, General Ben will let you live, but now that you have failed, can you blame General Ben?" ”

After a pause, Mo Li said again: "So, I decided to borrow your heads to build a Jingguan to deter the rebels in Dengzhou City, which may be more useful than your persuasion to surrender!" ”

"General Mo, please give us another chance!" Among the captives, Li Yingyuan said in fear.

"Good! Then General Ben will give you another chance! Mo Li thought for a moment and said loudly: "Now you go and give Dengzhou City to General Ben, if you take it, everyone will be rewarded, General Ben who is willing to join our army will be treated equally, and if you are unwilling to join our army, General Ben will also give you a generous severance pay and let you go home;

If anyone cheats and cheats and doesn't work hard, I'm sorry, I'm going to be the master of murder! The tens of thousands of troops in the imperial court are not paper paste! Live or die, you can do it yourself, don't say that General Ben didn't give you a chance;

Of course, you can also gamble, after attacking the city, return to Kong Youde, and hide in the city, this general doesn't mind at all, there are not many of you 5,000 people, and there are a lot of you less, after hiding in, you had better ask God to bless us if we can't capture Dengzhou City, otherwise I will let you know what is a dilemma of life and death. ”

More than 5,000 captives looked at each other, but not one dared to speak. Mo Li didn't care what they thought, and immediately shouted, "Come on, give them the weapon." ”

Soon, the war drums under the city rumbled, and 5,300 prisoners with knives and guns in their hands, carrying ladders, pushed the crash car and rushed to the city wall of the south gate of Dengzhou.

Tens of thousands of troops such as the New Liao Army, Liaodong Zujia, Lu Bing, and Zhejiang Soldiers lined up in the rear, with swords and guns, but their main task was to supervise the battle, but if the prisoners dared to retreat or escape, they would be shot mercilessly.

In view of the tall and sturdy Dengzhou City, Zhu Dadian, Mo Li and others brought hundreds of artillery pieces from Laiyang City, including ten Hongyi cannons, and they were also in formation at this time, like a steel giant, pointing at Dengzhou City with murderous spirit.

More than 5,000 captives flocked to Dengzhou City like a tide, whether they were reluctant or not, in order to survive, they had to obey the orders of the officials and soldiers and go all out to attack the city. Otherwise, they will be beheaded and built into a fortress to deter the rebels in the city.

These 5,300 captives were carefully selected by Mo Li's people, basically there are some relatives and friends who have joined the ranks of the rebels in Dengzhou City, and Mo Li wants to use their relationship to impact the psychological defense line of the rebels in Dengzhou City, after all, most of the prisoners who are besieging the city under the city are their relatives, teach them how to be ruthless and shoot arrows at their relatives?

When Mao Chenglu saw that the officers and soldiers ordered the captives to attack the city, he couldn't help but be anxious and frightened, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to fire arrows. "Fire! Hurry up! Otherwise, they're going to attack! Deputy Marshal, give the order! ”

That's it!

Kong Youde sighed and said, "The matter has come to this, Chenglu, surrender!" ”

"What?!" Mao Chenglu was taken aback.

Kong Youde no longer paid attention to Mao Chenglu, turned his head to the left and right, and ordered: "Tell the brothers to stop resisting, let's surrender......"

Mao Chenglu suddenly pulled out his sword, stabbed at Kong Youde with a sword, and shouted: "Can't fall!" ”

"You ......" Kong Youde was only three or four steps away from Mao Chenglu, he didn't expect him to suddenly kill himself, he was caught off guard for a while, and was stabbed in the chest and abdomen by Mao Chenglu with a sword, and his face was distorted in pain, and he couldn't even speak.

Mao Chenglu gritted his teeth, his face was hideous, and he shouted: "Brothers, do it quickly!" ”

Saying that, he shook his wrist, stirred the long sword and pulled it out violently, only to see a stream of blood gushing out, Kong Youde's face was pale, he could no longer stand unsteadily, he was on the ground, and the blood flowed like an infusion.

Geng Zhongming, Geng Zhongyu and others were taken aback, they never thought that Mao Chenglu would dare to do this to Kong Youde.

Geng Zhongming came to his senses and shouted: "Mao Da! You are crazy! ”

"I'm not crazy! It's the deputy marshal who is crazy! Mao Chenglu said viciously with a hideous face: "Whoever dares to surrender to the official army, I will kill whoever he wants!" ”

Geng Zhongming was shocked and angry, and shouted: "You are looking for death!" Take him down, brethren! ”

The two brothers, Geng Zhongming and Geng Zhongyu, ordered their subordinates to catch Mao Chenglu, and hurriedly stopped the bleeding for Kong Youde. However, Kong Youde was stabbed by Mao Chenglu's sword, and his injuries were so serious that he couldn't stop bleeding for a while, and he fell into a coma.

Geng Zhongming and Geng Zhongyu ordered people to arrest Mao Chenglu, and Mao Chenglu was not to be outdone, and led his subordinates to fight with Geng Zhongming's brothers. For a time, the rebels were in chaos at the head of the city.

Mao Chenglu led 7,000 troops to defect to Kong Youde, and Laiyang lost more than 3,000 in the first battle, but there were still nearly 4,000 men and horses, and all of them were elite soldiers, and they had a strong strength among the Dengzhou rebels.

