Chapter 202: Yongqiu (5)

Zhou Zan led the Yongqiu defenders to pour out.

This made Kong Sheng realize that even if the other party was not a fraud, he definitely had bad intentions. And although Zhou Zan's military horses held high the white flag, the soldiers secretly hid the sword soldiers, a trace of indifference flashed at the corner of Kong Sheng's mouth, and he suddenly looked around and lowered his voice: "Everyone, whether they surrender or not, we have to take action." Passing on my military order, the soldiers were divided into two routes, Li Biao and Li Hu led 500 people to gallop and attack, and strive to occupy Yongqiu City in the shortest possible time, and the three generals of the Lei clan, General Nan Yongnan, and others followed our whole army to assault, and when Zhou Zan's army and horses marched to less than a mile away from our army, they immediately led the army to attack, and fought a bloody battle with it, so as to gain time for Li Biao and Li Hu to break the city. “

Li Biao and Li Hu looked excited and promised in a low voice.

Originally, Zhou Zan led the crowd to surrender, even if it was a fraudulent surrender, he had to wait for the other party to deal with it when there was an unscrupulous movement, but Kong Sheng didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, he would plan it, and when he saw the other party pouring out, he simply prepared to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, and caught Zhou Zan off guard.

Kong Sheng's soldiers and horses marched forward into Lixu, secretly divided the troops into two ways, and quietly turned into two camps. As long as Kong Sheng gave an order, he launched a frontal attack all the way, and the other way directly took Yongqiu Empty City.

Zhou Zan's thousand-man team held a white flag and marched slowly with a nervous expression, and the flag of the Suiyang Army at the far end fluttered high and had already appeared in the field of vision.

Zhou Zan clenched the spear with both hands, but he pinched a cold sweat in his heart.

He led the crowd out of the city this time under the banner of surrendering, but he actually wanted to take the risk of pitting Kong Sheng, regardless of whether Kong Sheng had doubts or not. As long as he accepts surrender. Zhou Zan's subordinates had the opportunity to attack suddenly.

In Zhou Zan's opinion. As long as the subordinate and Kong Sheng's soldiers and horses fight at close range, those soldiers will definitely fight against the water, and it is not impossible to destroy Kong Sheng's army and horses.

And Zhou Zan, of course, also prepared for the worst. If he fails, he is also ready to give up Yongqiu, anyway, Yongqiu can't hold it at all, and leads the crowd to Shang Heng in Lu County.

Shang Heng had old friends with him, and Zhou Zan believed that Shang Heng could take in these people from him.

The march of Zhou Zan's military horses was very slow. Kong Sheng sat on his horse. Looking up, the brilliant sun hung high.

Seeing Zhou Zan's military horse coming on foot, less than 500 meters away from Kong Sheng's headquarters, the fluttering white flag was impressive. Kong Sheng suddenly raised Fang Tian's halberd, and coldly issued a military order to attack: "The whole army has it, rush and kill!" “

The soldiers under the command of Nan Yong suddenly beat drums to help the battle, Li Biao and Li Hu had been preparing for a long time, and immediately led a cavalry battalion of 500 people with the fierce Modao Army and Suiyang Cavalry as the team, brandishing Modao spears, galloping out, and going around to smash Huanglong.

And at the same time. The three brothers of Lei Tingjin led more than 500 infantry to shout and kill the heavens and the earth and rushed over, this time. Kong Sheng did not charge ahead, but led more than 100 people with Nan Yong to stand by.

Because most of the infantry battalions commanded by the three Lei brothers were soldiers under the command of Yang Chaozong and Ling Huchao, Kong Sheng was not at ease, and deliberately left more than 100 people from Nanyong as a pressure formation, ready to respond.

In fact, Kong Sheng was also a little worried.

Although the surrender time of these soldiers is short, it is impossible to return to their hearts at once, but in the military formation, no one has the time to hesitate to fight back, they passively or actively follow the generals to charge up, once the battle is opened, the swords and guns have no eyes, and they are all killed, who cares who follows whom?

Ordinary soldiers blindly obey orders, which is still different from generals.

