Chapter 735: Disaster of Soldiers (7)
When he was young, Han Qi feasted on chicken and returned to the city in a hurry, and Jiang Jie led 500 people to be stopped outside the city and not allowed to enter.
Seeing Han Qi gnawing on the chicken leg with a clear conscience, Zhou Kong was extremely angry:
"Eat, eat, eat, you're not afraid that Bailiyan will be poisoned and eat you to death."
"This can't be, poisoning the last general, what good can he get."
"Fool, eat you to death, where will he fall under the anger of the general, then he only needs to buy the slave army and fight with us, and finally they will enter the city to clean up the slave army, and the gold, silver, treasure and city are not all theirs."
Hearing this, Han Qi's smug spirit suddenly disappeared, and the chicken he ate in his mouth suddenly spit on the ground, and he hurriedly said:
"General Zhou, this is not enough, they really want to do this, how can they win the trust of others in the future."
"It's up to you to talk about it."
Han Qi was stunned again:
"But didn't you just say what happened to the end of the killing?"
"The human heart is sinister, you know!"
"Oh......"
Han Qi nibbled on the salted chicken again, thinking that it would be the same if he died early or late.
At this time, Funk, who had never spoken, was dizzy because of excessive blood loss, and he endured the pain in his left hand and said:
"Whether it is a battle or a surrender, please ask General Zhou to decide."
"Alas......" Zhou Kong sighed: "Han Qi, bring it in the future." ”
"No!"
A moment later, Jiang Jie entered the city from the north gate and rode to the office, although he was prepared in his heart, at first glance when he saw the female pawn, Jiang Jie still felt weird, especially when he saw Zhou Kong sitting in the right seat, and a huge scalding scar on the left side of his face, which made him hateful and surprised.
"Shhh...... It's you! ”
Zhou Kong also recognized Jiang Jie, and he was a little calmer:
"It's the general, I didn't expect it."
"I really didn't expect that the castle guard would be a woman!"
"What's wrong with the woman, the woman will lose to you man." Zhou Kong asked rhetorically.
Jiang Jie was a little stunned, so he avoided talking about it:
"On the order of the deputy marshal of our army, I came to accept the surrender of your army to the city, this is my deputy marshal's handwritten letter, please General Zhou to take a look."
"Little lotus seed, bring it."
"Yes."
Xiaolianzi stepped forward to take the letter, Jiang Jie glanced at it, and exchanged the other party's white eyes.
Dismantling and looking at Bailiyan's letter, the format is neat, the content is solemn, the wording is full of good words, Zhou Kong swept the flattering words at a glance and ten lines, and the focus fell on the words "Autumn has not committed any crimes".
Holding the letter and signaling to Jiang Jie, Zhou Kong said:
"Bailiyan's words can count!"
"The deputy marshal is benevolent and righteous, if there is no faith, how can he send hundreds of thousands of soldiers here to fight. Your army fled to our camp in the soldiers, our army all treat each other with sincerity, where our army passed, did not levy a penny of taxes, on the contrary, Xianguo added more than 2 million stones of grain and grass in a year, millions of copper money, if our army is not benevolent, how can we raise troops to drive straight into here. General Zhou, please. ”
"Then why did you threaten and slaughter me Zhaocheng several times, did you give the dog all the benevolence and righteousness of Baili Yan!" Zhou Kong asked.
"Since ancient times, Taoist soldiers have not tired of deceit, and whether to slaughter or not lies in General Zhou, not in the deputy marshal. Even if the deputy marshal is benevolent and righteous, there are hard knives and soft knives, and there is no need to kill people by yourself. ”
"Humph!"
Zhou Kong was furious, she heard it, if she didn't surrender, Baili Yan would let the slave army come to slaughter the city, and the Xian army would naturally be wiped out.
"It is said that Bailiyan is treacherous, and it is indeed 'worthy of its reputation'. You go back and tell Bailiyan that you could have surrendered, but it was Zhaocheng that would have descended, not Bailiyan. ”
"No matter who demotes, the deputy marshal will not care about the gains and losses of one person. Please ask General Zhou to order the north gate to be disarmed, and the general will take over immediately. ”
At this time, Zhou Kong looked at Han Qi and said:
"Han Qi!"
