Chapter 289: Soldiers Approaching the City

Huangcheng, under the two cities of single father, is still surrounded by a large number of troops, which puts great pressure on the defenders in the city. However, whether it is the defenders in the city, or Hua Rong and Le CD who are far away in Suiyang, they don't know that the main force of the Taoqiu army is no longer here!

Under these two cities, Dai Yan only placed two divisions of troops, and then requisitioned a large number of peasants from the newly conquered Guanqiu, Steroid Hill and other places, and let them come to the city to help shout and cheer!

Of course, before changing the army, Dai Yan first used Taoqiu's powerful infantry to teach the defenders in the city a lesson, so that they did not dare to leave the city easily, so a stalemate situation was formed inside and outside the city. Now that the main force of Taoqiu has been secretly transferred, no one can figure out the doorway.

However, for Chuqiu, a really important city, Dai Yan is still very concerned. This city can be regarded as a city that has been operated by the Le family for a long time, and there are two cities near it, Guanqiu and Steroid Hill, and Dai Yan does not dare to really let it go. So he left an army in the city to suppress the pressure brought by the Le clan and the Danshui!

At the same time, Dai Yan's first fiefdom since crossing over Fengyi had already entered a state of martial law at this time!

This state of Fengyi is not new. As early as when Taoqiu declared war on Suiyang, the entire Fengyi had already begun martial law under Dai Yan's orders. And Fengyi, which is along Surabaya to the south, understands Fengyi's approach very well.

After all, Fengyi is the territory of Tao Qiujun, and Tao Qiujun broke with Suiyang, and this place was inevitably involved in a whirlpool. When Liuyi did not officially express his stance on Suiyang's side, they were already accustomed to Fengyi's strict state. Even if Liuyi and Taoqiu broke up, because Taoqiu Jun still adopted a state of courtship and wooing for Liuyi, the heart of the doctor of Liuyi only raised his vigilance slightly, and he did not really put Fengyi in his eyes!

In his opinion, although Fengyi is also a big city, it has developed and flourished in recent years, but after all, the population base is there, and it is not much stronger than Liuyi! Moreover, there are two cities between Taoqiu and Fengyi, if Ziyan can't solve these two cities, he can't really pose any threat to himself!

And this contempt and negligence of his will eventually pay a serious price!

The envoy of Taoqiu once again came to the heart of the great master of Liuyi and persuaded him: "My lord is very sincere, and I hope you can stand on Taoqiu's side." After all, you and my lord belong to the same royal family, and you are not the same as Hua Rong and the Le family! My lord said that as long as you can be on our side, we will ......"

Before the Taoqiu envoy could finish speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Zixin. He directly refused: "Your envoy, don't say it again, Taoqiu is rebellious, and it is impossible for me to stand on your side!" If it weren't for the fact that I had a lot of trade between Liuyi and Taoqiu, I would have taken you to Suiyang like Dangyi! ”

Then, Zixin changed his words again and said to Taoqiu's envoy: "Although it is an unchangeable fact that Taoqiu committed a crime and committed a conspiracy against him, I am not interested in being an enemy of Taoqiujun. If your lord is willing, there is still communication between Taoqiu and my Liuyi, and I Liuyi will never refuse to trade with Taoqiu! ”

In Zixin's view, the current situation of civil strife in the Song Dynasty is the same as the civil strife in the late Spring and Autumn period of the Lu State. This civil strife has caused the entire Song Kingdom to fall apart, and it is not something that can be regrouped in a short period of time. In the future, the situation of the Song State will definitely be like the Lu State back then, there are many cities occupied by wealthy families, and many cities will be occupied by powerful countries. As for Taoqiu, it will become the same independent small country just like the powerful Ji clan lord Fei Yi became the Fei country independently!

Perhaps, Tao Qiujun will establish a new Cao State and become the monarch of Cao State canonized by Zhou Tianzi?

In fact, in today's world, the living space of small countries has become smaller and smaller. The small, independent countries have basically become vassals of the big powers. If Zixin pays a little attention to Dai Yan's movements, he knows that he is definitely not willing to become a vassal of a great power! But it is not for nothing that the Song Kingdom is called Song Deaf! The nobles of the Song Kingdom were ignorant and short-sighted, and they were famous in the whole world!

Zixin used his old aristocratic thinking to consider the current situation in the Song Kingdom, and used this as a response to a Taoqiu with a strong pioneering spirit!

The Taoqiu envoy was not too surprised to see Zixin's attitude. In fact, since he learned the fate of the Dangyi envoy, he didn't want to do such a thankless task anymore. However, he received an order that he must persuade Zixin again today, and he came with this mentality of completing the task, and sure enough, Tao Qiu's kindness was rejected by Zixin!

In fact, this persuasion by the Taoqiu envoy was Dai Yan's last chance to stay in the city!

It had just fallen into the night, and it was already extremely dark, and the guards of Liuyi began to slowly prepare to close the city gates. At this moment, near the North City, a few guys full of alcohol staggered from the city to the city gate one by one.

As soon as the guards saw this, a leader immediately stood up and said to a few "drunks" in a very angry manner: "You guys, stop immediately!" Now that the city gates are about to be closed, where can I get out! ”

As if they hadn't heard the doorman's words, the "drunkards" still hooked up and walked in the direction of the city gate, talking about things that the men liked to see from time to time.