Moreover, Nan Yong has been instilling the idea that the officers and soldiers will win in these soldiers, although he has just surrendered, but in the hearts of these soldiers, there is an innate sense of superiority and justice.

And even if a few people have different intentions, but with Nan Yong's "gendarmerie" behind them, no one dares to take half a step back.

All in all, Kong Sheng's military order was given suddenly, and the soldiers rushed to kill suddenly, and most people didn't have time to react, so they rushed forward with the large army, raised their butcher knives and waved them at their former comrades.

Kong Sheng's sudden action surprised Zhou Zan, and with such a short distance, he didn't have time to react at all. He didn't expect Kong Sheng to be so ruthless, ostensibly about to be surrendered, but he had already made up the idea of catching them all.

What kind of person is this, he doesn't act according to the rules of the two armies at all, this is simply ...... It's shameless! Zhou Zan was flustered and scolded Kong Sheng into a puddle of mud in his heart.

He was right. The so-called two armies do not fight each other, what two armies should fight against generals, Kong Sheng, as a traverser, does not care about this set at all, he pursues the legal line of postmodern pragmatism.

Caught off guard, Zhou Zan's men and horses were impacted by the Lei brothers' men and horses, and they immediately became chaotic and collapsed, and many Yongqiu troops turned around and fled.

Thunder rushed left and right, every swing of the spear in his hand could take a living life, he fought and shouted: "Put down your weapons, kneel and surrender, no prisoners of war will be killed!" “

"Zhou Zan, you and other traitors, don't get off your horse and surrender!" Lei Tingjun laughed wildly and drew his bow and arrows, and shot an arrow at Zhou Zan, who was surrounded by the chaotic army.

Zhou Zan panicked, turned his horse and fled back to Yongqiu, but was hit by Lei Tingjun's arrow in the shoulder socket, screamed, and almost fell to the ground.

In the chaos, many Yongqiu soldiers threw away their swords and guns in a panic and surrendered on their knees.

Seeing that the fire was coming, Kong Sheng immediately raised Fang Tian's halberd and ordered more than 100 of Nan Yong's men to attack.

On the right road, a distance of more than ten miles, for a well-trained cavalry like Li Biao and Li Hu, it took less than half an hour to arrive at the foot of Yongqiu City.

The city gate was opened, Li Biao and Li Hu were worried that there was an ambush in the city, he stopped the horse, ordered the headquarters to stand by, and then turned back to stare at the rear battlefield where the sound of killing shook the sky. After a little groaning, he also knew that the opportunity was fleeting, and if he didn't take Yongqiu quickly, there might be variables on Kong Sheng's side.

"Into town! There are rebels, slaughter the city! Li Biao gritted his teeth and roared.

Nan Yong galloped on horseback, rushed back and forth to kill, occasionally took arrows to draw bows, arrows rained out, and the middle one was either dead or injured.

Nan Yong shouted: "Yongqiu City is broken, you will not kneel and surrender again, there will be no mercy!" “

……

Seven or eight hundred Yongqiu troops knelt down on the ground under the black pressure. Holding swords and guns in hand, watching the former comrades-in-arms who were kneeling on the ground with a sad expression, many of the soldiers actually felt a certain sense of pride in their hearts.

Zhou Zan was injured and captured alive by Lei Tingjin, and more than three or two of the other generals died in the chaos. The others surrendered to Kong Sheng.

Kong Sheng sat on his horse. Holding a halberd painted by Fangtian. Glancing at Zhou Zan coldly, he said lightly: "Zhou Zan, what else do you have to say now?" “

Zhou praised his hand and scolded angrily: "Little thief, I am waiting to go out of the city and surrender, but you are making a deception to ambush me, it is simply shameless!" “

Kong Sheng sneered and said loudly: "Zhou Zan, you dare to make a big statement in front of your own officials, you led the Yongqiu army out of the nest and hid weapons. It's meant to be deceitful, do you think this official is easy to deceive? Come, show these rebels and traitors who have brought disaster to the country and the people, and show them to the public! “

Lei Tingjin looked solemn, and personally led his executioners to tie up Zhou Zan and other more than ten Yongqiu generals, and killed them on the spot in front of seven or eight hundred soldiers, and was bloody on the spot.

