5. Yuanyi is shackled

Li Wentong's eyes widened, and he grabbed the blade of the sword that Yuan Yi was about to stab, and his hand immediately bled and fell on Yuan Yun's clothes.

"Brother, come down, don't wait for Deyin! We will use death to wash away our sins, and at least we can save the lives of the whole city, which Tian Xu can't count on at all. ”

However, Deyin, who was pardoned by the imperial court, could not be expected.

Yuanyi's sword hung down, his head up, and the sun shone through, illuminating his two shoulders that were not leaning on the pillar

On the embankment of Qingzhang County, there are all Wang Qianxiu's camps and soldiers and horses, and under the embankment are full of silt swamps left by the river, stretching for two or three miles, and on the opposite side are Liu Zhan and Nie Feng's five thousand Wei Bo soldiers and horses.

Under the horn of the flag that was blown by the wind, Liu Zhan and Nie Feng looked at the mire, and then at the official and military camp on the high embankment, and their will was very, very depressed.

The two sides confronted each other silently and boringly.

In fact, Liu Zhan and Nie Feng were also waiting for the news of the fall of Feixiang City, and then they had a reason to go back to the Daimyo's Mansion.

In the end, Feixiang City, which was in a desperate situation, opened the city gate without waiting for reinforcements or pardon from the imperial court.

The battlements of the city wall, which winds for several miles, are full of soldiers of the Shence Longxiang Army, and the city gates are also full of Fenghua troops guarding them.

Wang Shao, the imperial court's military envoy, had just organized a batch of supplies and transported them over, but this was also the last time, because the rebellion in Zhaozhou had been completely quelled.

At the same time, the five thousand Shenwei Hall rear army commanded by Zhang Wanfu also came here to camp at this time.

Wei Bo, Liu Zhan, and Nie Feng, who got the news that Feixiang City was not guaranteed, quickly led the army to retreat to the Daimyo's Mansion.

After the official army captured Feixiang City, the entire Weibo Town was shaken and uneasy, and the people's hearts were panicked all day long.

In the tent on the outskirts of the city, Hun Xuan, Wang Qianxiu, Shang Kegu, Zhang Wanfu, Li Mian, etc., all stood.

Niu Yi, the overseer in a colorful robe, suddenly lost his original amiable smile and squinting eyes, he put on a straight face, and said with certainty, the court has a secret edict in my sleeve, and now is also the time to read it.

"What, all the rebels who have served for more than seven years will be beheaded?" When Niu Yi finished reading it, everyone was stunned like five thunderbolts.

Niu Yi's statement is that His Majesty and the rulers have discussed properly, and the previous Xuanhui made the Fifth Shouyi tell Yuanyi and his subordinates no less than three times, but Yuanyi and others are still evil, so the crime is unforgivable, and he and Li Wentong, Shi Dingfan, etc., were sent to the Jingshi Dog Ridge to be beheaded, and the rebels who followed them, if there is no distinction, all of them will be pardoned, then they will still be the seedlings and roots of rebellion, and those who have served for more than seven years are mostly rebellious accomplices, and they cannot be tolerated.

As for the Zhaoyi Army's team in Shandong this time, it served for less than seven years, but it was still rebellious, and all the troops were dispersed and divided into the Fenghua, Fengcheng and Shence Longxiang armies for observation and use.

"How should I arrange it?" asked Hun Yang curiously.

Niu Yi said that the three thousand Shence Longxiang army was stationed here, Linhuo, Yongnian and Feixiang, and then it was the Shence military town, and then Xiahou Zhongxuan led the history of the two states of Xu, Cizhou, Ma Zhengqing Xingzhou was the same as before, and then recruited united soldiers to help the Longxiang army to hold on.

It turned out that the emperor had no intention of returning the three states of Xu, Xing, and Ci to the Zhaoyi Army, but the emperor also told Wang Qianxiu through Niu Yi's mouth that these three states still draw 120,000 yuan in taxes every year for you to support the Zhaoyi Army.

"Whoa." The king is religious, and he can only accept it.

"In that case, let's go our separate ways. Remember, the imperial court did not have a Deyin against the prefecture, they were all rebels. Niu Yi said.

Knock knock, soon the head of Feixiang City sounded a fierce wooden sound, and then steamed hu, wheat cakes rained down, the rebellious Yuan Yi soldiers in the city wall, and their families all raised their hands, unkempt, in the churning dust scramble, tearing and gnawing, countless heads, under the eyes of the officials and soldiers on the city wall, crowded, like a school of fish at low tide.

Outside the city gate, Yuan Yi, Li Wentong and Shi Dingfan and other generals took off their armor and wore only black robes, kneeling on the ground.

When Shi Dingfan and the others saw Wang Qianxiu standing opposite, they all cried in shame, and some even begged Wang Qianxiu to say something for them.

At this time, in the minds of many people, the court remembered that they were all the old departments of the Zhaoyi Army with high hard work, and they were the children brought out by Li Baozhen, and they would definitely be able to open up the net.

But Wang Qianxiu had tears in his eyes, sighed, turned away, and couldn't bear to look at it again.

Fenghua supervised the army Niu Yi waved his hand, Fenghua soldiers and military officials came up one after another, put Yuanyi and others on the wooden flail, and then used mules and horses to pull, many people exclaimed, shouting loudly Where to send us?

"Send the dog ridge in the east city of the capital." Niu Yi's answer was sharp but clear.

Dog's ridge, lone willow tree, even the people here know that it is where the torturers are.

Crying erupted.

"Ah Yun, Ah Yun!" At this moment, Yuanyi kept struggling to turn his head, looking at his daughter who was still kneeling at the city gate and crying.

Niu Yi walked up to Yuan Yun and said to her with a smile: "Don't worry, the court's intention has come down, and I will send you to Wei Bo immediately to marry Wei Shuai's son." ”

Yuan Yun just looked at this person with a strange appearance and voice with a frightened face and tears on his face.

And a rumble sounded behind her.

The gates of the entire Feixiang City were closed, and then the officers and soldiers guarding him pushed all the vehicles up, stuffed them with solid cloth bags, and sealed them completely outside.

The mutiners and their families in the city, who were busy grabbing food, stared at the high walls on all sides, and the collapsed places had been erected wooden fences to fill the vehicles, and the places where there were no collapses were also full of officials and soldiers, but they all had one thing in common: the thunderbolts burning with the arquebus, and the bows and arrows full of arrows, and the crossbow machines that were ready to be wound, protruding from the battlements and the cracks in the grates, densely packed in a large circle, covering them all.

"Vain" the entire Feixiang City, full of dead silence, I don't know who it is, throwing down the steamed beard, crying and shouting such a word.

"In vain! In vain! In vain! Then hundreds of thousands, tens of thousands, shouted, mingled with the cries of women and children, shoulder to shoulder, feet on other backs, scrambling against the wall, climbing up, up and up.

They felt that the officers and soldiers were going to kill them.

The thunderbolt rang out, and the lead shot roared down, piercing the chest and head of the person who was crawling on top, and the blood and smoke burst out, and the dead fell halfway down the wall with a rolling belt, and the others screamed and fell to the ground.

But after a burst of gunfire, the officers and soldiers did not seem to make any further moves to shoot them.

The whole scene returned to dead silence.

At the collapsed tower, the monk Hun Xuan Ke appeared alone and shouted: "Those who have served for seven years or more can stay, and others can go out of the city."
