Chapter 127: Breaking the Dead City and Rewarding the Dead

However, hearing Chen Zewen's words, Xue Qing said: "He killed my relatives, and I have a common enmity, today I will slash this thief, as for cooperation, hmph, wait until I kill my thief." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 After saying this, Xue Baihu rushed straight into the battle circle with his corporaries.

When Xue Qing and they attacked the county government, Zheng Xuli, the head of the household, also led the soldiers in this clan, and also approached a remote barracks at the east city gate, where nearly 700 soldiers were born in Shangcai, and the Zheng family, as the home of the three generations of Shangcai heroes, had great confidence that they could take advantage of the chaos to control here, so Zheng Xuli would lead people here as soon as possible.

I have to say that this group of Tartar officers and soldiers who fled back after the defeat were really frightened by the Red Turban Army, and when they heard that the Red Turban Army had entered the city, they had no heart to resist at all, and often the whole battalion only cared about fleeing for their lives, and because of the relationship between late night and night blindness, the chaos has not only not been alleviated but has intensified.

However, this was also convenient for Zheng Xuli, because the officers and soldiers who met him did not dare to resist when they saw that they were dressed in red turban army clothes, and let Zheng Xuli lead people to rush all the way to the Shangcai barracks.

And the Shangcai barracks naturally fell into chaos without exception, the most prestigious of them Xue Baihu rebelled, and took away more than 100 soldiers, not to mention, as the county lieutenant, Lin Ze also led people to escape as soon as the chaos broke out, so that the remaining 500 soldiers in the Shangcai barracks were completely in a state of being leaderless, and it was simply a mess.

However, just as they were scrambling to prepare to flee for their lives, a group of red turban soldiers suddenly rushed in at the camp gate, and when they saw this red turban army, Shangcai Bingding in the chaos was stunned at once, so that this group of guys did not dare to resist at all, but all chose to disarm and surrender.

And Zheng Xuli, who rushed in with people, couldn't help but show a smile on his face when he saw this, because even he didn't expect things to go so smoothly, so Zheng Xuli saw that this group of soldiers had no heart to resist, so he raised his sword and shouted as soon as possible: "I am Zheng Xuli, a thousand households with a red scarf, if you want to live, then tie a red scarf on your head and obey my command, otherwise you will definitely die!" ā€

When the hundreds of Shangcai soldiers who surrendered heard this, they looked up and saw that it was really their Shangcai Master Zheng, looking at Zheng Xuli who was covered in blood and more than a hundred soldiers behind Zheng Xuli, dozens of soldiers who were related to the Zheng family took the lead in standing up and said: "Master Zheng, you and we are fellow villagers, and I don't think you will harm us, so we are willing to listen to your words, Master Zheng." ā€

Saying that, these people tore off a strip of red cloth from their bodies, tied it to their heads, and picked up weapons from the ground and stood behind Zheng Xuli and them.

And with these examples, this group of soldiers, who were in the midst of chaos, also followed their example in order to survive, or tore red cloth from their bodies, or dyed the strips of cloth red with the blood of their bodies and the dead, and then tied them to their foreheads.

Seeing this, Zheng Xuli couldn't help but burst out laughing, and said loudly: "Okay, fellow villagers, for the sake of the father, elders, wives and children of the family, kill with me, and welcome the army into the city!" ā€

"Kill!" When hundreds of soldiers heard Zheng Xuli's words, they all raised their weapons and shouted.

……

At the same time, outside the city, in the barracks of the Red Turban Army, Han Yan'er also assembled his troops under Liu Futong's order, and in the face of such a good opportunity to take the city, Liu Futong naturally would not miss it, so at the first time of the chaos in Shangcai City, Liu Futong ordered Han Yan'er to lead his troops to capture the city.

And because of the siege at night, the soldiers are not much more expensive, so Liu Futong only ordered Han Yan'er alone, and did not mobilize others, after all, with the current chaotic situation of the Tartars, the three thousand soldiers under Han Yan'er are definitely enough.

And Han Yan'er is also worthy of being a brave general, under his orders, the soldiers under his command are still assembled at a very fast speed, even at night. And after the soldiers were assembled, Han Yan'er and the others also held torches high and attacked Shangcai Cheng with great momentum.

For this battle, no one in the Red Turban Army was worried.

Besides, on the county government's side, just when Zheng Xuli took advantage of the chaos to control hundreds of soldiers and led the soldiers to open the city gate, the battle on the county government's side was also coming to an end.