But Geng Zhongming and Geng Zhongyu brothers are not vegetarians, and their subordinates together have five or six thousand people, although the overall combat effectiveness is not as good as Mao Chenglu's Dongjiang soldiers, but plus Kong Youde's thousands of subordinates, they attacked Mao Chenglu together, and Mao Chenglu was suddenly a little overwhelmed.

The rebels at the head of the city fell into a melee, which gave the captives under the city a great opportunity, and most of the rebels were relatives, so no one was willing to resist and shoot the captives besieging the city.

Soon, the captives set up ladders to attack the city, began to control the various points of the city, and took the opportunity to storm the city gates, trying to open the city gates to welcome the army into the city.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Mao Chenglu hurriedly wanted to get out and leave, and escaped from Dengzhou Water City.

But when Brother Geng Zhongming saw him kill Kong Youde, how could they let him go? Bite it at the moment and don't let him pull out.

As more and more captives rushed to the city, the rebels in the city also laid down their weapons and stopped putting up useless resistance.

Mo Li, Cao Bianjiao, Zu Dacheng, Zhu Dadian, Lu Hanzhang and others under the city were overjoyed to see that the captives had entered Dengzhou City so smoothly, so Guan Feng, Cao Bianjiao, Li Guo, Zhou Yuji, Ma Jinzhong and other generals led their troops to Dengzhou City.

The south gate of Dengzhou City was soon opened by the officers and troops who had entered the city, and tens of thousands of troops swarmed in to surround Geng Zhongming, Mao Chenglu and others, who were still fighting.

Geng Zhongming forced Mao Chenglu to retreat, and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I, Brother Geng Zhongming and Deputy Marshal Kong, are willing to surrender!" ”

Mo Li came out of the crowd and said loudly: "You are Geng Zhongming?" Good! Since you know the current affairs and take the overall situation into account, then General Ben will naturally not treat you badly and take it away! ”

Geng Zhongming and Geng Zhongyu hurriedly threw down their weapons and walked towards the official army.

Mo Li's long knife pointed at Mao Chenglu and said, "Then who is this?" ”

Geng Zhongming hurriedly said: "My lord, he is Mao Chenglu, just now he refused to surrender to the official army, and he wanted to kill Deputy Marshal Kong, so our brother ...... with him."

Before the words fell, Mao Chenglu suddenly stabbed over, and the long sword went straight to Geng Zhongming's throat.

Geng Zhongming had already taken precautions, and when he saw this, he hurriedly rolled sideways, narrowly avoiding Mao Chenglu's fatal blow.

Mo Li was furious and shouted: "Presumptuous! The hairy thief is rampant! ”

Zhou Yuji, Xiao Yang, Ma Jinzhong and others had already come out on horseback to attack Mao Chenglu.

Although Mao Chenglu is fierce, how can he be the opponent of the generals? In addition, seeing that he was besieged by the official army at this moment, he had long lost his fighting spirit, and the reason why he stabbed Geng Zhongming with a sword was because he had the idea of dying together.

At this moment, seeing that a blow could not be achieved, the generals of the official army joined forces to besiege him, knowing that he could not escape, he sighed at the moment, and suddenly the sword body reversed, but wiped it on his neck, and he wanted to kill himself.

Zhou Yuji's Lieyang Wind Knife stretched out on the ground, just slashing Mao Chenglu's right wrist, and the blood flowed for a long time, Mao Chenglu was in pain, and his wrist could no longer hold the long sword, and he fell to the ground with a choking.

Zhou Yuji sneered: "Want to die? You first ask the general if he agrees! ”

Immediately, several soldiers under him stepped forward to grab Mao Chenglu and tied him up.

Mo Li shouted: "Take them all!" ”

There was no suspense in the next battle, Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming's subordinates had already surrendered, and the rest of Mao Chenglu saw that Mao Chenglu had been captured by the official army, so he naturally had no intention of resisting anymore, and obediently tied his hands and was captured.

Dengzhou was broken.

From the siege of Dengzhou City under the army to the march of the army into the city, it took less than two hours, and this battle can be described as easy and smooth, with nothing to be remarkable.

However, everyone was elated and excited about the victory. Because of the capture of Dengzhou and the capture of Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Mao Chenglu and other thieves, the Denglai Kong Youde Rebellion was completely pacified, and the victory came to an end.

The next thing is how to repay the merits to the above, that is, how to distribute the benefits after the war.

However, these are mainly decided by Zhu Dadian and Lu Hanzhang, because one of them is the commander and the other is the supervisor, and they naturally write the report.

Of course, before the good news, they did not act arbitrarily, but carefully verified their military merits with a realistic attitude, and exchanged views with Mo Li, Cao Bianjiao, Zu Dacheng, Tao Kewang and others.

After the battle is over, the soldiers send it up, and there will be no response for a while, and it will have to wait five or six days at the earliest, and the court will have to wait for a reward. As for what will happen to the reward, and how the various armies will be arranged, these will not be known until the will of the imperial court comes down.

The more than 30,000 soldiers of the New Liao Army cooperated with Zhu Dadian to restore order in Denglai and Shandong, and rebuilt the government management system, while waiting for the imperial court to be rewarded.

And Wu Sangui has not had any more moths since the assassination attempt at the gate of Laiyang City that day, and seems to have become honest.

However, being honest on the surface does not mean that you are honest in your heart.

According to the information obtained by He Zhenbei, some people saw that Wu Sangui had been frequently going back and forth between Zhu Dadian and Lu Hanzhang in recent days, but there was no way to know what Wu Sangui said to them......