Kong Sheng secretly closed his eyes.

It's not that he's ruthless, it's that these subordinates are diehard loyalists under the command of Ling Fox Chao, and these people can't have true loyalty. If these people are not killed, these soldiers will not be able to be reorganized and turned into their own use.

Besides. These rebels have committed many crimes, and they have followed the Linghu tide to plunder the city and slaughter the people, and they have long been exhausted.

Yongqiu, who knelt on the ground, was frightened when he saw the former general being beheaded by the officers and soldiers. But they are the meat on the board, and they dare not and cannot resist.

At this point, the Yongqiu defenders were beheaded by Kong Sheng and more than 1,300 people were killed by the thieves.

This battle came abruptly and went quickly. Less than two hours before and after, at the moment of sunset, Kong Sheng slowly entered Yongqiu City with the whole army with the prisoners of war.

This was the first city that Kong Sheng had won in the real sense since he led the army to fight, and he had made a good start to the battle.

The night is low, and the Yongqiu County Ya Hall.

Kong Sheng sat in the hall, and the two rows were the three Lei brothers, Li Biao, Li Hu, Nanyong and other generals. Mu Changfeng sat on Kong Sheng's side, which was the position of Keqing.

Everyone smiled, and Nan Yong got up with a smile and reported: "My lord, after investigation, this time our army occupied Yongqiu, killed the thief Yang Chaozong, ordered Fox Chao, Yang Ning, Zhou Zan and other 26 people, and killed 1,300 people, more than 600 cattle and horses, a case of equipment, bows and arrows, 10,000 grains and grass, 10,000 carts of gold and silverware silk, and 100,000 yuan of money!" “

The loot was so abundant that Kong Sheng was unexpected. He smiled slightly: "Everyone, I didn't expect this to make Fox Chao worth a lot of money, he has amassed so much wealth, grain and grass, and now it is all ours." Passing the order, rewarding meritorious deeds, except for grain, grass, baggage, cattle and horses, gold and silver, etc., all the generals and soldiers will be rewarded, and the official will not take a penny! “

Nan Yong was shocked, this is a shocking wealth, Kong Sheng actually wants to reward all the soldiers, which is something that ordinary court officials and generals can't do. According to Nan Yong's understanding, that is, Zhang Xun can be so indifferent to wealth.

When the three brothers of Lei Tingjin, Li Biao and Li Hu heard this, they were all shocked, and they got up and bowed down with some emotion: "My lord, how can we dare to share the property like this?" “

Kong Sheng smiled slightly: "Even the good news depends on you and the soldiers to fight to the death, without your bloody battle, how can there be today's spoils." Therefore, you don't shirk, the official will say what he says, and he will never regret it, these things will be divided separately. But remember, everything should be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and the rewards should be fair, and don't give birth to right and wrong because of this! “

The crowd led away.

Looking at the backs of these people rushing away, Mu Changfeng got up with emotion and said with a smile: "Third brother, if you treat the soldiers so kindly, they will be dead to you in the future." After this battle, the military horses under your command have approached 2,000 people, and I think you can completely compete with Zhang Xun in Suiyang, so it is better for us to occupy Yongqiu and start anew. “

Kong Sheng sighed lightly: "Brother, don't want these things outside your body." My brother is not an outsider, and I may not fight against Zhang Xun, but I will definitely start a new business in the future. It's just that Yongqiu is not suitable, this place is too close to the main force of the rebels, once the rebels bring troops to attack, we can't hold it at all. “

"Brother, the grain and grass obtained by Yongqiu, as well as the grain stored in Ningling, I will give half of it to Suiyang Zhang Xun." As soon as Kong Sheng's words came out, Mu Changfeng said in surprise: "Third brother, now grain and grass are more valuable than gold, if you want to set up another door, you can't do without grain and grass, you distribute grain to Suiyang, it is not good for yourself." ”

Kong Sheng stood up, and his voice became a little long: "Brother, Suiyang can't be lost, if Suiyang City is broken, it will be useless for us to set up another door anywhere." Therefore, we have a relationship with Zhang Xun that is both prosperous and lossy, and I must support Zhang Xun to stick to Suiyang. The longer he persists, the more time he buys us.
