After the fiasco of the camp at the end of May, An Long, the commander of Shuixi City, was sluggish, ignored everything, drank and had fun day and night, and his local officials and Tumu saw all this in their eyes.

As the news of the change in the mountain city of Muorg came, these people immediately blew up.

These local officials and local officials who have their own land in the world are all retainers of the Shuixian clan.

However, the land they owned in the world was not given by An Bangyan, but by the Shuixi clan that had been passed down for thousands of years.

Although Mrs. Luxury's surname is Luxury, before she was in power, this Mrs. Luxury was the symbol of the Shuixi An's clan and the "Tho Mu" who led the affairs of the Xuanwei Division in Guizhou on behalf of Shuixi.

Now that An Bangyan has killed Mrs. Hao, the next step may be to kill An Wei to stand on his own, if An Bangyan is destined to win in the end, then these people should not see it.

But in this situation, the officials and troops are besieging on all sides, Shuixi is in danger, An Bangyan is almost certain to fail, how can these local officials and Tumu who have a place in the world be willing to follow An Bangyan all the way to the dark?

The principle of buying up and not buying down is the same in ancient and modern times.

After the news of the change in Muoge Mountain City came, these people soon began to connect with each other and went to test An Long's attitude.

Finally, on the morning of 12 June, Zhu Xieyuan and Xu Chengming led the main force of the official army to the east of Shuixi City in a hurry.

On a hillside in the east of Shuixi City, Zhu Xieyuan, Xu Chengming, Shi Yongan, Luo Ganxiang, and the leaders of the Guangxi wolf soldiers, Mo Keji, Wei Ang, and others, visited the huge corpse tower Jingguan that Liu Zhaoji personally commanded.

After that battle was over, a terrified An Long blocked the east gate of Shuixi City.

Liu Zhaoji and Wang Guozhen couldn't sit idle, so they took turns out of the camp and attacked the Yimiao village near Shuixi City.

The young and strong men in the village have long been ordered by Anlong to be drawn as soldiers and become the defenders of Shuixi City.

Therefore, whether it was the attack of the Tiance guards under Liu Zhaoji or the attack of the Guizhou soldiers under Wang Guozhen, it was extremely smooth.

The army under Liu Zhaoji's command was strictly disciplined, and in addition to having to shoot the rebels in the Yi and Miao villages, they basically did not kill the old and weak women and children left behind in the nearby Yi and Miao villages, but recruited more than 2,000 men, women, and children, and escorted them to the east gate of Shuixi City, where they collected the corpses everywhere one by one and transported them to a nearby hillside.

In order to deter the Yi people, Miao people, and Gelao people who dared to resist in and around Shuixi City, Liu Zhaoji learned from the practice of the Liaodong Army, and on the top of this hillside, he commanded these captured mountain people to build a huge corpse tower Jingguan.

A layer of corpses, a layer of earth and stones, layer upon layer, rammed up.

More than 4,200 heads were rammed into the earth and stone tower with the corpse, and only the hideous and terrifying face was exposed on the four walls of the corpse tower.

The circumference of the base of the tower is 30 steps, the body of the tower is on all sides, the upper part is narrow and the lower is wide, and the height is more than three zhang.

The Yi people in Shuixi worship ghosts and gods, and the reason why the ancient Luodian country is also called the Luodian ghost country, and its lord is called the ghost master, is this reason.

Therefore, the people of Yimiao Mountain around Shuixi City, who were recruited to build this corpse tower Jingguan, although they were greatly psychologically shocked, were conscientious and did not resist the matter of building a tower for the corpse.

In stark contrast to the strict military discipline of Liu Zhaoji's department, Wang Guozhen's department regarded the villages around Shuixi City, such as Yi Miao, Lao Lao, Zhongjiamiao, etc., as rebel Miao thief villages, and burned and looted all the way.

Within ten days, 21 thieves' villages were burned and plundered in the vicinity of Shuixi City, killing more than 10,000 men, young and old, and obtaining thousands of stones of rice, cattle, sheep, horses, and mules.

To each his own gold and silver, to his own soldiers.

Wang Guozhen's troops returned from looting, and their morale was high, and they saw that the soldiers of Tiance were red-eyed.

However, limited to Liu Zhaoji, Mo Youjing's strict orders, no matter how red he is, he can only watch.

Like Wang Guozhen's department or the rumored Guangxi wolf soldiers, the act of plundering is never allowed to happen or exist in Tiancewei.

