Chapter 290: The Battle of Yungo (2)

After Yang Qiu's envoy left, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang discussed in detail for a moment, thinking that with the advantage that his army now occupies, Yang Qiu has no reason to surrender by fraud at all, after all, the fluctuation of people's hearts in Yunwu City is no longer said by one person, almost all the soldiers who came to defect said so, so at such a moment, Yang Qiu will definitely not be willing to take risks, surrender to his own side, and then use tactics to launch an attack on his own side.

However, Zhuge Liang, who was cautious by nature, still decided to be cautious, for fear that it would be Yang Qiu's deception, so they decided that the soldiers under their command should still be on guard, if Yang Qiu did not tie up Ma Dai and surrendered out of the city, then immediately led the army to attack the city, presumably there must be other soldiers in the city as an internal response, even if it is a strong attack on Yunwu, it will definitely be able to conquer Yunwu City with a small loss, right?

At noon the next day, under the anticipation of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, a white flag was finally hung on the city, which indicated that the defenders of Yunwu City had announced their surrender, and because Ma Dai could not surrender to himself, it indicated that the sack should have been captured. After a while, the city gate was slowly opened, and then they saw that two generals were being tied up and slowly came to the front of the drawbridge, Liu Bei not far away could see clearly, one of the generals had a dark face and a thin body, and after Yan Xing pointed out, it was the Guanlong warlord Yang Qiu, and beside Yang Qiu, there was also a bound general, this general's face was angry, and he scolded Liu Bei and Yang Qiu.

Liu Bei saw at a glance that this scolding general was a traitor in his army, Ma Chao's brother Ma Dai!

I saw Yang Qiu slowly come forward, leaned over and said: "The last general Yang Qiu visited the Duke of Qin, today he lived up to yesterday's promise, he has captured Ma Dai alive, and controlled the military power in the city, and today he opened the city to surrender to the Duke of Qin." I also hope that Qin Gong will accept it and give my brothers a way to live. ”

When Liu Bei saw that Ma Dai was captured, he knew that this time Yang Qiu's surrender would not be fake. couldn't help but be overjoyed and helped Yang Qiu up. And personally untied Yang Qiu's shackles, and said with relief: "The general understands the righteousness, and surrenders the people, so that the people of Jincheng are spared a war disaster, which is really a benevolent act, the general has a merit to the society, how dare you not accept the general?" ”

Next, Liu Bei's expression was solemn, and he said, "Yang Qiu listens to the order." Lonely desire to show you as General Anxi, Jincheng Taishou, Yunwu Marquis, I hope that the general can live up to expectations and make meritorious contributions for the country and the people. ”

Yang Qiu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately thanked him.

At this time, he heard Ma Dai beside Yang Qiu snort coldly, and Liu Bei couldn't help laughing and said, "Ma Dai, I didn't expect us to meet in such a way, right?" When you betrayed Yu Gu, you never thought that one day you would still fall into Gu's hands, right? Rest assured, loneliness is a forgiving person. As a person who doesn't remember the old evils, as long as you are willing to sincerely belong to you, Lone will promise to spare your life. I don't know what you think? ”

I heard Ma Dai say coldly: "Thank you Qin Gong for your kindness, Ma Dai is a cheap life, and it is not worth Qin Gong's concern at all, you are willing to kill and kill, listen to Zun, since Ben Jiang was captured by Yang Qiu, a shameless traitor, he has no intention of living anymore." ”

But Liu Bei came to his side, smiled lightly, and then whispered, "How could Lone be willing to kill you?" You are Ma Chao's only relative. Lone wants to use you to deal with your brother Meng Qi. ”

After saying that, he ordered someone to escort Ma Dai to the back of the formation.

After escorting Ma Dai down, Liu Bei showed intimacy. ordered Yang Qiu to accompany him and enter the city with him.

At this time, Zhuge Liang suddenly felt an inexplicable worry. Although he didn't know what the reason was, he could sense that there was a faint murderous aura in the city, so he couldn't help but step forward to stop Liu Bei, and said with a smile: "Lord, although we have successfully entered Jincheng now, it is all the work of General Yan Xing and General Yang, but now General Yan's more than 20,000 soldiers have been fighting for many days and have never been together with their families, so we should let General Yan lead the army into the city first and reunite with their families earlier." ”

Liu Bei hurriedly smiled when he heard this: "What the military advisor said is very reasonable, they are all lonely and anxious to meet the villagers and elders in the city, and they are a little thoughtful, hehe, General Yan has worked hard all the way, and the soldiers under your command are even more longing for their relatives, so they should go into the city first to reunite with their families, General Yan, please lead your family members to enter the city first." ”

"Nuo, thank you Duke Chu for your understanding of the soldiers under my command, and the last general thanked Duke Chu on their behalf." In fact, what Yan Xing is thinking about now is precisely to lead the army into the city first, and now Liu Bei has named Yang Qiu as the lord of Jincheng, and he seems to have no hope of dominating Jincheng, so he must go straight to Han Sui's mansion when he just entered the city, and kill all his family, old and young, in order to avenge his crime of colluding with Liu Qi to kill his parents, of course, at the same time, he also has to teach Han Sui's daughter, that is, his wife who was taken away, Han Ying.

Therefore, Yan Xing almost did not hesitate or give in, and took the lead in leading the army into the city.

After Yan Xing, it was Zhang Fei's team, and the last was Liu Bei's army.

