Chapter 158: Ruyang City is broken
"Kill!" The earth-shattering exclamation rang out again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter Zhang Shihua and Luo Wensu joined forces, the two of them led their soldiers to attack the south gate of Ruyang City not far away.
And those officers and soldiers who were already about to be beaten by the Red Turban Army and whose morale was shattered, where would they be the opponents of these two at this time. Although it is said that there are many officers and soldiers in the city, there are nearly 5,000 people. However, in the face of the 2,000 soldiers of Zhang Shihua and Luo Wensu, they were still beaten and retreated.
"Sword and shield hand, slow down and get in formation; Spear team, hurry up, keep up with the sword and shield hands. Okay, I've got the formation in order, and we'll press it down in a dignified manner. On Zhang Shihua's side, one by one, under the command of Zhang Shihua, a hundred teams formed a phalanx, like a wall of wall, pressing towards the south gate of Ruyang City.
Although there are many officers and soldiers, in the city, in the face of Zhang Shihua's offensive, they can't give full play to the advantage of troops, and can only be driven away by Zhang Shihua's side like a group of lambs.
Therefore, at the beginning, Zhang Shihua and Luo Wensu led the army side by side, but it didn't take long for Luo Wensu and them to be left behind by Zhang Shihua's army.
And when Luo Wensu saw this scene, he was naturally extremely angry, but what about anger.
Although Zhang Shihua has long made his training methods public in the Red Turban Army, don't forget, it doesn't mean that everyone who has seen Sun Tzu's Art of War can become Sun Tzu. Although Luo Wensu also knows some of Zhang Shihua's training methods, it can be seen from Luo Wensu's daily behavior that Luo Wensu admires personal bravery even more, and he is a little disdainful of Zhang Shihua's training methods at all.
Therefore, in this fight, Luo Wensu still relied on "fierce generals to rush forward and fight a swarm." ”
Of course, it has to be said that in the era of cold weapons, the bravery of a general can indeed play a decisive role at some moments. However, this kind of role is often decisive when the two sides are evenly matched and need to use the bravery of the generals to boost morale and break the deadlock.
At other times, a general's prowess doesn't really play much of a role in a war, because war is never a one-man game. If the outcome of the war is really determined by the so-called brave generals, then there is no need to recruit troops to fight the war, and it would be better to train a strong man who is not afraid of death.
Therefore, even though Luo Wensu kept shouting because he couldn't compare to Zhang Shihua at this time, he still had no choice.
And not to mention what Luo Wensu thinks at this time, just talk about Zhang Shihua now.
You must know that although Zhang Shihua only led more than 1,000 soldiers this time, these more than 1,000 soldiers are all elite soldiers. These soldiers, in terms of combat strength alone, it is as easy as a breeze to fight officers and soldiers with one enemy and two enemies.
Especially now, after forming a battle formation under the command of Zhang Shihua, the combat power they have erupted is even more unimaginable. Although there are many officers and soldiers in the city, facing them is tantamount to a chicken and a dog. In just a quarter of an hour, Zhang Shihua had already led these soldiers to the city gate.
"Open the city gate, enlarge the army into the city!" After killing at the city gate, Zhang Shihua formed a battle formation at the city gate, and while resisting the enemy's desperate counterattack, he also let his warriors slowly open the heavy city gate from the inside.
Watching the city gate be opened little by little, the few officers and soldiers in the city gathered together and launched a final charge towards the red turban sergeants who formed a battle formation.
"Brothers, for the sake of your family and country, kill thieves!" A general of the Red Turban Army, dressed as an officer and soldier defending a thousand households, held his sword high at this time, and shouted like this while charging towards Zhang Shihua and them.
"Kill the thief!" When more than 100 officers and soldiers heard the words of these thousand households, they all raised their swords in response, and rushed towards Zhang Shihua and them with the thousand households.
And Zhang Shihua, who was in the formation, looked at the more than 100 officers and soldiers who were rushing towards him frantically, and couldn't help but raise his sword and shouted: "Kill!" ”
"Kill!" The earth-shattering shouts of killing were roared out by nearly a thousand soldiers under Zhang Shihua's command. Then the sword and shield soldiers who lined up in front, under the leadership of Zhao Jiu, ruthlessly waved the swords in their hands against the more than 100 officers and soldiers who rushed in.
Suddenly, blood splattered. The last charge launched by these more than 100 officers and men was like a wave crashing into a reef, and the reef stood still, while the waves shattered their bones.