Seeing these "drunks" so ignorant, the doorman became even more angry, and the person who stood up even directly pulled out a stick, walked up to the "drunks", and hit one of them with a stick!

However, before his stick could fall, he suddenly found that the strength of his whole body had begun to disappear, and he looked down to find that a sharp arrow had been inserted into his chest!

Then he fell to the ground like this, and he didn't know what to do!

The guards in the back were dumbfounded, and when someone reacted and wanted to warn, they had just shouted a word, and they had all been shot by these "drunks" with accurate crossbow arrows!

Immediately afterward, the drunkards attacked the guards standing on the tower! Since Liuyi itself was a small city, there were very few soldiers on the city walls, but in just a few minutes, the entire guards near the city gate were all wiped out by these drunks!

After eliminating the guards at the entrance to the city, the drunks began to light torches on the gatehouse to send signals. As soon as this news was released, in just a few minutes, the sound of horses' hooves was heard from outside the city gate, and then, a cavalry of thousands of people rushed to the front at a rapid speed and entered the city through the city gate!

The cavalry was followed by a large number of infantry. A steady stream of soldiers began to march into the city south of Fengyi.

The whole city began to fall into fighting, and then quickly calmed down.

The heart of the doctor of Liuyi rose from the woman's belly, and when he was disturbed by his subordinates, he was very angry! In his opinion, no matter how big the matter is, it can't catch up with the importance of his private affairs, even if the sky falls, he can hold on!

Therefore, this royal nobleman deliberately took a shelf and delayed it for more than ten minutes. When he got dressed up and came to the front yard of the Yi Mansion from his backyard, the others had not yet arrived, so he scolded first: "You waste, you can't deal with any trivial things, what is it that needs to be disposed of by Dr. Ben?" ”

However, when he himself arrived at the front yard of the Yi Mansion, he found that his guards were no longer there, and there were even some blood stains on the ground. A young general who was too young and dressed in armor sat on the main seat in the front hall of the Yi Mansion with such a big grin.

Seeing such a scene, Zixin was a little stunned, and then he angrily questioned the young man: "Who are you, and who allowed you to enter the Yi Mansion?" ”

The young man grinned, showed his snow-white teeth, and said to Zixin: "Le Yi, the cavalry captain under the command of Xia Taoqiu Jun, Your Excellency must be staying in Yiyi to guard Zixin, right?" My lord is invited! ”

How could the generals under Tao Qiujun come to my Liuyi so blatantly? Zixin is a little inexplicable. However, when he saw such a stranger here, he didn't see his guards, and there were blood stains on the ground, such a strange scene made him a little frightened. He immediately began to scream, wanting people to expel Le Yi.

Le Yi didn't care about the other party's actions at all, and after he shouted, he said to him indifferently: "It's useless for you to shout through your voice, now the entire Liuyi has been captured by my Taoqiu." Come with me now and go to see my lord! ”

After Le Yi finished speaking, he walked directly in front of Zixin, knocked him to the ground with a scabbard, and at the same time asked two of his subordinates to come over and escort Zixin out.

Such a scene made Zixin realize that the entire Liuyi had been broken by Taoqiu, and he had become a prisoner!

The gate of Liuyi City was opened, and Dai Yan rode into this city on horseback, escorted by soldiers. At the end of the road, there is the Yi Mansion of Liuyi, and in front of the Yi Mansion are the heroic Le Yi, and the heart of the master who is willing to stay in the Yi with a depressed face and room for kneeling!

As soon as Zixin saw Dai Yan, he immediately said to Ziyan regardless of his image: "Ziyan, how can you treat me like this, you and I are both part of the royal family, and when it comes to seniority, I am still your uncle!" As long as you let me go, I'm willing to surrender! ”

Seeing that Zixin was still a little unbright, Dai Yan was also a little helpless: "Zixin, didn't I give you a chance before?" Since you yourself didn't seize this opportunity and rejected my kindness, then don't blame me for not missing family affection! Now that the entire Liuyi is completely in my hands, what qualifications do you have to surrender to me? ”

After saying that, he didn't care about his son's heart, and directly entered the Liuyi Mansion, which can be regarded as a complete conquest of this city!

Liuyi itself is the territory of the imperial family. When Zixin was a doctor in Yi, the clansmen of the Huang clan were willing to be loyal to him under his banner. However, when Ziyan stepped into such a city and took charge of it as Tao Qiujun, the entire city immediately surrendered to his feet again!

And the only thing Dai Yan needs to do is to remove all Zixin's subordinates in the Yi Mansion and reappoint new bureaucrats to manage this place!

Liuyi, under this lightning-like surprise attack, changed hands in an instant and became another city on Dai Yan's territory. When I woke up at dawn the next day, the whole of Liuyi had already begun to accept the new owner.

And along Surabaya to the south, Pengcheng, which is located at the hub, has also undergone drastic changes at this time. The ruler of this place, Peng Cheng Ling Zizhang, woke up early in the morning and saw that the east, south and north sides of Pengcheng had been surrounded by a large army, and the entire Surabaya was full of boats coming and going!

After investigating, he learned that Taoqiu had a total of more than 70,000 people in six armies, plus more than 20,000 clan soldiers led by the nobles of the East China Sea, a total of 100,000 troops had already arrived under the city of Pengcheng!