Seeing this scene, Yang Qiu couldn't help but secretly complain, because according to the previous plan, Yang Qiu and Liu Bei took the lead in entering the city, so that he could calmly realize the previous plan, and he could take advantage of the chaos to escape, but now I am afraid that things will not be so easy.

However, he thought about a series of measures to be close to the people and love the people after Liu Qi, the Duke of Chu, entered the city, so he resolutely made up his mind, even if he died this time, he would never regret it, because he was finally able to see the bright future of the Liangzhou region.

Just when Yang Qiu was in reverie, he suddenly saw the city gate in front of him slamming shut, and at this time he saw Liu Bei's face change greatly, and said in surprise: "What is the situation?" ”

Zhuge Liang also had a gloomy face, and sighed slowly: "Sure enough, there is a problem, it seems that the main general in this city is not Ma Dai, but Liu Qi." ”

"Strategist, what did you say?" Liu Bei was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked.

I saw Zhuge Liang smile bitterly and said: "Lord, please forgive Liang for miscalculation, alas, it's all because Liang is preconceived, just considering that Liu Qi's army is still in Lintao, but he missed a possibility, that is, Liu Qi's army rushed to Jincheng before us and calmly set up an ambush to deal with us." It is precisely because of this that the spies we sent out after arriving here have never discovered the whereabouts of Liu Qi's army, and as for Yang Qiu's defection and Ma Dai's capture, it must have been Liu Qi's plan,"

Liu Bei's face suddenly became gloomy, and he looked at Yang Qiu and said, "General Yang, is what the military advisor said true?" ”

Yang Qiu knew that he was going to die, so he couldn't help but say proudly: "Hehe, hehe, Liu Bei, you didn't expect that our Duke Chu would have led his troops to Jincheng a long time ago, right?" It's a pity that your vigilance is really high, otherwise I am afraid that you would die in the city today. Liu Bei, let's die. ”

Before Yang Qiu finished speaking, the spear in his hand stabbed directly at Liu Bei.

At this time, he only heard a light reprimand, and saw a general next to Liu Bei rushing with a gun, gently holding the spear in his hand, and then pulling out the sword from his waist and slashing at Yang Qiu in the face, he saw Yang Qiu scream, fell to the ground, and then died.

"My lord, what should we do?" That will kill Yang Qiu, and then asked eagerly.

Liu Bei pointed to the city gate and said to the general: "Shuzhi, immediately order someone to attack the city gate, Yan Xing's 20,000 cavalry may not be able to keep it, but there are still Yide and his 10,000 elite soldiers in the city, and we must not leave them alone." ”

"No." Chen Zhi did not hesitate at all, and immediately led the elite white-eared soldiers around him to attack the city gate, fortunately, they themselves came to attack the city, in order to deal with the stubborn resistance of the enemy, the army also brought a lot of siege tools, and now it is just to use.

In fact, Liu Bei's guess was good this time, although the number of Yan Xing's 20,000 cavalry in the city was numerous, it was quickly disintegrated by Liu Qi.

Yan Xing originally led 20,000 cavalry to enter the city first, ready to take the opportunity to take revenge, and by the way, ransack Han Sui's mansion and seize all kinds of property, but not long after entering the city, he suddenly saw a group of people emerging on the street not far away, and they shouted to Yan Xing's army: "Xianggong, Duke Chu is not kind to us, don't do foolish things." ”

"Son, Duke Chu is the lord of benevolence and righteousness, who loves the people like a son, and Yan Xing is cruel and unkind, don't die for him."

"Brother, the Duke of Chu gave our family twenty acres of land, and promised not to tax us for three years, if a Ming lord like this does not give allegiance, how can he be loyal to someone like Yan Xing?"

…….

All of a sudden, the cries were like a tide, tears fell like rain, and riots began to appear in Yan Xing's army, and many soldiers no longer cared about military discipline and ran to their families with tears.

Seeing this, Yan Xing shouted: "Don't run." But no one listened to him anymore, Yan Xing was furious and swung his spear and killed several soldiers, but not only did he not restrain the soldiers, but instead aroused the anger of all the soldiers and civilians, and many soldiers roared and surrounded Yan Xing and launched a siege against Yan Xing.

Yan Xing can be regarded as a rebel now, and even the personal soldiers around him don't listen to his orders, more than 20,000 elite cavalry, and in an instant, he is the only one who is fighting alone.

At this moment, I saw a rider appear in the crowd, rushing in his direction, and the nearby people and horses avoided one after another.

The horseman's riding skills on the horse were very exquisite, although he was in the crowd, he was like walking on the ground, and he didn't hurt a single person along the way, and he came to Yan Xing in an instant, and shouted: "Yan Xing, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, what else do you say if you betray your relatives today?" ”

Yan Xing's pupils shrank suddenly, and he said coldly: "Ma Chao, you are less proud, if it wasn't for the mercy of the general's subordinates back then, you would have died long ago, where can you still shout here?" But Ben is going to kill your parents and family, and play with your original and current wife, this life is worth it. ”

Ma Chao's eyes suddenly became congested, and he roared sharply: "Yan Xing, today is the day of my Ma Chao's revenge, this time I will definitely ask you to pay for your blood debt, take it." ”

After finishing speaking, Ma Chao brandished his spear and stabbed at a speed like wind and thunder. (To be continued)