Under the frantic attack of Xue Baihu and others, the fearless Tartar soldiers were quickly routed without any reinforcements. The Tartar soldiers guarding the front hall were all killed by the crazy revenge division, and after killing these people, the crazy revenge division attacked the backyard like a tide under the leadership of Xue Baihu.

In the backyard, the commander of 30,000 officers and soldiers, the privy servant of the Great Yuan Court, was protected by more than a dozen loyal guards like a frightened idiot. However, how could this mere dozen guards be Xue Baihu's opponent.

One loyal guard after another was torn apart by the red-eyed soldiers, and when Guanyinnu, the leader of the guards, also collapsed by his neck, all that was left in the backyard was the bloody and slumped to the ground like a dog.

Xue Qing, who led the revenge division, looked at the He guy who knelt on the ground like a dog and kept begging for mercy, and suddenly laughed, his laughter was very loud, and it seemed so incompatible with this county government full of bloody corpses. But he didn't care in the slightest, just as he didn't care about the bloodied wounds on his body.

The blood made his smile look hideous, but none of the surrounding soldiers made a sound, because they were all the same as Xue Qing, their eyes were always staring at the He Guy who was kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.

The sword light flashed suddenly, and all the sounds in the courtyard stopped abruptly, except for the pop of the head of the man on the ground.

"Kill him!" He was obviously dead, but a scarred soldier still shouted with red eyes.

The soldier's name was Liu Ergou, and I saw that he still used his knife to slash at He's corpse after roaring, but his crazy actions still drove the other people around him, and I saw them all roaring angrily, using the weapons in their hands to attack Hewu's corpse frantically.

Slashing, axeing, hammering, and spearing, a dignified court official, but under the hands of the crazy crowd, it turned into a pile of dumpling filling.

"Crazy, all crazy!" The soldiers of the Chen and Xu families, who had vomited, looked at the corpse abuse of Xue Baihu's subordinates, and said with a pale face.

……

At the same time, a few miles to the west of Shangcai City, Bald Chi, surrounded by more than a hundred knights, looked at the chaotic Shangcai City, and couldn't help but sigh.

"I haven't been able to come out now, it seems that Hewu is dead." Bald Red thought so in his heart.

Thinking of this, he did not continue to stay here, but turned his horse's head and said to the guards beside him, "Let's go!" ā€

"Are you going to Ruyang?" The guard asked.

"No, Ruyang is the place of death now, let's go north and go to Bianliang." After saying that, the bald red rode his horse towards the north.

……

Half an hour later, Han Yan'er led his soldiers and entered Shangcai City in a mighty way, because the city gate was opened by Zheng Xuli, so Han Yan'er did not encounter any resistance. Moreover, when Han Yan'er led the army into the city, the battle in Shangcai City was also coming to an end.

Those 3,000 Tartar defenders who had lost their courage were suppressed by Zheng Xuli with the power of a division at this time, and because he took the initiative to open the city gate, Zheng Xuli was enough to become a well-deserved thousand households in the Red Turban Army in terms of merit and strength.

And Xue Qing, who led the revenge division to kill Hehu, was promoted to deputy Qianhu, and the Chen and Xu families, who were used as gunmen by Zheng Xuli, became the officials of the hundred households.

So far, the first battle since the Red Turban Army started its army also ended in an unexpected victory for the Red Turban Army.

……

The next day, Liu Futong, the commander of the Red Turban Army in bright armor, entered Shangcai City surrounded by many generals of the Red Turban Army. After a night of scuffle, Shangcai City looked a mess, blood and fire burning scorched earth can still be seen everywhere, and there are even some corpses and broken arms that have not been disposed of in time in some places.

However, such a tragic scene did not affect Liu Futong's cheerful mood at this time. After all, the defeat of the 30,000-strong army means that from today onwards, the officers and soldiers of the entire Runing Mansion and the four continents will no longer be able to use the strength to stop the footsteps of the Red Turban Army, and it also means that this Runing Mansion will become the bag of the Red Turban Army.

Faced with such a bright prospect, how could Liu Futong not be happy.

However, Liu Futong is quite reserved, and he has been smiling since he entered the city, and he has not shown his emotions too much.

However, Zhang Shihua, who was riding a horse behind him, saw such a scene, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "In the battle last night, I don't know how many Shangcai people suffered tragic disasters, and I don't know how many powerful families died. ā€

However, this kind of thing also made Zhang Shihua's heart harder and colder, because he couldn't change this troubled world now, so he had to adapt to all this.

Therefore, Zhang Shihua just sighed lightly in his heart, and then looked ahead again.