This is also the special requirement of the Chongzhen Emperor for the guards of the pro-army, the Beijing camp and the guards.

For those border troops, inland battalion soldiers and guard soldiers who often had to fight bravely due to lack of pay and food, the current Chongzhen Emperor does not have high discipline requirements for them.

And he never expected these armies to be able to do the military and civilian, and the autumn without committing any crimes.

Especially in Yunnan, Guichuan and other southwestern regions, the Yi and Miao mountain people sometimes rebelled from time to time, and they were afraid of power but not virtue, and they were simply feuds or natural enemies with the officials and soldiers stationed there.

Historically, after the death of Hao Chongming and An Bangyan, Zhu Xieyuan sent someone to pass on the letter to surrender An, but a few years later, Anwei died of illness and died, and the Shuixian clan rebelled again, and the old Zhu Xieyuan pacified them again.

After Zhu Xieyuan died, the local officials of the Shuixi clan once again took the opportunity to make trouble, and the Ming court had to send troops again to pacify the southwest at the expense of food and salaries under the crisis of the Ming Dynasty in the northeast and thieves in the northwest.

Just such a place involved a lot of energy from Emperor Chongzhen and the Ming Dynasty.

This time, Emperor Chongzhen ordered Zhu Xieyuan not to appease An Throne, let alone to appease rebellion leaders such as An Bangyan.

At the same time, among the instructions given to Zhu Xieyuan, there were basically no requirements for military discipline for the officers and soldiers who encircled and suppressed the Yi Rebellion in Shuixi or the rebellion in Shuixi.

Of course, Zhu Xieyuan also understood this meaning.

Therefore, he also knew about the killing of Hou Liangzhu and others in the mansion.

This time, he led the main force of the Guiyang official army to the outside of Shuixi City, and knew that Wang Guozhen had slaughtered the rebel Miao thieves in the past few days, and he also nodded silently.

Only to praise the Tiance Guardian Award under Liu Zhaoji.

On the one hand, the main credit for the battle under Shuixi City was Tiancewei.

On the other hand, it was the Jingguan of the corpse tower named by Zhu Xieyuan on the spot, which made Zhu Xieyuan, who had always hoped to completely give a profound lesson to the Tusi in the southwest.

On the morning of June 12, Zhu Xieyuan's visit to the Zhensoul Tower surrounded by generals naturally fell into the eyes of the Shuixi defenders on the east gate of Shuixi City.

By the time An Long led all the people under his command to climb the East Gate Tower in a panic to observe the situation outside the city, Zhu Xieyuan had already led the generals to the official camp under the city.

The ten great general's cannons that had just arrived outside the city had also been placed in front of the position about 200 steps away from the east gate of Shuixi City by the soldiers of Tiance Guard in an atmosphere of joy and cheering.

The east gate of Shuixi City had been blocked, and the officials and soldiers were not worried about the defenders of the city going out of the city to seize the artillery, so they placed the extremely precious general cannons that could be transported to Shuixi as close to the city as possible.

When Zhu Xieyuan came to the official camp outside the city surrounded by generals, Liu Zhaoji immediately ordered Mo Youjing to command his men and horses to load and fire artillery.

Mo Youjing, who had already calculated the distance and elevation angle, immediately fired at the wall of Shuixi City.

With a loud "bang", a seven-pound iron bullet galloped out and slammed into the city wall of the east gate of Shuixi City, making a one-foot-square hole in the wall made of earth and stone.

And An Long and the others, who were on top of the city tower, heard this loud noise at the same time, they also felt the vibration under their feet, and immediately left in a hurry.

Next, the ten general's cannons took turns to ignite and fire, and one by one the red-hot projectiles hit a wall made of earth and stone.

After only half an hour of such a close bombardment, the stone outer wall of the wall crumbled and fell off, revealing the rammed earth inside.

After another half an hour, the tower on the east gate suddenly collapsed, and the defenders of the city, hidden behind the battlements, were in great confusion and fled from the city.

An Long, who led the people to hide in the city, looked at the city wall that was gradually deformed and cracked under the heavy blows of the official artillery again and again, and quickly made up his mind and made up his mind, so that his nephew An Shirong took out a white cloth, tied it to a bamboo gun, and walked to the head of the city.

None of the people who followed An Long raised questions or objected.

There were only more than 1,000 Shuixi Yi soldiers left by An Bangyan at the beginning, because their families were in Dafang, they were afraid that their families would be executed, so they took advantage of the chaos to open the west gate, left in a hurry, and fled to Dafang Muoge Mountain City.
