Chapter 215: Occupy Shandong
The two looked at each other and said, "Where did this enemy come from!" Let's go meet him! "Before they could go out as a team, another Tanma came to report, and it had been confirmed that it was the Dengzhou Water Division and the Liangshan Water Army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hah! It's the big brother they're here, it seems that Dengzhou and Donglai have arrived, let's go and greet them! The two men said as they got on their horses and went to meet them.
It was indeed Zhang Ding and Zhou Shaoji's sailors who came from the east, Dengzhou and Donglai had always been Yang Lin's territory, and later returned to Hu'er and Zhou Fashang; After these two people left, they arranged for Lai Cheng and Zhou Shaoji to take over their positions.
Lai Cheng and Zhou Shaoji gave an order, and these people immediately changed their flags and surrendered to Liangshan. Zhang Ding and Zhou Shao should have arrived in Qingzhou a long time ago; But as soon as they left; A wealthy family in Donglai suddenly rioted. The two turned back to quell the chaos, only to kill a bloody man all over the ground, and people's heads hung all over the city gate, and then they waved Qingzhou again.
However, when they came again, Cheng Yanjin had already captured Qingzhou, and on the way they came, they happened to meet Shi Fan Zeng and others who wanted to go to Dengzhou to move the rescuers, so they took them down in one fell swoop and joined Cheng Yanjin.
Zhang Shigui, Kan Ling, and Shi Danai have besieged Beihai County for almost ten days after converging, but they have not attacked, but have sent people to persuade Pei Caozhi to surrender. Pei Caozhi is a direct descendant of the Pei family in Hedong Wenxi, he is an honest official, loves the people like a son, and is deeply loved by the locals.
This time, the siege of Liangshan did not burn and loot like the thieves of the year, but persuaded the people to surrender while pacifying the people and distributing the land. Their actions made Pei Cao's popularity accumulated over the years lose all of a sudden, and the people of Beihai County fell to Liangshan one-sidedly.
Zhang Shigui waited for the news that Cheng Yanjin had taken Qingzhou and successfully completed the strategic deployment with Zhang Ding and others, and laughed at Kan Ling and Shi Danai and others: "Generals, taking Beihai is today!" Everyone follow me to the city! If Pei Caozhi doesn't know what to do, we will wave our troops to attack the city! ”
Although everyone didn't understand why the lord had waited until now to attack the city, they just screamed excitedly, and then went out to organize the team and march towards Beihai County.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! "The Liangshan army cracked the flag gate under the city of Donglai; A group of spearmen marched in order. "Bo Bo Bo" went to Beihai City. Pei Caozhi and his officials at the head of the city looked even more colorful.
Zhang Shigui said hello to Kan Ling and the others, and Ma Xiangqian shouted at the head of the city: "Please Pei Junshou come out and speak!" Pei Caozhi is already in his 40s, he leaned on the city wall and looked down and said: "This official is Pei Caozhi, what will the thief say." ”
The halberd in Zhang Shigui's hand stood up and said, "Pei Junshou!" We have heard of your official name, and we have admired your character. However, the lord of Sui has no way, and we seek rebellion with obedience; The army is invincible and invincible everywhere. In the whole of Shandong, there is only one lonely city left in Beihai, it's not that we can't take this city, it's just that we pity Pei Junshou's talent, and I can't bear to lose my life.
Now that it's the last time, I'm asking Pei Junshou if he surrenders! If it doesn't fall, the jade will be burned on the day the city is broken! Pei Caozhi, will it fall or not? ”
As Zhang Shigui shouted, more than 10,000 soldiers under his command shouted together: "To surrender or not to surrender?" To drop or not to fall? To drop or not to fall? The neat shouts shook the heavens and the earth, and the officials in the city changed color one by one, and they all secretly looked at Pei Caozhi.
Seeing Pei Caozhi's hesitation, he couldn't make up his mind; Zhang Shigui smiled and said to Kan Ling and Shi Danai: "General Kan, General Shi, it seems that Master Pei's determination is really difficult, let's help him make up his mind!" ”
Kan Ling admired Zhang Shigui's ability very much through this time of time, so he smiled and said: "Please General Zhang's subordinates, sons, to demonstrate for us the strength of the Liangshan army, and also let my subordinates have a good look at this half bottle of vinegar!" ”
"General Kan is so polite! You are the veteran of the cottage, and it should be us juniors to ask for advice! But since General Kan has an order, he will not shirk it! Come on, arrow array, siege! ”
The soldiers of the Lin Zi Brigade shouted three times: "Lin! Forest! Forest! Then the guns moved slowly forward, and when they reached the edge of the city's firing range, they paused and stopped.
The archers behind also entered the attack range, and then there was a creaking sound, and hundreds of crossbows were neatly arranged behind them.
"Crossbow adjustment! God Arm Bow Ready! With a command, the crossbow was loaded with spear-like arrows, and the Divine Arm Archer pulled out the crossbow machine!
"Launch!" The flag waved, "Hum! With a sound, a black cloud, led by several huge black shadows, pierced the sky and quickly sprinkled on the city tower of Beihai County.
After a violent crash, the huge arrows of the crossbows were driven into the city wall, shaking the city wall of Beihai County. Fortunately, before Pei Caozhi and the others could come to their senses, a black cloud had already swooped down.
