On this day, the fog was filled, and Xingyang City was shrouded in it, like a fairyland on earth, and like a castle in the sky.

A team came from the south against the thick fog, and only stopped at the south gate of Xingyang, shouting at the top of their voices: "The defenders of the city quickly open the door, we are the vanguard of South Korea, and we have been ordered by General Kite to help you defend the city in advance!" ”

"Whoever is coming, quickly disarm and surrender, otherwise you will be killed!"

"Those who surrender will not die, and those who disarm will not be killed!"

"Kill......"

At the same time, the surrounding Tang army camp was full of killings, people shouted horses neighing, footsteps were like thunder, I don't know how many Tang troops surrounded the south gate of Xingyang, shouting the slogan "Those who surrender will not die".

The Han army under the city began to be irritable, and the insults came one after another: "The things raised by the bitches in the city are quickly opened, do you want us to be besieged by the Tang army?" ”

"What are the people, sending a messenger to ask for help like a pug, and the uncles came in the wind and snow, why don't you open the door quickly to greet them?"

"Damn, if you don't open the door again, the uncles will retreat!"

"This person can't be the vanguard of the United Tang Army to deceive us, they are originally a family!"

Dong Sheng, the general of the Kingdom of Qiu, who was inspecting the east city wall, rushed over as quickly as possible after receiving the news, and the prince Ji Dan, who was sitting on pins and needles in the palace, learned that the reinforcements had arrived, and hurriedly took Sun Zhong and other ministers to the city wall to watch.

Dong Sheng said with a look of embarrassment: "The fog is thick, the visibility is only ten zhang, the Han army just arrived at the city at this time, what should I do?" If you open the door to greet them, you are afraid of deception, and if you don't open the door, you are afraid that it is indeed South Korean reinforcements who come, and if you anger them, you will definitely abandon Xingyang and leave. ”

Ji Dan rubbed his hands together to keep warm, and said, "According to the time we spent repairing the book, the South Korean reinforcements should indeed arrive at this moment." You listen to the sound of the Tang camp killing the sky, and it is being surrounded and suppressed by different routes, and this reinforcement is true. ”

"Dare to ask which general is leading the team?" Dong Sheng's eyes widened, he stretched his neck and shouted to the city, "I'm tired of stepping forward to talk!" ”

A military general dressed as a captain urged the horse to carry a gun, and stepped forward to speak arrogantly: "I am Jia Kui, the general of South Korea, and I have been ordered by General Tyrant Kite to lead 5,000 people as a vanguard force to assist you in defending the city. The general had prepared the food and grass, and would arrive with an army of 50,000 men. I also hope to open the door as soon as possible, and let our army into to assist you and others in defending the city! ”

There was no flaw in what the other party said, Dong Sheng couldn't make up his mind for a while, and said tentatively: "I have an old acquaintance with your General Gongsun Wu, why don't you let him come to the rescue?" ”

"General Han" suddenly became angry, pointed at the horsewhip in his hand, and scolded: "When you dog asked for help, you wagked your tail and begged for mercy to my lord, and now our army is coming and not opening the city gate?" My country is a big country, how can you be compared to a small country? General Gongsun went to Xinzheng to sit in the town and resist the Lu army, do you still need to ask Shier to wait? ”

"Withdraw your troops!" General Han whistled his horse and left, "Go back and report to General Tyranny, just say that the people are closed, and let the Tang army besiege our army!" ”

Ji Dan hurriedly begged: "General Jia is angry, angry!" The widow is the new lord of the kingdom, and the widow believes in your words, so I command that the gates of the city be opened, and that you will be welcomed into the city. ”

Jia Kui snorted coldly, and his anger did not subside: "This is still like a person's words, open the door quickly!" ”

Dong Sheng stopped him on the city wall: "General Jia is slow, it is a matter of the survival of the country, Dong Sheng has to act cautiously!" I will open the city gate first, and you will send someone to send in the seal ribbon to check, if there is any offense, Dong will personally apologize to your Excellency after entering the city. ”

"Jia Kui" glanced at Ji Ling next to him, and saw Ji Ling nodding quietly at him, so he pretended to agree: "Alas...... You are really mother-in-law and mother-in-law, first begging your father to tell your mother for help, and you are suspicious when the reinforcements come. That's it, that's it...... Daji, send the general's seal into the city for Gong Yu to see! ”

"Whoa!"

Ji Ling agreed, carried a burden in his hand, hung the three-pointed two-edged halberd on the saddle, rode the horse to the moat, and shouted: "The seal is here, quickly fall off the drawbridge and open the city gate!" ”

Seeing that only Ji Ling was the only one who came, Dong Sheng was relieved, and waved his hand and ordered: "Drop the suspension bridge and open the city gate!" ”

With a "squeak" sound, the three-zhang long suspension bridge slowly fell, and the heavy city gate slowly opened.

The general Xu Deng took a hundred and ten elite soldiers to stand under the city gate and asked, "Where is the seal?" ”

Ji Ling urged the horse to cross the suspension bridge, and went straight to Xu Deng before stopping the horse, carrying the burden in his left hand and shouting: "The seal is here!" ”

Xu Deng stretched out his hand to pick it up, but saw a flash of cold light, and the three-pointed two-edged halberd in Ji Ling's hand swept over violently, hitting Xu Deng's neck; He slashed his head under his horse, blood gushing out like a spring, and the headless corpse fell to the ground.

"Oh no, General Xu has been killed!"

When the army arrived, there was a mess, and the people killed by Ji Ling wielding a three-pointed knife turned on their backs and retreated.

"Charge the whole army!"

Ji Ling's lieutenant general heard the sound of killing under the city gate, and with a big knife move in his hand, he led the charge in the lead, and stepped on the suspension bridge in a blink of an eye, slashed the iron rope with his sword, and cut it off in a few strokes.

