Volume 2 Conquest and Killing Chapter 114 Slaughter of Jiangzhou

Although it has never snowed since the New Year's Eve, it is very cold every day, and the plants and trees are frosty, so hiding in the house and enjoying the warmth of the charcoal fire is the meaning of this winter. For three days, the people of Hanzhou were imprisoned in the prisoner camp, although the original right rank guard camp was rebuilt, but except for a ring of fences, there was no tile to shelter from the wind and rain, and the people were tied together with a string of ankle chains, eating, drinking, and Lazar were all in this camp, like livestock.

Finally, there were old and healthy people who couldn't bear this inhuman treatment and died desolate in infinite unwillingness, and there were also men who protested to the Tang soldiers, but in exchange for a beating. All the officials of Hanzhou were imprisoned in iron cages of other characteristics near the government office, which were so square and small that one could neither lift his head nor stretch his feet. Mu Qingyuan was held in solitary confinement, he was in the right position to see Yan Yuxin clearly, I don't know if it was accidental or deliberate by the Tang people.

It's been three days, Yan Yuxin's wounds have all scabbed, the water and rice have not entered, his breath is dying, his head is hanging, his scattered hair is flying in the cold wind, his whole body is stiff, motionless, and he is no different from a dead man. Even Mu Qingyuan's own situation was not much better, but he still tried to lie in the cage and look at Yan Yuxin, eager to see even a trace of trembling of his lips.

"Line up!" Fan Tuo strode out of the palace with a high spirit, a team of guards stood solemnly waiting, and a tall horse stood at the front of the team. Fan Lu turned over and got on his horse, rode past Yan Yuxin, glanced at it, and then came to the front of the iron cage.

"Master Mu, don't look at me like this, otherwise you will have to hold a grudge against me even more when I return to the city, hahaha!"

Mu Qingyuan didn't understand the intention of Fan Yu's words, watching him walk away proudly, the ominous feeling in his heart was slowly being confirmed, could it be ......

Fan Yu wanted to tell Mu Qingyuan directly that General Ben would go and take Jiangzhou City now, and it would not cost a single soldier! But that Yan Tong just used the King of Khan to suppress the general, and he had to keep his mouth shut, he was really cowardly! There is also that Nangong Che, who always stands on Yan Tong's side, and there is really no good product in the six parts! Phew, Fan Yu spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, came to the south city gate and gathered 30,000 soldiers and horses to go to Jiangzhou, wanting to vent his anger on the war.

The distance between Hanzhou and Jiangzhou, the cavalry galloped wildly, and it only took half a day to reach it. At the middle of the day, Fan Lu's 30,000 soldiers and horses were already lined up outside Jiangzhou City, as previously agreed, after a symbolic attack of several times, the Jiangzhou City Gate was knocked open by the crashing wood. Looking at the corpses of the Liang Dynasty soldiers all over the ground and the people of the Liang Dynasty fleeing in a panic, Fan Yu did not have any sense of accomplishment, this kind of pretended attack was completely different from the pleasure of really taking the city by force, especially the larger and richer Jiangzhou City, not to mention the soldiers under his command, even Fan Yu himself was a little unable to control the idea of looting.

It's just a small town, why can't you take it? Yan Tong has to negotiate with the Liang Dynasty, and he is not allowed to plunder his own troops, if it weren't for the face of the King of Khan, this general would have dealt with you by military law a long time ago! "Come on, go to the Jiangzhou Assassin Mansion for a walk!"

Before the road was halfway through, a rain of arrows suddenly fell from the sky, catching the unprepared Tang army by surprise. "There's an ambush!" On the eaves, in the houses, and at the corners of the streets, the soldiers of the Liang Dynasty continued to pour out everywhere that could be seen by the naked eye, each of them was dressed in an indigo military uniform, and their whole bodies were protected by armor, with knives and swords on both sides of their waists, and they were carrying quivers on their backs.

Fan Yu was angry, and as soon as he pulled out his saber, he saw a few people standing in a high place not far away looking towards him, and occasionally he could see a few people commenting with interest.

"Damn! Liang people are shameless, they actually set me up and rush out! "It stands to reason that the 30,000 people under Fan Lu are not a minority, after losing the opportunity, the team was broken up and the formation could not be organized; The enemy came prepared, each wave of attack was orderly, and he was very familiar with the terrain, all of which made Fan Wei's breakthrough a feather. Just as his eyes were red, the enemy's attack stopped, and his pressure suddenly decreased.

"General Fan!"

Fan Yu followed the voice and looked over, it was one of the people who was watching the excitement in the periphery before, this time he could see it clearly, it was three people, the one standing closest to the battle circle was Yan Tong, and the other two were dressed in court clothes, obviously officials of the Liang Dynasty, and the last person was the person who spoke with a burly physique, and his dark armor looked heroic.

"General Fan, let's let your people give up resistance!"

"The despicable Liang Dynasty people actually designed to frame us!"

"Despicable? If you are despicable, you launched a surprise attack on the night of the New Year's vigil of my Liang Dynasty and killed my Liang people and soldiers, you have done everything better! ”

"Yan Tong, you traitor! Didn't you tell me to come and surrender? I didn't expect it to be a foreign country, if the king of Khan knew about it........"