Yes, in this battle, all the remaining more than 100 officers and soldiers were killed. However, unlike usual, this time, the tragic death of these people did not arouse the courage in the hearts of the remaining officers and soldiers, but also lost the last trace of courage in their hearts.
After all, from this point alone, it can be seen that the remaining officers and soldiers are not brave warriors who are not afraid of death. And when the city gate was completely opened by the soldiers under Zhang Shihua's command, and hundreds, thousands of red turban soldiers roared and rushed into the city, the only thing these cowardly fellows who had lost their courage could do was to escape.
"The Red Turban thieves have entered the city, brothers, flee for their lives!" Looking at the red turban soldiers who poured into the city like a tide, some timid officers and soldiers couldn't help but turn around and run away while shouting like this.
"Kill the Tartar!" At the same time, there was also an earth-shattering roar from the Red Turban Army.
"Run!" Seeing this scene, almost all the officers and soldiers in Ruyang City suddenly had such a word in their minds, after all, fools can see that the officers and soldiers of Ruyang City are already in the general trend at this time.
"Defeated, defeated......" Looking at the red turban soldiers who poured into the city like a tide, and desperately commanded the officers and soldiers defending the city to lead Mijiang at the previous moment, he couldn't help but show a miserable smile on his face, sighed, threw away the saber in his hand, and said so.
"The marshal has an order, and whoever can capture and kill the enemy's general Mijiang will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, and the official will be promoted to one level." As Mi Jiang reluctantly admitted his defeat, more than a dozen heralds of the Red Turban Army also rode their horses and shouted in the city at the right time.
However, when he heard the shouting of the heralds of the Red Turban Army, the first thing to react was not the Red Turban soldiers who entered the city, but the guards who were loyal to Mijiang's side.
"General, it's not good. The general trend is gone, you should hurry up! I saw that after hearing the words of the herald of the Red Turban Army, a pro-guard soldier immediately shouted at the helpless and decadent Mi Jiang.
However, after Mi Jiang heard the words of this soldier, he said calmly to the loyal soldiers around him: "As an official of the imperial court, I have the responsibility of guarding the land for the imperial court. Now that the army has been defeated and the city has fallen, I cannot escape the blame, and I have resolved to die for my country and forgive my sins. Thou shalt have all family members, so run for your life, and there is no need to die for me, a sinner. ”
"General! ......" The dozens of guards guarding Mi Jiang's side couldn't help but cry out so sadly after hearing Mi Jiang's words.
"General, where are you talking about this? General, you are a loyal minister, and the last general does not know the word loyalty. The last general has been helpless since he was a child, and he can have today, all thanks to the general, the general treats me like a brother and a father, how can the last general leave the general at this time and live in the world. ”
"At the end of today, I will not ask for anything else, but I am willing to go to Huangquan with the general." A Mi family general who has been by Mi Jiang's side since he was a child couldn't help but cry out so sadly.
"I am willing to go to Huangquan with the general!" Hearing the words of the Nami family general, the remaining dozens of guards couldn't help but shout like this.
"Yes, gentlemen. And I will kill the thief with all my might! Mijan shouted.
"Dare to disobey!" The rest of the guards also bowed and shouted.
Then the fight resumed, and these dozens of guards and soldiers, looking at the red turban soldiers who were rushing towards them, also roared, and together with Mi Jiang, they raised their knives and pounced on the red turban soldiers who were killing.
However, Han Yan'er, who originally commanded his subordinates and wanted to directly kill Mi Jiang, saw this scene, but his heart couldn't help but be infected by the loyalty of Mi Jiang and others, only to see him riding his horse in front, knowing that it was impossible, he still couldn't help shouting at Mi Jiang and them: "General Mi, you and I are both southerners and Han people, and we are both Yanhuang Huaxuan, why bother to be foolish and loyal to the Tartar emperor who only knows how to cultivate Buddhism and lust." General Mi can be said to be a famous general in the world, if General Mi is willing to surrender, I, Han Yan'er, will recommend the general to my marshal. At that time, the position of general will never be below me. ”
"I only dare to ask, is the general willing to surrender?"