"The end will be."
"Take Ben's warrant and open the door!"
"No!"
After receiving the warrant, Han Qi took two steps forward:
"General Chiang, please!"
"I'm tired."
After the two left, Zhou Kong's eyes were dark, and he collapsed on the seat with weakness, and Xiaolianzi hurriedly stepped forward:
"General Zhou, are you alright?"
Zhou Kong seemed to be much haggard in an instant, her eyes were dull and her face was pale, and she said weakly:
"It's okay, order all battalions to strengthen the vigilance to the west and east, after Bailiyan enters the city, he will soon clean up the chaotic army."
"Yes!"
Half of Zhou Kong was half dead for Baili Yanqi, half was tired of fighting for days and days, and he was tired of malnutrition, and the former accounted for the majority.
She never understood that in the past twenty days or so, Zhaocheng had ended inexplicably and inexplicably.
Jiang Jie successfully took over the north gate from Han Qi, returned to the camp and told Bailiyan the truth, hearing that Zhou Kong was a woman, Bailiyan was also shocked:
"I really didn't expect that it would be a woman sitting in Zhaocheng."
"That's not all, this woman has a burn scar on the left side of her face, it is the woman of the six old and young who was captured in the forest that day, it seems that the martial arts are very amazing."
"Yes, it seems that what I expected was right, the strategy of the guards sitting in Zhaocheng is extraordinary, but I don't want it to be a woman. He even ventured deep into the vicinity of our army to investigate, which shows that he was suspicious of our army's motives at that time. ”
"In addition, Zhou Kong also said that he would only descend to the city, not to the marquis."
Hehe, she was not convinced. Let her go, it is also rare for a woman to have such a heart, and she ordered the front army to follow me into the city, and the rest of the battalions continued to besiege the east and west gates. No one is allowed to leave the city through the east and west gates without the order of the commander. ”
At this time, Xu Jin said:
"Deputy marshal, the front army is only more than 4,000 people, is it too little. In the event of a recurrence of the rebels, or if something unexpected happens, there will still be nearly 50,000 rebels in the city. ”
"It's okay, I expect that this woman in Zhoukong is pure and kind-hearted, and there will be no recurrence. In addition, he gathered up all the bags of jerky from the battalions and brought them with me into the city. ”
"No!"
Bai Liyan is not worried that Zhou Kong will have a recurrence, first of all, she is a woman, and the psychological endurance of a woman when she is hit is inferior to that of a man of the same level.
Secondly, this kind of competitive woman is usually obsessed, and the things that are recognized are often done to the end, Zhou Kong has this characteristic, and has suffered several times to persuade her to surrender, she just doesn't surrender, she has to talk about a high bottom.
When entering the city, it was already past the ugly time, Bailiyan did not feel sleepy at all, and rode Feiyu all the way to the north of the city with full spirit, and the rebels saw the divine beast under Bailiyan's crotch, and they were all dumbfounded and shocked, no less than the mood when Bailiyan found Jianbao.
Even in the eyes of many rebel soldiers, Jianbao was a god-like horse, and it was providence that the Xian army was invincible.
Arrived at the administrative office, the inside and outside were heavily guarded, Han Qi was already waiting outside the mansion, Bai Liyan turned over and dismounted, and stepped forward and said:
"General Zhou and General Fang can be in the mansion?"
"It's all here, General Baili, please."
"Hmm."
Han Qi led the way in front and came to the main hall in the front yard, under the corridor outside the main hall, there were many black-armored female pawns, not four or five hundred, but more than three hundred.
Previously, I heard that there were female soldiers in the city, and Bailiyan was unbelievable at first glance, and she didn't think about it at all, so it can be seen that the mindset and the inertia of consciousness are paralyzing and careless, and she almost suffered a big loss, and her magical powers can be said to be painstaking.
Entering the room, it can be seen that there is a strong man in his fifties hanging his left arm on his chest on the right side, a row of female pawns and other thousand commanders on the left, and a woman of twenty-seven or eighteen sitting in the middle, the woman is wearing a helmet, and her eyes are complicated, with both anger and unwilling loss.
