Chapter Seventy-Five: Overwhelming
Seeing this, Han Yan'er also understood, it turned out that Liu Protector had already left a back hand in the county. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
However, at this time, Han Yan'er didn't have time to think about anything more, so he greeted him, and rushed towards the city gate with dozens of his subordinates. Seeing this, the other White Lotus Sect soldiers who were besieging the city also changed the direction of their attacks, and rushed towards the city gate with the hall master Han Yan'er.
Seeing this, Yue Shiwu on the city wall only felt that the sky was spinning for a while, and even the weapon in his hand fell to the ground, but fortunately, the guards around him quickly supported him in time, which did not make Yue Shiwu collapse to the ground.
Yue Shiwu looked at the White Lotus bandits who were constantly pouring into the county, and lamented weakly: "It's over, it's all over, it's all over." ā
The city gate was breached, which caused an incomparably huge psychological blow to the officers and soldiers defending the city, who were already demoralized. The last resistance in the hearts of this group of officers and soldiers also dissipated, and now the city wall is full of officers and soldiers who have lost their weapons and fled, and the White Lotus Sect soldiers outside the city easily attacked the city wall and slaughtered the officers and soldiers who had no intention of resisting.
At this time, even if Bai Qi was reincarnated and Han Xin was born, it was estimated that there would be no way to lead this group of officers and soldiers to turn defeat into victory. So Yue Shiwu said yes, the officers and soldiers and himself are indeed finished.
But Yue Shiwu's personal guards were still loyal to their duties, they saw that the city gate was breached, and the bandits had entered the city, and they also knew that they were powerless to return to the sky, so they hurriedly pulled Yue Shiwu, who was in a trance, to run down the city, ready to break out with the chief officer.
But how could those White Lotus Sect soldiers who had finally entered the city let go of such a big fish, and the dozens of White Lotus Sect soldiers who attacked the city wall were even more desperate to bite Yue Shiwu and them. Even Han Yan'er, who was attacking the city, saw Yue Shiwu and others fighting and retreating by the city wall, and rushed forward with his own soldiers with a shout.
There were more and more people besieging Yue Shiwu, looking at the hundreds of enemies around him, and the guards who were constantly killed and wounded, Yue Shiwu also knew that he would not be able to escape this time.
In desperation, when he saw Han Yan'er, who seemed to be the leader of the White Lotus bandits, he wanted to shout that he was going to surrender, but he didn't expect that an arrow shot out of nowhere, hitting him in the throat. Yue Shiwu clutched the blood that kept spurting out of his neck, and thought in his heart; "Are you going to die? No, I can't die, I'm going to be a thousand households, I can't die. ā
But now he couldn't say anything, looking at the white clouds that came into view, Yue Shiwu fell to the ground, whimpering for his life.
"Lord Yue is dead, Lord Yue is dead." The soldiers beside Yue Shiwu looked at Yue Shiwu's corpse that was killed by arrows, and shouted in panic.
And Han Yan'er, who was on the other side, saw that the main officer and soldier were dead, and immediately raised his weapon and shouted; "The thief is dead! Disarm or kill! ā
The guards beside Han Yan'er also suddenly understood, and shouted together: "The thief is dead!" Disarm or kill! "The commander died in battle, just when the morale of the officers and soldiers defending the city was at its lowest, and when he heard the White Lotus Sect bandits on the opposite side shouting this, he suddenly had no heart to resist. So those officers and soldiers threw down their weapons one after another and surrendered to the White Lotus Sect bandits.
Seeing that all the officers and soldiers defending the city had surrendered, Han Yan'er couldn't help but smile on his face, but the war was not over yet, although the officers and soldiers defending the city had surrendered, the county government had not yet taken it. So Han Yan'er hurriedly divided a part of his subordinates, collected the weapons of this group of officers and soldiers, and put them in charge of guarding this group of prisoners.
Then he took the rest of his men and continued to kill in the direction of the county office. However, before going to the county office, Han Yan'er also sent a personal guard to ride a fast horse to Liu Futong outside the city to announce the good news for Liu Fu.
ā¦ā¦
Half an hour later, the White Lotus Sect completely controlled the situation in ZS County.
Because the Yuanmeng Imperial Court was extremely ruthless in oppressing the people, there was not much resistance in the hearts of the people about the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect. After all, there are not many people who want to rebel now, and the White Lotus Sect just does what most people want to do, but they dare not do.