The group rode their horses and soon arrived at the county office. The originally clean and tidy gate of the county government was a little messy at this time, although Han Yan'er had ordered someone to clean up the corpses in the county office, but the crimson blood on the ground and walls was still everywhere.

Although Han Yan'er had ordered someone to wash it with water several times, the blood stains were still very conspicuous.

And because it is summer now, the smell of blood on the county government has also attracted a lot of flies, and the flies lying on the ground look disgusting.

However, the people on the field didn't know how much they had seen more disgusting scenes than this, so they didn't realize anything, especially Liu Futong's expression didn't change from beginning to end, but he asked Han Yan'er when he entered the county office: "Listen to you, it was a righteous man named Xue Qing who led people to kill Heguo?" ā€

When Han Yan'er heard this, she immediately replied: "Yes, this righteous man is Xue Qing. Saying that, Han Yan'er pointed to a middle-aged man standing on the outskirts of the generals with a lot of scars on his body.

Seeing this, Xue Qing immediately saluted Liu Futong and said, "The last general, Xue Qing, meet the marshal." ā€

And Liu Futong also glanced at Xue Qing, and said with a smile: "Yes, he is a brave general." ā€

After saying this, Liu Futong didn't pay attention to Xue Qing anymore, but led people straight into the county office.

The front hall of the county government was also cleaned up by Han Yan'er, so although it looks a little messy, it is basically tidy, especially the front hall of the county government, and even the tables, chairs and benches have been completely replaced by Han Yan'er.

Liu Futong and his entourage naturally have no interest in watching this county government now, so after entering the county office, Liu Futong was surrounded by the generals and went straight into the front hall of the county office.

After everyone entered the front hall, Liu Futong first sat on the main seat, and after Liu Futong sat down and waved his hand to let the generals sit down, Zhang Shihua and Han Yan'er sat down in turn.

After everyone sat down, they listened to Liu Futong, who was sitting on the main seat, and said directly to the point: "My Holy Sect has been blessed by heaven, and it has defeated the Tartars in one fell swoop. Therefore, the commander decided that early tomorrow morning, the commander will personally lead the army to the south, attack the two counties of Suiping and Queshan, and after capturing these two counties, the commander will take Ruyang directly, and then occupy the land of Runing and four states in one fell swoop. ā€

However, speaking of this, Liu Futong's serious face changed, and he said to everyone with a smile: "But before that, Ben Shuai still has one thing to do, and that is to reward meritorious deeds." Speaking of this, Liu Futong said to Du Zundao in the hall: "Zundao, today you will read this matter to the generals." ā€

When Du Zundao heard this, he immediately stood up from his seat, and saluted Liu Futong with his fists: "The lower official obeys the order." After saying this, Du Zundao took out a brocade book from his wide sleeve under the nervous or excited gaze of the generals.

After taking out the brocade book, he heard Du Zundao read it out in a loud voice: "There is an ancient saying: The great affairs of the world are better than rewards and punishments. He also said: The reward will not be overdue, and the punishment will not be moved. Therefore, this marshal is the king of Ming today, and he is rewarded for meritorious deeds. ā€

"In the battle of Yuemiao, our army was able to defeat tens of thousands of Tartars with the strength of one division, relying on the protection of the gods and the lives of the soldiers. And those who use their lives to serve the soldiers, Luo Wensu, Han Yan'er, Zhang Shihua, and Wang Xianzhong have the highest credit. Therefore, the commander decided to make Luo Wensu the general of the hussar guard to lead the province of Jiangbei; specially named Han Yan'er as the general of Zhaowu to lead tens of thousands of households in Runing Mansion; Zhang Shihua was specially entitled, and General An Yuan led ten thousand households to ten thousand households; Special title Wang Xianzhong is the general of Dingyuan, leading ten thousand households and ten thousand households. ā€

"The rest of the generals also have their own rewards, and they are ...... (I won't write it anymore if it has nothing to do with the plot.) ļ¼‰ā€

I have to say that there are a lot of people who have been rewarded this time, even Zhao Jiu, Zhang Shihui, and Xu Ming under Zhang Shihua have been named thousands of households, of course, these three people were also reported by Zhang Shihua in advance, so it is not so much that Liu Futong was sealed, but that after Zhang Shihua and they were sealed, Liu Futong went through a formality.

But this transition must be left, because this represents the orthodox name of the Red Turban Army, and Liu Futong's status is extremely important. Therefore, these names were enough for Du Zundao to read there for a quarter of an hour. (To be continued.) )