"Kill!"

After cutting the iron cable, the Yu army could no longer pull up the drawbridge, and countless Tang troops charged forward with shields on their heads and arrows, stepped through the moat, passed through the city gate, and started a bloody street battle with the Yu army under the leadership of Ji Ling.

"It's over, it's over, after all, I still fell for the tricks of the Tang Army!"

Dong Sheng looked up to the sky on the city wall and sighed, looking at the Tang army swarming in, knowing that Xingyang was difficult to protect, he suddenly drew his sword and killed himself, "Ancestor Lord, I, Dong Sheng, am incompetent and can't assist the young master, so I will go with you today!" ”

Before the words fell, the sharp blade of the sword suddenly tore through his neck, the red blood gushed out, and the cold wind poured into the cavity "swishing", and Dong Sheng's whole person was paralyzed. "Poof" fell from the four-zhang high city wall, and never moved again.

After Ji Ling led his troops to capture the south city gate, and then opened the east gate of Xingyang, Zhao Yun jumped on his horse with a spear, and led nearly 10,000 Tang troops to swarm in, and besieged the Yu army in the city with Ji Ling.

Ma Dai and Zhou Yu led their troops to block the west gate and south gate of Xingyang respectively, and no one in the city could escape. The widow actually supported Yu Yu's merger into Tang, but Dong Sheng held the military power and coerced the widow to inherit the position of Duke Yu and fight against you. Now that Dong Sheng is dead, the widow is willing to surrender, but begs for mercy! ”

Zhao Yun knew that now was not the time to find out who was the initiator, the important thing was to first completely receive Xingyang's property and population, incorporate the army of the State of Qiu, and expand the strength of the Tang State. When Xingyang is completely controlled in the future, it will not be as easy as crushing an ant to kill Ji Dan!

"Come on, protect the son and the ministers, and turn it over to the general!"

With a move of Zhao Yun's spear, he ordered someone to control Ji Dan and the others first, and then led the troops straight to the treasury and the granary, which were heavily guarded by heavy troops, so as not to have a bad pool.

With the surrender of Ji Dan and Dong Sheng's self-slaughter, the dragons in Xingyang City were leaderless, and the Yu army surrendered one after another, and the people who assisted in defending the city fled home and closed the gates, lest they get into trouble.

When the rising sun broke through the haze, the battle also came to an end, and the Tang army opened the city gate by fraud and controlled Xingyang bloodlessly. In addition to Dong Sheng's self-slaughter, more than 10,000 monarchs and ministers of the Kingdom of Yu, including Ji Dan, and the army all surrendered.

Zhou Yu appeared on the list of An Min, promoted the policies of the Tang State, and vigorously promoted the Yu family; On the other hand, he sent an envoy to Hanoi to report the victory to Fang Li, and inform him of the good news of the capture of Xingyang.

"Haha...... It's really good, it only took a few hundred people to conquer Xingyang, and Gongjin really lived up to expectations! ”

After receiving the news of the conquest of Xingyang, Fang Li smiled, congratulated Xun Yu, Chen Deng and others, and sent Xun Yu to Xingyang to settle the situation and win people's hearts.

The center of gravity of the Kingdom of Yu is in Henan, including Xingyang, Yanshi, Jingxian, Yangcheng and other places with a combined population of more than one million, while Hanoi, Wude, Chenggao and other places in Hebei have a combined population of only 500,000, so Fang Li must manage Henan well.

As long as the people of the Kingdom of Yu accept the fact of the merger of Yu and no longer resist, the southern part of the Yellow River will become an important source of recruitment for Fang Li, and it will no longer be a problem to recruit 50,000 or 60,000 people from one million people.

After learning the news that Zhou Yu conquered Xingyang, Uncle Ji's face was like earth, and he sat behind the table and was stunned, knowing that the Kingdom of Yu had completely perished, and it was a great luck that he could live in the future, if he wanted to return to the country again, it would be a fool's dream!

Ji Zhai was a little gloating, holding a jar of wine to Ji Shubi to drink: "Haha...... I have long said that your country of Yu will also follow in the footsteps of our country of Yu, and now that you and I are suffering from the same disease, we should not bother with political affairs anymore. As long as Fang Li can serve the two of us with delicious food and drink, even if he burns high incense! ”

Ji Shubi sighed for a long time: "People can't fight with fate, you and I have no life for the country." If you want to live, I think you can simply give up the position of Tang Gong to Fang Li, so as to avoid being killed! ”

Ji Zhai also agreed with Ji Shubi's proposal: "Now that you and I are just puppets, it is better to give this false name directly to Fang Li." However, we have to make an agreement with him that we must give you and me money in the future, so that you and I will not be on the streets! ”

Speaking of which, the pair of brothers and sisters hugged their heads and cried, ordered someone to set up a banquet to drink, and summoned the dancing girl to dance for fun, discussing to find an opportunity to propose to Fang Li the matter of Zen and Tang Gong. But the premise is that Fang Li must promise to reward them with an idle position, and the treasury will pay them to Yulu on time in the future.

After Xun Yu arrived in Xingyang, he took over the government affairs, and Zhou Yu ordered Zhao Yun, Ji Ling, Ma Dai, Cao Xing and others to divide their troops to attack Yanshi, Jingxian, Yangcheng, Juan County and other territories belonging to the state of Qiu.

In just half a month, Zhou Yu completely pacified the territory of the former state of Yu in the south of the Yellow River, and included a million people under the rule of the Tang state. made Yu Yu truly integrated, the territory expanded, and the population skyrocketed to more than 2 million, once again attracting the attention of the princes of the world.