Besides, for most of the people, whether it is the rule of the White Lotus Sect or the rule of the imperial court, they don't care much. Because for a group of ordinary people who don't even know how to cook the next meal, these things really mean nothing to them.
Compared with these things, the common people are more concerned that the White Lotus Church will not be like the imperial court, only knowing that it oppresses them, or is worse than the Yuanmeng court, just like the robbers outside the city, leaving them no way to live. Although many of them had believed in the White Lotus Sect and knew something about the words propagated by the White Lotus Sect, who could guarantee that these would be true. After all, I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if.
But now it seems that the White Lotus Sect is doing well, in front of the gate of the county government, the White Lotus Sect soldiers not only counted the sins of the Yuanmeng court, but also opened the official warehouse to release grain at the first time, and also executed a lot of ruffians who wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob on the spot, and because the White Lotus Sect soldiers did not commit any crimes when they entered the city, so this carrot and stick method is very effective.
At least in this Yingshang Xian City, the White Lotus Sect can be said to have won the hearts of the people.
But Liu Futong, as the commander of the White Lotus Sect, did not stay in this county for long, and when the situation in Yingshangxian was roughly stable, he led his army and rushed to the direction of Yingzhou City.
Speaking of Yingzhou City, because of the relationship between time and the road, the officers and soldiers sent by Yue Shiwu for help did not arrive in the state city until the evening.
Regarding the White Lotus Sect's gathering of people to rebel and attack the county seat, the officials of Yingzhou City were all surprised, but after being surprised, they immediately reacted. After all, the White Lotus Sect's rebellion was not a trivial matter for a state capital.
But no matter how anxious you are, you can only send reinforcements early tomorrow morning, and in this way, it will take three days to get to Yingshangxian.
As for Yingshang Xian, whether he can hold on, the adults in the state city feel that in three days, Yingshang Xian should still be able to hold on. After all, Yingshangxian had stationed hundreds of officers and soldiers, even if the White Lotus Sect gathered thousands of people to make a rebellion, it would be impossible to break through the county seat without spending a few days.
But what the adults in Yingzhou City never expected was that Yingshangxian was not only conquered by the White Lotus Sect, but when their officers and soldiers left Yingzhou City, the White Lotus army led by Liu Futong had already reached the halfway point.
And because the world is still peaceful, there are not many officers and soldiers stationed in Yingzhou City, and all the officers and soldiers combined, there are more than 800 people when they are full. Of course, it was more than 1,000 officers and soldiers who reported to the above, after all, eating empty salaries has long become the basic welfare of the generals.
In addition, three hundred people were stationed in Yingshangxian two days ago, so there were only more than 500 officers and soldiers left in Yingzhou City, and now these more than 500 people have also been taken out by all the thousands of adults in Yingzhou City.
As for why the officers and soldiers are so confident that they can defend Yingshang Xian City, it is because these adults have entered a misunderstanding, they have always thought that it is the common people of Yingshang Xian who are rebelling, and who would have thought that the White Lotus Sect could gather such a group of people under their noses.
So next, the fate of this rescue officer and soldier is undoubtedly tragic.
The rescue officers and soldiers who were busy hurrying on the road with their heads bowed did not expect that they would encounter the White Lotus Sect army on the way, let alone such an army.
You must know that the quality of the officers and soldiers themselves is not as good as that of the White Lotus Instructor, and it is good to rely on the city wall to fight a defensive battle, but without preparation, to fight a war with an enemy who is several times the number of their own, it is no different from sending them to death.
And the results that happened later also confirmed this, when the Qianhu officials of Yingzhou City saw the White Lotus army of thousands of people on the opposite side on the road, they were completely confused. And when he reacted, the first thing that came to his mind was to run. "Nainai's, just rely on the people in your hands to fight against such a bandit, isn't that looking for death, if you don't run, you will wait for such death." As soon as this idea came out, the Lord of the Thousand Households immediately turned his horse's head and ran towards the state city with his personal guard.
And when the officers and soldiers underground saw that the main general had run away, they naturally would not continue to stay here and die, and immediately ran to the state city with the main general.
Seeing this, Liu Futong on the other side couldn't help but be happy and said: "If you run, I'll chase you." ā
So he immediately ordered a pursuit, and between this run and pursuit, the 500 officers and soldiers were defeated in a daze. Those pursuing White Lotus Sect soldiers even chased to Yingzhou City in one go, and then Yingzhou City was conquered.
In this way, the rebel army of the White Lotus Sect connected two cities within three days, and its prestige was so great that the world looked sideways.