"If the Khan knows, he will definitely focus on the overall situation." Yan Tong took over the conversation, he obviously knew that Fan Yu definitely didn't understand the reason, so he had to continue to explain: "General Fan, I did make a deal with Lord Liu and General Lantai, and there is still one last step left to complete this transaction, just waiting for you to come, General!" ”

"What do you mean?"

"This ambush battle must be fought, fortunately, your losses are not heavy, as compensation, we will withdraw from Jiangzhou City, this city is at your disposal!" As soon as he said this, not only Fan Yi was surprised, but even Liu Yi, who was standing beside him, was surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "General, what we agreed on is not like this!" ”

"Those who achieve great things are not informal, Lord Liu doesn't need me to teach this truth, right?"

"If we let the Tang soldiers loot Jiangzhou, our plan can no longer be hidden, who will bear the consequences?"

"Lord Liu reminded me, yes, who should bear the responsibility for this massacre of Jiangzhou City?"

Liu Yi clearly read the danger signal from the constricted pupils and weird smile of the Tantai Guizong, and he involuntarily took two steps back, but Yan Tong blocked the way to retreat.

"Lord Liu, you are the assassin of Jiangzhou, and you have to carry this burden!" Yan Tong turned his head to Fan Yu and said, "General Fan, all the property in this Jiangzhou City belongs to you, but you have to guarantee that there will be no living in this city!" ”

"Retreat!" He himself withdrew from Jiangzhou City with the team, leaving only the hungry wolf-like Tang Army and the soulless Liu Yi, he looked around blankly, the two people who were originally standing side by side with him had disappeared, he really couldn't figure out how his careful plan had become what it was now, completely out of his control, in fact, it was not only the plan that was out of control, but also his life.

Fan Yi swaggered in front of Liu Yi, cutting off his neck with the steel knife in his hand like chopping melons and vegetables, and when the blood jumped into the air, Liu Yi's head still rolled into the dust with eyes open in disbelief.

"Brothers, it's time to treat yourself! Kill all the people here, rob all the possessions and women here, burn all the houses! ”

"Oh!" With the permission of their leader, the soldiers of the Lower Tang Dynasty were transformed into wild beasts, they were no longer well-trained warriors, bloodthirsty demons, greedy butchers, and the people of Jiangzhou City became their prey.

He saw the smoke rising from the city, and he heard screams and cries coming from the city. The warriors behind him felt the same way, and although they were silent, he understood that these people were no longer loyal to his subordinates.

"Jiangzhou City and Jinchang City have also been in business for a hundred years, and there are also the imprints and memories of my Tangtai family in them, the Tang Army is menacing, Liu Yi is suspicious, they have already hooked up and become traitors, luring our army to go deeper, I can only make this decision, after all, only by preserving the main force can we avenge the people of Jiangzhou!" When he turned his head, he was already in tears, and his subordinates had almost never seen their generals cry, and they were suddenly a little stunned.

"Soldiers, bow down to me!" He jumped off the horse, knelt on his knees, kowtowed three times in a row, and said his helplessness and resentment in tears. Not to mention this scene, not to mention the recruits, even the old subordinates who have followed for many years have never seen it in person, all the god-killing horsemen knelt down one after another, and shouted in unison, "The subordinates are loyal to the general, loyal to the beam!" "This hand of emotional cards was played at the right time, and the effect was as he expected.

After returning to Jinchang City, the Emperor immediately reorganized the city defenses, and spread the news that the Lower Tang Dynasty people raided Hanzhou, and Liu Yi secretly communicated with foreign countries to cause the Lower Tang Dynasty army to loot and massacre Jiangzhou City, and for a time everyone in the city hated the same enemy. The report of the fall of the two cities was immediately sent to the capital. After everything was done, Tantai Guizong breathed a sigh of relief, and wanted to think about the next layout, when a regular, gentle knock on the door broke his plan.

"Come in!"

After the "father" pushed the door, the first thing that appeared in the eyes of the Emperor was two wooden wheels, and then the ugly face of the Scythe appeared, "I wonder if it disturbs my father?" ”

Yutai Guizong leaned back on the back of the chair in displeasure, "Don't bother, you also bother, what's the matter?" ”

"When the child heard about the affairs of Hanzhou and Jiangzhou, he always felt that there was a problem."

"What's the problem?"

"The three towns in the southeast have been in business for a hundred years, and they have always been to prevent the Tang Dynasty, even if the Tang Dynasty soldiers raided, the defenders of the two cities would not even have time to report the letter, and the slaughter of Jiangzhou City was even more incredible!"

"What's the difference? What are you thinking? The war has begun, the two cities have been lost, and now only Jinchang is left, our Tantai family must hold on to Jinchang, and we must not let the Tang army cross the southeast to invade our land! As a boy of the Tantai family, even if you are born with a disability and can't go to the battlefield, you should think about countermeasures for your family and country instead of getting entangled in some of your own fantasies! ”

"Father, Child......"

"Go down! Learn well from your two brothers, and don't help the family like your eldest sister! ”

The weasel moved his lips, the words in his heart were still swallowed, he didn't even dare to look up at his father's serious face, nodded, and walked out of the room with a wooden wheelchair, and when the door was closed, he found that there was a gap between him and his father that could not be crossed in this life, and this gap should have existed since he was born. Clang, the two doors finally fit together, and the sour and bitter taste in his heart spread to his tongue, and when he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, all he tasted was bitter.
