Chapter 139: Won
The sheep tore the jackals apart, and the people finally realized that the murderer was so weak.
Zhu Youzi's entire army was annihilated, and all the rest surrendered.
The fleeing routs were surrounded by the people, who, if courageous, might have been able to fight their way through with hoes and iron rakes.
But the defeated soldiers had no fighting spirit, especially when facing the fierce and vicious people, their courage was lost. Surrender is their only option.
Zhu Youzi felt that he had bumped into a ghost, how could he have thought that the people who had always been honest and docile would also have a time to go crazy.
His relatives protected Zhu Youzi to the death, but what was the use, surrounded by the people all over the mountains, Pan Da's stunned Shence Army and Jin Dabiao's Anwu Army were intercepted behind him. Zhu Youzi's dozen people are like little white rabbits surrounded by wolves.
At this scene, Zhu Youzi sighed, threw away his weapon and grabbed it.
Won, they won, and Yique County was defended without any damage.
The soldiers began to cheer, and they all knew what the reward would be for winning the battle. The people snickered and laughed, and they found that as long as they were brave enough, they were no longer afraid of being bullied.
Nanbatian on the city wall was overjoyed, he never thought that he would be able to defeat the enemy so easily.
Yique County is boiling, and Nanbatian's reputation is unprecedentedly high. People seem to have forgotten about the insatiable Nan Batian who roamed the countryside, and instead became a hero who scattered his wealth to defend the city.
Even Pan Da was stunned, and after entering the city, he no longer spoke harshly, patted Nan Batian's shoulder and called him brother.
A different emotion rose in Nan Batian's heart, and he found that it was so happy to be a good person.
He was greedy, and copper coins filled the chest under the bed. But instead of being happy, he trembled for fear of being discovered.
Now that he has become a hero, he walked to the city and greeted him one after another, and Nan Batian felt very happy and happy. He is a hero, a hero who defends the city, and he can't show off everywhere lest others know about it.
In Ruzhou City, Li Ji adopted the tactics of the Mongolian cavalry of later generations and defeated Zhu Youwen in one fell swoop.
Most of the Shenwu army was killed, and those who surrendered were not counted. Zhang Guihou died in battle, and Zhu Youwen only led 200 people to kill a bloody road to the east.
Pigeon Ridge, the loyal army was also defeated and lost, the coach Zhu Youyong died under the knife, and the rest surrendered.
In this battle, Li Ji won a complete victory. Since then, Dengzhou, Xiangzhou, Tangzhou, Jiangling, Chuzhou, Zhongzhou, and half of the territory laid by Zhu Wen have been in the hands of the imperial court.
This battle also played the prestige of the imperial court, and the feudal towns in various places wrote to express their submission.
The day that Li Ji had been waiting for had finally come true, and the imperial court had now seized the initiative and was no longer afraid of any feudal power.
The victorious division, the Praetorian Guard was boiling, and these recruits were finally no longer afraid after experiencing the battle on the battlefield.
As recruits, they seem to have forgotten about the blood and death on the battlefield, as they were all replaced by the courage of the charge.
After the end of the war, they were shocked in retrospect, and they were still terrified when they started the war, but they calmed down when they saw blood and death. If I don't kill you, you'll kill me, then, I'll bite you to death!
Now that they had won, looking at the dejected captives, the recruits still couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.
In the past, as a common man, I didn't know how to resist when I saw the burning, killing, and plundering of the soldiers, but now that I am a soldier, I am finally no longer afraid of them.
The recruits felt that they had become stronger, braver, and killed, and that was it. If you come into the next battle, they will still scream and rush up and bite you to death!
Because only by winning the war can you keep your family from being bullied. Only if you win the battle, the imperial court will give you a military merit field. Only if you win the war will your family pay less taxes. Only by winning the war can your family live a well-fed life.
That's right, in this world, as long as you can eat enough, it is already heaven.
These days, the officials in the capital are like ants on a hot pan, like fish about to dry up under the sun, being tormented and roasted.
They were terrified of failing again, and the shadow of Zhaozong still hung over them. This expedition was almost the same as the big war between Zhaozong and Li Keyong back then, and it was all the newly assembled forbidden army that pulled it to the battlefield and started a war with others.
But Li Ji is not his father Zhaozong Li Ye, Zhaozong made a mistake Li Ji will not make again, they won a beautiful battle, a beautiful battle that can be recorded in history for thousands of years.
In the palace, Empress Dowager He burned incense and prayed in Jishan Palace, she was pious and anxious. In the council room, the courtiers gathered together to cheer each other on, and although their hearts were full of fear, they still told themselves that this time the Son of Heaven would return triumphantly.
Waiting, more than a month of waiting. Even the people of the capital were also suffering, and it was the Son of Heaven who restored the law of the imperial court. The people don't have to be afraid anymore when they see the officers and soldiers, the yamen has finally begun to redress the grievances of the people, and there are no more wicked people who oppress the people on the streets, which are all brought to them today.
At the south gate of Luoyang City, the guards at the city gate lazily started the day's guarding work. At this time, the sound of horses' hooves on the official road broke the silence.
The post soldiers are quick to whip their horses, and 100,000 are in a hurry. He ran with the reins in his left hand and the envelope in his right hand: "Good news!" Good news! Get out of the way, Ruzhou good news! ”
The guards at the city gate hurriedly dodged the road, and the people in twos and threes took refuge on both sides. The horses' hooves talked about the dust, and the postmen galloped by like a gust of wind.
But the guards have heard it clearly, good news! That means we've won.
So the guards had a smile on their faces, they hugged each other tightly and slapped each other, and they won!
A person pushing a wooden cart next to him was stunned for a moment, then threw away the wooden cart in his hand, and scattered it all over the ground regardless of the goods on the cart. Then he turned around and ran: "Won!" We won! He wants to spread the good news to the capital and share the joy with his family.
The capital was boiling in an instant, and the people spontaneously organized themselves into the streets to convey this exciting good news to each other.
In the palace chamber, Kong Lin Dugu and others were waiting anxiously. Suddenly, a eunuch ran in in a panic: "Ladies and gentlemen, the post soldiers are good!"
He deliberately said the word good news louder, and the ministers stood up suddenly. Kong Lin's eyes widened, Dugu Zhen trembled slightly, Cui Yuan breathed quickly, and Pei Shuchang breathed a sigh of relief......
Then the post soldier ran in panting: "Ruzhou good news, our army has a great victory!" After saying that, he fell to the ground.
The palace guards hurriedly rushed over to help the post soldier, and everyone carried them down to find the imperial doctor. In the eyes of everyone, this post soldier has become a hero, and it is the good news that he has been working tirelessly for eight hundred miles.
The Empress Dowager He of Jishan Palace also knelt in front of the Buddha statue to burn incense and pray, and she held a string of Buddhist beads in her hand and chanted words.
Suddenly, the door of Jishan Palace opened, and the palace maid Ah Qiu ran in in a panic.
Empress Dowager He's hand trembled, and the Buddha beads fell to the ground, and chanting Buddha still failed to calm her heart after all.
"Queen Mother! Great joy, Your Majesty has won! Ah Qiu smiled all over his face.
Empress Dowager He trembled violently again, she turned her head and looked at Ah Qiu excitedly.
Ah Qiu nodded vigorously, with tears in his eyes: "Queen Mother, the slave maid just got the news from the front palace, Your Majesty has won, and those ministers are laughing in the council hall."
