Chapter 81 Breaking the City

Li Zhe was in the formation, only to hear a thunderstorm in front of him, and the entire river valley was covered by the dust raised by the earthquake, and then, before the dust dissipated, the whole army thundered, the golden drums sounded in unison, and the Song army as a whole pressed up, just like a long-congested river suddenly bursting its embankment, and the battalions of the first array in front of it were unstoppably pouring into the city like a tide.

Finally, it was the turn of the array of the second battalion to come to the front of the formation, looking at the battalions fighting in front, the sound of guns and gongs and drums shook the sky, and the soldiers in the battalion were extremely nervous. There are also those who are gearing up, there are those who have dry mouths, and some whose torsos are trembling, and they are almost unable to stand.

Everyone also said that this time they would finally meet the enemy.

Who knows that after a while,

"The city is broken, the city is broken!"

The cheers of the city resounded throughout the city,

Li Zhe was as anxious as if he couldn't cross the river, and finally grabbed an officer he knew well and asked:

"What happened in the city in front, why did you shout that the city was broken, wasn't this city wall broken early?"

The officer fixed his eyes and recognized who Li Zhe was.

"Hah! Commander Lee! The city is broken, not because the city walls have been broken, but because the last resistance has been broken in the city, and the enemy in the city has surrendered! ”

"What, it's falling, it's already falling, but our second battalion, our second formation hasn't met the enemy yet!"

Seeing Li Zhe's eagerness to fight, the officer smiled and said:

"Then what can we do, is that Chief Hu wants to surrender, not only your second battalion, but the entire Chinese army is not sticky with meat. Could it be that Li ordered you to go into the city quickly and persuade Chief Nahu to hold on a little longer. ”

This is obviously a joke.

But the message is unmistakable.

Li Zhe's second battalion had been in battle for a long time, but he didn't think that the enemy in the city would be completely broken before it lasted a morning. There is no way, the combat power of the Song army in this era is so strong, in the face of the Song army's strong attack, the enemy Ren is no matter what city is like paper paste in front of the Song army.

calculated, there is still a period of time before lunch, and the tens of thousands of troops here can even rush into the city to eat, which really makes Li Zhe speechless, this is Li Zhe's real first battle in this life.

After a while, sure enough, news came from the front, asking the second battalion to march into the city.

The second battalion formed a column, and poured into the city along the torrent into the city, and the traces of war in the city had not had time to be carefully cleaned, and the scene of the section of the city wall that was broken by the collapse method looked quite tragic, and in the blue bricks and rubble, the broken bodies and broken arms abounded, and the faces of people who still maintained the frightened eyes of the moment before death were mixed in, and it was still terrifying to look at.

At this time, the city was full of Song soldiers, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, the city was besieged tightly, the whole city was large, and the people in the city were driven out door to door, and from time to time there were terrible cries, which was really miserable.

Li Zhe didn't need to look at it to know that the Song soldiers under this could not have too strong discipline, what three disciplines and eight points of attention, don't even think about it, this whole city is a good opportunity for the officers and soldiers below to loot money and accumulate their own wealth, even if they are self-owned officials, it is not easy to come forward to stop them at this time.

Moreover, this plundering of the whole city was also related to the wealth of the officers of the various divisions and the merchants who accompanied the army, and in the eyes of the warring parties, the inhabitants of the enemy city who had actively resisted had lost their rights as civilians, and naturally became slaves in the eyes of the people who could be exchanged for money.

This is almost the tacit unspoken rule of both sides of the war in this era, and it is concerned about the morale of all officers and soldiers.

After the war, the whole army sold it to the merchants in a unified manner, but there was no chance of the second battalion participating in such a beautiful thing as raiding the house in the city.

Even in the modern history of later generations, such examples are not uncommon. Just like when the Japanese army invaded China in the past.

War is so cruel. Losers don't have the luxury of being human beings.