"Hahaha." However, hearing Han Yan'er's sincere words, Mi Jiang, who was covered in blood, smiled disdainfully, only to see him pointing a knife at Han Yan'er's face, and said disdainfully: "I, Mi Jiang, am an official of the imperial court and a minister canonized by the Son of Heaven of the Great Yuan." Thou art but a thief, and thou art worthy of being on the same level as me. After saying that, Mi Jiang laughed disdainfully again.
And hearing Mi Jiang's words, Han Yan'er, who originally valued Mi Jiang very much, couldn't help but be a little annoyed, only to see him staring at his eyes and shouting at the soldiers under his command: "What are you still doing in a daze, since this thief has not changed his mind, and he only wants to help the abuse, then send him to die." ”
After speaking, Han Yan'er turned the horse's head and left, pretending to be disdainful and did not look at Mi Jiang again.
And when the soldiers under Han Yan'er's command saw this, they naturally roared angrily and rushed towards Mijiang and them. Although Mi Jiang and the dozens of soldiers under his command are all people who are determined to die and are not afraid of death, how can they be opponents in the face of the siege of more than ten times the red turban soldiers. Therefore, in a moment, Mi Jiang and others died tragically.
After Mijiang was killed in battle, the remaining officers and soldiers naturally had no combat power at all after losing their backbone, that is, in a moment, the officers and soldiers defending the city fled and surrendered, and completely collapsed.
……
Two hours after the officers and soldiers dispersed, calm still did not return to the huge city of Ruyang. Squad after team of red turban sergeants are still patrolling the streets non-stop, and in some relatively remote streets, there are still fights from time to time.
After all, Ruyang City is so big that after thousands of officers and soldiers fled on the battlefield, they took off their uniforms and became ordinary people. Although most of these people dare not be the enemy of the Red Turban Army, there are many stragglers who want to take advantage of the fire to rob.
And in addition to these people, the Red Turbans are now a hodgepodge in their own right. After all, the strength of the Red Turban Army is still close to 40,000, and the forest is so big that there are all kinds of birds, and there are naturally many soldiers and ruffians who take the opportunity to rob homes and houses, and want to make a fortune with it.
But fortunately, the Red Turban Army is not corrupt and degenerate now, as a righteous army that has just emerged, the current Red Turban Army is still relatively pure. At least Liu Futong, Luo Wensu, Han Yan'er and other high-level generals still attach more importance to military discipline.
Although it is said that after the defeat of the officers and soldiers, there were many bastards in the Red Turban Army who were red-eyed and wanted to take the opportunity to rob their homes. However, these people were suppressed by Liu Futong at the first time. Therefore, there was no major mess.
At least, by this time, order had begun to gradually restore in the city. And speaking of Liu Futong, it was at this time that he led his soldiers to officially enter the capital city controlled by him.
……
At the city gate, Liu Futong, surrounded by the soldiers of the Red Turban Army, rode his horse into the Ruyang Mansion City, which is known as the world.
Looking at the bloodstains inside and outside Ruyang City, some corpses and broken arms that have not yet been cleaned up, and a series of ruins and broken walls such as houses affected by the war, Liu Futong's face couldn't help but show a smile.
"From today on, I, Liu Futong, finally have the qualifications to go down in history; From today on, I, Liu Futong, will also become a masterpiece; From today onwards, I will also create a new world, a world comparable to the Tang and Han dynasties. Liu Futong, who rode into the city, looked at the huge Ruyang Mansion City and the many soldiers under his command, and couldn't help but think of such ambition in his heart.
And after thinking about it, Liu Futong couldn't help but say to the generals of the Red Turban Army behind him: "There is an ancient saying: Those who win the Central Plains win the world. Ruyang City is in the middle of the world; Runing Mansion is the ancient Central Plains. Today, these two places are in my bag. This can be said to be God's blessing to my religion and God's blessing to our army. Thou shalt and I shall create an immortal deed! ”
Zhang Shihua and the others behind Liu Futong heard Liu Futong's words, and couldn't help but greet and shout: "The last general (lower official) will do his best, work together, and create an immortal cause for my holy religion." ”
"Good! Hahaha. Hearing the words of the generals behind him, Liu Futong rode on the horse, but he couldn't help laughing. And his wild laughter, compared with the tragic environment around him, made Zhang Shihua, who saw this scene behind him, feel bored for no reason.
"Gogo is endless, and the people are innocent; What is the sin of the people? Along the way, Zhang Shihua rode his horse and looked at the poor people around him who were affected by the war and the houses that were still burning with flames, but he couldn't help but think of this in his heart.