The huge burn scar on the left side of the woman's face covered with 30 percent is terrifying, and this scar is obviously from Zhou Kong when he became an adult.
Seeing Zhou Kong, Baili Yan bowed and gave a deep salute:
"General Zhou Kong understands the righteousness, and the commander admires him so much, please accept the next salute."
Zhou Kong's heart is righteous, and Bailiyan's gift is undoubtedly a coy gesture in her eyes:
"Since ancient times, the king has been defeated, why should General Bailiyan do so much."
Listening to the tone, Baili Yan knew that Zhou Kong must have misunderstood, and what he said at this moment became darker and darker.
"General Zhou's thoughts are understandable, but from today on, Zhaocheng is the city under the rule of our Xianguo, and the soldiers and civilians of Zhaocheng are the soldiers and civilians of our Xianguo, and they share the rights that the law of Xianguo should enjoy. As for what General Zhou said, whether he is acting coy or not will be seen by the people over time. ”
"Hmph, buy people's hearts, do it!"
"Hehe......" Baili Yanfu smiled and said lightly: "It doesn't matter if you buy people's hearts, since ancient times, people's hearts have their own justice, so why buy them." ”
Zhou Kong knew that Baili Yan couldn't talk about him, so he didn't talk about it anymore, and turned to him:
"Now that Zhaocheng is under your control, how are you going to clean up the chaos now!"
"Dare to ask General Zhou, what is the situation of the chaotic army in the city?"
"At present, our army only occupies the north of the city, and the rest are controlled by the rebel army, of which the south of the city is the largest, with about 18,000 people, followed by the east of the city, about 10,000 people, and the west of the city, with about 6,000 people. Excluding the wounded, our army had less than 14,000 capable fighters and about 7,000 wounded. ”
"And where is the grain and grass in your city?"
"The military rations are in the south and west of the city, and in the east of the city, there is only rice grain in the market, but not much. Now the people's homes are running out of food, and if there is no help in a few days, there will be trouble. ”
"I see, I said that the guards of the East Gate are in a hurry to come to the East Gate to vote for the name, and it turns out that the East Gate is about to run out of food."
"Let me ask you, did you shoot arrows to the East Gate and West Gate rebels before?"
"Yes, Ben Shuai ordered someone to shoot the arrow book, presumably General Zhou should have guessed the contents."
"In this way, if the general does not surrender, you will let the rebel army of the east gate and the west gate come to attack me tomorrow."
"Exactly."
Baili Yan said with a shameless face, and Zhou Air's thick eyebrows were raised:
"Then you'll go into the city last and clean them up!"
"Ben Shuai is not so stupid, he ruined Ben Shuai's reputation for some silver."
"Then you bought it with a lot of money, wouldn't it be a waste!"
"Of course not. The commander will order the slave army to stick to the city, and there will be no 100,000 gold and silver in the city, but 70,000 or 80,000, and the reward and punishment will only be more partial, and the soldiers and horses will be more focused. As soon as our Xianjun army leaves, they will kill themselves without the need for Ben Shuai to speak. Then Ben Shuai killed Zhaocheng and exterminated them in the name of counterinsurgency, and the gold and silver promised to go out were naturally Ben Shuai's. ”
"Despicable!"
Zhou Kong scolded, and everyone at the scene was cold like falling into an ice cave.
Bai Liyan's face was not red and her heart was not beating, and she said calmly:
"General Zhou can rest assured, this commander is not a person who goes back on his word, for good people, should be treated kindly, for those who do evil and know how to return, this commander will still open the net, but traitors and evil people, if they have to go all the way to the black, this commander will be dealt with by thunderous means, and will not be tolerated and connived."
"Then what are you going to do with Zhaocheng now?" Zhou Kong asked.
"The grain and grass in the east of the city will be exhausted, and there is still grain and grass in the south and west of the city, so the rebellious army in the east of the city will inevitably return the favor tomorrow after seeing General Zhou open the city. However, there was grain and grass in the south and west of the city, and there were still more than 25,000 troops, so they would not surrender easily, and in fact the general did not intend to accept his extortion, so he waited for two days, and then the main force of our army arrived, occupied the city wall first, and condescendingly forced the rebel army to surrender. ”