Li Zhe and Ma Zhong walked on the streets of Kundu City after the city was broken, and they frequently sighed in their hearts, which reminded him more and more of what era he was in, and he was glad that he was born in the Great Song Dynasty, and he didn't have to worry about his family falling into such a situation.

The two of them walked to the door of a mansion, which was full of exotic style, and at first glance the main house was a Persian tradition, and the house had a distinctly Persian style.

The whole mansion occupies an extremely large area, wide and luxurious, and from the door you can see the golden dome of the building inside, shining golden in the sun. This family must have been one of the few families in the city before.

The two were hesitating to go in and enjoy this exotic style mansion, when they suddenly heard the crying inside becoming more and more poignant and sharp, getting closer and closer, and in a blink of an eye, a group of people came out of front of the door.

The two took a look, and there was another acquaintance among them, who was Shi Xiu, the commander of the Second Regiment who had a relationship with each other before, and I heard that he was the first to make the first contribution when the city was broken, and he was a famous member of the army.

That Shi Xiu was holding a woman in one hand, clipped under her arm like a package, and walked in front with her head held high, followed by a group of people behind her, carrying all kinds of seizures on her back, all of which were gold and jewelry. It seems that this family has gained a lot of money.

There was also a group of crying women, dressed in Persian-style clothes, who also obediently followed behind, only looking at the woman in Shi Xiu's hand, but they didn't dare to step forward.

Shi Xiu saw Li Zhe and smiled,

"Heh, Xiucai, you just want to go around and see if you have a chance to make a poem."

LI Zhedao,

Commander Shi laughed.

Shi Xiu smiled:

"Hey, it's all the same anyway, in short, you must be smart, I heard that writing is excellent, I know a lot of people who praise your book, when will it, you might as well write our old stone into the book."

"Don't dare, Commander Shi praised it." Li Zhe saw Shi Xiu's behavior like this, and he was only curious, where was there anything on his mind to perfunctory with him.

Shi Xiu looked at Li Zhe's eyes on the woman under his armpit, and said:

"Hey! You see I found this woman, she looks quite beautiful, who knows that she swore not to obey our old stone when she asked, so I had to be strong to get it, you talk about this thing, it's obviously a good thing! You must know that they don't follow me, and when they are taken away by those traffickers, the end will only be worse, this is such a simple truth, why don't this family understand? ”

Li Zhe looked at the woman who was sandwiched under Shi Xiu's armpit, and sure enough, her face was extremely beautiful, her skin was fair, she didn't look like the skin color of the local indigenous race at all, and she was also dressed very specially, so she knew at a glance that it was probably not an ordinary identity.

Li Zhe's heart moved, and he said:

"Commander Shi, a Pomeranian smile is a literati elegant thing, you are too rude, I have an idea here,"

"You say!"

"Why don't I come forward and buy this beauty from the conductor......"

When Shi Xiu heard this, he smiled,

"Hahaha! Boy, no wonder others say you're cunning, sure enough, don't you obviously have a crush on this woman and want to rob me of a woman? ”

Li Zhe was seen through, so he had to laugh,

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

Shi Xiu originally looked at it and wanted to tease Li Zhe, but suddenly he didn't know that his brain was wrong, and his words changed, and he said:

"Since you want this woman, it's not impossible."

Well? Li Zhe looked at Shi Xiu in surprise.

"Just give me a hundred shots of your fire! I know you kid must have a lot of spare firearms with you, so it's no problem to give them to me. ”

Although the military has begun to purchase Li Zhe's Li's firearms, the Northern Expedition can't catch up, so so far Li Zhe only has a few hundred rods for his own use.

In one sentence, he took Li Zhe, then put down the doll in his hand, and turned the woman around to show Li Zhe,

"Hey, a hundred, it's worth the money! This woman has so many people to serve, her identity is definitely not simple, there are more than a few hundred things on this woman alone, you kid has made a lot of money! ”

Obviously, Shi Xiu, like Li Zhe, saw that this woman was not simple.