"Be careful, sir!" Pei Caozhi's generals hurriedly stepped forward to protect him with the shield in his hand; Those pro-guards also raised their huge shields; The officials who want to protect the castle towers.
Unexpectedly, this rain of arrows was urgent and dense, some of these guards were slow, and there were loopholes in some places. After a "popping" sound like the rain hitting the plantains, there was a miserable howl around, and blood stained the castle tower.
Pei Caozhi trembled and poked his head out from behind; He turned pale with fright at the asura field in front of him; Originally, I just stood on the tower of the city, and I felt the war from afar; This time the enemy's feathered arrows were actually in front of him; And some of his colleagues who were still alive just now turned into corpses in the blink of an eye, and he couldn't help but be afraid.
After three consecutive waves of attacks, Zhang Shigui stopped the archers' attacks. These rounds of attacks not only frightened the city, but even Kan Ling and Shi Danai's teams, and the Fengzi Brigade that had been stationed outside were also taken aback.
"Has our Liangshan's weapons developed to this point?" Kan Ling let out a sigh of relief and asked Zhang Shigui.
Zhang Shigui smiled slightly and said, "General Kan, this is just our conventional weapon. I heard that the institute had invented an artifact weapon called gunpowder; After launching, it was as strong as thunder. We have already tested it on the battlefield in Pyongyang, and we blew down the walls of Pyongyang City in one fell swoop. That's the real thing! ”
Kan Leng's face flushed a little with excitement, and he clenched his fists fiercely and said, "Okay!" That's great! With these weapons, who is still our opponent in Liangshan? Zhang Shigui said with a smile: "It should be said that with or without these weapons, no one is our Liangshan's opponent!" ”
Kan Ling laughed when he heard this: "Yes, Shigui is right! Okay, now Pei Caozhi's determination should have been made, let's go meet him for a while! Zhang Shigui agreed, and the three of them urged the horse to Beihai City.
"Pei Junshou, how are you thinking about it? For the sake of the innocent people in Manchu County, we hope that Pei Junshou will still comply with the will of heaven and switch to sincerity. ”
Pei Caozhi held on to the city tower, glanced around with his eyes, and saw that the Liangshan army was bright and bright, and they were all in high spirits, looking at their subordinates shrunk and hid their heads one by one, his eyes flickered and he couldn't help but sigh: "It's not that Pei is disloyal, it's really that God doesn't help me!" For the sake of the people of the city, open the city! ”
After saying that, Pei Caozhi seemed to be more than ten years old, he took off the hat on his head, threw it under the city and said: "Loyal ministers do not serve the second master, although Pei Caozhi surrenders, he will never do anything sorry for the Great Sui, and he will not be an official of Liangshan again." ”
Pei Caozhi's expression was down, and he walked down the city tower step by step and returned to his home. The remaining officials were blinded, but when they saw that Liang Shanyou had begun to urge, they shouted and ran down the city tower, scrambling to open the door.
Kan Ling and Zhang Shigui marched into the city, and then went to look for Pei Caozhi, only to know that he had gone home and closed his door in order to escape Liangshan's conscription.
Kan Ling frowned slightly, without Pei Caozhi's cooperation, their activities in Beihai would be half the effort; Zhang Shigui smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, leave this matter to me!" I heard that Pei Hongtai, the son of Pei Junshou, was the post of Beihai, and I asked him to be found; With Pei Gongzi in hand, I am afraid that Pei Junshou will not be able to come out to help. ”
Kan Ling was overjoyed when he heard this: "Okay! In this way, there is a lot of money, let's go, let's go to the Yamen to accept Beihai, and arrange someone to report to the chief manager! ”
When the good news came, Cheng Yanjin and Qin Qiong were extremely happy, and all the counties in Shandong were captured; The final puzzle pieces were also refined; They left some of them to garrison Qingzhou, and the rest went to Beihai to meet Kan Ling, Zhang Shigui and others.
When they came to Beihai, they happened to see a team coming from the opposite side, and it could be seen through the banner that it was the army of Niu Tong and Xiong Kuohai. Kan Leng, Zhang Shigui, Shi Danai and others in the city also came out; The three armies converged under the city of Beihai County.
Several Pegasus got together, and Cheng bit King Kong to get off the horse; Niu Tong shouted: "Wait! Then he flew off the horse and came to the front of Cheng Yanjin and said: "I am willing to lose the bet, we lose; I'll lead the steward and put it in the stirrups. ”
"Get out!" Cheng Biting Jin scolded with a smile, and the doppelganger dismounted: "Don't think I'm so fooled, Zhang Shigui stopped here for ten days and didn't attack the city, but ran to fight the local tyrants and divide the fields; Don't think I don't know what he wants to do? ”
Everyone laughed when they heard this, Kan Ling and Shi Danai looked at Zhang Shigui and nodded slightly. Zhang Shigui's face turned red and he hugged his fists and said: "The last general will make an assertion, please punish the chief manager!" ”
Cheng Yanjin patted Zhang Shigui on the shoulder and said, "Shigui, don't think about it, I heard that you took the lead in this battle and fought very well; Well done! I hope to see you do more in the future! ”
"Yes, Shigui understands, please rest assured!" Zhang Shigui bowed again; "Alright, let's all go into town! Let's talk about something when we get to the city. ”
